Today at school there was no school. Not technically, which I was incredibly happy about. Of course I did no homework last night, so I have to do it all tonight, and I am just not really feeling it right now. I'm not in the homework mood, I guess you could say.
Today at school it was Arts Fest, which boiled down to the basic idea is a day where our school gets to prove how alternative it is. Our school is based in science and math, or I'm pretty sure it is, because that's the vibe I've been getting from it my whole life. So today was a day where the school became 'artsy'. It was pretty goddam artsy.
It's all student run, and you sign up for the five activities you want...which are mostly food based. Unfortunately I didn't get any food activities, which was pretty disappointing, because I had really been looking forward to sushi making (now I'm happy I didn't take that because the sushi fell apart in the soy sauce and looked nasty).
I'm just gonna say it like this: I think I'm a pretty chill kid. Like not chill as in cool, but I'm chill because I don't give a shit about a lot of things. Usually I don't do much self judgement, but I've come to this realization today.
I took a Henna workshop, and none of my friends had ever done henna before, and being such a chill person I let them put the paste/paint stuff on my arm. I didn't know then that the stuff lasts three weeks or something awful like that. One kid couldn't get the paint out of the tube so she squeezed really hard and a giant blob got on my arm. Instead of taking the paint off, she smeared it on my arm, which was pretty upsetting at first. So then other people put their initials and their name on my arm, to complete the picture. At first it actually looked like I had wiped my ass with my arm and there were shit stains all over it, because it was naaassstty.
At another workshop, face painting, I made another bad decision. Everyone was doing tribal stripes and stuff on other peoples faces, so I did it to my friend. It looked kinda cool actually, so when she asked to do it to my face I was expecting at least a slight degree of coolness. Of course she just dotted and smeared random stuff on my face.
And then more stuff got added, including turquoise eyebrows, after I asked someone to fix what the other kid did.
Not a good decision.
I looked like the color wheel had eaten too many skittles and then threw up on my face. It was kind of disturbing actually.
