There is so much to say, and I actually know where to start.

I WAS ACCEPTED. I'm an outbound exchange student. I will I knew where I was going to go, but I'll find out in January. I don't know what else to say about that...which is amazing....

In shadow of all this, homecoming is on October 11, and I finally have a date. There's just one problem.

His name is Tim, Tim Lyons. He's so awesome, he marches with me, and I really do like him. I could see myself and a future with him. That's certanly not the problem.

Tim said he wasn't thinking about the night homecoming was, and he's been planning to go downstate with his dad for about a year, and that's the weekend his dad wants to go. Now he's stuck. He has the choice to stay here and take me to homecoming or to go downstate, missing homecoming completely and not taking me. I feel really bad, and so does he. He knows I rejected Linton to go with him, a senior I really like no less, which makes it even harder for him.

I wonder who he'll pick. Valerie says he'll stay here to be with me. Valerie is now going with Rick, the guy who was hitting on me at the party. We're doubling and going out to dinner before going to the dance.

Please stay here Tim....

I'm kind of caught up in the whole 'is he my boyfriend?' thing.... Well is he?! Who cares. Even if he doesn't go, I'll have the satisfaction of knowing he chose me to go with.
