9/26/24 friends with drummer & natural beauty

started off the day pretty normal. in pd 1 we started the social media project. i didn't do anything in class cause i wanted to do it in adobe illustrator which i obviously couldnt use on the chromebooks

in english we went over the sheet we were doing yesterday. regents prep. i graded myself 11/14 correct or something like that

band went pretty normal but midway through i told max he should play drums and the boy drummer (his name is edwin) overheard and told him to hop on and he hopped on an did nothing and he told me to hop on too and i played a basic drum beat. i was playing the kick drum in alternating quarter notes and eighth notes and surprisingly did it well despite it being my first time doing that and also my first time playing drums in a while. after that we kinda just started talking all 3 of us. hes a freshman which was kinda surprising but kinda not. he added me on saturn later in the day and i added him back. also im starting to think the girl drummer doesnt like me lol. i asked her one time if we had hw for chem and she was like "um idk im new" kinda with additude idk maybe im going insane. i also bump into her on accident a lot lmao not on purpose. she seems really nice though so idk

orchestra was the same as usual. had another convo with the girl but i dont remember what it was about

mr brandi was here today for health and we did the same shit as usual. booooring

when i got to ensemble me and carlos were standing outside of the door waiting for someone with a chocolate box cuz i was hungry. dan and evelyn pulled up and dan had this really cool old digital camera which we took some pictures once. awesome shit. theres also some kid in guitar ensemble who brings his fender strat to school and hes lowkey better than me and carlos combined. he sits on the other side of the room so idk. we're both soloing over the song that we're doing in class right now. i did better though ngl. also found a way to use the rhythm switch on my jazzmaster with specific settings on my amp to basically turn it into a dist pedal

chilled with ahmed and dan in lunch. we took more pictures and just talked about random shit

we had a lab in chem and my table consisted of me adriana and two random girls in my class. i talked to the two girls about the lab and we actually got along really well. the convos we had about the work n shit were actually really funny and i liked talking to them a lot. hopefully we work together next thursday,, idk

in geometry we went over reflecting triangles over lines without a grid and i was lowkey confused as fuck but got it down studying afterschool

we had a test in global which i cheated on cuz gavin sent me the answers. i could've done it myself ngl but it was nice to be sure. the crq was so fucking ughsdjs my adhd kicks in at the worst times dude. i had no fucking motivation to do it at all dude

i was waiting for joey at the train station and she pulled up. she made eye contact with me and walked past me towards the garbage container. when she sat there she looked at me with the look of "wtf why u just standing there". i thought she was going to one of her friends or something but she kinda has no friends. we were sitting together on the D train and she pulls out a vape and starts smoking. she offers me a hit and im like no and i told her about my experiences with smoking in middle school. i don't really care if someone smokes, as long as they know i won't be doing it. i ask her how her tattoo is doing and it's healed with visible progress. when we take the N train she's telling me about how she wants to be skinnier and how she looks "fake" in her instagram stories. i tell her that she looks fine without makeup/filters and that literally every girl ik looks better without makeup than with makeup. she asks me "even me?" and i reply "yes of course" and she starts blushing. i told her that part of the reason why i dated winnie (my ex she used to be friends with) is because of how she was confident in her natural look and didn't wear makeup. she tells me that she changed a lot after we broke up. she wears makeup now and has lost all that confidence. i changed her the same way jennifer changed me. i wonder if jen and jessie changed the same way after we stopped talking. i tell her to text me later and shes like "why" and im like "this is an interesting conversation" and we both said bye to eachother and she got off the train. she texted me later in the day sending some fake electric guitar video of someone playing a tiktok audio and shes like "omg can u play this" and i tell her "thats fake af but yea" and she just said "oh"

dude honors classes are ughh i spent like two hours on homework today. geometry, spent like an hour on adobe illustrator designing my social media project, and also had to read some pages of dreaming in cuban. no writing but we're gonna have a mini two question open response 'quiz' on the pages. kinda nervous but i think i got it. i think i will read the pages on the D train to school tomorrow

taking my melatonin at 10:44. goodnigh
