Welcome to the life of a hardcore rock and roll vixen.
Damn you MSN! Why won't you wooooooork?!!!!!?!!!!!!?!!!!
You blew it up! Damn you all to heeeeell!
God Charlton Heston, you can be so emo. Why don't you just come out of the closet already and play with your little monkey friend? That Cornelius is one fine little monkey. *wink, wink*
So, I survived my term at SWOCC (SOCC). I don't know what my grades are yet. Don't really care all that much. I finished my battle with financial aid. I haven't gotten my money yet. I do care about that.
My theatre finals went well. I got good reviews. Which is good because I was in everything at the showcase. We had an end of term showcase for the acting III (SOCC is on quarters, so that is still first year acting) and acting VI and Directing. I was in each class. So, that was five audition monologues, two ten-minute plays, and one directed ten-minute play. There were three people in the directing class, so of the three plays that went, I was in two and the last one I wasn't in because I had directed it. Three people in the acting VI class, so I had a brief reprieve while the other two were delivering their monologues. And that was the show. Three sets of audition monologues (which we were required to have five monologues) followed by three ten-minute plays. We should have called the show "Alex Jones...and Friends!" ;)
My other finals went well too. Or, atleast I hope they went well. I didn't bother to stop by the school last week to see the grades posted. I had a Geology test (a bunch of multiple choice, some matching, three short essays, and a comprehensive essay where we had to write down the geologic time line with interesting tid bits about each period) and a biology test (multiple choice and some short essays which were basically draw me a picture of how X works). I felt like I walked away with a B on both. Hopefully that is true (or better).
My girlfried flew in for that week. Yeah, as if finals wasn't stressful enough. It was good though, I was happy to see her. We got a lot of free meals out of this as well. Everyone was wanting to take us out for dinner (actually, my mom and dad were wanting to take us out to dinner) and because my brother was graduating high school along with our foriegn exchange student, lots of free meals. It was yummy. Lots of food, lots of stress, lots of sex. But now she is gone. A continent separates us. I'm back to considering myself single again. Well, pseudo-single anyway. ;)
So, oddest thing, in the world of pro-wrestling, the WWE has released a new brand (which really means another weekly show). ECW. Which is odd. I checked it out and it was kinda cool. I see a lot of potential there. Right now they are doing a lot of cross promotional stuff I assume to get it off of its feet so it doesn't die in its infancy. Although from what I understand there is a rabid fan base because ECW used to be a competitor of WWE's before it was bought out. I watched the show last night and it felt a little clunky, but ECW snagged some top tier superstars from the other shows (RVD, Kurt Angle, Big Show) so I'm all for it. It is also on the Sci-Fi channel which made me go, "whaaaa?"
I slept for 12 hours today. That was so wonderful. Now I feel as though my day has dissapeared. Which is has, because I slept through it. I was going to wake up early and do some dry land training, then go running around now-ish, and then swim before work. Instead, I'm finishing my first cup of coffee. Wait, no, my second cup of coffee. Maybe I should have stayed asleep until work (which starts at 5).
I am working at the pool again this year. Six days a week! It's crazy, I'm getting some mad hours (well for lifegaurding at Mingus anyway), 24 hours this week. And I think this is going to be a regular schedule. Suits me fine, it isn't so bad. Mondays and Thursdays are tough though as I work from 10-4, lifeguarding. I shouldn't complain, but damn if it doesn't get so fucking boring sometimes, most of the time.
Now that I have my third cup of coffee, what do I do to stave off the boredom? Play, if he/she/it were a garnish, what garnish would they be. My brother Zaq would be catnip (though I can't imagine any human being using that as a garnish, but that fits Zaq so well). My lady-friend from Jersy (Leah) would be mint. My friend Jim would be one of those cocktail swords. Chandler, a fellow lifeguard, would be an orange wedge. And so on. It's tough, sometimes, a lot of the time.
I have found that I love to be carded. It's fun. Especially when comment that I look too young to be 21. Which makes my day. Because I constently run into people that assume I a lot older. Some people mistake me for a grad student or something like that. Well, except when I work at the pool. Then people assume I'm a high school senior. Which, for me, was another lifetime ago.
So now, I'll leave you with a fortune I recieved from Tai's Dynasty a few days ago. "You will meet an alien soon."
