This morning I met with Mrs. P for mass or whatever, sat there and did homework, and she was basically like "So...you guys don't need to rehearse do you?" Haha. She's...freaken spazzy. But it's alright. And I chilled with Caitie and some sophomores for like, .2 seconds beforehand, and wandered around with a 24-pack of toilet paper for spirit day looking for Marysia. Haha. Um...and there were student council elections again today because we lost Carly...I read Bridget's speech...yeah.
Sophie made me a super-cool (*with french accent) sign in french. She made my day at lunch, too. I love her.
Loads of people complimented my shoes today. I never really thought they were all that interesting, though I like them.
Meg dePippio wore scrubs today. That's freaken cute.
A zillion people have strep. Ugh.
Part of Clasquin's prayer today: "Help us to remember that this is not all that there is." I sat there and thought about that line for like, ten minutes. Random things grab my attention, even if there's not much to them.
Sr. Karlien, towards the end of class today when everyone was working in partners and stuff, asked me if I was in any shows right now. I guess I didn't know she knew I was into theatre, or that she took the time to remember that or something. So she asked a bunch of questions about Grease, and she knows Max Mooney from Christmas Carol. Hehe! She asked when Grease is. I wonder if she'd come.
I ate like a horse at lunch. Sort of. But the lunch line was so long that I talked to Elaine and Laura Fleig. I love having random conversations with people. They often make my day, at least for a little while.
Shannon passed her driver's test! Wooo!
Lab today was hilarious. Em and I were partners, and we had to connect some rubber hose thing up to the sink, but there were no working sinks with the right nozzle left, so we waited SO long. It was just getting to be funny. We started to put burning matches on the flame-proof lab table and watch them go out, and personify the rubber policeman that we weren't using because we weren't doing anything. *siren noise* It was a close encounter with the rubber policeman. The lab was sort of cool for like, a few seconds when we poured AgNO3 into a solution we made and all the AgCl fell out. As you poured it, the liquid immediately looked milky, and then sediment just like, fell to the bottom. It was SWEET. And then Emily and I toasted ours because it sat over the bunsen burner for a year and a half while we waited.
On my way home, I noticed these random brown patches on my fingers. Sooo...the AgNO3 was exposed to sunlight and turned brown on my hands. Yesss sketchy chemicals.
After school, I went to Trev's. We ordered a pizza and played Halo. Halo got like, freaken intense, and we were stuck half the time. And Trevor just shoots my guy to get him out of the way. It's...mean?
Grease was like, ok. We 'blocked' the Look at Me, I'm Sandra Dee reprise and Raining on Prom Night. For some reason, I was like, one living mental block tonight. I screwed up everywhere, but I just in general was hardly acting. At one point, Jean had to tell me in this awkward, roundabout way not to indicate, and I was like, so embarrassed for myself. I was making mistakes I should not have been making, and like...I don't know, it was weird. It was a really empty performance on my part tonight. I left sort of disappointed, but not really desiring to do much to fix it. I mean, I do want to, but I wasn't like "I can work on this! And characterize Sandy! Yayy!" I was just like, blank, which makes me wonder how much I actually like acting. What do I like about it? What don't I? I was very confused.
I came home and wrote more song, sang more Send in the Clowns, and...ish-worked on Grease music. And did homework.
Weeks feel very long. I'm ready for this one to be done.
