Oye Vey

Okay, so I admit....last entry was the quiet before the storm. Yikes. So much stuff to do...so little time. Not to mention my stupid school work that continues to pile up. I wish it would stop just for this week. Darn you ancient Greece! The other day I checked my email and my teacher referred to us as "athenians" and I thought to myself....Are you kidding me? Then I realized she was doing it all semester. Apparently I'm an Athenian now. I'd just like to say that Dimitri Martin cracks me up...he's so unbelievably witty (or switty), and I wish he lived in Tampa, Florida and was my bff. Because this blog is taking me so long...now this show has come on with this crazy bride who is so annoying I want to punch her in the face. My first question is...how could you marry this nut job? But my second question is why does she remind me so much of my sister at this point in time? JUSSSST KIDDING! I only ironed like 75,000 chair linens today. No big deal. I think I'm going to sneak on the Pilatus and fly away with Cara and Dustin to the Bahamas. =] I have a quiz tomorrow on some Greek play called "The Clouds" that I haven't read, but I found it on sparknotes, so I should be golden, right?

Back to Real Life

"Real Life". I love how we always use that as a negative connotation. haha. Well, here I am. Monday has just passed and I am in fact back to this thing we call real life. So long Spring Break...how I'll miss you and the laziness you allowed me. We got nothing done at play practice due to the fact that we talked and fooled around the entire time--it seems getting back into the swing of things wasn't as easy as we thought. It was fun none the less. We made a pact that on Wednesday we will preform to our best abilities once again. In my Arts and Films against totalitarian regimes class we....watched another movie! We've been doing so for about two months straight, and I am now fluent in German, Russian, and Polish. Just kidding. On a more honest note, work has been seriously sucking. I cannot lie when I say I want to quit everytime I go into work. I'm usually one to have a good time at work. I love the people I work with etc...but our managers are really becoming unbearable. Hopefully I won't be on the six o'clock news for knocking one of their fronts out. Actually, I usually just kill them with kindness...I think that hurts worse for them considering they are miserable people. The wedding is April fourth, which makes it less than two weeks away. I feel that this is the quiet before the storm, because nobody is currently freaking out. Just wait a few days...it'll come I'm sure. My dress has arrived, and hopefully I still fit in it--I went on an eating binge while in Pittsburgh and I totally blame Tiffany. I also blame the Jews for creating bagels.

So, we celebrated Frankie's 28th birthday (you old hag) and our very pregnant Sarah was so cute. It's been awhile since I've seen them and since Meghan and I haven't been balling on Mondays, it was good to see them again. There was about seven million people there, and the dogs of course. Rock band was on one TV and March Madness on the other. I was extremely fortunate to catch this footage of a very non-enthusiastic Sarah singing while that crazy girl on the drums (who claimed it was easier when she used her hands instead of the sticks) was going nuts. Luke kept it pretty normal on the guitty. I don't know why, but the entire time, Sarah was so funny when she sang:


24 was absolutely insane tonight. When the last seconds ticked away for this episode, my family just sat there open mouthed-while my brother let out a noooo. Next was is going to be CRAZYYYYY!!!

10 random things I am infamous for:

1. Having gum in my mouth like 99% of my life

2. My hair

3. Leaning into people's shoulders when I laugh

4. How much I love hugs

5. How awkward I am when a guy likes me and I don't like them (thanks tiffany)

6. My wide variety of shoes

7. Knowing the differences between Neo-Classical and Baroque, but not knowing how to get anywhere.

8. My facial expressions

9. Being a chronic napper

10. How extremely forgetful/absent minded/clutsy I can be

The Mid-Mid-Term Studying Update

Oh, it's going to be a crazy week. I have two midterms tomorrow, and quite frankly, I'm sick of studying for them. Play practice before class once again, then come my two midterms. After this is when the madness begins. I must go home and pack, probably not sleep, drive to Lakeland to meet Tiffany, then Drive to Pennsylvania. I fear for the rare form I will most likely take on not only the ride there, but the remainder of the trip. This will cause embarassing but surely hilarious video/picture evidence I'm sure. I really have no idea what we're doing there, but it's going to be chilly, and I'm excited. Break out the pea coats and scarves ladies and gentlemen...yayyyy! Am I procrastinating by writing this right now? Yes, but I feel like I can't concentrate with my thoughts all jumbled, so I'll get them all out and continue to embrace 5th century Athens for all it's worth.


Out at Sea is coming along, and I'm excited to announce that we are going with our original thought and playing the men instead of switching it to women. I'm excited for no other reason except that we will be wearing suits, ties, and pocket squares. How glad am I that the script calls for this? Extremely. I finally get to pick out my own men's dress clothes outfit! hahaha. I need to learn how to tie a tie. My dad obviously knows how since he wears them everyday, but he ties them really tight with a little ugly knot like they did in 1984. The main characters are Fat, Medium, and Thin to which I play Thin. I need a slimming suit.


I miss Kirsten. Her aura is so far away, and I just don't like it. :[ I'm really not sure what an aura is, but Schadrac and I used to talk about them like we knew, and give people's auras colors as we catered to them. He said my aura was a mix of colors because I'm all over the place, and I told him that his was black because he's black. 24 was ridiculous this week, and the death of Bill Buchanan (May he R.I.P.)might be the closest i've ever cried while watching television. Just kidding, 24 has trained me in only semi-lamenting the death of main characters. THERE'S NO TIME FOR MOURNING IN 24! Bill took one for the team, so I'll commemorate him below:


Today at work, I got a 20 dollar tip on a 33 dollar check. I'm really not sure why they did that, but it made me feel like a super server. My new phone is on its way. GOODBYE NAVY BLUE SAMSUNG SLIDER PHONE FROM HELL!!! My new phone has a keypad so I can text just as quickly as the rest of the world. It is making its way through the US Postal Service as we speak. The tribal burning ceremonies for navybluesamsungsliderphonefromhell will be held the day following the receiving of my new glorious white and teal gravity phone. The little kiddies are gearing up for fine arts. I'm pretty stoked....they're going to be amazing ORLANDO, HERE WE COME! (Yes it is reference to where the district competition will be held, as well as a call out to Orlando Faith who we will out-dramatize if it's the last thing we do). Alright, I suppose I've written enough. I will continue to study as well as fill the insatiable craving for salt I have by eating these pretzels. Ciao my loves!

An Oldschool Ode to the Old Tiffany and I

So, I was going through some pictures on the old lappy toppy, and I came across some of these videos. A confirmation that whilst living together, Tiffany and I caused eachother mutual insanity. I honestly don't even remember taping some of these. It was fun though, and that's why I figured I'd post a few. Oh yes, there's even more than this. The beginning of College couldn't have been any more hilarious.This is really for Tiffany...I love you girl! hahahaha

So I'm Up With My Little Brother Who Is Upchucking Like No Other

Poor Steve. The little guy has strep throat, and I heard these noises from the bathroom, and it turns out he was in there with the pukes. So now I'm sitting here with him as he makes frequent runs to the bathroom and watches cartoons in between then. He's kind of a trooper...he came back smiling from his last puke session. Maybe he just hates school that much, and this is his total get out of school free card.

Today I went to Ocala with my Mom to go to Cara's dress fitting. I really never knew how important a bustle was, or really how many ways one could be made. She looks smokin' but I was like seriously lady, they all look the same...just pick one. I took pictures, but I'm pretty sure Cara would kill me for unvieling (no pun intended) the product before April 4th. We also went to the new house, and I finally got to see the inside. Suddenly for the first time in my life, I now want a house. The kitchen made me want awesome dishes and kitchen stuff, and made me want to cook. However, it made me realize I need husband to wash those dishes, because I'm surely not doing them. bahaha. Her walls were so empty, and I felt the undying urge to put some sick artwork on them. I suppose I'll have to wait the 35 years before I'll have my own house to do that.

Wii recording was fun. I got my Steve Irwin on, as well as an array of other fine voices. I've come to the conclusion that I really hate hearing my own voice, and I feel bad for all you unfortunate people that have to hear it all the time. I'm pretty sure it's cold in Pittsburg, so I'm going to go ahead and use that as an excuse for some new shoes, or something.
Did you know March 7th is national doodle day? Because doodling is truly one of my favorite hobbies during class time, I think it's a good opportunity for everyone to make a little doodle. Be sure to show me your doodles, as I am very interested to see them.



Top Ten Reasons I Love My Family (In no order):
1. The sibs are all so close...life is best when we're all together.
2. We all make fun of eachother, and we all laugh about it.
3. We have the best dinners.
4. My older brother is probably the funniest person I know.
5. I can always be 100% myself around them.
6. My mom is the best role model in the world.
7. There is never silence.
8. There is nothing like watching sports with them.
9. My dad and my mom are crazy different, but it works.
10. No matter what the situation, we somehow find the humor in it.

Wiicording Today

So, I got a part in the game...I'll be sporting an Australian accent. I'll start Wiicording at 5pm today...I'm sure it's going to be really fun! School is kicking my behind--I cannot wait for Spring Break. Tiffany and I are going to go to Pittsburg! I wonder if we're going to freeze our behinds off now that I'm thinking about it. Seriously though, I've had no time to think about it, and I'm finally starting to get excited--I'm pretty sure the sixteen hour drive is going to be cah-razy!


And this is why I want a weiner dog:






I'm friggen tired. Goodnight my loves.

A Quick Update With a Bit of Immaturity

For the update:

The Wii auditions were so fun! Today was our first practice for "Out at Sea". It went fantastically...we're going to have a lot of fun. It's a great group of people.

I just can't believe it...it's going to be so weird not having her right near me like she always is. :( She is going to be severely missed. The bridal shower is finally done!
