Yay! I'll get it from you later.
But I do feel like I've said too much. Are you sure you don't have anything to say? ...Well, if that's the case and I'm not annoying you, then I guess I have not choice but talk on, eh?
If you say so. The other day I had my Thespian initiation. It was very... interesting. But all my humiliation is past and I'm now an official Thespian. ;D I get to bully next year's initiates! Wheeee!

No no, I can't deprive you of Tom any longer. Here you go. *hands Willow the black leather diary*
Oh yeah, I remember you saying something about the Thespian group. Congrats!! I wish I were more of a performer. It seems so fun to be able to go on stage. Hehe, what humiliation did you have to go through?! It wasn't too bad, right? And did you wear the toga and everything??

-gasps and hugs the diary- Aw, thanks for bringing us together again, Silver!
Maybe you could... If you really want to that is. Believe me, I get nervous when I audition and when I first step on to the stage. Most everyone does. But as you go on, you start to relax and feeling the energy of the audience is wonderful. Anyway, what did I have to go through, you ask? There was the proposing to random people (guys and girls alike), sizzling like bacon, shaking what my dear mom gave me, doing interpretive dances, singing "Happy Birthday" Marilyn Monroe style, telling teaches and the policeman just how much we love them, telling a shoe how lovely it looks............
...... Stripping off my toga...... to music.....
It wasn't as bad as you might think.

Hahaha that does sound pretty bad! I definitely would never want to do that stuff. I'm sure it was all very fun for you guys, though. ;D

Oh of course it was fun. It was a blast! Bloody hilarious too. Did I mention that I had to strip off my toga? Well, I had my normal clothes underneath... so it was fine. But anyway, watching the others do it was very entertaining. Oh yes, A friend of mine did it to classical music and another to the Star Wars... Teehee. So fun to watch.
-cough- -twiddles thumbs-
Eh... yeah.

That sounds pretty cool! I wouldn't want to do it myself; I think watching others do it would be enough for me. Oh! We had a carnival for Homecoming tonight and I helped run the Gladiator Fights!! Lol!! It was so funny to watch! ;D I would never go up there myself, though. Those sticks are pretty hard, even with all the padding we put on them!
Hehe, I took some pictures while I was "managing."

Oh neat!!! That looks so fun! Actually, I think I remember having something like this in the Renaissance fair we had in my middle school... This was in my 7th grade class, I believe. Yup.
Nice gym, by the way. And our Homecoming is next week! ;D I can't wait to watch the parade and football game!

Really? You did that in seventh grade? We had enough trouble getting the school to allow it, and this is high school. It went pretty well, but I don't know how the teachers feel about it. Some people didn't really pay attention to the rules...and those things can really hurt, too.
Our Homecoming was today, actually, but I don't really care about the games and parades. I choose to show my school spirit in other ways.

Yeah, we did. There was also jousting… on wheelbarrows…but I didn’t do that because I was having too much fun with the bubbles. ;D And I simply loved the archery. Archery is one of those sports where I get really bruised, yet feel wonderful about it all. There is padding that you can wear on your arm, but when I tried it, I got really bad scores… so I stopped. We used traditional long bows! I love them! Ok, enough about middle school.
Last year’s parade was canceled due to rain. All the floats were ruined and the students worked so hard on them too. The football game was also in the rain. Teehee… the Homecoming court had to stand out in it with only a few umbrellas. The Homecoming king was the Thespian president! It was NOT a popularity contest last year and I hope it’s the same for this year. Is it possible to have too much school spirit? I just came back from the band exhibition and the Fremont Band was amazing…

Ooooo, long bow archery!! That sounds so Robin Hood-y! ;D I want to try that! Where'd you guys find traditional long bows, anyways? Don't tell me someone just happened to have one at home. We have archery at our school, too, but I've never done it. I doubt it's with long bows, probably just the modern kind.
Our Homecoming Court was announced on Friday! I'm so happy because the Queen is one of the nicest people ever! She's so cute and sweet and funny!! But the Court in general is a popularity contest.
You can't have too much school spirit, so go you! ;D I think it's great that you support your school so much. I don't have the time or patience to do stuff to show spirit all the time, but I have my moments.

We did archery in PE so the school purchased the targets, padding, bows and arrows. ((In PE, we actually did a Robin Hood tournament thingy ;D)) The bows are red… and you have to set them up yourselves, which is kind of hard. I still love them though. Heehee. I even started liking the feeling of the string snap against my arm. Some times the feathers of the arrow give you a bit of a cut on your finger, but that doesn’t hurt at all. You really should try it some time, Silver.
You had a good Queen? That’s great! Kind of like how I felt about our King last year. He is the nicest, funniest guy. Homecoming is this week! I’m going to help make the sophomore float on Wednesday and I watched the freshmen rally today. It wasn’t bad. And this year it doesn’t look like the rain is going to ruin everything.
And thanks. I’ll keep supporting my school because it deserves to be recognized. Like I’ve mentioned before, the other high schools in our district kind of looks down on us as the… “ghetto” school… -Cough-

Ok, it's been more than two weeks so I'm safe.
Anyway, if you see this, Silver... Why don't we restart this diary thing, eh? I was thinking that we could both be Tom this time and have other people spill out their problems to us. It doesn't have to be completely role playing... if you know what I mean.

Wow, I don't even remember writing that.
Hahaha...how long ago did we completely stop doing the whole diary thing? Yeah, I'm no good at RPs. Besides, 2-person RPs aren't all that exciting, huh? Well, I guess ours wasn't that bad. Our ending just really sucked. Hmm, do you want to restart it? You can go ahead and be Tom if you'd like, since you love him so much anyways. ;D And then other people can come and talk to you. You can make it a complete RP or it can actually be like a sinister advice giver.

;D Sinister advice giver... -evil chuckle- That sounds good to me. Now we just have to lower people to our little diary. Like I said, we can both be Tom. You know, fill in for each other when the other is not around. Sounds good?
Hmmm... To catch my first victim... -goes into Riddle mode-

Sure, why not? I don't think I'm a very good Tom, though. You'd probably be better, you know, since you like him so much. ;D But we can share the duty, just in case.
