b) a nice body if you like nerdy glasses, oily hair, and a zitty smile.
c) a high voice

Hell yeah! I'm top dog! ...Well, kinda... I'm finally respected! ...Not really...
My brain is finally being acknowledged! ...In a zombie-like way...
high school is like World War Z
everyday dipping, lifeless, dense baseball players walk... Step drag spit
Step drag spit
over to me and demand their homework!
"Yo! You best give me my homework! Oh, and next time...sound smart, but not too smart!"

Summer before Senior Year
I have three life changing events to journal about:
1) I got contacts to help my image this year.
2) I also got an ear piercing to make me look thug.
3) I got a new video game called: Aliens Vs. Predator... EXTINCTION
I have played for T-Minus 12 hours, Captain, and my orders are to precede until I have exterminated the enemy.
December 20, 2006 Entry 64
I once had a teacher that told me, "The girl you date your junior year of college will be the girl you marry."
and I know he was right
This semester I had a chemistry lab, and in there I met the girl from my teacher's story.
I walked into the classroom and there she was. A petite, green-eyed, red-haired angel.
she's quirky, fun, smart, crazy,
enthusiastic, hilarious,
overwhelmingly beautiful, and downright awe-inspiring.
Her name incorporates all these qualities and more: Lilly
A couple days into the class, when we were in the middle of a very stressful lab, she turned to me and said:
"I wish I was cosine, and you were sine, because together
we'd be one!
Sorry, I'm a math major...and I wanted to impress you."
You impressed me the first day I saw you.
I'm currently on a plane with Lilly and we are on the way to her parents' house.

At 6:27 today, Lilly gave birth to a big bundle of joy named Caleb
and a radiant angel named Claire.
My life is complete.
I can now know that my whole life has prepared me for this moment.
The moment I stand next to my magnificent wife...
...and we each hold a fourth of ourselves.
