   My friends!
Because I have a free period right now, and connections with someone who sometimes sneaks me into an unused computer lab, I am currently sitting in the dark with very little to do. So, I have decided to tell you about three of my friends- Fluffy, Howl, and Poof. Of course those aren't their real names. While Fluffy knows that he's Fluffy, the others don't know that I've given them pseudonyms.

Anyway, Fluffy is basically my berry best friend. Yes, I know I said berry. To continue, he is the only one who knows about my otaku-ness, so our conversations often revolve around anime, since he is something of an otaku himelf. We are trying to build a collective manga library of sorts. However, this is somewhat dificult, because a good 80% or so of my personal library is shoujo, stuff like Tokyo Mew Mew and Cardcaptor Sakura. I do read some shounen, but not much. I am a huge fan of Rave Master tho(is that considered shounen?).
We've been friends since the end of ixth grade (which is about four and a half years, which just really shocked me), and we've both always been something of outcasts. Fluffy is really awesome and supportive and sweet, and he is just about the coolest friend ever.

I met Howl near the end of 9th grade (about a year and a half ago. She's a very nice girl, who has an obsession with vampires. She also is starting to like anime, which makes it somewhat harded to feign ignorance (what I do when people start talking about anime). Perhaps if her interest continues to grow, I'll let her in on my little secret. Anyway, Howl can sometimes be sad, and I don't know what to say to cheer her up. She has a very difficult relationship with her mother, and I really try to be there for her. We share a liking for all things mystical, however hers is geared mor towards the horrific, while mine is more towards the magical (I LOVE magic!). I hope to get to know her better.

Last for today is Poof, a strange girl I met at the beginning of 10th grade (one year ago). Poof can get over excited, has man hobbies, and tries to have many friends. I have taken numerous classes with her, and I feel that she always wants to have friends with her. She is more popular than my other friends. Now, the only thing I have against popular people is that they tend to exclude unpopular people, and this has happened to me with Poof. I sent her no postcards from Spain. This is because in late July, we made plans to do something one afternoon. She promised to call THAT AFTERNOON to confirm. And I her from her nearly one MONTH later, only when I bother to call her. She never said goodbye either. So she'll live without postcards. I enjoy spending short periods of time with her, but she's lost my trust. She'll have to earn it back.

Whatever. I'm doing well n school so far. I have four free periods a week, plus two electives that each meet twice a week. I'm taking Creative Writing and Dance, plus English, History, Chemistry, Precalculus, and NO LANGUAGE! I am free from the hold this school's spanish teachers have had over me! Yay!

Well, enough for now, I'm sure you'r tired of reading, and I have no more to write right now. So I'm off to OB. I really like it here. I can speak anonymously. I love it.

Ciao!
