I just found this nice little band called Dinner and a Suit (myspace.com/dinnerandasuit)courtesy of Alixx's twitter. haha. Really swell covers and such though!
I am knee deep in Les Mis right now, totally lovin it. I have ONE thursday of Grace left! Graduation is in less than 3 weeks. And then the sweet and frightening taste of freedom will be in my mouth at last! As of today... Everything after graduation is pretty much up in the air. I'm not sure where I'll be at school next year. I'm not sure what show/if I'm doing a show this summer. Where I'll be working. PD camp? Who I'll be seeing. When I'll be traveling. If I'll ever get to go camping... haha. So much unknown. Here's the thing about the unknown though, as long as you don't know, you never have to commit. So indecisiveness is a strong suit of mine.
My lanta but I have been a busy bee. Hopping around finishing everything up before summer. I successfully have one night free each week, if that. Between dance, work, voice, and cyt I'm swamped. It smells like summer outside though. I am ITCHING for it. Our neighboors have a fire pit. Yum. That is one nice smell. Between the smokey smell, the beautiful weather, and this neighboorhood we live in (if the sun is out, people are on bikes/rollerblades/skateboards/walks) it's like summer arrived prematurely and just forgot to tell the school system.
I guess so far this has been more of an update on my life then anything insightful. But someday maybe I'll want to know what I was up to as a 17 year old. My memory is already bad. Precautions.
We're doing this cool free writing assignment in Lit. right now. Mrs. B basically just gave us journals and told us our only perimiters are that we have to write in them once a day. We can write anything we want. SO I've mostly been writing in that instead of on here. haha. It's much more handy. Sometimes soon I'll post some of what I've been writing. It's been really nice and helpful.
I went to a show at the clearwater with Jam & Matt last friday. It's been TOO long since I've been to one. I think my last was RK when it was still freezing. I don't remember exactly when... January? Anyways. It was This Providence, Anarbor, The Audition, & The Bigger Lights. I'm not nuts about any of them, but it was prety cheap and totally worth it. It was a fun night! Sometimes when I'm at that sort of show though... I get kind of sad. I look around and see all of the sceney girls with their bows and vans and flourescent eyeshadow. A thousand brightly colored bracelets, overly dyed and styled hair. Clothes too small. And I just get upset. I used to be just like those girls. Searching for validation by "standing out" in the same way as everyone else. I see them and remember how I felt when I listened to the music, hung out at taco bell, and layed in the grass behind the movie theater. I was such a lost person then. So sometimes. It's like being in a dream being at the shows and standing next to the girls, but knowing that now I'm a cpmpletely different, and fulfilled person. So bizarre. I have certainly gone through my share of life seasons. haha.
Lataaaaaa.
