Blogging for the Sake of Blog (Btw, where did 'Blog' come from?)
-I smell McDonald's Chicken Nuggets at 6am in my own home, o.O-
Whoo, I've been up since four when my sister called me to let me know she's all packed and ready to go. About threee seconds later I realized that she meant she's ready to get on the plane and head home in a few hours and that she was going to call dad on his cell to let him know. Yay for confusion! :D
Interesting, or in the words of Willy Loman, "Isn't that remarkable?" In the midst of my memory of the just stated phone call, I got a flash back feeling of being in Disney World. I think it was due to my subconscious realization that Elise is in Florida, and ergo I would remeber my last visit to Florida (Disney World). I'm now further excited at the thought of going to DW for the Spring Band Trip (which I'm really hoping is going to be as kick butt as possible. Please no Chicago repeats.) and maybe for Spring Break (I'm going down to Telahassee as it is that week, why not finish it with DW?)
Charlene's home! I picked her up from the kennel yesterday without getting lost on the way there. So if anyone wants to go bowling at bowl america, then I can confidently give you a ride there. ^^ I shall continue to enjoy this segment of my life where driving to a place less than a 3 miles from your home w/o getting lost is still a big acheivment.
I know we had Monday off, but this week was still incredibly long. I don't remember Tuesday that well, but I know that I had band rehersal and the reminder that our tape test was due Friday. So! I practiced that night but also studied for my History test I thought we would have along with my precalc test ( Both of which never happened on Tuesday/Wednesday). The precalc test was moved to Thursday and so I studied, but only after practicing. I just knew that as soon as Thursday was completly over, I'd be fine. I got my tape test done in 13 minutes with about 3 hours total practice. I should have done better in parts, but I was tired and after about five go arounds, enough was enough. Friday took forever, but Spanish was surprisingly quick and I just slept through drama after our read through. Speaking of the read through, I am honestly just shocked at how POORLY 15, 16, and 17 year olds can read! I guess I shouldn't be shocked in this age of my peers and the TV/Computer dominated world, but you still have to read to do blogging and chatting right? I guess since it's not outloud.. but you don't read outloud when you read books. Seriously, it's like some of these kids have never read English before. Or maybe it's just my drama class. REASON #14 why I cannot wait to take theatre in college with people who had to pay gobs of money and audition and be serious about this class, and not just take it because you don't want to paint. And I know I'm probably expecting too much from a public school drama class, but I'm still not satisfied with what we're learning (or there lack of.) Well, Faith tells me what her class does with Monk and it seems a mill times better than what we do. Maybe we just need Monk.
Speaking of more drama, I stayed after history for about ten minutes to help Demek with his lines for the play he's in. It's quite interesting to think of Demek as an actor, but after having over half a year of classes with him, you see that deep down he has the acting bug. So I read the part of Agnes (which miss K plays [this play is done with her theatre group I believe, or she's just in the same play with him]) and he did his part. He did warn me that he only has a minute of it memorized with lots of add libbing. He was right as lots was add libed, but it was still good. Thought I messed up royaly when I camr to this one line of Agnes's and couldn't stop laughing.
Agnes: Oh, it's you. I was expecting a stoop shouldered, blad, paunchy, peek cheeked man. But you're handsome!
I never got to the handsome part as I was overcome with fits of laughter. If any of you have actually seen Demek, you'd understand. Demek told me and John to stop laughing at the lines, but he understood where we were coming from. So! Like two times a week I'm going to help him go over his lines (He only has 5 more rehersals and they're only after spring break as his part is only three pages out of like 60). Over all it was pretty cool and he more so acts like he teaches in class. Very serious and straight to the point. His play is May 21 and Faith and I are going to see it, but if anyone else is interested, then tell me so we can all see it together. I think it would be really fun. How often do you see your teachers do anything outside of school? (And yes, they *do* have lives outside of school..) Hm, and one more thought that just appeared. Demek assignes us all this homework that individualy takes us forever to do, and would logically take him thrice the times of infinity for him to grade and yet he has time to be in a play? I guess he's got this 'Time Managagement' thing my parents keep telling me about, pretty much down.
Tonight is the last night of H2$ and so I'm going to ask my parents to see if I can go (ad if they can drive me to Oakton as I've no clue how to get there by myself.)
Good luck Jo! Only one more night and you're done! :D
So now that I've cleaned, eaten, updated, watched my no Spin Zone AM repeat, I'm going back to sleep.
Until next time little farrets,

P.S. I do love that Texas accent. If I can't find a sexy British/Irish/Scottish/Welsh accented man and bring him back to America or live in England/safe parts of Europe with him as an American, then I'm going to marry a sexy cowboy/businessman with a gen-you-ine Texas accent. They're so cute ^_^
And for a spurt of super-patriotism:
w00t for America! I do love this country.
P.S.S.- G'night!
