amy k. lessons. yes thats right. im gonna get lessons from amy k. !!!! AMY K~!!!! do u kno how big this is livejournal? its tres big. and aunt b. is paying for it. imagine that! she casually mentioned it in the car, but that means nothing so i called her and shes like yeah totally u set it up and ill write the checks. i know its not great to get involved with aunty like this cause she'll hold it over my head but still. i want this so bad. its a giant step forward (or a leap back) im being opptimistic. lol and today we went on an inde film fest and saw the wild parrots of telegraph hill. it was so sad!!! but frickin hilarious at the same time. lol mingus was the best. that was by far the best documentary on birds ever, but it had like two shots of humming birds and i had a full bladder. u figure it out.

well its 914 now and my parents were supposed to be back so i could go running. im not alloud out if they arent here. weird but yeah thats how it is. i cant wait to get some projects to do on my sewing machine!!!!!!!!! genuine singer baby.
