Fending off the jam monster

My new Macbook should be coming in the mail soon, I'm really excited. But for now, I'm using the netbook & I'm spreading straberry jam onto my toast. You know what I hate? Butter on toast. It is so disgusting - gak! Anyways, I thought an update is really in need and today was the day. I guess I'll do this chronologically?

Two weeks ago, my sister, my aunt & I went down to the Kennedy Center and saw probably the best musical ever: Spring Awakening! I really would like to rave on and on about it, but I feel I might bore you, so I'll just say one thing: It was fabulous & the tour cast (which I saw) is now in Chicago. Last week, I went for a 40-mile bike ride from a small outskirt town out of DC, to Georgetown and then down along the C & O Canal. And back! I was heavily burned but it was a good ride despite that. Then yesterday, I celebrated my grandparent's 55th wedding anniversary with a few of my family memebers and we went down to Assateague Island and had a lot of fun! We even saw a few ponies!

Queen Envy of the Kingdom of Jealousy from the Bowels of the FedEx Truck

Yep yep. Read the title.
So, Tuesday - I think that was it - June 16th: my sister, two of my cousins and two friends all went to see Jack's Mannequin and the Fray playing at Merriweather Post Pavilion in dear old Mary's land. Yes. I was enormously jealous of these five girls. However last night I did view an amazing spectacle of the human talents. I saw the Bolshoi Ballet Company's (out of Russia) production of the ballet Le Corsaire. Yes - I may have not seen one of my favorite bands (JM) play live (probably with crappy-last-minute tickets) but I did see a breath taking production of a show that was touching and funny at the same time. It was amazing!! Anyways yeah that's been my life for the last couple days. Also I slept at my sister's house in DC last night and was woken up twice last night randomly by her housemates. How interesting. Last Wednesday I recieved Sims 3 from the bowels of the FedEx truck. It's been pretty fun but I need to get a better computer to play it on unfortunately.

We're Attracting the Vampires

I think the Maryland towns by D.C. and the District itself are gonna be a breeding ground for the vampires. Yes. TrueBlood and the Twilight Series have finally gotten to my brain. But really, all this rain! All the time! Sexy Vampires better come on over!
Anyways, another update post. Other than the 'constant cover of rain' (there I go quoting Twilight) - I do like the rain - my eldest sister and I recently saw RENT in D.C. with the original broadway/movie actors of Roger and Mark: Adam Pascal and Anthony Rapp!!! Needless to say, it was AMAZING. Go read the review in today's (May 29th) Style section of the Washington Post.
I think the rain is really a good time to listen to music. You have the ambient noise the rain makes and then your favorite Jack's Mannequin or Journey song playing in the background. What could go wrong?
Two days left of school!! Three exams left!! Two on Monday, one on Tuesday and then FINALLY! Summer time!
Yes I am excited.

.no day but today.

Weezy <3

we are not the same
i am an alien...

music of course :D
Just listening to music. Haven't posted in a while actually. Kinda sad I guess. Freshman year is winding down, next week is my last week and then I have exams.
So basically this is just an update post - I promise I will write more when I have the time!!

Much Needed Post

I decided to write a poem-

dreams are un-born wishes. 
wishes are un-born actions. 
actions are un-born people. 
people are born.

your mind may speak differently.
but your heart will tell you what is true.

defy logic with emotions.
bind emotions with logic.

go with the flow.
be the rock within the river.
that breaks the waters flow.

step above what is expected.
of you to shock the world.

sing what you feel.
write what you feel.
draw what you feel.
art is based on.
what you feel.

love to live.
live to love. 
don't take shit.
from anyone.

above all.
believe in yourself.
and in your most trusted.
and most loved.

Footloose

It's been a while.
Mom has arrived home from visiting Bridgey in Italy from February 26 through March 2. She had a lot of fun, but upon her arrival she has had a fever and today she stayed in bed.
If you are reading this Bridget- thank you so much for the gorgeous Italian skinny jeans... they fit!!

Anywho, the third quarter is going to end of March 13th, that's a Friday... AHH!
Miley-cat just broke a plate so there was some delay in my posting. Ooh! Three weeks ago I went to see some of my friends in their high school's production of Footloose!
It was awesome!

Composing, Apologies, Sickness, Dissapointment, Valentines

So, I haven't actually posted anything in a long while, not since January anyways. I decided that much is needed to be said so here goes:

Reviving Ophelia, Friday the 13th at 7:30 - Opening Night, we're all excited! Too bad I was sick in bed with a fever all day. I couldn't even star in the show that I had been working on since sometime in December. I was extremely angry about not being able to perform. There were only two nights that we would perform, Friday and Valentines' Day. Unfortunately I couldn't do the second performance either. But I was well enough to be some fun extra parts, like a First Grader and a Party Guest!

I really miss my sister Bridgey because she is awesome and she is Italy. My mom is going to visit her in Italy in March sometime and what really irks me is that I just discovered that I have off school the days that she is going. Grrr.

Anywhoo. Happy Be-Lated Valentines Day! I did nothing this Valentines Day but sit on the couch and try to get better. Later that night I managed to do the little extra roles in the play, but apart from that - I was sniffling and coughing and trying to recover. For this years' Valentines Day gifts, I am currently composing a piano piece for my friend Lexxy. It is going to be a little late since I started it on Thursday... But so far it's coming along nicely!

Peace, Love and Thanks for Reading!!
