goodbye april

Isn't it sad how much we forget?
You know it as all still in there,
but the mental workout of recalling what happened is one heck of a chore.

April 1st: April Fools Day- i got home late. my friend had been waiting. i thought she left. i called her cell phone. "where are you? i am so sorry it took longer at the store than i thought it would!" trying to defend my position, yet, knowing i proabably wouldn't have waited either. she told me i was a bitch for making her wait, and that i was a shitty friend. not really but thats how i felt. You can only imagine the releif i felt when i saw her walk up from the side of my house, on her cell phone. "APRIL FOOLS! I LOVE YOU HAILEY! hahah, i cannot BELIEVE you though i was serious!" i just love that one day you get to fool your encounters and make them smile. my mom thought i got a speeding ticket. she was very pleased to hear, i had not.

April 7th: Dollys Birthday-we made carrot cake and it was a beutiful rainy, spring day. it felt like Washington. I have never been to Washington, but it was what i would imagine it to be like. lush and green. green ferns, trees, hills. there was literally a green glow to the fog as you walked through it. the carrot cake had too much pineapple, so it didn't set right. tasted good though. teddy got his first beater with frosting on it. he was the happiest little munchkin in the world. holding onto his prize for dear life. we lit the candles and sang happy birthday. it felt like last year. i tried to compare years. what was different, what was the same. my 'same' list was much bigger. actually, the birthdays were almost identical. how fun. we start traditions without even realizing it. dolly is 21 now.

April 11th: weird

April 13: I started school again- how strange! it's been almost a month since then! i love being back in school. i love being around people all day long. people i love. people who make me laugh, and smile. people who make me feel like a teenager again. i have missed this. my high school years have passed me by. i need to make the best of them; quickly. i want to say thank you tori woodworth, racheal, jake butts, greg hopkins, kim poppleton, ben hecht, devyn, shelby, jessicca, cassie, larrissa, sean miser, chris craghead, etc. i love stupid teenagers. they are so dumb and so much fun. i need to enjoy this. i am going to mature and grow old without even realizing it.

April 18th: Prom Night-Waited in line for 2 hours-JUST FOR PICTURES! dancing was fun though. and being with people i love. kickback at my house was alright. went to the ridge with greg, after we grabbed some grub from safeway. smoked a few bowls. drank some. played beer pong with john, josh, shelby, jessicca, nessa, and greg. passed out to john puking. my mom is still suspicious.

April 28th: nice day
