Thanks for your advice, guys!
Ezra, normally I'm like you and I find it very romantic when the guy asks the girl-- it's the cutest thing in the world, especially around the time when they're advertising for dances (at least at South it is. I can't speak for other schools).
However, I think I'm going to take Avery's advice this time. I think I'll ask him tomorrow :) I'm kind of excited. I'm getting an adrenaline rush just thinking about it...
I'll tell you how it goes!
Thanks again!

P.S. Do you guys watch American Idol?

NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
DO NOT TAKE AVERY'S ADVICE!!!
(No offense Avery...)
I may sound old-fashioned, but you should NEVER ask a boy out first!!!!!!!!!! NEVER!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'd go the way of dropping not-so-subtle hints. Or wait till he asks you.
Also, don't worry about the dream thing- it probably is just some deeply buried fears that are surfacing in your subconscious in the form of dreams.
That's all :)

Hello!
Well, to start off with you're dream, I personally don't know much about dreams, but I would
think that if you had dreams about killing people you know would be that you were keeping
something bottled up and you wanted to release it (I guess for you killing :))
But if that didn't help, I recommend going to here! It's always helped me with my wacked up
dreams!
#1. First of all, I think that the person you were talking to was a big jerk. Why go to your sister
to tell you to stop talking? Who does that? But anyway, I think that you should subtly start
talking about something else and if the other person goes back to the first subject, then it's
safe to say that they want to keep talking about that certain thing.
#2. I think that girls today have a tendency (not that I'm saying you do) to wait to be asked while
it's a really big deal to ask anyone out. Regardless of what gender you are. I think that you should
ask him and it might just be that he can't go, and didn't want to get your hopes up, or the fact that
he's spacing out (a lot... haha) But anyway, go ahead and ask him!
~Avery, peace!

Jude the Questioneer.
Hello Ezra and Avery!
I waited too long to write this to remember exactly what happened in the dreams, but they involved the brutal deaths of Jack, my dad, and some lady that I didn't know. It's not that I desire these events to happen-- that would be twisted, and if that ever happens, please send me through the post office to a mental institution in bubble wrap (bubble wrap is crucial. That'll keep me happy for a while until I get to the institution). I don't know how my brain came up with these dreams. Are either one of you knowledgeable about dream stuff?
I have some other questions for you guys too.
1) How do you tell someone that you're ready to change the subject in a conversation? I was talking to one of my sister's friends on Facebook and we got to (passively) talking about ways to get to sleep (because she has insomnia or just doesn't like to sleep). In order for me to stop talking to her, she had to go to Shannon and ask her to ask me to stop talking to her. I didn't really know what else to say to her, so I kept going with the last topic we had started. None of my suggestions were pleasing to her and I really wanted to help. How would you handle a situation like that?
2) So there's this dance coming up and I kind of want to go, but I haven't been asked yet. Tickets for it went on sale today, but the huge poster has been up for a couple weeks at least. Should I wait for him to ask me or ask him myself?
It's so different asking advice! I'm terrible at coming up with questions...
Avery, it is your turn! Ezra, I'll talk to you hopefully sometime soon and Avery, I'll see you tomorrow!

Who am I?
Today, I had a personality test (at school, so it's official) and I'd love to share it!
Understanding you, AVERY
People like you are usually imaginative, creative, and sensitive. You are a private person, and take your time to get to know people and to let others get to know you. You probably have a small group of close and trusted friends, and are generally cautious about jumping into new social situations. People describe you as thoughtful and empathetic, and you will try hard to please the people you care about. Outwardly quiet, you have strong feelings and opinions, especially about the way people should treat one another. You are very committed to your beliefs so you may have trouble backing down or compromising your ideals just to get other peoples' approval. You can be somewhat of a perfectionist. People sometimes disappoint you and since it's hard for you to stay objective, you may often get your feelings hurt.
You may love to fantasize about the future, and probably enjoy creative activities like writing, reading, music, and art. You tend to be organized, efficient, and inventive about getting your work done, and are a responsible and respectful person. Since you like to have a plan of action, you may get flustered by sudden changes and need plenty of time to adjust to or prepare for new experiences. You like spending time alone and while you may like doing things with your good friends, you are typically not the one who initiates social activities. Since you are a good listener, people trust you and are often amazed by the original insights you have about others. You naturally look below the surface to understand the deeper meaning in every experience and interaction.
I'd say I'd have to agree!

Ke$ha Looked Like a Man Last Night...
Well, she did... I was with Jack's family and she was performing in New York, but when we looked at her, she looked too masculine to be the Ke$ha that I've seen on the CD covers in music stores...
I did some Google searching for you.
I guess "Fear of Driving" is a form of Agoraphobia, which is a fear of open spaces. I didn't think that that made sense though, because you said that you're afraid of going more than 10 miles an hour and getting into an accident. Plus, you talk about running away to Florida or some other warm climate all the time, so open spaces doesn't match up...
So I went to a couple message boards because there were other people that are scared of driving like you are. Most of them were new drivers. Some of the advice that other people gave was to stick to non-busy roads as long as you can while you're still practicing. That way you can get practice moving at a slow pace and you can get used to what you're supposed to be doing. Slowly but surely, you'll convince yourself that it's okay to go a little faster and use a more busier road.
As for cell phone use, I couldn't agree more! I absolutely hate it when I see the drivers of cars using their phones. I always give them dirty looks as I pass by them (when I'm not driving, that is). It's just like, "Thanks, I now see how your priorities are aligned... business and chatting above babies and other people..."
Same for drunk driving! I can only think of one instance where I might have been in the presence of a drunk driver. My family and I were coming home from...somewhere... that's beside the point. Any way, we were coming home on the highway and we noticed this guy weaving in and out of traffic, going really fast and going over the dividing line like nobody's business. It finally came to a point where he drove up next to a guy and started to veer over into his lane, almost crashing into him. Luckily, that guy was awake enough to slow down, honk, and get out of that maniac's way. It was really scary. Mom called 911 and we were asked to follow him as closely as we dared and to stay on the phone. We did that, and later, they told us we could stop following him and go home. That was still one of the scariest things though...
Ezra, you don't have to be afraid of driving. You've taken the class, you did a little behind the wheel... you know what you're doing and you're in control. Maybe next time you go out and practice, you could bring a CD of the Grateful Dead or The Eagles to play while you're driving and maybe that'll put your mind at ease and you'll realize that driving isn't as scary as you thought. It'll get better :)

Happy New Year, guys!!! Did you make it to midnight? What are your resolutions, if you have any?
Avery, it was so much fun hanging out with you a few days ago! All of those games of life, and Cloverfield, and albinism, and horoscopes... it was great fun! We should do that again sometime.
Okay, this is a really long post, so I'll stop here, because this is all I really wanted to say. So Happy New Year again, and I'll see you... well, Avery, I'll see you Monday because school starts, but I will talk to you both pretty soon hopefully.
