   woah! i just got visited by the ghost of flirtations past!
wow. i ran into a guy i'd liked over the summer. it was akward. i was sitting on a bench, eating my lunch, when he walked by with a group from a class that had just gotten out. i was suprised, but fully prepared for either a wave or head nod as the case may indicate and for him to be walking on, but he stopped and started talking. we had a 10 min. conversation. i REALLY hadn't thought he'd ever want to speak to me again, really. we'd exchanged emial addresses, but he'd never wrote me. i couldn't tell what he was thinking; i guess i'll just have to stay tuned and wait.

   boredom?
well, laura needed to use the practice room, so now i have 20 min. to kill, so i thought i'd post, seeing as how i haven't done so in quite a while.

some new kid sat in my spot today, so i couldn't sit next to that guy i like. *sigh* and he looked kinda ticked off all through class. course he always looks ticked off, he's just usually on the brink of laughing because of our little whispering conversations. danm i wish he'd ask me out. -___- it would make life a lot happier and simplier.

ian (the guy) did have a really funny little story about how his cat insists on sleeping on his head every night, and that is a singularly amusing mental image. apparently the cat also has an ear-biting problem; it puts its head on his ear, purrs loudly, begins to lick it, and then bites it. also noses. but it dosen't do that as much any more. top 10 reasons i own crabs....

i feel bad cause i insulted him yesterday, but i didn't mean to. it just came out. i was wearing dress shoes, with really tall heels like i'm fond of wearing, and we were walking down the hallway together, and i remarked outloud that in these shoes i was taller than him. he said, "yeah, i think you are" and then, feeling like i needed to cover, i told him that once i had to make sure my heels didn't make me taller than my prom date. he said "um ok" (NEVER a good sign in a coversation) and then walked off to band. so i appologized today. "sorry for the shoe comment yesterday. i realized i'd been kinda rude." he just lauged and grinned at me. "don't worry about it" that kid's smile could lighten any day.

hope you all have good days/nights (whenever you happen to read this).

   wow
don't you hate the beginning of the year? you were enjoying your time off, then were wrenched into going back to school. then, when you get there, everything is slow to start. like now, i should be practicing, but what????? i haven't had either a piano, organ, or voice lesson yet, so i have nothing to practice, and nothing to do with this time, so i'm here.

i feel like i'm standing on the edge of a cliff, my toes curled around the edge, arms outstretched, waiting the command to jump. but whether anyone with a nice pair of wings will be there to catch me, or whether i will discover that i have a pair of my own, i cannot now know.

   A veryimportant new addition to my life....
wow it's been such a long time since i posted, but i finally have time again.

my big news is that i am now the proud owner of a distempered hermit crab. he's such a darling. i never thought i'd become a crab-owner, but a friend gave him to me. i wasn't really sure what to do with him, or what to think. but i watched him sadly wandering around his cage, trying desperately to figure out a way to escape, my heart went out to the little fellow. i mean, cats and dogs are bred and raised to be house pets; to love humans and to be happy only when cooped up with love in a home. but hermit crabs--they can't breed them in captivity: so basically what happened is that one day, my little crab was wondering happily on a beach somewhere, and some fat-head with a net comes by, sticks him in a little box with a couple of holes poked in it, then puts him in a new and i might add, sissy-ly painted shell and puts him on display at the mall. it's sooooo sad. so i'm trying to take good care of him, because i can't release him back to where he came from.
i am a little scared, because he shows all the signs of molting--every so often, crabs shed their exoskeleotn and grow a new one--it's their only way to grow. it's kind of a dangerous time; all you can do as an owner is make sure he's got enough moisture, then sit back and wait.

Does any one else have a hermit crab? and do they have any advice?

OOOOOHHHH! and another very important thing! i need help naming the little bugger. nothing i've thougth of really fits. we've had Dr. Bob, Mr. Crabby, Scardicrab, Shelob, Sandy Claws, Jimmy, and Grumpy. the name that's seemed the best so far is Horatio (like from Hamlet; he's Hamlet's best friend and kind of side-kick, so it kind of works, b/c i often feel like Hamlet, except for that whole ghost of my father telling me to murder my uncle thingy). another thing to consider is that i might be gettting him a friend, since he's so lonely. and cleaning up after and feeding 2 isn't going to be that much more involved than cleaning up after 1. i'm pretty adept at spotting crab crap.
oh, remind me to tell you the "crab crap" incident.
gotta post this before the computer kicks me off!

   hello adn sorry i haven't been here much...
wow i wish i had something fun and exciting to talk about, but everything around here has been stressful.
it snowed last night and this morning, adn it was so beautiful. but then the damn sun came out and melted everything. it sucked. it made me so sad. i love snow, even though it's a pain in the butt to drive in. i fishtailed twice on the way to school; it's an act of God that i'm still here and typing. i only felt scared afterwards. *shakes head* the mind is a wierd little place.

well, i'm gonna go visiting now... bye ~(-_^)~

   two amusing anecdotes...
so i'm walking in to the music wing here, adn i see something occuring that could only happen in the music department.
there's a truck parked on the sidewalk, and a guy loading it. as i get closer, i can see wiith what: there are already 3 timpani, and he's loading a 4th. as i turned the corner i saw the 5th being brought foreward. and as i looked back i caught the liscence plate; it read: "ALTO". *shakes head, grins* awesome.

the next occured as i was walking back from the library. this little groundskeeper car was driving down the sidewalk, and clearly trying to get past this cute, romantic couple who seemed utterly oblivious to the loud engine noise directly behind them. as i got closer i could see why. their gestures were'n t just gestures, but sign language! so the guys in the truck were probably thiniking, "Gaw! what are they deaf?!?!?!?" adn the answere is yes! ha!

have a good day!

Ill met by moonlight, proud Titania....
i'ts amazing how the mood swings in a day work, isn't it?

today started off pretty good, considering the depths of depression i was in yesterday. i got to talk to ian today, which made my day begin quite wonderfully. he actually touched me today--patted my shoulder when i screwed up sight singing in a singularly humilating, yet hilarious manner. God i'm sooo pathetic. but when he was walking away to class he actually turned around 3 times to look back at me, as i packed my bookbag at a bench. so i'm hoping he actaully does like me. and he knew enought MST3K to understand "well suddenly i have a refreshing mint flavor!"

so the rest of the day was, welll, ok. psych teacher let us out early. i practiced with the dude i'm getting paid to accompany, then left early without practicing the organ, so i could be sure to get to the polls in time. voted. got gas. went up to chruch to begin to make up the 2 hours of practice i'd missed. i started to practice adn then a little boy comes up into the choir loft. i was taking his practice time: he was gonna do an arrangement of Joyful, Joyful We Adore Thee for church the next day, and needed to practice. he was sooo cute and little; his feet didnt even touch the pedals. this was his 2nd year of organ; he'd taught himself piano, like i had. and i was suddenly infused with an overwhelming, non-sensical hope for the future. it was amazing; i just can't even attempt to begin explaining it.

so then after playing for children's choir i go over to chruch to practice, and get all set up, when in walks the mother of a certain @$$ whose last name starts with a SH and ends with an IPPERSS and like 2 other people. they see me (how could they not????), kneel down, and begin to pray. so i'm like totally exasperated. they could of least of flipping well told me how long they were gonna be there! i mean, i fully understand that a church exists as a house of prayer, and not a convenient place for me to practice the organ at, but sheesh!this has been like the third time lately. so i went into the chapel and prayed so i wouldn't have to hear them. they took 45 min! for a rosary (for non-caths. who don't know, that would usually take only 20) so then i finally get to practice, and i have a TOTAL off night and can't get anything accomplished. to use a verbal analogy, if playing were speaking i wouldn't have been able to say my name. then i started remembering several creepy ghost stories i heard lately, adn i started getting REALLY creeped out adn then i just had to leave, even though i hadn't put my hours in.

my parent's haven't gotten home; i have this tragic feeling somebody died. and never mind they just walked through the door.

lord what fools these mortals be.

   well, life continues to amaze me.......
it's a rainy, drizzly day here, but beautiful. like what they call "a fine, soft morning" in the Quiet Man, a cute little irish movie i love so well. i have nothing much to say, and nothing much to do; so i'm here because of the second, despite the first. if that makes any sense. whatever. my throat dosen't hurt nearly as much as i did yesterday, which might mean i didn't manage to contract a cold from the 6/7 ppl. i know that have one and are sick right now. yayness!
i fell asleep in speech class today. but it was ok because nothing important was happening.

this is one of those days where i wish i could put on a long dress, crown my long hair with ivy, walk barefoot into the grass and dance to celtic music (and yes artemis, i'm still pronouncing it incorrectly!!!!...). but only as long as it's in a secluded spot, and someone very dear to my heart who resembles an elf is dancing with me. *sigh* but it'll never happen.....

*anxiously awaits 12:00*

love ya all!

   KIWIs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
kiwis are sooooo yummy! i had one for dinner. i got a WHOLE one ALL to MYSELF *giggles manically*!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i hope everyone's been having a good day!

i had a sight singing test. it was easy but i totally bombed it. i hope everyone else did too, so he'll have mercy. this professor has a voice exactly like mozart's in the movie Amaudeaus (spelling???), but minus the giggles. he's professor of cello, and it's said that no one likes him, and that's why our cello dept. is so small. someone scratched some letters into the sign on his door so now instead of CELLO it reads: (CELLOp) is "cellop" some kind of insult?!?!? *shakes head*

the organ dude made me cry again yesterday. then he's all like, trying to be kind and fatherly. *twiches* i wish he'd make up his mind so i could know if i should hate him or not.

well hope everyone has a splendiferous day!
