First the complaining so I can get that over with.
#1: I'm still sick. This sucks.
#2: My nails and the skin surrounding them is gone. Damn bad habits.
#3: Broke my vow to stop swearing >_>
#4: I type much faster than my keyboard can handle.
Okay, moving on. So, yesterday my appointments went very well. My doctors and I are trying to get me healthy. ^_^ depression and eating disorders are very common in diabetics, so are problems with over-dosing and under-dosing on insulin. That means my doctors have the experience and know-how to help me through all of this.
Yesterday was also my audition. Despite everyone wishing me luck and telling me not to be nervous, I was nervous as all hell >_< Well, it is my number one school. I messed up my songs. The tempo was too slow. I got the first ear-training right but most of the others wrong ;-; I think I did all right on the theory test though. TT_TT Anyway, I had thought I totally sucked ass and I was ready to forget about music programs then and there, but Professor Meredith (one of the judges whom I had met before) stopped my Dad to say how much she loved my voice and how much she enjoyed hearing me ^^ She even gave him a sample syllabus!!! She told me that she had some free time and that I could come ask her questions and work on my songs with her!!! I got to sit in on a lesson and then had a lesson on her with my songs. She told me that my only problem was that my tempos were too slow. She had thought I would eventually die from lack of breath! When she found out I have severe asthma and couldn't get much help on my english piece she was very impressed =P She showed me the book I will need for next year and invited me to come to a performance she and some other faculty are giving tomorrow. She found out from me that the school is my number one and seemed very happy. She told me when admissions and scholarships would be reviewed and said I would recieve word that I got...I mean, recieve word ^_~ in a few weeks. She was strongly hinting I got in ^_______________________________________________^
Today I baby-sat at my school for five hours. I had to help take care of 40 kids, some of whom fell in love with me. I'm not kidding >_> I have a real-maternal aura and kids are drawn to that. One boy in particular, Lucas, took to me. He held my hand and dragged (?) me along with him whenever he could. When we watched a movie he sat on my lap. He and Quinn and Bryce...all attached to me...all an extremely energetic handful...but...I loved it! >_< I love kids~! Afterwards, though, I was so sweaty and exhausted. I got to McDonalds and scarfed down food, then my brother Tony (10) got a haircut and we went to the library, where I got some manga. After getting home, I wrote thank you to the music professors of my number one university to thank them for hearing my audition and answering my questions. I got a reply back! from one of the judges saying she was glad she could help and that she looks forward to reviewing my application.
Another hint that I'm in????

Going off on a completely random tangent: I have been really into Star Trek lately. I love Spock! The man really needs some loving! *sneaks off with Spock* lol...you guys should really check it out though *end of random tangent*
Today I also wrote a poem for my psych class which I will post now.
Reaction to a Misuse of Classical Conditioning
One eleven-month-old boy
Alias: little Albert
Two curious psychologists: Watson and Rayner
No extinction—conditioning misused, an infant abused.
Two months, all goes well
After two months, breaks loose all hell
Conditioning Albert to fear a rat
His once furry friend is now foe
Unconditioned stimulus, noise,
Seeks to eliminate Albert’s joy.
Conditioned stimulus, rat
Albert fears all things furry or fat
Santa Claus no longer jolly,
How I loathe Watson’s and Rayner’s folly!
I have one question only--are you daft?
This experiment should have had a second draft.
Praise be to the APA,
For preventing future dismay,
And Watson’s student, Jones,
For redeeming Watson’s woes.
Wow...this post is long, but I'm trying to get a lot of stuff in. I'm sorry I won't be able to visit sites in a long time *hangs head* You see, I have this major psych paper to write plus Improv is working on an uber angsty drug/alcohol/driving accident skit to perform at the local performing arts center. It will even go on TV!!!
I finally have pictures of myself (with my new haircut) so after I am able to scan them, I will get them up ^__^ aren't you all excited? >_> lol, I don't blame ya, who would want to see what I look like? o_O;;
Um...Um...oh yeah! Tomorrow I am going to mass and then having an extended family luncheon for my grandma (on my mom's side) 's 80th birthday. Then I am going to that performance I mentioned earlier. Well, time for more homework and brit coms. Sorry for the uber long post, peoples. ja ne ashita minna!
