So, I know it's been a while, but I'm making an attempt to return to the inter-world. I really didn't mean to get so detatched and all, but I had been really busy, and then I couldn't get back into the swing of it. It's summer now though, so I don't have much to hold me back. I figured I'd just take a dive in. I've really missed all the friends I could only really contact on the internet. So . . . love and accept me!
The run down:
I graduated high school (sweet!)
I will be attending SIUE this fall as a theater performance major (awesome!)
Brady's all Navy-ed up and in Charleston
I'm taking a road trip to California with three other friends at the end of July (reality pending, but still SUPER AWESOME!)
I'm having a graduation/birthday party thing June 17th, and I want whoever can to come! Especially you Rally! So, if you see this please come! It's from 1-5. I haven't seen you for ages and I miss you a lot! <3
I'm not sure about going back to Gaia. Just the idea sounds painful. I'll probably hate it. Dag.
I want to have a Miyazaki film fest. That'd be fun.
I need to wash my car.
I don't really expect this to be noticed. D:

That was lame. After catching up on everyone else's LJ, I really have a lot to say, but it's just been so long I don't know where to start. I just don't really want to start out and sound like I'm whining. Pff.
If I don't get into Roosevelt or Columbia, I'm going to ISU. I've decided. I'm going to double major in Acting and Theatre Education with an English minor. Or however that works.
It feels weird.
I'm so done with high school. I'm ready to get out. I'm fucking sick of it. Every part of it. Even drama has become blah. Everything has changed, everything that I loved about it. Maybe I'm being overdramatic about it. Whatev.
Brady's joining the Navy. This coming spring. Weird. I get his car though, FINALLY.
Weird.
Everything's weird.
Um. I don't know. I feel lame.

It feels like it should be Christmas.
Maybe it's because it's 66 degrees in my house and my parents refuse to turn on the heat.

There's an indy horror film festival showing a couple nights this week at the Normal Theater. I definitely want to go. It's like, 8 dolla, but it'll be super awesome. There's gonna be some vaguely famous people there too, I don't remember who though. Neat.
I have too much to do that is in relation with school. I feel like I'm in over my head right now. Suck. And all this college crap. Yeah, whatev. I just want to sleep for a couple days straight. Like...a week.
Anyone played Fable for the PC yet? I know it hasn't been out for long... Tell me if it's worth buying. I need something to kill brain cells and keep me from doing schoolwork.

I kind of forgot about the internet for a while there.
School started. Having fun, high school's great, I love homework, so on and so forth.
Teehee.
At least drama is starting up. I think we're starting earlier this year? I don't know. Whatev. I'm already feeling the pressures of being Thespian president though, and Ross keeps getting on my case. I will fuck him up. Well, I like him too much to fuck him up. But I might yell a little.
I hope I get a part in the play. Especially Mrs. Kendell. But I kind of don't. It's never been this complicated before. D: We're doing The Elephant Man, for those who don't know. It's kind of a crazy script. Really, really dark.
My classes aren't too bad. I actually like them for the most part, with the exception of Bio and Grammar. Otherwise, it's okay. I just hope it stays okay. It's really important that I have a good GPA this year. Yah.
It's weird being around all these people again. I forgot how much I hated a lot of them. And I forgot how fun it is sometimes too. Some of them I just plain forgot existed. Ha. It really wasn't a bad start overall, and it looks like it might be a pretty good year.
That is all.

So I got my ears done. I ended up getting two on my right cartilage since I had to pay for two earrings anyway. I don't think my pop was too happy about it, but I think it's super-cute so I don't care. It didn't hurt too bad when it was done, though my cartilage is really sore right now. I've practically forgotten I just got my lobes done; they don't hurt at all. I also got my hair cut. I really like it actually, which is weird because usually I don't like my hair too short, but it's pretty short and looks really nice. Then I bought a bunch of clothes. Well, my mom paid for them. Sweetness. She bought me two pairs of pants from American Eagle, which are really nice, but really expensive. I was actually going to choose between one of two pairs, then she just bought them both anyway. :D Tomorrow's adventure: more t-shirts and undies! And I don't have to pay a cent. Life before a job is so nice.

I got the okay to get my lobes pierced again, and once on my cartilage. It's a start. I'm not sure if I want to get the cartilage pierced on my left ear, or right. Maybe I'll decide at the last possible moment. That sounds like fun. :] I'm getting it done tomorrow. Hopefully I can get my mom to buy me new earrings. ;D
Registered today for school. It was a blast. I got to see all the people that I sadly have to spend another year with. Oh, it'll be a happy day when I don't have to see them again. Not that I hold any animosity towards them. Well, not all of them anyway. And J. Nuck was a total bitch to me and my mom. My whole english class last semester was fined for not turning in two books, and oddly enough, they weren't suspicious that maybe there was a problem. Hmm. So when we talked to Nuckolls about it, she was like, "well, just come in tomorrow and look for your book as proof that you turned it in." Fuck no! I wasn't about to go through all those books. Well, I think we raised enough hell that they're actually going to research the problem. I just don't understand how Ms. Scott hasn't said anything to anyone about it. Whatev. It's all fucked up.
I'm sort of looking forward to school. I just want to get it over with so I can go to college. I want to do really well though, so I might have a chance at getting into Roosevelt. It'll be tough though. Here's my first semester:
1- Consumer Ed w/ Freymann
2- Dance Fitness w/ Ewalt
3- Cmp/Vocab/Gr w/ Sansone
4- Psychology w/ Suess
5- homeroom/lunch
6- Sociology w/ Libert
7- Bio 2 w/ Bowers
8- Adv Studio 2 w/ Kelly
Well, it doesn't look too bad. Bio and CVG are gonna suck hardcore though. I only had two science credits though, and I though it would look better if I had three. I'll probably hate myself for that. And I took CVG because they recommend a grammar class. Whatever. I'll probably never need it. I don't know who the first three teachers are, or Bowers. I guess I'll find out.
I grabbed the drama schedule too. For the Fall Play we're doing The Elephant Man, which I know nothing about. We're doing One Acts again, but that's TBA, and, of course, so is SOS. But the thing I'm most excited about is the contest play, which is A Midsummer Night's Dream! I'm going to try really hard to get a part, and if I do, play it well. I really, really want to do well this time, since we've at least got some experience behind us. I wonder how Vernon cut it, or if she even did yet. It'll be a tough one. I'm surprised she picked something classic for contest.
My mom got me a parking sticker for her car, which is awesome, but I won't be able to use it every day, which is less awesome. But at least I won't be riding the bus the whole year. I think I'd seriously break down if I had to go through that one more time. Though the bus driver always gave us random food, which was kind of nice. :D But sadly it didn't do anything about the crappy music and irritating people around me. Ho-well. I'd much rather take the Santa Fe sometimes than deal with that every day.
Um. End. Kudos if you actually read/skimmed all that.

Well, I have nothing important or interesting to update about, but I'll update anyway.
Where to start?
Well, I need to go shopping. Superbad. For clothes. And I'm hoping I can convince my dad to let me get my ears pierced. I want my lobes pierced again, my cartilage pierced twice in one ear, then an industrial and another cartalige in the other. I have it all planned out. I'll get it done when I'm 18 anyway, even if my dad says not to, but I'd rather do it sooner than later. I won't pierce any other part of my body though. I like eyebrow and nose piercings, but I don't want to get any because I'm afraid it would hurt my options as an actor. Yup.
I want to set up a shin-dig before school starts again. Rally and Cindy, you guys should tell me if you'd like to, then we could work it out. We could just hang out at my house, eat pizza, and watch movies again. :D I'll see if Colleen wants to come too, and if either of you think of someone else to invite, tell me so. :3
The new computer is and Hp, and is really nice. And it has a lightscribe CD and DVD writer ma-thing, which is freaking sweet, but the CDs for it are expensive. I have yet to try it out. And it came with an aquarium screensaver! ^___^
Okay, I'm done.

I visited my grandmother on sunday. She was doing okay sort of. She's still really sick, but I think she's a little better now. I feel bad for her.
We stayed the night at my aunt's house, then on Monday we drove to Chicago. We were supposed to take the train from Aurora, but there was no parking, except for after 9:00, but that would have gotten us to Chicago after 11:00, and the program started at 10:00. It totally sucked. So we ended up driving, which got us there right on time, so it all worked out.
Roosevelt is awesome. I want to go more than ever now, but it's so expensive and competetive. I went to the performance arts lecture/Q&A, and the man speaking said that they accept 10 boys and 10 girls into the theatre program, and same for musical theatre. The only good thing is that since musical theatre is more popular, I have a better chance getting into acting. It sounds so cool though, and I really want to do it.
We got a tour of the dorms too. There are two buildings, one that was built just a couple years ago. The old building is pretty standard. It was alright, but the new building was amazing. All of the rooms are bigger than my room. The nicer suites had two to a bathroom, and the semi-suites were two rooms with a bathroom connecting them, which is still hella better than the one public bathroom on each floor. They're expensive though, but I think if I get a good job next summer I can at least have that covered.
Well, it was a lot of fun. I'd kill to live in the city, and Roosevelt is right in the center of it, right where I want to be. I'm going to try really hard this year so I'll have a better chance of getting in. I don't know if I could accept going to ISU over Roosevelt.

I no longer have red hair. Mother made me dye it to a more natural color for family and senior pictures. So I sat in a hair salon, Colorific!, for THREE HOURS and I now have dark brown hair. I actually like it; it's better than blond, but I'm missing the red. :[ Oh well.
Senior pictures on thursday. Sucks.
I'm going to Chicago and visiting Roosevelt on the 1st, which I'm pretty excited about. We'll have some time to run around, and I'm hoping I can blow some cash on new shoes. I really want bright red high heels. X] But I need to buy like fifty CDs too. I really want the new Xiu Xiu CD, and Joanna Newsom since my burned copy got all fucked up.
La la la.
I've decided to get a desktop, though I'm still not sure what kind. Not a Dell since that was what my last one was, and obviously that didn't work out so well. Laptops are nice, but I don't know...I think I'll be happier with a desktop. I hope I don't regret it later. :\
Saw Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I like it very much, and I think I liked it better than Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, but I still hate those fucking Oompa Loompas. They're just retarded, no matter how you portray them. D:
I also saw Howl's Moving Castle. It was so good, though I think it's by far Miyazaki's weirdest movie yet. I think it's probably up there with Spirited Away for me, which is my favorite of his movies. :3 Yay!
Okay. End.

The ultimate question: Laptop or desktop?
My parents are going to buy me a nice new computer as an early graduation present, since my other one died and all, and they gave me the choice. I'm really not sure which to get. I'd love to have a laptop I could carry around places, but I wouldn't be able to play games on it like I could with a desktop. It'd be easier to take a laptop with me to college too. Either way I'd get wireless internet. Ho hum. Opinions from my loving public? :D
Anyone have suggestions on brands and models? I really know next to nothing in that matter. D:
I have the budget of 2 grand, since that's how much Brady's computer was.
Yup.

It's very nice to sleep in my own bed again.
The trip wasn't too bad. It wasn't as good as the last time, I think. Not sure I'll go next year.
I got paint in my eye. That kind of sucked. And it was weird because right before that happened, I was talking with a friend about the book Tangerine, in which this kid goes blind from his brother spray-painting his eyes. So, I thought I was going to go blind. But I didn't, and it stopped hurting after a couple hours. I also slipped in mud, and busted bothe my knees on seperate occasions. It was good times. :D
Brady ruined Harry Potter for me. He told me who died. sALDJFklasfhdtklajwrelh kfj easdkljfklewjsd flkgjlnvFuckyoubrady. D:<
Oh well. I'm about half-way through it now, and loving it. :D
I might see Charlie and the Choclate Factory today. Can't wait! I don't care what anyone says, I'm going to love it even if it sucks. Which it won't. Don't be so negative. >:O
That was to no one in particular.
I'm not going to get a new computer for a long time. It makes me sad. :[
I have a bad cold. It makes me sad. :[
The End.
