Here's the deal:

I finally got cable back today! I need to catch up on LOST and The Office now.

So...while I disappeared for a short time I moved. It's kinda hard to get used to. I can't wait to get my room fixed up, but the sad things is that I'll only be in it for a year and a half. Oh well.
I've also managed to get sick. Blah.

Play practice is making me tired. Play practice plus sickness doesn't lead to anything pleasant. During school days I'm trying to learn something and to not fall asleep. And sadly, since I'm walking through school in a daze, one of my relationships has diminished slightly. I wish I could make the person understand that I can't constantly be animated and think everything's so exciting when I can hardly think..... Sigh. It's complicated and I don't feel in the mood for ranting right now.

I bought a book from my Spanish teacher, Mr. Shockley. It's a collection of poems by Robert Frost. I'm excited about it!

I've begun to realize my junior year is slipping between my fingers. Everyone told me this would happen. When this year started I thought that's what I wanted. I wanted this year to fly by. Now I'm not so sure.

Well, I took some NyQuil earlier and it's starting to work.
Solid.

An interesting idea.

One day I was reading and stumbled across this:
Miss McCleethy shakes her head thoughtfully.
"True progress can only happen when there is safety first."
"What if safety...is only an illusion?" I say, thinking aloud.
"What if there is no such thing?"
"Then we fall. Chaos," says Miss McCleethy, annoyed with my questions.
"What if that is only the beginning of something new? What if, once we let go, we are freed?"
"Would you take that chance, Miss Doyle?"
