I'm sooo happy right now; I feel like I'm drunk, but I'm not. In fact, I haven't been drinking. I just got home from the swim team party,, yes, another one. I had so much fun!! I played pool like the whole night, and kicked major ass. I beat Luc 4 times, and Emma once. I only lost one game because I sank the 8 ball, but I can deal with that.
I got a lot of compliments tonight, and that made me feel soooo good. Not only did I get those compliments, but I noticed that my pants were literally falling off, and they're the new, tight ones! So that made me so much more happy. I actually made like a couple new friends, which is awesome. Sarah McDunaugh (sp??) and Emma Schweiker (also, sp??) are now on the top level of my cool people list after tonight. They both added me to their phones, which is neat. I had so much fun tonight, I can't even express how awesome tonight was.
I've also come to the conclusion that I say awesome a lot!! I never really noticed it until Alain pointed it out to me. He even said something about it in his diary,, he said "and as Crystal would say, 'awesome!" It made me laugh. I don't know if that's a good or a bad thing.
Over the past day I've found out that I am not only asthmatic, but I am also lactose intolerant. I had an asthma attack yesterday after gym class during Music Theory, and had to get a rescue inhaler from the Doctor. My mom and I have also discovered the fact that I'm lactose intolerant. I've had the suspicion for a while now, because I get really sick and bloated after eating, and I have dairy with almost every meal. But we've actually realized it now. Today, I had a cheese pizza, and I felt so bad all day. So I guess I should get tested for it, or maybe not. Maybe I'll just avoid it.
So yeah,, long night, and I'm really hyper. Alain's art exhibit was today (or yesterday, considering the time), and I'm really curious as to how it went! I'm so excited for him, and I know that he will be great! He's well on his way to stardome. I can't wait to talk to him tomorrow. I also can't wait till I go to France and see for myself all that he has accomplished.
I shall retire now, to my very welcoming bed.
True happiness arises, in the first place, from the enjoyment of one's self, and in the next, from the friendship and conversation of a few select companions.

Today has been the better of my week. Yesterday I stayed home to rest, to try and get better, but that didn't work very well. My brother and Liz are officially over, and she is being such a bitch. I never knew how much of a whore she was until now. I can't stand her!
Today I went to school with optimism, and found happiness. Chelsea brought me a magazine, "Vogue" from France. It's all in French! I love it! Then when I got home, I found the best surprise waiting for me in the mailbox; a letter from Alain! He sent a postcard of La Clayette, most beautiful, and some stickers which he designed. I love it all. It really was what I needed to brighten my week.
Things around here are going absolutely crazy, and I have no where to run for cover. I'm scared for the future of people I care for, and I'm worried about how it will all turn out. It's nice to have some relief today.

I can not express how much pain I am in right now. I don't want to write it all out right now, but I can say that there is a person who without knowing him much more than a week has hurt me more than any person could right now.
I need the comfort of another, but that can't come now.
