Hope for the Hopeless - A Fine Frenzy |
] |
So I got all of my grades for my first semester! I'm pretty pleased with them too. I got an A in History, an A- in Political Science and English, and a B+ in Literature. Actually, I'm really happy with that B+ in Lit. I was expecting a C because I really sucked on a a lot of the 5 point quizzes we had in there. But yay! Oh, I'm so happy.
So I'm about to take my driver's test. Finally. I don't know how people can do this. I'm mildly freaking out, but it'll be nice to finally have that independence. I don't regret waiting this long though. I finally feel like I'm responsible enough for it.
Last night was great. I got to hang out with some of my favorite people in the world. I love them all so much.
All for now.

So I'm basically the best fucking sister ever. I got my wonderful siblings some pretty awesome gifts.
Not much else really to say.
I'm having a holiday party again this year which I'm really excited about. It's going to be on the 29th and it's a fondue party. Just chocolate fondue though.
Oh man, yesterday I got a call from the Coffee Mill and my name was pulled in the 5 year anniversary drawing and I won one of the big bags of chai mix. So I got the vanilla kind and I had a cup of it last night and it was soooo good. I'm a fan of chai now.
Okay, now that's all to say.

Christmas Christmas Christmas time!
Today my sisters and I went to get the presents for our parents. This was definitely Boo's idea. We got our picture taken of the three of us which we haven't done in 7 years. It's a black and white photo like the last one and I think my mom and dad are going to be so surprised. So, I'm really excited about that.
Finishing up classes on Monday and Tuesday. I did fine this semester and the final exams aren't going to be a big deal really, so yay! I FINALLY signed up for next semester's classes and I'm really excited about a couple.
He got the scarf I made him in the mail today. He says he really likes it so I'm a happy bear.
Tis all for now, my dears. I really wish I had more to say, but, alas, I am not that interesting.

So he didn't end up coming to Frankenmuth because of the storm that's a-coming. But you know, I'm not disappointed. I mean, I want to see him, but at the end of the day I'm okay because I know there will be other chances. It's funny because I had this suspicion that it wasn't going to happen. It really was too good to be true anyways
So now I'm just chilling in the hotel room. Oh, it was great! On our way here yesterday, at one point we were all in the car singing along to "Careless Whisper" by George Michael. We were singing as loud as we could! Of course, the only reason I know all the words is because of the Ben Folds and Rufus cover. Haha, but it was a great moment.
Oh, and today I got some rain boots! The cutest ones on Earth! Oh my goodness, they're black and white hounds tooth. I'm in love with them. Plus, I needed footwear for the winter because there is no chance in hell my little shoes will get me through.
Uhhh, that's really all for now.

I'm making him a scarf for Christmas and when I was talking to him he said he was just thinking today about what to get me for Christmas.
Holy shit!!! He JUST said he was going to Frankenmuth this weekend... I'm going this weekend!

Wow. Wow. Um... I'm a giddy goose. Haha.

So today I went looking for jeans, because lord knows I'm always in need of then. It seems like whenever I get a new pair then something happens to my other pair. Well, anyways I was trying on a size 8 thinking that would be pretty safe, I might have a little room... nope. The 8's were too SMALL! Now I have a pretty secure body image, but I honestly never thought that I'd need a size 10... not now. I don't think a 10 is very big, but on me? I've always been pretty sure I'm on the thin side. It just surprised me. I know it sounds stupid, but me wearing a size 10? It just sounds ridiculous. Shopping for pants always frustrates me as is.

You Picked Me - A Fine Frenzy |

I love this time of the year. I absolutely love it. Thanksgiving went so well. Our family came over to our house this year. This is the first year we've had Thanksgiving. Normally we go to Detroit , to my aunt and uncle's for Thanksgiving. But it went so well. The food was amazing. My dad did a phenomenal job. I ate way too much and yet I still managed to have one of my Grandma's hot fudge cream puffs for dessert. Mmmmm. It was a great time.
We set up the house today with Christmas decorations. We put up the snow village and other stuff and I set up all my nutcrackers like every year. We don't have a tree yet, but this is nice for now. I love being at the computer at night with the snow village lights on behind me. It looks absolutely lovely.
Oh, and I think I'm going to see Bat Boy the Musical again tomorrow! This time with Sam and this time I have to pay, but it's SO worth it!
( Ramblings of a silly girl )( Ramblings of a silly girl... )
Today I put together my Christmas list. I could only think of 4 things that I actually wanted. 1 CD, 2 DVDs, and a book. I'm pretty cool... or maybe I'm just content.
Oh, and tomorrow I'm going to apply for a job at Louie's! Ah hahahaha. That would be hilarious if I got a job there... at a donut shop.
I hope you all are doing lovely.

I am so smitten. My goodness. Which is not necessarily a good thing. It's just that this is not what I'm like and this is not what I do. I can't really deal with something like this right now. I mean, in a sense it's rather blissful, but there are too many complications. It could never work really. That doesn't stop me from these feelings though. He's so great though. But every logical part of me is telling me it just can't happen. I'm not entirely sure how he feels about me. There have been more than a few signs in my favor, but maybe he's just a really friendly and open guy like that. I don't know. Even if he did have similar feelings for me, there are too many obstacles. It really could never work. I love talking to him though. We talk about everything and we have these great discussions. Our tastes are very close and it's just weird how it's worked out so far. I can't say I've known him terribly long, only 4 months. Today he actually remembered we'd known each other for exactly 4 months this day. But it could never work. Too bad, he's kind of the closest thing I've ever found to my dream guy.

Okay, so update time.
A Christmas Carol is over now. It was a wonderful show to be a part of and the audiences all seemed to enjoy it. I'm going to miss the cast though, they were all great. But it's nice in a way that it's over so I can have my life back. Not like I had much of a life in the first place.
School is still fine, but I feel like I'm losing interest in a couple classes and I really need to sign up for next semester. I know what I want to take though.
So they say that when one part of your life suddenly gets better than another part goes to shits. Well, I was wondering if it worked the other way around. Home life has been kind of rocky. Just a lot of tension and stress. Saturday was a mildly terrifying day at home, thank god I had the play to go to. But this leads me to wonder if another part of my life will suddenly get better. During the play I was wondering and I seemed to get a hint to an answer when I was home. Perhaps. Just maybe. I get the feeling it just might, but who knows. I won't get too excited because I am, afterall, a very silly girl who lives in a dream world.
That's really all. Really.
Oh, I can't wait for Thanksgiving! We're having the family over at our house this year. WooO!

Happy Halloween! I love Halloween, except it's not like I'm dressing up or doing anything exciting.
In the spirit of Halloween I dreamt last night about there being a zombie apocalypse and Courtney and I were the only survivors in this weird town. It was definitely weird, but least I know going to a mall in that case is NOT a good idea.

Across the Universe - Rufus Wainwright |

So today was a really good day. It's been awhile since I've had a day where I thought "Hey, this has been a really great day."
First of all, I was able to sleep all the way through the night without waking up which hasn't happened in quite a while, so I was rather refreshed this morning. Then my literature class was canceled. I was absolutely thrilled. Krissy and I were walking over to class and neither of us felt like going today. We were even talking about maybe skipping out but then we found out there was a sign on the door that said class was canceled! Woooooo! I was thrilled.
So I came home and got some stuff done and took a nap! Then I had to be at the Civic Center early to do a costume fitting and one of my costumes fits me wonderfully. Does anyone realize how rare it is that I get a costume that fits perfectly? Yeah, pretty damn rare. Normally they're all frumpy on me because I'm tall and longer dresses seem to all have much larger waists than me. But no! The silhouette is lovely and it was like it was made for me (though it was NOT actually made for me).
And then I was in the costume shop when this little girl from the cast randomly came up to me and said "You're really pretty." Not like I need a six year old to tell me I'm pretty, but it was really nice and a picker upper as most little kids just like to comment on the size of my nose.
Then obviously we had rehearsal and it went really well. Then our director, who is also currently directing "Bat Boy: The Musical," said we could all go see it for free! Um... basically awesome x 4848483
So yes, good good day.
How was yours?

So I've been thinking about this for a while. After I'm done with A Christmas Carol I'm thinking about dying my hair. I just want a temporary color as I don't feel like getting stuck with a color, if it turns out horrid, for forever and a half. I want to go red, nothing radical I know. But I've never really dyed the whole of my hair before and it's been 6-7 years since I've even done highlights. It's just that there have been pictures taken of me where my hair looks really red and I think it looks awesome. I already have a lot of red naturally in my hair, I just want to bring that out more. This is just to test the waters. Keep it temporary and whatnot. So... what do you think of that? Also, I want to change my style up a bit. Not short. Never short, just a bit of a change, I'm just not sure what specifically.

Okay so updates on my life:
School is still going great and whatnot. So happy happy joy joy.
Rehearsals for A Christmas Carol have been going wonderfully. I love the cast. They are so friendly and rehearsals have been a lot of fun. I seriously think it is going to be such an awesome show!
I'm almost done putting together my costume for Haunted Trail. I'm so excited about it! It's seriously going to be amazing. You see, I've got this kilt, it's a hostess kilt which means it's long female kilt, and the tartan is the tartan of my Scottish pirate ancestors!!! Hell yeah! I'm so excited about it. It's not really what the sketch looks like, but seriously it's going to be pretty sweet.
So for a while I wasn't dreaming (or rather remembering my dreams) which is weird for me because I'm used to remembering dreams almost every night. But luckily I have been again. I kind of like remembering my dreams. It always makes for interesting conversation starters.
Um, that's it really.

So I made it into A Christmas Carol! I'm so excited about the show. It's going to be amazing. I got the part of Martha Cratchit, Bob Cratchit's eldest daughter. It's not a big role, but I'm pleased. I'm also a caroler (I have no clue why as I am a horrid singer) and a party guest (but I do know how to party!). I can't wait to get started with the show. It's a great cast for sure and the director seems to be pretty good too.

So... I finally found out today what role I got for Haunted Trail! I got the part of *drumroll*... ANNE REED! Yay! That was exactly the part I was going for. I am so very excited about it now. So very excited.
School has been going well. I really love my political science class. I've learned so much in there and yet haven't really had any homework.
I auditioned for A Christmas Carol last night and tonight at the Civic. I am not trying to get too excited since it is no guarantee that I'll get in, but I'm still hoping. I got to read quite a few times. It'll be a great production no matter what. It would be awesome just to be a part of it.
So, that's really it.

So my first week as a college student (even if it is just KCC) went pretty well. I'm really going to enjoy my history and government classes. The teachers are pretty cool. I'm not a fan of my Lit teacher though. He's a bit of a creep and isn't really very smart. And my English class is just going to be full of busywork. No fun.
So am SOOOOOOO glad I'm no longer at MHS, turns out they've gotten really hardcore this year. Reminds me of the 5th HP book with Umbridge being Headmistress. Yeah, scary stuff. But sounds like the students are going to put up a resistance and I couldn't support them more. They do not deserve to be treated as if they are lesser human beings by any means.
I'm really excited about Haunted Trail auditions tomorrow! Yesterday I picked up a script so I could be familiar with it before auditions and to see which characters I like. I really like Anne Reed, she's a bar wench! Kind of. But how fun would that be? Plus, I've been working on an accent that I think would fit well, or at least I hope. Haha. But yes, very very excited about tomorrow.
This is all.
Piece de la resistance!
