I was Buffy in the episode Helpless. Or more or less in the same situation.

It was the Friday of Otakon, and the first day of school. My plan was to go to the con with other people from school right when they let us out. I was in Algebra with Ms. Liu, and I turned in a book that I'd forgotten to return the previous year, but she said that I already turned in my book, and started trying to figure out whose book I had. I sat out in the hall while waiting. There were several people dressed up for Otakon so they could go after school; one person helping the janitor was dressed as Alucard from Hellsing. I saw Corey coming down the hall and ran up to talk to her. Woke up just as Heather came by and I was about to tell her and Corey that I was going to Otakon.

Having a party at our house. I went to David's house (on a scooter?) and invited him over. He fell asleep on the couch when we got back. I went downstairs to tell the gang (Damien, Rowan, Orenda, Jordi, I think Corey and Heather) that David was here, but asked not to wake him. (Orenda or Jordi) went upstairs and sat on the other couch and watched him sleep.

Something about a hotel. The same hotel that's been appearing in all my other dreams -_-

No, I didn't audition for the musical. I was kinda thinking about it at first, but like I said before, I want to start looking for jobs again right after the One Act festival, so there's no way I'd have time for both. But I decided to go watch Corey audition at least, and I ended up seeing lots of cool people audition :D

So...once again, Mrs. McCary couldn't get the rights to the play, but this time it wasn't her fault. They haven't decided on the play yet, so the singing auditions are on hold. So I got to see people's monologues. There were some pretty good ones. I think my favorite was the one where I got to do a little improv;

This one girl's monologue was about how sick she is of every boy she meets staring at her chest. She had Spencer on stage drooling at her, then at the end of the monologue she kneed him in the crotch (acting, of course). Then while she was getting her picture taken for the audition papers, I ran over and helped Spencer up the stairs (yes, still acting). Now, I know what you're thinking; "Was this an excuse to act and be silly or was this an excuse to touch Spencer's arm?"

Good question. *giggles*

My gaaaaawd I want Spencer's audition mug shot! *hypersonic squeee*

And I was very happy for the people who did the lunchtime monologue from You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown. Because without a very kind Charlie Brown wiling to donate his sandwich, I wouldn't have been able to watch the whole audition, let alone Corey's.

Speaking of Corey, we established once again how clueless Heather is; I came into the building, and Corey and Heather were having a discussion. It was obvious from the look on Corey's face that Heather was being stupid again. Heather sees me and asks "Do you notice anything different about Corey's hair?" I blink at Heather and say "Uhh....she got it cut?" in a "duh" voice. Corey jumps up and thanks me graciously. Apparently Corey asked her this and she thought it got longer. Umm...yeah....I think Heather needs a little bit of Corey's Ritalin or something.

Another rehearsal tomorrow, which means being out reaaaaaaallllly late. But at least we're getting costumes prepared! Yay!

Must remember to pack my cell phone.

Meh.....Halloween itself wasn't much this year. I was taking a shower before getting into my costume, and by the time I got down there, there was no more candy, thus having no chance to show off my costume to trick-or-treaters :(

Mom and I just watched Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Spiffy-wheeness! It was kinda on the short side, sadly, but it was way cool! Yes, Mom, you have my vote on BUY IT BUY IT BUY IT!!!!!

It's got me all wound up now too! Good thing there's no school tomorrow. Or Tuesday. Then I have only two days of school, then ROWAN! is coming over! Then there's a possibility of seeing the play that weekend too!

Speaking of which, I have to call Corey tomorrow or Tuesday and ask which day I should come.

And I need to call KB Toys. Gah....why does everything have to involve phones?

Corey and Heather and my parents and I spent the day at the county fair. It was fun! We spent the first few hours in the agricultural section, and we saw the piggie races (SO CYUTE!) and there were some beautiful pictures in the art exhibit. Reminds me that I really need to make something to submit to the fair sometime.

Then we went to the rides. We went on the ferris wheel first, to see what else was there, then we went on the Bobsled, which basically spins around and is really fast and has heavy music and a cool snow machine. I got some of the snow in my mouth, though. Ptooey. Then Corey and I went against each other in the bumper cars, with Heather shotgun in my car. Then we went on the carousel. Then Heather and Corey went on this really intense spinny ride that went verticle, and Heather started to get sick, so we walked around for a little bit. I did a ducky game where I won a fake red rose. Heather asked who my secret admirer was, and we all agreed it was from Syngo ^_^ Heather started feeling a little better, so we went on another spinny ride that wasn't as intense. That was fun, and Corey said we looked really funny with Heather squashing into me and my head leaning over the side of the car. Heather was still a little woozy after that, so we stopped to try to meet up with Mom and Dad. We walked around some more after meeting up with them, I won a stuffed clownfish on a stick (which I wrapped around my rose for convenience), Corey and I went on the Bobsled again, then we started getting tired, so I played a few more games and won a little stuffed whale and a stuffed ray. We met up with my folks, won a prize for Mom, got some funnel cake, then started heading home.

So now here I sit, feet no longer hurting, but legs starting to ache, with the rose in my lap, thinking that this is the most fun I've had at the fair ever. Probably 'cause I'd never gone with friends before.

It's a shame Damien couldn't come with us :(

There was someone in my room who needed my help with something, and he got my attention by mentioning that he can transform into other people, and turned into Vin Diesel. I agreed to help him, but then either the dream changed or the something else I don't remember, and I was at a convention with Rowan and Corey and Heather. We kept getting separated because going up the escalators was making me nervous and dizzy. At some point we were in the bathroom, and a group of Sailor Moon cosplayers was harassing me because I got the name of one of their costumes wrong.


I usually don't get nervous on escalators, though...hmmmm

The first one is from last night, the other two are from Friday night at the convention.

Corey, Rowan and I were at Balticon. There was a big book of 8-Bit Theatre comics in the con suite. Brian Clevinger (author of the comics) was there. He didn't look like him as I remembered from his pictures, but his name was on the tag. I hopped into his lap (getting a very confused face from him) and begged him to read the comics out loud for us. He hesitantly started reading it.

I was on some sort of trial in Health. If I didn't prove to Mr. Doody that my assignment was finished in 2 days, I would be expelled. I only convinced half of the jury by the first day and I was fresh out of ideas.

I was watching graduation. Only 4 people (didn't recognize them) graduated and they flew away after getting their diplomas, much like Peter Pan. The others threw their hats. My Heart Will Go On was playing on solo guitar the whole time.

There was another one that night that was really scary, but I don't remember it.

The seniors are way too busy. Why do all the big important things that leave them running around with no time happen during the first week yearbooks come out???

*sigh* Anyway, I got Sher, Eve and Thomas today. Plus a few other strangers. Donn said I can catch him at lunch tomorrow (at least he'll be in one place, unlike SOME seniors....*grumble*) and Heather has Andy third period, so she's gonna take my yearbook with her for the old "My friend made me ask because she couldn't find you." excuse.


Corey's coming by later to drop off stuff like a sleeping bag and videos and such, so she doesn't have to carry it all to school with her. And then tomorrow....WE PAAAARRR~TAY!!!

Oh, and last night, I saw Shrek 2! It most certainly didn't live up to the first one, but it was fun. And Puss in Boots was soooooo CYUTE!!!!!! *squee*

Summer countdown update: 22 days until summer vacation.

I was in the metro station (waiting for somebody?) and I saw in a poster somewhere that for $40, you could take a metro to Japan. I told Mom that I was gonna do this, and she claimed that there was no way I would be able to save up $40. There were other details, but I don't remember them.

Strange things happen when you spend the night at Corey's house and stay up late watching Ranma 1/2 and Arjuna and reading Miss Mab.

Corey and I were in my room hiding from a sniper.

I was at school, and somebody there wanted to start an Everquest raid. So he sends everyone interested into the library and I play in my room upstairs (the school was connected to my house). The raid is IN the school/house, and we fight with super soakers and plastic balls. Somewhere in there, we had a break and captured our family friend Liz.

I remember somewhere in there I went to Dunkin Donuts and saw Mrs. Hines (Bio teacher) working there.

Woke up with a DDR sing whose name escapes me stuck in my head.
