[May. 19th, 2006|10:05 pm] |
Not much has happened lately. Summer school is going well and I've made it through the first week. I am being fed. Kathleen and I are sharing cooking duties :) It's quite exciting.
Got my grades this past Tuesday. Here they are:
Intro to Creative Writing: B+
Intro to Expository Writing: B-
Religions of Asia: B+
Voice and Diction: B
Intro to Theatre Arts: A
GPA: 3.26 (Honorable Mention)
Cumulative GPA: 2.60
So... YAY FOR ME!!! I was totally happy to get those grades, especially the Expository Writing one. I was hoping for at least a C in that and got higher!! WOO!!!
Seriously. Seeing those grades really made me happy. I'd been down for a little while then, so that made things better.
I have a lot of reading and writing to do in this Literature class (well, duh). And, of course, I hardly do any of the reading. hehehehehehe
Alright, back to the Simpsons. Catch y'all later! |

I've had a pretty busy week and it wasnt because of work. I hung out with some of my friends and had an awesome time!
Wednesday, I went with Vikki, Mara, Christine and John (Christine's bf) to Springfield Mall to do some Christmas shopping and then we went to the Sculpture Gardens in DC where we ice-skated. It was a lot of fun, but it was cold (the ice rink was outside) and my feet started hurting after a while from the skates. After that, we took the metro back home and I took Mara and Vikki home.
Thursday, I went over to Vikki's house and she, Christine, and I watched some movies (Moulin Rouge!, Mean Girls, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days) and had pizza. What was REALLY awesome was that Vikki played for us on her acoustic guitar and sang for us. It was such a beautiful moment. It was just really nice. She played "You Were Meant for Me" by Jewel and "Swing, Swing" by the All American Rejects as well as the beginning of "Kiss Me" by Sixpence none the Richer. She was really good.
Yesterday, I finished up my shopping and today, I just got back from picking up my grandma. I also stopped by Lone Star and got my tipshare from yesterday and I'd gotten $30! just from working in the morning!! I was so surprised because we werent that busy. I mean, yea, we had a few small-ish parties, but $30? It was shocking.
I also got Kate's card in the mail today. THANKS SO MUCH KATE!! I loved it. It definitely made my day (well, until I open presents later tonight). It was really sweet.
Anyway, that's all for now. I'll let yall know what presents I got tomorrow. I hope everyone has a very merry Christmas. I LOVE YOU ALL!
EDIT!
Yea, I actually have time to do it tonight. I'm copying my CDs onto the computer. Here's what I got:
A Little More Personal (Raw)- Lindsay Lohan
Oral Fixation Volume 2- Shakira
Emancipation of Mimi (Ultra Platinum Edition with DVD)- Mariah Carey
I Am Me- Ashlee Simpson
The Simpsons Seventh Season
$50 gift card to Borders
$275 in cash and checks ($100 cash, the rest is checks)
Kodocha Volumes 2 and 3
Cargo pants, curdoroy pants, and a soft dark blue sweater
YAY!!! I am very happy! |

Overall, I've been nice (913 points). For Christmas I deserve an Easy-Bake Oven!

So, yea, it's snowing here. Classes past 1pm were cancelled. YAY!!!!! It made me very happy. :) I also found out math class on wednesday is an optional review day, so I don't have to go! I can sleep in!! WOOHOO! I'm so glad classes were cancelled; i just didn't feel like going to any of them today, esp. after getting all excited about snow. I hope classes tomorrow are cancelled too, not that it matters too much since I won't be doing much anyway... but whatever. It's the principle of the matter.
I watched some Vicar of Dibley on my computer while arlie and kathleen watched Tremors, which Arlie got from his family for his birthday. So, yea, that's all for now. :) |

I'm back at home again!
I never got around to editing the entry before the last one about the weekend, so I'll just write about it here.
Basically, I ended up going to Lone Star twice in one day, saw Gaia and DJ and others on saturday, saw Zombie Prom (AMAZINGNESS defined!), talked with Gaia and Alex A. afterward (but before the cast/crew party afterward). Stopped by the cast/crew party, had something to drink, grabbed a bag of Chips Ahoy! and followed DJ and Matt as they travelled to the auditorium, then I went home at 11 and slept.
Today, went to environmental science, packed, had lunch, drove up here with amy, got a bit lost (but not for too long), went to dinner with my dad at wendy's, then went over to Lone Star and told them when I wanted to work (wed and fri night, sat morning) and then hung out with Sherry at the bar for about 45 minutes or so and chatted. Vikki called my phone and said we were gonna meet at the bowling alley, so I waited for sherry to get back from the bathroom and then i said bye to her and left. I got to the bowling alley, found vikki, mara and christine and we all hugged and stuff. We ate some food and played UNO, then actually went and did a game of bowling (i lost- but there's a story coming up later). Afterward, we went to silver diner and had some more food (I got hot cocoa and chicken noodle soup... mmm yummy!) and we took some goofy pictures (which I will put on my facebook at some point when my internet decides to let me access it). Then I came home and am now sitting in bed typing this up. YAY!
Here's the story:
boothy0304: and i went bowling with some friends tonight
Jamie: Coolyoolyoes. Who won>
Jamie: ?
boothy0304: i think my friend christine did
boothy0304: i was last
boothy0304: lol
Jamie: Awww... sorry, Boothy. ^^''
boothy0304: it's ok
boothy0304: i took it all in stride
Jamie: That's very sportsmanlike.
boothy0304: in fact, the first time i bowled tonight, it went into the gutter and i turned around and i was like "WOO! GUTTERBALL!!" and like jumped around and highfived my friend vikki
Jamie: XD
alright, that's all for tonight. Night all. |

| | Negotiate with Love- Rachel Stevens | ] |
This is just a tiny part of my AWESOME weekend, which I will go into more detail (but not too much!) later, but for right now, here's something funny.
Ok, at Monster Bash on Saturday, the anime club was at their table and we were making Japanese paper lanterns, which is what the Japanese do on their Halloween (which is referred to as O-Bon and is celebrated in August or, depending on the area, July). This little black girl came up (she was probably around 10years old or something) and she looks at our table (also, there were other kids there making paper lanterns at our table, so most of us were focusing on helping them and talking to them and such; Alex and I were just kinda randomly talking). And then she goes "Psh. I ain't doin' this." and walks away. Alex and I had such a gigglefest and now that is seriously my favorite quote ever and I've used it like 5 times over the course of the weekend. Heck, I said it several times today. Amy says I'm good at saying it. That makes me happy. lol
So that is my story. I'll edit later.
PS I GOT RACHEL STEVENS' NEW ALBUM 'COME AND GET IT'!!!! I got the Limited Edition that comes with a DVD of all her music videos. SO GOOD!!!! I love it! |

Ok, yea, it's been several days since my fall break ended, but here's what happened. I'm EXTREMELY bored, so I'm going to go ahead and write it now.
Friday: Went to classes, left with amy around 4pm, picked up a cat in Elkton from her Aunt Cindy, spent the night at her house- had dinner, watched CSI and South Park, then slept
Saturday- got dropped off at the metro around 9:45, got to Huntington around 11, my mom picked me up and took me home; I immediately took the car out and drove to Lone Star to see if I could work that weekend. I talked to Courtney (shift leader) and she said it would be awesome if I could work, but I couldn't because I was taken out of their system (since I hadnt been there for over 4 weeks) and I'd have to redo paperwork and it's not worth it for 2 days. Oh well. It was all for the better anyway cuz I didnt want to work anyway. lol Had lunch there (chicken tenders w/ steak fries) and then went to Tower Records to see if they had stuff I wanted, which they did. I got the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants DVD and TATU's new album Dangerous and Moving (which I may review later). Afterwards, I visited with my grandma for a bit, then went to visit stage crew and guess who I saw? GAIA!!!! It was so awesome to see her again. I hugged her for a bit, and then we chatted while she ordered people around (hehe). We had fun. Hopefully, I can come back to see the musical so I can see Gaia again. My friends need to meet her, because Gaia is awesome. And they need to meet all my other friends, cuz they are all awesome too.
After stage crew, I just kinda sat around and did nothing.
Sunday- Went to church, went to Borders and Best Buy (Best Buy has failed me TWICE because they did not have Kodocha Volume 2, even though it's been out for over TWO weeks now; Borders however did have it, but it was like $30 and I'm like 'I ain't paying that much for that.'), and then went to go pick up my grandma to bring her over for dinner; had dinner with Grandma, Uncle Fred and Aunt Susan and basically just had an awesome time. Watched the end of Charmed that night; oh, how I miss watching my awesome awesome new Charmed.
Monday- worked on homework; went to Tower Records, which unfortunately did not have either Rachel Stevens' new album or Dannii Minogue's new single Perfection. It made me sad, but what made me happy was that me and Dad went to Lone Star for lunch where I had chicken alfredo w/ steak fries, which was very very good.
Decided to order Rachel Stevens' new album via UK Amazon, which probably cost less that way than by buying it at Tower as an import. It was about $25 for the CD/DVD combo (which was dispatched today! and will be here around Nov1-3).
Tuesday- Left house around 7:30am; got to Jamie's house around 10am, picked up jamie and chatted with him in the car until we got to lynchburg (one of the myriad of subjects we talked about included the ad I saw in the paper on sunday, which was "An Evening with Colin Mochrie and Brad Sherwood" and I told my dad that we are so going to see that; it's on Feb4 at the DAR Constitution Hall at 8pm, it's gonna be awesome) and we had lunch at Arby's, which was good as usual cuz Arby's is awesome like that.
Jamie and I helped each other bring our stuff to our rooms, which was VERY helpful for me since I had a lot of stuff to bring back. After that, I chilled in my room til 5, when my parents came to pick me up so we could go have dinner. We went to Ruby Tuesday's and then went to Best Buy (where they FAILED for the second time) and Target. They then brought me back to school and we said bye and they went back to their hotel and I went back to my room. Yes, quite exciting stuff.
Nothing much happened after that. And lately, I've just been going to classes. But now, the weekend is upon us. WOOHOO! We're watching Kung Pow! right now, so that's quite exciting.
anyway, i gotta go. |
