I just saw Notes on a Scandal, it was brilliant.
Nothing like listening to Totally F*cked on the way grandma's house. That's what I did earlier today...

I stuffed my face with toffee and M and M's.
I'm writing that e-mail. It's in its awkward stage. It may be there permanently.
Good luck. I have to write a poem using "imagery" and...I don't remember the other requirements. I'll be up for hours, I'm sure. I'm not a huge fan of poems...
eep, poetry! Good luck to you, too!
thanks a lot, luvtheemcee,
writing poems isn't easy.
painting a pretty picture with words,
I can't think of anything more absurd.
Though, this poem doesn't have to rhyme I guess...
No it's not! It's even more difficult than awkward emails! I don't envy you that. But poems don't have to rhyme.
True, maybe I just think better in song...
I just had a really weird dream. I, like, dreamt a tv show or movie, I guess? It was a weird hybrid of Veronica Mars and Dead Like Me (which I've never actually seen, just heard about the concept of) and that new Taye Diggs show. It was about a girl who dies on a school trip, except for some reason her spirit had one day of infinite repetition -- and she could foresee that everyone else WOULD go on, so while she was talking to her friends at school and trying to convince them about what happened or get them to help her, she was actually traumatizing them for the rest of their lives, since they'll ultimately find out that she died earlier that day. In the final repeat that woke me up, she tries to pretend that nothing happened and that she skipped the field trip, and when she realizes that seeing any of her friends or family will f*ck them up forever when the find out about her death, she starts to cry (and I woke up crying). But she still lives the day over again, and she wants to find some way out of it or a way to spend it with the people she loves without driving them insane.
It was really interesting/creepy, but I think that this is a running theme of sorts in my dreams -- being stuck in some sort of time loop and not being able to get out of it. I had one really scary dream or experience -- I'm still not sure which, which adds to the creepiness, where this insane woman entered our unlocked front door while I was sleeping on the couch downstairs and I had a conversation with her to try to make her leave, and then she finally takes the hint, goes to the door, and then comes back and begins the original conversation OVER AGAIN. The exact same words. At which point I freaked out and ran upstairs to get my parents, and when we came back downstairs, if she ever existed, she was gone. It was the single most hair-raising thing that's ever happened to me. I was at the time convinced that it actually happened, but there was never any evidence that it did other than that the door really was unlocked, so it must've been a dream.

I really don't want to go out.
You know what? School is for fools I should SO stay home today.
Wow, I am so beyond tired. And it's supposed to be really really really REALLY cold out. My class is four hours this morning, and it's a film class, so we sit there in the dark and watch movies. I'm going to fall asleep.
Yeah it is like, -15 here today...YES!
Sweetestsiren, that is very creepy and interesting, I almost wish I had some crazy dreams like that...
I finally wrote an overly dramatic poem that's like, 4 lines long and unintentionally intense.
Yay! No school today because it was so cold!

Damn you Mandi.
It' soo cold in my school and this sinus infection sucks. I can't think.
Oh my god it is so cold out that I couldn't breathe. And windy too. I'm so ready for spring.
Today is seriously just not my day. My professor never showed up for my first class, I had a huge fight with my mother over the phone, and then I got back to my room to find out that one of my favorite teachers from high school died this morning.
I'm meeting a friend later at Cosi's for her birthday, so at least I have that to look forward to now.
I think that I have a major paper due on Friday. Hmm.
I have a snow day today. I'm drinking hot Cocoa and watching the Wizard of Oz.
In other news, I start rehearsals for my next show tomorrow.
So I have been looking for Adventures in Babysitting for probably a year...when I was in NY over the summer Blockbuster never had it. I found it at Wal-Mart in the $5.50 bin this weekend! How exciting!
I love having a job where I can do my work at home after 11!
I'm getting DirecTv today...the guy is outside installing it right now. I feel bad for him, it's -20 here with the wind chill. Brrr.
So apparently I just suck at poems...
I was supposed to NOT have a jazz rehearsal today because the teacher couldn't show up, so I made other plans and now of course her conflict is cancelled because of snow so we DO have rehearsal. Ugh.
I wanted a sandwich but it was just too cold to walk over and get one. Now I'm not sure what to eat for lunch but I'm sure as hell not going out. It. is. so. cold.
The power in my school went out during homeroom and we were all sent home 45 minutes later. Apparently, that whole part of town lost power. It was probably because of the cold.
Personally, I had been praying for the pipes in the school to burst (it happens every year, apparently) but this was fine. No Spanish test!
Ah! My dad found Newman-O's at some grocery store near where he works. I'm so happy.
