One more midterm left. Then the last semester of my high school career. THANK GOD!

I decided that I'm going to write my Ithaca essay on the current controversy with the school board and how pitiful it is. I've got a few things to say about it. So I might as well make the most of what I have to say and get into college with it. Heh.

I'm very excited about Fat Night Follies tomorrow now. It is rumored that it will be the last Fat Night at CHS, which doesn't surprise me one bit. I will be performing in an orginal skit written by Maria, Matt, and myself called "A Search for a Principal" at the end of Act 1 and I will be singing "Gimme Gimme" as the second to last act of the show. It should be very entertaining times had by all. Watch for my sister (strwberrychelly) singing "Suddenly Seymour" with Nick (east_coast) as well as "Surabaya Santa" at the opening of Act 2. Matt (spedyboy18) and Eddie are doing a Nick and Jessica parody... muhahahaha. Time Machine returns along with Hyper Hypo (my two favorites!). It will behoove you to make an appearance to what might be the final Fat Night Follies at Centennial. Tickets are $5. Shows start at 7:30 on both Friday and Saturday. :)

Other CHS drama news... Bells auditions are next week... AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! I'm so nervous! Extremely! I have so much riding on this. I can't screw up!

Then, next Saturday... I have my Syracuse audition. The most important audition for me. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

The next week I will be in tech week for Director's Showcase. Both of my pieces are in Act 1, which kind of blows. But oh well. I need to get off book for my scene. But anyways, I'm only doing both pieces on Friday night, so it'll be done and over with. Then my song on Saturday and I'm finished for CHS shows until April, hopefully.

After DS, I have an easy week of school... then... Ithaca audition. Which is really stressful because they give you a 4 minute maximum for intro, 2 songs, and 2 monologues. Talk about tough...

But after I'm finished with that audition, mom and I will speed over to Troy and spend the rest of the weekend with John :D WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! On V-Day too!!! :D <3 It's so very very wonderful. I can't wait for it. I want it now.

The weekend after my John trip, I have one final college audition at Penn State. Then I sit back and wait to hear from all the schools. Ah!!!! Craziness.

Oh! I have a job for the summer. I'm back over at DLC as an assisant director. All 3 sessions. It'll be crazy, but fun. :) I still can't believe this will be my last summer living at home. When the summer is over, I'll be going back to school either in New York, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, or... Maryland. But not here Maryland. It's so crazy. So surreal.

The year is half over. Senior year is going by so quickly. So much has happened... changed... finished. I look at the people I'm friends with at school and it's a surprisingly small number. Which doesn't bother me. It would have last year. But I realize that I'm leaving. And I'd rather leave with a handful of people I truly love and care about who will stick with me in the long run than several meaningless friends with people I don't like too much. The one friendship this year that I am most grateful to have reconciled is Matt. By far. I don't think any one can understand what Matt means to me. Our history. Our chemistry. Our love and caring for each other. He's my twin brother that got separated at birth. I remember a convo we had a while back when we just kind of realized that next year will be the first in 6 years when we didn't go to school together. And I almost started crying. It didn't matter whether we were friends, enemies, significant others, acquaintances... it was always the two of us. Besides Ann, Matt is the only person who has been with me through it all here in Maryland. He is home to me. He knows little things about me, little nuances, peeves, habits, attitudes, reactions... that others don't notice. That comes from 6 years of friendship. I can't even begin to tell you all the shit we've been through together. How we've grown as people. How we've changed and helped each other find out what we're about. I'm so proud of him for getting in college and for how much he has grown this year alone. And I don't think I can thank him enough for having the understanding and love to let me back into his life after our shitty year this past year. We needed that year to be apart. I don't regret my decisions last year. Because it helped us in the long run. It wasn't right to force a friendship that was too tense and frail. We both grew up a lot during our time apart. And when we came back together, the timing was just right. We were both in the place to have a last hurrah. I don't want to think about what senior year would be like without Matt. I've always pictured Matt by my side in our senior year. And I'm so happy that it's real. :)

So now that I purged one part of my soul... I think it's time to cram my head with some psych so I pass my exam tomorrow.
