Ok so I suck at math. I get it. So Tuesdays and Thursdays we have our TA, who I enjoy. But today our teacher decided to watch him and pretty much interrupt him every 2 seconds to explain what he was doing wrong. Poor Yuhei. Then we got our tests back, I knew I bombed it, so I wasn't surprised. But at the bottom of my paper the teacher wrote "Do you even come to class on a regular basis??" OMG I have gone to every single one of her gay classes!!! If she looked at her attendance sheets once in a while she would see that I have never been absent. Hell, I haven't been absent since like 4th grade!!!! She also wrote that she wanted to see me. I am about to just tell her what is on my mind. I am sooo mad, she makes me wanna kill myself. This is my last math class EVER and I all I care about is passing it. Heaven forbid I fail one out of 5! tests. I didn't fail the first one so why cry about this one. EERRRRRRRR I hate her! I hate her! I hate her mustache as well. She yelled at us for taking notes. FOR TAKING NOTES! She said we should have already learned that in her lectures. Well sorry I like to write things down more than once, THATS HOW NORMAL PEOPLE STUDY, YOU IDIOT! I hate her accent. I hate her shoes. I hate her, I hate her. She made me soo mad I cried for 2 hours today when I got back from class. I don't want to go to her stupid lectures tomorrow or ever. Augh.
Thanks for reading my rant, any pep talks are welcome.

Home sweet boring Home
So I'm at home and am quite bored. Nothing to do. Just like when I lived here. That is why I need a kickin' summer job to get me out of this house! I started packing a little.....I'm quite confused as to where my bathing suit is, though. I think it disappeared.....Got the CUTEST little pink tennis shoes yesterday that will never feel the wrath of snow! Oh and I came home and what was on the counter?? My girl scout cookies! Oh happy day! Two boxes of Samoas all to myself! I also bought 'A Walk to Remember' just because I had a gift card and I love that movie. I guess the new Best Buy that replaced the food court isn't all bad, its quite big and feels open. I like it. Took my cousin Phil out to dinner yesterday for his birthday, he got into Ferris, woot go him! Well I think my nose is bleeding so I guess I should go fix that. lol hahaha

Stole from Grant
"Ahh. Here we see a herd of band geeks in their natural habitat: the band field (commonly mis-labeled as the football field). One should never make this mistake within earshot of the band geek. Band geeks and football players are natural enemies, thus competition for territory is fierce. Several sightings have been reported of Band geek herds numbering well into the hundreds and two hundreds. While Football players usually travel in smaller groups, they feel superior to the Band Geeks but tend to keep to themselves.
The band geek is a complex and fascinating creature, capable of moving at high speeds in unison to form complex and intricate shapes on the fields, as well as producing amazing musical sounds. Herds of band geeks will frequently gather on weekends to put on these displays, coming from all over the area to participate and often waiting hours at a time for their turn. Band geeks are best viewed during the fall season when they gather with their individual herds to practice for the regional gathering of the herds. Band geeks have been known to migrate huge distances simply to attend these gatherings, known as “tournaments” to the band geek.
Though the herds of band geeks move as a single unit, the herd is actually made up of numerous subspecies of band geek. There are four main classifications of band geek, each with its respective subspecies. The classifications are: Percussion, Brass, Woodwind and Pageantry, often called Color Guard.
The band geek herd is led by one to two Alpha band geeks, typically known as “drum majors.” The Drum Major may come from any known subspecies. Unlike other animals, the status of the Drum Major is not determined by popularity, talent, or strength, but rather the odd ability to wave their arms around for long periods of time. This is their main function and they labor under the delusion that other members of the herd are watching them. Although these customs are strange, they should never be questioned.
The Percussion band geek falls into one of two subspecies: the Drum Line, made up of bass drums, tenor drums, snares drums, and sometimes cymbals, and the Pit, so named because that is the place most of the band would like to push them into. There are major differences between these two subspecies. The Drum Line takes part in forming the musical and visual displays with the rest of the herd on the band field. They are the beat of the band --often keeping tempo when the herd is practicing. The pit, however, is stationary. They stay within a pack-rat like nest of instruments, most commonly found just in front of the Drum Major. The Pit is a nomadic group, packing and repacking their equipment frequently—often leaving behind traces where they once where.
Next we have the Brass classification, consisting of the Trumpet, Alto Horn, Trombone, Baritone, and Tuba subspecies. The Brass is predominantly male, with the exception of the Alto Horns. The Trumpets are the highest voice, often the largest of the brass subspecies and quite frequently the most annoying. They spend most of their time competing with one another to see who can play the loudest, highest, and sometimes ugliest note. Dynamic markings mean nothing to them—they play only loud or ear shattering. The Alto Horns have a slightly lower voice and are easier to tolerate than the Trumpet. They like to confuse other members of the herd by calling themselves Mellophones, or Marching French Horns. The Trombones, by contrast, are nearly as annoying as the Trumpets, but their instrument also doubles as a weapon--so be wary of provoking them. Unlike other species of brass, the Trombone has no valves. The typical Trombone spends most of its time swapping dirty jokes with the Baritones or fellow Trombones. The Baritones like to refer to themselves as Euphoniums. No one quite knows why. They like to talk to the Trombones without actually having to be one of them. Do not trust the Baritones. They spend their time plotting the downfall of other sections so that they can take over their solos. The tubas are the lowest voice and calmest of all the brass subspecies. Carrying such a large instrument will take the fight out of almost anyone. It is the dearest wish of many to destroy the woodwind section, particularly the flutes, for complaining about how heavy their tiny instruments are. Overall, the brass section is responsible for most of the sound and mayhem within the herd. One can usually identify one of these subspecies by the angle of their horns, tending to be facing any direction except forward. Also, these species seem to be more physically gifted than that of the woodwinds.
The woodwinds are natural enemies of the brass, despite being in the same herd. The woodwinds are typically smaller, calmer, and more maneuverable on the band field than the brass, yet typically cannot be heard due to the overwhelming sound of the brass. The brass does everything in their power to drown out the sound of the woodwinds. Subspecies of the woodwind include the saxophone, clarinet, and flute. Saxophones are brass wannabe’s. Their instrument is made of metal, and yet they are still classified as a woodwind. The sounds saxophones make vary in tone and pitch—sporadic high squealing can be herd, often mistaken for a piccolo mating cry. The lower saxophones even go so far as to stick close to the tubas during the musical displays, despite the best efforts of the tubas to avoid them. The clarinets are more tolerable than the saxophones. They tend to keep to themselves and attract relatively little animosity from other members of the herd. Many clarinets like to pretend they are really in the Color Guard classification and spin their instruments in their hands, much to the annoyance of other members of the herd. Keeping to themselves so much, clarinets are widely considered to be the least sane species of band geek. Finally, there are the flutes, the most enigmatic subspecies in the herd. They are made of metal, like the saxophones yet do not even have a wooden reed to give them claim to being a woodwind. However, due to the frequent loathing harbored by the tubas, the brass refuses to accept them as part of their group. The flutes are almost exclusively female and generally disliked by every other subspecies of band geek. The flute resembles a piece of plumbing and sounds like a dog whistle. They are typically clueless as to the hostility of other members of the herd and consider themselves to be the pinnacle of musical talent.
Lastly, we have the Pageantry/Color Guard. Like the flutes, they are almost exclusively female, though males have been known to exist. Unlike the rest of the herd, they produce no sound through the use of an instrument—although they are far from silent. The Pageantry typically consists of Sabres, Rifles, and Flags. Sabres spin fake sword-like objects and rifles spin large, fake guns. Why they find this entertaining is a mystery to the rest of the band geek herd. The flags spin and throw colorful banners as part of a display understood only by other Pageantry members. The woodwinds, percussion, and brass do not consider them to be true members of the herd because they produce no sound, but let them think they are in the herd. CAUTION: Members of these subspecies are extremely territorial and have been known to inflict bodily harm upon others. Encroachment could lead to injury, and possibly death.
The behavior of the band geek varies depending on the age of the individual. The youngest is known as the Freshman. Freshmen consider themselves to be the experts of the herd and have no problem telling others this. Freshmen are frequently the targets of a ritual known as “trash-canning,” performed whenever the upperclassmen are bored. The next age is the Sophomore, typically made up of those who managed to live through their Freshman year. Slightly more mature than the freshmen, they have finally learned that they are not the smartest members of the herd, yet continue to act that way. Next are the juniors. They try to hang around the seniors, act as immature as the sophomores, and are responsible for most of the pranks committed within the herd. Lastly are the seniors, the oldest members of the herd. Seniors know everything about band. Never question this. Seniors spend a majority of their time keeping the Freshmen in line and reminiscing about past field shows, usually finishing by saying the Freshmen aren’t nearly as good as they were—and definitely not as tall. Note: Seniors feel passionately about their past performances--imitations of these songs by underclassmen are to be done at their own risk.
The language of the band geek is unlike any other. While some of it resembles English, some words are known only to the band geek, such as Sectionals, Tempo, Horn flash, and Drill Charts. Conversely, some words in English are completely unknown to the band geek, words like Free Time, Individuality, and Lives. A majority of communication, however, is non-verbal and comes in the form of music produced by the instruments of the band geeks, or series of hand gestures.
In conclusion, the band geek is a fascinating individual worthy of further study, particularly for its complex social structure within the herd and its ability to produce intricate and well practiced musical and visual displays.

Saturday
Ok so just kidding about the chiar auditions, well I mean we had them but I guess I didn't rock as much as I thought. I mean I'm not at the bottom I beat like 4 people. With a section of about 14ish I think I'm like 9th or 10th chair. Well better than being last. lol I mean theres only two parts anyways. My mom sent me a huge box of hot chocolate!! :) I think I will buy my own bottle of whipped cream. lol This semester is stressful and its only the second week. I can feel that this might kill me. At least my Spring break plans are falling nicely into place. My Uncle Glen was delighted that we wanted to come visit. Now we just need to call Uncle Tom and Aunt Ann. No Las Vegas though, just not enough time. Oh well. With MLK Day it feels like I haven't been to my Monday classes in ages. There one class that is only on Mondays and I don't even remember it. OMG Photoshop is like a whole new world. I mean I could follow during the lesson but when we got time to just play around with it, I couldn't remember the first step. lol I have to make a collage with at least 5 layers that describes me so if anyone has any ideas or pictures send them my way. I have like 5 weeks to do it so I'm not rushed. The only draw-back is that I don't have it on my computer so I have to go all the way to the Comm. Arts building to use the computer lab. Maybe I should invest in it...Ok I really need to do laundry, all of my jeans have salt on them. :( Winterguard compeition this evening.....My parents might come!!!! :) They are going to the Auto Show today. poo on them!

H-U-N-G-R-Y
So I busted my lip today in racquetball. Got popped right in the mouth, but I am getting better and have a new racquet. It's pink. :) So its cold. Quite cold. Like 10 degrees cold. This weekend was fun. We went to the mall a couple of times and Bubble Island. lol They have good chicken there. Had Pizza House on Sunday which was wonderful, even though I love their burgers their pizza was good too. Chair auditions tonight. Oh goody. lol
Saturday, January 13, 2007
Augh I've been slacking
First Saturday of the Spring Semester. I never thought I would make it to the weekend. Its like half raining and half snowing, so the perfect thing to do is to go shopping! lol Indoors of course!I saw 'Man of the Year' yesterday, it could have been funnier. MSU got the Food Network! Yea! I love cooking shows. I would make any man fat! lol Just look at my Dad, my family likes to cook and eat! I really have a craving for Olive Garden. I haven't been there in ages! lol On Sunday we are going to a Lutheran church, should be fun. We just have to find the bus that takes us there. If we don't like that church we'll find another and keep going until we find one. lol

My poor city
Coming home from school and seeing the city I grew up in just falling apart is depressing. This city is depressing. Empty buildings, people getting robbed in broad daylight and the high unemployment rate. the city is losing money fast, real fast. To the point that if things don't start shaping up, we could have to merge with Detroit and not even be our own city anymore. Businesses come and go so quickly and no good businesses want to come here. If another CVS comes I will scream. Yet our city manager gets paid millions of dollars, yet when the city hall was robbed this morning he didn't even bother coming down to see what happened. Sweet, not. Augh we should have moved to Wyandotte when we had the chance....

I saw Dreamgirls, I liked it a lot. Well I like the Supremes and always have. I would recommend it to anyone who wants a good movie, it was a musical which was a bonus! Yay! Katie and I are going to play Guitar Hero and DDR for New Years. lol I can't wait until everything starts to fall into place with my life and school. I'm sure I made the right decision. But my family doesn't understand and they probably won't until I start doing stuff. All they talk about is money, what jobs pay higher and such. Those kinds of things don't matter to me. I just want to be happy. You don't know where life may take you, you never know I could be the one that ends up on top. I really want to travel before I get all settled down with my life. Maybe after college. Well the new year will be upon us shortly and I can start my new year fresh and how I want it to be.

Googling people is fun
lol This is what happens when I get bored...I found the entire Leinart family history online and finally can prove the age old question, am I related to Matt Leinart???? I can now say, yes I am. We both come from a man named Jacob and its the same guy. I am having pizza with my FAVORITE people tomorrow!!! Tom and Mary called and are going to be in town tomorrow. I am like their princess, like even though they have one daughter, they have our pictures at their house too. Like we are their children. Ok well let me explain a tad. lol Tom was our old pastor and the parsonage is around the block from me so we get to know the pastors pretty well. My mom and Mary were like best friends. I was about 1 or 2 and Mary would call and ask if she could come over and babysit me. Even if my mom was still there. She loved taking care of me. Now Tom is the District Supt. and lives in Ann Arbor (boo) or maybe he lives in Lake Orion and commutes, not sure. All I know is I love them and they are coming tomorrow. :)
My uncle said I should watch Failure to Launch, so I guess I should go rent it. lol I got my Dad the MASH movie and he wants me to watch it with him, so I guess I shall. lol But let me tell you, Talladega Nights is FUNNY! I seriously almost peed myself I was laughing so hard, its the kind of laughing that you miss some of the movie because your eyes are watering from laughing. Well and because my eyes were being awfully weird and kept watering up. I couldn't see. But I took out my contacts and they have been fine so I'll put them back in tomorrow. Wore my new pearl earrings today from China, I like them I think I will wear them a lot. lol I also got a jade necklace from China but I need a gold chain to put it on. I have a silver one but it doesn't match. lol

My My My
Well the Christmas season is over for another year. It was a whirlwind of a season I might add.
You know I was thinking today, and then I watched my old figure skating tapes and came to a conclusion. I probably was or are a pretty good skater, its just that I had no confidence and I didn't talk. If I was like I am now I probably would still be skating. I think my New Year's resolution will to be to get back into ice skating, even if I go at it alone. I couldn't have lost too much in 3 years. I have always wanted to do pairs skating......it looks like fun! :) Now I just need a man that can lift me. lol
Best Quote of christmas 2006........drum roll please............and the Winner is:
(First of all, my cousin is a rock hard feminist...)
(My Grandpa) "Women's suffrage was the worst thing to happen to America!" (saying this to my cousin)
Congrats Grandpa!

Maybe I will go back to work.....hmm....Would you all come visit me? lol We should all go because I can get people in for free! :]
Well my overall GPA was like a 3.02, not as high as I would like it but not extremely bad. It was my stupid history class that brought it down. I should have dropped it sooner. Next semester I have like 3 REALLY easy classes and 2 real classes so it should be all good and just shoot up! lol
Wow its really downpouring outside, brr. Crap I still need to get like one more present, but I don't want to go out in the rain. lol I hope Santa has an umbrella! lol
Oh at church they want me, John, Katie, and Laura to sing some song accapella. They told us yesterday and they want it for Sunday. Yea, and none of us have ever heard the song before. Great. Oh chime practice.....it was interesting. I'm going to tape it, I have like 6 chimes. "Where's the Bb???" "Oh my other hand...." haha.
Maybe I will go back to work.....hmm....Would you all come visit me? lol We should all go because I can get people in for free! :]
Well my overall GPA was like a 3.02, not as high as I would like it but not extremely bad. It was my stupid history class that brought it down. I should have dropped it sooner. Next semester I have like 3 REALLY easy classes and 2 real classes so it should be all good and just shoot up! lol
Wow its really downpouring outside, brr. Crap I still need to get like one more present, but I don't want to go out in the rain. lol I hope Santa has an umbrella! lol
Oh at church they want me, John, Katie, and Laura to sing some song accapella. They told us yesterday and they want it for Sunday. Yea, and none of us have ever heard the song before. Great. Oh chime practice.....it was interesting. I'm going to tape it, I have like 6 chimes. "Where's the Bb???" "Oh my other hand...." haha.

Hate for Myspace?
Got my hair cut today, I like it. It's better than the last time I got layers.....I shiver just thinking about it. ha. You know what eats me? Getting stupid messages from people I don't know. I mean, I think its rude and downright weird. I know why people get raped and killed and stuff on sites like these because they reply to messages like these:
"Im sorry but i Just had to tell you that your smile is adorable...your laugh must be even cuter. Are you ticklish?"--from some kid named 'Daniel'
AND this one is even worse...
"hi, name's Mo, i'm 23 m dearborn and i'm a med student. I'll be straight up with you. I have no gf but looking for some fun. Since i'm too busy with school to enjoy life, that doesn't leave me a lot of options. I'm looking for someone who likes to have "fun" from time to time without all that drama because again, i have no time for it (drama i mean). I think your very cute and sexy looking. I have pics (that i dont like posting on here), aim, and yahoo IM if u wanna chat first and i could also send u the pics through there. Let me know what u think and hope to hear back from u."--'Moe' WTF?!
I mean, how horrible is this? I don't want to delete it AGAIN because I like to keep up on people's lives and get in touch with people that I have lost touch with. But this is why little girls are getting kidnapped, I mean I'm smart enough to just delete them and ignore them. But there are some people who aren't, and those are the ones that you read about in the papers.
and thus ends my Myspace and internet predators rant. Thanks for reading.

I know, right?
LOL LOL I think I killed Christmas! I was standing next to our tree taking a picture and all of a sudden it turned off! I was like ok...So I go over to the plug and it is hott with 2 t's! The socket was hot as well. The plug, after I unplugged it, smelled like melting plastic. I was like, oh I killed our beautiful tree. Golly gee. lol My dog wasn't helping either, she kept trying to sniff and lick the socket. Yes and in case you were wondering or keeping count, my life is, how you say, not so boring? :)
So I was watching the weekly council meeting as of about 10 minutes ago and it scanned the different council members and one in pericular stood out. Why it was Mr. Vaslo, our favorite little member, he was reading a GOLF magazine during the meeting. How sweet, I mean our library, Senior Center, Community Center, and other buildings are being shut down, but no its more important to read on new ways to aim your swing. Yea thanks, thanks a lot. I'll be sure to vote for you again. Idiot.

Yay for Advent!!!
Yea that would be Kenny G, no one ever gives him any loving so I figured why not? :)
Going carolling to shut-ins soon and then we invited the neighborhood to come sing with us afterwards with free pizza. ha. Advent is like the best time of year. I love Christmas music and we are getting the old chimes out and doing our traditional (which we haven't done in like 4 years) Carol of the Bells. I have an advent calendar on my computer.......well let's look at today's verse....Dec. 17th, Mark 1:3 "Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for him."
