Last night, I had a dream that I got an F on a project for my Humanities class in school. Understand that I've been putting all my energy into this project, so I'd better not get anything below a B.
Allie - I think I like Emo!Adam better than Lumberjack!Adam, honestly.
I hate dreaming about things that are stressing me out. I know it's just cause they're on my mind, but I want dreamland to be a happy fun place!
I can totally relate to you guys on the grade thing. In high school, well, I totally slacked off and did the smallest amount of homework possible so I got some A's and B's ... but then when I got to college I realized if I actually did something I could get A's ... so I became a little obsessive about it. I got a B in english one semester that still makes me ill to think about.
There is so much competition in my high school. Even if you get straight A's, you're not nearly the best. I got straight A's the first marking period, and there were literally almost a hundred others who got the same. It's so competitive that when my brother was a senior (he's a freshman in college now), he saw students wearing shirts from colleges they weren't interested in to throw people off. It's terrible.
Wow. It was pretty competitive at my school too ... a lot of people in my area wanted to go to one of the military academys cause we only lived 20 min from Annapolis and there were lots of Navy people in the area. I pretty much knew I wanted to be a teacher and my parents had told me that they weren't paying 30k a year or more to send me to private school to be a teacher, which took some of the pressure off me I guess. Out of the 400 kids in our grade I was #99 and had a 3.7 GPA.
You guys are smart, though ... since you are actually working for your classes. Some of my straight A friends in high school were so naturally smart that they didn't have to study or struggle a lot, which hurt them later cuase they didn't know how to study when they got to a confusing class.
My high school didn't weight advanced classes as much as ALL of the surrounding schools, so people in our grade who were getting straight As in the easiest classes were at the top of the class. I had virtually the exact same grades/SAT scores as one of my friends (in the same classes, since we both had match/science/technology at a governor's school), and she was third in her class and I wasn't even in the top 10% of mine because of the way things were weighted. Kinda sucked
I've fared much better in college, weirdly.
Fantab, no ... I'm a slacker. I went to the store on Thursday but wound up having coffee in the cafe with friends and never got around to buying it. Maybe today when I get tired of taking down my christmas stuff.
Was just watching the "eclipse magazine" show on video.google.com cause it said it mentioned Rent ... the interviews are stuff we've seen before but it had a photo montage, and I didn't recognize this Roger/April scene.
Yeah ... I don't know why I never noticed this one before. That happens with lots of movies ... any time I see a preview after seeing the movie I notice that A) lots of stuff is there that isn't in the movie and B) the important stuff is almost always given away!
I'm excited beyond words for the deleted scenes. "Halloween" and "Goodbye Love" are two of my favorite songs in RENT, and I was disappointed that they weren't in the movie. Still, being able to see them at all on the DVD is gonna be a treat. I think I'm gonna host a party and watch the Roger/Mark catfight from "Goodbye Love" over and over again.
I can't wait for the DVD! I was too disappointed about "halloween" and "goodbye Love" being cut from the movie, but i can't wait to see it!
ahh yess..Roger/Mark catfight, ahhh can't wait!
...i had a REALLY strange dream last night. My entire family was in this broadway show (eww?) and Cheyenne and Adam were sitting on these steps together playing their guitars (on stage w. me and my family) and then started dancing with me and swinging me around while i was it a split [mid-air lol] and then for some reason we wern't in the show anymore and we were watching it and cheyenne was sitting at the piano right behind me. lol...wow i can't even remember the rest...but that was a very confusing dream..
Be prepared, because we'll probably pause every few seconds if Adam and/or Anthony make really cute faces. I did that with a friend watching Phantom...Gerry Butler...yum...
of coarse we will pause you better have a really BIG tv! we are going to need it!

Grrr, I'm angry that there hasn't been any news on Adam since the Tony Danza appearance (and that wasn't even "news," really).
He should, I dunno, utilize MySpace or something.
My TV is decent, but I have uber-loud with thumping bass speakers! We'll literally rock the house.
