Yesterday I went to this event called "Alice's Summerthing" with a friend, Kate, who just came back from Davis. The famous Andrew Allen, Matt Nathanson, Michelle Branch, Parachute, and my personal favourite, OneRepublic performed. Most of the event was perfect - I got to see all the artists real close up, the weather was fantastic, and I even got to touch Will Anderson and Ryan Tedder, hahaha! But there honestly were a few things that disappointed me a bit.
One, some of the members of Parachute seemed drunk, and it wasn't very appealing. Don't get me wrong - they still played some pretty awesome music, but it was just.... rather strange. Ryan Tedder also kept trying to be funny when he was referring to certain things about different parts of the audience (phrases which I don't feel like repeating), but I could definitely sense that some people found some of his words a bit offensive. So I'm pretty disappointed in that. However, I still extremely admire Ryan Tedder and OneRepublic and their music, so I'm trying real hard to let this disappointment go.
Today was also the first day of De Anza's Summer quarter. I'm taking an English class and the professor seems pretty organized - a characteristic I very much like in teachers. So I hope this class will be good and mentally revitalizing. There are also a few fellow Monta Vista classmates in this English class, but I don't know any of them well enough to talk to them. Hopefully I can still have a chance to talk to any one of my classmates.

Once in a while, I wish that I was a more sentimental and sensitive person that I already am. People are able to stick to things with such dedicated hearts, while I only stick to the things I like doing just... occasionally. For example, music and photograph. Those two things are two of my most favourite pastimes - yet I can get real bored of them as well.
So then I try to become the person I really want to be, and then I begin to hear again of the constant bickering of those two people - which then reminds me of how I have become the person I already am (which is, in fact, someone whom I hope nobody ever aspires to be). Though I may be strongly ignorant - it's not accidental, it basically was a slow, freezing process of the heart. I hope one day someone or something may bring it back to life again.
I finally got to see Christian today, too! And I will be going to a church camp with Sarah and Melanie. And I'm really jealous that Grace gets to go to Switzerland! But also kind of sad.
So as you have noticed, it still hasn't hit me that we're all high school graduates.
