Is anyone else's neighborhood covered in sleet? Mine is! Why is it that in Memphis, whenever we have winter weather, it just ices and never snows? Or so it seems. The bright side is that even though Christmas is still 3 days away, there's a possibility of a white or semi-white Christmas ( Read more... )

I can't. I'll never be warm again, I swear. I like winter, but if has to be cold, why can't it snow too? The only time I'm ever warm, I think, is when I'm taking a hot shower and the steam is billowing around me, or I'm under mounds of covers on my bed. Or, back around progressive dinner time, I went tanning a few times, and I felt wonderful to ( Read more... )

I'm finished with school for 2004, which is very exciting. One more semester of high school left. I really can't believe it. I can't see myself being a college student. It'll be exciting though. Soon, no more annoying, dumb people that I have see every day. The downside though, is that I won't get to see all my fun, intelligent friends ( Read more... )

I just had a craving to listen to my Phantom of the Opera cd. "Wishing you were somehow here again/wishing you were somehow near/Sometimes it seemed it I just dreamed/somehow you would be here." Evita is coming to the Orpheum this summer! I'm so excited ( Read more... )

Today, while my fellow citizens of the 6th period American Government class were huddled over their desks, pencils in hand finishing their tests, I was trying on clothes at Banana Republic. I think I was having more fun. My mom is the best ( Read more... )

All hail Andrew Gandee. I watched the cross country DVD earlier (thanks to Drew, because he gave me his), and I've got to hand it to "little Gandee," as I used to call him before I could remember his name. While it may not be the best quality, I think it's hilarious and he did a great job. So everyone pay him $5 and get one. Everything is on it ( Read more... )

Saturday reinforced my belief that when good things happen, they all come at once. Of course, the same is true with bad things, I know ( Read more... )

At least I don't get graded for this kind of writing. I'm so frustrated with my Wordsmith essay right now, because I feel as though I'm writing some decent stuff, but it's not quite answering the question. It's half tirade at the bad music (as in poorly written) floating around the community, and half comparison of 2 pieces, and half not written ( Read more... )

The Boltons came for Thanksgiving. It was good to see them, even if it was only for about 24 hours. It makes me feel like 2 different people when I'm with them. I feel like a "city slicker" and a "country bumpkin" at the same time. It's not a fun feeling, because I feel like there is no way to reconcile the two. Sometimes I wish my life hadn't ( Read more... )

Oh yes, Nelba Thomas is my new favorite woman choral director after Mrs. G. and the lady that conducted All State last year. She talked about MY research paper topic. Way to go, Nelba. Even thought your name is . . . different ( Read more... )
