That's all for now...I'll probably post again after I come home.
Well anyway, I've been inspired to try and blog again (as if I ever successfully did) by reading Emily's livejournal. It sounds like such a good idea but I just can't commit...
Nothing much has been going on with me lately (which could explain why I don't ever update...). I'm finally done with applying to college, so now I just need to wait until someone takes me. In the meantime I also need to beg various organizations for their money. And I don't even know what I want to be when I grow up.
That book on your left is a goodun. Well it is so far. I'm only like 100 pages in. I've been reading a lot lately, trying to pass time at school. Speaking of school, as of last week I am officially in my last semester of high school. That is so refreshing to think about. Last semester ever. I have to say that high school has been an extremely frustrating experience in general. I won't say that I didn't learn anything, because that would be ignorant and a lie, and a lot of my frustration is because of my own choices, but I will say that a lot of time was wasted. The health projects I spent hours on, the excessively long tutorials on how to light a bunsen burner ( in 9th and 12th grade), etc. I could have been developing some sort of talent at something useful. Not that I would have, given the opportunity, but it's nice to assume I would. It just seems as though I've lost sight of what's important in the last few years. I don't even know what I like anymore. I guess I could have managed my time better.
Jeez this blogging idea was great. I feel so mature now that I've whined about high school...
Thanks Morrissey.
If money were no object, which five luxury items would you rush right out and buy?
Submitted by lorilyn.
Hm, let's see, I'd probably buy a KEYBOARD, because apparently the one i ordered on Wednesday isn't coming because they canceled the order. Now i have to wait a bit.
Well, I'm leaving for California at 2am tomorrow. My flight isn't until around 8am so I'll be waiting around for a bit. I've never flown before, so I'm kinda excited. I like long car rides, so I don't really think I'll have a problem with flying (yes i realize that there is a major difference between a long drive, and a long plane ride, with all of the flying and whatnot).
I'll be back on Saturday, and I'll be sure to buy people some crap at the Disney store.
What's your favorite blend or brand of coffee or tea?
Earl Grey: Twinings
Chai: Yogi
Orange Pekoe: Red Rose Canadian (the bags are bigger)
Seasonal and fruity: Celestial Seasonings
I haven't even had many other brands than that. I just drink those brands most often. And coffee...whatever isn't gross. It's usually how you make the coffee, rather than where you buy the beans. For me at least. Cause I don't really know the difference.
Who or what do you really love?
...I need to work on that. Lately I've been loving to buy things, which isn't really like me. I know why I'm doing it though. So it'll change. Pretty soon I won't feel the need to distract myself from my actual life with pretty jewelry or ridiculously priced stuffed animals...
Hmmm...
Oh yeah! I've figured out that I can CROSS POST my blog entries to livejournal.com from vox! Which is good news, because I only know a few people on vox, and despite all of my annoying tries to get people to join vox, only 3 people have. So now maybe I can feel like I have friends...
I've been looking into colleges a lot lately, because as of like three weeks ago, my mailbox (and inbox) have been jammed full of gajillions of college brochures and emails. I don't even know where to begin looking, so at the moment I've only requested more information from schools that I already know are good. Uhhh. I don't even know what I'm going to college for. I was so sure that I'd go into music. I don't think I will now. My first, and lamest reason, is how competitive it is. I know I can be pretty good, but I just get so nervous. I've been kind of shy lately. Second is that I don't know what I'd do with music after college. Which is also lame. I'm basically making excuses not to go into music. Which is somewhat upsetting.
Speaking of music, you should go listen to Sondre Lerche. If you're a Rufus Wainwright fan, I think you'll like him. His voice isn't as amazing as Rufus' but I still think he's very good. He's also a cutie.
Happy Valentine's Day!--annie
P.S.

Artist:Suburban Kids with Biblical Names
Song: Loop Duplicate My Heart
Well, it's been awhile since I've posted something real (other that vox watch or QOTD), which is probably because of the lack of readers. Not that the...three or so that I have aren't cool.
Started new classes today. Physics, Chinese 3, Symph Winds (same), Jazz(same), Environmental Science, Health. Fun. I think this might be a less demanding semester compared to the past one (AP History...). Chinese 3 might be harder than the past two years of Chinese, and Physics might get tricky, but nothing I can't work around.
Oh yeah, after racking my brain for ideas of what i might want to be when i grow up, i have come to the conclusion that i might want to be...a dentist! MIGHT. I like teeth. And science. And Music. And English. And Math. And History. So yeah, I don't know, i really have to think about it. Cause if i really do want to do it, I'll have to plan my next year's schedule with that in mind, and that will certainly impact my decision of which schools to apply to. I could always go to UMASS then i could switch to whatever. I don't know though. I might get bored as a dentist. And i think it can be gross. With all the...cavities and shit. Beh. Ok, maybe dentistry isn't for me. But it's definitely something to think about...
My new issue of Paste magazine arrived today. It seems pretty skimpy compared to previous publications. Well, skimpy as in length. Not like...porn. Paste is a music magazine. But i guess the fact that it features THE SHINS makes up for the skimpiness.
Dyed my hair yesterday. It's a lot darker. The box said it would be "Toffee", which is a light brown, but for some reasosn it turned out almost back. Oh well, at least it's shiny.
