whole day of theater fun

sooooooooooo im really tired. and the sad thing is i didnt really do alot today. i am doing spotlight for the musical, and we had chapel previews in both chapels and then a matinee show at 12 for kids from abunch of different schools. which was a very interesting show because they were doing a cut show that they had never rehearsed before. but it wasnt so bad. and i guess being in a dark room all day standing doing spot makes a person tired, cause i was really tired by the end. the show ended and we were out of there by 2:30, and i wanted to come back to the dorm and take a nap, but i had to do a chemistry asa. so i did that, diddled on the computer until dinner at 6, and then went to bible study; which was AMAZING tonight!!!! the singing was so good today, no lie, i loved it. i mean, its always good, but somthing about tonight, everyone was loud and it was just powerful. but yeah, had a great bible study, and then went to the first meeting/readthrough of the play im in. that was fun. and wow this play is weird. crazy things happen in it. but at the end your like, well i was like "aww, good story." so yeah, its good and i think we have an amazing cast and im excited. its going to be a fun and really good show!

oh yeah! i almost forgot! and it was rainy today (really glad i didnt have class) and so i got to wear my new rainboots and step in as many puddles as i wanted!!! yay!!
:-D

late nights in the theater

so, i signed up to do spot light last week for the theater, and monday and tuesday ive been doing just that. monday night we had rehearsal from 6:30 to 11:17. we werent doing show stuff that whole time, but we were there in the theater. actually yesturday we could have left an hour before we actually did because we ended up not having to do the one scene we were waiting on to do. and then today Lynn said we had to be there at 6, so amber and i got there at 6, when really, that wasnt the case and we didnt start till 7 and then we got out of there at 11:20. so so tired. but tomorrow i dont have class all day!! yay! we have chapel preview songs during both chapels, and then we have a matinee showing for little kids starting at 12, and then we are done for the day. no class, no rehearsal that night, done!! the stage still needs tech work done for it (painting mostly) so i might stay and help out with that. but im pretty excited about the all theater day!! hooray!!
also tomorrow we have the first meeting/read through of the one act play i am in (Hush: an interview with america). so thats exciting also. i cant wait to get started on that. and get back into doing theater stuff. i love it!!
hmm, and i just got a call from some girl and i am now not only keeping my friend brooklyn in my room for bisondaze, but some other girl that i dont know in here too. hopefully that works out and is cool. hope they have room. brooklyn is bringing an air mattress....sooo...i dont know. hopefully that girl brings somthing she can sleep on and we have room. we should be ok though. no biggie. im gonna feel bad because thursday night im gonna have to be in rehearsal all night, but my roommate will be here and maybe they will have stuff planned. who knows, i sure dont.
what i do know though is that i want to get to bed. so im outta here! :-)

weekend at home with my roomie

this weekend was lots of fun! i took leah home with me. friday was pretty uneventful. leah, me, my mom and my brother and his friend went out to eat at Tamolly's (mexican resturant) and it was great, i got to update my mom about stuff thats been going on with school. some of my friends were also there, so i went and talked to them for awhile and they said they were going out to brandon's after they ate. so after eating good food leah and i went to brandons and played pool and pingpong and poker and we ended up staying the night there with everyone. then saturday was a shopping day, yay!! my mom had these coupons for bath and body works, so she took us there and bought leah and i stuff so we could get the coupon deal (buy 10 dollars of stuff, get something for free). then she agreed to take us to rockwall to go shopping for rainboots. we went to oldnavy first and they were having a great sale! so we got some clothes there and then we went to target for rainboots and found some and bought them! so yay for rainboots and being able to walk from class to class in the rain without getting your shoes and bottoms of pants completely wet!! then saturday night leah and i went to the movies with some of my friends and we got a ticket for "the marines" but that was a stupid movie and so we found the theater "flags of our fathers" was playing in and some of use switched to see that movie. which was alot better. and sad! especially when you know people that are in the armed forces going over seas right now :-( good movie though. it too was about the marines...only this one gave honor and respect to them, not a cheesy dumb movie like the other one would have been.
sunday we went to church (had a bible class lesson on ch.10 in revelation...very odd chapter) and then left to come back here to school. where i had to go almost straight to fiddler rehearsal because im doing one of the spotlights. but that wasnt so bad. it was only like....hour long. maybe hour and 1/2 after we left. not bad at all. then i ate, came back and finished ch.3 part one chem homework, painted my fingernails, im writing this, and now its bed time.
so moral of the story is: yay for weekend! :-D

today was a good day

good day it was indeed. i had a western civ test this morning and although i could have studied harder and done a little better, i dont think it was that bad. and then in tech theater we actually got to go and work on the set for the musical. that was cool. and i signed up to do spot light for the musical. which now i dont think i should have done because i have a friend coming down for one. and if i do it she wont have anyone to sit with. and for two i was planning on going home this weekend, but amber told me later that this weekend are the first two tech rehearsals :( sooooo i dont know if i will end up doing spot or not. we shall see, i am going to talk to lynn tomorrow.
more good about the day was that i got a nap between lunch and chemistry. yay for naps. and i tried to take one after chemistry but ended up not being able to fall asleep, but just layed in bed and watched tv anyway untill dinner and bible study. i love being lazy.
bible study was great. just for the fact that there was one was great, i love midweek church/bible studies. i love singing devo songs. and afterward amber, jody, andy, and i stayed around until about 9:30 and watched Lost and hung out. fun stuff....love those guys.
so that was my good day. lazy and wonderful. i did a little bit of chem, not much. ill finish the paper tomorrow. and tomorrow im gonna have to study for the bible test on friday, boo on studying. but at least today was good!

rainy day blues

not only was it a monday, but it was a constantly rainy monday. maybe weather really does affect mood. i dont know. but it has been one of those days. where i have so much to do, but been in a mood that makes it hard to do it. the day wasnt necessarily bad. so at least thats good. just the mood. i got my chem test back and got a 105 on that. so that was good. but then i got a 76 on a lab...well, actually 86 because im supposed to be getting 10 points back on that. so i guess its not that bad. and i got a part in the play i tried out for sunday night. its just an ensemble part, but its a part and it was my first play to try out for. and you know what they say "there are no small parts, just small actors" and im happy to be in the play, small part and all. and my friend amber got the main part and im excited for her! shes gonna do great, and we get to be in a play together, so cool cool. so really it has been a pretty good day. besides the rain. and the mood. and all the work i still have to do that i havent done yet. and dont wanna do....but hey, its only 8:38....
ok well, i stepped away from my computer for a bit to go next door and then down the hall...and yeah. now its 10:30...man, time flys. but its all good. now my suitemate is going to trim my hair and then its work time :-D

friday the 13th!! woooh


so tonight was a pretty fun night. and im glad that the weekend is now here. this week has been one of those ek weeks where you just wanna do nothing but sleep. wasnt a bad week or anything per say, just one were you dont care about doing anything except going to bed and wanna just stay there.
today was friday the 13th, and was closer to good luck than bad. nothing lucky happened, but it wasnt a bad day (w00t for that). i started my weekend early and didnt go to my chem class at 2. sorry dr.burt. but when its been a week like that and your already in a nap and your going over stuff in class that you've already learned twice before....not much incentive in coming. but anyway, so i took a nap from about 1 to almost 5. very nice indeed. i ate left over chili's. which, for being recooked was pretty good. and then chelsea invited us to go to the movies and see "barn yard" with her and a group of people. it was at the realto?...the place where its only a dollar. that place is pretty neat actually, esp someone who's interested in theater and old buildings and stuff like that. it used to be an actualy theater and they turned the balcony into the projection area and they just bought a projection screen and put it up like how we have in the benson. but it still has the main curtain up and it was just pretty neat. as for the movie...i didnt think it was going to be so good. i mean, yeah it looked like it had the potential to be a cute kid movie...but nothing great. i loved it! it was cute and funny and was just a great movie. pretty enjoyful if i do say so myself, and i would most def recommend everyone seeing it. its going to be one i buy when it comes out. well, after the movie we all went to wendys and then at wendys decided that since it was friday the 13th we should go rent a scary movie and go watch it in the cemetary. sooooo, we did it. we went back to the dorms to get blankets and sweaters and then met up at the movie gallery. we ended up renting a not so scary looking movie though because we were with some people that really didnt like scary movies, so we didnt wanna go with anything too intense. so we rented a movie called "santa's slay" (and yes i meant to spell that slay instead of sleigh). and we went out to the cemetary and set up a laptop and watched this movie. the movie was sooo dumb. this i would NOT recommend for anyone to see. really stupid. but, the fact that we were all out there was fun and we made comments and kinda talked through the movie and made fun of it. and we ended up watching the movie right behind this huge statue of jesus, so after the movie was 'over' (ended up freezing and skipping, so we didnt even get to see the end) we took pictures with jesus. they will be on my facebook as soon as chelsea gets them up. fun stuff.
and so that was my friday night. good times indeed.

its monday again

this weekend like i said was full of nothing. sunday was a no bueno day. i guess god didnt have planned for my life what i wanted. or atleast not at this moment he doesnt. but the lesson i heard in church that sunday morning is really helping with that, so im really glad i went to that service. the main point of the lesson was "when you cant trace god's hand, trust his heart" and thats what im trying to do. trust in god and know that he will provide whats best for you if you let him. so im praying for strength in that and would like prayers. but sunday night i went to sunday night singing, which is always great and giggled alot with emily. i sure love my friends. im glad ive made some great ones. :)
now to monday...oh the joys of midterm week. tuesday i have a test in wellness and chemistry. luckly though those are the only two this week. unfortunately they were just on the same day. today after class i did ch.11 webassign. then ate dinner. pretty good dinner, i had a sandwich and soup. i liked it, and pretty healthy. then i had to do a wellness lab, which was going out to the track and walking a mile as fast as i could. i did that with jody and dang that girl can walk fast. any faster and we would have been jogging. after that i came back to the dorm and finished webassign and then studied to rest of the time until now for my wellness test. there was soooo much stuff to look over. it was over chapters 1-9! crazy! and we only have two tests in the class. this midterm and the final. so i have to do well on this one. so i studied that and hopefully the test wont be too incredibly detailed because mostly what i studied was just the broad ideas about the topics. eeek, i dont know. we shall see. i didnt study for chem, but i get out of class tomorrow at 12:30-12:45, so i figure ill have plenty of time to study between then and the 6:30 test. i should be ok. me and jen are going to study together starting after lunch, good luck to us. after chem today i think i worked out the stuff i wasnt quite sure i understood, so hopefully im right in that assumption. again, we shall see.
aww, my roommate is sick too :( im sad for her. i hope she gets better really soon. today she went to the nurse and was running a slight fever and the nurse said to "drink water like it was the newest invention" (heehee), and so she's been doing that and she went to bed early tonight. so hopefully all that will help. before she went to sleep she said her throat was starting to hurt her too though. hopefully all it is is drainage and nothing anymore serious.
well, i believe thats all for todays update. peace :-P

havent posted in awhile

hmmm lets see...whats happend since wednesday?? well, that weekend i went home for homecoming. i got to see alot of highschool friends, so that was cool. we didnt win the game, but i watched like maybe 2 plays, so i wasnt really there to see that anyway. mostly just to see friends. then saturday morning i drove to oklahoma christian to see my friend carla. i had such a good time there. my personality seemed to really fit there, too bad i didnt know that before i came to harding. naaa, i love harding, but i could see myself going there too and being really happy. hmmm....this week has gone by pretty fast. thursday i went to the epic hero concert. that was fun. there was about 30 people there maybe. so i feel bad for the band cause not alot of people showed up, but the people that were there had fun. so it was all good. i liked the band and i had fun. then friday and saturday i watched the xmen movies in the benson. hmmm...i cant really think of anything else to put really...i dont know...its also 2 in the morning though...so yeah. that could possibly be why. but yeah. i think its probably bedtime. ill try and not fall behind of posting again :-D
