Dress rehearsal last night went well, but I had a hard time switching between characters so frequently. I would forget I was Hilary and still be acting like the band geek.
After school today I stayed to help with the set. Hannah gave me a ride home at about 4:30, I think. I've been feeling crappy all day. I complained to my mom about how I hate being moody all the time. She passified me by taking me to rent movies. I'm going to go watch a German comedy with English subtitles, called "Advertising Rules!" I've never heard of it, but it looks interesting.

[5·2·02|4:47pm]  Lily says:

Last night I watched the German movie. It was better than I expected, and I didn't mind the subtitles. Afterwards I read the first chapter of Hiroshima and went to bed.
In guitar class Kim and I played songs together while I sang them. We hadn't done that in a while. In P.E. we had to run around the commons and past the lunch kitchen area, which reaked of pepperoni and an assortment of other nasty school foods. Eeeew.
Opening night for the play is tonight. I feel sick, but not b/c I'm nervous.
I forgot to mention on Monday that when I went to Goodwill I found a couple cd's, and I actually like them. One is from a band called The Mayflies USA and they have a nice mellow sound. The other one is some really weird techno-ish CD with a picture of these two geeky looking guys in star trek type suits. I think it's called Freaks and Icons.
I'm talking to KC and looking at his Barry McBear website. Funny stuff. clicky click.

I am...
hearing The Rentals-Friends of P.

It's Maureen's 15th birthday. I wanted to give her a hug but she & Katie are out of town at a feis [an irish dance competition]. Oh well...Happy b-day mojo!
Opening night was worse than dress rehearsal. People missed cues. I accidently brought my violin with me to the first music class scene, which I wasn't supposed to do. eep
I wrote in my journal a lot while at school, and listened to Mayflies USA. I'm tired and rather subdued today. I haven't eaten much, I'm not all that hungry. The week flew by, and while trying to catch up I lost some sleep.
I've recently developed a stupid crush on someone [who will remain nameless]. Actually it started a while ago & gradually got more intense. I'm trying to ignore it, though. I hate stupid crushes. They drain my energy. Infatuation is dumb, and unrequited love is a bitch. I don't want to deal with that crap. It's all crap!
As far as the site goes, I'm disappointed with myself for not getting some more content up sooner. This place is boring. I will work on that asap.

I am...
hearing nothing.
wearing grey knee-length skirt, STD shirt, argyle socks & converse.
feeling cold.

Today I got up around 9:45am and by 11 Liz was at my house to drop off some clothing of mine and to pick up her cd. We ate breakfast in my kitchen and then she went to sleep in my room while our parents talked & I took a shower.
After Liz left Laura called. Laura goes to art college in Portland, Oregon & she comes up to visit her family every once in a while & we hang out. She picked me up at approx 12:15 and we picked up lunch at Arby's & ate at her house. Then we went to Goodwill and I found a cool skirt [which I decided to wear today] & a dress & an apron. I got a couple new cd's too but I haven't had a chance to listen to them yet.
Then we went to the Youth Fair. People on the stage were singing country music so Laura and I clasped hands and started dancing on the grass. Fun fun. We walked around & looked at animals, and then we looked at the artwork. There were some really interesting paintings and sketches.
It was really cold at the fair and I was wishing I hadn't put on my new skirt. It's windy today. We went to a food stand and Laura had a hamburger and I had a blueberry muffin and she brought me home. It's 45 minutes later and I'm still freezing.
Tonight is the 3rd and final night of FAME. I'm glad it will be over. I'm supposed to be there at 7. Gotta get ready.

I am...
hearing The Special Goodness-Fatigue.
wearing jeans, a blue tanktop, and a grey sweater.
feeling tired, hungry and lonely.
[5·5·02|5:27pm]  Lily says:

I cut my hair. It used to hang down near the middle of my back, now it's just past my shoulders. I don't like the way it hits my shoulders, it's bugging the crap out of me. I'm going to cut it shorter soon.
Last night was the last performance of FAME. My family came to see it. So did Liz and her friend Emily. Backstage Aaron followed people around with KC's camera. During one conversation, KC and I said "magically delicious" at the same time and he jinxed me. He wouldn't say my name so I couldn't talk. Then I went on stage and said my lines. When I came back KC and Aaron were glaring at me. They let it slide, though. How nice.
After the play most of the cast went to Denny's. I stayed for quite a while. I got home around 12:30am and talked to my sister Sheila. She went home a while later. I went in my room, watched the last half of "Someone Like You" [an ok movie] and went to bed around 2am.
For some reason my middle finger on my right hand is swollen and my knuckles hurt. I don't know why. It was like that when I woke up. Maybe I punched something in my sleep. It's making it difficult to type.
Funny joke: What is a pirate's favorite letter? AAarrrr.

I am...
hearing Saves the Day-The Way His Collar Falls.
wearing black pants, blue "U.S. Marshal" shirt.
feeling dumb b/c I'm infatuated again.
thinking crushes are stupid and should die.
[5·6·02|5:36pm]  Lily says:

At lunch Anne told me that a friend of hers asked about me after seeing the play. I guess he asked her if I was single. I remember him from a couple years ago when he was a senior and I was a freshman. I was really surprised when she told me this, I'd never have guessed that he would take an interest in me. I don't know if I'm going to do anything about it, though.
Some people didn't even notice that I cut my hair. Those who did told me they liked it. I still want to make it shorter.
After school Amee called me and asked me to come over. I sat on her bed & drew her a picture. Her cat had kittens a little while ago. There was a grey one with big, sad eyes. I think my mom is considering letting me keep it, yay.
She had pretty floral curtains in her room. When I told her I liked them she said she hated them, and she'd give them to me but they go with the house. Damn landlords. After not too long some of her friends came to pick her up so they could go get stoned, and I walked home and changed out of my jeans because the bottoms were all wet from walking in the grass.
My bottom lip is chapped and it's driving me nuts.

I am...
hearing Weezer-Holiday.
wearing jeans, green t-shirt & pink toothbrush bracelet.
feeling bored.
thinking yay, dance on Friday.
[5·7·02|6:37pm]  Lily says:

There's a dance on Friday. You're supposed to dress alike w/the person you're going with. I'm ignoring that and going by myself, most likely.
After school Mark gave me a ride home. Andy had his window down, and we were listening to Enya[?!]. Mark started laughing b/c my hair was flying around, and he said it looked as if it went with the music. lol
Maureen & Katie and I went for a walk around the neighborhood. We saw Andrew riding his bike in the church parking lot. I asked him to do a "tailwhip". He did it, and we clapped. I asked him who's in his 3rd period band class and we got to talking about the band he & Justin are in. He told us the name but I forgot it already. It was some weird word he made up. He invited us to hang out with them while they "jam" tonight at 7 @ the church. I asked him if it would be a church event we were attending and he said yes but we wouldn't be involved with it. Mo and I agreed to go. We figured if it gets too churchy we'll walk back. It's only a block away.
My mom is letting me keep one of Amee's kittens. The one I want is grey w/little stripes. She's the loner of the group, her siblings bite each other while she watches from a safe distance. ;) I don't know what to name her. I really like the name Jonas, but that's a boys name. Maybe I'll copy Holly Golightly from Breakfast at Tiffany's and just call her "Cat". Hm...if anyone has any suggestions, please let me know via the form at the bottom of the page. I will not consider anything like "poop" or "jerkface" [Aaron and KC] so don't bother to send me that shiznit.

I am...
hearing Saves the Day-Jodie.
wearing jeans, bowling t-shirt & green sweater.
feeling amused.
thinking of names for my kitty.
[5·8·02|7:38pm]  Lily says:

After school I went & picked up my kitty from Amee's house. I'm still trying to decide what to name her. Right now I am considering Wepeel [wee wee, weepie], Enid, and Beatrix [bee, bee bee, beatie]. I'm still open to suggestions. I should ask her what she wants.
Kitty says: "fglpllllpppp;oplpolppp pyt 888888jjjjjjjjj"
She typed that herself...impressive.
Kitty has to live in my room b/c my two older cats hiss at her. She sniffed around my room this afternoon. She likes my bed. She also likes to claw at the mosquito netting that hangs from my ceiling and surrounds my bed. Bad kitty.
Tonight I have to finish reading Hiroshima & do a dumb worksheet. Then I'm going to watch Gummo. Kitty will watch it with me.

[5·8·02|8:06pm]  Lily says:

Aaron says he'll take pictures of me, so maybe there will be a picture page sometime soon. ;)

I am...
hearing my mom talking.
wearing jeans cut off below the knee, striped shirt & black sweater.
feeling sick & bored.
thinking about homework.
[5·11·02|2:44pm]  Lily says:

Brief summary of the last couple days...
Wednesday night I watched Gummo. It was very good, and very disturbing. I'm now scared for the safety of my cats. I forgot what I did on Thursday. I think that's when I decided on naming my kitty Wepeel.
Yesterday we had our cast party for FAME during 6th period. We played a game and I won pink hairspray. Then there was a pep assembly, which was entertaining in that I watched the soon-to-be graduates in front of me screaming and jumping up and down like 5 year olds at Chuck E Cheeses.
After school I finally gave Maureen her birthday present [her birthday was on the 3rd]. I had bought a little notebook and re-decorated the front. On the inside of the back cover I drew a picture of Maureen and wrote "happy 15th". I put it in a nice bag w/2 pens & a card with a monkey on it. I told her now that she's 15 she'll need a journal to write about all her teenage angst.
Later on she and I put on our matching FIRTH shirts we found at Goodwill and went to the twin-themed dance. It was an ok dance, but they played too much rap [as always]. Most the music was awkward to dance to, so Maureen and I ended sitting in the courtyard a lot. Many people asked us what FIRTH meant.
Our definition of FIRTH: 1) someone w/a lisp saying "furs" or "first" 2)Colin Firth, the actor guy we've seen in Pride and Prejudice and Bridget Jones' Diary.
I lost about 5-6 pounds within the last week. Right now I'm wearing some pants I haven't worn in a long time. Crazyness. Maybe my lack of eating resulted in the weakening of my immune system and that's why I feel sick. Maybe I was already sick & that's why I haven't been hungry. Hm.

I am...
hearing nothing.
wearing jeans, white tanktop & green sweater.
feeling tired.
thinking I don't want to go to school tomorrow.
[5·12·02|9:45pm]  Lily says:

I just printed out my essay for English. I think it sucks but it should get a passing grade.
Last night I went and saw Liz as an orphan in "Annie". It was a good show. Afterwards I congratulated her. Then she said, "See, wasn't that so much better than FAME?" I hit her and she said, "Oh, but you were good."
Today Sheila, Aaron and Gage came down from Olympia to hang out for Mother's Day. It was actually nice today. It got to about 80 degrees, which is unusual. I enjoyed it. Gage [my 7 yr old nephew] really liked Wepeel. When they were leaving he said, "Gee, I wish I could borrow your kitty for a little while". I had to remind him that he has two cats at home and they're nice, too. He said, "Yeah, but they're not like your kitty". Can't argue with that.

I am...
hearing Pedro the Lion-Bad Diary Days.
wearing blue pants, blue striped shirt.
feeling fed up.
thinking Aaron needs to go get attached to someone else.
[5·13·02|5:43pm]  Lily says:

Today in English we watched Atomic Cafe, it was funny. I had caffeinated tea this morning and by 3rd period I was really hyper. In aerobics we had "relaxation day" where we lie in the dark and listen to nature sounds. Kim and I talked instead and people told us to be quiet.
6th period I went to ask Aaron if he wanted to go see Westside Story next weekend & I overheard KC & Blake & Kevin making sarcastic comments about how I ditched him last weekend. I asked Aaron what he had told them and he said he hadn't said anything bad about me. I told him I was tired of him making me out to be the bad guy & he said he hadn't been. I asked him if he wanted to see the play and left to sit by myself. He followed me and we talked a bit.
After school I rode the bus with Amee to see her new house, it's very nice. I walked home in the rain and took a nap with Wepeel.
I just read Aaron's blog. I cannot believe this shit.
Message to Aaron: I never made plans with you for last weekend, therefor I did NOT blow you off. There was obviously some miscommunication going on...I don't know why you thought we had plans. I was busy all weekend. I'm tired of you getting all angry at me & telling everyone how bad of a friend I am and then denying it & acting like you don't know what I'm talking about. This is dumb. Get your act together. Save your 7 bucks because we are going to see that damn play this weekend. I'm not bailing.

I am...
hearing the Special Goodness-Pay No Mind.
wearing jeans & boyscout shirt.
feeling hungry.
thinking about sleeping.
[5·14·02|6:00pm]  Lily says:

Aaron told me he had missread an e-mail I sent him so he thought we had plans, and he apologized for freaking out. Thanks Aaron.
Maladroit [4th =w= album] came out today, I might be able to go get it sometime this week. My mom said she'd buy it for me to acknowledge my good grades. yay
Last night I started watching Requiem for a Dream. That's one crazy movie. Around 11pm I turned it off before the end to go to sleep, then Wepeel woke up and started attacking me. She has a fascination with my eyelashes, so she jumped on my face and scratched my nose. She kept me up until midnight and I felt really crappy this morning.
After school Kim gave me a ride home & she told me I could probably get away with taking a few weeks off this summer if I worked at the Levi outlet where she works. I'm considering it.
I studied a couple hours for my History test & I'm tired. Now I will finish the new layout & finally write bios for Aaron & KC's blogs. Tonight I'll probably start reading Fahrenheit 451 for English & finish watching Requiem for a Dream. Hopefully Wepeel won't be a dork & I'll go to bed early.

[5·14·02|9:38pm]  Lily says:

New layout. I think it's boring...

I am...
hearing Weezer-Burndt Jamb.
wearing jeans & sleeveless shirt.
feeling super happy.
thinking yay.
[5·15·02|6:59pm]  Lily says:

This layout sucks, doesn't it? I will change it soon...
School was okay today. I think I did ok on my History test. At lunch it was nice enough to go outside & I talked with Aaron & KC while they tortured ants.
After school I came home & practiced guitar. Then Bryon & Robert Denman came over. We talked for a while & played with Wepeel. Then they left & my mom told me we could go get Maladroit. Happy happy day. Maladroit kicks the Green Album's ass, in my opinion. I already know half the songs, I downloaded them a long time ago when they were in very early stages...Burndt Jamb and Death & Destruction didn't have words yet. Now that they've changed them a bit & added lyrics they're even neater.
I started reading Fahrenheit 451 last night & I like it a lot already. My dad likes Ray Bradbury novels & I think we have a couple, so I'm probably going to read those too.
I have to go do the dishes...but I don't care coz I'm in such a super mood.

I am...
hearing Saves the Day-Jodie.
wearing jeans & grey striped shirt.
feeling sluggish.
thinking yippee it's Friday.
[5·17·02|4:04pm]  Lily says:

Yesterday my parents went to an Eddie Money concert. I was bored so I went to Liz's house to hang out with her & her friend Jessica. Liz made rice krispie treats & shaped them into pyramids for her math class. Then we watched Ocean's 11 & ate salad. I came home around 9:30pm, read Fahrenheit 451 while Wepeel jumped all over my bed, then I went to sleep.
This morning Andrew forgot to pick me up for school. I woke up my dad so he could take me. There was a traffic jam because of an accident on the freeway & my dad & I fought the whole way there. He's a grumpy dork when he first wakes up.
I was chosen by one of my teachers to be someone to participate in "Link", this deal where the older kids do stuff with freshman to help them adapt to High School. I went to the meeting and our asst principle had us stand up and play Simon says. Then he and a counselor kept talking about how good this program would be. I swear they said "cool" and "really great" 5 times each. The next meeting is going to be a "play day" next Friday; I'm not going.
I came home from school and I ate a bunch of ice cream. My mom's going to go to the movie store in a couple minutes & I think I'll go with her. I'm also going to finish a new layout. Everyone liked the last layout, but I'm not reviving Gumby just yet...maybe in a while.

I am...
hearing Radiohead.
wearing Saves the Day shirt & plaid tan colored pants.
feeling content.
thinking ya, movies & ice cream.
[5·19·02|1:01pm]  Lily says:

The new layout would be up already if geocities hadn't shut down yesterday. Grr...
Friday night I watched Welcome to the Dollhouse. The girl has a crush on this guy in a band & he had really short legs. It looked funny when he played his guitar. It was a good movie.
Last night Aaron, KC & Erika came over. They played with Wepeel, and KC decided that he's going to re-name her Monty. Monty's a boys name, but whatever floats his boat, I guess. We went to see Westside Story, and it was very good. When Chino shot Tony I swear everyone in the audience jumped. Then we went to the Matrix in time to see the last band. We missed the good bands & there was barely anyone still there. We stayed anyway & afterwards we stood around in an alley, conversing and dancing around & whatnot. I got home around midnight & watched the beginning of the Dead Poets Society & fell asleep.
Liz is going to come over this afternoon & we're going to watch movies & eat ice cream. I really want to take a walk, too; it's cloudy but it rained last night so it smells really good outside.

I am...
hearing Radiohead.
wearing blue striped shirt & blue pj pants.
feeling tired.
thinking of sleep.
[5·21·02|8:36pm]  Lily says:

New Layout! Liz & my mom both asked me if the girl in the pic was me. Wha?! I don't look anything like Kirsten Dunst.
After school yesterday I went to Liz's house. She & Emily and I watched Donny Darko. That is one strange film. There were some really funny parts, but most of it was kinda creepy. The end was rather confusing. Liz & Emily got into a fight over it. "No, time travel is impossible." "But there's that one..." "Nooo!" It was hilarious.
I didn't get much sleep last night & I was grumpy at school. I didn't eat much either, which didn't help. After school I went with Marc, Andy & Elyse to Dairy Queen & we had "brownie earthquakes". That made me feel better. Then we went to Goodwill. Elyse got the coolest shoes.
I was talking on the phone with Aaron & he said he wants to take a picture of me in some field of yellow flowers. I said I would, but I can just imagine my allergies flaring up & the pictures will be of some freak with a swollen face.

I am...
hearing Weezer-The Good Life.
wearing jeans, blue shirt & black sweater.
feeling frazzled.
thinking about my hair.
[5·22·02|7:18pm]  Lily says:

Today in history class we discussed espionage, & then we watched an episode of M*A*S*H. Back when I had cable I watched that show almost every night. I miss tv sometimes.
After school my mom took me to get a haircut. Now it's above my shoulders. I decided I didn't like it. Once I got home I freaked out and started crying. I'm going to have to change it somehow. In the meantime, I figured out that if I wear it half back it's kind of cute...but jeez who really cares anyway? It's my freaking hair, that's all. The world doesn't revolve around my hair...or does it?
I'd really like to be hosted. Anyone looking for a hostee, or know of any neat domains? Please let me know.

[5·23·02|5:18pm]  Lily says:

I'm cold and grumpy and I dislike school a lot right now. blah blah, I'm in a bad mood. Good thing Wepeel's here to make me feel better. She's such a kickass little kitty. She needs a middle name. I like Cecilia...I dunno...
By the request of Laura I'm going to start a poetry page. It won't have my poetry b/c I suck and it's embarassing. I'll take poetry from anyone who's willing to share it. I might also include other forms of artwork. Yeah, it'll be an arty thing. So hurry up and send me stuff!

[5·24·02|4:23pm]  Lily says:

We had early dissmissal today. After 6th period Aaron got his camera out of his car & took a pic of me w/my huge geeky glasses. I think I blinked. :(
Sheila & Aaron H. are going hiking & stuff this weekend so Gage is staying with us. He wants to play his pokemon video game all the freaking time. I'm glad I'm not 7 anymore.
I'm going to go help Tiffany make a blog. Ciao sucka.

[5·25·02|9:32pm]  Lily says:

This morning Weewee kitty was trying to eat my hair & woke me up...then I couldn't get back asleep. >:(
Mom, Dad, Gage & I went to Mt. Rainier today. There was snow all over & it was misting the whole time. I bought a one-time camera & we took some pictures. Off the road were some huge yellow lilies. We pulled over & my dad took of a picture of me in the lilies. The ground was really muddy and soft & we kept sinking in it. When I tried to walk back to the car my right shoe got stuck in the mud and came right off. I had to balance on one foot while Gage went back and got my shoe.
Yesterday I made Tiffany's blog. It doesn't have much content & I made the graphics on her computer, so they're just a couple jpg's I made in approx 10 minutes. I also put a pic of her on her bio page but she got scared that someone would stalk her so I took it off today. I'm hoping that sometime soon I'll have a better pic to put on my bio page...one with my face maybe. ;)

Last night my mom freaked out on me for being on the computer [?!] and I'm not sure if I can get on it w/out her freaking out again. I'm at Tiffany's right now.
I'm having such an exciting day. So far I've taken a shower, done the dishes & cleaned my room. Amee wants to see Star Wars tonight but when I called her the number was disconnected. Liz saw it last night with Nick [ooooh how cute] and she hated it. Mo & Katie on the other hand thought it was better than episode 1. Hm...I'll just have to see for myself.

Yes, I'm officially grounded of my computer for a week. Holy crap. This means I won't be blogging that much & I might not respond to emails right away.
I'm at Maureen & Katie's. They're going to start a blog. I'll link it as soon as they're done.
