I got my new guitar and here's the proof...

Only problem is, she lacks a name...
My first guitar's name is Layla, so that doesn't qualify, but I could use suggestions, PLEASE COMMENT. Haha, talk to you later.

A really big descision

Hey everybody.

My parents finally caved and are gonna let me switch schools if i want to, heres the thing; I can't decide. I could use some help, but please be serious and not give me stuff like we'll miss you, or the like. Heres a complete overview of my situation...

I currently go to SP private school, and there is nothing that I hate more in the known universe. Most of the people there despise me. I've been practically begging to leave for several years now, and I have got one opportunity, that if I pass up, I will never get again. I'm constantly picked on at SP, and the people there are for the most part awful. On the upside, I do have a few really good friends that I would really regret leaving behind. My cross-country team is awesome this year (consisting of both overall skill, and a lot of my friends). Academic challenge is completely unique at SP (we don't care about the outcome unlike other schools) and is a lot of fun (my friends). SP sounds better on a college application than a public school, but I would probably excel more at the public school.

Some lists...
Why I should stay
good for college
friends
I don't know if I'll hate the other school more
XC
I hate change
German class
I will lose absolutely all of the little respect I am given by my class
My family spent $600 on a varsity jacket, and class ring, which is non-refundable

Why I should go
I hate SP
The people there treat me like I'm lower than dirt for the most part
I have higher potential to excel
I can broaden my horizons
I can make new friends
I can start over to some degree, and not be the weird kid, just the new kid
I'd get to see my dad during the day
I can rekindle old friendships
I might be happier

Those are the facts of the case, and they are undisputed. (A few good men is an awesome movie...)

So, please give me your input, but keep in mind this isn't a vote, and its highly important.

Thank you.

"No Leaf Clover"

Ok, I got the song "No Leaf Clover" on my playlist, by Metallica S&M...

Well it really describes a lot of my day today.

And I quote...

"Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel, was just a freight train coming your way."

I believe that says it all, except for one thing, and that is the reason. The reason is simple, today was the first day of cross-country practice, and guess how many miles they threw at me? 10!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We are training for a 3 mile race, and in 3 years I have never been forced to do such a thing. Sadly I didn't even get to finish, because I managed to get one heck of a cut on the back of my ankle... I was forced to finish on a bike, by the coach. Not to say I'm not grateful for the bike, its just the fact that it was mortifying.

Well, I guess tomorrow's a new day (this one with a wonderful new invention called medical tape), so maybe I can redeem myself.

Guitar Hero has been defeated!!!!!

WOO HOO!!!! I just beat the first Guitar Hero on expert. It gave me a free ax guitar, and its pretty cool. I'm still working on GH2, and 80's edition, but I am sure to beat them soon enough, well at least 80's edition. I still have Electric Eye, Seventeen, and Play with me in the 80's edition. In GH2 I still have Hangar 18, Beast and the Harlot, Institutionalized, and Freebird. Its safe to say that 2 is gonna be a bit harder.
