... Where do I even start?

Umm... it's Spring break... :D

Let's see... I left off in February... Hmm...

In general...

The Children's Play got cancelled :/
^ I'd rather not talk about that

Ball State housing stuff has arrived!
^ Did I mention I finally got into the Theatre Dept?!?!?! :D

My Kindergarteners are so sweet :D
^ I was quite worried, but..... They're so adorable!!!

Calculus is more than stressful >.<
But Frank is in there!
And W131 and Speech... are actually pretty cool classes
[Oliver's attitude has changed since he's gotten married XD]

Band has it's ups and downs...
But Zach and Malia always make it better :)
As does Carpenter with Jazz Band.


I conquered every senior girl's fear.
I asked Charlie to Prom a while ago.
And as for his answer?
Well... let's just say picking out a tux was quite an adventure XD

That pretty much sums up everything up to this point.
My Spring Break plans?
No, I'm not going off to Florida as most people are.
I'm staying home and around Greenfield, as I have many chores to do XD

Tomorrow I'll be going to Wal-Mart, Kristy's, and Marsh for random things,
Organizing,
Maybe going to the Children's Museum Thursday? Fingers Crossed!,
and, well...
Getting my tattoo on Friday XD
It's a purple and green butterfly on my right side [just above my hip]
Not very large.
But as a disclaimer for those of you in California--
Let's not tell Grandma-- K?

Oh! And wedding dress shopping with Paula! :D

Oh, Honeywell, how I love thee...

It's the middle of February.

And I'm sick of this snow.

.....

Ok, I'm sick of it being dark outside.

I LOVE that we went to school today for a makeup day [one of the two] and yet, we have been alerted that there is a snow day tomorrow :D

Everything academic-wise has been going very well.

Band[s]? Fine
Teaching? I love my little Kindergarteners ^_^
Speech & W131? Great!
EB? Why wouldn't it be great?
Calc? Much better than first semester.
Theory? Love those people :D

Not much else to say I guess...

Just lots of homework.

And tomorrow will be filled with scholarship-like things.

Umm... Tech Week, anyone?

Yup, it's Tech Week for the One Acts.

Lots of homework over the weekend.

And lots of tech work that still needs to be and.




And lots and lots of stuff to carry into school tomorrow since I'm bringing in my own costume.

Yup... IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII'm a dead person :D

*sigh*

There's SOOOOOOOOOOO much stuff going on in February...

One Acts.

Officer Workshop.

Ball State!

Prom dress shopping?

Another workshop.

More tech.

Indoor and guard contests,

and fundraising stuff for Drama.

Jeez...

And on the 4th day, God said....

"Let there be snow.
Lots and lots of snow.
Just not enough to close Greenfield-Central schools.
But enough to send them home early.... and make WalMart run out of bread!"

Jeez God is picky XD

Yup, It's the 4th day of the second, new, and last semester. I got to walk into school and promtly report to the Band Room, assemble my trumpet, and go sit in the pep Band section of the gym for, well, what THEY call a pep session.

It's Homecoming, too. And the theme is Superheros.
I have no problem with this.
It's quite cool.
But.... Spiderman is better.

Anyway, Monday... Band was the first class. Oh joy.

Then Jazz Band.
Yeah.
Jazz Band.
Brass players, thank you for your sympathy.
Speaking of brass players, Matt McCune joined this semester and has the awesome black trumpet that Carpenter's talked about.
It's lived up to it's legacy.

Then, lunch.
Carpenter
Seth
Emily!
Tim
Alex
Andy
Malachi
Thomas
Renee
and Brett.
Needless to say, we had quite a crowded table.

Then Cadet Teaching.
I got to walk with Emily since she's in AP Physics at the same.

Elsworth put us in a storage closet, but whatever.

Hearing Ben say random crap out of context is pretty awesome.
Like buying Elsworth a chair :D

I made my way to Speech, and was already given my first speech assignment [intros-- woo.] on top of no friends in the class... And it's SO PACKED! :(



Tuesday started out with EB, including Hermes, Charlie, Ted, Javi, and I'm sure a couple others. They cram as many of us in there as they can.

Then Ap Calc, where, by God, Frank's in there! It's a Christmas miracle! That, and I understood the lesson perfectly! If you can count little squares, you're in!

Then back in the Music Department, I went to Theory which now has 2 less people, but hey, that class still has the best people in it. We even tried to catch the Band Room mice XD

That led to Erin beating me up, but it was worth it :D

4th lunch. Only Hermes and Austin. And Don.

Then W131. I shot straight towards Carolyn when I saw her. And Wilson and Andrew are in the class. It's REALLY small. First assignment over "The difference between high school and college"

All the articles we're gonna read seem interesting. I get didn't like how the guy switched topics half way through about beliefs.


Then I had my first read through ever as an actor.

I'm in Jayme's One Act as a Dead Person :D


Like I said, it's the fourth day, but the last two days went pretty much the same.

Except the freakin' massive snowstorm that let us get out of school early.

Speaking of school...

I would like to add that as of October 27, November 14, and December 11th, I was accepted into Indiana State, Ball State, and Purdue, respectively :D






And I got to fly on Nov. 14 [last day of Peter Pan[since I can't remember if I mentioned it or not]]. Just one more thing I can mark off my Bucket list from this year XD

School.

Oh yeah... That academic thing in between rehearsals...

Well... the first semester's over. I passed Gov and Econ, with A's in both suprisingly.

Jazz Band, Band, and EB... what grade do you THINK I got??

Health was just as I suspected-- easy, stuff I already knew, immature sophmore boys [although their fight about sexuality was quite interesting], and an A.

Music Theory was quite a ride... Half music atudents, half... not. The first nine weeks were really simple [stuff you learn in middle school], and the second nine weeks were ok once Mr. A pounded the info into your head 1375849036729 times. I never thought I would like that class as much as I do, but the people are awesome.

That leaves Ap Calculus. Stupid, stupid math [sorry Ryan!]. I got along ok with it until last week. It's just really frustrating that I keep getting F's without the cirve on tests. I needed an 80 on the test last week to keep my B, but I got a 74.

It probably sounds stupid to most of you to so worked up over one grade, but... my parents really are powerschool nazis.

So, there's the 1st semester for ya.

Next semester I have
B1 Band
B2 Jazz
B3 Cadet teaching
B4 Speech

G1 Eb
G2 AP Calc
G3 Music Theory
G4 W131

I'll let you know how the double dose of Oliver works out :D

Drama.

Not HS drama.

Drama.

I'd much rather forget the first of the two.

At the beginning of the year-- I was beyond sad. I really was. [I already talked about this, so feel free to skip to the next paragraph] I couldn't try out for Caught in the Act b/c of marching band, and I had to miss a lot of officer meetings, but...

Peter Pan. Wow. I did my tectress thing and bounced between both being an Indian and a stageninja the best I could. The set was huge-- a pepto bismal pick nursury, revolving woods/underground [Emily really outdid herself], and... wow. We all thought Beauty and the Beast was great...

I can't really say much more about it b/c I was at Band all the time, and right after Peter Pan was Thanksgiving, so Drama came to a halt for a while-- long story short I couldn't try out for Diinner Theatre, even though I could've now [coughjazzbandcough] and I tried out for the One Acts on Thursday, the last day of school for the semester. I think it was probably my second to best monologue. Tucker even asked me if I'd cut my hair, and I said yes. The only bad thing is now we all get to wait until after winter break to see the cast list XD
