ha. woww.

hey everyone

so its officially been about...4y57890237 years since ive updated this. I just read my last post and realized how much has happened since then. A TON. where to start....

I guess summertime would be a good one. I finished out the year, FINALLY. it was summer. The biggest event? Me and My Girl. Our shows were total kick ass (of course), and i had basically the best summer ever. It was a ton of fun. ill have to post pics sometime soon. I miss it...and all the people. But thats how it goes.

The 06-07 school year has started. I'm a junior now. My school's fall production (which I made :P) is The Good Doctor. It should be good! Then we're doing Fame in the spring. I. Am. So. Excited. I cant stop listening to it...its gonna be great! So I guess basically I've started this school year with a good attitude. Which is a big plus, because it's gonna be a tough one. Fun, but tough. I'll try to update this as much as possible...i know i slacked off alot over the summer. Ha...

So as far as the boy update? Ha no, i'm not that insane to the point where I'm still stuck on the same one. I did get to see him once this summer though. That was pretty cool. So don't worry, I'm completely over him. Then walked in another boy. sure enough. But I'm basically over him too. I guess you could consider that one a summer crush. Now? It's someone I have a chance with. Although he probably is the most confusing crush i couldve picked, hey. I have no control over it. I'm hoping homecoming rolls around and he gets his head on straight. Anyone wanna help me out? haa..

Well thats pretty much the shortest version I could give of what's happened in the past 4 months. I'll try to do this a little more periodically this time lol...peace outtttttttt.

last full week.

hey everyone

well this post is a little overdue I suppose.

Let's see...the BIGGEST thing thats happened to me so far was getting my PERMITTTT. thats right. I can DRIVE. well...with one of my parents in the car with me...HEY. It still counts. I went driving a few times this weekend. I'm actually not terrible! I almost ruined the paint job on my dads car pulling into the driveway today...but i got away with that one hehe.

Saturday was pretty crazy. I got up at about 8:30, showered, and drove over to St Al's. Once we got there we had the joseph auditions at around 10:00. Then at about 12:15 me and kathleen drove over to burger king for lunch, where she maneuvered her first drive-thru EVER, then we drove over to rehearsal. Hahaha fun shtuff. Our group is by FAR the best gossip group out of the 4. Don't lie. Then we got back in the car and drove back over to st al's, so we could finish the casting and have the meeting. After all that was finished, I went home, relaxed for a little bit, then went over to the mall with the madre. Got a few things there, then came home, and went to bed.

This morning I woke up at 12:30 (hehe)....damn that felt good. But the thing is, tomorrow, waking up at 6:15, isnt gonna feel so good. And this week's another full week of school. But we have HSA's. Not that that makes it fun or anything, but it kinda messes up the schedule, which is always interesting. First actual class of the day tomorrow? Shower's. UGH......not who i want to see first thing in the morning. EEEEK.

Well as far as the "boy" update, still no response. I have a feeling I'll get one sometime this week though. Hopefully. He should be home by now. Or at least coming home soon. But he was supposed to come home this weekend...hopefully i'll get a response soon enough!

Arite well i'm gonna go to sleep. Waking up tomorrow should be a joy. If I get an e-mail by friday, I'll update. But if i dont hear back from him by then, then the next update probably wont be till saturday or sunday.

catchin' up.

Well I suppose it's been a little while. I havent really felt like posting in a while...still in a little bit of a "mopey-dopey-poopy" (as rick and mr shea would say) kinda mood. Nothin really happened lately. Friday night I went out with kathleen...BOY i needed that. We talked...mostly about specific people...and pretty much everything else u can imagine. We went out to dinner at uno's where we paractically just sat for an hour, ate mozzarella sticks, and laughed our fricking heads off just talking about all the funny things that happened last year. I was almost in tears laughing at some of the things we talked about. Then we walked over to the mall since we had some time to kill, and talked some more. Then we went over to the movies and saw Scary Movie 4...haha good movie. So after that night i was feelin pretty good. Just bein' able to confess everything to someone i know and trust more than anything felt great...i needed it.
Saturday, Rick was at my house all day. We went exploring in the woods in my backyard hahaha...then i hada sneak him in the basement cause his feet were disgustingly muddy...it was fun tho. Then we just kinda sat on the computer, and he drove me over to Champs to meet all the TYA people. So I met up with them, we hung around, went to the movies...the movie s-u-c-k-e-d. Do NOT go see stick it. I thought it was TERRIBLE. I mean it could just be me, but I thought it was extremely boring. I've seen a million other movies like it...oh well. It was good to see tommy and everyone else again.
Then sunday...well it was your basic mothers day. wake up, serve the mom breakfast in bed (actually...i got outta that one this year...i slept in till 12:15 hehehe), go out with the fam, out to lunch, then out to do something else; this year it was go to barnes and nobles haha..., then we just came home. So it was a pretty good weekend overall.
So I'm hoping this week moves a little faster? Today I had school, chiropractor, and rehearsal. Rehearsal was fun, but school and the chiro were as fun as they were gonna get. OH and i got my haircut too!! That was good. And just so everybody knows...I get my permit in 3 days ;)
Arite. I suppose thats it. Still no response from him, but his finals are over wednesday and he should be coming home saturday!

photograph.

hey hey

First I would like to say a HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to KATHLEEN LEVENDUSKY for becoming the newest drum major of Centennial High School!

Last night I bought a few new songs on iTunes. Not really sure why...I guess I needed something new to listen to. Tryin to get myself outta the dumps and all.

I bought the song "Photograph" by Nickelback. Sure, I've heard the song millions of times...well...billions of times. But I figured I would just buy it for the heck of it. I was laying in bed last night listening to it, and as i listened to the lyrics over and over again, I couldn't help but think of all the crazy pics i have from HCST last summer. The lyrics (for the most part) fit perfectly with everything. I couldn't help but start to laugh. It wasn't like I was laughing at something funny, it was more like I was laughing an "emotional" laugh. I miss it, I'll be perfectly frank, but I'm excited to see what this year brings. After listening to the song half a dozen times, having constant slideshows and flashbacks of all the pics and memories I have from last year, and not being able to sleep, I started making a slideshow with the pics, and used "Photograph" as the background song. Just looking at all the pics over again made me get teared up...laughing harder then i ever have over some of them.

I'm posting some of them on here just to show you a part of what I experienced last summer; something i'll never be able to forget about.




I would post more, but this stupid website only lets me post 5. It was really hard to choose. So for anyone who wants to see the rest- they're all on my webshots page (http://community.webshots.com/user/amerigal99 ) if you're interested.

Well I gotta run...my brother just fell asleep on the floor and I should move him before the lollipop he was eating gets stuck to my carpet (this should be fun).

depressed much?

heyy

Well, I don't know how else to say it. I'm pretty freaking b-u-m-m-e-d. As it turns out, he didn't audition. Meaning he's not in the show. Which got me pretty damn upset. Not gonna lie. I had a really rough night last night...i tried to cover it up but it was a little difficult. Especially at rehearsal. I sang, acted happy, and yeah, i was happy to see all my friends again. But i was really expecting him to be there. Today i was pretty pissy all day...but i'm hoping ill get over this. I've never exactly been depressed before...but i'm experiencing it for the first time in my life. I hate this. Hopefully it'll go away soon...its hard not to think about it...or him for that matter.

I sent an e-mail to him...that made me feel a little better. Hopefully i'll get a response soon enough. Oh well.

Other than that "fiasco", rehearsal went great! I'm excited for this production, and I'm gonna make the best of it. I know i'm still going to have fun. I think it's impossible not to.

just waitin' for the days to fly by...

hey hey hey
wow...this weekend went by FAST. i feel like 10 minutes ago i was sitting here typing "T-G-I-fricking-F" into the subject bar, and here i am now, at 10:18 at night on a sunday. ha....wow.

Yesterday i was at my uncles house all day for my cousin's 2nd bday party. I bet you can imagine how fun that was. Hellz yeah. A BLAST. We even had a big sign with little trains and trucks on it that said "HAPPY BIRTHDAY BENJAMIN!" Talk about one hell of a party.

If you couldn't tell, that entire paragraph was sarcasm.

Today i got up at a time too early to mention to go teach the pre-k kids for the last time. Thank GOD. I must say though, i'm gonna miss some of the conversations i had with them. It's amazing to hear what goes on through a 4 year old's mind sometimes. I think this was the best conversation of them all:


Briana: Okay guys. Who else in your family do you listen to?
Emma: I
listen to my aunt and uncle!
Katie: I listen to my grandpa!
Tommy: I
listen to my grandma!
Danielle: My grandma died!

Yeah...we had QUITE the group of kids. I'm gonna miss em.

And that was about it! My grandparents came over and stayed too long, but thats nothing new. And now im sitting here about to go to sleep. HCST STARTS TOMORROW!!!! haaa....god knows what im gonna be like in school tomorrow.

1 DAY TILL ME AND MY GIRL '06!

11 days till my permit

27 days till freedom (blech)

PS--for a LITTLE taste of what you're gonna be seeing this summer--take a wild guess at who this is ;)

T-G-I-fricking-F.

hey hey

all i gotta say is thank god for friday nights. The week's finally over, yet this weekend STILL manages to be just as crazy. So tonight is basically my only chance of silence before this weekend begins. Tomorrow I'm going over to my cousin's house for his birthday party thing...then my cousins matt, nick, and michelle are all comin to stay at my house. FUN. i may just have to lock my door for the rest of the weekend. we'll see. Well matt's not that bad. I have a feeling that its gonna be BOTH of us locked in my room hahaha...so feel free to call or IM me ANYTIME AT ALL this weekend. I'm supposed to go see RENT in D.C. with erin on sunday , only i don't think that's gonna happen. with my cousins being in and all, i dont think my parents are gonna let me go, considering i really don't see them that often. We'll see.

So. The big news now is spring formal. Who I'm going with? I don't know. If I'm going with a date or a big group of people? I don't know. I still have to buy my dress (which isn't exactly fun to me haha), and figure out plans. I may just try and get a big group to go. I think I'm gonna go with my sophomore friends this time...considering i did the whole "freshman" thing for homecoming. Maybe I'll see if rick and jocy and...i dunno, other people wanna go together. Who knows. If anyone wants to go together lemme kno!

Ummm other than that it's been pretty laid back here. Oh! I realized today that i get my permit in 13 days!!! My mom's going to get her license "renewed" pretty soon, so i think shes just gonna take me then. AHHH I CANT WAIT!!! Yet ANOTHER countdown to add to my list.

Countdowns.
  1. FREEDOM-27 days.
  2. My PERMIT!!!-13 days.
  3. Spring Formal- 15 days.
  4. HCST!-3 days! (and supposedly, as i found out today, this person WILL be returning! that makes me.....VERY....very happy :] )

Alrighty. Save me at ANY time this weekend. Please. Don't hesitate.
