today is day one of the recognition day practices. i got up at 6AM for the first time. the last time being the last day school. i felt sleepy and groggy for most of the practice. we didn't get much done today. the teachers can't seem to stick to one particular method of walking up the stage and getting our certificates. they seemed very unprepared. hopefully things get better tomorrow.

ysabel lost her wallet during lunch. we never got it back. hopefully it turns up tomorrow. there was some drama with my mom and sister as to how i'm supposed to get home. apparently, neither of them care if i get home or not. they're both too wrapped up in their own affairs to worry about mine. i am so lucky to have someone like belay who is willing to give me a ride home. hmm. maybe she deserves a gift. just to let her know i'm not taking her kindness for granted. a cupcake, perhaps? krispy kreme donuts? i know she'd appreciate something edible.

i guess my radical haircut shocked people for about two seconds. i got used to it. so did they. :) i'm not mcloving it but it's fine until it grows longer and i can go back to being my old self. :D

i'm so tired and sleepy. so i guss that's all for now. bye!
