ha look what I found! lol

ha sweet.....lets see if it will let me upload another one....yes! Ha these are awesome!!!! Look what I do when I should be doing my homework? Well I was trying to find a copy of the court case of Detroit board of Ed versus Lincoln Park board of ed which my great-grandfather won for my city but I can't find it anywhere!!!! golly. I guess my family likes Michigan Supreme Court because we commissioned this picture for them:
















This is why my life is hard, I feel as though I need to live up to my family's big ol history and legacy. Just wait til I become a comedian because my family will make up like my entire act! lol

Great minds have the same fashion sense....=)

Ha me and Jamie had the same dress! and we got our hair done at the same place at the same time. Different styles though. lol So......our marching band theme for next year (even though I wont be there.) is 'I-pod Shuffle' We are going to play four random songs that might appear on someones i-pod. Because when you have it on shuffle songs play in a random order and most people have more than one kind of song on there. We were going to do a queen show but 'we are the champions' isn't in print anymore. =( poop. ok off the Girl Scout banquet that I helped to singlehandly (with 3 other girls) plan. Yes its my last girl scout function, besides mackinac but that's different.


ok catch you all on the flip side! (ha that was cheesey)

Even after all of that drama....

I had the time of my life! What a magical evening! I have more pictures but I'm too lazy to plug in the camera and my scanner just stopped working.....lol We did get lost getting there, but hey I think the funniest part was figuring out where we were! lol Everyone looked beautiful! The only hard part was that my dress was huge! I won't go into detail but imagine trying to go to the bathroom! lol
Well today I will just sit but I am not actually that tired. My hair stayed up, not one piece fell! lol
Congrats on Joelle and Jimmy on being prom prince and princess.

Now its time to graduate!!!

wtf

AHHHH! I just need to vent a little so bear with me. Ok so my friend just messaged me and this is what she said:
u know wat. if i find out that u just fucking screwed me 4 katie. the same girl who would barley talk 2 u this year and totally changed. u've been a bad friend anyways. do u wonder why we didn't do anything 4 ur b-day? how can u treat us all like that? and it's not all about prom. we all were waiting 2 tell u this & i just wanted 2 wait until after prom cuz i didn't want 2 fight while we were there, but it seems that u have set me off. thanx 4 not being a friend. u were, but then u changed. just like katie. good bye

What the heck?! I'm sorry that katie has been my best friend since kindergarten. Im not going to turn my back on her just because you don't like her. Ever since we were 7 we had our proms planned out. You know if you don't want to ever talk to me agian fine. Its not like you ever were that nice to me. Remember chemistry 3rd hour last year? Everytime I voiced an opioion I was shot down. Do you know I asked Mr. Calvin to switch my seat? Whatever. I'll move on. But I am not immature and I'll be the bigger person and not fight back or gossip about you behind your back. I'm not like that. So fine. Goodbye to you too.

a joke for you all!

Ha end of the school year and everyone (including me....so the doctor says..) is stressed out so here is a joke for some comic relief that you can then pass on to your other equally geeky band friends!

A C, an E-flat, and a G go into a bar.

The bartender says: "Sorry, but we don't serve minors." So, the E-flat leaves, and the C and the G have an open fifth between them. After a few drinks, the fifth is diminished: the G is out flat. An F comes in and tries to augment the situation, but is not sharp enough. A D comes into the bar and heads straight for the bathroom saying, "Excuse me. I'll just be a second." An A comes into the bar, but the bartender is not convinced that this relative of C is not a minor. Then the bartender notices a B-flat hiding at the end of the bar and exclaims: "Get out now! You're the seventh minor I've found in this bar tonight."

The E-flat, not easily deflated, comes back to the bar the next night in a 3-piece suit with nicely shined shoes. The bartender (who used to have a nice corporate job until his company downsized) says: "You're looking sharp tonight, come on in! This could be a major development." This proves to be the case, as the E-flat takes off the suit, and everything else, and stands there au naturel. Eventually, the C sobers up, and realizes in horror that he's under a rest. The C is brought to trial, is found guilty of contributing to the diminution of a minor, and is sentenced to 10 years of DS without Coda at an upscale correctional facility. On appeal, however, the C is found innocent of any wrongdoing, even accidental, and that all accusations to the contrary are bassless. The bartender decides, however, that since he's only had tenor so patrons, the soprano out in the bathroom, and everything has become alto much treble, he needs a rest -- and closes the bar.


So yea the doctor said that I could develop the condition where you stop breathing at night. great. But he said it will be down the road like in my 40s or 50s. My 5th hour teachers brother died of that 2 days ago. (i mean he had other health issues but still)

PROM is like 2 days away! and you better know that I will have a ton of pictures!

Yay!

My dance team! 1st place!! Once I figure out how to upload videos, I will put p my video fo the routine. Thats my next project! lol

My 100th post! lol

Well I think we need some pictures all up in here! lol I got some new ones so here we go.....


OMG I got a job at America's Greatest History Attraction! lol


Look how excited I am about our uniform......not.


You mean a kid peed and we have to clean it up?!


At least I'm 18 now and so I am going to enjoy some cake with my grandpa.


Got this cute purse for my birthday!


I have been here for like 8 hours! Welcome to a baton compeition. lol CHAOS.


Yay my favorite color! I love my poms!


Yea, I am not too excited about our costumes.....lol


Salute your shorts was like the best show EVER!


This is a random picture, but I love it! lol Probably because everyone is looking in opposite directions! lol

Ha so spring break is almost over. I should be outside painting a bridge for the girl scout banquet, but I'm not. lol Augh I have so much hairspray in my hair, its not even funny. Well maybe it is, but hey.

stay safe!

Freaked out?! Scared?! maybe...

So this one time someone got my moms credit card # and bought a laptop with it. Ok. But it gets weirder. So I guess when the UPS guy dropped it off he said something like he'll be back to pick it up. Odd. Why would he pick up a package he just dropped off? So today I found a UPS note on the door saying that they tried to pick up a package. It said it was a laptop. How would the UPS people know we wanted a package picked up? Now my mom (and now me) is freaked out and is convinced someone is going to break in and steal stuff. We think the UPS man might be a crimnal or at least in on it. eerie.....Aren't you guys lucky you have an easy life? Crap and I am not worknig tomorrow so I will be home alone. c-rap.

So I guess my old elementary school is having this big party for it being opened for 50 years. Same day as my graduation party and I sorta have to go since they are honoring my family.....piddleizzle (is that even a word?! lol) But I think its in the morning so I might be able to go. ha I saw my 5th grade teacher and the sec. at Greenville VIllage today! lol and yesterday I saw Mr. Miller, our gym teacher. Who will I see next?! lol I was going to audio this...but my phone is like 5 rooms away lol. I should really just write down the number so I can use any phone but I don't. lol

Ha memories...

I'm bert. lol

How disgusting!

O...M...G... You guys will never guess what I just read in the paper.....but first some background on this story.....

It all started last Sunday at church. We were at the part of the service where we take requests for people who need prayers. We were told that a member of our church had recently been robbed at gun point. Apparently she services ATMs and was shoved into one and duck-taped to it. The story goes that a customer found her just in time as she was losing oxygen. I was like oh my I grew up with her, shes only 3 years older than me! I felt bad for the family and such. But not any more...I was reading the local paper today adn found this article that I found to be very interesting. Let's just say the title was "ATM victim not a victim, but really a robber." She was robbing the ATM and had her husband tied her up to make it seem like she was being robbed. But it was really her and her husband who were the ones robbing the bank. shame!!! Heres a link to the article from the Free Press...http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20060414/NEWS02/604140484/1004/NEWS

In other news......
Last night was the funniest Mauday Thursday EVER!...and thats sad because its supposed to be a mournful ceremony. Well I'm not sure if I can do the story justice by typing it so I might be audioing it up later on today! lol So watch for that...a little communion fun.

Yay tomorrow's my birthday!!! I'll finally be an adult.

Oh yeah and I am the Exchange Club Student of the Year. I was Student of the month in November, all of the months were eligible to go out for the Student of the Year. I was the only one to submit my essay. But it sorta stinks because all of the scholarships that I have recieved are all saving bonds. I know they will be helpful later on but like the need the money for college now...lol Thank god for my MET! lol

another awful day?! when will the sun come out?

Ok so this day totally sucked. And I didn't even know her, it just set the mood for the day.

This is how it went down...

I was excited because NHS was going on a field trip to read to kindergarteners today. As I was walking to first hour a bunch of teachers were called to teh media center. They said it was urgent. I didn't think too much of it besides that they called my first hour teacher down. Then an announcement came on for all the teachers to come down. I didn't know what to think, I mean there was only like 3 minutes until school starts. As I go to my locker I hear someone yell something like, "she shot herself". Hmm. I just kept walking. I got to my Spanish class and everyone was just standing staring at a picture. I wondered over to the picture and didn't know who it was of. I still didn't know what was going on. Finally someone whispered that this sophmore had shot herself this morning. I was shocked. I mean even though I didn't know her, it is still tragic. I'm the kind of person that gets emotional if everyone around is (which everyone was...) My teacher came back and was just a wreck. I guess the girl is in her second hour. For the entire hour we just sort of sat and was silent.

That hour felt like it took forever. Finally it was time to leave. The girl I had to read too had an attiutde and was stubborn. She kept running away! lol Now I am home and am actaully realy cold seeing how its like 69 outside! lol

I am now an official paid employee of the Henry Ford! I can get anyone in for free! and get free food! I start on Saturday which is also my birthday. I am not sure if I am going to work on Easter or not. I'm still working that out.

Well I am excited for prom too! Its weird to think that it is only like 2 weeks away! After spring break it will be here! I still need shoes....lol


Ha I can play again!!!! It still hurts a tad bit but I'm a trooper and I can rest it even more during spring break. I have actually grown pretty attached to my sax. Too bad its not mine! I've decided that I am going to save my money and buy my own. SO IF YOU KNOW OF ANYONE SELLING ONE LET ME KNOW!!! Or what brands are good, I'm not up on the saxophone brands! lol

Looking for my Prince...

My Prom Dress!

Yes, I love my dress! I got my tickets and favors yesterday. Today I got my senior shirt. lol I guess they overlooked a sheet and forgot a bunch of people's names and selfish as it may sound, my name is on there and that's all I care about! lol j/k I paid 20 bucks for it, it better be right! I AM SO BORED! I have never wanted to practice this badly in my life! I think one of my stiches fell out today so hopefully by next week I will be able to play again! Especially since the only other sax player broke his arm! haha Now is my time to shine! lol He'll be casted for six weeks. evil smile......lol Well ok Spring break is rapidly approaching along with my FAVORITE holiday Easter! I'm probably the only person who would pick Easter over Christmas! lol ....and so is my 18th birthday which is the day before easter....in case you guys were wondering! lol :)

Yea my dog is the cutest! lol Shes alittle hairy in that picture but hey we all have bad hair days once in a while! lol

Man my mouth hurts! lol Swishing around salt water isn't fun either. I spent the night at Katie's last night. It was fun! lol We watched Hardball, which I hadn't seen before and it turned out to be a really good movie! lol And of course we watched mean girls! lol

I know what I'm getting my dad for Father's Day (thats a first! lol) I saw on tv today that coming out soon is a DVD set of all of Mel Brooks' movies! What a great idea! My dad and I love his movies! I think it also comes with a cd of different quotes from the movies! ha blazing saddles.....lol


I smell dinner so I think its almost ready! lol

Mini Cooper!!!

Hello all! Take goodness for the MEAPS, because everyone besides the juniors get like 6 half days in a row! lol heck yes! Well life is going good, I guess. Wisdom teeth out on Friday, I think when they tell me how long it will be until I can play again I might cry! lol I hope its not too long.

Mr. Hall's funeral was beautiful and emotional. I think the saddest part was looking over my shoulder and seeing Mr. D just bawling. But he lived a great life and will be deeply missed.

"And that......is what you call acting" RIP James Hall



Yay no 5th hour today! So my pom team took first in open and second in championship. Thats good because it is literally impossible to beat the Dazzlers. literally.

School is winding down slowly, soon spring break will be here and then prom. Senior shirts and our annoncements come in on Wednesday.

Whoa I just read the bottom of my screen and it says that it couldn't connect to blogger......so if this post doens't show up.........lol thats why.

Ohio......home of the hick town

So all weekend I will be in Defiance, Ohio......boring. Consists of two hotels, a high school, and a Ponderosa. lol So leave me nice emails/comments......or call and leave me nice messages there!!!


Too bad I won't be near Mechanicsburg......lol




Chicos, the tickets for Wicked go on sale soon!!!! Yay!!!

My daddie rocks!

Guess whose going to play contra with me?! My daddie! He is (because I'm making him...haha) joining the alumni band which we are playing one song with! He is either going to play Bb clarinet, bass or contra which he rocked out on in high school. He still has stars and stripes memorized, he plays the air clarinet! lol We could play next to each other!!! lol



EXCITING! lol yea im a dork.

What a horrible day

This has been a very bad day that just kept getting worse.

First I woke up and felt just awful, my stomach hurt and my thoat was sore. I just didn't want ot get out of bed. But I had to and felt like crap all day. I get to school and Mr. Dangerfield tells me that my drama teacher Mr. Hall died last night. This is not making my day any better. Even though I only had him for one yesr back in 10th grade, he was a great and brillant teacher who will be greatly missed. Then I went to drop off my paperwork at the Henry Ford. Forgot to get my work permit signed so I have to go back tomorrow. Augh!!!! Hopefully tomorrow will be better ;(

Job!!

Yay! I am now employed at Greenfield Village at the Taste of History (resturant). I get to work with Katie! =) I was going to be one of the people who dress in the century clothes but since I am going to Mackinac for a week, they couldn't hire me......but next summer they can! Thats something exciting to look forward to in teh future! I start on my birthday, ha. What a present! lol

Tomorrow I am going to call the oral surgeon and see if he can give me a guessiment (is that a word? lol) of long it will be until I would be able to play again after my teeth are taken out. Pray its not long!


Yay! I got my dance shoes yesterday! Thats what they look like! I can't wait to use them at the compeition!

NOO!!!!!

Golly, I was talking to my band director and was telling him that I'm getting my wisdom teeth pulled and that I might not be able to play for a couple of days. He said that when he got his out he couldn't play for 2-3 weeks!!!! NO!!! What am I supposed to do?! I can't go that long without playing especially since we got two awesome songs. (Bolero and Chester) GOSH!!!! That just ruined my day..... =(

They have a Mickey D's here?!

I guess Ronald can show up anywhere......

Golly March 31....don don don....I get my wisdom teeth pulled....or should I say cut out! lol Wish me luck and write me many emails since I probably won't be able to speak much...lol

I passed the MEAP!!!! lol And you thought Lincoln Park kids couldn't pass it, lol. Now I qualify for the 2,500 scholarship! ha It will probably be teh only one I get....I got my FAFSA thing back and it says I don't qualify for any finanical aide.....darn it all! lol

Getting my pictures printed off in like 20 minutes. I think its easier to scan pictures than to upload them from the camera (because a turtle is faster than my computer...) But I did put some on my picture page, so check it out! lol

Yay I got to play today! I haven't played for 2! weeks! Man I rocked out on the sax today! Alex said I could be in his jazz band lol I have never played 'jazz' but I am learning the sax at a pretty good rate, so I think I could give it a try...But I need a sax of my own......so if anyone wants to sell one or knows of someone looking to sell theirs.....let me know!!

"whats a tonsil?"...........omg my 5th hour is full of idiots......

Man, I have a rather large nose...lol Can you tell I only have one contact in? lol It fell out like the first day so I have only one contact in! lol

So yea in other great news, my wisdom teeth are growing in hortizontally....yes hortizontally. Crap. Now I have a TINY mouth(I know hard to believe), the dentist always has a hard time doing anything in mouth because its so tiny. So since I have no room for 4 new teeth, I need them out. So I guess I should get on that...lol

I came home wanting cold weather....and what do I come home to?? Its 69 degrees!!! wtf I don't need a coat. But rest assured its supposed to be 32 on Tuesday....lol

I'm going to upload my pictures soon, but not onto this because then it would take the computer like a hour to load this page so I'll do it on my picture page. That will be tonights project.

Bahamas

Right now I am in the Bahamas...nice surprise considerly I didn't know I was coming here. lol So my band got a straight 2 at festival. I know its still good but I know they could have pulled off a one. Oh well maybe next year. Yay for coming home tomorrow! Its nice to go away but now I want to see all of my friends. sunday I have a Dearborn youth symphony concert.....augh I hope I have my instrument...lol Yeaterday I had a 24 course italian dinner.....not as good as I would have liked..lol OMG I tried crab legs and lobster and its like the best thing that I have ever had! besides the nutella ice cream (which I am going to google to see what company makes it...lol) Well I am raking up quite a bill with the internet so I will post more when I get home around 4ish tomorrow.....



have a nice day!

excuse me, this was YOUR wedding?....oops

This is a picture of me crashing a wedding. I don't know the people in the background........


I do not know what I was thinking cutting my hair like that =( But its not like that anymore. Its all one length starting at the first layer. It just hits my chin.

Man I hope Northwest doens't go on strike! That could ruin everything!!!!

Two hour band tomorrow which adds up to 3 total. I could get used to that...lol Even though I don't get to play, I started a good book and that is just more time to read. I'm reading Memoirs of a Geisha. I wanted to see the movie (I have always been interested in that sorta of things...) but the book is great! I can barely put it down! Actually I read somewhere that John Williams did the soundtrack....yep just checked he did. So now I want to see the movie. I recommend it, its a great book! lol

We were playing Air for Band (most of you have more than likely heard it, i guess its pretty popular among bands...) and it made me sad that I have almost completely given up the clarinet. I mean I never had the greatest techniques, but I played with emotion and lived for songs that you could put your heart into. I had a pretty good tone but now I only play at marching band. But I guess I can pass that on to the alto. (You can't get too emotional with a beast like the contra.) Since I play such a big instrument its easy for me to get out all the low notes on the saxophone. I don't know a lot about saxes but I guess thats a good thing to be able to do.

I'm listening to the Anastasia Soundtrack. Man, I loved that movie. I only saw it once when it first came out but I remember walking out of the theather and thinking that she was really still out there. But I love the music on the soundtrack.

I LOVE this song...lol

We were strangers
Starting out on a journey
Never dreaming
What we'd have to go through
Now here we are
And I'm suddenly standing
At the beginning with you

No one told me
I was going to find you
Unexpected
What you did to my heart
When I lost hope
You were there to remind me
This is the start

Life is a road
And I want to keep going
Love is a river
I wanna keep flowing
Life is a road
Now and forever
Wonderful journey

I'll be there
When the world stops turning
I'll be there
When the storm is through
In the end I wanna be standing
At the beginning with you

We were strangers
On a crazy adventure
Never dreaming
How our dreams would come true
Now here we stand
Unafraid of the future
At the beginning with you

Life is a road
And I want to keep going
Love is a river
I wanna keep flowing
Life is a road
Now and forever
Wonderful journey

I'll be there
When the world stops turning
I'll be there
When the storm is through
In the end I wanna be standing
At the beginning with you

I knew there was somebody somewhere
Like me alone in the dark
Now I know my dream will live on
I've been waiting so long
Nothing's gonna tear us apart

Life is a road
And I want to keep going
Love is a river
I wanna keep flowing
Life is a road
Now and forever
Wonderful journey

I'll be there
When the world stops turning
I'll be there
When the storm is through
In the end I wanna be standing
At the beginning with you

Life is a road and I wanna keep going
Love is a river I wanna keep going on....
Starting out on a journey
Life is a road and I wanna going
Love is river I wanna keep flowing
In the end I wanna be standing
At the beginning with you.

Ha this is when I was bored at the Super Bowl. I wonder what I was thinking about at that moment...

Maybe sunscreen could have helped....

Yea, fifth grade rocks......so do huge glasses and braces, all the cool kids have them.

So todays plans include my LAST (thank god) cookie booth EVER! Do you know how horrible it is to stand outside in the cold trying to sell over priced cookies?! $3.50 for 10 cookies?! wtf. And what evil person makes a troop of 4 have a nine hour booth? Insane. Man, Girl Scouts rock........lol j/k


It feels like a Monday not a Sunday. But I don't have school tomorrow!! haha Our whole two day break, yes be jealous. Tomorrow's mission (if I choose to accept) is to scope out downriver and find some shoes for prom. I want to have everything before I go on the cruise. Wow time is flying! lol It was like September yesterday. I like how prom is like the day after Spring break.......yay for sunburns and dresses?! lol

Ok last post of the day.......i promise......

"He can't bribe the bank teller with cookies!"

I think I should post a random picture everytime I update! lol I hope this picture isn't blurred.

Well I went to the bank. Whoever took my wallet ate at McDonalds like 8 times! lol Ranging from Allen Park all the way to Brownstown. Well at least I get my money back. And I hope they get fat and die of burger poison. bitches.

Exactly one week til I'm in Florida!!!!! Technically excatly one week from now I would be at the airport in Florida. lol ha Two posts in one day......because I'm bored....lol

8:09 am

Last night I saw A Cinderella Story, the one with Hiliary Duff in it, and I cried through like the entire movie! lol It was a surprisely good movie. At first I only rented it because the dress she wears is the same dress that I'm wearing to prom. I wanted to see how it looked on her. I also saw 40 year old virign. It was funny, I guess, but not as funny as I thought it would be.

Today I'm going to Troy High S chool to see my sister and her winterguard perform. This will be the first time any of us gets to see her teams. Hopefully they do well. :( I don't get to play in band next week or in the concert. Silly cruise. I will be so bored . I guess I will just have to get caught up in pre-calc....goody. Well I'm off to the bank to tell them that I didn't spend all that money, but it was someone else who did.

=)

ha David said he'd go to prom with me! lol He's a hoot! He said he would be delighted to go. Hopefully it will be better than when I went to Homecoming with his brother! lol That night pretty much sucked. Wow I never thought in a million years, that I, Lisa would have a date to prom. I mean I just wanted to go with someone who I knew I would have fun with. Like my mom says, you don't have to be love to be dates, just good friends who want to have a good time. I've known david since like I popped out of the womb! lol well its way too cold to type and I have NO yes NO school tomorrow so I'm going to get like a gazillion hours of sleep!


OH AND I GOT AN 'A' ON MY PRE-CALC QUIZ!!!! I HAVE NEVER EVEN PASSED ONE BEFORE LET ALONE GET AN AN ON IT! LOL Heck yes I have a B in there!!! Take that!!!

ha we rock! Yay its Friday!!! Finally.......lol We have a fiesta in Spanish today, mmm quesdillas! Ok well I have to make this a short one....

Me stupid?! oh heck no!

omg My student teacher well she is our like student-student teacher, she just observes us. Well anyways at my school we do this thing called 'do nows' at the beginning of each hour to 'improve' our writing skills. Most classes give teh whole five minutes for it but in band we get like one minute because we need to get warmed up. So i only get to write like 1 or 2 sentences. Well yeserday's topic was to write about a current event. While everyone and their brother wrote about the Olympics, I wrote about Dick Cheney and his involuntary 'shooting.' I think I wrote that most hunters wear oranger so how could he mistake him for a quail? (which he didn't have a license to shoot anyways) Well my friends have indepedent study fourth hour and Ms. Atwater (the student-student teacher thingy) was reading my do now's and making comments about my topics and writing. She said I was stupid and what I write is stupid. I was upset that she would say these sort of things to another student. I mean I am a pretty good writer (29 on the writing part of my ACTs :) ) For her to say something like that to a student no less. I mean I know teachers like to kid about their students to EACH OTHER. Not to other students.

Anyways.......our band was learning about Eric Whitacre and I let my director listen to our version of October. I think he was impressed (who isn't? lol)



"omg if he sits on my purse the trigger will go off and he'll shoot himself in the butt!" lol good times at lunch.

Henry Ford band tonight....oh goody.

2 weeks til my crusie and I get to go to sunny Florida!!!! Yay!!!

Your ideal Valentine's Day date: a romantic dinner your sweetie cooks for you Your flirting style: friendly and sweet What turns you off: cynics who don't believe in romance Why you're hot: you always keep the romance alive

What Does Your Candy Heart Say?

thought this was cute.

I went shopping hard core today! lol I started at 11 am and just got home and its like almost 11 pm! lol But at least I got some sunglasses, I really needed a new pair. Someone sat on my sweet pink ones! :( But if you have a small face with chunky cheeks, its hard to find sunglasses to fit your face. Me and my mom had this long conversation about college today. It seems weird to think that this is my last semester of high school. I think that I am going to march at MSU. I have been giving it a lot of thought and think it I would really enjoy it. I think its weird to hear people who marched all four years and they say they didn't like it. Then why did they do it? I mean I love marching band. And how exciting will it be to do it at a college level with thousands of screaming fans?! oh I can't wait! A bonus is that since we have band camp before, we all get to move into our dorms two weeks earlier than the rest of the campus. So that will be cool.

Wow this year is flying.... 3 weeks til my LAST pre-festval concert (which I can't play in :( ) 4 weeks til my LAST festival (which is also the same week as my cruise...) like 80 something days til spring break, My 18th birthday is coming up.......(april 15, in case anyone was wondering...lol) then prom a week after, aww and then graduation the first week of june!

Mark your calendars for June 9th! Its my graduation party and everyone's invited!!! Its at my house from 4-?? My sister's party was fun so hopefully mine will be too! PLUS I am getting a chocolate fountain so people can dip food into the chocolate! mmmm......I <3 chocolate!


ok I'm tired.....long day, church bright and early tomorrow.

how the heck are ya? lol

::listening to Josh Groban:: Man, that man could sing to me any day.....lol Theres something about a guy who sings......I think it adds character. I want my chorus teacher to let us do 'seasons of love', I hear that first hour got to do it......I am proud of myself, I can hit that high note in the solo part. Heck yes I had been working on it for months! lol But its weird, I can hit extremely high notes but can barley get out a low alto part. Like between middle C and Eish, its almost too low for me. lol So Blue Lake asked if I wanted to be the chairperson for a German band. I talked to my director and he thought it was a nice idea, but it would involve taking a lot of risks. You know, in case we put a student in a house and they get raped or something. He doesn't trust my city or downriver in general. I understand all that could go wrong but I am willing to take those risks. I think it would be a great opportunity for my city. People in my city aren't cultured or never get to experience life changing things like this. (oops I used a double negative...lol) I guess I just want them to feel what I felt in Germany. I loved it over there and the hospitaliy (sp?) of the people who took us in. (Except for Denmark...lol) Plus the band is from Ahrensburg, which is one of the cities we visted. So that is cool. But I'm willing to ask other surrounding cities to help as well. I know lots of people in cities like Allen Park, Southgate, Taylor and maybe even Grosse Pointe. And I know people from Northern Winds that live near would be willing to help as well. Anarosa lives in Detroit which is only like ten minutes away. Oh well I just hope they don't say no......

So my sister called and told me that the secectary (sp?) at my dance studio died...but I am still not sure how or when....I mean she wasn't awfully old or sick so this is very unusal and sudden. But she did smoke like no other. That probably had a lot to do with it.

hello, again! I dont have too much time to write because I have a mackinac meeting in like 20minutes. (I go to mackinac island for a week and volunteer up there.its a girl scout thing, you understand...) OMG drunk people are fun to talk to. I worked the Winter Blast (you know SuperBowl) and the people that we ran into were pretty funny. I have never seen so many people in downtown Detroit. I LOVE detroit. I love giving tours of downtown d-town to out-of-towners! lol Or people who live here and have never even been there. Then there was Barbara at Rams Horn at like 10:30 last night....but that is def. an audio moment! I wouldn't be able to do her justice by just typing! lol


so look for it later! lol

Awww the second full day of the new semester. Concert band is how you say.....not so smart.....lol I don't understand chorus. I mean we sit where ever we want. The sopranos aren't separated from the altos, how do they hear their notes? I guess having been singing in a choir since like 1st grade, I just thought that that was how choirs were supposed to be. Everyone sits like on opposites sides of this huge choir room, so you can't even hear the other people. Oh and the only person I know in the class got transferred out. Well maybe it will be fun being the only person who actually takes the class seriously. I told him we should sing the lord bless you and let there be peace on earth! heck yes that would be cool. well I have to go now to the henry ford community band thingy.......i haven't quite figured out what it is yet.......

my LAST semester of high school!

Here it is, my last semester of high school, it starts Monday!

Spanish 3--Sra. LaRosa (Gag me now)
Concert Band--Mr. Dangerfield ( this should be fun playing with the lower kids and freshmen)
Pre-Calc--Mrs. Kowalski (God save me!)
Chorus--Mr. Magill--(should be fun I hope, hear they don't have a lot of sopranos, well most kids take it as a blow off class, but I really want to sing and get better at it. )
Adv. Biology--Mr. Lumley (EASIEST class in the world! We had a 10 question final and we don't have any work.......great senior class......lol)
Symphonic Band--Mr. Dangerfield (same old same old, been in this class since like 10th grade and it doesn't change much...lol)


Ok so thats it! Solo and Essemble (I always spell that wrong...lol) is tomorrow. I go at 11:51. I am actually not nervous. I don't want to get myself excited but my director said I have a shot at getting a I. And I and me have never ever been in the same sentence before. But I worked really hard and I want it soo bad to prove to everyone who thought I couldn't do it. I mean I just picked up teh saxophone two months ago. I know it is a really instrument to play but some of the fingerings are brutal. But they have like 7,000 alternate fingerings.




Going to go buy a bathing suit for the cruise!!Its really funny, I'm like the only person in the stores buying shorts in January....lol Maybe an audio later or tomorrow.........

YAY!

I just talked to my mom and she said.........................I can get the dress! I might even get it tonight!!!!! Otherwise I will have to oreder it and it'll come in like 6 weeks! yay!!

You like?!

i LOVE this dress. I hope my mommie lets me get it! Do you guys like it????? I would feel like a princess at my prom in this dress!!!!! OOO I want it soo bad!!

...end of the cardmarking blues...

I hate the last week of the cardmarking! It's soo stressful making sure all of your assignments are in and up to date. Actually the semester ends and next week are........FINALS! I have like 4 projects all due next week. I finihsed two of them (me actaully not procrasinating? a first...) Since its ol'MLK Day I didn't have rehearsal. Good because my lips hurt real bad. The honors band weekend was fun, I guess. I actaully wasn't too impressed with the band. Nobody watched or paid attention at all. I loved the directors though. Too bad I'm going to MSU.


Some quotes from the weekend (with some side notes to help you understand them...) lol

"You didn't check the peep-hole? You coulda got stabbed in the face!!"
(My friend Heather politely informed us of the reason hotel doors have peep holes, lol)

"Someone broke the door and stole the pizza!"
(Well this one is for me....ok so I didn't have a key to the room, but for some reason I got the door open. We had pizza the night before and still had like two pizzas left. We assumed that teh maids would leave them. No they stole them. So I run (yes run) the front desk and tell them that someone broke into our room and stole the pizza.)

"I broke the door!" "You broke the door?"
(Everyone thought I broke the door. I was like yelling I didnt break the door! lol)

"This is what I look like when I have to pee." *Same facial expression*
(Professor Waymire doesn't change facial expressions....ever)

"At least you don't suck. This is as nice as I get."
(The bass clarinet player said this to me as she sat down...)

Something about the Super Bowl, faxing dirty pictures, and "Put your trousers on."
(Lordy, just call me so I can tell you about this....cos my audio blogger doesn't work... :( )

"I hate it when my friends don't invite me to their weddings!"
(well no one does...lol)
"And then she lit the curtain on fire." "This one kid tried to burn down our school."
(Lots of schools seem to burn down...lol actually my sister did accidently light the curtain on fire..)
"These kids were doing doughnuts in the parking lot with a girl standing on the hood and they slammed on the breaks and she went flying off and broke her face. Since she did it on school grounds, if she comes out of the coma, she's suspended."
(this just happened at my school like last tuesday)
"She had a bag lunch, 2 weight watchers dinners, and a box of hostess cupcakes everyday for lunch. She's on the 3rd floor and we were afraid she'd fall through."
(A teacher at Heather's school)
"Underneath his pillow I put a pair of like size 32 panties, a condom, and a note that said 'Dear Cory, I hope we can use these later. Love, Sara.' He almost killed me when he found out I did it."
(some prank that Laura pulled on her friend Cory at band camp)


oh and my little sister got an i-pod nano for no apparent reason......how did this happen?!

Superbowl?!

So tonight's my Superbowl employee training thingy. Well not as much employee as much as volunteers. We don't get paid but we do get a free hat and Columbian jacket, so I guess thats ok. It would be cool if it said Staff on it! Then I could sell it on Ebay! lol Wanna buy it?!

We have a new or a student teacher in band. He plays flute adn goes or is from Eastern Michigan University. Lee Kraft is his name. I think he might come up to EMU to see me in my honors band concert. Which is this weekend and I still don't have music....lol

well I have to go now ill write later, PROMISE! lol

Wedding bells

So this is how my evening went. The ceremony was nice. The bridesmaid dress was alittle too small for her bossom... Kate's dress was pretty and Rob looked nice in his tux. Aww Rob kept crying and was soo nervous. To me thats how you can tell if the groom really loves his bride, if he cries at any point in the wedding. Rob must be really in love! lol The food was well odd. I ordered chicken because I figure, who can ruin chicken? The Dearborn Inn......It was stuffed chicken and it was stuffed with get this....goat cheese, sun-dried tomatoes (I loathe tomatoes), and spinach. Ewww.........I didn't eat it.....So dessert came and it looked like a ball of chocolate covered ice cream.......wrong again.....It was cheesecake. I don't like cheesecake. But I ate half of it just because I was hungry. I was like, man the cake better be great. It was raspberry cake........I hate raspberries.........The only good part was the favors, m&m filled champaign bottles. I ate that! lol

Oh my I crashed a wedding.....well the bathrooms were on a different floor. When we got down there their was another wedding going on. We ate some of their food and got something to drink. I took pictures! We are such wedding crashers! lol

Well I'm hungry and I think I'll eat some candy......

o and I hate my hair.......I can't get it to do anythign and now it looks like crap....good thing my hair grows fast! In like two weeks it'll be back to how it was before....

Life

Lately or just during break, I have been thinking a lot about life and my future. When I was in elementary school, me and my best friend, planned out our whole future. We were going to be in the same hall (not same room) at MSU, she a vet and me whatever I fianlly decided on. She with a blue VW beetle and me with a green one.
Now I'm going to MSU by myself and will probably end up in a history major. She is attending CMU and rooming with another girl from our school. I hate to say it but we don't seem to talk much anymore, she hangs with her newly aquired friends. And I'm still here. I guess I'm just afraid of not having anyone caring about me or supporting me. I mean I was never really social until about this year and have many acquaintances (sp?) but I always felt like I only had one true friend. And now shes fading away from me.
Going to Europe changed my life. I met people there that I hope to stay in contact with for the rest of my life. Even though most (ok all) live far away I know that they still care about me and are willing to do anything for me. I have never had friends like that before. So I figure who needs the people at school, I know I have real friends all over this world. Its just the little things that get to you. Like changing your hair and the only people who notice are people who you just met a couple of months ago who only saw your hair up for 99% of the time. But the people who you see everyday don't notice....

Wow when I sat down to write this I had a whole another topic to write about...funny how these things evolve into other things.

When I graduate and become a famous something (hey I can't predict the future! lol) The people who thought I was nothing more tha a joke will be sorry.....lol



Thank you

Finally

It's snowing..............I think it has rained for the last week straight. All the snow was gone it looked like spring except with no sun..... So hurray for snow! :)

hairy situation

Yay I love getting haircuts!!! I just hope I can blow it out like the lady did. My face looks funny because the camera wasn't working so I didn't think it would take it, lol. Not much happening today........oo my mommie is taking me prom dress shopping soon!!! I want to look and feel like a princess!! I have been waiting to go for 4 years. (We only have a senior prom) I shouldn't have told my mom about that stupid Spanish project because every five minutes shes like, when are you going to start it? Sunday night?! I'm like listen its not due til the 16th. I have time! I am the BIGGEST procrasinator EVER! But you would never know it because I can get teh projects done and they look just as good as the people who spend like 8 years on theirs.


So yea.......anyone wanna do anything before break ends?! cos I'm soooo bored.........

So I might have to miss festival........my band director is going to kill me! lol But that is the only week our family has free to take a vacation that we have been trying to take for like 4 years! Well he might not care about me but my sister is the only french horn player in symphonic band..........oops! well I really want to go the caribean.......lol I was going to write more but now I'm tired but I updated what I was going to write in my journal........
