Oh Bother

why do I have time?
I don't know....Gilmore Girls isn't for another ah 20 min. I suppose I could be reading Lorca. Or do my directing Homework. I hate this RA shit sometimes. It makes me too busy to fill up my time properly. I need to move into the theatre again. I am now doing sound for You Can't Take it With you...which will be fun. Explosians and music picked by me!!! Woooooooo. I just auditioned as a male for a caberet. I do have a disturbingly low voice. I mean in choir, I sometime sang with the tennors. Hmmm I quote something I learned at BADA in directing today and my prof went all "that's a bunch of bullshit" on me...I always find it funny when professionals disagree so passionately. I still believe the "bullshit" BADA taught me. I mean, shit, the woman came from RADA, and to me...that's close to godliness. Wow I am rambling. I have to start writing plays again.

I was eaten by facebook
So I haven't updated in well months...I think it's because Facebook ate my soul. I love the stupid thing. Hmmm what's knew? Crazy nights...partying like a 4th-grader (eating junk food, playing mafia, crainium, apples to apples...) watching movies. Sending my hurt brother an ironic gift. No seriously people what do you send your brother who broke his hand? I'll let him tell you when he gets the package. Hmm watching Degrassi...yes my friend has the first season on dvd...I know it is sad. Uh. I miss Teri and Jenny like too much to really say. I also am freaking cauz my bro is broken and I can't fix it. So I love you all. And if I haven't added you as a friend in facebook it's cauz I haven't figured out how to do it. For some reason I can only search colleges from A-B and R-Z...so if you are from Oregon you have no love. Ok well that's all.

El Salvador
Hey yall. I am having a lovely time here in El Salvador... and so are the mosquitos (they like me a lot). I haven´t burned into a lobster yet. Life is good. The family here is amazing and I love them. Pretty much all is good. I love papusas (fried tortillas stuffed with cheese). Luis (un hombre) says that they are El Salvador´s pizza. Ooh agua de coca is really good too. So is the ocean, so warm. I stary work tomorrow, wish me luck. So far my spanish is ok perro no es muy bueno. The family I am staying with understands me ok, but since they host may voluteers, they are used to very broken spanish. Well thats all for now folks.

Chemistry= BOOH!
that's pretty much it.
Ps come to Colony tonight at 7 and make frames.

Why is it raining?
Ok I know it rains here like all the time, but not like where all you whitties live. When I dreamt about home it is supposed to be sunshiny! Actually I love it here. I sat down and watched tv with my mom, I can't tell you how nice that feels. Anyway if any of you guys up north are board and want a secret mission. You should find some way to get into my locked room and feed my starving fish. It's only like 2 days so, he'll be fine...maybe you could just walk by and shout some words of encouragement to him like "Indie hang in there" or "don't die" or "you don't need food, you are Indianna Jones, a survivor!" Alright, I am going to go to bed, then wake up and be a couch potato...ooh and read the rest of Shadow of the Hegemon. I didn't read Ender's Shadow first so I kinda ruined the ending of that book for myself , but hey I have nothing but love for Orson Scott Card and will read all of his books if it takes me a lifetime. Goodnight all.

yay for today
My friends and family rock my sox! They are the greatest people to walk the earth. Who knew 20 would be so good? That is all...ps thanks.

mi estoomico duele
that is terrible spanish for "my stomach hurts." My housemates locked me in a room with a carton of mint chocolate chip ice cream to finish (between the 3 of us). It was an interesting birthday present, but super nice and fun, I just have a stomach acke now. I also recieved timely phone calls from 2 of my favorite people. (bro and sam). So far, 20 is not so bad. Too bad I hate being old. Hmm well goodnight folks....I am swearing off ice cream for at least a week...a good week. EHHH gross!

Conspiracy!!!!
Ok so I lost my favorite monolouge book on the way to the Library last year. I returned a big stack of books and was going to memorize a monolouge from it. It is pink and cool and there is no reason Penrose would have it. So I lost it. I looked everywhere, including the Library. I asked if they had gotten my book by mistake, it's not in their system it is MINE. They said no. I asked them if it ever showed up to let me know...that was a year ago. What did I see today? My friend was checking MY BOOK out!!!! Penrose stole my favorite book. I am SOOOOO mad! WTF! Dude, I am paying enough money to go to this college, they should have the respect to buy their own books!!!

back to the same old
My parents came this weekend. It was so nice to see them and hangout with Dave, Jiffer and their baby as well. We went thrifting, I got new chairs. My room is a hang out heaven. I ate a lot of chocolate. It was all good. I hate having birthdays in the middle of the week cauz then you have to celebrate it later and completely ignore it on the actual day. OOh my bro got me Circle, my parents and I watched it, it was soooo funny. They now love Eddie Izzard as much as me. Hmm what else? Oh I hate when you like someone, they know you like them, but they don't like you, but you still think that there is hope. Why can't they just be mean or yell "I hate you, you stupid bitch" that way I wouldn't pine as I do. I know quite a lot of people in the same situation. Its funny, I am in a scene that basically has the characters acting out my life. Shouldn't be too hard to relate to my rejected character. Sorry this is so jumbled... Oh why did I title this entry "back to the same old"? I just would like to inform everyone that I have not done my reading or any hw and I am now going to watch a movie. So much for a head start.

putting this out there
I am not a bitter, tense, edgy, ball of stress. I swear, I like people. I hung out at Prentiss and Douglas today, and did my homework and got some sound done. See I can do it all. I am not crazy. I like people. I am a people person. I am sunshine in a box! I am all kinds of friendly...wait no. But anyway, yes, I admit I haven't made it over to Jewett, or Lyman...or the Writing house or Glo-ho, but it's on my list of priorities next to eating and sleeping and breathing. I'll just have to pencil it in. All under control. It's like clockwork. So...yeah how about them Acadamy Award nominations (checks schedual for small talk). Nevermind gotta go!
ps. doesn't the bear in the emoticon look like it's doing something kinda wrong to that pencil?

Reading is over rated.
That is all I really have to say. I've never really done it before for class, why do it now. Hmmmph! I hate long articles...just give me the abstract. What is up with this early semester optimism and resolution making? I mean, I will eventually slack, whats the point in trying at the beginning? On a side note, I so learned how to play bridge today. There is going to be a weekly game every sunday. I am going to get so good and finally I can participate at family gatherings. It actually is fun. I would have never guessed. Wes and I are going to school my parents.

Oh what have I gotten my self into?
I am crazy, I have way too much to do, but I love all my classes. I should drop something, I am already burnt out. My chem teacher went on a rant yesterday about how the enviornment effects all majors. He asked us to yell out all of our majors. So people were yelling, English, Phyc, History..yada...Meanwhile I am just laughing. After he has drawn significance to all the 'real' majors, I manage to say meeking "Theatre?" He looks at me and smiles, the rest of the class laughs. Let's just say this guy had made fun of all the majors so far and well he gives me this look like I just gave him excellent material for a comedy routine. But, he just said "they should make more enviornmental movies, stupid corporations won't fund them"...and we moved on. I now have to go to Ancient theatre where will discuss why Eteocles is doomed because his father is really a mother-%@#*^&. Then I go to ballet, yeah you read that right, what what!
PS it is soooo beautiful outside! My window are full of light. I want to go study on a bench by Narnia.Yay Friday! Yay sun!

Fist day of class
So I am now in a full house. My residents have already found out that I am easy to tease...it was only a matter of seconds. So far, it's awesome. Classes, I had 4 today, It was quite easy though, all of my profs let us out early. My enviornmental chem prof is kinda crazy. He basically said "if you are religious or republican this is not the place to be." He also went on a rant about how politics has everything to do with chemistry and that Bush is scientifically inept. He also said that if we don't like the class and write a bad eval it doesn't matter because he has ten-year. The guy was incredibly loud, angry, and absolutely entertaining. I thought I'd drop it, but too many cool people I love are in it...and I kinda just want to stay to hear first hand the weird stuff this guys says. He also curses a lot, it's great! Tomorrow I have ancient theatre, the prof is supposed to rock, I am reading 13 books for this class, like every play a Greek man has ever written. Fun Fun. Well Pink Martini is playing soon and I want to get a good seat.

Happy New Year
Happy New Year! Guess how I spent my news year's eve?
a) partying
b) hanging out with family
c) saving fish from local fisherman
d) sick and puking up everything while watching "1 love the 90's" on VH1 alone

Sadly it was D) I didn't even get the chance to party before I was praying to the porcilin gods. Stupid 24 flu ruined my New years. Oh well. Now it is time to drive back to Whitman for RA training. I have to brave the elements...ahhhh. I hope big blue doesn't die while driving over the columbia this time. I am actually kinda scared. I am driving alone after I get to Eugene, that's six hours of just Lisa, Big Blue, and Snow. Wish me luck.

Sigh
She's fine, sorry to cause alarm. Oh goodness, breathing is good.

Current Mood: relieved

Shock
Ok so I didn't realize that world news could have this effect on me. I am shaking. The tsunami hit Sri Lanka. I have two friends studying abroad there. I know Mike is fine. He emailed us. I haven't heard from Grinn. I am looking over her letters. She said she hung out at the beach a lot, I don't know if that meant she was living near the coast, I mean Mike's ok...Oh my god. I don't mean to freak people out. It's horrible. The death counts are increasing. If you know anything, if you've heard from her...Please tell me she's ok!

Current Mood: worried

like a pile of bricks
Its crazy. I had a hundred million questions in my mind today. Do's and don'ts. Who and what will the rest of my life involve. Decisions. Theatre, teaching, spanish, RA, shows, certain someones, majors, requirements, study abroad...where the fuck am I going. I sat down and just pounded my head as if that would help. So then I blasted Verticle Horzion into my ear phones until my hears actually hurt. I love acting...I love teaching...I don't want to kill myself with work. I want to go abroad. I want to be an RA. I want to do a hundred million things. I can't doooo everything. Then, like a pile of bricks, it hit me. I don't want to be an English-Drama teacher, that's what everyone else said I wanted to do. NO. I want to be an elementray school teacher at a public, bi-lingual school. Thats what I want. I don't need to spend every waking moment in the theatre making connections and gaining experience for a resume...I don't need that. I still will major in theatre, just not for the rest of my life. It makes so much sense. I am going to be the RA of the Fine Arts house. I am going to be a spanish/theatre double major. I am going to not do shows for a year, that's ok. I think I am going to be ok with that. This is going to rock...if you are still reading...cool....Sorry to bore you with my ramblings. You have no idea the craziness that's been going on in my brain.

No more whining...What up?
So it's been brought to my attention, that I only whine on my live journal. Hmmm, this is true. I find that whining to an online public, who don't actually have to read the shit I write is less annoying than playing "pity me" with all my friends. Even though I do do that sometimes too. Ok, well fine, but where else am I going to write obituaries for my dead fish? On a completely different note. What's up all my crazy friends on LJ who I never talk to. Any of you married yet, have children, maybe some living fish? If your fish have babies will you name one after Repunzel? Her legacy should live on and her life was so short in my fishbowl. No seriously, I'm a bit homesick...oh and I am Tanya sick too, I keep telling Jen she has ooogly boogly eyes but it's not the same. It's weird reading bits and pieces of your lives... and most of you only write when you have nothing to say or are really drunk, which is funny but not very telling. I guess what I am really saying is, it's almost Thanksgiving and I hope to see some old friends. I miss you....shit was that whining? Oh well.

My newest love!
Ok so we have IM dodgeball. I am on Team Awesome, and guess what, we are awesome! There is something so wonderful about pummeling people with spongy yellow balls! I love it, loooove it. I finally exercised and it was so awesome to get some aggression out. We have better cheers than my JV soft ball team. Who would have thought drama kids would be good at the very sport that plauged us in elementry school. Well I was never plauged by it, I was always in favor of sports where you got to hit people...hehe. I wish dodge ball was not just a movie, or weird show on the game show network. It needs to be mainstream. I mean it combinds, team-work, agility, speed, strategy, and pure funness. I reccomend starting leagues wherever you are!
