"My Own Worst Enemy" by Lit. 90's. Yes!
Anyway, I forgot to write about the showcase until right now. It turned out pretty good. Our shirts turned out really good too. Mine makes me look really skinny, which is great! It says "Duck Duck Moose" on the back. Anyway, the showcase was spectacular, the kids remembered their lines and such, and all was well.
I hung out with Joseph and Daniel saturday night. Apparently this has become a thing, because I think we've done that for the last three saturday's. I'm quite fine with it, i never get to see my friends enough over summer anyway. But we mostly hung out at Kyrock and bashed people. Fun times yo. We ended up petting a dog, and then we went driving, and this crazy owl tried to attack Daniel's car... It was hilarious.
I went shopping yesterday. Wal-Mart had those Rolling Stone purses for a dollar each. That excited me to no end, of course. I bought the Sean Penn, Bono, and Justin Timberlake ones. Yeah, that's right, Justin Timberlake. I like him. I also bought a little friendhsip bracelt kit to learn how to make bracelets like Lea Anne. I also bought Shaun of the Dead. Yeah! I love that movie! Mom bought League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, which I also love. I also ate my weight in Pizza Hut breadsticks. I was so happy.
I went over to Morgan's last night with Daniel. Jared came over and we watched movies and played games. The Crazies sucks, by the way, and Freddy Vs Jason isn't actually that bad. Daniel had never played Life or Clue, so we had to educate him there, and we also played Boxers or Briefs and Battle fo the Sexes, and they were both a lot of fun. They left probably a little before one in the morning. So, it was a fun night.

I Drove For Miles & Miles & Wound Up At Your Door...
"She Will Be Loved" by Maroon 5. If you don't have that song, get the hell off my blog.
Day 5 of drama camp commensed and we teachers had little to no patience. Over the past five days you could see it waning, but to anyone who hadn't yet noticed, it was extremely obvious today. For one thing, when the kids started arriving, instead of getting onstage and playing improv games with them we sat in the audience and sleepily blinked at the while they played, as unruley camper Dylan likes to say "Duck Duck Moose." He's much old enough to know better, by the way, he's just obnoxious.
We did a run through during the "homeroom" bits. The actualy acting bits went pretty well, but me and Ashton stayed back stage to make the kids be quiet while they weren't on stage. I wanted to kill each and every one of them about a million times. Gavin Dooley kept trying to play with props, and when we'd take them away from him he'd either try to fight them or try to sneak and get them again. Dylan was being his usual annoying self, and all the other kids seemed to be stepping it up a notch too. On a nice note, Ian and Emma, who are twins in kindergarten or so, were wearing thing one and thing two shirts and it was so cute. Then in the older kids class, Jade refused to do certain things Rachel would tell her to do during improv because they were embarrassing. So that was obnoxious.
But, tomorrow is the last day, and there are no classes, just the showcase. I hope it goes well...

A Rush & A Push & The Land Is Ours
The Smiths. Check it.
So, today is day four of camp. I am so tired. Until last night I'd barely gotten any sleep. I have to wake up so early every morning... Plus, I can't really got sleep easily. It's not like when I'm in school. You can't sleep through school if you're the teacher.
On day two we assigned parts. We ended up combining the smallest kids with the biggest kids for the scenes for the showcase Saturday. They all already know their lines and the little kids are going to make the cutest frogs... Joseph ended up bringing me home on Tuesday. I'm giving him gas money next time I see him.
On day three we rehearsed the first half of the scenes, and it went great. Tony showed up at the end, I guess to say hi to people, and he winked at me and squeezed my arm. I ended up getting so mad my entire body was trembling. Me and Ashton ended up in the girl's dressing room with me cursing him into oblivion. I want to hate him so much, but I'm too busy missing him. To make matters worse he added a bunch of pictures to facebook today of him and Tamara. He looks so happy and I don't know why. She's an icy bitch queen. But whatever. He'll find it out eventually.
Today we did the second half of the scene. They didn't know those lines too well. They ended up having them down by the end of the day though. We're having lots of problems getting Joseph and Jade (the two older kids) to project their voices. I managed to get the crazy middle kids to settle down and be quiet today. I taught them a breathing excersize that taught them how to project their voices, and they did it well. they're driving poor Rachel crazy. Kalie, Ashton's little sister, is totally crazy about me. She hangs around me all the time, and she's actually pretty cool. She's a lot like Ashton, just younger. but she's sort of mature, so she's an ok kid.

It's A Long Walk From My House To Three Oh Nine...
"Three Oh Nine" by Hit The Lights.
So, right now it's almost one in the morning and I'm still awake. Normally, this would not be a problem at all. However, I have to get up at five thirty to get to camp.
The first day was today by the way. That rhymed and if I weren't so tired I would change it. It went pretty smoothly I think. We had about 13 kids sign up, but a few more are coming tomorrow...Well, today. The older kids, all two of them, don't really like cooperating. They're at that stage whre they don't want to embarrass themselves on stage. And I was like that once, but they have to get over it.
The authority thing wasn't a problem. Rachel doesn't completely know what she's doing, so it pretty much evens out to me, her, and Brody just sharing command. Brody could be so cute if he were older.
The school totally fucked us over. We had it scheduled for us to use the auditorium and freshman hall for the week. They decided they need to wax all the floors. Therefore, we had no access to freshman hall, and the only access we had to the auditorium was through the library.
I only got two and a half hours sleep Monday morning. I went to bed at three, adn got up at five thirty. After camp, I hung out with Morgan. We went to Bowling Green, where I bought the first volume of Scott Pilgrim (which is amazing!) and a cute vest type thing form JC Penny's. I might wear it tomorrow, I'm not sure yet.
I am so freaking tired, but I know if I tried to go to sleep it wouldn't work. Tomorrow I have to get a ride home from camp with Joseph. yup, I'm making him come get me. And he agreed with very little fight. All there was to it was me agreeing to give him gas money. Mom can't pick me up because it's Tuesday. I hate that I can't go with them, but oh well, I'd rather do camp.
I'm sorry this post is so scattered around like this, but I'm sleep deprived. Two and a half hours out of thirty seven. It's ridiculous.

Drama Camp Complaints.
By the way, this is my 100th post. Yay me.
Anyway, I'm really really angry right now.
So, when Morgan started planning this drama camp thing, Douglas was teaching acting, Tiffany was teaching costumes, and Caitlyn was teaching set design. Which was fine with me, because Douglas just graduated, and Caitlyn and Tiffany are in my grade. So there wasn't really a problem with that. It was all lined up where Douglas was in charge, with me, Ashton, and Ben helping him out. Obviously, Ben is a no go. But then it was going to be Douglas, Ashton, and me. We weren't going to replace Ben.
During all this I warned Morgan that Tiffany would probably back out on her. She didn't listen to me, and low and behold, Tiffany backed out. That's not that big a deal, I just wished she would have listened to me. Now Erica Ashley is teaching costumes. Which is a bad idea if you ask me, because the second she doesn't agree with whatever Morgan's doing, she'll either bitch until Morgan regrets letting her do it, or just do whatever she wants anyway. I'm betting on the latter.
But, again, this is not the issue.
The issue that is, due to his work schedule, Douglas will not be able to teach the acting class.
Now, seeing as his original assistants were going to be me and Ashton, the logical choice to teach would be me, right?
Since I was already scheduled to work the acting class, and since I am about to be a senior, while Ashton is about to be a freshman.
But no.
No worries, Ashton isn't teaching it either. Rachel Grey is. Rachel Grey, who, for the longest time, didn't even know if she would be able to help with camp at all. Rachel Grey who is a year younger than me, and therefore, has one less year of experience. She's going to teach it.
I'll give you this, Rachel Grey did have a lead in the last play, but still. Teaching an acting class, is pretty much the same thing as directing in my book, and who has very recently directed a play? Why yes, that would be me. Plus, I stage managed The Least Offensive Play, and seeing as they only ever listened to me, I may as well have been the director.
But all this apparently doesn't matter. I don't know if it was Morgan or Dooley that decided to put Rachel in charge, and don't get me wrong, I don't think she'll be a bad teacher, it's just I think it's wrong that they passed me up like that. I don't like this, and it pisses me off so friggin much. But whatever, I'm still going to help. Whatever she wants done, I'll do. And I won't say a word about being angry about this. I can't change anything anyway.

I feel better. Last night I think I was in the middle of a bad cycle, if you understand what I'm saying. Anyway, I found http://www.lamebook.com/ and I laughed at it for a few hours last night, so all is well, mostly. I still miss Tony, but it's manageable.

Go Ahead & Burn It Down, I'm Drunk & So's Everyone Else...
"Still Around" by 3Oh!3. It sounds like Mayday Parade, and it's really good.
I wish I was drunk right now. Or Stoned. Preferably stoned. I wish ibuprofen gets people high, because I took ten and would therefore be blitzed. It's only 2000 mg though. So two grams of ibuprofen. Big whoop. I had a bad headache, and for some reason decided to take ten. I'm retarded, I know.
But, for the past two nights, I've been missing Tony so goddamn much.
It was thundering and raining last night, It made me think about right before and right after spring break, when I would be liying awak in the middle of the night, and he would be too. And I would text him. That's when it started. When we started talking more. He knows more about me than Aaron ever did. He helped me in ways Aaron never could. For one thing, he helped me get over Aaron. If it weren't for Tony, I might still be in love with Aaron.
But I remember on one the nights I couldn't sleep (which was pretty much all of them) it was thundering and raining. And I told him how much I loved that sound. How it could sometimes sing me to sleep when nothing else could. He told me he loved it too. I wished he was there with me that night, listening to the rain and thunder with me. I wished he was there with me in an innocent way, and that's when I realized how much I cared about him. Because before then, he'd been a PIF, and nothing more. But when I realized I just wanted to lay beside him and listen to it rain and thunder, that's when I knew I was a goner.
I think maybe I loved him. Loved? Love? I don't know. I know I loved him as a friend. That's a no brainer. But I think I was in love with him. Maybe I still am. I don't know. I just miss him so much. I want him to know I'll always be there for him, but I don't know how to tell him.
I just miss him so much. I'm almost crying as I write this. And we all know, I don't cry. I just want to be able to talk to him again. He made me feel better when I was all fucked up. Which is not an easy thing to do. And now I'm cycling again, and he's not here, no one's here, and I just want to be able to talk to someone. I mean, I know I have friends that I can talk to, that will listen to me about this, but noe one understood me like he did. I thought I knew what it meant to be understood with Aaron, but I didn't have a clue until Tony. I didn't have the slightest fucking clue, and now it's gone.
Because I'm a stupid bitch that couldn't keep her mouth closed. I mean, I know it's not directly my fault that Tamara found out about everything, but I shouldn't have told anyone. I know I didn't really tell Mikela, that she found out, but someone else may have eventually said something. So I never should've opened my goddamn mouth. I just miss him so fucking much.
And now I really am crying. I'm signing off now, so I can try and have a good cry over this, although my body will probably come to it's senses after a few tears and stop.

Best I Ever Had (Grey Sky Morning)
Vertical Horizon. Or, if you like country music, Gary Allan. But it's Vertical Horizon's song.
So, I haven't really done much since I last posted. Jared and I ended up not going to see Dead Serious About Life, which is fine I guess. Morgan thinks I should keep trying there, but I don't think he likes me, so I don't really see the point of it. I'm just going to get my hopes up once again, and be let down...Once again. It's not like I'm being all "Woe is me, I can't find a boyfriend for the heartbreak" (although, in my defense, it is kind of true) I'm just tired of going after guys that really don't like me.
There's a guy. I'm not going to put his name, because I'm not 100% sure that no one from my school reads this. I know I'm really open with everything about me, but that's my choice, and they're my secrets. I don't even know if he cared if everyone knew, but I'm not going to just assume that. Anyway, this guy, will just pretend his name actually is Guy. Guy told me Friday night that he loves me. That he's had a thing for me for a long time, for about as long as I had a thing for Aaron, plus the month or so that I've been over him. He was being insanely sweet about everything. He even called me beautiful. He wants me to give him a chance, and I want to give him one, it's just that I don't have a thing for him. I did for about a week's time my sophomore year, but I got over that. The thing is, I don't want to break his heart more than anyone's ever wanted to not break someone's heart. I know what it's like to be him. I mean, I loved Aaron for two and a half years and he never wanted me. I would've killed for a chance to be with him, and that's exactly what Guy told me. Morgan doesn't think I should give him a chance, because he's one of those guys that just uses girls to get laid. But he told me he's only been doing that because he's only ever really cared about me. I can't see any kind of future with him (and I'm not talking marriage or kids or anything, I'm talking in the next year). I just DO NOT want to hurt him. I want to be able to give him a chance...
On a lighter note, I hung out with Danny and Joseph Saturday night. We tried to go play at kyrock, but then we started talking about scary movies, and ran away. Then we somehow ended up driving on a back road in Brownsville, eating ice cream at Dairy Queen, and then back at Kyrock, where we kind of played while watching each other's backs. It was hilarious. Joseph and Nikki are friends again. I just can't wait until those too idiots finally realize they are meant to be. Like, I know people say that about people all the time, but these two really are. They totally love each other and are too stupid to admit it.
Oh, Aaron and Ashton broke up. He's pretty broken hearted. I hope they get back together soon.

You Be The Anchor That Holds Keeps My Feet On The Ground, I'll Be The Wings That Keep Your Heart In The Clouds
Mayday Parade.
So, once again, I have to play catch up, because I have been lax in my blogging. You would think that with all this free time I'd do it more, but that seems to have made me even lazier when it comes to updating.
Anyway, we finally rented The Collector this weekend, and it was just as good as I remembered it. I just love the mind games, and the fact that Arkin, the main character, actually had a brain for someone in a scary movie. So did the lesbian chick in High Tension, but I'll get to that in a minute. We also rented The Ugly Truth and Daybreakers. The Ugly Truth was hilarious, and I loved it, but it was filthy. Which was fine with me, but I was watching it with my mother, so I had to pretend to A.) not get half the jokes, and B.) pretend that I thought it was a disgusting movie, But I liked it, and I liked Daybreakers too. For one thing, it's the first time Ethan Hawke's been that attractive since the 90's. He was gorgeous! And he had that whole reluctant vampire thing going on, but it wasn't all woe-is-me-I'm-a-vampire. Well, actually, it was, but it was ok, since the whole world was full of vampires and he really didn't have much choice in it. But the movie had a well thought out plot and I liked it.
We went shopping on Tuesday, shock shock. As always, G-ma JoAnn was being difficult. For one thing, every time I tried to say anything she had to talk over me, and that just pisses me off. And then I jokingly told her to shut up, and she spazzed, threatening to hit me. Mom was just like, "this is ridiculous." Mom keeps saying that she's not coming with us this Tuesday, but I don't believe it for a second. She's said that before, and she always ends up going with us. We went to the Dollar Tree while we were in Leitchfield, to get some Rip Its because my father likes them now. They had Barenaked Ladies, Less Than Jake, Panic At The Disco, and James Blunt CDs there. I got the Barenaked Ladies and Less Than Jake ones, since I don't like James Blunt and I already had the Panic At The Disco one. Thought that was pretty cool. I got the new Glee CD at Wal-Mart, along with a Hard Candy makeup bag that I've been needing pretty badly.
I went over to Morgan's yesterday afternoon. We hung around watching TV and talking for a bit, and then Jared texted me. When he found out I was at morgan's, he informed me that I was only like, five minutes from him. So we ended up going over there at like, 9:20. We got lost on the way there too, because we turned right at a church we should've turned left at. We eventually got there though, and watch High Tension and Dead Silence. High Tension was this french movie that had been partially dubbed over. It was pretty good. It was about this lesbian chick that was staying with her friend and her friend's family in the french countryside. This guy breaks into their house and starts killing them all, except the lesbian because he doesn't know she's there, and the lesbian's friend that she's in love with. He takes her collector style, and madness ensues. It's a pretty awesome movie, so definitely find it and watch it. Jared found out that I was scared of puppets and dolls and such and made me watch Dead Silence. At key moments, he would grab my arm or something and scare the piss out of me. He succeeded. well, not literally, thank goodness. Morgan thinks that he was flirting with me. She also thinks that we watched Dead Silence on his laptop instead of the big screen so he could sit by me. But I think it was because he was too lazy to hook it up , like he said. but who knows?

So, once again, I have to play catch up, because I have been lax in my blogging. You would think that with all this free time I'd do it more, but that seems to have made me even lazier when it comes to updating.
Anyway, we finally rented The Collector this weekend, and it was just as good as I remembered it.

Is It Getting Better, Or Do You Feel The Same?
"One" by U2. Not Glee. I love Glee, but they did a shitty job of that song.
So, I know I kind of left you high and dry, but until today, blogging felt like a big waste of time. But I feel better now. Anyway, so Tuesday, May 25th, was visitation. I finally cried. Cody Garmon hugged me and said he wasn't ready for this and I just started crying and saying that I wasn't either. But, when Lloyd came around, my tears dried up for him. I had to be strong for Lloyd. I didn't go look at him. I couldn't do that. For one thing, I have a photographic memory, and I never would've gotten that out of my head, and for another thing, everyone said it didn't look like him anyway.
Wednesday, May 26th, was the funeral. I ended up not going to the graveside service, but I went to the part at the funeral home. There were a lot of people there. When Erin got there I took her under my wing and made sure she was ok. I didn't cry until the very end, when they started playing "Don't Stop Believing." He loved that freaking song. I felt like I couldn't stop crying too, but I managed to get myself under control in Morgan's car.
The Dooley's were Monday, May 24th. I didn't win anything, but Ben did. He won sophomore thespian. We voted on that the Wednesday before too.
Now, in news that isn't so depressing.
I ended up at Glee Night at MattLong's house the night of Ben's visitation. It was pretty fun, and it took my mind off things. It was the Lady Gaga/Kiss episode. I got a futon two weeks ago. It's black and it's all nice and cushy. My only problem with it is that I don't sleep to well on it. But, then again, I don't sleep to well in general. Morgan began a secret "love affair" with John Kinsey on Monday, and he broke up with her last night. Not really a big thing, but kind of funny. Nikki and Andy broke up, and now Joseph and Nikki are talking again. I went to graduation with him. It was a depressing affair.
Also, I do not plan on doing the whole summer blog thing this year. It was kind of dumb, and I wish I knew how to merge blogs, and just get rid of the summer one.
