Facebook is down?!? Whatever will I do with my spare time :O
Halloween was fun. I went as a Laura Croft, and David went as a Collins hippie. I gave him one of those hats with dreadlocks. His costume was hilarious. He got an old white t-shirt and Artemis and I wrote "Veggie Power" on it and drew a bunch of vegetables smiling and holding hands. Under neath that, we wrote "Death to Capitalism!" with smily faces, and on the back "Just Say No! (to meat)" with a picture of a cartoon cow being slaughtered. First we went to the dance at Collins...that was pretty fun. It's always interesting to see people you know completely trashed. We went to one of David's friends houses for a party....Stacy came! Her dress was gorgeous. She went as Belle and made her dress from scratch and it looked better than anything I've seen at a costume shop. It was fun.
This has been a fun and interesting weekend. I feel happy. Now back to school work I've been putting off.... |

...what a day. I took my Business test in Accounting and out of 33 mulitple choice questions, there were 4 that I had no idea what I was doing.
Later, I got an emergency phone call from David. He has taken a couple Sudafed pills earlier in the day for a cold he has...no big deal. But he also drank a Jolt energy drink without thinking about how mixing amphetimines with caffeine is not a good idea. He said his heart was racing and he felt really weird and walked right out of class. I told him to call an ambulance if his heart started beating irregularly and told me I;d meet him ASAP. When I got there, the ambulance pulled around the corner. Thankfully, he didn't have to go to the hospital, and I walked him back to his apartment and stayed with him until I had to go to French. That was a close call...I literally ran through the Union to find him. I mean, I knew he wasn't going to die or anything and he'd probably be alright, but when someone you really care about is in trouble, that 0.1% chance that something could go really wrong suddenly seems very significant.
I called ths guy who's a producer in town/lawyer and he wants me to send him my schedule so he can see my availability. It sounds like he's gong to hire me...I really really hope so. My first position in the field I love! |

| Is the Clothes that Make a Person... |

Or the person who makes the clothes.
Have you ever bought something that you thought was totally badass and showed it off to your friends and asked for their opinion...and they told you they though whatever you bought was ugly?
That just happened to me.
It's been a tough few past weeks...not even anything to do with school...but just friends, parents, and for a little bit, David (but that turned out for the best and we got it resolved).
Communication really is the key to having successful relationships. I think I've come a long way in understanding that.
I SAW JAMES BROWN LAST TUESDAY!!!!!
It was so awesome...I was out of my chair dancing and singing along pretty much the entire time. I thought it was kind of weird the audience was mostly white- you could tell because everyone sat in their seats as stiff as a board. At one point in the concert, James Brown even told everyone to stand up and clap and swing to the beat. Yeah...the Godfather of Soul had to tell people to get up and dance to his music. Shameful.
I had so much fun. I went with David (I bought tickets about a month in advance to surprise him. He had a lot of fun.) After wards, we went to Domo and ate a crapload of delicious Sushi.
The only downer was that there were these guys sitting behind us diagonally who kept yelling at us to sit down. We weren't even in front of them! David and I were pretty much standing the whole time (how often do you get to see James Brown?). We were enjoying ourselves- and these assholes kept yelling at us to sit down.
What's funny is that I didn't even hear them. David told me about it after the concert. I think I'm getting better at filtering out things like that and just being in the moment. Or maybe I'm partially deaf...
I really want to do study abroad or semester at sea. Semester at Sea is where you live on a ship for a long time and go to about 12 countries. The one con is that you only get to spend a few days in each country, but I've never even been to a foreghn country before or travelled abroad and I want to make up for lost time. Plus everyone who's done it says it's a blast.
For study abroad, I want to go to London or Paris. If I want to do film, London's probably my best choice. I'd only get to visit one other foregn country, but it would be for a while and I can really get a sense of the culture.
I want shopping today and bought a couple things that are a bit out of character for me. I've decided that I need to have at least some effeminite, stylish items in my wardrobe that make me look nice. I have a lot of laid back things and a ton of things that make me look like a rocker (I've gotten comments on this before) but I think I should have some just nice things too. I don't know why I want to do this, but I do.
Mybe it's because everytime a girl goes through an emotional crisis, she does at least one of the following things:
1. Cuts her hair
2. Changes hair color
3. Goes shopping
I had my hair cut a month ago and I like my hair color, so I think I'm going with option three. |

And by that, I mean life sucks so hard right now, it's blowing me dry (figuratively speaking, of course). Here's why: in the past week and a half, I've managed to lose my debit card, my dugout, and my glasses.
I finally got a new debit card, but last Friday I went out to a couple parties and somewhere along the way I lost my dugout AND my glasses and have NO idea where they are. I was also kind of drunk, so trying to retrace my steps is a little difficult since I can't remember most of them. I've messaged like a dozen people and I'm still waiting for replies, but if anyone who was with me that night has anything to say, let me know cuz I don't want to have to replace my dugout and my glasses cuz that's expensive, and cuz I really liked them and have a special bond with them and I miss them.
The last place I remember having my dugout was before I went to Rachel's party.
The last place I remember having my glasses was at Rachel's party (I think, unless I'm making up crazy drunk memories).
Once again, if anyone has any information, let me know. Thanks! |

There are good people in this world. I still can't get over how you always find them when you stop looking. It's always the moment you throw your hands in the air, say "to hell with it!" and walk away...
...that you walk right into somebody else. |

We watched this short video in one of my telecomm classes, and it's pretty mind-blowing stuff. Watch it for yourself...it's about 5 minutes long.

God does it feel good to be back in my dorm again. I'm almost done moving in...I just have to organize all my old paper work and stuff. I'm relishing throwing out all of my old calculus and chemistry papers right now. I'm looking forward to the classes I have this semster. Last semster, I had fun partying and being all irresponsible, but this semster I'm actually going to make some effort.
By the way, I saw "The Ringer" this weekend, and it was hilarious. It wasn't just funny either- it had a god message to go with it (surprisingly). I highly recommend this movie. |

I really liked this Christmas. My older cousin (John) and I are starting to hang out again. We were partners in crime...totally inseparable...when we were ages 4-13, and then once he was 14 and I was 13, we stopped hanging out. We were so different. But that's how I started hanging out with my younger cousin (Sarah) and we got really close and ever time I came down to visit we would catch up on everything that happened to us. But I always missed John. He was kind of a standoffish prat for a while. He's raelly matured this past year though, and now we're hanging out again and it's really funny how similar our personalities are...kind of scary because not many people act or think like me.
I don't know...maybe it's cuz I'm older, but I like seeing my family more and more. MAybe I've just come to appreciate them. Even though we see eachother about 4 times a year, once we're together, it's like we haven't seen eachother in a week instead of x number of months.
I spent so much money on presents for everyone this year. I've made so much money from working so much, I just really wanted to show people that I really care about them even though I can be an obnoxious twit. It felt good- I put a lot of thought into my presents this year- I don't know why, I just felt like it. I got my two best friends presents I think they really liked; I got my other best friend a Lord of the Rings Poster and his face lit up when he opened it. I guess i'm just realizing how attached to the people in my life I really am. I even spent a ton of money on my parents- I literally got them every item I knew they wanted.
Sorry this entry is so gushy.
Even though it's Christmas and stuff, I feel kind of depressed. Don't know why...I haven't been able to pin it down yet. |

Yesterday I had my french final, this morning was my calculus. Because I had to make my movie last weeks (and I still need to make copies for myself), I barely had time to glance at my two finals I've had so far.
French was yesterday. I think I did OK, but it's hard to tell.
My calculus was this morning at 8 am (bullshit!) and I was dead tired...not even a cup of coffee helped much (speaking of which, there's this guy who works at Collins and when I went down and asked him this morning if Collins takes debit, he said no. But before I walked out, he was like, "It's OK, I'll just pay for it" and insisted. I got the coffee and thanked him, and he was like "Don't you want any food?" I wasn't hungry, so I just got coffee, but wasn't that sweet? I need to get this guy a christmas card or something....this is the second time he's let me get free food).
While I was taking my calculus final, an amazing thing happened: I felt like I knew exactly what I was doing. Which shouldn't be becuase I'm clueless on homework assignments. But I felt clueless on only 2 problems and the rest was a cakewalk. I have no idea what my grade will be now.
And now, I think I'll return to my nap. That rocking out has exhausted me. |

Psssssst! I got great news. I"M FINALLY DONE SHOOTING MY FILM!!!! My film group and I went over to Stacy's house around 6:30 and we stayed there until 3:30 in the morning shooting and we finished it! Stacy helped out so much with everything- she'd practice lines with us, she did make up, hair, got us props. She's bascially like the unofficial member of our group. This movie could not have been made without her.We had to cut a lot out so that we could finish it on time, which made me sad, cuz there's was a lot of good stuff in it. But we had to get it done on time- it counts as our final exam, afterall. I'm so excited!
Before we went over to Stacy's, we met for like 4 hours to rehearse scenes so we would be prepared to shot when we got there, and it made SO much difference. I literally sat a table and made a storyboard for each scene for 3 hours straight. I can't wait to edit!
The we all went out to Steak n' Shake to have a celebration victory dinner and I just got home. Two other girls are giong to watch what's edited so far. But I have now been awake for 32 hours, and the people in my group said I was acting really out of it and I should sleep tonight and edit tomorrow. They're probably right. I fee like I'm drunk right now, but I'm not loud. And my eyes are slits and I can't open them any wider. Thankgoodness Hillary gave me another adderall this evening or I would not have survived. This one girl in my film group said she once took 60 milligrams of adderall at once and was awake for 48 hours and she said she started hallucinating and got so loopy. Isn't that crazy? I never knew that. I want to try it now though.....
I really like the people in my group. We've definitely all gotten to know eachtoerh through this film project. I hope those two girls weren't blowing me off by telling me I should go home and sleep tonight. |
