After tomorrow...

All the weeks leading up to the excitement will finally draw to a close.

All the nights spent after school, the hands we dirtied, the paint we wasted, the people we bothered, the food we ate, and the memories we made-

They will be relived, revived, and among all the drunk and horny teenagers grinding their way through the lineup of cheap radio hits, we will reminisce of the progressive creation of this fantastical microcosm. We will hold ourselves accountable for whatever outcome tomorrow night will undergo, because the lies we've told and the classes we skipped were soley meant for its welfare...

Well not really, since we mostly slacked off and gossiped and ate, but it still better be the bestest Winter Ball ever ever. How could you not feel responsible for something you've been using as your excuse to hang out for the past couple weeks? I even had to stop myself a couple times from referring to it as "my dance". =/

Tomorrow is the date of the Winter Ball. I have to go shop for the food, set up decorations, glue on those goddamn gondolas, inflate a bunch of balloons, get ready, take a shitload of pictures, and dance my ass off. I also have to brag to all my friends about what a good job I did on setting all the stuff up. I have to. There is no other way for me to justify myself after all that "work" I did.

After tomorrow, I'll probably feel like I have nothing left to live for. Maybe for replying to Facebook comments since there'll be tens of photos posted up from the night before. But Winter Ball gave me the experience of being useful. After tomorrow, I'll no longer have an excuse for not doing my homework, and Chambers will no longer be nice to me in spite of my obvious over-eating. Life will seem dull and listless, with no more prospects to look foward to. As much as I am overjoyed in anticipation for tomorrow, I am dreading whatever will follow.

On a slightly lighter note, there is one thing I'm sort of looking foward to that follows Winter Ball. I'm gonna go donate blood on Monday and I really really hope it will be an adventure! =D I wonder if they allow cameras in the clinic?
