What was it I was going to do?

Hey All!!
So I know it has been a while since I have posted. To be perfectly honest I have kind of forgotten. So that is what I have decided to make this post about. How forgetful our minds are.
I don't know about the rest of you, but when the spring comes, my work ethic and school dedication kind of goes down the toilet. Last year during spring quarter, I actually did fairly well. I mean I did get my first B but that was due to more focus on my other classes and my ever getting in the way pride. But this year, I seem to be falling through the cracks.
During spring break, I started working on scholarship applications. Within a week and a half I completed 5 and started 2 more. The last two, I was waited until school started again so that I could get a letter of recommendation from my program head and teacher. He wrote me this awesome letter about how I was a good student and had good character. The very next day I completely forgot about the assignment due and therefore had to ask for mercy. Ummm something wrong with that?
Oh and then the next week I had a track meet against a school that one of my good friends graduated from, and whose sister still attended. He told me that she was a fake redhead and was wearing white leggings. Kind of weird specifics but yet it worked amazingly well. The whole meet I devised how I was going to meet her, finally after one of my events, it looked like I was going to get a chance. I was sitting on the ground, about where she was going to walk past after her event. She had stopped to talk to someone, and so I talked to one of my friends until she would walk by. In my head this was how it was going to go down: she was going to walk by, and I was going to say, "Hey are you Nick's sister?" Well as I was thinking about this, white leggings walked by, so I said, "Hey!" The girl turned around and she was African American. Now there isn't anything wrong with that, but definitely not the girl I was trying to meet. I quickly apologized, but then I had to explain myself to my friend. Definitely embarrassing.
Now still I am really young. Young brains are supposed to work really well. Instead I can't even keep track what day it is. Maybe I am just going crazy. Or like the title of this blog says, slightly discombobulated.
