mama shark doo doo do do do doo

Leave for Canada tomorrow morning. Excited.

Celebrated Christmas this morning. Super fun. Felt like a little kid again with the presents. Pleased with these year's haul. Phantom and La Boheme tickets. A gazillion gift certificates. Some lovely books and CDs. wheee.

Went to Central Market and the Modern on Friday with Dave, Matt, Jill, and Sarah. Way fun. Amazing art. All must go before January 8. So worth it.

Saw Crash on Thursday. Intense. Hit myself on the head with my golf club while golfing too. Painful.

Had birthday party on Wednesday. Fun. Trivial pusuit, pizza, random Interact flags, Dazed and Confused, and funny stories are a good party combo. And cake of course. Yum. Losing the weight gained at college is so not happening right now. Maybe a little bit. But not all. Maybe skiing will help.

Yay Canada. Yay skiing.

Tired.

See everyone New Year's. Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night.

miss me?

Wow. It's been a long time. Sorry to all you dedicated readers out there. Finals were a bitch, but I pulled through all right. I can hardly believe first semester is over. Crazy. So, a recap of things that have happened since I last updated:
1. Saw Narnia. It rocked hardcore.
2. Went to the midnight showing of the Rocky Horror Picture Show (that was actually before my last post but I think I forgot to mention it. Whatever). That was amazing. Really, definitely something everyone must experience at least once.
3. Had sledding adventures when it iced/snowed/sleeted/slushed the week before finals. Put my knee through a rubbermaid storage container. Pretty funny.
4. Brought my roommates home for dinner the weekend before the snow and Chloe and I totally beat my parents at Cranium (Shannon had to sit out and study:( )
5. Visited Tyler, Pinson, Salyer, and Eyer on Monday. It was hardcore awesome. I miss them but not as much as I miss Mrs. Eyer. tear.
6. Spent like 6-7 hours cleaning (crap builds up when you're not there everyday to notice) and organizing (ummm my clothes have spawned since I left and no longer fit anywhere) my room today. It sucked hardcore. But now its done at least.
7. Have become addicted to Lost. It's ridic.
8. Finished all my Christmas shopping (and birthday shopping for those coming up as well) early and was happy about that.
9. Am excited for my birthday pary tomorrow night. First time I've had a birthday party since 4th grade (9 birthdays ago...weird. I'm ooooolddd).
10. I'm super going to miss Chloe and Shannon. Maybe even more than Mrs. Eyer.
11. I found my satire in my room. I read some of it. It seems like a lifetime ago that we had to write those.
12. I also found my government test reviews. I couldn't even look at them, I just had to throw them out and move on to keep from crying. Wow. I don't know why. She was just...one of those really special people you only meet once in your life, you know? Like...there will never be another Mrs. Eyer. There isn't. She's too unique and brilliant and I don't even know. I mean, how many teachers can pull off bright metallic blue stilettos? (sp?)
13. I want to read some books over break. My brain is getting mushy.
14. OMG I am SO excited for my English classes this semester especially the American Dream one. The history I'm interested in but not quite as excited for because I haven't been History deprived for the past 7 months.
15. I still have that bracelet on from the Fat Maggi concert in England July 1. Weird.
16. I am excited for Canada. and LD's New Year's party. wheeee fireworks!
17. ooooh went bowling last night with Dave, Sarah, and Matt and then played Trivial Pursuit. Sarah and I dominated both hardcore. splendid.

OK. I think I shall try and read a bit and then sleeeeep.


It doesn't feel like Christmas. It feels like...winter. But not Christmas...like...a cold version of summer vacation. odd for sure.

FUN GAME

Ground Rules: The 1st player of this "game" starts with the topic "5 weird habits of yourself" and people who get tagged need to write a xanga entry about their 5 weird habits as well as state this rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose the next 5 people to be tagged and list their xanga IDs. Don't forget to leave a comment that says "You are tagged" in their xanga and tell them to read yours.

1. I get bored super easily and have to find stupid things to amuse myself with.
2. I am addicted to Broadway musicals and musicals of any sort really and kind of wish I could sing so that I could turn my life into a musical.
3. I dislike conforming and people who do things that they can’t justify doing.
4. I always try to get to events etc. about 10 minutes early because
5. I want to read the complete works of Shakespeare before I die.


Ummm I tag Kyle, Dave, Mal, Matt, and Taylor.
