partees and people and OMG IM GOING TO HAWAII

*walks sheepishly to the computer, turns it on, and sighs*

Sorry guys, I just got so DANG-ED busy all of a sudden! I did stuff every day. Like, I mean, WENT places and did stuff!

Sheesh.

I don't have pix right now because I'm a terrible, lazy human, and like to not live through the lens of a camera when hanging out with people. SIDE NOTE: "people" sounds like "perplle" when I say it because I got stupid rubber bands (which is bubber rands with the first letters switched. you're welcome) in my face for my braces.

So I had prom, which was super fun! My boy Snook took me and we danced and goofed off. It was fun. The after party was carnival-y and had inflatables, so yeah. It (prom and all) wasn't what I expected at all for some reason. I don't even know what I had envisioned, but not that. Maybe me and my friends just can't live up to the elegance and "this is the night of your life" thang.

The week after that I had school, rehearsals, and then went to my friend Katie's play with some people. We went to Sonic afterward and chilled. Literally, we chilled. It was freezing that late at night! She was super good performing as a spoon. Don't judge, they were doing Beauty and the Beast!

The weekend after that I went to a Father-Daughter Banquet with my dad and little sister. That was a lot of fun, as was the bowling after party, though I suck at bowling. I bowled a 64, so that's all that needs to be said. I will say, in a feeble attempt to retain my dignity, this was the worst I have ever done, normally bowling in the 80s or 90s. Oh hey I have pix for me bowling!

See my cute college swag and harem pants? I am a hobo, hipster clown.

psyching up

thur she goes!

look at that form! Yeah-huh!

My excited "I made some pins fall over!!" dance.

happay happay fist pumps!!1!

 So that was bowling. Then the next day Snook and Chris the Goat came over to watch The Three Musketeers. Watch it if you get the chance, it's wonderfully stupid and unrealistic. I'll have you know that I invited one other dude and three girls, but none of them could come so DON'T JUDGE ME.

Then came production week for Seussical. We performed three times today and we're done now and you can't understand me unless you've had post-show depression. It sucks, but in a good way. Also, I'M GOING TO HAWAII TOMORROW AND STAYING FOR TEN DAYS AND ITS GONNA BE ALL BEACHY AND STAUFFFF! So thats good! Moar pix to come. Expect the same type of thing as from my Cali trip: a couple updates, a Gnome post, then an absolute photo dump. Kay cool? Cool.

Oh but I just love my partners in crime in my cast. They are the bees knees. I love theater people because they are crazy, but also weirdly respectful (most of the time) because they know what's it's like to be told to be quiet and not sing so much. We're all so cute together too. In our makeup. Hugging each other and working together to make everything perfect and fun and special. *sigh* already nostalgia.

PEACE OUT BBYS! see ya in Solla Sollew....or the WEST COAST! YEEAAUUHHHH!

hugs, light bulbs, and books

I feel like the blogosphere is dead. I mean, I know I'm not helping any by only posting on whims and that there are a few of y'all still blogging away. Maybe I need to follow more people. We're all just getting older and getting busier with various and sundry things.

This is how I am about hugs. I need to make these coupons.

 I think I might make it to Summer 2013. Just maybe. My health has been better, if you don't count getting sick AGAIN! Geeze. Big family problems include everyone getting sick and sharing it. I'm caught up on homework, but it's not over yet. Maybe I'll head to the library to finish up some stuff. I love studying at the library. I can focus there, and don't feel so closed in and stuck.

So here's something funny. I took all the books off of my shelves to dust them and reorganize because I enjoy that sort of stuff. So all the books are on my floor in piles, and I still haven't gotten around to putting them away. I went to put them away last night, but saw that the shelves had gotten dusty again! Now I have to procrastinate a little bit more.... Haha, nah, maybe I'll put them away today! Hey, I'll take a picture to show you guys when I'm finished.

Remember the super duper surprise I was gonna post about?? So, sorry about that, but it was a vlog with my best friend, but the video won't upload so y'all might not be able to see it. Shame on me.

I read Percy Jackson: The Lightning Thief on a whim a while back. I read it and enjoyed it a lot! It was well done and fun! Naturally, it was a little under my reading level, but I don't mind that. I watched the film a couple evenings ago and absolutely loved it! I was a little skeptical at first because of all the material to cover and special effects that would be necessary, but I was pleasantly surprised. Usually I'm judging effects and actors and humor and pacing the whole way through a film when I know the ending, but I wasn't! I enjoyed the whole thing. The actors were all top-notch...Logan Lerman is precious too. The makers made the film enjoyable for older audiences without adding unnecessary crude humor or anything. I highly recommend it and can't wait for Sea of Monsters! I'll have to read the rest of the series!

I found this online and loved it. It shows how forward thinking is often attacked. Do you ever feel like the only light bulb in a world of candles?

I love Sherlock because it is so intelligent and marvelously paced with good action...who am I kidding? Lies! All lies! I LOVE Benedict Cumberbatch! I can't wait for the next Star Trek! All these girls are about to become die-hard Trekkies. lol

Well, that's a lovely note to end on. Off I go to do important things!
