Yeah, I left really pissed off, but we won anyways. That's always a good thing.
Bleh. It's a new day, so I feel better now.

I sort of mentioned my cat was dieing in the Game Time section, well now I'll just announce it straight out. My cat has a benign tumor in her ear that's messing with her inner ear. The vet predicts she will soon have seizures as it grows. I don't think she can open her mouth almost at all anymore, and she occasionally has problems remaining upright, even in a sitting position. We're going to have to put her down... Soon, I think now.

In slightly better news, MIT's website ate two of my essays and I have to do them again, MIT has done this before. And the deadline is Saturday.

In slightly better news, the news reporter finally came to interview the engineering team. Which I just learned about today, which means I missed mock trial and am probably going to be excluded like I have been three years in a row because they schedule at the same time engineering and band. Also it forced me to move my "retention" I got for coming in late three times with proper excuses but no parent note because I thought it wouldn't happen again. I could've honestly slipped into class a half a minute late and my teacher wouldn't have minded but I hadn't moved past the attendance window fast enough, and attendance always makes you way later than you were.

I'm really sorry to hear all that stuff's happening to you Poik, especially around the same time. On the news of bad topics, Highway 97 is closed for the next month(s) due to a pending rockslide that is going to fill apparently over 2000 truckloads of rock and debris. Not a very good time for anyone living off campus (thankfully not me, but I have friends that are terrified of the winter detours).

Boy do I have one heck of a rant today.

There's this guy at my school who likes me but I do not like him, so he decides to try his luck at impressing me. He becomes annoying so I have to ask him How a jester is like a hunter to make him think and leave me alone. The reason I did that is because the creep is your classic moronic sportsplayer and does not think very often.a few days later he claims he got the answer and said that if I didn't anser a sports question as his riddle he wouldn't answer me, I refused to answer him point blank and then left me alone for a bit, then at lunch he said I have a crush on him, Then I told him that avoding someone means that they don't like them, yesterday he decided to sing to me with a rap song. I hate rap and told him I'd rather kick him while wearing spiked greaves than date him. He then said I'd never ba as good as him and kept saying it while I tried to talk back. When He left I told a guy who saw the whole thing what I was trying to tell the creep: "Why would I want to be as good as a moron?"
This has been going on for a few weeks, and I'm out of Ideas an how to get him to leave me alone, so any ideas?

Ignore him entirely. Chances are he'll eventually get bored and go away.

Josiah, don't you know that morons are immune to that stratagy? Aura, your situation sounds similar to the one I was in(the idiots said I was their friend), so I'm sure that the solution will be the same. Go to an administrator. Tell them what's bothering you. Chances are that they'll put a stop to his actions or dramaticly lessen it.

I know this sounds redundant and/or cliche by now, but you should seriously consider hitting him in his weak point...for massive damage.

It's kinda hard to think a lady likes you when said lady put you in a whole world of hurt and forces you to fall to the floor and curl up in a fetal position.

At my school the admin supports the sports players and is out to get everyone who does not play sports.

Best idea yet, but I could get expelled.

Then be as cold as possible to him, if he comes close just say "Excuse me." and leave, speaking in the meanest tone you can do.

If that still doesn't work, file in for harassment.
