Sorry for abandoning this blog (I've been doing that a lot, haven't I?). Let's start with halloween. Mo and I finished our Kikyo costume just in time (she did most of the work though ^_^;;;). It was a bit of a hassle to put on but it looked really nice. We didn't have time to add in the ribbon, though, and we'll be doing that sometime before this weekend. I went trick or treating at Sara's house...there were hardly any people there. The pants were extremely long and VERY hard to walk in. After that, I spent the weekend at a pathfinder's thing with Sara. Lotsa fun.
Then I forgot everything that happened after that. >.< D'oh.
Anyway...The day before the day before yesterday (09), I said 'hi' to Alec on MSN and he actually said something (pretty abnormal because he usually ignores me. I wonder why?).

alec says:
bye bye andrea
Nat and Ari were joking and making a big deal out of it. Like, okay...he said bye. O_o
Anyway, Friday (i remember it being yesterday, though), on the way to music, Alec dropped his folder thing on the floor (clutz. >.<). I kinda sorta picked it up for him, and Nat was giving me...this look. O_o I don't really know what it is.
In science (the same day), we (Sara, Jenn and I) were looking at the doves at the back of the class. Alec was next to me and asked, "Isn't he in the same spot as last class?". He pointed to the little lizard. I leaned over to look at it and said it was cute, and he joked that maybe we should completely close the glass so it can't breathe. We continued to look at the doves and I guess I thought Alec left...Then he suddenly grabbed my shoulders (I freaked out, man. He scared me half to death x_x) screaming, "I TOUCHED IT!" (the lizard). He laughed and walked back to his seat. Sara raised her eyebrows at me suggestively (O_O not that suggestively)
"Oooooh!" she said. (First thought: No wonder she likes monkeys. 9_9)
"What?" I asked.
"You know what I mean." She raised her eyebrows again. "You like Alec!"
Luckily, no one else was looking at the birds (I hope so, anyway). I was sort of surprised that she said that and was disappointed that my trying-to-act-unobvious thing wasn't working. So I tried to make it better by telling her to shut up. Go me. @_@
In French (yesterday) we were reading a text about some game (sandurangam. O_o!) and Alec started talking to me. He had absolutely no (Slef: Freakin) idea where we were, and somehow I ended up leaning over and flipping through his book for him (not only is he a clutz, he's lazy too >.<). Limoges was going on and on about how when he was a kid (once, sometime very long ago...XD) he was playing battleship with his friend and when the teacher asked him a question he wasn't paying attention...Then he said it's still a "fashionable" thing to do because a lot of people are doing it right now (somehow I caught all of this while helping Alec find his place @_@). Then he said, "Comme Alec et, euh...."
Oh. My. God. I was hoping that maybe he'd forget my name. Normally I'd be a little bit upset if someone forgot my name (coughlunchKevincough. STOP CALLING ME CHINESE!!! O_O) but this time it would've been okay. But NOOOOO, he just had to remember.
"Et Andrea, tiens. [?] Alec et Andrea qui parle de...shubanovven mishkabibble."
Err, well he didn't really say that last part but you get my point. He was trying to "hint" at something. I felt so embarassed.
After that, on the way back from French (maybe this was the day BEFORE yesterday. -_-;) he dropped his binder (again. -_-;). I didn't notice at first (XD), but I almost stepped on his book so I picked it up for him. He said, "Thanks Andrea" and then Nat said, "Aww! That's so sweet!"
I hit her an the arm and told her to shut up.
After school Nat was talking about that on MSN, and she said that after she made her, erm, comment, Alec was smiling at her. I made a lifting-one-eyebrow smiley. Either she was lying or he was laughing at her/me. Or he really was smiling...
Today in Math (first period), he was telling me that Mr. Pellegrino reminded him of Tondino because he was so boring. I thought that his baldness reminded me of Limoges but didn't say anything. (Oh yeah, the day before yesterday or possibly the day before that in Math, I gave him the chibi pic that I drew of Tidus surfing. I'm guessing he liked it but he said that people don't wear jackets when they surf. -_-;)
At recess, I remembered that I had a (Slef: Stupid) journal to write for music (which was next). I was trying to write as fast as I could when Alec came to my locker.
"Oh, you didn't do your homework, Andrea," he said (naggingly). "And now I'm bothering you!" (Or, err, distracting me, or something. O_O His point was that now that he was bothering me I wouldn't finish in time)
"Ahhh! Stop stressing me out," I laughed, and then he left.
Nothing extremely interesting happened in music, or english either. Lang teaches a LANGuage class. Lang, lang. Wierd.
Today's french class was changed to a history class because we had a history test. I hadn't studied at all for it and had to draw a map in about 10 minutes, because he was checking them and I remembered that I hadn't done it. Somehow I slipped by with an 8/10 which is fine by me. The test was mostly multiple choice, but even then I don't think I did too well.
Anyway, at the beginning of class Limoges was taking a long time to hand out the exams. "Take out a looseleaf, and if you don't have any borrow some," he told us. I didn't have any. I saw Nathan handing out some sheets to Nidhusha and Kaarthick, so I felt sort of bad if I asked him for some. I asked Alec for some instead.
"Hey, can I have a looseleaf? Please?"
"Maybe," he said (teasingly? Was he teasing me? O_o). He put his binder away, so I figured he wouldn't give me one. I turned back to my desk and then suddenly Nathan handed me one (he rolled his eyes, or something like that). 'Can't these people just get their own stuff for once?' he must've been thinking.
"Here ya go," Alec said, and put a looseleaf on my desk. I looked at the two sheets I now had and (Slef: Stupidly) gave his back.
"No, it's ok. Nathan gave me one."
[slaps slef] Stupid me.
Slef: [red mark on forehead] ;_; Owww.
Oops. [slaps SELF] Stupid me.
Slef: That's better.
Anyway, after class, I was talking to Alec as he was getting his stuff from his desk (I can't remember who said what first). On the way out, he asked if I had C for most of my answers. I said yes and that at first I thought that maybe all my answers were wrong. I can't remember if he said something after that (maybe that one conversation lasted until we were near out lockers), but then I grumbled something about having to show Limoges a test I forgot to sign, told Jennifer to save a seat for me on the bus and bolted. Yes bolted. I guess maybe him talking to me made me feel intimidated. Or maybe I just really wanted to leave. Or maybe I didn't think he'd ever want to talk to me and I was scared...
In any case, I grabbed all my stuff and started to get to Limoges class. I passed by Alec's locker and saw him picking up his bag. I debated over whether or not I should say bye but after a second of quick reasoning I decided not to. I went to see Limoges etc. And then that was it.

P.S.: Rikku! I wanna see your new template. ^_^
