Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire opening was awesome. Dianna came with me and as we were waiting in line I saw Ally (karate camp), and then I realized that behind her was Gabby. It was an incredible night because it was random, stupid, and I liked the movie. The movie had very little to do with the book, but the movie was great. After we took Dianna home, I saw some of the meteor shower and I felt like I was doing very well in astronomy to be able to distinguish the fact that I had seen more than one; but also that I could distinguish them from shooting stars.

Katie'skatie'skatie'skatie's. We (her family and myself) went to the Regionals (I think), and it was good. Okay, no it wasn't. It wasn't bad but it definitely wasn't great. There was maybe two tenors who knew how to hold pitch (one of them went to Kittatiny and has a fantastic, fantastic voice. It was cool to hear him, but he knew that his section sucked major ass.) After the choir there was the orchestra which was just fucking boring. It was like, "Is this going to end yet?" The next day Katie and I went to her *cough* Pep Band party *cough, cough, cough, cough.* There was a boy named Adam who met me and was like, "Oh, right. You're John's girlfriend." I'm like, "WILL IT EVER FUCKING DIE?" It annoyed me. However the older guys were nice, and Matt made me laugh. (He wants to be a teacher, however, which lost him points.) The next day we went to see Godspell which was great. Not all of the guys were on pitch but the guy who played Jesus and two other guys were really, really good. (The guy who played John/Judas was a good actor but couldn't sing fast enough. I wanted to hug him because he was really trying.) Katie, however, saw that the infamous Anne Marie was there. We had to do a lookdownatthecellphone thing, and then I had to sneak out because I didn't want to cause a scene. I think we went to choir and then I went home.

I took the math and reading (yes, reading) tests at SCCC. Why? Because I hadn't taken them at CCM so we figured it would be good just in case. It was actually really pretty there at night with a fantastic view of Newton/Hampton. That's all that I remember of that day.

Tuesday my mom and I volunteered at Genesis Farm and got nicknames (my mother is Daughter of Willow and I'm Child of Fire.) It was very nice and a nun, whom you would never suspect to be a nun, gave me the idea to do something with religion for my course at Goddard College. ^_^ That was a fun time, actually.
5:
Left for Baltimore after classes (a very funny astronomy class because it was just, "Hey! Let's play around in the planetarium!") Baltimore. Wow. Thanksgiving was... wow, oh my god. I would love to tell you the story in all its hilarity, but I'm only going to do that by request (which I do not think I'll receive.) ^_^ Something to do with a drunk aunt, how my mother and I were redeemed, and a Haitian woman. Ask. ;D Went to the American Visionary Art Museum (the gift shop had things like Shakespeare and Edgar Allen Poe bobble head dolls, as well as a "Grow-a-Heart" thing which you put in water. Awesomeness) and then went to a Monet exhibit at the Baltimore Museum of Art. On the upside of the BMA there was a Botticelli piece which I'm going to write my next art history paper on. (The Monet was beautiful, however.)
6:
I did not go home after Baltimore, instead I went to Katie's grandparents' house. (That's when you know you're apart of someone's family, you go to their grandparents' house. However I can't figure whether or not, or where, to put the comma in that word. Help?) Did that, stayed up late, realized that I was very dehydrated and had not eaten food which I was accustomed to for a very long time. Needless to say: did not feel well.
7:
Went to Christ Church the next morning because there was a thing about poetry there. A guy I knew was supposed to be there, but he wasn't. Apparently it was the first of Advent, and it turned out to be high mass. Incense and everything. Good job! Go to church with incense while sick! Yay! I don't even believe in this stuff! (Got to make fun of Byron though, and his "man-bag." Byron goes to church for free food. His little brother looks like my next-door neighbor, Charlie, whom both of us have been plotting to kill since 2002/3.)
8:
(Same day.) I canceled writing group because everything falls apart I fucking gave up. So, I told Dianna who was the only person who had told me that she was coming ex. Katie. (Justine had called to tell me that she wasn't coming. I figured that no one else was coming.) Katie, amazingly enough, was also sick. (Blame it on the season, I guess?) So Katie was going to sleep all day, and I was going to clean, do my astronomy extra credit, etc., etc. So, in the middle of all of this, Amelia fucking shows up. Amelia did not call to tell me, or anyone else, that she was coming. Dianna told her to come the day before, but had not told her that it was canceled. I was furious. Amelia did not have her cellphone with her, and did not know her mother's cellphone number. After 20 minutes of having to get her cellphone number and then getting her mother's, her mother said that she would not be coming to pick her up until 5PM anyway. I was pretending that she wasn't in the house and Katie entertained her. I did my astronomy extra credit and slept because I realized that if I was out there I would have been screaming at Amelia. I know my limits. I figure it this way, really: I'm a writer, please explain to me the part where I'm not quirky. Also I was really sick and felt like the world was closing in on me and other such panicky issues. I was afraid my mother was going to be angry because I was sick. However, she let me not to go chorus. (Thank god.) Katie did, however, have to go to chorus because her parents think the choir is more important than their daughter's health. Whatever.
9: Signed up for classes at SCCC on Monday morning. Taking: Effective Speaking, Chorus I, and Photography (which I got the last seat in the class in.) Yayness.
Right now I should be studying for my astronomy test, which is tomorrow afternoon. There is also an art history review (for a test) which Wollock (the teacher) told us to study for, and to come in with questions. I, however, am opting to study for the test which I'm actually having tomorrow, and study for the art history test over the weekend (the test is on Monday.) The shiai is on Sunday as is the Watergap Singer's concert. I am staying at the shiai for and hour and then rushing to the concert. It is 12:38 and all I really want to do is clean up a bit and then continue reading, Queen of the Damned. Two more chapters of astronomy to read! Yay! (Did I mention that's about 70 pages? At 12:38AM. And the test is tomorrow. Yep.) Be well.
