whee so i graduated today. the ceremony was nice. gilsy's speech was very nice. miguel's speech was crap on a stick. but i cried during it. mostly because the guy sitting next to me was crying too and a bunch of other people had weepy sniffles. gah.
i saw vanessa, marcus, lisa, henna, karla for 3.5 seconds, jackie, giovanni, lora, juan, gayvis, gina and a few other people. i'm gonna miss them. well most of them. hee. i wont miss karla because she and i are prolly gonna still be hanging out when we're fricken 80. i wont miss giovanni's bugging me during asl ALL. THE. TIME! eesh i'mma get all weepy again.
its raining again. its been raining for three fricken days. its terrible. we're under a flash flood watch and crap. scary.
eesh so anyway, i'm officially a Barbara Goleman Senior High School Graduate. makes me feel good. :)
now, onto college, where my new journey awaits. :)

ok so karla made her own unofficial graduation song Fear, by sarah mclachlan, since our graduation song is kinda poopy. so i'm gonna follow her lead and pick my own unofficial graduation song:

Sing
by: Travis

Baby, you've been going so crazy
Lately, nothing seems to be going right
Solo, why do you have to get so low
You're so… You've been waiting in the sun too long

(chorus)
But if you sing, sing
sing, sing, sing, sing
For the love you bring won't mean a thing
Unless you sing, sing, sing, sing

Colder, crying over your shoulder
Hold her, and tell her everythings gonna be fine
Surely, you've been going too early
Hurry, cause no one's gonna be stopped

(chorus)
But if you sing, sing
sing, sing, sing, sing
For the love you bring won't mean a thing
Unless you sing, sing, sing, sing

Baby, there's something going on today
But I say nothing, nothing, nothing,
Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing

its all happening!

eesh i'm such a happy camper. only two more days of school and then i graduate on thursday.
no more pencils, no more books, no more teachers dirty looks.
eesh i cannot wait! i'm soooo ready for college.
you know, its strange. i always look at the end of the year and laugh at the kids who start to cry because theyre leaving their friends. for me its always been "hi, geek? you're gonna see them again dude. its not like theyre fricken going anywhere. now hush up!"
but yeah. its different now. obviously because i really wont see some [...most] of these people again. juan is going off to the army. and yeah everyone was joking around today when he was all "i'm gonna die for you people!" but.. even though it seems unlikely, it may really happen. its just so strange. obviously, there are some people who i dont ever, ever wanna see after graduation (erm.. have you been reading my blog lately? hello.), but there are some people who ive come to know and like in the past four years who i wont ever see again. and thats kinda sad.
yeah. i think maybe i will cry at graduation. :)
yeah today i took my SAT prep and Debate finals. I felt kinda bad for ms. cerra. she was all trying to be nice at the end and say nice stuff to us, but everyone kind of ignored her. not that i blame them, i dont like her much.
debate was fun as usual. we were allowed to do our final in.. pairs. hah! yes. dude i was just asking gayvis the questions and she was telling us the answers. it was pretty nifty. lora, of course, did the final on her own honor. she needs to take advantage of gayvis's chill dude. :)
after the final, anabelle, daimi and i went walking around. we got some lunch and brought it back to gayvis's class. twas fun dude. i'mma miss those geeks. :)
after class, robin and elibet attacked me and hugged me. it was odd. i still hold that robin is a woman. :)
i'm gonna miss my debate class. it was the funnest, dude. heeh and the club too.
*sniff* now i'm getting all weepy. eesh.

*whispers*
karla gives alex "moist sleeps"!!!!!!!
hee!! squee!!



hah we had our end of the year debate party today. it was nice. i still didnt do anything yasser told me to do. heeh he said he's never seen such disobedience. aah. just part of being celisse. :)
we all got certificates. i got a framed one for Excellence in Student Congress. AND I GOT A GAVEL!!! I HAVE ALWAYS WANTED A GAVEL!! ITS SO COOL! it says my name on it and everything! i was so proud. :) heeeee!
so anyway, after a bit of terrorizing ms davis and hanging out at the party, karla (who is not even in debate club, mind you.) and i went down to get our cap and gowns. we were there for at least an hour in line. while i was in line, i called selena. AND I ACTUALLY REACHED HER! so yes, we spoke for a bit but it was very hard to hear her because everyone in line was being loud. she wants to come over sometime. karla was yelling in the background "OOH ME TOO ME TOO!!!" so maybe we'll put that together after the cruise. that would be cooooooool. shes going to FAU though. poop. she was gonna go to FIU, but i dont know what happened. Her sister goes to school in Hawaii. .
heeh anyway, when i got home i did all my haughty "I'M GRADUATING!!!! YOU'RE NOT!!!! YOU SUUUUUCK!!!" while i was all dressed up in my cap and gown and all that stuff.
it was major fun.
my dogs were glaring at me.
BWAHAHAHHHHHAAA!
hee.

oh no, i'm regressing...

10

I act like I'm 10.
This test was brought to you by James - Part of the David and James phenomenon. Take it here.




Listening To: Some old Offspring song on Devon's Y100 (heeh i found a link on their site)

her y100 is way cooler than our y100. sheez.

anyway. lah i'm bored like whoa. my back is kinda hurting today. i think because since i didnt have to do anything in 4th hour and we were supposed to be quiet, i slept the entire hour. sleeping for an entire hour in a desk cant possibly be good for your back. .
SANTERIA! woo ok sorry. i luff that song.
and i hate this song.. tool sucks like whoa. see, thats what i hate about radio. you cant kick the DJ's in the head when they start playing crap.
why do people feel the need to post half-naked (or fully-naked in some cases) pictures of themselves on the internet? are they stupid by nature or did they work really hard at it? sheez.
i'm so bored. i need to talk to my mummy. about nothing in particular, i just need to.
i dont want to die in seven months.
i dont want to die in eight months.
i dont want to die at all darnit.
i hope all the wars and stuff stop. i wish people wouldnt be so stupid and just realize that yeah, we all have different beliefs and different ways of living our lives, but dude. we all live on the same planet and we cant go around ruining everything. my mommy said that next time the terrorists attack, it will most likely be by biological warfare. i just dont understand. that will kill people everywhere. its not like it will only be confined to this one area or something. it'll spread and everyone will die. whats the point? i just dont get it. it'll be like in the stand. everyone will die minus like.. a hundredth of the population of the world, and then another 25% of those people will die just from the shock of everyone else dying. and then whoever is left will split in two: the good guys, and the bad guys. plain and simple. and then they'll end up killing eachother too. whats the point? all these people in the middle east are all fighting over a peice of land. what they dont understand is if everyone is dead, no one will be around to enjoy the land, regardless of who "wins the war."
ugh. i wish it would all stop.



Tuesday, June 04, 2002

yeah? well youre ugly! hah!

...sorry. just felt the need to say that. hee!
10 days, people, TEN DAYS!!!

and i'm addicted to the Hackers soundtrack. hah i hadnt listened to it in about 793 years and now i've developed this obsession with it. and with the movie again. hee. i love that movie. i think i'll watch it again later tonight like whoa! hah :)

ok. marcus is scary and decided that he was my boyfriend this afternoon. frightening. he sat on my lap and attacked me and stupid karla took a picture and i was SCARED!!!! hee. hes a geek. and alex is a woman.
alex is 80% woman to fit with karla's being 20% lesbian. HAH! those losers.

voodoo people, voodoo!

Listening to: "Halcyon + On + On" by Orbital

i feel good today. i dont know why. nothing extraordinary happened today. in fact, it was a pretty poop day. but.. i dont know. right now i just feel good. maybe its the music i'm listening to.
i feel like everythings ending, but the whole world is starting. i dont know. i just feel like in just a week and a half more, i can leave all of this behind and start new. start brand new. a clean slate just for me, and i wont ever have to think about the past again.
i feel very good today.
the weather right now is just perfect. its overcast. not too hot and not too cold. it feels "breezy" in my room, but thats just the fan. but either way, its nice. its like, if i close my eyes, i wont be here anymore. i'll be... at some deserted beach in some far off island or something. all alone. and i wont have to think about anything. because the breeze would be perfect and it would be overcast.
not too hot, and not too cold.
i feel good today.

The Time: May 31, 2002 8pm - 12pm
The Place: The Loews Miami Beach Hotel
The Event: Senior Prom, 2002

woo i had a great time. i said i would, and i did. teehee.
yeah the place was BEEEEAAAUUUTIFULLLLL! Homecoming was nice, but they had to decorate it with crap little lanterns and things, this place didnt need decorating. it was sooooo nice. yeah anyway, i got there with karla at the same time that her date (alex. *guffaw, guffaw*) got there with a bunch of other people in their limo. hah. limo, schmimo. no wonder they came in a limo, they stayed at the betsy fricken ross. :)
so anyway, prom was great. i sat at a table with the weird boys but spent most of my time with lisa and karen. yeah. i didnt take many pictures but i'm going to abduct my friends pictures and scan them :) whee! yes. anyway. erm everyone looked great. karen was wearing this dress that was almost identical to one i was thisclose to buying. my dress color was VERY popular. and beige was also very popular. there were a few girls there that shouldnt have even bothered wearing dresses, they were practically naked anyway.
The girl and boy i voted for prom queen and king didnt win. i dont know the king but the queen was this girl that i dont like very much. i mean, i dont HATE her, but yeah shes kinda not cool. cool enough to be prom queen though, i guess. :)
yeah so the dinner was.. kinda freaky. they gave us this damb alien-lookin salad thing that fricken ATTACKED me! i swear it did, and dressing got spattered on my dress but yeah no one noticed. then we had chicken and vegetables. the chicken and mashed potatoes were pretty good. yeah. it was a sit-down dinner. homecoming was like a buffet thing. this was nicer and the food was better. even if the salad was really an alien.
yeah so i had fun. i danced. well.. i erm.. did the celisse-moving-around-pretending-to-know-what-shes-doing thing, which i consider to be dancing heh. :)
karla made out with alex a lot. sheez.
yeah anyway, after prom, karen and karla and i went up to the room and changed and met william and he took us to their freaky hotel. and a mime (MIMEpride!!!!) gave us roses....for tips. so in essence, he SOLD us roses, but it was still pretty nifty. my rose matched my dress. but i wasnt wearing my dress so it didnt matter much. its the principle of it!
yeah the elevators at that hotel are really really tiny and cant hold more than four people and i swear, you ride in it and you think you'll be stuck in it forever and ever. i liked the stairs. members of my family have the tendency to get stuck in elevator cars. stairs are much nicer.
yes so after a bit of watching william (wussy wussy) do some "wrestling" (thats what THEY called it. i call it a love embrace) a bunch of other people showed up and we left. yeah we went to the beach. it was really dark and i thought someone was gonna kill us, but there were like twelve of us so yeah. heh. erm.. the two couples walked along the beach and it was so sappy i thought i'd barf up the alien salad that i didnt even eat. heh. so i just sat down in the sand and watched the waves. it was pretty. it reminded me of the lyric in that incubus song, "wish you were here". "...I lay my head onto the sand. / The sky resembles a backlit canopy with holes punched in it. / I'm counting ufo's. / I signal them with my lighter / and in this moment i am happy, happy..."
it was... nice.
ok then after that, we just walked around. we found marcus and christina at the gas station and we decided to get something to eat. we found this geeky little hole-in-the-wall pizza place. it was cheap though, and really really good. and well worth the five bux we paid. so we walked back to the betsy ross with our pizzas in hand. marcus and christina got a room there. and then we just hung around till like 4:15am or something. then we went back to the loews and slept a bit.
yeah. i came home early today because karla wanted to hang out with them today. i did too, but i really wanted to go in the pool at the loews, but they were all at the betsy ross and i really didnt wanna see that pool. yeah heh.
so all in all, my senior prom was... fun. yes. fun. and no one ruined it. :)
i'm glad i went.

things to remember:
-the confusion over my name. "huh? whos alice?"
-the alien salad that attacked me. stupid salad.
-the bathroom! that place was fricken cool!
-karla's reaction when karen and i told her we took pictures of her making out with alex. haha. "WHAT?!?!??!!!"
-the MIME!
-that freaky elevator. enough said
-sitting on the beach
