School is Now in Session

Hey peeps~
We have officially completed the first week of school. The hardest part is over, and we have a 3 day break! We really should do something this weekend...everybody call me and let me know what's up. Especially Keb! I never get to talk to you! Hey, if we do anything over the weekend, we should all of us bring our 9th block forms. It's a chence for us to all be together! And I know Sarah really wants to do History in Films, but we have a much better chance of getting put somewhere together if we do a class that nobody else would want. Am I right? Anyways, just call me and let me know what's going on!

School

OK. So school's starting. My sister's really nervous about it, and I was too at her age. But today I feel like all of the energy is sucked out of me. I am soooooo nawt ready to go back. The teachers seem nice, I got good classes [Sarah, see you in homeroom, Kels, see you in drama] and I have all of my supplies and my outfit and everything. I don't really dread it, cuz you guys will be there, but I'm nawt exactly tingling with excitement either. It's like ya, I'm ready to go back, but I don't want to have to deal with the whole "brand new year year, brand new people" thing. Or the homework. I'm definitely nawt ready to go back to homework... anyways, I'll see you guys tomorrow.

School Starting...

School's starting again! Open house tonight, don't forget. Many mixed emotions...Pros: I get to see you guys every day, we get to see Mrs. Cohen again, school play, & we're gonna be 8 graders. Cons: no more free time, no more sleeping, 30,000 lbs. of homework, & seeing buttheads like Connor + Justing again. Oi. Well, in a way I'm gonna like going back; I miss you guys alot, and I miss my locker. And I definitely can't wait for the next play! We're 8 graders, we have experience, so we definitely have a better shot than last year. Anyways, can't wait to see you guys tonight, and just so you don't forget plans are changed for Saturday. Come over from 4-10, no sleepover. See you all there! :]

Gerard Is Engaged!!

Ok, I know you guys already heard this from Kebba, but I'm just throwing out some more info. I've done some Internet research, and it was not easy. Some sites say that Gerard is not engaged, some say that the band created the rumor because they were mad at him, and some say he is. I'm gonna go with the "yes, he is" because they had quotes from Gerard and a name for the lucky gal: Eliza Cuts [pictured with him above]. So...this is the girl that has stolen our beloved Way's heart?! Well, I wish them the best of luck together, and I hope she knows just how lucky she is. There are more [better] photos of her out there, but I just thought his one was so cute. :]

BEST PARTY EVA!!

OMG guys-
I'm just posting to say that that was THE BEST PARTY EVA!! And as far as J.P. and Tyler....well, what can I say? When you're right, you're right. They rock. It was definitely the most fun I'd had in a long time! Everyone who missed out.....well, you missed out on alot.

Happy Birthday Kelsey!!

Hey Kelsey!! Happy birthday!! [Sorry, I know you don't really like pink, but it was the cutest pic I could find] I hope today rox for you and have fun!! Do something good for yourself; eat too much ice cream, go to the pool, whatever. Idk, enjoy one of your guilty pleasures or something. Can't wait til your paaaaaaar-tay tomorrow! Yea! It's gonna be so cool...but anyway, have fun on your real berfday. Your birthday only comes once a year!! We luff you girrrrrrrrrrlllll!

Hey guys

Hey guys [pay no attention to that dot at the top of the post. I put it there by mistake and couldn't figure out how to delete it, so I made it as small as possible]. In case you haven't noticed....IT'S HOT!!! And I mean really, really hot. My mom grew up in Florida and she said it never got over 102 degrees. At one point yesterday our thermometer read 109!! Now that's hot! Also, yesterday we had some Code Orange thingy. My dad said that meant the air is really bad to breathe, and you shouldn't go outside unless you absolutely have to. I hope nobody went to the pool or anything outside!!

O, and Sarah i was at Creative Ej yesterday and the dude I was talking about was Carl, not Ryan.

And Keb, YOU NEED TO CALL ME!! Right now!! I am desperate!

August!

OMG guys; it's August! School starts back in exactly 25 days! I don't know about you, but it feels like school just got out. No way am I ready to go back. I just cleaned out my backpack yesterday! Everyone I meet says "Ooo, you're gonna be 8 graders, the top of the school!" But I'd be a 6 grader again if it meant more summer time!

Shakespeare

Hey you guyses-
You know I had a Shakespeare camp 2 weeks ago? My daddy videotaped clips of it - watch me :]

Also, my doggy's birthday was on Saturday.

HAPPY BERFDAY DOGGY!!!

She turned 15 years old. :]

Good Job

Hey guys-
I just wanna say congrats with the auditions. You all did a great job, and even though we didn't make it, the important thing is that we're getting more experience. And that we had fun! I don't know about you, but I had a great time, and i'm really glad we tried out. And we're bound to find auditions for a non-musical eventually!

I'm Back!

Hey guys! I am back. Sorry, we got back a little later than expected- 1:30 this morning. I had an awesome time, but I did miss all of you. You'll have to call me up so I can tell you all about it!

New York

Hey you guyses-
I'm just letting you know that from this Friday to Friday, July 7 I won't be getting back to your messages or comments- and it's not because I'm ignoring you. I am just giving you a heads-up and letting you know that on Friday I will be leaving for a family reunion in New York-- Seneca Falls, to be exact. I'll be coming back on Friday, July 7. I probably won't be able to get on the computer on the 7 (I think we're traveling that day) but I just wanted you people to know that if you have anything important to tell me, you had better do it before Friday.

Improv Camp Gone Wild!

Hey you guys- if you haven't seen it already, you absolutely HAVE to watch the video on the sidebar. This girl at improv camp brought a camera to the last day of camp, and I wondered what it was for. Now I know! She made a video of everyone in camp and put it to a FOB song (Thriller!). I'm only in it like 2 or 3 times :( but most of my friends -Sarah, Liza Jane, Julianna, Michael, Morgan, Carson, and Lauren- are in it a million times. You won't recognize who any of them are, of course, so you'll have to call me so I can describe them. Also, the second video is one that she made showing how WEIRD these 4 guys from camp were- Sean, Michael, Hudson, and Carson. It's really funny!

Happy Father's Day!

Hey y'all! I would just like to say happy father's day to every daddy out there, especially my daddy. Daddy, I love you. You are so much fun and I love spending time with you, even though you like Kelly better. But I still love you anyway, and I want to thank you for being my dad, because you rock. So happy father's day to every dad, you're great people and we really love you and appreciate you.

I'm Free!

Hey peeps-
I just wanted y'all to know that I have a million different summer camps this summer, but I am actually free after 12 the entire upcoming week (I'm volunteering @ the library from 9-12). So I would be more than happy if someone would give me a call. I'd love to do something this week. And even if you're not free, just give me a call to talk for a while. It's summer, so we're supposed to spend more time together, not less! So call me anytime, and I'd be happy to talk to ya.

ImaginOn!

As many of you know, I am taking a daylong camp this week and a week in July at ImaginOn! I am having sooo much fun. I have met the funniest people and learned some really cool things that I didn't know before. I think that the camp makes me better as an actor and as a person. And like I said, the people there are soooo cool! Especially the boys, which is really weird. I mean, most guys (not including you, CJ) are absolute jerks, especially in drama, because it's a chance for them to act stupid. But the guys there are funny and nice and they are really trying hard in the camp and they're very talented. My mom says they're all gay, but I definitely don't think so. Because, as Kebba has taught me, a guy is not necessarily gay just because he's a decent person.

WOO- HOO!!!!

YAHOO! SCHOOL'S OUT! I really am going to miss all of you soooo much. I love you guys! Y'all are so cool and Sarah I had so much fun at your sleepover! I luved your bus stop (my bus is so ghetto) and I'm really regretting that I forgot to tell CJ that I luv him (not for reals peeps it's just an inside joke!). That would have been so funny! Please keep in touch over the summer! We'll definitely have to get together and do something. If you have my #, please call me ANYTIME. If you don't have it, then get in contact with someone who does b/c there is no way I'm putting my # on my blog for the world to see. :) Teehee. Toodles for now!

You know, of course, that my puppy doggy is the bestest doggy in the world. Shelby is 100% unique and looks different from every doggy, but I wanted a pic of her on my blog, and I don't know how to do that... But I looked on the Internet and this doggy looked more like Shelby than any other dog out there, so it'll have to do. I hope y'all will get a chance to see the real Shelby in person.

Oliver!

My friends and I are going to audition for a production of Oliver! at Theatre Charlotte next Sunday (June 3). Wish us luck!

Phantom of the Opera

I found this pic on the Internet (it's a great place for finding stuff) and decided to post it for my friends Sarah and Kebba Joy and anyone else who loves "The Phantom of the Opera". I saw a few other pics, but they were really small and got blurry when I tried to make them bigger.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HANNAH BANANA!!

One of my bestest friends, Hannah Banana, is having her birthday party today. I can't make it and I feel horrible about missing out. So I just wanted to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY BANANA and I love you.

WHOA!

This is one of my friends, Graham, wearing Glinda's dress. I stole this pic from Kelsey's blog, but how could I help it? I had to have it at the top of my blog. Poor Graham. But don't worry- at least it's your color. :)

Pic on our Program

Amazingly, I was able to find the exact photo that was pictured on the program for the play. For those of you not involved in the play, this is what the pic on our program looked like. For those of you involved in the play, this is what the pic on the program looked like in color. Cool, huh?

HAPPY MOMMY'S DAY!!!!

I would like to say happy mother's day to every mama out there, old and new. Know that we appreciate you SO much and wouldn't be anywhere without your guiding hand. And thank you, Mommy, for getting me a bouquet and taking a gazillion pics of our play! If anyone cares, my Daddy got my Mommy a bouquet of flowers for mother's day and we're all going to Friendly's later! Yea!!!!

It's over. We all worked our butts off for 5 months+, and it's over. I can't believe it. Now there's nothing left, no proof whatsoever how hard we worked except for memories. Well, and pics. And programs. And yellow bricks. And T-shirts...

This is a pic from the Wizard of Oz. Pretty, huh? Of course, I think it's gorgeous, but that's just because it took me forever to figure out how to post pics.

HOORAY!!!

We did "The Magical Land of Oz" last night!!! We perform it again tonight at 5. It was so marvelous, and everyone lost their stomach butterflies early on. It was really scary when we broke a mike, though. It was supposed to be given to Dorothy, but it was PITCH BLACK backstage. The girl bumped into someone and broke it. I don't know how we managed to fix it, but everything went pretty uphill from that point on. I loved doing the play. I'll be so sad once it's over. Oh, and whoever said acting isn't a sport doesn't know what they were talking about. I thought I was going to drown in my own sweat.

The Magical Land of Oz is TODAY!!!!! I absolutely can't wait. We've all worked sooooo hard and I know it's gonna be awesome. Lots of people underestimate it, but the cast and crew know how good it's gonna be. Remember, it's tonight at 7 and tomorrow at 5. It's gonna be wonderful, because it's the only thing that Mrs. Baucom hasn't had the chance to screw up.
