It's quite Common... You can google it...

WHOA. this is a house, ON MD22!! The compound I hung out at EVERY Weekend. We used to hang out on the roofs of these houses. And run around the rows. One time we heard whistleing and got SO freaked out we booked it. I was so scared. We would eat grilled cheese in the dining hall. it was only like... 7 riyals. haha. And we would drink SO much ice tea with extra sugar water until we were bouncing all over the place. We'd go swimming at night, and play ping pong. There was always NOTHING to do, but at the same time so much. We would go cruising haha, we felt rebelous because girls aren't allowed to drive in Saudi Arabia.
Anyways, I'm done. I just can't believe that picture was on google.

Heat.

I'm always needing heat. Everywhere I go, no matter what I'm wearing I'm always COLD.
I miss Saudi today, I think I'll go on a rant about it. I'm in an online class, and we're listening to "Sweet Home Alabama" and that song used to be so annoying. But actually it reminds me of my friends in saudi. Leah, Nikki, Christina, Victoria. In May of last year, (for Leah's 17th birthday) we went a Villa at a beach. We're were the ONLY ones there. And we had the entire Villa to ourselves. We had an open tab at the food place there. And it was WARM all the time. We slept with the windows open, and woke up to amazing sunshine. We tanned, and there was always music playing. The parents were all doing sheesha and I LOVE that smell, it was so relaxing. The nights were amazing too, it was dark with a warm breeze. And we ran around the deck. And did crazy stuff. And I had 5 red bulls that night haha. We had three pools all to ourselves. UGH I MISS IT!
Recently on the bus home, my friend gave me a red bull, and it was the first one I had tasted since then, and it was a HUGE wave of emotion just from TASTING it. I miss it so much!
Everyone is so relaxed there. I miss it. I think I've said that enough.
Well. Hopefully Leah will visit over Winter Break. And Victoria is going to college in Virginia so she'll be around more. But I miss the whole country of Saudi Arabia.
Back to reality...

Forensics... Uhhhh

Now that I've gotten all my Friday excitement out I can talk about last night.
There was our second Forensics meet, held at TA. It went okay.
My friend was there who didn't go last time and she and I made a pact that we would do it all through high school even though we hate it. And when she wasn't at the first meet it was so lonely.
Last competition I got 5th place, but this time I got 2nd! And I went against a lot of the same people, which means I improved a bunch. And i got a cheap medal. Which is an upgrade from cheap ribbon. =]
I'm aiming for 1st next time though, i think if I actually PRACTICED, and put effort into it, then I would do better. Maybe I'll start.
I'm doing The Wolfs Story; What Really Happened To Little Red Riding Hood. It's cute, but not that fun, and I'm not really into it. I guess cause I'm not usually affiliated with Wolfs. OR is it Wolves?

We were out until 10 at night, so it was hard waking up this morning. But then I got my Twilight shirt that we made so everything was peachy again.

OH yeah! And yesterday I found out I have a callback for the musical! I have one for the singing and acting day, and I have one for the dancing day. I'm excited for both.

FRIDAY!

It's friday, and I can't concentrate. The following amazing things are about to happen:
Lunch, in 20 min.
Early Release
Going home with Emily
Going to see Twilight
Watching THMS's fall play
80's Dance
Staying the night at Emily's.

Isn't today PERFECT?
If only I didn't have so much online work to do.

Now, I shall annotate the schedule.

Lunch, in 20 min. HUNGRY HUNGRY HUNGRY! I've eaten a granola bar and coffee today. and that's it, so i'm ready!!
Early Release YAY FOR BEING AN UPPERCLASSMEN
Going home with Emily I haven't been there in awhile and hopefully I'll remember to bring my jacket back.
Going to see Twilight WOW. I have no words for that. I'm so excited, my friend told me it was good (despite the bad reviews) she said it's a good movie, but it just isn't much like the book. But if its a good movie, i'm okay. I'm prepared. I"M SO JAAZZZZEDDD. and I loved the shirts that we made. HORRAY.
Watching THMS's fall play Aww cuttie michael. I'm so excited. I love mr. strawderman.
80's Dance YES! even though NO ONE is going, it's still going to be fun. i love dancing. and hanging out and teasing my hair. ahahah i'm wearing skinnies, chucks, and a popped collar polo. WOO hoo. it's going to be great.
Staying the night at Emily's. Always fun. Heroes? maybe? yes.

We've Got Elegance.

Okay, now we're going to talk about how fun the musical will be if I get a decent role. (the conditions on whether I can do it or not according to the mother)

First of all. I've never been in a musical. But i love to sing, act, and dance, so I'm born for it right?

I want to be Minnie Fay. She doesn't sing a song all by herself, but she's still a leadish role. It's perfect. But really really talented people are trying out at the callbacks with me and they're all SOOOO GOOD. So I don't think I'll get it. But it's all worth the shot in the end.

I wish my BFF were doing it though. But then again, she would be stressed out, and I need her happy. So that's life I guess.

April, why are you so far away?

It's been forever since i've posted. I don't know why, I feel like if I write something it doesn't really matter. It'll all be over soon anyways. Like all my assignments due and stuff. I have SO much in History of Photography, and Psych. I'm behind. =/ And in Algebra. Cause Mr. Turner is unorganized. And in Penton's and in Tuetings, i don't know my grades. Cause they never ever tell us, until the end of the 6 weeks is over. and then you're like oh snap. I have a B. I need an A, but it's too late. That's why i freak out over like every assignment, because you never know if your grade needs a big boost.

I went to Young Life. It was kinda weird, and not very fun. But it was fun hanging out with so many random people and meeting new ones. If i could drive myself there it would be worth it, but I don't want to make my mom drive me somewhere that isn't so important to me.

Speaking of things my mom has to drive me to. I got a callback! For the musical, Hello Dolly. I'm so excited. But that means she's going to have to pick me up after school Monday, and Tuesday. And she doesn't get home from work until 5:45. So I don't know how that's going to work at all. I hate that these things have to revolve around getting there. I can do anything, i just DON"T because i have no way of getting places.

That's why, in April, i'll be the happiest girl in the world. Especially because I'm good at stick shift driving now.
