Heel-o! It's been a while! Pardon the lengthed absence from here. My computer crapped out, and I've been forced to, only rarely, resort to my Window's 98 computer. Yes. I kid you not, it is that old. And it works, to some extent. But it takes FOREVER to do anything on this thing! ANYTHING! Loading a page is like, a 20 minute wait. It was a risk even trying to type this out. XP

BUT ANYWAYS! The Crucible. Right, I put that in the title, right? *peers upward* Yeep, so I did. So, our school is putting on two plays this fall. The Crucible, and The Musical Comedy Murders of 1940. I'm sure you've all heard of the one in my title, and it's the play I'm going to be doing tech work on. Which, also, means I've sold my soul to the theatre. OMG I'M A WITCH! lol. So if I'm busy, or not on for extented periods of time, it's either the play, insane schoolwork, or a combination of the two. It's not that I haven't been drawing stuff. I HAVE. LIKE CRAZY. But don't have enough finished to really take the time to go to the library and get it scanned in. SOON!

Also? My story. That's the big, main thing I've been working on the most as of now. Andrew and Votch, (and a hell of a lot of other people you'll be seeing here shortly), have been throwing me screwy curve balls every time I sit down to add more! XP I was sitting upstairs earlier, just today! And was thinking about making individual, nice profiles for everyone, when I was struck with a thought.

A name! It hit me like a thunderbolt! The name of my story, (and, even as I type, I'm doing an outline for the cover), is going to be called:

"Black Light"

When I have more, I'll be sure to show you! And I'm always open to any questions you might have! See ya round!

School was actually...fun today! This morning was the first day of school, and I simply LOVE all my new teachers! And classes. The only problem being, in like, all of my classes, I hardly know anyone. Except people I don't like, and a few acquaintences. Bleh.

BUT ASIDE FROM THAT! I'm extremely excited for this school year! I've got like, super awesome classes, (intro to psych, drama and speech, orchestra, choir, to name a few)

Tommorow is our actual FIRST day, cause today was a half day, but that so doesn't matter! I'm SOO excited!

I'm determined that this year, I'm gonna put 100% effort into every assignment, into everything I do, and be the absolute best that I can be, for ME, and no one else. To learn and get the entire experiance, and make everything worth while. No more half ass-ing everything, not caring, just scraping by with minimum effort. Cause I could easily be a straight A student if I give a crap, and this time, I DO.

Ah, feels good to say that. That was mostly for myself. GO ME!

I'm also curious: What are some other people's classes they're taking this year? Any fun suggestions for the future?

Ok, so I've got a quick question for anyone who's bothered to read my Amaranthine Tea Kettle entries:

If I wrote an actual story for Andrew and Votch, would anyone be interested in reading it?

I'm pretty sure that I'm gonna go ahead and do so anyways, but I was just wondering.*shrugs*

Also, I can now proudly say that I am not a slacking bum who lies around the house all summer! I'VE GOT A JOB! YUP! It's the truth! It's this odd little store called Bivouac that sells an odd combination of camping gear and over priced college fashion. So bad, that the saying around the store is, "If you can afford to buy from Bivouac, you don't need to work at Bivouc" yeah....BUT NOW I GETS THE MONEYS!!!!

And now for the depresseing part of this journal, and why I'm writing this before 4:30:

My cat ran away.

We don't know how long she's been gone, but my mom called me at work sayin she was coming to pick me up early, and we're goin home. Apparently, the smart little bugger figured out how to open the door from the sunroom to outside. I've already gone around the whole bloody block searching for her, but to no avail.

Also, we called the humane society, and they said they don't pick up cats. Like, what the hell? Is that like, the biggest dog over prejudice like, ever? "oh sure, go catch all the stray dogs you see so they don't get hit by the big mean cars, but let all the stray cats just become road paste. No one will notice." It's disgusting. I'm upset. I can't talk anymore.

Hello anyone bored enough to be looking at this journal! Damn, I seriously never update this thing, do I?

WELL, here's the deal: Starting tommorow, I'm gonna be up north for an entire week plus a day, as the title of this thing implies, so I'm obviously not going to be on during that time. It's just a teeny cottage up by Mackinaw Island, and like, feet away from Lake Superior. PIMPIN', AMIRIGHT?!

I hope that by the time I get back, I'll have a bunch of stuff to dump on here, including photos and HOPEFULLY my next part of my Amaranthine Tea Kettle entry. I won't have much choice anyways...

OOO! And when I get back,(August 7th, for those who fail at math during the summer as I do), I'm going to see Boys Like Girls in concert! YAYZ! I think that Metro Station, (whom I don't particulary care for) and Good Charolette are opening for them too, so it should be fairly interesting.


TILL THEN, TTFN! TA TA FOR NOW!

Ok, so for people who didn't see my last entries, from June 23rd till July 7th, I was away at Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp, which is in Michigan, and had a freaking blast. I'm sorry to all the people who is seemed like I was ignoring! I forgot to put up a new journal telling people why I wasn't responding! *smacks forhead*

But anyways, now that I'm back, until Sunday, the only thing you're gonna be seeing from me is probably gonna be that Amaranthine Tea Kettle contest that is consuming my life. *IF* I had been smart enough to start *BEFORE* I left, then this wouldn't be a problem.

Except it is. And I don't even have a full page yet.

This does not mean, however, that I don't have other things started/close to finishing them. My attention is just currently all consumed. So you'll definately see something on Sunday, if not sooner!

(and I am NOT distressed, despite what the decieving little mood smiley may lead to you believe otherwise. More like sunburnt. And hungry. )
