Happy New Year

MIMI
I couldn't crack the love code dear
Till you made the lock on my hear explode
It's gonna be a happy new year
~*~"Happy New Year" Rent

I was just thinking... Crap. What was I thinking? Oh right right right. I'm talking to my dear friend Carly, who I met at the con, and I'm thinking about con.

I already miss being at con, and the next one isn't until the end of January. :( There's lots of people there who are just fun to be around and talk to. Gosh... I miss everone who was in my touch group, and silent football people, and people I just met other ways, and getting to spend time with Al and Mandy... I miss you guys!

And the power went out at school yesterday, so we didn't get to have GSA after school. Although it also meant I didn't have speech practice with Morain, the nazi! I did go see her today before I went to practice though... I need to start getting my speech written. It has to be memorized in 2 1/2 weeks, and it doesn't even exist yet! But I think I would have rather had GSA and speech than had neither. I missed GSA last week cause I was sick on Tuesday.

Speaking of being sick on Tuesday, I made up that dance class on Monday, so I had dance 2 days in a row, and I pulled a muscle in my left leg yesterday. Fun fun fun. Spent a lot of time talking to blondie. And we got to learn part of the choreography for Thriller. That was fun too.

Okay well I'm being kicked off now. So I'll write later... whever I get a chance, I guess.

Seasons Of Love

SOLOIST
In truths that he learned
Or in times that she cried
In the bridges he burned
Or the way that she died

ALL
It's time now to sing out
Though the story never ends
Let's celebrate remember a year
In the life of friends

So we enter ACT II. You will all be happy to know there are only 16 more songs left. Hahaha. Yeah. Only 16. Anyway.

The song brings up the interesting topic of friends... Oh what a subject, one I always find myself thinking about. Why am I so bad at choosing friends? Or is it that I'm so desperate that I just have to latch onto whoever I can find? I know I'm a hard person to get along with... I'm opinionated and I have a strong personality. In fact, in the car on the way home from dance yesterday, my mom said she thinks I scare the shit out of some people. While that is extremely amusing, it's unfortunate that I don't have friends. I'm not changing though. I like who I am. What fun would it be to be artificial??? (I sense a poem coming on...)

Anyway. So yeah. Not been in the greatest mood lately. Sounds like I'll be busy this weekend... speech practice on Friday, ushering, the show Saturday, ushering, church Sunday, ushering, over to Alex's house, ushering, possible party with cast members to follow. Not much halloween festivities for Z. Oh well. It's *not* like Halloween is my favorite holiday or anything...

Leslie have the most awesomest time ever on Saturday! I'm sooo jealous I can't believe it! AHHH! Can't wait for ALLL the details upon your return... Yeah. And happy week-late birthday...

Um, have a good Halloween, everybody, I guess. I'll just go sulk now... Nah. I'm not letting people get me down. I'll go dance or play guitar, or write something. Hum.

WOW! I haven't posted in forever! I've been so friggin busy and I have so much to say and, as usual, no time to say it. Lemme see the quickest summary I can give you of what I've done and what I'm up too, just in case it's 2 more weeks before I post again.

Been busy with speech, play, drama class, dance, and GSA. Spent Columbus Day weekend in Wisconsin visiting family. Spent last weekend in Springfield for a con. Muy bueno.

Going to "Innocents" rehearsal and babysitting on Saturday. Have church and then RENT! on Sunday. Next weekend ushering on friday, going to see Sweeny Todd on Saturday (possibly ushering) Halloween party and possible ushering on Sunday. Sound busy enough? I thought so.

Yeah, that's really what I'm up to though. Plus homework, and I went to mathletes yesterday. So! I've been doing a few things.

Oh oh oh oh oh oh! I got a puppy on Sunday! His name is Kramer and he's a beagle and he turned 8 weeks old on Tuesday. I love my puppy! Oooh and I love Josh! And I guess Jake, cause I get to taste his rainbow (??? don't ask).

I went to the orthodontist today and got my bottom brackets put on. That was a laugh and a half. Oy. But I got out of the first 3 periods of the day so it's all good. I g2g now and finish editing my story for english. See you all when I see you!

I Should Tell You

ROGER
I should tell you I'm disaster
I forget how to begin it

MIMI
Let's just make this part go faster
I have yet to be in it
~*~"I Should Tell You" RENT

I have so much I would say right now but I just don't have time. I'm so frickin busy lately that I don't have time to talk to people. I have drama rehearsals Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I have GSA and dance on Tuesday. I have drama class on Thursday. I have speech meetings. On the weekends (and some weeknights) I usher at the theatre. Sundays I go to church. And in my spare time (spare being a loosely used term) I have plenty of homework to do. And starting very soon, I will also have rehearsal for "The Innocents" which is the play I'm understudying in at ITC. Oy I'm tired. But I have to go... because right now, I do have to go to work.

Damn. I had tons of poems to post, but I can't do that now. Maybe later today... my homework's done and I'm not ushering at the evening show tonight. We'll see.
