Okay, kids.  I have a new blog, although at the moment it is relatively empty.  Check it out at http://perfectbeginning.blogspot.com.  I think it will be a fun adventure.  But I also think that Frosted Flakes should be their own food group.  Abientot!

So most of my friends are at school now. Even the ones who haven't graduated yet. That's kind of weird, I think. It's frustrating too, at least for me. Because in many cases, the contact level goes way down when distance is involved. However, there are a couple of people who I didn't have much contact with over the last few months who I now talk to almost daily. Did that even make sense? My roommate is gone, and I am a nervous wreck. Not really. I caught you a delicious bass.

Seriously, though. When I moved away from my tiny town in the middle of 10th grade, it was a sad deal, but everyone reassured me that we would keep in touch. And we did, for the first month or so. Then new stuff started happening, both there and in Rochester. So I was left out of their loop, and they were left out of mine. (Although I didn't technically even have a real loop until junior year.)

It's not that those friendships weren't true. They were, more than I ever realized. And I have very true friends in Rochester now, too. It's just that distance does things to relationships. But I guess so does maturity. And the internet. And a lot of other factors that I've never really thought about until this very moment. One thing I have noticed is that some friendships don't need constant nurturing. Some friendships can start right where they left off, and no one is the wiser. Those are nice.

My point is, I hope I keep in touch with all of my friends, in all of these different cities and states. But if I don't, at least they'll come find me when I'm rich and famous. ;o)

And PS: There's always a different reunion to look forward to, for the most part. Another reason why I feel no shame in attempting to "convert" my friends.

I think I am only able to write one decent blog entry a month. So here we come, September! I actually don't have anything interesting to say, sorry for fooling you. I do have some wisdom, however. NEVER PUT TINFOIL IN THE MICROWAVE. Well, I guess you can, just be aware that it will catch on fire and make your entire hallway smell like burning. Which I guess also isn't a bad thing, unless you set off the fire alarms and everyone has to go outside even though it was just a little bit of tinfoil and I didn't mean anything by it, I promise!!! I miss my mom.

In other news, my fly was down for about half an hour today and I had NO IDEA! Why does this area of the world think that it is rude to point out things like this? MY FLY WAS DOWN!!! Probably no one would let me know if I had a giant lobster claw protruding from my belly-button, either........

Oops, check that. I took care of it.




PS: If anyone can tell me what movie the subject line is from, I'll give you a dollar.




PPS: I won't really, I was lying.

Right now is one of those extremely frustrating times when so many different things are going on inside of my head that I don't know what to write or where to go or how to think. The girly part of me just wants to go somewhere quiet for a good cry, whereas my mannish side would really like to beat the crap out of something.

I could probably put my finger on a few specific events or thought processes that have culminated into the emotional state of mind that I currently find myself in. However, I don't want to and you can't make me. I think I'll just sit here being helpless and feeling sorry for myself for a little bit longer...

Maybe I'll make someone cry and then beat him or her to a pulp.

Yes, I think so.

So, a quick unamusing update for those who may or may not care. HOW INTERESTING.

I got the part I was called back for in 'The Odyssey'. I think this is the first time I've ever gotten the part that I was called back for; if I've gotten leads in the past, there haven't been callbacks. So that was pretty neat, because I'm only a freshman and this will be a great way to meet BOYS!!! Only half kidding, as only half of you understand partly what I mean.

Maybe more later, or maybe I'll just delete this crap-for-crap post and elaborate on some crazy scheme of mine. "If it hadn't been for those pesky kids..."
