She Lives!

I'm alive everyone! No need to panic!

I made it though my first day with only 3 and a half hours of sleep. :) and I'm still going. I think tomorrow is going to be just as bad, but maybe not because I am going to have a break in the middle of the day.

Today was hectic, stressed out in the morning, and 20239580487252 jillion things to do in the evening. Sometimes I even wonder how I do it.

• Morning Rehearsal 7 a.m.
• Rube Goldberg Project
• Quiz in Math [Not so bad]
• Ensemble Rehearsal
• Culminating Project [Completed]
• Deliver Scholarship Law Essay
• After-School Ensemble Rehearsal
• After-School Regular Rehearsal
• Fish Camp [4:30-6:00]
• RUN to Maserson Park for BBQ
• William's House
• Travel to All American at 7:45
• Return home at 9:45

I know I have work to do right now, but I really just need to go to bed.

I think I'm gonna do that right about now.

I went to All American tonight, and it was the bomb. I did great. Now if only I could keep it up.

I did a lot of independent things despite the pounding headache I had from start to finish of the class. But I think this is the best I have done in a while. ALL OF THAT ON 3 hours of sleep! GO ME!

Demons!

Ok, so I was having an ok day today, until I woke up at 4:30 by accident, surprisingly not from pain, but just from my internal body clock going off saying, "Get up woman."

I went to Gymnastics last night, and I was so happy again! I have been getting faster at my flips and stuff, cleaner. Ever since that one day, I have had it downhill, but I am slowly regaining my abilities.

The sad thing is that I think I got a little carried away; I am so sore right now in my legs. We were doing stretches today, and it felt like someone was slicing my legs open, and setting them on fire.

Yeah.

It was that bad.

I don't know, it was weird.. I think I must have pulled some muscles.

I think I have eaten about 3 Lemon-Berry slushes in the past 3 days; so what? That makes--one a day? Oh wow, they are good, and they have REAL strawberries in them. YUM.

My eyes are getting heavy, so you know it is time for me to go.

Kiss of the Dragon

Today was a peculiar day, in which I slipped a little more into madness.

I did manage to advance to the 6th page of "Only Human" though.

Can you believe this?? I mean.. I only have 2 more lines!! I have been working on this piece for almost 3 months! It is the fastest I have ever completed one! I didn't really want to sit at the piano and play, but I felt I needed to get that out of the way so I could move on to other things.

Whenever I am not able to figure out things, or finish them, I get so irritated; I am a perfectionist, you see, and that is why so much of my things have to be in tip top shape. Of course, me being so lazy and all, it is not always going to be perfect, but I REALLY try to get everything done to suit my needs.

I cooked some weird sausages tonight. Swedish. The way I cooked and prepared them was really neat. I think. It had a little oriental kick to it..

Not bad actually.

Oh the gore! Oh the blood! Oh the--needles?

I saw this movie about 3 times, and today was the first time I fully watched it. You know me, I love me some action-packed kick butt movies, but I saw some stuff in there.. Jeez. They don't hold back! This one guy gets ripped in half by a flamming laundry shoot, another gets his neck cracked in half by a full body-slam, and another gets chopsticks shoved through his neck. OH! And I can't forget the best of them all.. At the end, the ****** not going to say, because "You might not have seen it yet" drowns in their own blood, by it all rushing to their head.. and staying there.

Gruesome..

This is caused by Jet Li sticking these special "Acupuncture Needles" (Spell Check) and sticking one in a certain part in the back of their head. Then, the person is instantly paralyzed, and the blood continues to flow to the brain, where it stays.

Jet Li says, "Blood from your whole body goes to your head... it stops there... never comes down. But soon, it will come out of your nose, your ears, and even your eyes... and then... you will die... painfully... This is called the 'Kiss of the Dragon'."

Love that Jet Li. He could be a great story-teller.

Yes.. by now, as you probably may have guessed, Jackie Chan is my favorite Asian Actor. He is so funny, and his jokes aren't corney like some around. I love him with other comedians. I am just laughing my guts out. Hey look! Without needles!

You know, Jackie Chan made a cartoon show about himself. Now THAT'S rich. I have to admit though.. I liked it. :D

How Depressing.

I just made this REALLY long post, and it didn't show up. I actually made it Friday, but it hasn't showed up yet; the post editor says that it's there, but I don't see it. Can you guys see it?

This weekend, was great. I spent it with a couple of friends, and we did a bunch of silly things. Too bad I didn't take some good pictures. Sorry!

I watched a bunch of movies with them: Pirates of the Caribbean 3, The Hills Have Eyes (1), The Cave, White Girls, and Black Diamond, but while that one was on, I was too busy playing Uno Attack™. From what I saw, it looked pretty depressing, and gorey. Just the way I like it.

I always have loved to watch movies. I don't know what it is about that, I just do. Like the Nike commercials say.. "Just do it" I think it is my desire to learn. You can learn great things from film believe it or not, and all the while it is corrupting your mind into oblivion. When I was a little girl, I remember learning how fog was formed by watching "Home Improvement." I have never forgotten that. I guess being a couch potato isn't so bad after all!

I am suprised I didn't catch a cold; it was raining today, and we were walking outside in the rain. So much fun can come out of that.

PIRATES III was good. I saw my husband on screen. There is not much I can say about it without ruining it. What I CAN say though is that it was good, yet extremely long. Approximately 3 hours. It was good though, and at first, I admit, it was a little slow, but then it picked up when all the plot was set. Make sure you go to a good quality movie theatre too, because I think I missed some important stuff in it because the sound was a little off in the beginning, and I could barely hear their words, and in the middle, the screen kept going black. That was probably because of the movie projector; the movie was so long, the battery was running out!

FRIDAY'S GYMNASTICS session was really good. I accomplished a faster flip-flop, along with better reasoning for that annoying arch in my upper back. That arch is hereditary, and I got it from my mom's side. It is a good thing sometimes when it comes to Yoga, and all those other contortionist type things, but when doing backflips, it makes it harder to bring myself over, so I had to add a trick in. One of my coaches noticed that bothersome arch and she told me a way to avoid landing wrong because of it. When I was visiting, I tried to straight flip but I chickened out. I later ended up doing it, but it was more of a twist than a flip. Weird huh?
