I'm awakening me.

Yesterday was a shit-day. I literally spent all day trying not to cry. It seemed like anything that could go wrong did, and if it hadn't been for Evan, it probably wouldn't have gotten any better.
Let's see...
#1. I was driving to school at around... 7? I had to drive Candice's snacks to her school, so I did. I drove to school, and went into the chorus room to find out if Mr. Johnson had any news about the musical. Collete and Lauren come in and start talking about "What happened to your car!! Your bumper is coming off!" So we go down to my car, and the plastic piece that goes over the bumper on the right side of the car was UNDER the bumper. Like... twisted under it. I have no idea how this happened. But I started freaking out. The FIRST thing I did was call Evan. So the second he woke up he heard me crying and bitching about my bumper being fucked up and me not having the money to fix it, etc. He calmed me down and told me he would come to check it out and for me to just go ahead and go to class. Which I did.
#2. I got to chorus and Mr. Johnson announced we weren't doing "The Music Man" for our school's production this year. Which kinda of pissed me off because Alex and I told him we weren't going to have enough men try out for the part, and he wouldn't listen to us. So anyway, we changed it to a musical called "Into the Woods." It's really quite interesting, and really cute. I have a big part. "The Baker's Wife", which I'm excited about, even though she cheats on her husband. Well, we had auditions for two days. Tuesday, and Wednesday for "The Music Man", and since Lauren didn't want to try out for a big part, Mr. Johnson told her she could just audition on Wednesday, because she couldn't on Tuesday. Well, Wednesday rolls around and he decided we weren't doing "The Music Man", so when she asked him about her auditioning for a part he started getting onto her telling her she didn't deserve any sympathy because she didn't audition Tuesday (even though he told her to do it on Wednesday) and that he has already set the roles. So she gets to 4th period REALLY depressed because she felt like he was mad at her. I went to practice after school and started to talk to him about how upset she was because she felt like he was angry, but he was in a really bad mood and started being really harsh towards me. "She can get over it, and so can you. I don't need you in this musical, I can replace you. I'M the director, not you, and I'll say what I want to who I want. You can just leave right now if you have anything to say about it."
Ouch. Mr. Johnson had NEVER said ANYTHING harsh to me before, and I felt like I was about to cry. But after practice he called me into his office and laid his head down on the desk and started CRYING. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to say ANYTHING like that to you. We DO need you in this musical, if you leave, it ends. My 4th period is just so....horrible. It puts me in a bad mood." So we both start crying and he hugs me and says he loved me and that was that.

So some good does come from bad. Lauren texted me this morning (I didn't go to school. Woke up late and felt like shit, so... yeah.) and told me that Mr. Johnson talked to her about how I talked to him yesterday and he was going to give her a part in the play.
A few weeks ago I signed my mom and Ed up for some free sweepstakes stuff at the mall, and they won! They have a cruise for themselves to the Bahama's whenever they feel like going, and then a cruise for 3 to a hotel in Florida right outside Disney World whenever they feel like going, and a cruise to Daytona Beach, Florida whenever they feel like going. Since I'M the one who
signed up for the cruise, they're giving me and Evan the trip to Daytona for my "Graduation Present". So I get to go when I want to Daytona Beach. Hooray!
