Well, Twilight vampires are pathetic excuses for vampires. Give me Spike from Buffy or Eric Northman from True Blood. ;) |

Of summer, that is. Well, things are winding down. School begins on Thursday, and I'm not sure how I feel about it. Junior Year is the hardest, they say. I hope I can excel. I'm more confident in my writing ability after Simon's Rock (the Young Writers' Workshop, which is just phenomenal!), so that should definitely help me. In addition, I'm getting SAT tutoring to help me. It's quite frustrating (the math, anyway), but I'm slowly making my way through it.
My hair is pink! Hot pink. It feels great being able to see pink through my peripheral vision. And YAY for being sixteen. Unfortunately, I've basically missed my opportunity to get a permit because my mum's only willing to take me in the morning. Ah well.
Hmmm. What else? I can't think of much. I'll try to keep you posted (as if you care).

| Things Are Looking Up! |
[Apr. 9th, 2008|07:40 pm] |
Where to begin?
So, it's been a very long time since my last update. However, I have tons of news! Last time I posted, I was just getting ready for Long Winter Weekend. Time flew by, and next thing I knew, it was Spring Break! The first Saturday in, my mom and I decided to take a spur-of-the-moment vacation to London for five days! Needless to say, it was amazing there. I took many great photographs, and although there was a ton of walking, I enjoyed myself immensely. Everything is so different in Europe, and there is no doubt in my mind that I'm moving there when I'm older.
Also during Spring Break, I went with Martha to see The Phantom of the Opera in New York City! Visually, it was absolutely phenomenal. I bought myself Urban Decay eyeshadow (Color: 'Strip') and a Phantom poster which was signed by the entire cast.

I have one-half of a day left and then no more school until Tuesday. Oh, Long Winter Weekend, how I love thee. Unfortunately, I have to go in during my sleep-in to make up a math test I missed last week. No matter!
I've been spending all of my free time watching Buffy season 7. I am such a slacker. In my defense, I haven't seen the episodes since they first aired back in 2002/2003. Although it really doesn't feel like it, it's been about four years. It seems way less in the distant past than that.
Tomorrow I may be going to the mall with Grace. I have to pick up my new glasses, anyway. I could use some other things too...
I should be doing homework...or studying. Naaaaaaaaaah.

Now for a long rant on why my life is crappy.
Just shortly after my mental situation, I got the freaking stomach flu. Oh, lovely.
That was quite short, actually. Whatever. I go now. |

Last Wednesday, I had a panic attack. I have yet to determine what caused it. The only thing I do know, however, is that I haven't been able to shake it. I'm emotionally numb--that is to say, I can't really feel anything but sadness or extreme panic. My appetite is miniscule, but I eat anyway. This is such bullshit. I've been doing so well, and now this has to get in the way of everything.
I am über swamped with work. I had a debate all day yesterday, and I had another mini-panic attack during that. I crashed and burned on my first debate. The second didn't go much better. I killed the third, but the emotional damage was done.
At times like these, I am so thankful to have friends who care about me. I have no clue what I'd do without John, Grace, Kathleen, Emma, Martha, Xenia, or Steph. Much love to them.
My mom is finally home. She was in New Jersey from Thursday to yesterday. I missed her so much. If I can recall, I'd start randomly saying, "I want my mommy." I reverted back to a childlike state. It was very unsettling. But she's back now and I don't have school today. Well, I would have, but I don't care about the required workshop thing at the moment. What I need to focus all of my energy on is being up-to-date on my assignments.
Ok, enough of my rant now. Time to be productive.

So, I saw Sweeney Todd tonight. It is a fantastic work of art. The art direction was so superb. The singing voices weren't bad at all! The whole movie had such an ethereal feel about it. Although the blood was very fake looking, it worked. Seeing Sweeney's journey from perturbed to cracked was great. And HBC did a great job. Her features just work for the type of movie. She did a fantastic job in "By the Sea."
The only downside to all of this is cramping. OUCH. |

My chem exam grade ruined my semester. Now I'm not on high honors and that means I can't get junior cum laude. *sigh* I worked so hard, too...
But, I feel great because I made my own dinner! Yay noodles! Yay chopsticks!!
I'm done now. |

*stretches*
I'm free. No more school until January the third, 2008! This year has flown by. I've also noticed that the autumn is always the crappiest time of the year. My dad had triple bypass heart surgery and that made me count my blessings. He's fine now. He'll be starting work again in January. You have no idea how much that took a toll on my everyday life. Scary shit.
My latest obsession is stickam.com. I got a laptop for Jubugankah, so I've been using it for everything.
All and all, I can't complain. |

| ZOMG! SNOW! |
[Jan. 18th, 2007|08:10 pm] |
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS. FINALLY--NORMAL winter weather! This makes me so happy! I ran around in the yard for fifteen minutes with Rugby. He likes the snow. The last time we played in it together was last March, when he was three months old. Aww...he used to be such a little fuzzball.
I'm also THRILLED because I have no Double Physics next week! That makes my life so much better. I mean, it's good already, but the elimination of Double Physics (even for one week) is glorious!
We actually had a music rehearsal today. I thought there would be no more of those...just drama and dancing. A month and change to go. |

I haven't been cold all day, and it's been under 20 degrees Fahrenheit for the majority of it. Now, I'm in the basement, and COLD. My hands and feet are numb. That's all it takes for me to be cold, as I have poor circulation.
So, I GET TO HOLD A PITCH FORK! YESSSSSSSS. You can guess why.
Too cold to type anymore. |

| A Long Overdue Update...Sort of. |
[Jan. 15th, 2007|08:38 pm] |
Damn. It's been five days since my last update! I'm not sure if I can remember it all. I'll try my best.
We started doing the dances for the musical. So far we've done Slap That Bass and Entrance to Nevada. Tomorrow we're doing Stiff Upper Lip. I'm quite enjoying this. Shimmying and shaking my ass and whatnot. No, it's not THAT promiscuous. However, I think I'd be enjoying it far more if I were more flirtatious. I am shy, unassertive, and well...I've never had a guy go up to me.
There's nothing exciting to report about before Saturday. Well, on the twelfth, my half brother turned thirty. To me, thirty seems so...old. Then again, I'm about half way there.
On Saturday, I got to school at 10:00 AM for a Debate meeting. There were only four of us present, but I think we got a lot of work done. It kinda sucked going in on a weekend, but I'd have to be there at 1:15 to get picked up for rehearsals. In my downtime, I walked to Starbucks with Kathleen and Olivia. It was my first Starbucks ever. It was a light Caramel Frappucino. I'm not sure what I thought of it. I tried Kathleen's, and it tasted fine, but mine just tasted really strongly of coffee.
After that, I went to rehearse. There were only four girls there including myself, but all the guys were there. It was HILARIOUS. One guy (Alvinn) is playing a character named Bobby, who collapsed in the desert. He's being carried into a saloon by two other cowboys, and while we weren't being serious, they started doing the can-can! And then, I was a cuckoo clock who got shot (it's part of the scene, don't ask). No, I'm not playing a cuckoo clock. Anyway, we're trying to find an exploding cuckoo clock. It should be interesting. And then, another guy, Price, was making funny noises. I love this. Haha.
Sunday I vegged. Today, I had my triple lunch, and watched a video made two years ago about a bunch of teachers doing the One-Two Step. Hilarious!!!! I completed all of my homework. Awesome. Tomorrow is yucky. At least I get a sleep-in 'cause Mr. Mooney forgot to hand back our tests last semester (he gambles with us, and if he forgets, he gives us stuff). Double Physics...NOOOOOOOO. Ah well.
I've rambled too much. G'night! |

|
| Hmph. |
[Jan. 10th, 2007|04:39 pm] |
I was supposed to be picked up an hour ago. Now I have to wait for another twenty minutes. I hope Mom's okay. =[
I danced a lot today. My timing is SO off. It's like I'm right-handed and left-footed. I do the opposite of everyone else. It sucks. And my dance parter scares me. I want another!!
Anyway...I'll leave my short entry at that. Maybe I'll add another later. |

Slap That Bass, from the musical. How did you like my mock Hungarian/German typed accent? For this song, I'll be dancing on a ladder. Oh, help me.
Tomorrow, we'll be doing more dancing. Whoopee.
Ok, Hyvää yötä.

Tomorrow's Tuesday, my worst day of the week. Fucking fuck fuck fuckity fucking fuck. DOUBLE PHYSICS. I seriously hope my teacher is still sick. I can't deal with 100 minutes of Physics!!!!!! Not to mention, I have no frees.
At least I'm smart. I did tomorrow night's algebra homework. It was so easy. Yay for scientific notation! |

Hmmm. I was too lazy to make a subject for this entry. I actually have no idea what I'm gonna be saying, so bear with me.
Mhm...listening to Rammstein, believes it or not, calms me. I'm strange; get over it.
I just watched a film from 1964 entitled "The Umbrellas of Cherbourg." It was very interesting, but very bittersweet at the same time. I'm not sure what I think of it, but the colors...ouch. Very loud.
I'm so bad. At least I now have Synkkien laulujen maa. That's all I'm saying...
Ok. I go now.

I got my hair cut, and I fucking love it now. I actually have bangs (fringe,to you non-American types). Sorry...loosely quoting Monty Python there.
I have one song from the musical stuck in my head. It won't get out. Ironically, it's called "I Can't be Bothered Now." However, it's bothering me. Confusing, no?
Sadly, there was no immersion program to Finland. I'm trying to convince my parents to send me to the one in Germany/The Czech Republic. If that one fills up, I'll apply for the one in Scotland. I REALLY want to go. The only problem is that we need financial aid, but they might not give it to us because my dad's a lawyer. My mom doesn't work, though. We're pretty short on money lately, so financial aid would be great. A month in Deutschland....*squee* It would be amazing if I somehow ran into Chris Pohl and Constance Rudert of BlutEngel. Becca would KILL me if that happened.
I've babbled enough. Näkemiin.

My mama has pneumonia. I'm scared. She feels really shitty, and is having problems breathing [she's asthmatic as well]. I know that it's treatable now, and that she won't die. However, the fact that it does kill people on occasion frightens me. At least it's not contagious.
Anyway, Leonard has a girlfriend. Awwwwwwww. He said that he can trust me. Do you know how good that feels? Having someone who you KNOW trusts you? I'm still not completely over him, but I'm just happy for him, as a friend should be.
I'm very pleased that I didn't have a lot of homeowrk tonight. I got to have more "me time" than usual. I just wish there wasn't that convocation thing. I got home at eight. Not cool.
I'm off. I must go to sleep at a reasonable hour tonight.
Näkemiin!
