I'm finally opening this page. I started it a while ago but changed it a few times, b/c I kept coming up with shitty layouts. This one is probably just as bad as the others, but oh well!
We had early release today and no play practice. This was the last day of Junior Business Week, which makes me so happy. We had to do a business simulation all week. If I had a real business it would die a horrible death, very quickly. I'm glad this was fake.
I'm not sure what I'm doing this weekend other than going to my grandparents house. I will most likely hang around my house and be bored and go for walks to the river, or try to learn songs on my guitar until my fingers feel like they're going to fall off. I don't have cable anymore so I can't watch SNL. Maybe I'll clean my room. Gee, I have the best weekends.
Speaking of the best weekends, I actually had a really good one last week. Saturday my parents took Liz & I to Olympia to see the Procession of the Species. It was a crazy parade. I want to be in it next year so I can dance around in a unitard with big feathers or something. That night Liz and I spent the night at my sister Sheila's house. The next day my dad picked us up and we went to Seattle to see Saves the Day. Audio Learning Center and Pretty Girls Make Graves opened, and I liked them both. Andrea from PGMG has great stage presence. Once STD came out it became very hard to breathe, due to everyone trying to push forward therefore crushing everyone already in the front. I think I almost passed out a couple times.

Saturday I went to my grandparents house. We went to some overcrowded restaurant, where my elders proceeded to quietly make jokes about the overweight people. I sat and looked out the window, and they kept telling me to eat more.
School was ok today, we had to run around the parking lot in P.E. It was pretty outside so I didn't mind. During lunch I sat outside with Aaron and I made a daisy chain, which I gave to my 5th period teacher.
I got home from play rehearsal at 5. Dress rehearsal is tomorrow night, and I realized I didn't have all of my costume yet, so I went to Goodwill.
The play is FAME [not the musical version, just a normal play] and I am two characters. Hilary, the rich snobby ballerina, and a nameless geeky person who plays the violin. At Goodwill I bought an argyle sweater, thick rimmed glasses and a third pair of leg-warmers in case another dancer might need them. I also found a cute shirt in the boys section & got it for 99 cents. There were some cool old lady shoes there, but they were too small. :(

This morning I was getting a bagel to take to school for lunch and my mom said, "No wonder you're not losing any weight, look what you're eating." I wanted to slap her.
School was ok. Today in guitar class Amee kept calling me a "ho", so I starting playing "Say it Aint So" and sang "I'm not a ho-wo-wo...you're drug is a heartbreaker...". It was funny at the time.
In P.E. some guy came to take pictures of us doing our step-aerobics. They said it was for the school calendar next year...I think he just wanted pictures of sweaty girls.
Tonight is dress rehearsal. I'm supposed to be at the school in an hour. I am not looking forward to wearing my "Hilary" costume, which consists of a leotard, tights, and legwarmers. I like the legwarmers, but not the rest.
