So Aniele and I are going to dance around on the White House lawn and protest if we go to war, because Dubya's an idiot, and war fucking sucks. That said, we're both sick sick sick, so it could be a while before we drive up to D.C. I hate being sick! I have the cold from hell, and I slept 3 hours this evening, and now I'm stuck with this bizarre totally awake feeling. I should study for my biology test (blech) but I'm not going to. When is the blood drive... does anyone know? I thought it was tomorrow but someone told me Friday. Huh. Oh well... that means I miss a french quiz though, which suuuuucks because I'll have to make it up. "Afrique, mon afrique..."

Today at Breakfast Club rehearsal was so fun! What began with a switching around of actors (Drew playing Claire, etc.) transitioned into a tag game of switching in and out with cast and crew members. We caught the whole thing on film, too! And Daniel Glenn, playing Vernon as Jack, was fabulous. Thank-you Daniel. And the lipstick was great, even if you did break it. And Robby and Jason kissing - tres fabulous. I have the most fun with you guys, everything rocks. And our "candle" impersonations were fabulous as well. Yay!

My friend's mom, an army reserve nurse, is being shipped off to Kuwait. Tomorrow.

Tear drop 7:10 PM of Sarah

Someone give me something to do. I'm bored, and I really, really don't want to do my homework... I have so much that it's scaring me. Why oh why oh why did I decide to be an overachiever this year?

Tear drop 9:41 PM of Sarah

I feel completely unmotivated to do anything that is not extracurricular. I know that I should do my critical review (as I forgot it was due last week) and I know that I should study for my biology test and memorize my french poem, etcetera, etcetera, but I just can't! All I want to do is hang out with my friends. Drew stated the need for there to be some kick as parties January, February, and March, and so far, I'm having a great time. My party was fun (for me anyway) and Aniele's party was a blast, plus I get to see Casey a lot, we've had outings after both shows, which are really just social events for me anyway, and then the Superbowl party tonight... hurrah! It's been so much fun! Does anyone know when MidWinter break is? We need to take a massive trip somewhere, because it will be fun. Let's do it! Another entry for the memory books...

Tear drop 10:41 PM of Sarah

To the cast of the Breakfast Club - you are all amazing. Tonight's show was amazing. You did it, and it was phenomenal!!!! Everyone loved it! And I'm going to get you back at some point Drewsta for that marijuana comment - everyone thinks I'm a druggie now! But seriously, you guys rock. I hope the rest of the shows are at least half as amazing as this one was, because it was 30,000 times better than you've ever done it. And Chili's afterwards was much fun. See you all tomorrow!

Tear drop 12:58 AM of Sarah

No school! Hallelujah! But what happens to the play?!?!?!?!?!

Tear drop 7:51 AM of Sarah

I really, really, really hope this play goes well, because I'm really, really tired of it right now. I want to thank Laura and Sara so much for convincing me it was ok to go home. I took Nick home, which he needed, and went straight to Casey's, where I bawled for an hour on his bed. It's so nice to have a comfort in him...his mom will let me in any time of day or night. Love it. And then I came home, and I'm going to shower and go to sleep. Come see the Breakfast Club! (Or I'll kick your scrawny ass!)

Tear drop 11:25 PM of Sarah

I've decided that Ian Simpson is the coolest person I know, no arguments. He rocks the world!

Tear drop 10:22 PM of Sarah

Do you ever get that feeling after seeing a movie that you really, really enjoyed and just astounded you in some way, do you ever get that feeling that you can't sit still for more than 30 seconds and all you want to do is jump up and make a movie, or write a script, or do something productive with your time and not just sit on your ass in front of a computer thinking about how you should be prepping for your bio presentation or finishing your Lit journal? Yeah, that's what I'm doing. Incredible feeling, and I can't even say why, really, because the movie, while it had a good plot and was fairly well acted, cut to the cheesy right at the end and was not a technical genius or a profound marvel of a film. I just really, really enjoyed it. And Ryan Gosling.... he's amazing! I never thought I'd say that, but he is. I went into the movie thinking that it would be ok, B rate acting and I would know the whole plot before it finished, but I was very, very wrong, and I enjoyed it very much. Hurrah for the feeling, but no hurrah's for the fact that I haven't done practically any homework this weekend!

Tear drop 11:27 PM of Sarah

Party to-night! Yay!

Tear drop 6:10 PM of Sarah

Ahh! This is me having a panic attack. I did make it to the card store in time, I just had to haul ass from my house (across 400) to Manning Oaks to pick up my cashed paycheck from my mom, and then back to Hallmark on Northpoint before it closed at 9 pm. I did this all in less than 15 minutes, I'm that good. So I bought and wrote out all of these invitations, and I can't remember half the people I made them for, so if I don't give one to someone, and they're upset, or want to come, or something, invite them! It's my birthday, make sure they know me, etc. etc, but in general, the more the merrier. And all the people who read my blog are invited, sothat takes care of that, if I miss out on invite give outs tomorrow. Saturday, 8pm-12am, my house. Yay!

Tear drop 10:57 PM of Sarah

I am too tired to do anything. I should be studying. I should be reading. If Hallmark were open this late, I should be rushing out to buy more invitations. But I'm not. I feel exhausted all of a sudden. School needs to take a nap.

Tear drop 10:55 PM of Sarah

All I've done all weekend is read! I've done a little bit of homework, but I've spent the majority of the time reading. I know that that's very dorky, but I've had the greatest time. I read About A Boy by Nick Hornby, Lucky by Alice Sebold, Good in Bed by Jennifer Weiner, The Hours by Michael Cunningham, and The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold. Amazing, all, fantastic, all. And I'm 1479 pages into my 2000 for Friedman, woohoo.

Tear drop 3:18 PM of Sarah

Saw Adaptation tonight with Casey, Ellery, and my sisters. Go see it. Now. Very, very good.

Tear drop 12:39 AM of Sarah

I can't stand the idea of going back to school tomorrow - I feel like I've already graduated. I do not feel like going back to structured classes with oodles of homework, tests, and other stresses, and I certainly don't feel like going back to my old sleep schedule. Why can't we just graduate now and get it over with? Why do we really need to take 2nd semester? Ugh. I am glad for some classes (Friedman and Bio) but I'm very upset about some others (Stats, French), and it doesn't help that I'm absolutely terrified of what will happen to me 5th period tomorrow in Poulos' class. I've never been on stage before where I've had to speak. Ever. And I can't even remember what Old Lady I am in Kick the Can. I know Laura and Sara are the other old ladies - perhaps they could give me their numbers?!?! but I'm absolutely terrified that Poulos will realize he was stupid in casting me, and I'll become the class outcast. Yippee. Why oh why does there have to be school?!?!


Tear drop 8:16 PM of Sarah

My birthday has been the most amazing birthday ever. Ever. Hands down, a winner. I woke up, early of course, as my mother demands, to a delicious breakfast, and then hung around the house for a few hours, playing cards with my sisters and taking emode and the spark quizzes, and having lazy fun. Then Amy and Ashleigh surprised me with a balloon that read "over the hill" and told me that they were hijaking me. I've never been hijaked before! We went to Friday's and had great fun sharing a plate of chicken fingers, and a free, oh-so-delicious, brownie obsession. Wow. Then returned home to find father home, and walked dogs in toeless shoes in 36 degree weather, while it was snowing (though not sticking) as a birthday present from mother nature. Then we had reruns of friends and will and grace to watch as a family, and then dinner, my favorite meal ever. Shrimp curry with pasta and green beans. Delish. And after dinner, lots of mah-velous gifts, including a massive book containing all of the covers ever printed of Rolling Stone magazine. Amazin. And then Casey showed up unexpectedly, and was in a foul stressed mood, which he quickly slipped out of by being given a monstrous piece of black forrest cake, and seeing my reaction to his gift, which is to die for. I am wearing the most beautiful necklace I have ever seen, and he swears up and down that he chose it himself. WOW. I love it. Am never taking it off, except to shower. Wow. And we played Cranium, and Casey and I won, woohoo, and then came up to blog. I love birthdays, and I have had so much fun. Thank you to all of my friends who called with well-wishing (Preston called from work, I was so happy!) and came with hijakings, and early birthday presents, and IM's of love. I had a great time. 18 is fantastic!

Tear drop 11:47 PM of Sarah

Happy 18th Birthday to me! Happy 18th Birthday to me! Happy BIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIRTHDAY to meeeeeeeeeeeeee, happy birthday to me!

Tear drop 1:48 PM of Sarah

So Casey made me a mix for New Year's, and I thought it was really cool, and it's a mix about all of the songs that he somehow connotates with me. He's made me one before, and it was pretty sweet, so here's this mix list:

Taking Back Sunday - Cute Without the E (Cut from the Team)
The Starting Line - Greg's Last Day
Dashboard Confessional - The Places You Have Come to Fear the Most
The Anniversary - All Things Ordinary
No Use for a Name - Soulmate
AFI - Days of the Phoenix
Remy Zero - Shattered
The Juliana Thory - Understand the Dream is Over
Josie and the Pussycats - You Don't See Me
Something Corporate - Punk Rock Princess
Jimmy Eat World - The Authority Song
The Reunion Show - Dedication
The Starting Line - Leaving
Finger 11 - First Time
Swirl 360 - Okay
Hot Rod Circuit - The Pharmacist
Weezer - Butterfly

Isn't that a great mix?
