Thinking Positive!

Hey so from now on, screw the bad stuff, Immana talk about positive things! Yay! I just think I've been to emo lately with my postings... :/ Sorry, whoever cares.
So we got yearbooks today... Boitz let us out early to go get them before school was even out, but they wouldn't let us in cause they weren't set up and Seniors were supposed to go first. Bummer, but then after about 20 minutes of waiting they let people of any grade that were waiting around come in and get their yearbook, so I got mine before a lot of people. It's really cool and really big, even though that makes it kinda hard to carry cause of the weight of all the pages... But it's really well done! It's funy cause you can tell all the people in Marching Band because we had to take our pictures during an hour or so break at band camp so we were all sweaty and red. My tank top tan's EXTREMELY obvious lol. But hey I'm used to laughing at horrible pictures of me so whateverrr. :D
And in orch we got the results of the silly awards we voted on. I didn't win anything (the prize was just a cookie anyways), but somehow I got nominated for America's Next Top Model. wtfff if anybody knows who nominated me for that pray do tell. I need to figure out what's wrong with them. ><>
And that's pretty much it. I should be studying for math but I'd rather blog and yeah. Whatever. Yearbook > math.

Another not so great day... But tomorrow can always be better!

So today in English we had to present these tableaux thingies. :/ 

Everything was okay until I stood up and accidently bumped my desk, which had my precious camera on it. It fell on the floor and for a minute I thoguht everything was okay... but then I discovered what i thought was the lens had shattered. I told the teacher about it and after inspecting it he deduced that it was actually only the piece of glass covering the lens, not the lens itself, that had broken, and so therefore was most likely fixable. 

So hopefully that gets worked out.

I was playing Wii Fit yesterday and I discovered I'd lost almost a whole BMI point. I used to be at about a tenth of a point underweight and now I'm almost a  full point under... Yay? Wii Fit still thinks I'm normal though! But my Mii looks freaking anorexic ;-; Oh well. This random loss of appetite is weird... my dad forced me to bring a Boost shake (what i'd always have for lunch before this non-hunger thing) to school so I ended up drinking it and my hunger came back a tiny bit... I'd rather it not, I kind of like this not having the urge to devour every piece of random crap in sight. Cause I wasn't eating terribly healthily. Is that even a word? Healthily? 

Whatever

:/

For the first time in freaking forever, I think I'm kinda depressed.

Well, first of all, I got to school this morning and everything was fine until about an hour into World Geo. I got called into the office to see the guidance counselor. On the way there, I was pondering why... And immediately thought of the worst that could happen - A conflict between orchestra and Japanese, both onesie classes. When I got there and was ushered into the counselor's room after about a minute of waiting in one of those chairs around this random table in the guidance office with a bunch of other students doing homework, reading, and, in the case of the guy next to me, playing guitar. o-o

I sat down in the counselor's office, and, after reviewing what I assumed was my tentative next-year's schedule in a packet of papers on her desk, she dropped the news on me. "It looks like you have a conflict between Advanced Jazz Ensemble and... Japanese 2." she stated simply, looking up at me as if expecting an immediate answer. My jaw dropped. It wasn't an orchestra conflict, but it was about as bad. I had auditioned for Jazz 2, thinking it would be untouchable by schedule conflicts because of its spot during 7th period. But apparently some classes had been moved around, and so now 7th period Jazz 2 was 6th period instead, the same time as Japanese. 

I really want to take Jazz 2 because even though it came as a complete surprise when I found out I had gotten in to the group (which I hadn't planned on auditioning for until my friend insisted I try about a week before auditions), even though I had gone in to the audition thinking of it just like another chance to prepare for my infinitely more important Advanced Orchestra rehearsal. So when I was called into one of the band director's offices during Orchestra one day and he told me the news, I just about peed my pants. In a good way. So even though I had been planning on going into Symphonic Band so as to keep up with Baritone, I agreed to make the switch. Thing is, I'm a bass, so there's only one in the section, and if I don't take the spot now, I may not have another chance in my High School careeer. That and I have no idea who would replace me, as one bass is doing SWE and can't fit it in his schedule and the other doesn't want to. :/ But the second time i talked to the band director, after talking to my Japanese teacher, he said that another conflict had arisen, and if there was one more, that they would have to move Jazz 2 back to 7th period. Somehow, they ended up with four onesie classes 6th period next year, which is bound to cause schedule conflicts: Japanese 2, Jazz 2, Chinese 5, and Chinese 6. So hopefully somebody else has a problem, otherwise I hafta make a really hard decision...

A decision I don't want to make, because I can't really drop Japanese. We're the last class of the language - there's no Japanese 1 next year. If anybody falls behind, the teacher doesn't know what she's going to do. But that also means I couldn't stay back and go to 2 my junior year (Which I wouldn't really want to do anyways), and I mean I'm pretty good at Japanese, but there's no way in heck I could learn enough over the summer to get into 3 next year... :/ And I really like the language, so I'd rather not pick another one and have to start all over from scratch, rather than building on what I already know. 

But let's be positive! Somebody else is GOING to have a conflict, so they'll HAVE to change it! Yeah! Positive! Now I forget the other thing I was sad about! 

Oh wait I remember.

So on top of that stress-ness, Finals are next week. And this past Friday was, as I've said the last orch concert. So these are like hte last couple days I'll see a lot of these people, especially the seniors, which makes me sad. And I haven't been eating much. :/ Idk if it's from stress or something, but I just haven't been hungry. And when I do feel hungry, it's not like a normal kind of hungry, but more like this weird stomach feeling (I know I'm so specific) but if I don't eat it just goes away and I'm not hungry anymore so I kinda haven't been eating cause I hate forcing myself to when I don't feel hungry... Which I guess is good cause it might help the other reason I kinda feel like crap, which is kind of my main second emo-face complaint thing. 

So this guy I've liked for a long time... CS. (Certan Someone, get it? ;o I'm too pro at abbreviations) He's really cool, I like him a lot. But he's always around girls, who are pretty much just his friends. But there's this one girl that hangs around him in orch (the only time I really see him) that... I dunno. It's weird. I'll look across the room at him and he'll be doing whatever and it's fine and then that girl walks over and I feel inferior. And I'm nothing more than friends with this guy, but I always feel like I'm less than these girls who hang around him, and it's all because they're these petite, cute little skinny Asian girls and welll.... I'm not. :/ BMI-wise, I'm a little under-weight, actually, but compared to these other girls I feel like a big fatty. And I hate it. Even when I'm having a good day, I take one glance at them when they're near CS and suddenly my day's a shitty one. 

Sigh.... Think positive?

It's All Over...

Soo I couldn't really write yesterday, cause by the time i got home, it was today. o-o

Yeah last night was the Orchestra end-of-year concert. It was AMAZING. I just can't believe another year of orch's pretty much over... The Seniors have been so unbelievably awesome I just can't put it into words... I'll miss them sososo incredibly much, along with one of our amazing band directors who's leaving us to get his PhD or something in Music Education. Some people put together a going-away video for him, and they showed part of it at last night's concert - I was seriously almost in tears. 

But then the whole mood was reversed and we were cracking up during the last piece because of the choreography the Seniors had put together for this John Williams medley we played. And after all that, we stuffed the basses back on the rack, kicked our music underneath, and ran off to Jake's for an after-party with the whole orchestra. 

We were some of the first people to get there, meaning we got the first pizza and everybody else was staring at us hungrily. x] Anyhoo so we got our pizza and ate it and after that I reeeeally wanted some spicy curly fries so I got some of those and when we finished, Jimmy and Eric were sprinkling salt and pepper from the shakers on the table randomly into the little paper thing the fries had come in. And then, shakers in hand, the two of them discovered the last piece of pizza, waiting to be destroyed. 'Hey, you wanna make the most disgusting piece of pizza ever?' Eric challenged, and I jumped in with the boys as they smeared the poor pizza with barbeque sauce, salt, pepper, bits of leftover fry, and a chicken strip, just for good measure.

And then of course they had to eat it. Eric took a bite, then choked on the sheer amount of pepper and chucked it across the table, where it lay for about two minutes before they decided to make it grosser. Eric and Jimmy unscrewed the lids of the salt and pepper shakers and dumped half a container of each on the poor pizza, which I then mized around with my straw. After that, it was a contest. Eric took a bite or two more and then died, and then Jimmy started eating some so then Eric had to eat more. Final score? 4-3 Eric won. 

But they were both on the verge of barfing so nobody really won in that aspect. :P A fun night in general the pics are hilarious, but I look like a retard in almost all of them. D:<

Oh well! :] Most amazing night since Championship Weekend of MB fer sure.

And next year, orchestra will be ten million times more amazing for various reasons including MB will start again so I get to experience another time the thing I've missed so much since its cessation in November. :]]]]

This one time, at Orch...

The other day in orchestra...

CS (certain someone ;o) sort of was staring at me... Strangely. I turned to him, heart pounding, and met his gaze. I started to smile a little, epic music playing through my head (or it may have been Boitz working with the violins) and then suddenly he opened his mouth to speak. I held my breath, bit my tongue, my pulse racing as I wondered what it was he was going to say. His lips started to form the fateful words, and then they fell from his mouth.

"I'm hungry."

So Sue's trying to get me back into this...

Hello people who read this! -coughSUEcough-

So yes.

My bestestestest buddy Sue who freakin owes me her life for me giving her the answers to the English homework has been blogging lately so I figured I'd get into it again. Not that anybody cares about my life anyways. Whatever. Hmm but I dunno what to really write...

Ooh!

Whoah the lines are really far apart when I type..

ANYHOO

uh

yeah

Today's Wednesday. Yee i know my days of the week, that's right. Tomorrow I've got a Jazz Band concert during which me and a certain somebody (<3)>

Cause there are four bassists in Jazz Band and well only one can play at a time soo yeah. 

One possible epic dance song is really beautiful and slow and heyy who know's what might happen lol. I was gonna attempy something at Jazz Cab with certain someone, but he had to play the piece after the slow song, so I didn't. :<

And even more exciting than that Friday's the end of the year Orch concert! It's so sad, cause I'll miss hte seniors sosososososso much... But it's been an UHmazing year. :] 

And now my butt's falling asleep -adjusts-

Anyhoo so after the concert we're all goin to BJ's, of course, and we're gonna get a table just for the basses and it will be EPIC and we'll have so much fun but Tina might not sit with us cause she 'doesn't wanna segregate' which is understandable because it's her last post-concert BJ's party ever... :<

On a random note, yesterday during PE, these two Pigeons flew into the weight room during PE and were sitting on a light over where Kayla and I were working out and I was so scared it was gonna crap on my head D: but it didn't.

and today two little birdies flew into the music building during 5th period and WOULDN'T LEAVE stupid things. They were just flying allll around. Good thing practice was in hte McAfee, otherwise the birdies would've been scared shitless. and considering they would've been flying over the people... yeahhhh.... Ooh and in Japanese Kayla and I got paired for our Dream House project. Our house is a freaking elephant. with a unicorn horn. That's actually a lazerbeam. And there's a unicorn ranch in its ear and a bathroom in its butt and a giant ddr in the living room :DDDD

Anyhoozle, I think that's about it... I gotta go practice bass / get ready for bed cause I got up super early to cram for my World Map test today (which I didn't fail yay!)

Toodles,

Izzy

Souper Bowl / I'm not random, I swear....

Ahh, Super Bowl Sunday...

The one day of the year when I get to be a bad American.

Cause instead of watching the game, I watch the commercials. 

Seriously.

Football hold no interest for me, unless there's a Marching Band at halftime. Which there never is cause apparently the Sooper Bowl is too important for a marching band. They have like the Jonas Brothers or something instead. Yeah I don't really get football. My Grandma tried to explain it to me once...

AND NOW A WORD FROM LIZZIE:

I second that notation, Izzy. D:

The commercials are lyk, the only reason I ever watch the souper bowl. Yes, souper.

*thinks*

Cause Soup goes in bowl so therfore it's a souper bowl 8D

(versus cereal bowl) 

(and versus oatmeal bowl)

(or rice bowl)

(or noodle bowl)

(or bowl bowl)

(you eat bowls in a bowl?)

(no but you gotta put bowls in something)

(true.. but then you must wash two bowls!)

(you have a valid point.... but the only bowls you put in the bowl bowl are clean bowls so the bowl bowl never gets dirty)

(indeed.. but.. if someeone is a messy eater than having a bowl bowl will get the bowlsbowl dirty and then you must wash the bowl bowl and therefore you waste water)

(but you wash the bowls before they go into the bowl bowl so even if you're a messy eater once you wach the bowls you would put them in the bowl bowl so the bowl bowl would be clean)

(how did we get from football to a bowl bowl?)

(souper bowl. nuff said. it turns people craaazy. and drunk. but only if there's beer involved. which there usually is. =])

(you forgot highness. i fly like paper, get high like planes~! PAPER PLANES FTW LOLOLOLOL I heard that song in Dogslum Noillim)

(o-o riiiight.)

(yeah, i has some issues 8D)

(otay.)

Special thanks to the wonders of TeamViewer for causing this randomness to happen by allowing Lizzums to control my computer. :D
