*tear*

Last night was the last band concert of the year. Except for May term band. But that's different. And it was really really sad...kind of reminiscent of Sounds of the Stadium, where you know it's the last and it's so bittersweet because you may have more free time but...that's the last time that music will have been performed, it was the last concert for many seniors, and it was the last time that exact group would be on stage performing together. Yes, there will be a symphonic band next year...but some people will have graduated, some will have moved up to wind ensemble, and some may have quit...it will be different.
All I know is that I saw the Melissas in front of me start crying while we were playing Nearer My God to Thee and I was gone from then all the way through the last note of The Lord Bless You and Keep You.
I hate it when something so wonderful comes to an end. I know I'll be back next year. But as I said, it will be different. Not only that, it's another year finished...I'm that much closer to graduation...I know that time will absolutely fly, that I'll blink and be a fourth year and that will be it, it will be done...This was the fastest school year I think I've ever experienced. I thought high school was fast, this is like warp speed. It's crazy.
I've said it before. I'll say it again. I hate the end and I absolutely hate goodbyes.

Bowling balls and scissorhands

So today was awesome.
I got to do the dessert line at work which is about the easiest job ever. And I loved it.
Then Melissa's dad took me, Melissa, and her sister, Jennifer, bowling.
WHICH WAS AWESOME!
Much better than sitting around doing nothing like I do every Saturday.
It was wierd, though.
I had a fourteen pound ball because it was a violent shade of pink that I loved. It was a little heavy, but I could deal with it. So it was my turn to go, and I sent it sailing down the lane, but when I let go my thumb hurt a little. No big deal, right? Well, when I looked, it was bleeding from *underneath* the nail. Last I checked, bowling balls are very round and not able to cut you. Especailly underneath the nail of all places. My mom thinks maybe it was too much pressure...
Then we got Subway for dinner, then Melissa and Jennifer made some salsa and a bunch of us piled in Melissa's room and watched The Illusionist and Edward Scissorhands. Both amazing movies. I HIGHLY reccomend The Illusionist.
And here I sit now.
Typing this.
And dead tired.
So I'm gonna go to bed.
Goodnight!

FREAKING HAPPY

So today...is pretty much the BEST FREAKING DAY EVER...
This morning: psych test that I really think I understood.
Chocolate oatmeal at breakfast.
On the way to work, CARE PACKAGE! from my wonderful mommy =] my first one >>ever<<
After work, surprising Melissa with a more than month long plot for her sister to come up from AZ and she had NO CLUE! It was pretty sweet.
Then lunch...they had garlic bread! Wooo!
Chem lab: project time. My partner and I are separating the caffiene from Mountain Dew to see how much is in there and it's really easy at this point. You know those cartoons of science labs with the smoking beakers and coily nonsense tubes? Yeah we definetly got to set one of those up and USE IT! And it was sweet. For the project, we got two twelve can packs of pop, one being MD and the other Coke, turns out we only needed one can of the MD, so we got to split the remaining pop and keep it =]
By that point it was warm enough for CAPRIS AND FLIP FLOPS!
Then there was band.
We played Shirim, which is just amazing and incredible and fast and it sounds SO COOL! It is truly amazing. So I was on this incredible band high afterwards.
Then, at dinner, there was cookie dough ice cream, which was, indeed, a god.
And now, I just found out that chem is cancelled tomorrow, which means I have no class until Monday afternoon! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now to bask in my happiness...

Today

Reasons why it was wonderful:
~I found what is my new favorite song. According to iTunes, I've listened to it 39 times since I downloaded it at 1130. See previous post for the song =]
~Band was fun...I love working on something I can't play that well, and finally understanding it/being able to play it.
~NY TRIP MEETING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We're most definately going to see a three hour long opera that we have been advised to REALLY dress up for. Like wear a dress type dressy. There are a million free nights, and I found someone to see Phantom with me for sure [as long as I see Avenue Q with her, which I want to] and according to everyone....Phantom has managed to increase in amazing wonderfulness since opening so it's better now than it was in the past...I CAN'T WAIT! Oh yeah I definately know another person going, Abbey C, and she's a countdown type person like I am, so I can start freaking out with someone now and add Sarah to the freak out countdown list [maybe?] a day or two before leaving. [speaking of which..COUNTDOWN ADVISORY WITHIN THESE BRACKETS...44 more days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!] We're seeing two muesems (I cannot spell that word to save my life, or pronounce it...my bro and I say mewzim...and no one else I've ever met does, including every other member if my family). We're also going to be on the Today show with big flashy signs and wearing violent orange, I'll post the date we'll be there as soon as I know it so anyone reading this can watch if they wish. And we're taking a ferry out by the Statue of Liberty type area...at night, I believe, so I'll have some sweet pictures of that and the NY skyline. Turns out all we have to do work wise is fill out this 200 page blank book however we want to...meaning writing or pictures or programs or tic tac toe or our own artwork...so that's pretty...well MORE than sweet :D I guess room buddies are being determined by someone and not us, if I understood that correctly...I'm hoping I end up with my Sarah, but I know I'll live even if I don't...it would just be happy. I think that's really all we went over that blog worthy and exciting.
~THE TRAILER FOR PIRATES THREE PREMIERED AND I SAW IT AND HOLY CRAP IT LOOKS AMAZING! THE MUSIC WAS TO FREAKING DIE FOR....AAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!
***And the not so happy***
I had online work to do for French because class didn't happen tonight. Well, the stupid program said EVERYTHING was overdue, which it wouldn't have been until now and I was doing it at 630, so according to it I got a 0% in all three assignments...hopefully my prof can iron it out on wed when she's back from France...
Impending mountain of doom: French test Wednesday evening, with more homework due [online, no less] by then. A psych paper that I thought would only take up a couple of pages...according to my prof, it should be more like 5-6...due on Thursday, but it's JUST summarazing a journal article we found online, I don't know HOW I could go on for that long...oh AND a psych test, too. It's only for two classes...but it's all at once..I can't just concentrate on one and move on to the next like I always have...I'm just....AAAAHHH! I'm supposed to work from 11-3 tomorrow, but I'm probably going to ask to be off earlier as band starts at 350...and I really need time in the afternoon to STUDY and start reading the article for my soon to be mostly bs paper thing.
*deep sigh*
I should go down to the lobby and start *something*....
Once it hits Thursday afternoon, I'll be more than OK...just two horror days...it could be worse...*sigh*

MUFFLIATO! hahaha

New Grey's in an hour! I am SO excited...
Life has been pretty sweet.
I finally talked to my band director, Doc, about some career paths I've been considering with music.
I was looking at music therapy. BUT. To major in music therapy, I'd HAVE to get a music education degree because music therapy isn't exactly a guaranteed job. Very few places actually use it, and according to him I'd be more likely to end up with a job on the education end of things.
As of this moment, I'm leaning towards music business, which would involve owning a music store or managing a performing group (anywhere from a school band to a professional symphony, getting music and instruments and that type of thing).
That could all change, though, I'm not setting anything in stone until next year.
Weather sucks again. It feels like fall outside...it should feel like spring. =P
I can't wait til NY. Still. =]
I'm also pretty excited for tomorrow, too. My one and only Friday class is only a half hour long...someone is being interviewed for a position as a prof next year, and they're using our class to show to the current science staff they're decent with teaching, and we get to listen to her try and explain some upper level chem stuff (from classes I would have been taking as a third or fourth year). So I get to sit back and hear about alarming topics I no longer have to deal with! Yay!
I've made a discovery. I think I am more pale and ghosty white now than I ever have been. I've always *been* on the really pale side...but somehow it seems worse...I can look at my own reflection and tell, normally it's only noticeable when I'm standing next to a darker someone else. Or purposely comparing skin tone with someone. I'm ready for summer and a small amount of color. Not freakishly african-dark tan like I was after band camp senior year....I can still hardly recognize myself in those pictures...just a hint of sun kissed. That is, once I get passed the inevitable burning I endure until around July =P
Oh. Funny moment that happened at Kristina's over break that I forgot about.
I was sitting on Kristina's couch and had found a knitting needle I was goofing off with (poking stick, hair ornament...) when I started using it as a wand. I aimed it at Melissa and said Muffliato (which is a spell used in Half Blood Prince, it fills the ears of those nearby with a buzzing noise so they can't hear the conversation you're having) and Melissa jokingly said "my ears are buzzing!" and Chelsea replies [in all seriousness] "MINE ARE TOO!!!"
*DIES*
I think I came within a few inches of falling off the couch with that one. Melissa and I were both doubled over crying while everyone else in the room (all of them being complete non-Potterheads) looked at us with the blankest stares I have ever seen. It took me SEVERAL minutes to calm down enough to explain anything.
Good times.
Now...I need to practice...yay? [kind of....]

Complete and total copycat. ANSWERED!

Pretty shameless, too.
Yeah, Sarah just posted something like this a whole five minutes ago.
And I think it was pretty sweet. So I'm doing the same.

Just put the number that you're guessing. And NO GOOGLING!!!

1)When I was a young boy my father took me into the city to see a marching band. He said 'son when you grow up would you be the savior of the broken, the beaten and the damned.'

4) Cryptic word meander now there is a song beneath the song one day you'll learn, you'll soon discern it's true meaning. An interesting detachment, a listless poem of love sincere, desire despair and overlapping melodies. And it's not a love, not a love it's not a love song...

Til Kingdom Come-Coldplay-Megan
9) Homebird sing, fly me high on an angel's wings. Homebird sing, leave out nothing tell me everything...everywhere we went just looked the same to me, the skies were blue and the grass was green. I wonder how different I might see them now...but I see them somehow.
Homebird-Foy Vance-No one :(
10) In my dreams I'm dying all the time...I never meant to hurt you. I never meant to lie. So this is goodbye.

Flagpole Sitta-Harvey Danger-Megan
12) How long am I gonna stand with my head stuck under the sand? I'll stop before I can start, before I can see things the right way up. All that noise and all that sound, all those places I got found and birds go flying at the speed of sound to show you how it all began, birds go flying from the underground if you could see it then you'd understand...
Speed of Sound-Coldplay-Sandy, Megan, Nikki
13) I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have, cannonball into the water. I'm gonna muster all the confidence I have...for you I will.
For You I Will-Teddy Geiger-Megan, Nikki
14) All this feels strange and untrue and I won't waste a minute without you. My bones ache, my skin feels cold and I'm getting so tired and so old. The anger swells in my guts and I won't feel these slices and cuts. I want so much to open your eyes 'cause I need you to look into mine...get up get out get away from the liars 'cause they don't get your soul or your fire take my hand knot your fingers through mine and we'll walk from this dark room for the last time. Every minute from this minute now we can do what we like anywhere. I want so much to open your eyes 'cause I need you to look into mine...
Open Your Eyes-Snow Patrol-Megan, Nikki

Super Model-Jill Sobule-Sandy, Megan, Nikki
20) I walked across and empty land, I knew the pathway like the back of my hand. I felt the earth beneath my feet, sat by the river and it made me complete. Oh simple thing, where have you gone, I'm getting old and I need something to rely on. So tell me when you're gonna let me in, I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin.
Somewhere Only We Know-Kean-Sandy, Megan

Fix You-Coldplay-Sandy, Megan, Nikki
24) Timeless...love is a cure...a promise...still so pure...rise like the tide, no need to hide...fearless, just like before. Oh, here we go...they're all waiting for a cure. How, here we go...they're all waiting for a cure.
Timeless-Kate Havnevik-Megan
25) Yeah we walk through the door so accusing their eyes like they have any right at all to criticize hypocrites you're all here for the very same reason...
Breathe (2am)-Anna Nalick-Sandy, Sarah S., Megan, Sarah M.

I LOVE SPRING!

Today is pretty much amazing.
It is seventy degrees outside.
And I am in capris.
It is sunny and warm and the snow is almost GONE!
YAHOO!!!!!!!!
Also, I'm wearing a pair of capris that used to be freaking huge on me. Last time I wore them, I could take the off without even unbuttoning them. Now? They fit like a glove. YAY!
It's one of those days where all I'm inclined to do is lay out in the grass with a book.
But, unfortunately, as green as the grass has gotten today, it is way over saturated thanks to the almost gone snow and ice, soo...I'm confined to walking.
Oh well.
It's nice.
And I'm EXCITED!!!!!!
I feel like practicing...
=]

Yay

I have to work in forty five minutes. Blargh. :P At least it's money...
THE WEATHER IS FREAKING AMAZING!
It's already fifty degrees outside and it's supposed to get up to sixty five....HELLO CAPRIS! =]
Last night was pretty much amazing.
Band run out =]
We went to Harmony, Minnesota and did a little concert, got some food and came back.
The concert went about as well as it could considering we hadn't played as a group for eleven days.
But really...if my high school band tried to pull THAT off...we would have failed miserably, I still remember how interesting things got after a four day weekend. So it was really pretty darn good.
The ride home was AWFUL...it was supposed to take an hour and a half, but it took twice that much becuase it was so freaking foggy...like the dementors were having a massive orgy of some sort. It was fogged to the point that one could hardly see out of the windows, which set my motion sickness off completely as I have to see moving things and I couldn't.
I hate tour buses.
Junior year, Inaugural Parade, the way home took twenty three hours instead of thirteen because one of our six buses broke down two hours away from home and as soon as we got it all straightened out so we could continue, ANOTHER did, so we had to wait for FOUR HOURS for the mechanic to get there. I got on the bus at 8 am Saturday and we got to LW at 6 am Sunday.
Then senior year we went to Indianapolis for a competition and one bus broke down in the same parking lot as the Inaugural incident and we were delayed for a little while, I don't remember how long.
This last time...the fog... =P I think I'm cursed.
Yesterday I finally downloaded iTunes...I went to get a song from the other thing I had, but they didn't have it and it's been out for a while, so I got frustrated and gave up and just got the other, and I promptly spent an hour copying CDs and I now have 285 songs on it.
It's frustrating, though, because only three songs that I already had on my computer were transferred to iTunes. The rest are stored somewhere odd, I'm not sure where they are, but I'm trying to figure it out...I subscribed to the Mugglenet podcast, too =] Excitement!
And life is happy.

back again...arrgh.

Back at the Burg...not exactly where I want to be right this second, but that's life. It's close to the end.
I went to bed at one. And woke up at 530, which felt like 430 because of the time change...so I'm pretty much dead at the moment. I'll be in bed around ten probably.
I really didn't want to leave that early. REALLY didn't want to. Which lead to me talking to my mom. I mean...I know WHY...my dad has to be up at three in the morning for work tomorrow, and he drives a truck for a living...there was nothing I could do or say to push back leaving time without being extremely selfish and self centered...so I just kind of let off steam to my mom, as I knew that doing so to my dad would only make him feel bad about it. And I commented on how having a car would make things easier...I could leave when my classes are actually done and be home that much quicker, and sleep in a little on days I have to leave, actually have time to wake up, finish packing and oh, I don't know, have breakfast? Then I said "maybe if I get a good job and save up, I can get one..." and my mom responds with the most unexpected answer of pretty much all time. "Well, your dad and I talked about it and the end of last year, but we just couldn't handle it at the time. Plus, having a car first year would have been a little difficult, you really don't know how to get there yet. We'll talk about it again this summer."
*utter shock*
It was the apocolypse. Every time I've alluded to a car, which I haven't since the age of fourteen, I was openly laughed at. I was under the belief that I would never see a car from the parents. Ever. Never ever. Not happening. At all. So that pretty much blew me away last night.
I'm just hoping it will work out, as it will make getting to my summer job that much easier...and getting to and from school...and just getting where I need to be, as I can't always depend on my mom being home for me to use her car. *crosses fingers* I'm not getting my hopes completely up quite yet, nor am I harping on it to them, but...it would be happy.
Anyhoo.
Getting back was rather uneventful. Lots of sleeping. And boringness.
After getting back, Sarah and I walked down to Hardee's for some food as nothing was open on campus yet, and it was loads of fun :) especailly walking there, as most of the snow is still on the ground and rapidly melting, leaving unpredictably slushy slippery spots and mucho deep puddles. I almost slipped and fell sooo many times and actually was stuck on top of a slush mound for a few minutes, as there was ice and water at the bottom and it was really slippery and tall. It was an adventure of mass proportions!
Then I unpacked. Got dinner. Watched a Desparate Housewives rerun. And here I am. Too tired to accomplish anything, too awake for sleep.
My mom is still looking at the Lutheran book my aunt dropped off...so I'm starting to look at all things Catholic while trying to figure out where I'd fit in best...kind of interesting. Just trying to gain some form of direction with everything.
Maybe I'll read some HP...something...it is back.
It is starting to wear on me.
Seriously. A lot. This is just such an awkward situation. I'm tired of trying NOT to make eye contact with my roomate, of all people, and feeling like I can't say anything.
I still don't know what the hell I did, nor do I care, nor do I feel like I'll ever know.
I'm just ready for this term to be over already.
If I can just make it to New York...
Life will be better.
May? Are you freaking here yet? I'm waiting. Impatiently, me.
It's bedtime. Almost. =P

Break is too fast. Did it even happen?

Another break is pretty much done.
I get to leave at freaking six in the morning. And I'm not looking forward to it.
THIS is why I want a car of my own...so I could maybe stick around until noon...even 10...SOMETHING later than six. I'll be back at school by 11. I'd rather sit around the house for a few hours than sit around in my dorm knowing that I very well could be home at that moment. :P
Break was altogether way too fast.
It was great, but fast.
Today was the most perfect weather...almost sixty and sunny...I made smoothies, which I swear I could live on those things, my favoritest kind too (mango, pear, apple, half a banana, orange juice, vanilla yogurt and frozen strawberries) and drank it outside in our sun filled gazebo while reading Half Blood Prince and it was wonderful.
Kristina's last night was nothing short of amazing.
We played a card game. I made a monocle (sp ?) out of one of the point pieces. And found a knitting needle in the depths of her couch which I used as a hair ornament and a poking stick alternately.
Then we watched the shopping channel around midnight and made fun of everything...oh goodness...I have never seen Kristina laugh so hard. Ever. It was brilliant.
There will be a facebook album tomorrow. =]
I don't feel like going back yet. =P
Is it New York yet? How about summer? Something? Please? Easter?
At least there's band run out tomorrow.
I get to skip a French test for it. And it will be fun.
Did I mention the weather today?
No snow, either. A full week completely devoid of the frustrating white stuff. Yay!
Now to return to the ever so joyful happiness of home...
I'm only going to be here for nine ish more hours.
*mumbles darkly*

It's almost spring!!!!!!!

So...earlier...I think I figured out what that was from.
My aunt came in the morning. EARLY. Like ealier than 930 early. I heard her come in. Then Snoopy started barking...and kept barking...for around a half hour...then finally shut up...then, around 10, I gave up on sleep [I was still rather tired from yesterday...had it not been for the ruchus (sp?) I would still be out], rolled out of bed and got dressed to see my aunt, who I've missed quite a bit.
Got downstsairs.
They left.
And it was quiet.
And I was wide awake.
So I called my mom..."running errands" was all she would tell me. So I got in the shower. Got out...took my time and all, so it was almost 11 by this point..still gone.
Due to lack of sleep, people leaving on me and lack of food, I was rather moody and everything was setting me off.
Some rice cakes, caffeine and company fixed all that. They were finally back around noon and my aunt stuck around for a whole half hour before taking off.
All is well in Rachel's World once more.
Then there's some other semi frustrating stuff.
We've got US Cellular now. After my parents' extended vendetta against Verizon. When we got US...they were fine with it.
NOW it my mom's phone doesn't get a perfectly wonderful signal in Target.
Which is, btw, the ONLY place it's screwy. Ever.
And she suddenly dislikes them today because my aunt has Cingular and can get a signal in Target.
AARGH!
It's not gonna be perfect!
That seems to be her aim...abosulte perfectness. =P
*rolls eyes*
Anyhoo.
My aunt so happens to be Lutheran. And she brought over a book about Lutheran-ness to my mom for her to read.
My mom said she's considering switching.
Which brings some thoughts to mind...
My mom wouldn't be the only person in my family to switch. I'm sure my dad would, too, and if they both do so, I don't see why my brother wouldn't.
But...do I?
[this is to say, if they DO switch...likely, but not guaranteed]
I mean...idk...I'm not sure how much of the Catholic church I agree with, but changing...there's a long and drawn out process...I have been Catholic my whole life, I'm not one to just change...
Cause for more thought.
It's warm today.
Smells like spring! :D
Yay!
I'm wearing my short sleeve shirt with the owls on it at last! And I'm not freezing when I walk outside...even without a jacket. And shoes. =]
Manicotti tonight. Happy joyfulness.
And after dinner, Kristina's! For...funness...I'm not sure what we're doing yet, but I'll enjoy it, I'm sure.
In other news, break is almost over. Which kind of sucks.
BUT...then it's closer to Easter, closer to tour week >>>and<<< closer to NY!!! Then it'll be almost summer, then it WILL be summer, THEN...HARRY FREAKING POTTER!!! WOO HOO! =] =] =]
Excitement!

Grr.....

I hate that I get in these random really ticked off moods like I am now. There's nothing to be mad at at all. So why am I?
I'm in one of those moods where I just need to be separated from all human contact for an extended period of time.
Until I get back to school on Sunday, that is impossible.
Arrgh.
I'm trying not to snap...really hard...but I know I've already given off the air of someone who's rather mad. Which, while it is the truth, still causes others to try and do something...mention something...talk to me...idk...which just makes me more frustrated, as I said before...I need to lock myself up in an ampty room for an hour or two and then I'll be fine...
Now to return to cleaning my room.
It's more than a pigsty.
So I'm cleaning up my stuff.
A room has to be pretty darn messed up in order for it to frustrate me, so that's really saying something.
:P
[EDIT]
Evidently, the frustration was rather temporary, as I am quite chipper right now...
=]

Chicago rocks my socks

I am so tired and so in pain right now...oh goodness...I have not walked that much in a LONG time. Twenty dollar Target shoes aren't the best for that kind of walking, either...I think I have calluses on my pinky toes :P Not to mention how freezing it was. I think this is one of those nights where I'll be buried under several layers of blankets and still chilled until my shower tomorrow. I don't even have the energy to wash up or care about it. So here I sit. Resting my dead legs, buried under two blankets and eating ice cream.
It was pretty much amazing today.
There was me, Chelsea, Melissa, Megan, Sandy, Kristina and her boyfriend Andrei.
We went to the American Girl Doll Place, the Cheesecake Factory, the Art Institute and Millenium Park.
There was a LONG LONG LONG walk to the Americal Girl Doll Place. Once we got inside it, it was rather uneventful. Then was the Cheesecake Factory, where Kristina and Andrei met up with us...oh a good forty minutes late...they blame traffic. Sandy and I just wonder ;) The food was amazing...as was the cheesecake...Godiva! *dies* [long standing inside joke]
Then the Art Institute. And the miniature room =] really really adorable. Then Millenium Park. Which was fun.
Then we were goofing off and lost track of time and had to run over SEVERAL blocks to reach the train..and I mean RUN...and we got there literally three minutes before it left. If we hadn't made it, we would have had to wait until 1130 for the next train [it was 845]. Thankfully we made it. And I must add, it's rather an odd feeling to be sweating to death and unable to breathe yet freezing and unable to feel your hands at the same time.
It was an amazing awesome wonderful day. =]
Plans for the summer:
-See as many CSO performances as is humanly/monetarily possible
-Go to more free Mix concerts at Millenium Park
-Be familiar enough with Chicago so I could actually find my way around. I'm still at the mercy of those around me.
-See Wicked again!!!!!!!!!

OK there's LOT more where that came from. i think i'll end it here for everyone's sake. this is pretty freaking long. haha :)

lalala...

I'm pretty bored.
Really bored.
Kind of more than bored.
I've gotta call Sandy still. Other than that.. :P
I'm sitting downstairs with Melissa and Chelsea. We're watching Ocean's 11...which I've successfully and inadvertantly been ignoring..so I haven't the slightest what's going on besides the dude's name is Ocean and there was poker in the beginning. Go me.
It's still cold outside. I want summer!! I want warm! I want to wear my t shirt!
I want NY, too... :)
I'm getting really close to my half birthday. That'll mean six months til twenty. WIERD...
I don't want break to be done. But it almost is. Stupid time. Hopefully school will go fast...'cause then it will be summer... :)
I feel like running. And basking in a very warm sun.
I need to practice and look for a summer job.
I want to practice, actually.
But I don't like job searching.
Tonight is taco night. Slightly exciting.
I miss people.
That's the good part about school. It's sad when you have to go back, sometimes I just want to stay home, but there's always people that you miss that you get to see when you go back, so it makes that part a little happier :)
Melissa and I got Ben and Jerry's at the store today. I'm excited for that. And brownies to bake for Nate's first band competition. yay!
Wow. Movie's done and I still have no clue what happened. Heh. :P I'm a horrible procrastinator.
I WANT SUMMER! And warm! A tan! Short sleeves, capris, flip flops, swimming. Sunburn even! It's gray and cold and ick outside. I want to run across hot burning asphalt to get the mail, to go swimming at Sandy's and the waterpark, shopping in air conditioning and returning to a burning hot car. Sunglasses and frizzy hair that's been begrudgingly pulled back for the fifth time this week. Melting popsicles and not caring.
Darn wintery almost springish ness.

Happiness.

Today was great.
Went to see my Noni. Always happy.
Then we went shopping.
Heeee!
I found some really really cute shirts at JC Penny.
One is a dusty blue with lighter blue owls all over it. It's one of those baby doll style ones. And it's adorable.
The other is really dark blue with white dot stars and yellow star shaped stars.
And at Claire's I found one of those really really long necklaces you have to wrap around twice or else it will go bast your waist. It's little and silver with random silver hoops.
I was just gonna get earrings, but that caught my eye. :)
Also at JC Penny I tried on something completely out of character.
One of those demin mini skirts that's no more than six inches long.
Yeah. Completely fell in love with it. I actually am capable of pulling it off.
Fit me wonderfully in the waist, too.
Didn't get it. But boy was I tempted.
Only setback is it only looks okay when you're standing. Far to visible when sitting down or bending over.
But for Halloween...with those knee high brown leather heeled boots of mine that I saved for longer than I've saved up for anything...I could pull off a hooker...haha...
I don't know why I'm suddenly so tempted. And acting far off from what I normally do.
Maybe it's because I kind of feel like rebelling.
I'm getting at least one tattoo this fall, if not two, and my bellybutton pierced...my clothes have, in comparison to last year, become a little tighter and my shirts are far more low cut...I've suddenly got urges to buy things like six inch long mini skirts...not because I want to show skin, attract the wrong kind of attention, but because I just...want to.
Hm.
Maybe I'll invest in a mini skirt someday...
:)

Last night I dreamed that...

Wartburg had a marching band, and we were going to perform in the Illinois State Fair parade with my highschool marching band. We even had school buses to take us up there and Dr. Earl was coming along. I was really excited because I got to play piccolo and I was in the first row on the right, so everyone was guiding to me. And it was exciting.
Also, I was going to open a music store, and I had a name that was "music ___" and it rhymed and I kept waking up all night forgetting it for very extended periods of time, then I'd remember. But now I forgot again.
There was something about a chemistry test that was postponed and really easy.
Something about another ice storm that froze the water fountain that was running when it happened and caused icicles. I was walking somewhere with Sarah Wherry, and she had to scrape the icicles off of the fountain because she was scared of them. It made me mad because I thought they were cool looking.
And there was something about laundry...I was trying to do it before the parade, but Kari was in my way...and someone came in my room to tell me that the best time to do it was in the morning.
Exciting.

dinner tonight

My sides still hurt.
So tomorrow my mom is taking us to see my Noni. My brother will be in school, so he won't be able to come, so we've been keeping it quiet.
After dinner.
Me: [loudly] I could bring my computer and show them pictures!
My mom: [evil eye]
Me: [remembers Nate can't know] ....to the livingroom!
Everyone: [laughs]
My dad: It's a good thing she won't be working for the FBI. [moment later] There's a bug! In the lampshade! ...looks like a cockroach.
Everyone but me: [laughs hysterically]
Me: Wait...what? There's no lampshades! I don't understand! [five minutes later] OH! [dies]
*in case you didn't get that, as Melissa didn't either, it'd be like me in a room looking for a "bug" (listening device) and announcing where it is while the criminal could hear me. Then trying to pass it off as something different.
*earlier in the meal. We were talking about owls. I don't remember why. But Chelsea temporarily forgot what they looked like.*
Me: They're like geese. But without the necks.
Everyone: What? No they're not...
Me: Yeah! They're big birds...like geese...but they don't have the necks.
Melissa to Chelsea: You know, there was this farmer who thought his goose had too long a neck, so he chopped it off and sew-ed his head back on. And that's how geese started.
Everyone: [laughs]
Me: Sometimes...things just make sense in my head...and then I say them, and everyone else is confused.

It was a fun dinner. :D

Saturday, March 03, 2007

yay!

I am home. At last. Yahoo!
Sitting downstairs with my mother. Watching an old episode of our soap. The one where Dixie dies. Something tells me I'll be crying by the end of it.. :( Why Dixie???
The ride was rather uneventful. Really uneventful. But it's over for more than a week! Yay.
Went to Target and Micheal's earlier...had Aurelio's for dinner...made some cookies.
Chelsea and Melissa are settling in rather nicely. I'm driving them around town tomorrow to see everything that wonderful NL has...including a drive around the parking lot of my high school. Each of them had less than thirty people in their graduating class.
Thursday will be awesome...Chicago!!!
Other than that, nothing's really planned.
I'll be sleeping a lot tonight...catching up on many missed hours. MANY missed hours over the past several days.
It's good to be home.

randomness

The weather is crap today. Rainy and cold and puddly. :P It's a good night for tea.
I found a new pastime that is rather hilarious: doing the voice of Gollum while Chelsea is reading The Hobbit. Ha! It was brilliant. :) Just ask. And I'll impersonate.
I'm soo ready for break right now. REALLY ready. I just want it to be here. It will be amazing. :D
Not too much is new. Just kind of felt like rambling. Band will be fun today. But run out has been rescheduled for Monday evening, and I have a French test...I'm going to see if I can have that rescheduled, but idk if it will work. I really hope it does work. *sigh* I'll have to see.
And a little side note...
To life:
Why must you be so cruel? Seriously. Some people are just so lucky with everything that's been thrown at them, and that's wonderful and great. But I've seen others that recently cannot have a decent week to save their life right now. And it's frustrating me. Because none of it is within anyone's control. I know life is meant to not be fair, but this is beyond ridiculous!! They deserve a break that lasts for more than a day more than anything!!!! Do I need to hire Chuck Norris to beat some sense into you? >=P
Armed with a baseball bat:
me.

Crap. I'm late, I'm late for a very important date! *runs off*
