Wow you guys. Step away from the computer, we're all about to get burned. I'm almost afraid to get online anymore for fear of the nasty Sarah-Betsy exchange. Mind you, Sarah does have some good points. I'll try to see the good in people: Sarah: Loyal friend, open-minded, strong-willed, honest, funny Betsy: great voice, funny, good student Ashley: loving mother, loyal to Brandon, great dancer See? I can do it too! Yay! I hope other people try this. It's good fun. Jolly good fun. Okay, maybe not. Anyway, I just watched Carmen AGAIN! I love that opera! I want to be Kirsten Chavez. You guys are prolley sick of hearing that. Well, go read someone else's blog. Hey Alyse, I liked your blog about how to stay neutral. Thanks for saying I'm a beautiful dancer. That reminds me, GOILS and you know who you are, I DON'T THINK I'M TALENTED! How many times do I have to say that for you to get the point? I have low self-confidence and I think I'm mediocre singer, and okay dancer, and a kinda poor actress. But all that can be worked on! When you say I have no talent it brings my self-confidence even lower. And there are others who say I'm a show-off in ballet. Sorry, but I've been taking ballet since I was three, and most of the people in that class have only been taking a year or two. I just have more experience and I dance to the best of my ability. Sorry if you consider that showing off, but I'm certainly not going to hold myself back for a few people. I wear my point shoes because if I don't when I return to the Evansville Dance Theatre in the spring, I'll be horribly out of shape. PLEASE TAKE ONE FINAL NOTE THAT I AM NOT TRYING TO SHOW OFF! Thank you. To quote Sarita... quoting someone else... "I have spoken. All depart." Wednesday, November 26, 2003
Hey Alyse your blog was really touching. I actually was moved to tears. I want the Spednas to have that bond. I hope it isn't to late to fix up the mess we've all made. Sarah, I'm really really sorry I made such a mess out of the whole opera thing. I did have fun alone. It would have been great if we had been there together, but sometimes I can't understand that people sometimes need time apart. I guess that's one of my biggest flaws. I also tend to over react. I know that! I'm working on it, girls, really I am. Sarah, I WAS WRONG! I WAS WRONG TO OVERREACT AND I WAS WRONG TO BLAME IT ALL ON YOU! I HAVE FORGIVEN AND FORGOTTEN and hopefully you can to. THIS IS MY OFFICIAL APOLOGY: I'M SORRY ABOUT THE WHOLE FIGHT, SARAH! And Alyse, you're so right! Emily would be ashamed. Period. I think what we need is to go to our woods in the Penny one last time before the winter really hits hard. We can all see my new car! Sarah, Emily, Alyse, and me. It will be a Spedna reunion, with past conflicts forgotten, hopefully. Sarah, Alyse, Emily, I will call you and see if we can't work something out. We could even go shopping maybe! What do you say to this: Friday or Saturday we go to SCB around 1:00 with our Mafia Uncle and then go to the woods, maybe shop until 6:00 and then possibly see a movie and spend the night at someone's house. Maybe after 5 or 6 we would just go home. We'll figure something out. I love the Spendas and this is my reunion call! SPEDNAS UNITE!!! Tuesday, November 25, 2003
Hey I think this mess with DSG is okay. There is still mucho tension but I think it will wear off. She didn't ruin my night, by the way. I got to spend ample time with Kirsten (Carmen) and I sat with Jack Schriber. It was fun. I'm so sad that it's over. I want to be Carmen! I want to be Kirsten Chavez! She is so pretty and such an amazing singer and so nice and she lives in Orlando! Sigh. I guess I'm stuck being myself, but that's okay too. FYI, this blog is mostly a journal to myself with an occasional message to friends. I'm glad you are reading this (whoever you may be) but you may be bored. Just a warning. It's more to keep track of my life. If I had anything really private to say I would tell my sister or write it down elsewhere. Oh, speaking of Laura, OUR MOPHIA (how do you spell that?) UNCLE IS COMING HOME TONITE! YAYAY HAROLD! YAY HANK! Anyway, she will be home about three oclock in the moring. She's leaving Chicago around 7:30 or 8:00 tonite. I LOVE MY MOPHIA UNCLE! Today was a good day. I was sick, so I got up and took Taylor to school, told Ms. Pate I was going home, and slept until 5:00. Wow! I guess I must be really sick. I feel a little better now though strangely still tired. Hmm. Crazy. Well, I gotta go. I may be going to a family party, altough that's the last thing I feel like doing right now. My cousins Sarah and Aden and my dad and my Aunt Laura are having a birthday bash together. (Almost our whole family was born in fall/early winter.) Well, I gotta go. Oh yeah, I bought my new car. Well, my parents did and I'm paying them back slowly. Now I only owe them $1,000 because my grandparents gave me $100 for the first payment and I gave them my last paycheck for another $100. Yay! I love Natasha! I love all my wives. Ttyl. Saturday, November 22, 2003
I have now edited this angry blog. By the way, they are very famous and ALL of the STARS have sung in New York City. Look up Kirsten Chavez on the internet. I did. She is much more famous than I even knew. I have to go now. More later. Tuesday, November 18, 2003
Ah! Why am I bloggin? No time! Gosh these things are so addictive! I have a huge math test to study for! Grr! I'm leaving now! Stres, stress, stress! I love all my wives and I may be getting a new car and I wanna go shopping! I guess that's all the important stuff...oh yeah my g-parrents and italian cousin are coming tomorrow gotta clean too more lata! Bye! Sunday, November 16, 2003
Grrr. I tried to sign up for lunch all weekend and it wouldn't let me. Maybe it will now. I'll try. Anyway, I was at work tonite. I got two tips. Yay! for tips! Anyway, at like ten till 9 Beth and Dee came in and told Katie and I they would finish working if we wanted to go home. Random, but I was like HELL YEAH! So we left. Jim (my idiot boss) scheduled me to work on Sunday after I told him I couldn't go in. Dee wasn't scheduled and didn't ask off, but he didn't schedule her in, so I traded her shifts. If he craps up the scedule, we'll fix it and he'll learn to deal. The meeting this morning was funny. It was like 9 am and we were all crap-A$$ tired. Jim was like "I have a few things, but if anyone has anything they'd like to say first, go ahead." Abby raised her hand and turns out she had created a list of complaints! It was hilarious. And he kept saying, "Oh, oh, yeah, I forgot that. Good point." It was funny. Then Linda this woman who is allegedly illiterate and does nothing (I came in at 2:00 once and the lights weren't even turned on) kept talking about all the work we did and how she had to do everything blah blah ablah. Sad thing is, I'm pretty sure Jim believes her. Oh, well, ho hum. Oh, I hope none of you are planning to do anything with me from Thanksgiving to Christmas because the hours change at the mall and we are now open from 8:00 am to 11:00 pm maximum. This is a problem the day after Thanksgiving seeing as there are only five workers and we need a minimum of six. Someone's working overtime! And guess who's one of the five? Yours truly. Yeah. So I'll keep pretty busy. But Sarita, Candy, Kitty-Cat, Emily Rush, etc. if you wanna go Christmas shopping sometime? We need to plan. We should go to the evening of giving. I get a 20% discount cuz I work at the mall and you all could come with me and give me moneyt and i would buy the stuff for you. Oh, one last thing before I go or forget, whichever comes first: I'm going to take my first ballet calss in 1/2 a year on Friday! I'm so nervous! Wish me luck! Luv you guys! I LOVE MY LUMBERJACK!SARITA YOUR PARENTS ARE BEING BUTTHEADS! AND NOT THE SQUIRRELLS! YAY! LOVE YOU ALL! Friday, November 14, 2003
Tonight was friggin awesome! Terry Becker and friends was so much fun. The Brown sisters were hilarious. One of them forgot the words. Then she forgot the words again in the finale and when her sister sang them right, she goes "SHOW OFF!" Sheryl and Matt were awesome. Sheryl didn't want to follow the Brown act. It was funny. Mr. Becker forgot the words to his song and goes, "Oh, crap I can never remember these words." Then he sang "Never thought I wanted you" instead of "Always knew I wanted you" It was all I could do to keep from cracking up. I saw Ashley and Brandon's baby Harmony. She is so cute! She was just smiling and occasionally looking confused. She never cried or anything. She's adorable! Oh, and Ricky and Matt did a great job on Dancin' Man and we actually got most of the rhythms right for once! Emily was so funny! She sang "Don't Tell Mama" and was sitting on men's laps and stuff. The men would go bright red. It was hilarious. Great job, Emily! Oh, and Ashley was great in "What'll I do" she remembered the words! YAY for Ashley. The rest of us just go "DUM DUM DUM" the whole time, but yeah. That song went as well as we could've hoped for. All in all, the night was a terrific hit. I wish more people I knew had been there. No one could come from my family. OH YEAH! Luther was hilarious too! How could I forget? Instead of clapping, he made us snap for him. His poems were all really short like "YOU BROKE ME." went something like this: "You broke me. Ouch." It was great! The audience loved it, and I have never had more fun singing! Good night all and I just would like to say goodbye like this... "Just when the fun is starting, comes the time for parting. But lets be glad for what's to come. There's so much more embracing still to be done, but time is wasting. Oh well, we'll catch up some other time." Thursday, November 13, 2003
All right, you. That sounds good. I mean, we don't have to be best friends, or even friends. I'm just glad that we both think we should just let eveything be. I completely agree with you. Hey, sorry about what I wrote to Sarah, but that was before I talked to you. You met her at the Lost World play, I just introduced her to you, it wasn't very important. And I thought you were accusing me of blogging bad things about people on your blog, which I thought was hypocritical. However, I looked at the entry again and it wasn't refering to me (I don't think) So sorry about that. I shouldn't jump to conclusions like that. Anyway, let me know whenever I do anything that really pisses you off (PLEASE if I don't know what makes people mad I can't fix it this applies to anyone reading this!), other than that I think we can be cool with each other. I just want you to know that I hope someday we can be friends, and even if we're not I'm glad we've reached what I consider a good agreement. Very sincerely, good night. :-) Wednesday, November 12, 2003
WOW! I have some funny stuff for you, Sarah! Somebody read your blog! (picture that in a sing-song voice) And that certain somebody is pissed. She said no one cares about your blog, but she obviusly does if she took the time to read it. Sarita, remember what you told me when you met her? She accused me of that! It's hilarious! I'm really not trying to be derogitorry, but if someone's standing up for me, you can't really say that they're not. That's like saying "I like cotton candy" and then have someone else tell you "No you don't." If someone hates me for no reason, that I can do nothing about. But if they have a valid reason, I would like to know. Thanks. Sarah, Alyse, Jessica, Anna, Ashley, Mandi, Laine, Catie, Stacie, Keeran, Beth, Clara, Laura, Brittany, Kelly, Tiffany, and Emily Rush, if I've done anything to make you hate me, you'll let me know, right? Of course you will. If I don't know, how can I fix the problem? Love you all lots! Hey y'all! I was supposed to record The West Wing for this guy in the opera and I didn't hit record hard enough. I feel really bad. Oh, well, he'll get over it. Hazard of the trade. ? Maybe not. Today was okay, but I really wish I could've taken the useless hours of some of my classes and used them for after school activities. Do you ever get that feeling? Oh, now i have to do something. Stand back. (She inhales deeply) I AM NOW SHOUTING OUT TO SARITA AND VOLLEY-VOLLEY YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE AND WHAT YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR. ARE YOU F-ING HAPPY NOW?! Wow randomness! I don't know why i was just suddenly angry, well I wasn't but you know how we do. I LOVE YOU ALL FOR READING THIS AND HERE ARE SOME HUGS AND KISSES! xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox This is me, signing off. Good night, and have a pleasant tomorrow. Tuesday, November 11, 2003
 You have an entrancing kiss~ the kind that leaves your partner bedazzled and maybe even feeling he/she is dreaming. Quite effective; the kiss that never lessens and always blows your partner away like the first time. What kind of kiss are you? brought to you by Quizilla I've blogged way too much today. SOMEBODY STOP ME! New Law and Order on in ... NOW!!! I gotta go man! Check it! I just posted a cool quiz from Quizzilla but it won't post it. Oh, well I'll have to tell you myself. I have an entrancing kiss, even though I've never kissed or been kissed. But when I do, watch out! Oh, well, at least that kept me amused for...3 minutes. I need a life. Damn. EDIT: It did post, it one day lata. Ho-hum. I am bored as all get-out. Blogging is not helping. I need to read but can't find the fourth Harry Potter Book! HELP! I still have another math assignment to do. Damn. WHY ARE YOU READING THIS? GET A LIFE! Hooray. I am so fierce! Today was kinda boring cuz of no school. I still haven't done my homework. I need to finish my math, put my cans in the car (for English) finish my Eng. EC project, and finish Shifting Sands (yeah, right!) Today I got up at like 11:00 and then went back into bed at around 12:30 cuz I was cold. I read A Wrinkle In Time for a while, then got up and wandered around calling various people. Yay. Then I went to Tri-State and had a half-hour session with Robin. He is cool. I felt really strong, but then he said "You did fine." Not good, but not bad. I think I'm getting sick, I'm hungry, but I can't eat ya know what I mean? I really want SBC, but would settle for Yen Ching. Somebody save me! Anyone wanna come with me to SBC or YC? No? Okay, then I'll go myself. My mom and I did some funny stuff for my dad's party but I can't write about it now in case he reads this. I'll write it in after the party Sat. Getting off work is harder than it looks. KATIE: "I don't wanna trade shifts, I HATE closing I closed yesterday, whine, whine, whine..." ABBY: "I asked off and I'm going shopping with Lori! Your dad's 50th party can't be THAT important..." LORI: "I'm going shoppin with Abby..." Oops. I'm not supposed to be mean in this blog... maybe I'll just include Sig people in that and I can be mean about everyone else. They'll prolley never read this anyway. Gotta go do math. Fun shiznat. BYE! Monday, November 10, 2003
Quote of the day from Sarita from Destiny's Child "There's plenty of poeple who don't like me, but there's ten times more who love me, and I love myself." This is my profound thought: I am happy. I love my job, I couldn't ask for a cooler school, I get to see my dance friends on Saturdays, Kaplan's over, and I have countless great wives and a family who LOVES ME AND I LOVE THEM! My cousins and neighbors look up to me and I have a car, crappy thought it may be I LOVE YOU FRIDA! I am happy! Yay! Make a joyful noise unto the Lord! Wow! That last entry was too long. No one wants to read this crap. But anyways, today was kind good/kinda bad. Kinda good: I read Alyse's blog and it is the funniest thing eva! I am the WILDEBEAST! HEAR ME ROAR! I had good pizza today at Milanos and sat with all seniors. Yay-rah for Kara, Cara, and John! We did my melodramatic play today in theatre and I laughed harder than I have since Freshman English class. I had a great voice lesson and Ms. Geissinger told me how much my voice is maturing...trust me, it's good The loft looks great! No math today! Instead of saying "that's gay" or "that's retarded" I"m gonna say "that's PATHETIC" No school tomorrow! Kinda bad: My dad said he was going to come to my theatre class and he didn't I fogot my lunch in my car I had to park in the Civic Centre My dad dropped off my lunch money at the wrong office (EPO, not Sig's) Sig Singers I didn't get a solo I wanted, but I will refrain from saying mean things about the girl who got it Marcus is still sick Kitty-Cat got her tonsils out I have two cold sores My buddy list was deleted Yay! And now my time is done. Remind me to post profound thought lata. Sunday, November 09, 2003
Hey, yeah! I wrote last time about Marcus. Turns out his appendix broke and he was rushed into emergency surgeory. Laine said he feels terrible. I would imagine...he could have died! Oh...sadness. But anyway, this week was great. It was fun to hang out with my friends. Especially the weekend. On Friday after school I met Alyse at Applebee's. I ate some chicken yum yum and we both had triple chocolate meltdowns. OMG! They are sooooo good. Then we went to Two-Bit Bandit and Alyse taught Sarah and I to play DDR. It's harder than it looks, and I'm glad not to be addicted to it like some of my friends...Hem hem, ALYSE and ASHLEY! Yeah. Jess was there too. I love her! She dyed her hair black it is pretty cute. Then Alyse came and saw me at work at the same time as a bunch of people from Day School came in. I flipped out I was like AGGGGH I DON"T WANT YOU HERE! At first they tried to ignore me, then when they had to order they called me "Jewels" and asked me to sit with them. I was scared. But Alyse was there for part of the time, and then when she left Sarah and Jessica came. They had just seen the Matrix. They said it was pretty good. I kicked the Day Schoolers out cuz we were closing, but I let Sarah and Jess stay and I gave them free ice cream. HEHE revenge is sweet. Oh, but I'm trying not to say mean things in this blog. Sorry...maybe i'll exclude Day Schoolers from that vow... Anyway, then Sarah and Jessica and I went to Mickey Dee's and i was sooo tired. Yeah, Sarah and Jessica you may now crack up. Then Saturday was our last SAT Prep course we ran outside shouting "Free at last free at last, thank God almighty, we are free at last!" Then Sarah, Alyse and I met Jessica at Super China Buffet. It was good. Then we went to WSM and I got a hot dress at Deb, plus a skanky shirt and a cute shirt that says "what a difference a brain makes." I got 20% off cuz my cuz works there. Then I went home and then to rehearsal and then to work. A bunch of people visited me...My grandparets, my aunt and cousin, Laine, and my parents. I felt so loved. Who says I have not friends? Oops. that was mean, sorry Ashley Loreleine. But now i gotta go and do more math homework! NO SCHOOL TUESDAY! YAY! THIS BLOG IS SO RANDOM! YAY FOR RANDOMNESS! Okay, I write again soon. Thursday, November 06, 2003
Hey everyone! This is my new blog! I kinda didn't make a password for my old one and now I'm locked out. Yeah. So I want to shout out to all my wives and soon-to-be wives: Alyse, Sarah, Emily, Kara, Kelly, Lindsay, Tousha, Kitty-Cat, Jessica, Ashely, and my male wife Keeran (who took my hand in place of Laine). Yeah. Today was fun. I went to Steak n'Shake after school with Laine and my cousin Stacie (she begged me to let her come.) I just worked forever on my poster for extra credit in Greggs' class and it was tedious. Excellent word. Am I the only one to be constantly confused be Greggs class? There seems to be no format or whatnot . . .I dunno. Speaking of Greggs, I gotta go read The Theif and the Dogs. Yeah. Love y'all lots! (Did I just write y'all? How sad and Southern Indiana of me) I also want to say I hope Marcus feels better. He is staying overnight in the hospital becuase they think he might have appendicitis. That would suck. Ttyl!
