[ mood | ear hurts ]

Well I'm back, safe and sound. Not a pleasant flight, though. There was a lot of turbulence, and for some reason I couldn't get my right ear to pop and adjust on the way down the first flight (to Chicago) so the pressure stayed all built up and it was killing me the whole time. Then we still had another flight to take and it was still really bad so on the way up it hurt even more cause it starting popping a little..but it still wouldn't go all the way. The way down was another killer...I'm not sure why that happened. I had no problems on the flights down to Florida.

Well, my ear is still hurting, I think I have an ear infection, yuck. I don't have any time to go to the doctor, though. Maybe Wednesday after my hair appt. or tomorrow before jazz. But I have my stupid stats test wednesday, so I need time to study tuesday night. I already have chambers tonight that takes up some of my time. Grr, so much to do...

Well, I got my stats hw done, at least...lol finished it this morning. It was only the few problems I couldn't decide on an answer to. I hate Stats sooo much. At least it's almost over, and then we'll only have to do a project for finals YES!

Have to write a poem for English hw tonight. So stupid! I hate writing poems. At least it's rhyming...but I have to encompass the whole plot and meaning and analyze the stupid book we just read and include it in the poem.

I'm not sure if I'm trying out for the chambers solo tonight...in an hour lol. I kinda want to, but my ear is hurting and I really can't sing, I can't stay on pitch cause I can't hear myself.

Sooo nearing the end of spring break here...tomorrow we fly back, we'll be getting home probably around 8:30-9...another layover in Chicago

It was fun, despite the unfortunate circumstances. Some things you just can't plan for...but my grandpa's doing well, he's finally able to eat (liquids, but it's better than nothing) and he should be getting out of there as soon as...well, he makes use of his colon and it proves that all is well.

They might want him to do a chemo treatment, just in case there was some cancer that they couldn't detect. Since he's in really good health, they figure it's worth it just to be sure that the cancer is gone, he'll probably be able to handle it okay.

Soo, yesterday I went to see Ashlinn. That was a lot of fun, I finally got to meet some people and see her school. I got to see another high school play too, The Music Man. That was fun, I never get to actually see the plays. They are crazy with drama there, they do like 5 plays a year...more actually. The set was amazing, they had soo many pieces. Like the house, it had an inside and windows so you could see the characters acting inside..like playing the piano and stuff and there was a window with a light representing like an upstairs/attic. It was cool.

I also got to meet (only see, really) Ben, the one nut wonder. Haha, it was amusing. He had a big moustache grown in for the part and he looked funny...and sleezy, ironically.

Today we went to universal before she had the play. Unfortunately, she had an early call since they had some mistakes in the play last night, so we had to leave the park at about 3. I didn't notice the mistakes, except for some lighting issues, but I just figured it was a blackout cue pushed too early. Turns out a girl had fainted backstage and a wad of confetti from the scene before was stuck in the track lighting. They had to end Act I early and skip a few songs, but it smoothed out pretty well.

Soo yeah, today was fun, I've never been to Universal before. I wish we had more time, since the waits are so long we only got in a few rides. 4 I think? maybe, but they were awesome. Plus just walking around is fun, and waiting in line a lot are inside and there's stuff along the way that keeps you busy and all.

Tomorrow is another day of lots of flying and layover, yuck. I'll have to do my Stats HW on the plane. I finished half of it! I did the multiple choice, lol, so I have to do the open ended. Ick. I did a little of my workbook too. Test Wednesday, I can't wait till it's over. I think we should have a Stats party - where we burn stats books!!!!! lol okay well I'm gunna get going and relax and get some sleep and all.

Spring Break [27 Apr 2005|01:47pm]
[ mood | bored ]

hmm well it's spring break...I'm down here in Florida now... been here since Saturday and I'll be here till next Saturday. It's allright I guess, but I wish I was back home..

Sunday I got to see our old neighbors from California, which was nice. I hadn't seen them for 7 years.

Monday was my grandpa's surgery, and everything went well. He had a tumor on his colon and it was cancerous. They have to test to see if any other areas are infected, or if they got it all. So far it looks good, but they won't have the results for a week. We've been visiting him everyday, that's all I've been doing really. Today he got up to walk for the first time..I might go visit him later. It's hard to see him like this. :/

I'm going to visit Ashlinn Thursday and Friday, so that'll be fun. I've gotta do my stats stuff today, that sucks...

I dunno, I feel guilty for wanting to be home. I'm glad I got to see my grandpa before his surgery, and I'm glad I get to visit him in the hospital. I just wish I didn't have to be here for a whole week. I miss everyone. Oh well, prom weekend will be fun and makeup for it. I gotta go, I'm tieing up the phone line.

[ mood | excited ]

hmmm today was awesome. I went shopping after school with my mom to Marshalls. We spent forever in there, but I got a bunch of awesome stuff. I haven't gone shopping in like a year lol. Well maybe not, but I never ever go shopping. Soo yeah I got these boy shorts and 3 skirts and 3 shirts and shorts for gym lol (so I don't have to pull them down a lot when I do crunches). Ooh annd I got a new pretty green wallet and green shoes. And one of my skirts was green :) Hehe yayyy

Yesterday I slept alllll day long till 10:00. Haha then I had to do my stupid history essay. But tonight I'm going to go to bed! Lol I just have to study for german and maybe practice for jazz band. I was actually planning on catching up on my Stats workbook but I went shopping.

Oh well, shopping is 100000000000000000000000000000 times better than Stats.

I can't wait for Friday cause Chris gets his license!! :) And we are going to hang out and have fun.
I'm sad I won't be here for spring break, but I'm excited to see Ashlinn!
my grandpa's in the hospital now, though :/

Hmm okay well I should go now and stuff. I'm going to get sleep tonight!!!!!!!!!! Yayy! hehe

[ mood | sleepy ]

hmm well I feel better now so that's good. I ended up writing like 8 pages for my English thing last night, but I didn't finish my forensics project. I think Costello was kinda mad, but there was extra credit on it, so I asked if the extra credit could kind of cancel out it being a day late. I think it'll be allright, he likes me. So I have to finish that up now. Hmm...

Today was okay, I guess. Not much happened, I was soo tired all day though. I thought I would fall asleep at some point but I managed to stay awake.
Once I got home, I fell asleep though. I was going to try to do all my homework before chambers, but I was too tired.
I got up once at like 4 and I was like okay 10 more minutes and I'll start working...and next thing I know it's 10 to 6 and my mom yells upstairs to me that I'm late. So I had to speed like crazy and I was still 10 minutes late to chambers.
Would have been almost on time but I got stuck behind this slow lady on sherman ridge after the intersection the whole way until pidgeon hill. Ugh she was going like 30 the whole time.
But I think it was okay, I mean Brittany was like a half hour late and no one said anything. I couldn't sing anyway, at least not past an A. My throat's better though, just hoarse now.
I hope I don't get too sick, and I hope I'm not sick for all this chambers stuff I have coming up too like auditions and the concert. Oh well, I'm good now.

Hmm I have to think of what songs I wanna do Broadway/Jazz night. I'm excited. Ooh and Friday we play at the lunches for jazz band, that will be fun. :) Gotta practice! Yikes.

Okay, time for homework...kinda. lol.

[ mood | tired ]

Hmm so Sunday night and time to do all my stupid homework. This weekend was fun, even though now I'm getting sick. Damnit, I thought it wasn't going to hit me.

Soo Friday Chris and I hung out (after I went to the doctor's) and that was fun. We went out to dinner with his family cause it was his dad's birthday. Mmm it was so yummy I had Bolg olgi and chimchee (yeah I don't remember how to spell those) and I haven't had that in forever. Chris is going to learn to try new things and enjoy different foods! :)
I had to leave at like 11 so that kinda sucked cause I wasn't expecting that, but it was good we still had time together.

Saturday I waited around for Steff to come over, which she finally did at like 8. But it was fun, we hung out and she slept over. My parents were out at this party with my family so no one else was home and Chris, Paul, Jordan, and Jim came over cause they were all hanging out at Paul's or whatever. But yeah that was fun so they played duckhunt (I think that's the only reason Paul ever comes over) and stuff. They stayed till they had to leave for curfew and my parents weren't home till waay later so it was all good.
It was nice though, I got to see Chris again, and it was fun to hang out with everyone. Stupid Paul got soda on my pillow though cause he threw the empty can across my room! I made them take their cans home to throw away cause I know my parents would have notice lol.
Ooh and we had a car party we all went out to see Steff's car and then Paul proved his was better cause his is awesome. And we were loud and blasted the radios in the car even though I live far up the road from my neighbors and they probably wouldn't care enough to talk to my parents even if we were too loud lol. They don't like us. Soo yeah that was fun. Steff and I went and made sure all traces of boys were removed.

Soo yeah then this morning my whole family and Steff's came over for breakfast lol. Soo Steff and I drove to the A&P to get a few things and then everyone was here including the dog and my aunt's bird lol. Soo I was really tired when everyone left and I just went and slept for a little while. Then I got up and had ice cream and then my aunt called for me to go feed the dog for her.
So I called Chris from my aunt's and he was at Becca's and he told me to come over. But I was all gross cause I hadn't showered and I wasn't planning on going anywhere...so I called my mom and asked and she said I could stay till 7:30 so I did that.
It was fun, even though Derek and Paul stole my car keys. Soo yeah that was my wonderful weekend and now it's almost 9 and I haven't done any homework even though I got home like quarter to 8. And yeah that's it I should stop.

[ mood | working ]

Wow, haven't updated in awhile. It's been crazy. I'm in the lab for Forensics today so I thought I'd just write a quick summary of everything.

Well, this weekend was the play, and it was awesome. It went really well, we were sold out for all three shows. It was a lot of fun, and I wasn't nervous at all. It was weird, I got nervous when I was in the chorus before but not this time.

We went out to Yetter's the first night afterwards which was fun too. I drove Kelly and we both had ice cream sundaes, yum. Then I drove Kelly and Derek to her house and Derek stuck his head out of my sunroof lol.

Saturday night the group split up. Some people still went to Yetter's, but we went to Sussex Queen (actually we were gunna go to the Inn but they wouldn't serve us). That was fun, we took up the whole back room with all of us. Chris came that time, he was feeling better.

Sunday my whole family came to the show, and after that was the cast party. It was at Kyle's house, and it was fun. Everything was great, I'm sad it's ending now. Didn't cry much at senior circle though, mostly just thinking about next year's. That's going to be sooo hard.

Soo yeah. Chris has mono, which means I will probably get it. But he's feeling better so hopefully I won't get it bad. I at least hope I won't get it for prom or spring break. That would suck.

Okay time to go back to "work".

[ mood | excited ]

Hmmm almost time for the super long play practice. 2-10 today, yikes. But I'm excited. Can't wait for costumes, that will be fun.

I'm so excited for prom, I just finished getting everything this weekend. Got my shoes and earrings...and a bag that was my aunt's in case I don't find another bag. I might get a bracelet and a ring if I find one, but besides that I'm all ready! And we have the whole limo thing worked out and we're going to have an awesome time!

Soo Friday I went looking for shoes for prom and play, but was unsuccessful.
Saturday was good though, cause I went down to my aunt's to try the shoes she found for me, and the one pair was perfect. Soo cute and they match my dress and they tie around my ankles. Awesome.
After that we went to TJ Max with another aunt and my cousins and we shopped. It was soo much fun, I never really spend time with them cause they're the aunts that live an hour away. So it was fun to shop with all the girls. I now have not only everything for prom, but a new bedspread and tons of awesome pillows. Woo it's soo great.

After I got back, we picked up Chris and him and I hung out here. Chris might have mono though :( Which would mean I'd probably have it too. That sucks...but he'll find out Monday if he has it or not. I just hope that he doesn't get really sick and have to stay outta school. And I hope I don't get it during like spring break or prom.

Welll I better do homework before this rehearsal cause I know I won't want to do it when I get home.

Hmm. Lots of play. Lots and lots. It's crazy. But I love it. Even if it is stressful and embarassing [like when they take away our harmony in Sound of Music]. Sooo sucky. Oh well.

Rehearsal's been to 7 every night. It's draining. Last night I didn't do any homework, so tonight I have to finish my whole research paper. Damn papers. They're always do right around the end of the year...every year, never fails.

I can't wait for tech week, though. Mostly cause I can drive there and go home real quick. Fun. And I will be driving Kelly home, so I will have companionship. Yay. I hope I don't get lost after I drop her off lol.

Okay, time to work, maybe. Well, I have to. You know it's not gunna be graded for this marking period anyway so why does it have to be due now? No fair.

Hmm well it is Easter break. That's good, no school for 4 days...

Wednesday we had after school activities cancelled, so Chris came over and we spent some time together. It was fun, especially since it was a school night. How awesome, I can't believe my mom let us lol. And she suggested it.
So yeah we went to get his hair cut too hehe. It looks nice. Yesterday we spent a few hours together. He had to stay two hours later than me for crew, so I picked him up at 8 [after an hour of crying and fighting with my mom and crap].
It was fun, we talked and it was just nice to sit together and relax. It made me very happy. :)

That was fun, I'm glad I got to see him, twice. He's gone now though, off to Vermont for the whole break. :( Sadness, but oh well. I'll be busy here I guess since Easter is at our house. Yay I can't wait for chocolate! Mmm

Soo yeah now I'm supposed to be cleaning the house lol so maybe I should get back to that.

Hmm what's happened lately? I can't even remember...

let's see this past weekend was a lot of fun. I got to see Chris every day which was awesome. Friday we went from play to my house and then I drove to the open mic..
Saturday I picked him up and we hung out at my house for the day..then later we went to his house and watched the ring. Not as scary the third time, but still icky.
Then Sunday I went out for brunch with my family so after that I picked him up and we went to my aunt's for a little bit, then to Becca's. Soo pretty awesome weekend. I love driving.

Soo yeah that's the weekend in a nutshell..It was amazing..I can't believe things with Chris just keep getting better. There was a little drama Sunday about prom, but oh well it'll all work out eventually. We just need to find another couple for our limo! [and David Chew needs to ask someone!]

Thennn I don't think much happened this week so far..Monday was chambers and we got a new song, it's awesome. I love the music wing, it is such a nice escape. ^_^

Soo yeah Tuesday night, can't wait for Thursday, half day and play from 12:30-5:15...Chris will be there again :) and hopefully we can hang out that night after cause I won't see him all weekend [he's going to Vermont] :( But oh well, it's Easter, i'll eat chocolate lol. Hmm well time to do hw I guess. I'm gunna really do it!

Hmm it's Wednesday...let's see what happened these past three days..well Monday I was totally dead all day from staying up talking to Chris till like 4..then I went to bed at 4:30 lol. I don't really remember what happened on Monday...play and chambers..haha oh yeah and then I fell asleep on the couch..my mom and I both did and didn't wake up till 11:45 haha so then I just went upstairs and finished my sleep...

Tuesday...hmm Chris was gone all day cause of Teen Arts..so it was kinda lonely in German and stuff but I got to do my homework lol so it was all good...hahaha and play was the best...well, set construction.. well first, in play I almost had to wear the ugliest dress ever cause the one prettier one was tight..but I tried it on again and showed Riccardi and convinced her to let me wear the nice one. so yay that was good...

haha okay and at set we were making the escape stairs so we had to screw the legs into the stage. so Kelly was screwing and Kyle was leveling them out and holding them in place for her. So Kyle had his shoe against it to make sure it didn't move..haha and Kelly didn't do it far enough down and she screwed into his shoe instead. hahaha that was the funniest thing ever we all fell over laughing. I was crying I was laughing so hard, that was great.

Today was okay I guess...play was good, we blocked the final scene it was fun. I can't wait till we put everything together, it's gunna be good. It won't get there till tech week or something but it will be good. Sooo yeah. Time for homework. [maybe]

Winter Meltdown [13 Mar 2005|02:29pm]
[ mood | happy ]

Soo this was a good weekend. Friday after play I went over to Chris's and we got to hang out for awhile until his hockey game. I went to that too...it was good, but they lost :( But we had a nice car ride together at least and we got to spend time with each other.

Saturday was the show, finally. Good thing it didn't snow again or anything. First, though, I had to go shopping with my mom, wasting the whole day and coming to the conclusion that there were no comforters I liked anywhere. She dragged me all the way to Bed Bath and Beyond to show me a comforter we had already looked at and I didn't like. By the time I got home and took a shower I had to leave for the show, so nothing got done that day.

Show was awesome. There were 3 other bands..the first two were...not my style of music. They weren't bad or anything, though. The third band was pretty good, and of course Naked Rabbit was last cause they're awesome. Stupid Sparta kids, they all left after their band went, it was stupid. But it doesn't matter cause the guys did awesome and it was a lot of fun.

After, I drove Chris to Derek's on my way home. I had about 10 minutes to hang out before I had to leave. Was a few minutes late for curfew, told my mom it was cause I had to get out to open the garage door and pull the car in. No trouble. Sooo fun weekend..
except now I have a ton of hw to do and I have to go to my aunt's for dinner. Errr...later.

Sooo yeah. Today's the test for honors history for next year...I'm gunna talk to Riccardi..maybe I'll take it. Errr I dunno what I wanna do, but I guess I should take it just to see if I even make it so I have the choice. Damn why'd I have to get below a B this year. Stupid test. Ohhh well.

Play practice tonight and jazz band after. Ick, too much. Won't get home till late. Hmm wonder what's for lunch.
