I just got my license(!)

Which is great!

No I can go places with my friends!
Wait... no I can't. Joshua's Law.

But I can go to the game tonight!
Wait.... Daddy won't let me.

I can drive myself to school!
Wait... No, I'm going to Emily's tomorrow, so I'll be going to school with Geoff and home with her.

So... What can I do?
-I can drive to and from school on days that Geoff has to work after school.
-I can drive myself to Kayla's birthday party on Saturday... If my parents let me
-I can drive to work on Sunday.

Woo-hooo.... my life sucks.

I WANT TO DO SOMETHING!!

Everybody is always like "Being able to drive is FREEDOM!", And all that crap.
Well, I guess that's true... but only if you kill your parents.

Grrr. Seriously, right now, I'm no more free than Joe, who doesn't even have is Learner's Permit yet.

When I got home, my dad is like "So where are you going to go?"
And I said , "The basketball game."
"When?"
"Tonight."
"Oh, NO YOU'RE NOT!"
"It's only in Murphy."
"OH NO YOU ARE NOT!!!!!"

Great. He tells me I can drive to my grandma's house, if I want to.
Woopie. I've driven there a bazillion times without one of them with me. She lives 3/10s of a mile away.

Groan.

Dental Floss and Rejection

That's what I keep having dreams about.

It's keeping me up and I don't like it one bit.

I wonder why?
It's so weird....

I'd love to hear some theories...

Christmas Concert

I just got home, and it was pretty good.

I think we played really well, and I had fun.

That was the first time we heard the music with the percussion parts too, and it was SOO COOL!

I love percussion.

We played:
Jingle Bells Forever- This song is like Stars and Stripes Forever and Jingle Bells had a drunken one night stand. This ugly baby is the result.

Carol of the Bells- This song is very cool. It was the hardest one we played, and I love the way all the parts work together.

Polar Express- This had the Overture, Believe, Hot Chocolate (awesome), something else, and Spirit of the Season. They were all fun/really pretty.

Nutcracker- this had 4 songs from the Nutcracker inculding the Arabian Coffee song and the Russian Trepak Dance, and ahhh it was my favorite piece of music.

Hallelujah Chorus- From Handel's The Messiah. When Mr. Rittenhouse was announcing this song, he told the audience it was from a HUGE piece called The Messiah, which has a Christmas section and an Easter section. And I turned to Emily and said "So you can play it for three months straight". She was like, "Wow, REALLY huge." haha.

A Christmas Festival- This was a medley of lots of Christmas songs, and it was cool It had an awesome ending, which is why Mr.Rittenhouse picked it for our finale.


Don't you wish you had gone? YES.

I Want Some Cliche Ice Cream

Ya know how in movies, when a girl is upset, she eats ice cream?

That's how I feel today.

Ignorance IS bliss, in some cases.

I hate sounding all emo and sad, but I didn't have a very good day.

Actually, I had a great day, I had a crappy 4th block, bcause I was talking to Emily, and the more we talked aobut our topic (which isn't important enough to post) the moe I had to abandon my denial, so I'm sad.

Anyway, tomorrow will be really busy. I have to work in the morning, and I'm going to hav to try to get off early, because our call time is 3:15, and I'm scheduled to work till 3.
So then after the parade, we have toplay the Christmas tree lighting ceremony, and as of now, I don't have any music, and I've never practiced the music, because we didn't have enough copies, but we should tomorrow, so I have to sight read it, which isn't good. And my mom wants to go see Australia after that, so I have to bring, like, 3 different oufits with me.

And our Christmas concert is soon,and we are not ready for it, and I'm really stressed about it.

And now one of my favorite parts of my day is just a reminder ofwhat made me all depressed today.
:(


*sigh*

I guess that's all.

Snow Day

Hey, so I just got home from school, which let out early.

wh-hoo, I guess.

As soon as Geoff and I got out, the snow kind of stopped. Maybe we just drove out of it, but it seemed like it snowed just long enough to get us out of school.

Yup.
And then there was no snow on the ground until we got to like the Robin's Nest-ish area, and then there was more and more snow on the ground and on the trees and stuff, and then by the time we got home, there was like, 2 inches on my car and Geoff and I had a little mini snowball fight.

Now I'm inside, and the sun is coming out, so the snow is probably gonna melt pretty soon anyway.

But I guess it's pretty cool, and now I can just sit around and watch Jerry Springer (haha with Geoff and my dad.

I hope it snows more tonight.
Not that I don't want to go to school, because I actually get really stir-crazy when I have to sit around with nothing to do, but because I LOOOOVVVVVVE SNOW. It's so pretty, and even if I don't end up going out and paying in it, I love it anyway. It makes everything so cozy.

MMMM!!! I think I'm gonna make some hot chocolate. yummmmy!!!

See ya laterz.
