A lot has happened to me in just one day. Both good and bad things.
Family is still having troubles, but I keep phone conversations short so I do not have to worry about what isn't directly involving me.
I got an A on my bio test...a 90%, but it is still an A!
On my calculus test I got a 99! That made me happy...I needed it after the rest of this crappy day.
I got an email informing me to re-apply next semester for the Theatre program. So, the interview and audition I went through last weekend proved not worthy...I don't exactly know what went wrong...the whole process involved a couple of essays and I cannot write to save my life, so that could be what screwed me over...or my monologues didn't sit well with them....I honestly thought I did really well. It isn't the end of the world but it came a complete shock to me. I will get over it and re-apply next semester. If they decide to reject me again...I will really consider transferring....
That is another dilemma... I want to, but it would be like starting all over again. By sophomore year you have gotten used to things and if I transfer I will have to start anew (but if things keep sucking here that won't be so bad...)....another thing is the economy....If I go out of state the cost goes up for school and my family cannot afford this now....If a school wants to basically pay for me to go their or offer me a nice financial package I will really consider leaving ASU. I do have the option of going down to Tucson to UA but (and don't hate me for saying this) I wasn't moved my UA when I was down there....I like ASU better....We shall see though....
I did my duo scene in my acting class today....my partner totally screwed up (that's what happens when you don't memorize until the day before and refuse to rehearse with your partner)....I was told by the class that they didn't know she screwed up...I waited to get notes from the teacher but she never came out of the classroom (I think she went out the back door to the parking lot...) so I have to wait until Monday...I might email her in a bit.
My plans for this weekend are no more....I will be staying on campus...My friend Amanda's best friend from Detroit is flying in tomorrow so I can hang with them but they will want some I-haven't-seen-you-in-four-months alone time...I would want the same...or I would just feel really awkward around them...
I have to have my script postmarked by Saturday for the ten-minute play contest.
The cast list should go up any day for the play I auditioned for...but I don't know....
We are running out of rehearsals for the show I am in...
Ok, there you go. My crazy day of roller coaster emotions.....
And now for a weekend of thinking, writing, watching movies, eating, etc...
In a few weeks I can take a short sigh of relief when the show is over, then Thanksgiving (which might be spent home briefly and then with friends because whenever I go home I freak out with stress), then enduring finals, then a nice month long break, and then the moments of truth...
Life is so bizarre. But every bad thing that happens to me gets my book one step closer to Oprah's book club....
Sometimes i wish I could just go escape. If I could I would leave my computer, my cell phone, and everyone and go sit on the beach in Greece. maybe find a nice Greek guy, get married, raise little Greek children and never return to my now crazy life....
BUT, never fear... I will not do that...If I ever get to escape I will return...I am just dreaming of the best possible way to escape my hectic troubles right now....
Linds...that backpacking trip cannot come soon enough!!! It will be well deserved and much needed....
Sidenote: My roommate is sitting in her corner singing and it is a tad funny....
Until I return from a mental holiday...
Bon Appetit!

Haha, oh, your roommate...I can't wait to actually meet her instead of sort of seeing her on Skype...:)
Greece would be amazing. Greek men would be amazing. Like Kostas. The guy in Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, not my left breast.
About the reapplying for the theatre major...that stinks, but I have much faith that you will get in next time. If you need help with your essays, hit me up. Don't mean to brag, but I am the queen of editing application essays. Honestly, I would love to help you. Perhaps we can make it one of Christmas break extravaganzas?
yeah, i volunteer to help with essays too. i editted tom's essays, so that says something. then again i also wrote my own application essays, and that says something entirely different. judge how you will...
i'm going to go dream of greek men. shirtless greek men like Kostas (defintely not your left breat, Allison...been there, done that). :D to anyone who doesn't know that I had to help allison into her twelfth night costume, that would sound reeeeally creepy.
my confirmation word is "nesse". sounds like an irish exclamation! nice! or rather, nesse!! :)
ooh oh, wait, now the confirmation word is "tablei". sounds like something jack black would say...i don't know why...
