My Oh My What A Beautiful Day Outside

Hello all!!

Today has been another fantabulous day!

This morning I woke up at 9. I did whatever and as I was leaving at 9:25, I ran into Julia and told her that I had to go meet a prof, then go to chapel, then class. She told me there is no chapel on Fridays. I was like "WHAT?! Oh well." Then proceeded to my appointment.

I have an A in German as of now. Yes! Then I filled out an evaluation of my prof. Just saying I liked the interaction and application we do in class, but at times we are overloaded with homework or don't incorporate it. She can tell I put a lot of effort into my work. Which I guess I sometimes do ;)

Then I went and decided to say HI to my advisor. Audrey told me to ask her about her pets. She has a calico cat named Gary (girl! tehe) and a Pudle Pointer named Roosevelt (my favorite President!). We, er, spent about 45 minutes talking!! :) It was fun and put me in a terrific mood! We talked about pets, then travel, a bit about Chaucer, and some other little things. Corner Gas is a show she recommended to me.

Then I had class. I really hadn't read the Pardoner's tale as well as I normally read the Canterbury Tales, so I wasn't totally prepared for class. Luckily we had a discussion panel though! Brianna sat by me. She's super nice! And then when leaving class I was talking to Laura about Canada and she said I'd probably start reciting Chaucer and I said I'd probably do Hamlet and proceeded to say "To be or not to be: that is the question: / Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer / The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, / Or to take arms against a sea of troubles / And by opposing them end them." And Brad was watching and I asked if that was right and he said yeah. Haha.

Yeah, then after lunch I forgot my phone and ID--no idea why--and had to walk back and then met up with Shanna. It was really funny because on my way over to the table, some guy in maroon kept STARING at me! When I walked by I just glanced at him, but he kept looking even as I went by! I told Shanna. And when we left, I just turned and looked at him and he looked beyond this guy in front of him to look and then I was at the wall! It was soo odd!

When I got back to Park, I talked with Rachel. Then I helped Danielle bring stuff to her car and we went to the gas station and then to Livedalen.

Rachel and I made an attempt at getting our peeps in the Mafia, but both were not in their rooms. :( Oh well!

I am excited for Canada! And that Audrey will be watching TVD and Greek!!

Today looks like it could be warm out, but it's really cold outside! I can't believe I walked outside with my jacket unzipped. I so silly. :)

Thanks!
God Bless!

Crushcrushcrush

HELLO ALL!!

I JUST TALKED TO MY CRUSH!!!!!!!!

SQUEE!!!!!!!!!

This is going to sound creepy, which it is, but I just so happened to see my crush walked to BW at 2:35. So I've been watching Glee and cleaning my room and waiting for the chance to talk to him when he got out of class at 3:50. I waited until 3:56, then decided to go walking. Then I ran into Lia! We talked about break and Vampire Diaries.

I got back and walked to the basement with her and told her how I wanted to just talk to my crush. Tehe. When I got back to my room at like 4:10 I happened to see him walking up to the building so I dashed down the hallway and pretended to study the marshmallow mafia board. Then he came in and I was like "Justin, right?" and he was like "Yeah." And he asked my name and we talked Hawk Nelson. I asked him about Crazy Love and he said he thought it was just a single. I told him it was an album and whatever. Then we told each other to have a nice break.

I was sooooooo happy!!

I actually prayed about it, too!! Oh thank you thank you thank you thank, GOD!!!! *hugs*

Now, I feel so selfish...and aware.

Laters!
GOD BLESS!

Forever...and Ever....Is It Really Just Another Crush?

Hello all!

My life is insane! Wow! It's been forever!

Well, let's catch you up to speed. I tried out for One Act and made it!

The initial audition was kind of scary. We went into the Lab Theater in groups of ten and read scripts randomly. I was nervous because Jason and Ella were in my group and they're in Ah, Wilderness (which I should be writing on soon too) and I felt as if my acting couldn't compete with theirs. Anyways, I went up and introduced myself and told them the longest word in the dictionary and the definition.

There I ran into Corrie and met a girl named Sara from Montana.

I made call backs. I was elated.

Call backs were fun, but I am still beating myself up for NOT doing my best. I was nervous and I didn't take the time to read over my speaking part beforehand, which I think totally killed my performance.

Okay, I'm going to get all excited on you and say that one of the directors came up to me and said he liked my shirt (Hawk Nelson). We talked about the band for a little bit and I gave him a high five for liking them. He is the guy I sometimes see along the Park path by Proxy's. We give each other the nice nod and smile. I always feel good when someone does that. Tehe. I saw him at dinner yesterday, too! And brushed his coat twice in the passing (you know what I mean...I was carrying food and had to walk by his chair...). And once I walked right past him and did the whole shebang. He was wearing glasses! I didn't know he had glasses! Cool!

Anyways...I went through all the rooms with five other people and we read scripts and had a blast. Sadly enough, I didn't get to read any of the romance parts...sad...oh well. Theater people are hilarious.

I need to head off to BL(T).

More laters I hope!!
