| | The Cure - Killing an Arab | ] | oh man. Today was so confusing. It started off blah, then went horrible, then went blah, then went horrible, then went okay, then went panic-inducing, then went sweet, then went hilarious, and now it's back to blah. The horribles were mainly due to the tests I had to take/get back today. ahhhh. So my math teacher is under the impression that giving us a seven point curve on a test is going to make up for the thirty minute period we had to take the whole thing in. I don't care if it gives some people super high grades and they're just oozing happy over it; I'd gladly give those points back for my 20 minutes back. 10, even.
oh well, it's spring break now so I'm not going to think about grades.
anywaaaays...that reminds me. my three goals for spring break are: a) watch Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind b) watch Donnie Darko c) watch some other movie that I can't remember right now but might be Beetlejuice
People should join me in doing that. Especially Donnie Darko because I've never seen it before and I'm scared to watch it by myself, I don't believe people who say it's not scary.
ummm the Tommy tech meeting was awesome. I miss tech so much. And of course, I'm ASMing this show too so I won't get to be a real techie. I think I'm just going to grip my entire senior year. Either that, or do no theater....haha yeah right. I couldn't quit theater if I tried. It would just suck me back inside it and there's nothing I could do.
And, of course, I'm going to the OMG Fest tonight. Because people told me to and I said "Okay." I won't say I'm excited for it, but I'm looking forward to it. Hmmm speaking of that, I should probably go get ready for that. or...something. |

| | Portishead - It Could be Sweet | ] | Had my YPA interview today - oi, I was so nervous. But I think I did alright, I remembered to talk slow enough. And they nodded a lot, I took that as a good sign.
The physics egg drop thing was today, too. Mine totally survived the first two rounds, I rocked out the nerf ball. Third round's tomorrow, but I'm not holding my breath, I'm pretty skeptical of a nerf ball withstanding a cement block dropped on it.
I'm so in love with magnetic poetry. "I may not be the best looking tequila in here, but your wedding cake would look great in astronaut pants." Actually, it's magnetic pick up lines, but it's the same idea. I love Gia forever for getting them for me.
I think I'm out of things to say, how sad. Oh well, here are a couple old-ish pictures (Just So) to make up for it:

Thanks to the million people who screamed "happy birthday" at me in the halls, I appreciated it :P I also got a LAAAAPTOP. soooo cool. It's an Ibook, so I'm still trying to get used to the whole mac part of it. I'm doing okay, once Marc kindly told me where to find the menus I figured the rest of it out alright. I think. ANYWAYS, the really super ultra cool part of the laptop is that it totally has 3254 songs on it. Yeah, that's right - NINE DAYS WORTH OF MUSIC. My dad brought it in to work so one of his tech people could get it all set up for me, and she decided to be AMAZING and load all of her music onto it for me, too. And she has really really good music. and yeah. I'm so excited. So now I get to play Josh's game because now I actually have more than, like, thirteen songs:
Step 1: Open your MP3 player. Step 2: Put all of your music on random. Step 3: Write down the first *50 songs it plays, no matter how embarrassing.

Pixies - Debaser 17. Claude Francois - Ce Soir Je Vas Boire 18. The White Stripes - This Protector 19. De La Soul - Big Brother Beat 20. My Bloody Valentine - Touched 21. Everything But The Girl - No Difference 22. Smashing Pumpkins - Cherub Rock 23. Alanis Morissette - Hands Clean 24. Beck - Derelict 25. Sleater-Kinney - All Hands on the Bad One 26.

I've decided matt damon is ugly. I had to look up pictures of him for this lame english project (remake movie of the great gatsby). I'm glad he's the mechanic in our movie. the psychopathic mechanic. brad pitt's in it too, he's not my favorite, either. But he looks like robert redford, who looks like Gatsby apparently, so it's good enough.
i ran out of things to say.

(In Arizona, my dad was friends with a DJ on what was the equivalent of 97.9 here and he gave it to my dad, who in turn gave it to me). A whole bunch of disco songs, all on one CD. Plus the "grease mega-mix". seriously, I don't think I'm ever going to need to buy another cd again. ever. Right now it's on Dancing Queen. Which is crazy, as I'm almost seventeen! ahhhh! Okay, maybe not crazy. probably not even interesting. eh.
As everyone is well aware of, JUST SO IS OVER. thank god. I dunno, parts of it were fun because I was friends with so much of the cast/crew...but still. Nothing could make up for the complete horrible of the rest of it. I'm ready for a break, too. There was like...a week between All My Sons and Just So because All My Sons was delayed and all, so i'm excited about no theater for awhile.
I hate laptops. I'm on my brother's because even though he has his very own computer, he still feels the need to use the one in the family room. Stupid computer games with their stupid non-compatibleness.
I streaked my hair today. I don't think you can really tell, though. Oh well, I know it's there.
I'm boring. And tired. yay for sleep at 9:30! ......

Sam brought me pochis today <3. But then it tasted funny. I don't think I like kiwi as much as I thought I did. So then Sam got it back. But I'm stiiiill craving pochis. sigh. and now my uterus hurts. maybe I'll just CUT IT OUT......or I could take pills.
My birthday is in a week. people should remember. I have no idea what I want. at all. I think that means I'm spoiled, I have sooo much stuff I just can't comprehend getting more. whee.
now i want to sleep. that's what i want for my birthday, a snowday like last year. Last year's birthday was awesome. I don't even know what I did, but I know it was a snowday. I probably slept.

| | just so songs stuck in my head, but that doesn't count | ] | sooo. haven't been on the internet in, oh, ever. I blame Just So. I'm torn between whining about how much I hate the show/am sick of it and trying desperately to get people to go to it. So, I'll do neither.
Random occurrences that may or may not have happened this weekend:
Our house got TP'd by Jonathan's lame wrestling friends and it froze in the grass and I had to clean it up. Luckily, I'm short when compared to the trees so I couldn't pick up any more than what was on the ground, which wasn't all that much.
I went to Steak N Shake after Just So on Saturday and DID NOT spill Erin's milkshake.
Stella and I practiced pole dancing on the lighting pole things backstage waaaaaay too much.
I DIDN'T let the curtain collapse during a Saturday show of Just So. (YAY!)
I wrote an essay over The Sun Also Rises and showed it to Mrs. Eicher and she actually liked it and didn't tell me to rewrite all of it, which I greatly appreciated.
I put make-up on Joe.
I bought new shoes and a new jacket, but not new pants, which is what I actually needed.
Lindsey straightened my hair and it looked cool but felt weird. But then I had to shower and it went away. Also on the topic of hair, I bought hair dye and plan on putting my streaks back in sometime soon. And by soon, I mean within the next five months.
I went to Scholastics to see my photograph. And I saw it. I also saw other people/other people's art, which was infinitely more interesting than mine. I got a new idea for a photo project. I'm really really excited about it, but I'm not telling what it is cos I don't want to jinx it :P
I wrote a completely pointless livejournal entry. |

So I definitely babysit for the coolest people on the planet. Steven (the kids' dad) was driving me home tonight and was telling me about when he used to live in San Francisco. His night job was setting up the sound systems for clubs in the area, and he was talking about he got to see Moby play when he was just starting out all the time (ten years ago ish?) and he had old Moby CDs and we were listening to them. Oh man, so cool. And he rides motorcycles. And he and Amira (his wife) go to movies like American Pie 3 and places like Pochis. But they're moving to Arizona (!) in the summer. I'm bummed. I'll miss the girls, they're so cute. Creepy sometimes, but cute. Tonight Talia was telling me how she didn't want to wear her pajama top with the bunnies on it because when she did "the bunnies came for her." And then she had this little black leather book she was reading out of. Well not reading, as she's four, but paging through it and it was called "The Prophet" or something like that. I dunno, she's a little disturbing sometimes. She used to talk about abortions a lot and tell me how many children I was going to have when I grow up (12). Then she decided I had actually already had the children and was hiding them in my closet. And I'm so not kidding, either. But she's still ultra cute and I'll miss her. And Suriya (older daughter), too. Suriya's much more..normal.
Today at rehearsal I painted the sandwhich boards signs for Just So. They're cute and if/when you see them, appreciate how much time goes into them because it's a lot.
I think that's all I wanted to say..the end. |

In other news...Just So. That play is taking over my life, which is sad because I don't do a thing at rehearsals expect sit there and play hours of truth-poker with Lindsay (our own invention, it started out as truth or dare poker, but then we realized dares required moving, which we're either not allowed to do or don't want to). And sometimes I try to tell people to be quiet, but it never works out all that well. If only I could be as gifted as Amy...
I got a popup ad a little while ago for some company that would put your photographs onto a piece of chocolate for you. So you could, like, eat your children's faces? And have it taste like chocolate? How creepy is that?
I was going to do stuff tonight...with stella...or erin. But I'm not, and in an hour or something I'll probably end up playing my freaking videogames until like three in the morning. And we have rehearsal tomorrow, too....eww. But I get to leave early, so I can go babysit. wheeeeeeee.
Erin just said I could have her copy of Labyrinth. And my mood is infinitely better because of it. Behold the power of David Bowie.
Essay tests are gross, especially in history. Especially when there's the other half of the test on Monday. The same day my Physics project is due and my precalc test is.
I'm trying to remember other stuff that happened this week...my internet was down hardcore for three or four days, hence my lack of updating. Not that I would have updated if we'd had it, of course, but now I have a good excuse. And I probably wont be able to write much next week, either, as it's tech week and all. Everyone should come see the show, by the way. I'll put your face on a piece of chocolate and eat it if you don't. And then if you don't come the next weekend, I'll eat your real face. Consider the chocolate your warning...*shudder* ewwwww....

I'd freak if that many strange people were in my house, but she seemed alright. Then again, I haven't talked to her today. ah well, we love you, Stella!!
Speaking of love, I also love Lauren, who was kind enough to loan me her Photoshop. ahhhh i'm so obsessed with it now. can ya tell? nah.... So yeah..thaaaaank you Lauren!!
Today some people came over and we built a fort out of blankets, chairs, and an umbrella in my basement and sat in it and drank chai and we were cool. And then we played with dolls and I kind of stopped feeling cool...
ummmm. I also made a purse today. It's big and brown and pink and corduroy and I can fit more than two nickels and a pencil in it so I'm happy.
This entry doesn't have much purpose (although it does seem to have quite a few ruin on sentences...), I kind of just wanted an excuse to force people to see my new icons. I feel so self sufficient, no more I-have-a-new-icon-but-I-had-no-role-in-making-it for me!

I think I failed my spanish exam today. whee! ahhh it was so hard...I guess that's what I get for not studying :/ ah well.
I got a photograph into Scholastics (high school art show), I'm moderately happy about that. If I remember the numbers right, Scioto entered 70 some photographs and 11 were accepted. So that's pretty cool, I guess. The only thing I'm not all that happy about is that it's one of my infrared pictures, down by the pond with some trees and such. It's an okay picture, but the only reason it looks cool is because of the film - if it was normal film, it'd just be like "wow. neat trees. really." I dunno. It's like they're accepting the effect, or the film, not anything I actually did or had control over. But whatever I guess, a picture accepted is a picture accepted.
Speaking of pictures, I just tried to get some on here, but photobucket wasn't working for me. But I still tried, which is an improvement for me.
weekend...I think I'm going to the thing at Stella's on Sunday night And I have the feeling I made plans with somebody for Saturday, but I don't remember what. Otherwise, I plan on sleeping. Or watching Dead Man, we finally rented that and I'm excited. And sometime in there I'm going to go get fabric, etc. to make a purse with because I am so, so sick of mine and all the ones I've found are incredibly ugly. So I'm going to sew one. it'll be sweet. or something. oo just remembered what saturday night is - mystery dinner theater. I can't eat a thing on the menu (well, that's a lie. I can eat the fruit cup and the green beans) so it'll be super.

uhm....christmas was cool, I got a digital camera (fujifilm finepix s5000) and it's really quite amazing. Some cd's, dvd's as well. It was fun. Now I can be cool and post pictures on here liek everybody else. I'll do that when I get around to it. I have some sweet pictures from last night. Sam was juggling fire because he's cool like that, and because it was night time it had to be on a slow shutter speed (isn't that cute? "shutter speed" on a digital camera? i dunno, i think it's funny) so the fire got all blurred and you can see the loops and stuff it made. I think that was the hilight of last night...juggling fire pretty much beats out anything else.
the rest of break's been alright...I dunno, I don't remember what I did. Played a whole lot of video games, started reading Les Miserables again...

I was gonna get him the matrix dvd, but then my dad had to go buy it before I could. I'll probably get him some paints or an art set or something...
My throat hurts, I've been drinking tea like whoa lately. with lemon and honey...mmm. Oh man, my dad got this jar of REAL honey from the OSU bee place. It's so crazy; it's really really thick, like you have to scrape it off, you can't pour it. I haven't decided if I like it or not yet.
I'm going to go take pictures for Carolyn (Cline) later today. Her and her sisters all dressed up as a christmas gift for her mom. I'm nervous, it's such short notice if anything goes wrong I won't have time to reshoot it. And my stupid camera's been having problems advancing the film, it doesn't go all the way so some of the pictures end up overlapping on the edges. eep.

But now I finally am!. Afterwards I think we're going to try to stop by Arvind's house for the band thing, as well.
Jonathan's been sick a lot lately. I feel bad for him...he rented Romeo + Juliet today because he's missing it in Hayward's class. I forgot how much I adore that movie.
Gift giving was fun. Erin and I went to the dollar store yesterday after rehearsal and I ran around and got a lot of stuff. And it was cheap, and it was good. Then I gave it all away today. And Sam made me a neat shirt, it's black and has pink spray paint on it and says "my boyfriend's band...we're girls" on it and "tell your imaginary friends" on the back. Our imaginary band is the coolest band around. we have MATCHING SHIRTS. whoa.
ummm. Just So rehearsal started. Poor Amy. Lindsay was gonna be stage manager because neither Amy nor I wanted to, but then she didn't want to either. So Amy had to do it again, with me and Lindsay as her ASM's. I would have but I don't think I'd do a very good job, as I could barely keep the small, experienced cast of All My Sons under control, and Just So is like 127246378 times bigger. Maybe I'll do Tommy, though. we'll see. ooo, All My Sons went really well. Thanks to everyone who went. I'll kill you in your sleep if you didn't :)

So the whole time we were there I'd been trying to talk to him but he'd just run away or not say anything back. So it was the day we were leaving and I went over to say good bye to him and he walked up to me and hugged my leg really tight. And then he walked away without saying anything. but it was adorable and made me happy. of course, in doing so, I'm pretty sure he infected me with the flu and is the reason I was puking all that night...but still! It's okay because now I'm all better.
Eh...what else. Stage managing is hard when no one listens to you. I think I'm gonna do lights for Just So. Ummm. December is busy and I'm stressed. Yet I still find enough time to procrastinate and fill out a cute little dinky survey I stole from Lauren: ( bam ) eh. the end. |

Went to McDonalds and got milkshakes (mmm i forgot how good those are) and then sat in her car in the parking lot and talked. Then went back to her house and talked some more. Then I came home and went to sleep. Sounds lame, but I promise it was fun. Thanksgiving's soon, we're going to Florida for a family reunion. I dunno. I used to LOVE those things when I was little, but this year I'm kinda nervous. I always end up feeling really awkward at them; I'm pretty much in the dead middle of the cousins so all the older ones bring their fiances and are talking about weddings and honeymoons, and the younger ones are all babies that just sit there and be adorable. eh. I'm gonna end up with so much homework, I won't have time to come out of my hotel room anyways. I don't know if I'll remember/care enough to update before I leave again, so if I don't, Happy Thanksgiving to everybody.
I think that's all. This made me laugh: http://suzvoy.freeservers.com/potcvids.html |
