9:45 pm	Exciting things await our heroine in the coming weeks! I love rifle drill, even when it's in the freezing cold and can't feel my toes at the end Eagerly anticipating pledging - starting to get really excited about the prospect A fact previously unknown to me: The Killers' "All These Things That I've Done" = Shakespeare's 1 Henry IV I get to play a Scottish warlord! and (I might be mistaken but I think) I get to kill someone on stage! I get to play a woman who only speaks welsh! I get to sing in welsh! supposedly there's going to be snow in the near future? tomorrow is wednesday. I like wednesday, it's a good day. I've just got a terrific feeling about this whole semester - hopefully I'm not setting myself up to crash and burn here (fingers crossed, knock on wood!) - but I just feel like I'm on top of the world right now, and if I've got any control over it I plan on staying here on cloud nine indefinitely.  I think there's more I'm forgetting, but I probably oughta leave off here and go write my essay on why W&M should take me to Ireland this summer...

2:40 am	i was really proud of myself cuz i hadn't been on lj in two weeks. but then apparently i'm missing things because people now assume that i read about them on lj and i haven't (*koff koff DJ AND JEFF ARE DUMB). so just for future reference, i don't intend to be on here until i go back to school in two weeks, so if you want me to know about something don't think i'll read it here.

3:13 pm	so i'm back from an amazing break now and my to do list is as long as my arm. i didn't accomplish any of the things i was supposed to be doing over break like, i dunno, finding a job for winter break? or working on my theater project which is proving to be a lot harder than it sounds. i mean, how difficult does it sound to do a costume design for a play that you've spent an entire semester discussing? i tell you, it's harder than you think. and because it is hard, my solution is to avoid it as long as possible. and then there are things like my Russian OPI coming up on thurs... i keep getting excited because there is only one more week of classes. somehow my brain keeps ignoring the fact that the REASON there is only one more week of classes is becasue i have FINALS next week. instead it just keeps focusing on hte "i don't REALLY need to do this work" aspect... and i don't have any shows right now or anytime in the foreseeable futur eand it depresses me a lot... i'm actually in a pretty good mood, i'm sitting here listening to christmas music and procrastinating...the problem is that thinking about hte massive number of things i should be doing is depressing but i can't motivate myself to start tackling any of them... p.s. just since i haven't updated all of thanksgiving break, thanksgiving was awesome. in addition to the wonderfulness of family and tj etc i finally saw harry potter which was terrific and i saw Rent twice and OH MAN. FANTASTIC. Current Mood: procrastinating Current Music: "Little Drummer Boy" (2 Comments |Comment on this)

FINALLY done with class... also quite pleased with how little homework i managed to get myself for break... now jsut waiting for my ride and then i get to come home! and none to soon...it's been raining all day and all of yesterday and hte caf hasn't had any really good food in a week or so, i am so ready to be home, even if it's only for a day before i run off to my grandparents... and still sitting here listening to wicked and les miz and choking back tears...i really shouldn't be getting this emotional over a recording, but...

7:21 am	I can't believe my first college show is over...we've been rehearsing this thing since almost ht ebeginning of school, and now it's done...it was so amazingly fun last night -- all us tree fairies lying on our stomachs to peek under the curtains and watch the mechanicals, and tripping on each other's fairy pants, and having a fiary dance party during intermission to the tra-la-la song (i can't remember the actual title...)and laughing hysterically at the play within the play (i <3 mechanicals so much!) and then another fairy dance party after the show, and then running across the rainy freezing wet parking lot and NOT having to move the set across said parking lot and down scotland street to caro's house... i'm hitting that post-post-show-high low where the only thing that can cure it is another show, and i don't have one of those for the rest of the semester and it depresses me until i remember that the semester only lasts another three weeks...

6:46 pm	Registration is one of hte most stressful things i have ever had to deal with...i am so freaked out right now -- half the classes i wanted to take have already filled up, and of course, 1300 people are all going to log on at hte same time tomorrow, meaning that the site will be slow as hell and the first 25 or so of those 1300 will get everything they want and the rest of us will be left frantically scrabbling as our first choices fill up quickly followed by our second and third choices and then oh wait i didn't make any lists of fourth choices and AAACK! This is such a stressful process -- and i have the busiest weekend in a long time ahead of me -- this is the first show i've been in that ocmes with not just a hell week but a hell weekend preceding it as well...hell in a good way, but hellish nevertheless... this temporary breakdown brought to you by the letters R,E,G,I,S,T,A,I,O, and N Current Mood: I'M GOING CRAZY Current Music: Pat Benatar (2 Comments |Comment on this)

12:27 pm	i'm going to go ahead and put htis up cuz i know if i don't lauren or will or mary will and embaress me anyways...i had an interesting saturday evening, i spent it w/ aforementioned persons goofing off w/ tarot cards. the end result is that after much analysis, we determined that i am a very ethical but repressed person and that i am torn by my desires. said desires were determined to be whether to get with Darth Vader or a Priest. hmmm. this is why people should not be allowed to stay awake till 3 am...

6:13 pm	so i had my little vent fest yesterday but just a few little things can change and make you feel so much better...like i think i did really well on my russian test this morning, i'm working out scheduling stuff with theater classes next semester, and both my mornign classes on friday are canceled so i don't have to go to class until ONE PM!!!! which means that i don't have to worry about my lack of sleep catchin gup with me and yeah, my arms hurt from guard yesterday but in a good pain-makes-you-stronger kinda way, i somehow managed to get far enoguh ahead in my homework that i don't have any to do tonight so i've been reading the princess bride for an hour, i finished rereading catch-22 for the sixth or seventh time earlier... i jsut feel in a really good mood today...i didn't get called back for ragtime, but even that isn't really bothering me cuz i never get called back for anything so i wasn't really expecting to get called back for this...cast list goes up tonight though, so keeping my fingers crossed...
