Basil the Jerk's Extreme Jerky Jerk-ness

I hate Basil. I really do. (if you're not sure who I'm talking about, please refer to the codename list somewhere on the side)
So, I sit at my science table with him, Frenchy, and Genne. Genne's usually really upbeat and loud, but sometimes she's in a really bad mood and doesn't want to talk to anyone, so she just puts her head in her arms and stays there for the entire science class and pretty much every other class I'm assuming.
Whenever she does this in science, Basil and Frenchy sing a song that goes "Genne. Is grumpy. She is very grumpy." and then they repeat that until she responds in some way.
So today, Basil went into his daily routine of mocking me about Leo, which annoys the hell out of me because Leo sits at the table next to us. But today he got a better idea. He started singing the 'Genne' song, but with different lyrics. Before I type out the lyrics, may I just say that until then I was staring at nothing but my vocab packet, which was due next class and which I hadn't finished.
It went like this: "Misty. Is in love. She is staring at Leo." And they repeated that over and over, loud enough for everyone to hear. Even Leo. I was so freaking mortified!
To get him to stop singing before I maimed him, I told him that I no longer liked Leo, that it ended last year. I swore. I never, ever swear anything unless it's completely true. So I just broke my unspoken golden rule right there. He didn't believe me, of course, since he doesn't know my code of honor. He asked his name, an I said he doesn't go to this school. You see, the first boy I thought of was Josh, from Violet's baseball game (if you've read any of my other entries). And it's true that he doesn't go to my school.
Basil asked for his name again, but both he and Josh are my friends on Facebook, and I didn't even want to think about what would happen if Basil figured that out, so I offered him the firstletter of his name instead, which was 'J'.
Unfortunately, Connor and Frenchy caught onto the song, and I was harassed with it in Language A (by Connor and Basil) and outside of French class (by the three of them).
Afterward, I completely avoided Leo, which was a little hard since his locker is right below mine. Whenever he was at his locker, I would go visit someone else's locker until he was gone. I know he heard the song, because he looked straight at me when it started, but I pretended that there was something extremely engrossing on the ceiling. Then in French, class ended ten minutes before dismissal, so we were all just chatting around the room, and I went to talk to Moo, and we started humming our parts from our band song, Wicked (yes, like the musical). Leo came up and started humming too, and when we got tired of harmonizing, Moo went away, and Leo and I ended up sitting, leaning against the wall, chatting and trying to stab each other with staples picked off the bulletin board.
So yeah, I think we're cool.

Yaaaaay for school yard Romance! Your life could be portrayed in a manga book. Although I'm pretty sure you'd rather not have this moment illustrated, except for maybe the last part. 8D

"Otaku"?
But it would be pretty awesome to star in a manga book, now that I think about it. =)

Otaku is someone who basically loves manga, anime or any of that sort. Which is totally me!Otaku is derived from Japan, although I'm sure you could've guessed that. XD I'll show you my OtakuUSA magazines someday. You'll learn the lifestyle, and learn to love it. ;)
~Leah, also an obsessive fan of music in general. XD
