"when she talks, she moves her mouth, instead of her lips"
I guess I could stand to update this thing more often.
So, this past week both flew by and dragged incesently. The funny part of it is this was only a 4 day week. Tuesday was the first day.
So Wednesday morning/day/night we got the rain part of all those hurricanes. It rained pretty much the whole day, stopped for a little bit, and then picked back up again. I tolerated the rain for the most part, and just as I'm getting ready to go to bed early at 11:30, my mom comes up, wakes up my dad, and says, "There's a ton of water in the basement. It wasn't there a half an hour ago." A ton is an understatement. Four inches of water in pretty much the entire one half of the basement, and then 2ish inches in the rest. We cracked open one drain that had been previously clogged, and started trying to push water into that. My dad busted out a pool pump we use, as well as a shop-vac, to try and get all that water out.
Two hours later, the water level was lowering, and then rising again, so, after cleaning, dragging carpeting out, and vaccuming up some water, and some shed tears(not really) at the loss of our pump, which overheated and broke, I collapsed in bed around 3am. My alarm went off at 5:50am, and I told my mom to write me an excuse to go in later, and slept until 9. I ghosted it through the day at school, just wondering to classes, because my head felt really heavy. Turns out I'm probably sick/on my way to being sick. Such a very fun time.
Now also this week were tryouts for our fall musical, The Music Man. Results were in today, and I got chorus, again. Usually, seniors get leads, or semi-leads, but not this year. I am insanely pissed/annoyed at this fact, but I can't let it bother me too much. Stiles will just have to let go work AND the play practices. And he should, since he obviously didn't like me enough to give me a part that means anything. So yea, only other thing I'm going to say is not many people are happy with what they got/what others got, and I heard some people went and complained.
Tonight was the football game against South Western, were we had to go over to Altoona's field because all bets are off on when they'll be finishing laying the turf on ours. We lost tonight in football, but I think we played pretty well in band. Ah well. I was hindered by the sickness. So after the game, I sat in and half listened/half sang some verses of Misery(band song), which we(the seniors) are currently trying to bring back the tradition of. Man it's been a year since I heard that song. It was great. Then everybody sung a bunch of other songs on the way back on the bus, and I think I'm definitely going to like my bus this year, unlike last year.
After the game, I ended up meeting at Ashley's and lying on her driveway while we waited for Drew. Then, going to Drew's house with everyone and laying on the floor. I am very, very tired.
One more thing of current happening that cannot go unmentioned. Current unrest in my group of friends is plaguing my everyday existance. I certainly hope we all resolve this crap soon, because the negative energy is getting to me, especially in my judgement, wittyness, and all that other fun stuff about me, which has been altered by sickness.
2 more things:
This makes me happy. Hardly anyone describes me this way, and it's something I never really thought about, but I imagine it is sort of true:
"Sometimes i envy you because you don't seem to have the slightest fear of rejection. You're always willing to put yourself out there and never seem to let anything/one affect you negatively. Am i way off here? If so don't tell me because i like thinking of you like that. I feel like i should know you better, but you're not one to update every two minutes with "My mood ring just shifted half a shade- let me tell you all about it!" kind of stuff. I'd say you should update more frequently, but how hypocritical."
Thanks, happysponge. I'll be updating more now that you said that, and you should definitely give me your yahoo, aim, email, whatever. Do it!
Then there's one more. I'm featured in Erin W. from Europe's profile thinger, and it makes me happy, so I decided I'd post it. This description/shoutout is more like how people describe me, but it's coo anyway:
"Man are you hilarious. I loved talking to you at the ferry port- because you let me vent and then you made me laugh. You are just hysterical. Your famous picture pose- if you don't know what pose I'm talking about- you're crazy. I remember the first day on the bus to our Switzerland hotel- you, Matt and I debated politics for a long time. Well my mom always told me never to debate politics and religion with friends- but we did both! Guess that means you're pretty awesome. I love you! "
Horray for blurbs that make me happy.
Well, this was a nice, long entry. I do hope everyone did take the time to read it. It was sort of a random, nothing entry. But then again, I guess that's what livejournals are for. I should definitely utalize that and update more, or something. Yes.
