I really feel like singing. I hate when I get that urge; it's always at some weird time when I couldn't sing.
I can't get out of my head enough to write right now. Yikes.
Friday started off as an iffy day. So I wore kneesocks again. It was really hard to get through Friday for some reason.
Spirit day assembly in the morning. A handful of veteran teachers wrapped the new ones up in toilet paper. The pairs were really funny: Trost and Leni (who look freaken alike), Shlurf (sp?) and Yenny (the two men-men), Sr. Pat and Ms. Bianchi (the theatric ones), Mr. N and someone, and Mr. Giehl and someone. Mr. Giehl is the funniest/most adorable thing ever. Haha. He cracks me up. He was loving the attention, and he cracked some lame joke...I wish I could remember what it was. Oh, and our spirit leader...lots of spirit. The seniors have Julie and Anne. I couldn't have seen that coming. They're hilarious. Kerry and I are probably gonna run for spirit leaders next year. We'll see what happens. We'll probably lose to Molly and Courtney or something.
The math quiz was significantly easier than I expected.
Someone mentioned in school that it was the last day of summer, and I was very disappointed.
We got our summer reading tests back. I did really well, but Clasquin left me a bunch of comments that basically refuted a lot of what I said. It was weird. Holy shit! I have books that are days overdue! NOOO! So much money to the library! DAYS overdue! Damnit! Anyway (ughh), Clasquin also told me to write bigger. Haha I'll try, but I can't, and it doesn't matter how big it is: it'll still look disgusting.
Whoever drew the spirit day booklets definitely made the freshman on the front resemble Juliet Ellison. I promise you.
In orchestra. I picked up. A form. For the RBTL master class. If Coleen by some grace of GOD was someone who taught it...I would diediediediediedie. Just thinking about her, I like, melt into a thousand one pieces. The actor who makes me a lesbian...
Wisdom personified in the Bible is a woman. Haha.
Leni asked me to play at the spirit gala. I'd really like to, but with Christmas Carol, I won't be able to. I'm really disappointed. I could've written it down as a conflict...but I don't know when it is, or if I'm positively doing it, or anything. So I couldn't. But she said that she saw I had an interest in alto, and she'd find me one and teach me to play it!! NOT FAIRRRR! I think it's nice she offered to teach me, though. Lately, I've warmed up to her...the tiniest bit. She has a ways to go still, I guess. Oh! And I guess Ms. Miles is in the Perinton Concert Band, soooo we get to go see her! Oh and other random orchestra thing: we're playing through that Stille Nacht we did like...years ago. Ughhh. Anyway, though, Kerry's piano part is so pretty. I forgot how pretty. It's the most well-written part of the whole piece. If we sounded better, that piece would be gorgeous, but I don't think it could ever get there.
Lab was hysterical. First of all, because the lab tables are flame-proof, Em, Krysta, and I made a match bonfire. It was so so funny. And we burned a match down to the end! Woooo! It was...exciting waiting for a sink. Yep. Toasting our precipitate to a crisp while we wait. It's cool. Anyway, we finished last, and are rushing to clean up...Teri spills a highly flammable chemical all over the place. I tried to clean it up inconspicuously so Ms. Fine wouldn't notice, but I definitely soaked the box of filter paper in acetone. Um....oops? Haha. It was hilarious at the time, for some reason. I think I'll really like chem this year, I guess. But we got like...tons of fucking homework. Ohhh my God. A bunch of lab stuff, a test Monday (ahhh! I have to studyyy!) and an assignment due Monday...I can't do that right now. By now I mean this weekend. Whoa shit...so much work. And I'm like, only taking two APs...Krysta's taking freaking three.
The end of the day was really funny because like...so I bought a theory book for orchestra, right? I lost it and then Em and I went down to the bookstore to see if I left it there...the door was shut like it often is after school, so Em randomly threw her water bottle at the door because we were complaining about it. It was SO loud, and then I laughed even louder. As we were walking away, Mrs. Curtin sticks her head out of her door. Haha! Em was already down the hall, so I just kind of glanced over at her casually like it wasn't me or something and walked away. Awwwwkward. And hilarious. She's going to hate me forever now. She'll never give me my theory book.
Fantasticks cast= good. I'm pleased. And Emily got a role! Thank freaking God! Only Mercy girl...go Em! And Charlie got cast, too.
I honestly don't remember what I did after school, but I went to rehearsal...I talked to Brad, blocked some stuff, and talked to Ted who I really like. Ughh I really like him! He's really nice, and he's funny and not like...awkward like a bunch of the cast members. I love how he plays Eugene too. I LOVE it.
This morning, Em came over and we worked on her song. I wish I could play the piano better; I would've been more help. But it was good enough. She sounded so good. I can't even believe how far she's gotten in the past like, year even. She really can belt. When she does it, it really is a belt; it's not like me, how I fake it. She really can, and it's gorgeous as hell. I sort of wish she didn't have to leave. I need more of her in my life. I randomly like, miss her right now. She's my buddy.
Then I went to SOTA for rehearsal...I enjoyed it today. Sometimes I'm in the zone acting-wise, and sometimes I'm like "Nope...today's not my day I guess..." Mary Kate and I decided that we're going to audition for Honk too. We both auditioned for that show when we auditioned for Tykes, and we still really want to do it. I like her a lot. And Marleeeena. And our stage manager...she's adorable.
When I got home, I wasted time, did minimal schoolwork, and napped. It was one of those fuzzy naps where I kept waking up. It was so calming though.
Then I went to my audition. They took me in like, right away. It was nice to see Don again, and Emma. Kirsten wasn't at my audition. The two of them are so nice. It's like, not even funny. And Emma just strikes me as really genuine all the time. Not like Don doesn't (haha), but that's just what I notice about Emma. So I sang Send in the Clowns...it was ok. I felt like my acting was terribly awkward, and I thought I only sang ok. My voice was warmed up enough, though. The nap, for once, made my voice like...better. Isn't that weird? She reacted so like, blah to it, that I couldn't tell if it was a "Yeah, I know what you sound like." or a "That was...bad." Cause then Don asked me who I studied with, and I told him, and I told him I might switch, and he asked if I worked on the song with my teacher or not...I thought that meant it was horrible, like "Did you actually...work on this with anyone?" Emma said Send in the Clowns is one of her favourite songs, though. Haha. I realized today that I really like it too. I did pick it because I thought it was good for this audition, but I actually really, really love it, too. It's easy to relate to, as well. But I guess it was good because Kirsten called me later and said that they wanted to cast me, so I didn't have to go to callbacks, and they want to single cast me in the part I had last year. I'm putting this in the middle of a paragraph to mention it, but I'm actually sort of hoping eveyrone skims my entries and no one notices. I was really thrilled. I'm nervous...my work will DIE and I couldn't do flute choir, I'm sure. And I have to work out the school Christmas concert...Oh well. I honestly don't think they did that because I'm so fabulous or anything. Honest to God, I'm fairly objective with myself: I wasn't fabulous. But I did do it last year, and it's easier for them and whatever...Though I was going to do Two Rooms and flute choir and keep my grades up and stuff if I didn't do ACC, I feel like I really need it to get through that part of my year. School drags me down so much. I really, really need to get out of it sometimes. Maybe not as much as I will, but that's what I get.
When I got home from my audition, I wandered around my yard, sort of saying goodbye to it because it was warm today. I put my feet in my pool and it was SO cold, but I really liked it. I sort of held up my dress and just stood there in the cold. I really want that, for some reason! My goodness. Oh, and I had some lemon balm too. I'm gonna miss that when we move :(
Then I practised my flute for over an hour. Sometimes I get in mad flutist mode and practise forever and I get blisters and my fingers hurt like hell because I practise that hard...it's true. It's like a sport. Haha. But I got a lot done.
Then Trevor and I went to his aunt's 50th birthday party. I really like one of Trevor's cousins, and like...a lot of people were really nice. And his grandfather...saves my life. Love that man. We sort of hung out, and it was really fun. At one point, we sort of just stood outside and talked and looked at stars, and I wish I was still there right now.
Despite my workload, I'm happy. I'm wearing my fleece right now and relaxing. I get like, 24 hours per week, if that, to relax, and it's from Friday to Saturday night. It's so refreshing.
