I am so depressed right now. All I've been talking about for the past two and a half years has been 'Singing for the Actor.' I have wanted to take this class for the longest time and everyone knows it. So I got into the class and I've been working really hard, because, frankly, I'm not  a singer. I'm just not. But that's what I'm here trying to ( Read more... )

Ellen has livejournal! Yay! What I really appreciate about this fact is that the entry Ellen posted is flawlessly written. I'm always very apprehensive to read things that friends have posted online because if it has a ton of grammatical errors, my respect for them goes down. It's an awful truth, but there you have it. I don't want this to be ( Read more... )

Justine and I have discovered something awful. The Book, the world's last bastion against technology, is being turned into a palm-pilot-like-device. I saw it myself at Borders. Sony (and I think a few other companies) has come up with this awkward looking hand-held thing with a screen. You load the 'book' cartridge in the back like a video game.  ( Read more... )

Has anyone ever had any experience where they really admire someone for all these great qualities for a really long time, only to discover randomly one day that the person isn't half-so great as you thought they were? That happened to me last night. It's disappointing and strangely freeing at the same time. I was talking to someone I had long ( Read more... )

Justine wasn't able to make it today. Woe. She is sick. Alas and alack. So I had to go downtown with my Mamma all by my onesie. However, I was able to buy a book written by none other than Hugh Laurie. House wrote a book. Go figure. It looks really good, and is called The Gun Seller. It's a spoof on all secret agent novels, so I'm hoping that Bond ( Read more... )

So, apparently my subconscious did not like the idea of sleeping alone in my room, because I woke up this morning to a mess. At some point during my sleep, I must have decided that I needed booby-traps. When I arose, there was a chair by the door again, and another one right near it that just didn't quite make it the whole way. I had my backpack ( Read more... )

So, the bank was a great summer gig, but I'm so happy to be back at SMC. I'm with the boy, I'm away from my parents, and I'm back with the ladies. Also, I  can do things of an academic nature, which is heaven for me ( Read more... )

I stole the following meme from Meg-Gonn. I would also like to point out that I got up early this morning, watched Xena, and discovered it to be horrible, and horribly good, all at the same time. What's the world to do?

Hi, my name is: Abby, and I'm addicted to tea.

Never in my life have I been: A sibling. I'd say, "Woe," but I'd be lying.

The one ( Read more... )

While I'm waiting for Phil to call, I thought I'd steal Meg's thingy from the other day. Enjoy.

Name 11 people you can think of right off the top of your head. Don't read the questions underneath until you write the names of all 11 people. This is a lot funnier if you actually randomly list the names first.

1. Phil
2. Meg
3. Justine
4. Sara
5. Caroline
