so....in choir today we had to "discover our diaphragm".  i thought it sounded kinda funny!  we had to pant like dogs to do so!  i also thought that was kinda funny!  well our teacher/director is pretty dang funny himself.  and so is his wife!  i am so glad it's the weekend...i can't wait 'till tomorrow!!!  oh and tyler a senior asked me to sit with him today so booyah!  and i'm about to leave to go to the football game in a few minutes so if anyone wants to talk to me feel free to do so...quickly.  okay there is really no point to this "thought" i just liked "DISCOVER YOUR DIAPHRAGM."

okay so today i had an "audition" for choir.  it's for placement in the proper section...blah blah blah.  well the response i got from the brilliant mrs. freeman was surprisingly...good!  i thought i would get some critiquing but i didnt...that kinda scares me but it makes me really happy!  she said i had a HUGE range...which is true.  and she said she could tell who my mother was.  but i'm not a soprano like her like they thought!  i can't wait till next year because i want to be in concert choir really badly!  oh yeah and i think i'm auditioning for the musical if possible...i REALLY want to do that.  i love musical theatre...it's so dang fun!  oh yeah...i'm confused.  i say that all the time because i feel like that a lot.  but i haven't been confused over the summer, but now that school's here and i'm seeing some of the people i used to talk to and stuff i'm wondering who i really want in my life.  that sounds funny!  i've made a new friend and she's really nice...she said she knew tyler and i figured out where i knew her from...so cool!  well anyway i'm kinda tired so i guess that's all.

PEACE OUT

Number 10:

"If I was a sculptor
But then again, no"
--Elton John's 'Your Song'
(lyrics by Bernie Taupin)
Well, then stop bringing it up already! This line has been wasting our time for three decades. Number 9:"I love you like
A fat kid loves cake"
--50 Cent's '21 Questions'
Gangsta, schmangsta -- brotha should write Hallmark cards. Number 8:"There were plants
And birds
And rocks
And things"
--America's 'Horse With No Name'
Like in New York, nouns are scarce in the desert, and apparently our poor soft rockers simply ran out of them. Too bad they didn't consult Michael Stipe: "There were plants and birds and rocks and prouds."

Number 7:

"Time is like a clock
in my heart"
--Culture Club's 'Time (Clock of the Heart)'
Awesome analogy. Time is soooo like a clock, because, well, it's freakin' time! Number 6:"I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel"
--Natalie Imbruglia's 'Torn'
(lyrics by Anne Preven)
Can you say filler line? Like, oh, we get it, this is how you feel -- because it's been so darn long since you told us how you were all out of faith. Number 5:"Now you're amazed
By the VIP posse
Steppin' so hard
Like a German Nazi"
--Vanilla Ice's 'Play That Funky Music'
Dude took the original song's "white boy" lyrics a little too literally. Good thing he specified German though, because those Austrian Nazis were way too light on their feet.

 

 Number 4:"Your butt is mine"
--Michael Jackson's 'Bad'
The worst opening line in pop history. However, we hear it's huge in Dubai.

 

Number 3:

"I don't like cities
But I like New York
Other places
Make me feel like a dork"
--Madonna's 'I Love New York'
So, so true. Which is of course why Paris is so famously known as the City of Dorks.

 

Number 2:"War is stupid
And people are stupid"
--Culture Club's 'War Song'
Boy George again, and this time he's illin' like Bob Dylan. We wrote a song just like this in seventh grade, but the next line was, "And your mom is stupid."

 

Number 1:"Coast to coast
L.A. to Chicago"--Sade's 'Smooth Operator'
Sade was born in Nigeria and grew up in London, but her biggest hit reveals that she's clearly not a smooth navigator.

well today was my first day of freakin high school.  i only have ONE class with one of my friends in it and you know what i am not liking life too much at the moment.  but i love my geography teacher...and pretty much all my teachers except for the one that teaches geometry...she reminds me of hitler and my geography teacher really looks like brock off of that show reba and he coaches football....and girls softball.  i'm not excited about choir because we are only singing in unison, there is not a single guy in it-no low voices at all!  and i'm not really sure that those girls sing that well...i know some don't.  i love the teachers though i've known them forever and of course they know me because...yup you guessed it...everyone knows my mother.  :P  i am so mad right now i don't even want to think about waking up tomorrow and this morning i almost cried but i didn't because no good could come from that.  i hate this so much...but i hope it gets better.  i miss my friends.

hola kiddo's!  i'm at my mom's work and i am bored...SO BORED.  but this computer is so NICE!!!  It's like a 16-or-so inch flatscreen.  well i don't have too much else to say.  just thought i would say that i want this computer so bad.  and i want lunch.  and i want to STOP reading now.  and i want my friends.  i want a lot of stuff.
