so, i've decided to do a monthly update at the beginning of every month (starting with this one) to sum up the happenings in the previous month so that those of you who want to know what's going on in my crazy world don't have to look any further than this crazy xanga.

anyways.  first off, i was accepted into nyu's steinhardt school of education in early april and made my decision to go there shortly thereafter.  i'm totally pumpt for college, but it's gonna be tough leaving home.

next order of business, west side story was amazing.  there were some minor flops (an f-bomb thrown around backstage while someone's mic was still on), but hey, overall, a great performance.

the rhapsody performance date approacheth.  huh.  how bout that.

school still sucks (like that's new).  with that said, the only things i care about in school now:
     1.  choir
     2.  honors recital
     3.  prom

let's elaborate on those three things now, shall we?  choir matters because i love it.  i love all of the songs we're singing (minus "three madrigals," blech), and mrs. a totally rocks my face off.

the honors recital matters because it's my last one and i want to be able to showcase my transcription of a surprise song.  those of you who know of what i'm speaking, keep your trap shut.  i know where you live.

prom.  well.  i'm going with kenton, and that's a milestone in my life i want to be able to share with him.  he's the love of my life, and i can't imagine spending my senior prom with anyone else.  we've been through so much and i truly do believe with all of my heart and soul that he is the one with whom i will spend the rest of my life.

in conclusion, i hope you all had a wonderful april, and i'll look forward to updating you again on may's happenings on the first of june!

decided to take a break from xanga for awhile.  i've become less introverted over the year and a half i've had this thing.  i've become more comfortable with myself, i've become more comfortable with others, and i'm slowly regaining my ability to trust others.

i could call this decision maturity, i could call it laziness, but, above all, i think it's because i've found someone i can talk to.  he's my true love and i know i can tell him anything and everything.  i don't need a blank screen to vent to anymore--i have someone who's willing to listen, regardless.

i may update every once in awhile, just because i know some people like to hear how you're doing through blogs because they're less personal; i respect that decision.  but, for now, so long...

take a bow, the night is over
this masquerade is getting older
lights are low, the curtain's down...
...this show is over say good-bye

nothing much worth posting right now.  just felt like venting a little. 

have to write papers out my ass this week, and then mucho work to do tomorrow evening after guard.  problem is, i'm not going to want to do it since it's late at night when i get home. 

i think i'll do some scholarship stuff in study hall tomorrow.  even though i really don't want to... but i need to.  i know my parents probably won't let me do anything on friday unless i get that stuff done by friday after school.  not cool.

rotary club breakfast tomorrow morning.  mmm.  très excellentes repas pour moi.

------------
when the world is crashing down, oh,
i will throw it on my back for you...

wish i had something to post but my life is just so much of more of the same plus some random thoughts and quotes that make or break my day.

the supreme court is being a complete and total ass.  i have no idea what i did to them but they just all of a sudden decided to yell at me and punish me.  dumbasses.  i hope i'm never like that with my kids.

speaking of which.  k and i are still debating over whether or not we're having kids.  if we could have our way, he wants a little boy with red hair, and i want a little red-haired girl (like the one charlie brown has a crush on).  we're both such losers. 

i can't wait to spend the rest of my life with him.  maybe i'm being childish, but what we have is special.  true love.  i'm lucky i found him.
