    Hello everyone! Long time no blog, eh? I am not in the best mood right now, so please excuse my cranky-ness. Maybe it's because I was up so late last night because I went to RENT!!! It was awesome. But Sarah and Emily didn't get to go. That makes me mucho sad. They would've loved it. Oh, well. I got to meet the cast and I showed them the stage door and Mark said "Thanks, babe!" and I met them all and it was so cool! They said they might be coming back in less then a year. The girl who was Jo-Anne said, "We're waiting for the girl who played Maureen, Leslie. She's realy my girlfriend, ya know." And we still don't know if she was serious or kidding. It was funny. Anyway, I can't talk a whole lot now, for fear of my life seeing as I'm in multi-media and don't want Hanson to kill me. LOL. Now I have rehearsal and Nancy Hasty is coming to watch. Exciting! So I gotta go work on lines. LOL. Bye!

    Nancy Hasty is the coolest eva! She reminds me of Laura. It makes me sad and happy at the same time.

    Alyse is having a party on Friday. Fun stuff!

    And I don't have time for anything.

    Yay for two hour delays!

    I am talking to Maggie. It makes me sad.

    Dessie is pregnant again.

    I need to go work on my song for Saturday.

    I have to re-print my change poem.

    My dad broke the handle of my Camry. Thanks dad.

    Randomness is good.

    I bought a CD holder for my car!

    Help Hank help Hank!!!

    YAY! I made it to the finals of the singing thingy, but it wasn't a contest which upsets me. I made my mom cry, in a good way. And so it's all good. The other finalists (who I know) were Betsy, Luther, Brandon, Sarah T., and Guzzo. It was cool. They all did really well. And yesterday was crazy. From 8:00 to 1:00 I had the singing thingy. From 1:30 to 3:30 I had ballet, then I went straight back to UE to sing from 4:30 to 5:15. Then I ate dinner with my parents and then went straight to work. I sat down a total of maybe an hour all day. My feet were in agony by the end of the day. I got to bed at 12 ish so I was yp for 16 hours but on my feet for 15 hours. OWCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They still hurt today, but work was concelled because of the ice storm. I hope school is cancelled too, but it won't be becasue Siggers are Snow Nazis. Anywho, here's why I'm still stressed:

    Schedule:
    Today:
    4:00 to 4:30 - finish math h/w
    4:30 to 6:00 - do Int'l Awareness
    6:00 to 7:00 read Pi

    Tomorrow: School, no lesson, no rehearsal, ballet (not stressful)
    Tuesday: ALYSE"S BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!! School, ballet, rehearsal (BAH!)
    Wednesday: school, ballet rehearsal, play rehearsal
    Thursday: school, play rehearsal, RENT
    Friday: School, play rehearsal, possibly work
    Sat: Cara and Luther's show (stilll have to find a song) and ballet all morning, plus solo and ensemble
    Sun: BAH prolley church and work

    Why am I crazy like that? I don't know. How am I supposed to do homework? Sigh. I have to go get on that math. It's pretty easy, but I can't divide pi/5 into 4 parts. I don't know how. Sigh. So I'll talk to y'all later. I LVE MY LAURA AND I MISS HER!! I also don't enjoy being house-bound by the dang weather. oh well, it go tme out of work. YAY!

    Cat spent the night last night. Yay for Kitty-cat!

    Thought for the day: I haven't blogged in a really long time. I need to shower. Should I straighten my hair? Decisions, decisions; I wonder if Alyse's power is back? -Julie-

    Oh and the famous play-write and Ms. Gregg's friend is coming this week! YAY fun-ness!

I have strep or something (I have white spots on my throat) and I have a singing copetition on Sat. YAY - NOT!!!!!!!!!

    Thought for the day: "I detest being a girl" - from the song "I enjoy being a girl" with my own specail twist

    I am in computer class and am very frustrated. No one but Alyse call me (for math help) tonight, as I am too busy with rehearsals until 8:30, then after that I have to eat and then do homework. Unless you really need me, of course, you know I'm here for ya. Anyway, just wanted to fill you in on my hectic life. Still can't find my script.

    Hey y'all. Tonight was good times at work. Abby was hilarious. Caitlin and Octavius can testify to that. I then went to Kooties with Cat but they were full to capacity and wouldn't let us in. So I drove around and then we came home and watched Chicago. It was fun. Now Cat is sleeping and I should. Oh, I danced to today at Sleeping Beauty rehearsal and there was this part that Anna said "Okay, everyone is doing this. This is the easiest part. So you guys get in lines. Oh, Julia (she's Russian and thinks my name is Julia) you might have a different part, so you might not be in this." Is that good or bad? If it's the easiest one and they won't let me do it cuz I suck, then why am I doing the harder dances? I hope it's a big part, but I won't get my hopes up too high. Oh, Octavius is so cool. Anyway, I'm not making a whole lot of sense, so I'm going to bed. Nighty-night.

    Thought for the wee hours: Orlando Bloom is hot, but not THAT hot. Sorry Sarah, you may have to kill me now. -Julie-

(wow big word, *insert panicking noises here*) And my dad's in Serbia, conducting the sucky Bellgrage TV and radio orchestra. So I hear.

    And me? I'm still busy. Had my first "Sleeping Beauty" rehearsal tonight. Freikin' awesome. Ummm, there was something else, hmmm......... No rehearsal tomorrow; that wasn't it; no school Monday; that wasn't it. OOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! This guy (James) is teaching our musical theatre class some jazz dances and they are awesome! He choreographed "Me and my Shadow" the one we've been learning all year. Okay, well I have to go. I love my wives, male wives, non-wife, and husband! (By the way, I think I started a fad with that this afternoon downstairs all my friends were asking random people to marry them, so now I'm not the only polygamist.) Okay, this blog is getting out of hand. Bye.

    Thought for the day: "And that's good; isn't it grand; isn't it great; isn't it swell; isn't it fun; isn't it...but nothing stays. In fifty years or so, it's gonna change ya know -- but oh, it's heaven nowadays." - Roxie and Velma in Chicago-

    Okay. Let me clear this up. I want to lose maybe 15 pounds for dance because to dance you have to be much much thinner than I am. The places I gained weight in (stomach, legs) can be easily concealed and made to look good in clothing, which is why I"m the only one who thinks I need to lose. I'm not fat. But I want to get back to the weight I was at the beginning of last year. I'm too big to be a dancer, so I need to get back into shape. That's all. I'm not like becoming anorexic, I'm just eating more healthy food. But I'm glad my friends are worried about me. Thanks guys. :-)

    Okay. I have to read like 30 more pages in this stupid India booklet. GRR! So I will leave. I thought there was something importnant...oh yeah! I'm going to be in Sleeping Beaty! YAY for tight schedules! Let me explain:

    Mondays: voice lessons and possibly tutoring (not bad)
    Tuesday: Rehearsal from 3:30 to 5:30; dance from 6:20 to 8:00 (a little hectic)
    Wednesday: Rehearsal from 3:30 to 5:30; ballet rehearsal from 6:00 to 8:00 (a tad bit crazy)
    Thursday: Rehearsal from 3:30 to 5:30; dance from 6:20 to 8:00 (a little hectic)
    Friday: Rehearsal from 3:30 to 6:00; work from 6:30 to close (not cool)
    Saturday: Ballet rehearsal/class from 11:40 to 3:00; work from 6:30 to close (not cool at all)
    Sunday: Church; homework (worn out)

    This is my schedule from now until the beginning of February. Yay for crazy people like me! Well, I'll write again!

    Thought for the day: As time passes, people change; But memories will stay the same, forever. -Will-

    Wow. Just had a really intense conversation. Let me absorb ..... absorbing .... okay, I'm good.

    The stupid lunch sign-up won't let me sign up for Wed. And even Rollin can't fix it, and he wrote the program! Grr. Anyway, I just am touching base. I have to go to bed. Oh, and I'm trying to lose 20 pounds. YAY! no more snacks for me! Anyway, I have to go. Bye!

    Hey everyone. I am at school. Last night I decided to try a ballet move in my room. I landed on a shoe, bruised the bottom of my foot, and pulled a muscle that attaches my knee to by calf. It hurts really bad. Graceful, huh? I thought so. So anyway, Emily, I can't wait for you to see Rent! Try to get Sarah to come. It will be fun.

    Man, math class was funny today. I was hilarious. I love Hara. Hey, I gotta get to work. I LOVER MY SPEDNAS!

    Hey y'all. I'm at school. It's dress like and international celebrity day, and I'm Kathryn Zeta Jones as Velma Kelley. Hot stuff, I tell you. I have a short black wig and everything. It's funny. Anyway, I am tired and feel like crap, but what can ya do? Next I have musical theatre, and the last thing I feel like doing right now is dancing. I think I may have to leave early to go to the doctor. Sucks.

    Emily: This is for you! Candy and I already have 10th row tickets for Rent. We can meet you there, and you can maybe spend the night, but we already have tickets. Sorry, babe! And maybe you don't want front row tickets: you're neck will hurt because the stage is like almost straight up from you. Believe me, the seats aren't that great. Try getting seats in another section, maybe with us! I want you to come, though. It's a great show. I LOVE MY EMILY!

    Anyway, I am leaving now. Study hall is almost over. Durn. Oh, well. I love musical theatre, but I just don't wanna dance. Maybe Ill just say I'm sick and lie down. I can afford to do that, last semester I was out for over a week when I twisted my ankle, and I still got a 120% in the class. LOL. Well, ttfn.

    Thought for the school day: "Come on babe, we're gonna paint the town - and all that jazz. I'm gonna rouge my knees and roll my stockings down - and all that jazz. Start the car I know a whoopee spot, where the gin is cold, but the piano is hot; it's just a noisy hall where there's a nightly brawl and all that jazz." -Chicago (Velma Kelley)

    Okay. Well, some good news and some bad news. Bad news first: I am sorta fighting with Sarah. Okay, for the record I AM HAPPY AT SIG SCHOOL! The theatre class is great for me, because that's what I'm going to major or minor in. The choir is superb and I am proud to be in it. Sure, I fight with people, but NOWHERE you go is everyone gonna like you. Why should I go to Day School when it made me miserable? I will have plenty of time to be miserable later in life. I feel like I belong at Sig, and I always have. Anyway, if you choose not to believe, fine. Only I know what I'm really thinking, but if I didn't feel that way, why would I lie about it in my own journal. I am happy in the play, and it's a great opportunity. TWB is great and everyone is so nice to me, regardless of how weird I am.

    Good news: Marc and I are cool again. I think we're just gonna start over with a clean slate. We're aquaintences, and have fun doing the play together. I realize I made a mistake in pushing him into a relationship, and he regrets sending me the wrong signals. YAY MARC!

    Thought for the day: Only one person knows at all times what you're thinking and feeling. Only one person has been where you've been, done what you've done, and felt what you've felt. Know who that person is? You. Not your best friend, not your cousin, not even your parents. Only you know what is really going on inside. -Julie-

    Oh. Grrr. I am gonna have so much fun in rehearsal tonight! I'm an obstacle, am I? I'll show you an obstacle.. you're in for a rude awakening. Oh, I am evil. Maybe I just won't do anything, depends on how I feel. But no I don't hate Jodi (I WILL spell it wrong) and I have nothing against her except that she doesn't seem to like me. That's all. She's a fine person. Well, I am in multi-media and I have to go, but Kitty-Cat is gonna have some fun with the boy. At least he's providing entertainment. He seemed nice... maybe he still is, but he called me an obstacle and not a friend, and said I seem to "want/expect something from him..." what? I don't want/expect anything except a little respect, which I told him. Oh, grrrr.

    Well. Back to school, back to ballet, and back to voice. Back to normal, I guess.
    Back to school: Tiring. Long. Hard. Sucky. Depressing. HOMEWORK!! Bad grades. Old friends. New friends.
    Back to ballet: Painful. I suck. Painful. Don't really want to do it, but need to. Painful.
    Back to voice: Didn't practice enough. Sore throat. Didn't practice enough. This is getting old really fast.
    Back to normal: Without a boy. Everytime he looks at me and then ignores me, it hurts. Did he ever really like me or did I just think he did? I don't want to believe it was all in my head. WAS IT?

    Anyway, well, I was gonna write some good news, but one more piece of bad quickly. Wait, why am I apologizing? It's my blog and you don't have to read it (but my wives know I like it when they do. It helps us keep in touch) Well, today I had to go to an appt. and Alyse (Taylor) was late as usual. So I waited for her for 15 minutes, meaning I only had 15 minutes to get to my appt. She would have to come too; there was nothing I could do. I get to my car, put the key in the ignition and turned it .... nothing happened. The door light was on all day - either the door was open or the lights are being weird. They are sorta messed up. Anyway, the battery was drained and Laine came to pick Marc up (she was sick) and she offered to stay so I could jump my car with hers. A nice friend of Taylor's (alex?) jumped my car, and Marc held the hood open - it doesn't stay by itself. I helped holding it (we alternated) and my hands became so cold I was about to cry from pain. They hurt for like 20 minutes afterward. Anyway, I got home and now my car is in my driveway, and believe me when I say it isn't going anywhere. So I'll have to get a new battery. GRRR. And this morning the locks froze, so my dad and I were standing out there for like 10 minutes, thawing the locks, him in his pajamas.

    Today my dad left for Serbia. Please pray for a safe flight.

    Thursday I'm giving Kitty-Cat dance lessons. Exciting.

    Well, that's about it. I am gonna run and do some homework. I wonder if I should go to ballet today...no I'll go on Thursday, that way my classes are spaced out. I will talk to you peeps later. I LOVE MY CANDY, SARITA, AND EMILY!!!!! SPEDNAS FOREVER!!!!!!!!!

    Thought for the day: They have orchestras in Serbia. Who knew?

    Hey I deleted the Tag Board because some ass was typing inappropriate things into it. Well, JOE BLOW, I'm not ugly. You're apparently the only one who thinks that. And, while I'm not by any standards "hot," I am pretty and turn many heads - not because I'm ugly, but because I'm NOT ugly. Also, if you think I'm obnoxious SUCKS FOR YOU, doesn't it?! I've got plenty of friends. My best friends (well, my best friends with blogs, anyway) have links on my page. Just click the links and note how they all go to friends' pages, saying numerous times: I LOVE MY JULIE or something similar. So, Joe, get the hell over yourself. You're NOT funny and you're NOT cool. AND ................................................. I'm done.

    So anyway, I have to go because I have to finish Ishmael. Weird, weird book. Talking gorrillas...why does Frau want us to read this again?? Yeah. Don't wanna go back to school. YEAH FOR OCTAVIUS!

    Thought for the last evening of Christmas Break: "No sleigh bells. No Santa Clause. No yuletide. No mistletoe. No holly. No tinsel. No Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. No room at the Holiday Inn, oh no! And it's beginning to snow!"

    Hello all! I have been online looking at colleges for the past two days. Scary, huh? I may go visit some in Florida or Calli over Spring Break. I'm so old! Hey, I gotta go. I love my Spednas! Emily, Sarita, and Candy! I love you!

    Okay. Well, Marc and I reached an agreement. Yes, the boy is Marc. I really don't care anymore, cuz the whole "winter fling" is over. Sigh. Life goes on. I'm okay. It's not like we were ever really going out or anything. Marc, you've convinced me: I don't like titles either. Oh, and thanks for the techno CD's! I am learning to love techno.

    So anyway. Not much else. My nation is prospering. I'm joining the UN. I may take over the world, though. Hmm. Decisions, decisions. My little island increased in population by 1 million today. Hooray for Spednas!

    Thought for the day: Boys are more confusing than girls...who knew? Not me. -Julie-

    Hello all! Happy New Year! It's 2004! It's Julie-San, and I'm without my Candy. Sadness abounds. Well, The boy and I are having difficulties. I'm taking everything too seriously. Sigh. Why is he so damn afraid of commitment? Cuz he's on the rebound. I know, I know. I wrote a poem about it, and if you want to read it ask me. We are still going to Kooties though on Sat. You're all invited.

    Laura (mafia uncle) says "What's up gigolos!" and then she says "Shake your ass like you're watering the grass! Move to the beat like a youth group retreat! Feel the groove like a con-man on the move." WOW was that special says I.

    I made a nation online! Come visit it! Go to "the world" and type in "The Free States of Spednas." Yayness! I am plotting to take over the world with the Fertile Crescent. Maybe I will. It would be interesting. I'll think about it and get back to you.

    I gotta go. Night all!

    Thought for the night: When I’m with you, everything fits
    How can it be a mistake if it all feels so right?
