the boring leading the bored

here am i, drinking water out of a coffee mug because all the other glasses are dirty. im tired, im not really sure why im not sleeping. my voice is shot to heck from screaming/singing beatles and les mis in joe's car. my stomach feels weird because i ate a whole lot of crazy crap today. here's a sample: lots of pez, ben and jerry's fudge brownie ice cream (in an uber-cute little cup with a little shovel-like spoon included), and a porkchop. that's a very small sample.
today was pretty fun!!! after school sara and rojo came over and we had smoothies (with pineapple!) and then rojo and dad played ghost recon and me and sara sat in my room and talked. she's a great kid, i really like her. then we sat down to dinner (they stayed) and joe suddenly comes to the door to pick me up for the choir concert. i send him to go get sam and i scarf dinner, then rojo drives me to school and drops me off... joe and sam and anna managed to get there before the singing started. and it was pretty entertaining. short, though. but it was cool.... although i must say to the altos: i am disappointed in you guys... the sopranos were jamming, you guys were statues. that was lame. but it was still cool... "elvis," your performance was terrific, brooke weirick, you are made for country music (look at that name!), andrew.... i am in awe. jacque, that was pretty sweet too. after the show, anna abandoned us to go home, and we (me, sam and joe) decided we needed to do something really cool and emo. after joe refused to do a happening, we decided we needed to hit walmart. so we did... we hit it hard. there was lots of plastic tableware that made me excited, but joe dragged me on and so we bought the aforementioned ice cream. then we went to the parking lot of s&k menswear, sat on the island and ate the ice cream. we had a grand old time, and then we decided it was time to go see sam's rich house. and we did! she has a workout room... and a MOVIE THEATRE. it was wicked sweet. we decided i needed to bring ddr over some time. and then we sat around and then joe harassed people on my screen name. then we went home.
note: during all time spent in the car, the three of us sang along to one of the following songs: maxwell's silver hammer, let it be, hey jude, polythene pam, you never give me your money, mean mr. mustard, the beggars, one day more, the ABC cafe, and at the end of the day. we all suck at singing and we all sang really loud and excited-like. it was awesome.
so i think thats about it. tomorrow is a big day... i should go sleep.
music: duh. the beatles and les mis.

hi kids.
so today has actually been relatively slick. i have had multiple successes.
1. toys r us
i went to toys r us to return a birthday present, and got back 5 bucks instore credit. so, after much deliberation, i bought the following: a panda pez dispenser, pez refills, and cute veggietales bandaids. all that for five bucks of NOT my own money. and im eating the pez right now.
2. dress
i have this white dress that one of my aunts wore to prom in the late 70s/early 80s. and its WAY pretty. the only thing is... it's rather transparent. so today me and my mother made a slip for it and sorta built it into the dress. it does the job and it took like, 30 minutes. i might wear it to the dubbies... but i honestly cant decide. theres still my uber-cool ::prom dress::
3. book
ive been reading two of them. the power of one, which is pretty ok. but required. i'm also reading the sisterhood of the traveling pants. and let me say, that is a way cool book. it's not too brilliant. or philisophical. its not a classic. it's just a good story about 4 teenage girls, my age. i recommend it to all the ladies out there. i find i can identify with something in all the girls. its very cool. plus... it features pants.
4. music: LES MISERABLES, DSHS EDITION!!!!!!!
it's soooo uber-neato. i could cry. my personal favorite tracks: the confrontation between javert and valjean (ask sam vestey how he feels about that scene. i pretty much share his sentiment), the gate scene (it was the best when phil fell through the gate), inkeeper's song... holy crap i love the whole thing.
5. i think im done. uhhhh.... yeah.
DUBBIES TOMORROW!

You are Beast!
You are brilliant and extremely clever. You can
handle almost any problem swiftly and
efficiently. You are devoted to philosophy and
are always up for a good discussion.
Sometimes, though, your anger gets the best of
you and you upset those whom you care about.
Which X-Men character are you most like?

the remix:
something beautiful fell out of a tree today.
no it wasnt the cottonwood fluff.
it was, dare i say it, better?
it was some good sense, finally come along to smack me upside the head. i now realize that the people i care about are way cooler than anything strange or beautiful i'll ever see. love is the true work of art.
music: sinatra, coldplay... uh... the cure?
and, omg, listened to our performance today. AMAZING.

today...
un jour de beacoup de sentiments...
good: i made it alive. after school anna, stella, sam and me went to ritters. we walked. in the rain. we got very wet but we had a lot of fun. we ate the ice creams and saw jay in his incredibly attractive uniform... sorry jay, but the hat does nothing for you, even with the slick new haircut. but hey, work is work. and you made a darn good glacier. and thanks for the cherry on top! after ice cream, the girls came back home with me and we played ddr and talked.
bad: the world (and by "the world" i mean "high school") is a genuinely scary and sad place. last night, someone i know fairly well and just love attempted suicide. she failed, thank God, but it's just so.... scary. and sad. i wonder what i could have done about it? and what i can do to keep it from happening to someone else? i hope she will be okay. i also found out today that people at my school have sex! a lot! and they get hiv... its just sad. i suppose i always sorta knew it was happening but id never really come to terms with it... i mean, there is a life-threatening disease getting passed around, here. and it just scares and saddens me. i know im being redundant, by the way. it makes me feel good about myself that ive retained some innocence so far... i still wish i didnt know about this stuff... but i have a feeling blind eyes arent going to solve the problem. but then, im not going to be able to solve the problem anyway.
i feel small... yet i still cant get over my stupid self.
c'est la vie. tomorrow is another day, i guess. i suppose ill just do what i can.
music: les mis in my, head, fif, the cure

so how bout never updating this creature?
wow i dont even know where to start.
les mis, y'all.
<3.
i love that show.
i miss it.
i love my les mis kids
and i miss THEM even more!
hugs and kisses to (in no particular order): sam, stella, andrea, jay, caroline, mariko, miyoung, matt, jill and everyone else whose name im too lazy to type.
man i am suffering from withdrawl/seperation anxiety... that play was amazing beyond amazing.
on a random note, this slogan generator came up with this for me:
Feel The Raw Naked Lauren Of The Road.
thats pretty weird. ANYWAY...
i really have no words for the play but that i miss it. it makes me a little sad. and tired.
but things should be ok cause us girls are visiting jay at the ritters tomorrow and that should be cool.
went running today.
with ben.
i am very very out of shape and it was sorta tiring but it was fun.
interestingly enough, i have so little to say.
i love you all.
music: the ohio song!
tell my uncle
tell my aunt
got my teeth in nice and straight
chicken nuggets in my pants
im on my way to the buckeye state!
...stupid. stupid dummy.

man it has seriously been forever and a half. and a whole lot of crap has happened too. it has been some crazy times.
some words of wisdom: nobody is safe from teenage drama.
something ive been worrying about for a long long time is being resolved, which is good. no... not resolved. changed.
i had a birthday. it was really awesome. i had a party and it was fun. and also my familky came to visit. heres a short sampling of the gifts ive received:
- a photo album full of pictures of jay cullen
- lots of hello kitty fun things
- a book of illustrated beatles lyrics
- yummy gift certificates
- a blowdryer and curling iron!!!!!
- new bedsheets
- cds! the cure, the clash, chicago (i hadnt realized they were all c's!) and a GREAT cd miyoung burned for me. i heart her
- jokeless creamsicles
- hooded pants
- 45s
ok that was kinda long. and im done. but yeah.
oh... and a rock. and it's accompanying hug.
anyway, days have passed now; days of laughter, drama, singing, sleeping, working, crying, and dancing. and yes, all those things DID actually happen. being sixteen is suuuuuure exciting!
rehearsals are going well. its fun. its just a lot of work. its wearing me out.
went to barnes and noble with andrea tonight. it was fun, though short. carlo was there working, and the two of them coerced me into buying a sinatra cd. which is fine cause its awesome.
uhhhh.... ::drools::
music: sinatra, of course.
