EPIC FAIL

I did a really great job at Blog Every Day in August, didn't I? Actually, no I didn't at all. I am a fail. Fail fail fail fail fail.

I've decided that my first choice school is Emerson. I toured there last Wednesday and just fell in love with their program. It's basically everything I like about all the schools I've toured rolled into one giant package of awesome. So of course, that means it's really hard to get into. At first, I was like, "Oh, I'm not going to get in. It's totally pointless. I shouldn't even apply." But now, I've decided to come at it with a more positive attitude. I have the test scores to get in; that's no problem, and on the common app's info section that's the only area that's marked as "very important". And everyone who's read my essay for their Theatre Ed program seems to like it (though I am reluctant to show a lot of people because it's SO freaking dorky) and even I'm pretty confident about it. My GPA isn't the best, but according to Collegeboard.com's stats, 10% of students that go there were in my bracket and 5% were below mine so I'm not entirely hopeless.

It kind of sucks how my friends are like, "I AM NEVER GETTING INTO COLLEGE DLFKJADLKFJADS I ONLY HAVE A 3.9999 GPA!!!!111!!!11!" I'm kind of being a hypocrite about this because I was just like that too, but having a positive change in attitude is hard being surrounded by all of that negativity. I am not even telling some of my friends that my first choice is Emerson because they will laugh in my face.

But whatever, I'm going to keep going through and try to keep this positive attitude. If I don't get in, then oh well. There are other good schools that have the major I want that I will get into that I like. It's all going to be okay (or at least that's what I'm trying to tell myself).

I am lazy

Today was fun. I visited Wagner and Baruch. I really liked Wagner. I wasn't too crazy about Baruch, but I didn't dislike it. This entry is short because I'm tired as fuck. I promise I'll stop being lazy later.

This is short

Well, I guess I ended up not updating yesterday after all! I had no internet, so it was impossible. My mother actually has NO IDEA what wifi is. I mean, really?

I am going to write a real blog entry tomorrow. For realz. I am going to Wagner and Baruch so that will be fun. Woohoo!

Sleeeeeeepp

Okay, THIS is the August 7th post. Because I didn't forget to do it yesterday and didn't do it at 2:00 this morning.

I have like the weirdest sleep schedule ever right now. Seriously, yesterday I went to bed at 9:00 AM and woke up at 4:30 PM, then I went to bed at 10:30 PM and woke up at 2:00 AM this morning and then I went to bed at 1:00 PM today and woke up at 3:30 PM. I hope that I'll be able to sleep like a normal person tonight because I have to wake up and go to church tomorrow.

So, as some of you may know there is a production of Rent going on right now at the Hollywood Bowl directed by NPH and starring Skylar Astin and Aaron Tveit (and a bunch of other people like Vanessa Hudgens and some Pussycat Dolls chick who I've heard is surprisingly good but those two are the ones I actually care about). I am dyinggg watching the Youtube videos from last night. Ugh I wish I could be there.

That's it. I'm going to try to have something up tomorrow but I might not be able to because I'm going to my mom's apartment and she probably has like freaking dial-up or something. So, I get an excuse since I'm telling in advance, right? Even if not, I say I do, so yeah.

Gimme a head with hair

OKAY TECHNICALLY IT IS AUGUST 7TH BUT WE'LL JUST IGNORE THAT RIGHT NOW. Let's pretend I'm on the west coast! I didn't miss a day there!

I was planning on talking about my hair because I don't really have anything else interesting to talk about (not that this is particularly interesting either). I was looking through a photo album from when I was three and four and I realized that my hair color then is basically the hair color I have now. So, it's like what the fuck? Why couldn't my hair have just stayed that color so I wouldn't have to dye it? I think that's really inconsiderate, hair. Change back so I don't have to do my roots before school starts.

When I first realized this, I thought that I had made some sort of profound link between my hair color and going back to my childhood. But then I realized I don't mind growing up. I'm actually looking forward to going to college and shit. I just want my old hair color back because that color looks better on me than brown. It also used to be straight. But nope, it had to get curly too. I hate my hair.

Day 5!

Yeeeah man, I made it to day 5 on this blog! I think that's the longest I've ever made on any blog on here. So yay me!

I went to my dad's softball game tonight. They lost. But they always lose so it was all good. Then my dad and I drove to Purchase since it was only five miles away. The campus looks pretty bitchin'. I'm excited to actually go on a tour there for real and not at 10:15 at night! Woohoo!

I think there's a cricket in my room. GO AWAY, CRICKET! Are crickets green because I saw a green bug in my room before? All I know is it keeps making noises and I don't like it.

I think I might have some sort of idea of what to do for my common app essay! So that's exciting! I actually wrote the middle of my essay for Emerson's Theatre Ed program the other night and it turned out it was already 457 words and the essay is 500-700. So once I get the beginning and end, I should be good to go!

That's basically it. I should start writing these things before 11 every night. Oh well.

YO FUTURE ME! SUP GURL?

Today was another boring day. But boring is okay, I guess. Hey, you know what I just realized? I bet that a few years from now, I'm going to look back on this very blog and be like, "WOW, I WAS AN IDIOT!" I recently went to go look back on my old LJ so I could lock all of my old entries because apparently fourteen-year-old me didn't realize what an idiot she was and that some of that stuff did not belong on the internet. So now it is off the internet, at least publicly. But yeah, I wonder how I'll feel about myself three years from now. I'll probably read this and be like, "SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU MORON, GOD!" So if that happens, hiiii future me!

I made my video today. Here it is!
