Brian "not so" Luckey

One of my first friends when I moved to my new home was Brian Luckey. He was a great guy. He died recently of leukemia. It just came out of nowhere, and in a matter of weeks, he was dead. I will always miss him, but I know he wouldn't want us to be down about him going, he probably didn't really care he was dying. Ha ha! He was probably happy to go, means he didn't have to go out to the world and live on his own. Here's to you then! Brian "not so" Luckey, rest in peace.

Scenes From An 80's Dance

So I was in my schools production of scenes from an 80's dance. I wasn't too fond of it, but it turned out good. Apparently it was the biggest production the school's done in years. If so, then wow. My elementary school put on a bigger production! Ha ha! It was fun though, every play has it's own good memories.

I played Riley, a romantically awkward teenage boy with a crush on Shannon Butler, the girl of his dreams. He writes a love letter he intends to give to her at the big school dance. Unfortunately, he loses it at the dance, and all sorts of 80's shenanigans ensue.

I also play Fender Chrysanthemum, the Axel Rose impersonator who sings Sweet Child of Mine.

After being told that sophomores could go and get lunch at the food court I thought that it would be a good idea to get a hamburger with some friends. I got to the food court and saw several other sophomores eating there dispelling any doubts I had. I got my sandwich and started walking back to school. I saw my biology teacher Mr. Hays driving by and thinking everything to be right as rain I waved happily at him. I ate my lunch and went to class only to be called to the office during seminar. I though nothing of it thinking they wanted to talk about things getting stolen around the school (everybody is getting called in to talk about it). Instead they said I was a truant and suspended me for a day. I got home and tried to explain, but no, mom wanted blood… er… punishment. She said I would do a bunch of work around the house and then go “shudder” shopping with her. I knew I was doomed.

All in all though, it turned out to pretty fun. Got new shades, ate cheap lobster, and saw a beheaded shark with several dead bloody fish, you know, the works.
