Ehh...It's late...I don't feel like making up a good title...

So, really I only have like two things to say (even though I'm probably gonna end up saying like 5,000,000,000,000 things). So here goes.

1.) I think the auditions at ASF went pretty well. I think that was the best performance of my monologue I've ever done. BUT, there was something that made me unsure. Every one before me had to do a cold read monologue as well (of course no one knew about it until after they performed their original because then it wouldn't be a cold read) after they performed their prepared monologue. Well, it's 11:15 when I get out, and they end at 12:00 and there's about 3-4 people after me. Then, when I finish, I don't have to do a cold read. WHAT THE CRAP?!?!?! Surely they didn't forget to tell me that, because if so, they could have called me after I left. My mother thinks it was because they were running out of time, but I don't know. But if I did well, I SHOULD* hear back from them before January 7th.

2.) I just can't verbally express how much I freakin love Casting Crowns! Jake (my dog) probably hates them though. I play them every night OVER AND OVER AND OVER again and he ends up leaving. Well now it seems whenever I play them, he keeps leaving earlier and earlier. That is too funny (to me at least.)
Well here it is. Topic #3....I told you there would be more...but this one isn't much. I just want to let you guys know...MERRY CHRIST*MAS!!!!!!!!



Annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd I think that's about it. Nothing extraordinary has happened during my Christmas break so far....but, IF* I get a callback from ASF, I'll be sure to blog about it! Adios amigo(s)!

(Insert Catchy Blog Title Here)

Soooooo, I'm just sitting here listening to CASTING CROWN'S (I KNOW RIGHT?!?!) and just pondering. I'm thinking about how I have become a complete nerd...AND I LOVE IT! Let's see...ever since I have come to high school, I have joined drama, band, my sense of style has slightly changed, and someone's dad called me a nerd knocker :3.

Anyways, I just wanted to get that out lol. I'm really worried about acting. I have these HUGE auditions coming up THIS SATURDAY at ASF for acting classes and a shot to be in "A Midsummer Night's Dream" and I haven't even practiced my monologue since state! I am SO scared. What if they don't I'm experienced enough?! There will be people there that have been in a kazillion plays and I've only been in two and been to state twice and both times I BARELY made superior at state. I AM SO SCARED! And I'm not even sure if my monologue shows that I'm serious about my acting (which I am!) And I REEEAALLLLLYYYYY want these classes! It would help my acting TREMENDOUSLY! And to top it all, NO ONE that I know is auditioning, so I'll be there all awkwardly with my parents. It wouldn't be as bad if they weren't there because I get along with drama people easily, but it's just weird with them. UUUGGGHHHHH! I wish this wouldn't stress me out.

Well, let's find a new topic. OH! Another thing to add to my nerdiness....I have JUST NOW started reading Harry Potter! :D And they are really good so far! I'm only on the third book right now though lol.

Oh and today I found out I won an abstract award for a terrible painting I entered in the Sparking the Arts contest! It was ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE! But oh well...it looks good on a college application lol...AND I just paid all my stuff for National English Honor's Society! SO next month, I'll get to be inducted! :D

I am SOOOOOOOO rambling right now, but, I like it because I haven't blogged in FOREVER! And you can only put so much stuff on a Facebook status and I feel more comfortable with this because less people see it. I have missed this thing so much! And I still don't like the design of it >:( . I want something that is ME! And it's VERY hard to do that lol.....I'll probably keep searching though lol....well I'mma bout to go! You probably got tired of reading by now...soooooooooooo like bye and junk!(:

Drama Drama Drama

Ok, I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO sorry for not posting until now! I actually have a LIFE! Like, seriously, how weird is that?! I've been busy with band, drama, and school. I'd love to tell you EVERYTHING that has happened since September 14th, but I probably won't even know. but anyways, I basically wanted to tell you how the drama club has been. It is totally NOT the same as last year. You probably DON'T want to get me started about the problems with it, but anyways, we went to competition and I went to state for my monologue, but not Katlyn's and my song. And state was a BLAST! I probably liked it more this year than last year. I really hated taking a huge group with us (mostly because A LOT of the people get on my nerves) but it had some good advantages. It gave me a chance to stay away from our group as much as possible to meet some AMAZING people! I LOVE drama people! And, now we are doing "A Christmas Carol" and it has surprisingly been really good! We have one more performance Sunday, and I just realized, that I'm not gonna cry over ANYONE not being in a play next year. Is that seriously how much I hate the people? I mean, there's some people I'll miss, but none that I'll cry over, like I did with Myra last year. Then I was thinking about my senior year play, and I was thinking of only Katlyn and I. We are the only ones in our grade that act (besides Patty, but she mostly does it for competition). I will be crying like a baby on my last performance! I will miss it so much! But, if I stick to my plan, I'm planning on going to college to be an actor, but it won't be like high school drama club. And now I feel like I'm rambling so I'll leave you now. OH! I'm also thinking about playing the cymbals next year in band! :D

Byyyeeeee homeskittles! Ooops, I mean homeskillets. I have dyslexia (not really).
