so excuse me while i marry the new modest mouse lineup, ok? they were fantastic enough and now they've stolen johnny marr (the guitarist of the smiths) AND gotten their old drummer aka jeremiah green! back. if you can't tell, i'm pretty excited and i can't stop listening to this song. haha. "here we go!"

mmkay, so friday night was a showwwww at the union room. a voice like rhetoric and gracer aka really good stuff, but i missed troy. oh well. erik is my temporarily replacement and he is so cute and funny and just major aww. so yeah, good times.

saturday i kind of laid around all day? haha i really don't remember anything until going to the movies at like 5:30 to see the number 23. i actually really liked it. it reminded me of chuck palahniuk. so yay. then i went to raffi's party... chris, leah, dan, jillian and tsa were there. i feel like i'm missing someone? yeah we watched demetri martin and danced and played who would you rather do. it was fun. haha. and i could even tolerate jillian, gasp. dan is so gay. and i do mean homosexual.

yesterday i had dance at 5 and before that i spent the entire day on the goucher website. i'm in love. seriously, everything is perfect and i'm going. i might miss pittsburgh, but you know what? pittsburgh will always be there. i need to take this time to explore.

um. i'm sick of school. i hate radnich. everything else is boring. i'm doing well but just... it could stop any time and i wouldn't really care. haha. yeah that's about all.

go ahead and pick up the knife, i'd like to see what you're made of
♪: speakerfire - the devil's harvest

i'm still sick. blah. well, i'm a lot better, but i'm still blowing my nose and coughing a little and today i discovered a cold sore. disgusting. as if i didn't mind having a giant red thing on my face enough, those things are just nasty. i've never had a real one before, either, usually just sores from blowing my nose.

so anyway, sunday was rachel's birthday party. it was alright. i wasn't feeling very good that day, mentally or physically, or i probably would have had more fun. i didn't NOT have fun, but you know. we watched chicago and made crown things and just hung out.

monday was such an awful day, i remember, but i got through it just the same. i *really* didn't want to go to school, and i wasn't really prepared. but fortunately the physics quiz was extraordinarily easy (i got 100%), we didn't have an english reading quiz, and i got an A on the history reading quiz. oh, and the french presentation went well; we got 50/50. so now all that's over. that day was my mom's birthday so we went out to dinner at cracker barrel, hahahaha i love it. but i didn't get her a birthday present and i felt really bad.

yesterday consisted of way, way too much school. haha. had a math test. ew. hardly anyone finished so we got some more time today... ehh idk, i probably got an a or a high b, but there a couple of things i know i screwed up. oh well. i had to stay after school a little bit for NHS induction ceremony practice. it's going to be long and we're going to have to stand. gross. that night was the academic challenge students vs teachers competition. because of trucco we beat the seniors, but the teachers still kicked our asses. but *collectively* we beat the teachers by one point. i didn't do very well but oh well.

today all that i really care about was getting our seats moved in both french and math. dan and i still sit together in french, but we sat together there anyway, and i really had fun with him in math and i don't sit by him anymore in there. sigh. oh well, it'll be fine, except for the fact that i sit in the back of the classroom. my seat before was absolutely perfect. :/ i went to improv after school today and there were like 3 people there so we played with the giant balls. haha, it was fun.

i'm excited for this weekend cause we get to go see a voice like rhetoric and gracer on friday night, then the movies (the number 23) on saturday and raffi's birthday party. hopefully not too much homework.

xoxo

♪: lifetime - northbound breakdown

turns out we didn't have school on valentines day. i did absolutely nothing. i didn't really have any homework that we weren't given time in class to do, so i didn't bring anything home. i did run two miles, though. that's the most i've ever done at once and i felt really amazing, except i was dead tired for the rest of the day.

haha thursday was like the worst day ever. we had PSSAs... which are just awful... so i was kinda sorta dead all day. meh. umm. just felt crappy, fought with my mom, felt like crap at dance, etc. after dance i went to rachel's to put her hair in curlers for her birthday the next day. they ended up coming out really cute and i was happy.

yesterday i got to go to college enrichment. leah was sick so i had to be in film alone but there was hardly anyone there anyway so it was ok. we watched the illusionist and i was really glad to see it again because i love it. brian got really angry in art class and screamed at us and i was more terrified than i've probably ever been of a human being, no lie. it was just awkward and bad.

ummm last night i went to erie with rachel and emily and their mom. we went to olive garden and two book stores. laughed a lot at dinner and i finally bought fight club and talked about it with the cute-ish guy behind the counter in the music/dvd section. felt hot until i realized it was friday night and i was at a book store. and the night would've been much funner if i hadn't been getting sicker and sicker. i didn't fall asleep until probably 2 am because my throat was absolutely killing me and i couldn't stop coughing. it was awful and i'm still really really tired.

i have so much homework this weekend, it's disgusting, and i don't want to do any of it, i just want to go back to sleep.

adam lazzara is getting married. at first i was all LMAO but now i'm kind of realizing what a big deal it is... oh well, bets that they don't even make it to the wedding day.

holy halfway through february. haha. from now on i'm going to stop apologizing for not updating and just do it when i feel like it (which will hopefully be more often, lolz.)

SHIT WOW it's been awhile. umm... the signal home show that day was pretty great. seeing troy with an acoustic guitar = love. we talked to him for ages, too. he's so cute. miss him already. college enrichment that day was good too. we watched 'thank you for smoking'. it didn't really do much for me, but hey.

i'm going to go through my lj and get some more stuff... umm... we got our report cards. i got straight As and i was very happy cause i worked my ass off for that. haha. and we registered for classes... i'm taking 4 APs next year. i think i'm kind of crazy, but oh well.

ummm... we've had lots of 2-hour delays and missed days of school becuase of cold and bad weather. we're all hoping for a snow day tomorrow, too. i'm kind of sick (sore throat, cough) and miraculously warm. haha.

oh, we finished rehearsal for jackie's piece and performed it. i did it the best i had ever, especially 'stronger', which was great considering there were certain audience members that i wanted to scream at. hahaha. he wouldn't even look at me afterwords. yay. after that we went to jackie's house and ate fondue. yay? no it was fun. haha.

i spent alllll weekend reading for history. insanity. then there was justin's party on sunday. funnest thing was watching 'the illusionist'. amazing. ed norton. :]

PSSAs today. blahhhhh i hate them ew. schedules are all funny though and i really hope we don't have school tomorrow. yeahhh.

pshh. i think i don't update this thing cause i don't get comments. haha, i'm a whore.

ok so saturday... in the afternoon i went to the district orchestra concert. it was amazing. they're so good. they played pirates of the caribbean and it made me cry, hahaha. after that i went to jo anne's and got yarn. i started knitting this gorgeous scarf and i REALLY want to finish it by friday but i doubt that's going to happen. even though i'm over halfway there i'm going to have to knit like crazay. anyway, that night leah's family came over for dinner. we had veggie chili and stuff, and went in the hot tub and then leah and i watched some AFI. hahaha.

that night my mom somehow managed to guilt-trip me about not taking her to france... long story, as is where it led... but i ended up having a kind of anxiety attack, which i don't like to talk about cause i don't want to be all OMGZ LOOK AT ME I HAVE ANXIETY PROBLEMZ~! but a lot of things were definitely building up and it felt good to get them out.

sunday i went to dance with jackie... we learned another full dance and i'm very bruised and sore, still. and i have to go again tonight. le sigh.

have we really only been at school 3 days? this week has been dragging on forever. let's see... i aced my history quiz and my physics test, so that's good. computer is le suck, as is french because we're doing group projects and we didn't get to pick the groups, meh. but we've been planning the french trip lots and i'm SO SO SO EXCITED TO GO OMG. i want it to be june NOW. i'm also really thinking about signing up for classes next year and everything's all screwed up because they're making us take gym every day for a whole semester. i'm pretty pissed.

ummm... that's all i can think about, i thought there was more but hey. i just want it to be friday... college enrichment and then SH show. but they'll be gone for like 2 months. i'm going to cry.
