The Hardest Summer

Last week was my last week of high school, and I graduated this past Monday. It was incredibly bittersweet: I was so excited for school to finally, finally be over — but at the same time, I realized that it was the end. I can be one of those kids who...

Four more days.

Last week, I voted for the first time. It was wonderful, ah! I had a bit of a crisis in the voting booth, as John Edwards was still on the ballot and I really, really wanted to vote for him — but I held back and decided that my vote should go towards...

I can't think of a good title, so this will have to do.

This is just a list of my life since May 1st. Yeah, there's a week or so missing there since my last update. But that was just a week of school, rehearsal and not enough sleep. Lists seems pretty darn good to me. Wednesday, April 30th: • Urinetown...

We've all got our junk, and my junk is Spring Awakening.

(Ahahaha. What a lame title. But that's all that's on my mind, so la! ) After spending most of the week in the brown, wet northeast, imagine my surprise when I arrive home to find it green . And there are even flowers in bloom! Oh, it's pretty...

Why am I such a lame blogger?

I am exhausted , you all. It's almost spring break and I am pretty much wiped out. My teachers have been crazy with piling on the work, I had a calculus test today (which I think I did pretty well on, surprisingly) and I have a chemistry test tomorrow...

This time, my blogging break is due to having an actual life!

So I've been gone, I know. I haven't posted in a while. Well. Last week I was in Disney World with my school's orchestra. We did a fantastic workshop in which we got to record Beauty and the Beast , which was then put to the actual scene in...

Enough with the snow days already!

Seriously, we have another snow day today. A one- or two-hour delay, I might have been okay with. But a snow day?! It doesn't look like the roads are even that bad! And as far as I know, all we got was snow — not our usual ice. Ugh! At this rate,...

Why yes, I do hang out with pandas on a semi-regular basis.

It's been raining a lot lately. Earlier last week, we had those horrid storms that brought in terrible winds and even tornadoes (god, storms scare the crap out of me). It's been very muddy everywhere I go, caking my shoes and making my green fleur...

I love how weird I get, haha.

Since we finished Crime and Punishment , I've developed a much more serene attitude. Perhaps it's because our next unit is poetry, meaning we don't have to read any novels until after spring break! It most likely has a lot to do with the fact...

This isn't my "something interesting."

This is my "just letting you know that I'm still around, sort of, somewhere." Where have I been, anyway? What has Amy been up do? • Becoming acquainted with Nobuta wo Produce , thanks to Saskia. • Watching video after video of Yamapi and...

Grades: I should probably feel more upset, but I'm surprisingly content.

So yes, today I spent basically the entire day at Third Street Stuff, the local quirky coffee shop, with Saskia. We did homework, read, etc. I finished The Town And The City — by Jack Kerouac, which kind of disappointed me as I expected this epic wonderful...

On idealism, mottos, and happy

At the beginning of last semester, I adopted a motto: "Suck it up and DEAL!" Vincent and I seem to like this a lot. But it's true: get over the drama and the hate and the negativity. Just live, roll with the punches, accept life as it is...

This snippet sums it up quite nicely:

Amy: you know what i've just realized? Amy: THIS IS THE BEST START TO A NEW YEAR EVER Amy: LIKE Amy: EVER Amy: IN MY LIFE Saskia: HAHAHHA For once in a very long time (or maybe ever), I feel good about the school board's decision on snow days...

My heart, it aches.

I've been lagging on my blogging lately, I know, I know. I really shouldn't be writing this right now. No, I have a chemistry final and a calculus final tomorrow. My only two real finals this semester, and both on the same day. At first, I liked...

And he shall purify.

Tonight was the first out of two orchestra winter concerts. We're performing selections from Handel's Messiah with the chorus. You know how, during the Hallelujah chorus, the audience is supposed to stand? Tradition because of the King and such...
