John's taking his test right now; he said that he felt ready for it. I hope that he does well!
After the test, a bunch of his classmates are going to a Korean BBQ Restaurant (John says that it's not really BBQ) to eat and do karaoke. John really wants to go, while I'm a bit more ... ambivalent.
First, by the end of the week I'm tired. I want to go home and get into some comfortable clothes and relax! Going out with a bunch of people I hardly know isn't very relaxing. Of course, then the arguement is that I won't get to know them if I stay home.
Another thing is the karaoke - I've never been before, but I know what it is, and I'm not sure I'd like it. Not sure why - but I get way too uptight about music. I don't know most of the music, and it really bothers me when music isn't sung properly. I looked up a list of the top 500 karaoke songs ... and I barely knew 7 of them well enough to be able to sing them. John and I were looking at some last night, and let's just say I didn't react well when John started singing horribly on purpose. I don't know why it grates so badly, but it drives me up a wall!
On top of that is the whole social anxiety deal - I've been prepping myself to go to Western Day on Saturday. That's an annual event that our church puts on. We went last year, and I had the worst attack of anxiety yet - it took everything in me to not collapse in tears when we arrived. I spent the entire time sitting quietly in a corner while John played flag football with the men. It wasn't fun.
I know I *ought* to go to both... karaoke tonight and western day tomorrow. I honestly don't want to go to either. But I promised John I'd go to at least one of them with him. I don't know what I'll do.
John will want to get out of the house and have fun this weekend; he always does after a test! So, we'll see what happens!
Happy Friday!
