Oscar Night

So me, BR, and CW had an Oscar party last night. I got three bags of candy, and every time there was a discrepancy in who we thought would win, we bet our candy in the middle. It was so much fun! But I thought the ceremony was a little on the down side this year, no? Well, I had some milchig popcorn when I was fleishig, neglected my biology reading ... oh yeah, and you-know-who kept coming down to watch with us, and by the end CW and BR had left and it was just ... Heh, heh, just making sure you all were still reading! Love you all.

And wish me luck on this ___ Erev Shira. Dress rehearsal tonight. (Calvin with his hands clenched and his face tilted all the way back screaming AAARGH!)

Hello, again, my worthy audience!
Please give me a reason to go to school. Any at all. I probably have at least a forth as many credits as the average American student, maybe more. And according to Tess, I'm enrolled for dance school next year.
On a lighter note, I got back from LA a couple of hours ago. I had such a good time. Danced the night away Wednesday, saw the best LA had to offer culturally - The Getty Center - which was worth it just for the beyond amazing view and to finally find out where the black sweatshirt is from, went to Ripley's Believe or Not with the older RM Gettingers - an experience in itself - on Friday, as well as the Walk of Fame and the Kodak Center.
The bride was really pretty, she danced with me twice! I was really honored. I'm pretty bummed out that my shooting skills won't be used in the end, since no one in South Bend has a bloody digital projector.

Oh, and by the way, since you're my sibs, just thought you might want to know that I'm developing a 'relationship' with someone ... oo-oo-ooh!

The Limit

Pounds are coming off as I prepare for the next Family Affair. No dress to speak of yet; supposedly to arrive a mere couple of hours before event. Feeling underappreciated. Want to get out of educational prison. Wish I could do something with my life right here, right now.

It Hasn't Really Sunk In ...

First day back after Levaya. Seniors all depressed. My class had a session with Rabbi where we talked about things that I don't give a hang about, like What if I complete my tachlis? I don't want to die yet! I was falling asleep so I had some caffiene and then was completely desensitized for the rest of the day and was laughing with people, while an undercurrent kept washing over me and I felt a deep sadness even though when I thought about it, I really can't comprehend that she's truly gone. I try to picture the corpse from the hearse yesterday, but it doesn't work. I just can't assimilate the fact.
On the note that I was completely crazy today, I finally found someone I didn't even know I was looking for: someone who is sitting in her seat, practically jumping and giddy with excitement for the next installment of my current story. It just makes me feel so good. I am officially a writer.

It just hurts so much, how good she was to everyone and how hard it will be without her.
