easy mac alfredo is a disgrace.

it should be renamed easy mac alfredo SOUP.

that's a weird title for a post, but i'm sitting here, really hungry after a five hour rehearsal during which i pretty much did homework, with the stuff on my lap and i was expecting fettuccini alfredo. but no, i get a soupy imitation mixed with some counterfeit noodles. i'm not saying that i wouldn't eat it again. it's just not...fettuccini alfredo.

i'll get on task, i promise. i think tuesday was my last update, so i'll start with wednesday. wednesday was the beginning that all actors say they loathe but secretly love. it began a week of no sleep and doing hw at the absolute last minute while going to class with bags under our eyes. wednesday marked one week to Macbeth....HELL WEEK. it began jazzmans with Claire of course, then combined portal class (always more fun with Erinne ;-) ) then history and i honestly dont remember wednesday's lunch. went to a boring lecture on how to register for classes. then i procrastinated with Kaoru and Asako-- side note! i LOVE Asako. she's really funny and apparently thinks i'm glamorous (?) k side note over.-- went to Campus Minsistry BBQ, attempted studying for spanish (the test that she told us about on TUESDAY that we were going to have on THURSDAY!!) had massive rehearsal. Mrs. Hawkridge gave me the same note on wednesday that she gave me tonight and i realized why i was doing it. apparently i'm talking too slow and i don't have enough urgency in my voice when Lady Macbeth has gone off a rail. i'm afraid to have urgency b/c when i've had it in the past, i've made the so-called "screech" and i seriously don't want that to happen again. i don't want my parents telling me after the show that i was out of character (even though they've never acted...yes, Dani, i'm OCD. yes, i do care what they say). came back around 11 to do spanish. blehh =\ and i did something momentous. i didn't study for Mrs. Mediros' daily bio quiz. i did the worksheet, so i knew that i would be okay for the open notes part...but i actually barely opened a book for the other part. it was only 11 by the time i was back in my dorm, but i was just...so tired.

thursday-- no rehearsal amazingly. calculus ;-x then lunch with some bests. Dani and i watched her brother on YouTube right smack in the middle of the caf. no joke. and she was proud of me for not studying for bio. then i went to study some more spanish and then we had the test...which i think was okay. Sra. Borrero loves me (though she loves Lily more...) so i think she'll take that into consideration. then bio and right in the middle of bio, i remembered that the director's showcase auditions were that day. i had showed up to the audition on wednesday, thinking that was when it was. lo and behold, the auditions were from 2:30 to 4:30 on THURSDAY and my voice lesson was from 4 to 5ish. Nicole told me to stop flipping out and i should have, because when i showed up at 5:00 after voice, they let me audition. i'm not sure if i got cast, but Mary Beth and i had fun doing a scene. then mads/chorus and i walked back with Ann to her house, then dinner at sky ranch with Danny and i rejoiced when the CHRISTMAS commericals were being shown and b/c i had NO SCHOOLWORK to do!! so i came back and watched the sisterhood of the traveling pants with Claire and Karou (who never saw it before!!) of course, i started crying at the end, when the girls said that they knew how matter how far they went on their own separate paths, they would always find their way back to each other. i started crying hysterically, i'll be honest. Karou was worried that i wasn't ok..but i was. i just realized how much i missed my friends from home, the friends who know me best, the friends who i'll love forever.

friday-- Claire and i went to jazzmans early, so she could get online to get tickets for the Avril Lavigne concert. Claire and Avril= me and Hugh Laurie, maybe moreso, more like me and Rosie O'Donnell when i was like 9. and she almost didn't have the tickets!! then we had a plenary for portal which i tried not to cry during. (side note--the voice that was narrating was Brad Pitt's. love how i know that.) i had lunch with Ann and Steph and Andrea then i had a meeting with Ducha for my classes for next year. i started my history presentation and talked with Allie for a while--apparently we're having a Sexy Party in december. this should be good. i'm kinda excited and of course i'm nervous b/c supposedly Arielle bought me a really dirty sexy gift. don't get me wrong, dirty jokes crack me up. i just don't like dirty jokes that i can...wear. then i went bold and did something momentous...I DECLARED MY FIRST MINOR as THEATRE!!!! Mrs. Hawkridge was thrilled to sign that form. i'm declaring music as my second minor, but the jury is still out on a major...i ate sky ranch with Katya, then i went to the longest rehearsal ever. now i'm back and i found out that 1) i missed 101 Dalmations starring Mr. Hugh Laurie. 2) Dani is now kidnapping season 2 of House. 3) ARIELLE GOT FACEBOOK!! and of course 4) don't buy easy mac alfredo...well, don't buy it if you're expecting the real stuff.
