WORD!

May 16 2006
I'm happy because my mom is thinking about letting me go to the Dashboard Confessional concert. I'm an only child who doesn't go to large events, so it's a pretty cool thing for her to let me. Of course, there's always the chance she'll say no, which I can live with. Yeah, I <33333 them, so it'd be pretty awesome. :-)

Spring Break

March 26 2006
I guess that means it's party time.

Today is not my day

March 13 2006

i guess 203 remarks was my peak. now i can't get anymore.


so i just had my first "collision". nothing bad at all, but it scared me so bad the second i walked in the door i just started bawling. i dont feel like typing the whole story....so if you want to know just ask.


man though, that made my crappy day way worse.


so now i dont feel good, im all teary-eyed, and its about to tornado. not my night.

Oh, wow.

Got quite a few comments on that last post. Phusebox record? I dunno, but I'm guessing so.

Ok, this is rather amazing.

February 16 2006

itunes is like having a "billion songs downloaded" contest. so, if you download the billionth song you win a 20-inch iMac, 10 60GB iPods (5 white/ 5 black) and a $10,000 iTunes music card. And here's the most amazing prize. Apple is going to start a scholarship to a world renowned music school and if you download the one billionth song it will be named after you. so like, there could be a "Sara Read Scholarship"


ha. that would be so neat.



If only....

If I had paid more attention in spanish I would say "36" in spanish. But alas, since I didn't pay attention I will say this:


36 days.


{by the way, the title of my entry also happens to be the title of the ABC family original movie that was on last night. It was sad. Unless you've seen it already, don't watch it. Because it was sad.}


the end.

January 11 2006

i have 51 "friends" on my phusebox. and i can only count a very very small amount of them that are actually my friends.


makes me feel not good i guess.


yeah, ive been having one of those days where i feel about 1 inch tall.

The mysterious ways of captain obvious....

January 07 2006

yeah, that would be me.


well pretty much i just got to tell you guys this:


about 2 minutes ago i decided that fresh fruit will bring world peace.


i would say "don't ask" but you know you're curious.

Something about airplanes....

December 31 2005

Wow. It's amazing what you miss when you don't check your phusebox in about a month or so. Let's see if I can recap my life up until this point....


I went to midstate, did awful.


I had chair tryouts, did awful.


I just barely scraped by on midterms, due to my complete lack of studying.


I became very unhappy with a friend of mine, and have since seen the error in my ways, sort of.


I got a puppy {see picture}


IMG_0004.jpg


(she's a dachsund)


I got a camera


I got one of these:


White iPod set


which i am madly in love with


i became completely in love with this:



I became part of a "crew" of sorts


I went to the most drama filled christmas part there ever was


I found out I'm going to NYC and I either get to see Rent or Wicked ON BROADWAY. Which fills me up with joy.


And overall I've just had an awesome break.


Maybe you'll leave me a remark?


Maybe?


Because I probably won't be on for another month or so before I check it, so it would be nice to come back to some remarks.

December 06 2005

On the way home, this car hears my confessions. I think tonight I'll take the long way. This weather. The wind outside is biting. It has left me feeling tired & exposed. You've been asking me to bleed. It seems these kinds of questions come too easy to you now. Your lack of shame comes naturally. I should not be surprised. I should have seen it sooner.


You expect me to apologize for things you've done wrong. While you're inciting others. You're owning up to nothing and I wish that I was gone, because you're not going anywhere. this damp air is fighting my defroster. My sighs they ring victorious & fog this tinted glass. It's clouded and so is my head.


The hint of these new tears are sharp I try to hold them back. Its useless. I am useless against them. They are beating me with ease. On the way home this car hears my confessions. I think tonight i'll take the long way.

the dnnnedn


thats supposed to say end. hehe.

...and the plot thickens....

November 26 2005
mid-state auditions saturday. i'm not going to make it past the scale barrier. meh.

So I'm back....for now anyway....

November 25 2005

so i'm laying in my bed, pretty much in a coma at about 7:45. and i hear ever so slightly the ringing of a telephone. and it keeps ringing. and it goes right through the message, and then the phone rings again. so i eventually, after like 4 or 5 times, wake up and i stumble to the phone, with my eyes half open. so naturally, the phone rings again and i answer it. and it's my dad. he says "get in the shower we're going shopping." i say (with the sound of "your crazy") "ITS 7:45 IN THE MORNING! HAVE YOU LOST IT??"  so my dad responds with "no, actually, your mom and i have been up since 5 going from store to store."


and now i'm about to go hop in the shower. in case you didn't pick up from the story, which you probably didn't, i HATE shopping. i can do it, but on days like today when 3/4 of america is out shopping, i want to kill someone, and i always go home really really really not happy.



so, wish me luck as i wind my way through the chaos they call the store. and let's hope i can keep my temper down.



-sara

Hmm

November 08 2005
don't think theres going to be much more phusebox for me. no one reads it, so theres really no point. however, i will probably update anyway, just because i contradict myself like that.

Owned.

November 07 2005

so, this is what our band played last year for concert festival/ spring concert. everytime you hear a violin, that was the part our clarinets played, and the clarinet parts too. now let me tell you, playing a VIOLIN part on a CLARINET is hard. really hard. so yes, listen to it, the end is the most amazing part. prepare to be owned. also, let me tell you we took the end quite a bit faster than the royal philharmonic orchestra, which is amazing.



Well after all isn't that all that I'm after....

November 03 2005

this girl i know, well mostly my moms friend, but i know her daughter well anyway this is her little story.


about 5-6 months ago her dad killed himself out of no where. totally unexpected. about a month or so after she came out as a lesbian, and then got the crap beat out of her. she started cutting, and huffing. and a few days ago she killed herself.


now, imagine being her mom. she loses her husband, out of nowhere. she had to watch her daughter slowly kill herself, and now has lost her whole world.



so yeah, your life doesn't suck. so stop saying that, because it's not. stupid.

So, it's sad this doesn't suit you now. And me, fresh out of rope...

November 01 2005

--brand new--


"so wear me like a locket around your throat, i'll way you down, i'll watch you choke. you look so good in blue, you look so good in blue."


today was good. and i can totally be completely happy with good. especially considering i usually get less than good. i am doing everything in my power to keep any sadness. if i work at it, i can surely get there.


i checked out a fun book today. or i think it is fun. most people would be like "umm....ok?" but i'm like "WHOOPIEEE!!!" (yes, whoopie. shut up). i almost checked out this other book, but, alas i did not. however, the library isnt going anywhere anytime soon. so i can always go and check it out some other time. like tommorow.


anywho, i am feeling kind of left out. im not, not by any means, but i feel that way. anyway, i think i should depart.


leave me a remark? please?


me

Word.

October 31 2005

yeah, ive been marching 3  years and never in my life have i heard judges tapes so good. holy crap it was amazing. i mean, in every tape we heard "low reeds look awesome" or "the woodwinds sound amazing" or "those mellophones were smokin". and at the end they were like "im so glad i got to hear a band like that. absolutely amazing, best band we've seen all day. great everything. the marching, the music, im really really impressed. sign me up for lessons right now!!!"


makes me smile.

It's only you, beautiful, or I don't want anything...

October 29 2005

--Brand New--


We won. Not only did we win in our division, but we got the highest score out of EVERY band. we win, they lose.


holla.


It's not chugga chugga its chugga chugga- Mr Steinhelber (sp?)

October 27 2005


thanks to aaron for showing me how to do that.


but yes, anyway, no more band practices. we have one more chance to own, and thats at vmi, the macdaddy of all band competitions.


so, wish us luck.


pretty sure grace spent the better part of lunch trying to say "whatre you doing?" like me, but, theres only one me. she shall fail!


and pretty sure mady and i argued for like 30+ minutes last night about whether or not i was pretty. (i was against, she was for)


AND we got to play with FIRE today in chemistry.


the world has been good today.


also, congrats to nathan and rachael.
