Mules are so half ass.

Let’s talk about the One-Acts for a little.

First of all: I LOVE THE ONE-ACTS.

They’re so much fun and the casts are always great and lots of people always come to see them. Also, a lot of people told me that my play was their favourite, which was nice. Yesterday, we moved from the Matchbox Theatre to the auditorium because there were so many people and Ben didn’t want to turn anyone away since it was the last day. It was kind of weird and I was angry about it at first (mostly because Ben didn’t ask any of the actors/other directors if we wanted to move) but it went pretty well anyway. I want to have an encore performance, but I doubt we will.

Another good thing about them is it gives alumni an excuse to come back to Central. Seamus came to see them on both Thursday and Friday, and Christina and Camille came yesterday. I wasn’t friends with many people from 268, but the ones who I was friends with I miss so much.

Of course, it made me a bit sad as well, but I’m not going to get into that. It’s kind of impossible to talk about anything that’s upsetting whilst listening to This Machine Pwns n00bs. Seriously.

I have a lot to do between now and Wednesday, none of which I’m looking forward to. But Monday is a half day, Tuesday is Career Day, Wednesday is whatever, and then it’s Thanksgiving!

Omegle?

At first I was all “I don’t really get this Omegle thing. It just seems really weird.” But now it’s snagged me with it’s tentacles (an Omegle sounds like it could be a tentacled sea creature, doesn’t it?) and I can’t stop saying silly things to people. It’s kind of hilarious. It’s still really weird, but also hilarious. I’m starting a game where I say a line of a song and see if the person says the next line. I’ve said “the deep sea anglerfish has no reason to be happy” to so many people and none have provided the correct response. Haha.

Weekend.

I saw Where the Wild Things Are yesterday with Caileigh, Zoey, Russell, and Elisa. It was good, but way more depressing than I thought it would be. The quote, “Sometime I don’t think people realize how lonely it is to be a kid” from Eternal Sunshine kept popping into my head. And I wish it was just a little more uplifting. Just a little. Even the funny parts had dark, sad undertones. The soundtrack was really good though, and Max Records is probably the most adorable kid ever.

After the movie, we walked around a bit trying to figure out where to eat until deciding on a little pizza place called… Joe’s, I think. The pizza was tasty and I was happy because I don’t get to hang out with my Masterman friends nearly as much as I want to.

Today I found out that I only have one application due on December first! I thought I had two! This was very exciting to learn. It was also like, seventy degrees today and I opened the deck door and it was lovely sitting on the couch with the deck door open in November.

Now I think I’m going to try to read my Gov textbook. Blaaaah.

Hoo ha!

Okay, so I don’t want to sound pretentious or jinx myself or whatever, but I am totally PWNING school this quarter. I doubt it will last into the next three quarters, but right now, I am very happy, and excited to see my name on the “All A’s” board.

(Day forty-four)

Last week, in Language Arts, we were discussing Harry Potter. Being a fan, I told them I read the fifth book so many times, I once counted how many times the book said ‘Harry’. My answer was 3532. Today, a quiet boy in class came up to me and said, “You missed one.” I’m in love.

Why aren’t there boys like this at my school? And if there are, why do I not know about them?

The art of applying.

I’ve recently developed a strategy for filling out college applications. It’s not very good. See, what I do is: first, I fill out the parts of the Common App that don’t confuse me (done), then, I fill out the easy parts of the supplements (done) and leave all of the short answer questions and essays until last. And at some point I fill out the applications for schools that don’t use the Common App and therefore make me angry (I’m looking at you, DePaul, UNC School of Arts, and SUNY Purchase!). So now I just have a crapload of essays and short answers to write, which I should probably start soon if not now (Psst, I’m not gonna start now). I also have to schedule auditions and try to miss as little school as possible.
