compliments

"you don't know how fast you really are" - cross country captain, who can run 3.2 miles in less than 19 minutes.

"your typing is awesome!" - a teacher who i respect very much

"gary fan is one of the big players in original oratory this year" - someone who pays attention to the oratory field and analyzes it probably as much as i do

today i had a pretty awesome day. not all of these compliments were given to me today [first one was, second one was yesterday, and third one was saturday, i believe] but.. i feel like they stand out in a way. they kinda give you that extra "push" you need to make you feel better that day, or do better in the competition, or the meet, or the race, or just in life.

i ran a REALLY good time in cross-country today, apparently it's one of my best. i don't know the time for sure, but i felt really good after the race and thought it was one of my better runs.

the PSAT wasn't terribly hard; but it was harder than the SAT, ironic, eh? i thought i did well, and hopefully well enough to qualify. if not, well then.. 2400 on the SAT is fine with me too ;-]

today mrs. bradley also said that we were gonna have another biology test this quarter which is EFFING AWESOME! gives me another chance to improve, and i'm gonna take this chance and run with it. we have a quiz tomorrow which will hopefully help too.. maybe i can get an A on it for once.

DBSK's new album is one of the best things ever.

today's a happy day. i feel splendid.
