Friday Night

It’s 3:30 in the morning and I’ve had a very good crappy day. I’m just laksdjfwo and have no one to talk to and really just want to explode. So if I say something I shouldn’t oh well I don’t care! I just got back singing with Daniel and Rachel or rather not singing with them. Turns out this whole time when I’ve been singing with them they been planning to do a revue of a bunch of musicals for all of BJ and not just making a list of songs they like and don’t like. I don’t know I just sort of felt hurt that they thought they had to lie to me about it. I think it’s a great idea and I can’t wait to watch them. I just would have rather them have just said hey we don’t want you to do it with us. I’m not a singer and I never claimed to be! I hardly even read music and I definitely have a hard time associating the note on the page with what I’m singing. But they’re both vocally trained and amazing so I completely understand. I’m just a girl who likes to sing, I don’t care if I sing well or not! So it’s not like I would be offended for them not to want me to be part of their revue. I mean I was never a lead in a musical or even had a named part for crying out loud!! I just was really upset that two people that I was trying to become good friends with wouldn’t be honest with me. And tonight Dan was being so mean to me. He purposely did the opposite of anything I said just to spite me. I don’t know why he’s mad at me. But maybe I should pause and return to the beginning of this evening.

Well I went to somewhere on the other side of town to go thrifting with some floor mates which was fun. But, I missed dinner and when I got back everyone was gone so I had no one to hang out with. So I ordered dinner from somewhere and was going to sit down for a nice evening of HP 1 but to my dismay I couldn’t find it anywhere!!! I still haven’t located it!! So instead I had a Roswell fest and watched the first 4 episodes. Drank some hot chocolate, it was fun. Then I decided to go see if anyone was around and found people hanging out in the lounge carving pumpkins and watching a movie. Stayed there for a while and then went to see if Rachel had gotten up and Dan was back. So I played some weird game with them for a while and then we went up stairs to watch something which turned out to be Sex and the City. Now I had never watched this show before and hung out for a little while until one scene and I left because well… it was not my idea of entertainment. So I went back and watched school of rock for a while in the lounge. Ben was there looking tired as usual. Again he didn’t say much if anything to me. Granted he was watching the movie but still. I don’t know; I’m tired of initiating things with him you know? I have absolutely no idea where I stand with him because he never talks about it. We go out we have fun and then it’s good night I’ll see you around. I don’t even know if I even like him anymore, I hardly get to talk to him through the week. It’s just that… I don’t know. I think I want someone with a bit more fire, someone I can argue with who isn’t always so tired. Someone who will tell/show me how he feels. Anyways I digress, then I realized I still had Daniel’s hat so I thought I’d return it to him and go to bed but he wasn’t anywhere in his house. And where do I find him? Singing with Rachel without me again. And that’s when they finally tell me about the revue. I just feel really lonely right now. No best friend to spill my worries to because the three people I enjoy spending time with the most are lying to me or are too tired and busy to talk to me at all. And here I am at 3:45am on a Saturday, all alone.

German

I hate german!!!! I have an oral test today and I'm going to fail. I was up studying with Dan last night. He really helped me out with the pronunciation. Probably would have gotten more work done alone but hanging with Rachel and Dan was fun. Anyhow, I need to go study cuz my oral is in an hour. Oh I got the coolest sweat shirt today! It says the University of Chicago on the the front and "Where fun comes to die" on the back. It's sad that I think that's cool lol. Hopefully I'll write more later! Vale!

Museum day

So i was up until 4 in the morning last night. I was singing with Daniel and Rachel for 4 hours and then me and daniel went to this blues thing for an hour. THen we came back and rachel joined us again to watch Beauty and the Beast. Then we were talking and all of a sudden it was 4 in the morning! They helped me find all the post it notes that were hidden in my room by the obscene post it note fairy. Someone hid post-its all over my room!! I don't know who did it or how they got in my room. ANd who knows when they did it! I didn't notice it until yesterday! Darn my floor mates! Well today Ben came and knocked on my door and woke me up to ask when we were going to the field museum. We had a great time but I totally forgot I had to work today at 4! So we missed the first bus cuz i can't read but we got to the OI by a quarter till but i didn't have my uniform shirt. So he ran back to the dorm and got it for me cuz i'd never be able to get there and back in time. The Field museum was amazing though! They have so many mummies and things. I wan't impressed by the crapy lighting. They were trying to make it feel like a tomb but you couldn't see the artifacts very well. THen i went and got a bite to eat and went home. So now i'm here and i really need to do some hw cuz i've got 2 mid-terms on mon. but i don't feel like it. I think i'm going to go see HP but i don't have anyone to go with. Guess I'll go read something. Vale!

Sunday

Today was a pretty typical Sunday. I went to church early for choir practice. Yes, I joined the gregorian chant choir so i get to sing in latin!! Wahoo! It's fun. Of course i did no work yesterday so i've been doing homework all evening. I finished 6 books of the iliad and still have 3 more to read in the morning. What fun! I did my German homework with ben since we're both taking the same german with different teachers so we get two different perspectives on everything. He also helped me do some of my math since he's one of those honors calc. geniuses (there are many in coulter lol). So that's about all to there is to say. Just did a lot of studying. Oh I borrowed the fantastiks from daniel so i'll have a new musical to listen to tomorrow. And i think i'm going to go help out doing lights for a show tomorrow. Should be fun so long as i get my hum. paper done by wed. Talk to you later!
P.s. I also put up signs today cuz i'm hosting movie night. We're watching the complete works since no one in this dorm has ever heard of it. It'll be great!! Vale for real this time!

Been busy

Oh my goodness! I really hate German!! I did so much german this week it's not even funny. No more listening excercises please!! I don't think i failed the test but i'm really behind on my hum. reading now. I've got all weekend though. Lets see what have I been up to? Friday night I was hanging out with ben. We went walking around for a while and then we went and saw a movie at doc. It was that jim carrey movie where he's trying to erase this girl from his memory. I really liked it. I mean everything just came together! But we went to the 11:30 showing so we didn't get home until 2 in the morning. Needless to say i didn't wake up until 11am today. Went to breakfast/brunch. Lets see, then i did laundry and cleaned my room. Emily across the hall had the nerve to clean her room and my room looked so bad next to her clean one that i had to clean it. Then I went to work at the Oriental Institute Museum. (I'm a guard!) Everyone was being too good though! I didn't get to tell a single person not to lean on the case!! Ben stopped by to say hi and show off his heirogliphic skills lol. Later, i was talking to one of the other guards who was really nice. Then i came home and me, kenna, and emily went to hutch commons to get something to eat since the dining hall doesn't serve food on sat. night. Then I got a white hot chocolate from bart mart which was really nice since it was so cold out. So then I was back in my room and really didn't want to do homework so I went to one of the lounges to sing. Tonight was "there are worse things i could do" from grease. Why? Who knows. So now i'm back in my room and still don't want to read the iliad so i'm updating my blog lol! Well must stop this procrastinating! Vale!

Very very long day

Oh my goodness today was so long. I stayed up really late last night reading the Iliad. It took me an hour to figure out I was re-reading stuff i've already read so I was totally behind and another hour in to my actual assignment and I was asleep. So I went to humanities with only half the reading done but it was no bigie. Unfortunetly, now I have a whole ton of homework to do today and the reading from yesterday. I have auditions from 5-7 and then at 7 i'm supposed to meet some guys from rotc for dinner! I'm never going to get any work done. I really wanted to go read through some of antigone before the audition but it looks like it will be the iliad instead. I also had my "activite de votre choix" for french today and my sign up sheet said it was in stuart at 3pm. Stuart is a rather large building so i went to the foreign language office to ask what room and there were 2 ladies talking in an office and after seeing me and two other girls trying to find the same place for about 10 minutes they closed the door without ever acknowledging (sp?) our existence!! So we all went to stuart but couldn't find a sign or anyone who could give us any sort of directions. So now i'm going to have to e-mail my interviewer and see if I can reschedual. Oh well. I really didn't want to do it today anyways. Well gtg do homework. Vale!

Today...

Ok, I'll start with a few clarifications due to recent comments (cough cough Jason!!). BJ is short for Burton Judson which is the name of my dorm and no i could not figure out for the life of me what on earth is wrong with the abbreviation "BJ". I think I'll take it as a compliment that i'm all together unable to think like a guy in this particular case. My job is going great. I get to roam the galleries and memorize every silly fact about each egyptian artifact; it's great. I actually went to go turn in my soc. security card today and clear up some stuff with my schedual and only managed to screw it up more. Gotta e-mail my professor now. Oh well won't be the first time. Listening to wicked right now. I'm kinda stuck on it for some reason. Haven't had time to pick it up today, no time! I'm on the part where they just took Fiyero away and Elphaba has taken refuge with some religious women. And no one better even think about telling me what is about to happen!!! Did I tell you I made a web site a few days ago? It's a tour of my dorm room! Wish i had time to waste on web sites now. Unfortunetly, I'm probably going to be up all night doing homework but if you wanna check it out go to http://www.geocities.com/iana333/myroom.html. Oh, and i'm auditioning for Antigone tomorrow. Hopefully, it'll all go well! Vale!

So i'm totally lazy...

Well, I haven't written on here in forever! Well at least a few days and soooo much has happened. Lets see where to begin. i guess I'll start by letting you all know i didn't get cast in a single show this quarter which really bites but oh well it happens. On sat. i went down town and hung out with ben. We got some of the best chicago deep dish pizza ever!! Then we cruised the magnificent mile and borders (I was totally freezing and was trying to find somewhere to go to get out of the cold. Ben just laughed at me! So what if I'm a wimp from FL!!). Then he wanted to get ice cream but I got hot chocolate cuz again I was freezing!! Lets see, sunday i slept in and went to church at 5pm. Then, I don't really remember. Just goofed off probably. Oh yeah, I was reading wicked! That book can definetly keep me from my studies! Today was your typical monday. I had to get up at 4am to do homework becuase I was distracted and reading all day on sun. Classes were just sort of boring especially math! Spent the afternoon surfing the net and reading wicked. Tonight, I went to my first BJ council meeting. We sort of plan inter BJ house events. Then the pit snack shop opened tonight so everyone was hanging out down there. I was chilling with Ben cuz he finally broke down and did his laundry. So we were mostly just talking and such. Not really been a very eventful few days, just very busy. Well, Vale! Must sleep!
