Don't do drugs. Wait til you're a rockstar... then they give 'em to you for free!
Yeah, so there's ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY SEVEN DAYS UNTIL HARRY POTTER & THE PRISONER OF AZKABAN IS RELEASED IN THEATRES! YAY!!! Emma Thompson! Alan Rickman! David Radcliffe and Rupert Grint and Tom Felton and Emma Watson! Julie Christie! John Cleese! Robbie Coltrane! Dawn French! The Phelps twins! Maggie Smith! Sean Biggerstaff! Jason Issacs! Mmmm so many wonderful people! I LOVE HARRY POTTER!
In other news, I want to go see Love Actually and Timeline again. Very good movies.
Last night, we went to Perkins (as you could tell by the Perkins Time! song I posted last night) and then I got home and jumped into mom's car and we went to Barnes & Noble, Media Play & Walmart. MOMMY GOT ME THE LOTR3 SOUNDTRACK!! Yay for Billy Boyd singing prettily! Cutest little hobbitses in the world: Merry & Pippen!
Anyways, I am going to go clean and such because I'm a good daughter with a wonderful Mommy who is going to LOVE her Christmas present (provided it gets here by X-mas - eek!)!!!!

Dead Fish In The Middle Of The Road...
So, here's Laura's really bad joke...
A man came to a farmer and asked if he had any spare jobs he could do, for he had no money. the farmer gave him a tin of paint and sent him to paint the porch.
The guy returned to the farmer soon after who was surprised at his quick work.
The guy replied, "Oh, it was easy. and by the way, it wasn't a porsche, it was a BMW."
Yeah, it kinda made me groan but it made me smile and giggle a bit.
That's all for today...
Well, except, Wonderful Life opened and didn't suck Balzac and then there was Perkins Time! Perkins Time!
Perkins time, Perkins time
Come on, mateys, Perkins time
Perkins time
Perkins time, Perkins time
Perkins time, Perkins time
Never need a reason,
Never need a rhyme
Perkins time, it's Perkins time!
Kick your knees up!
Kick your knees up, Perkins time
Kick your knees up, Perkins time
Never need a reason,
Never need a rhyme
Kick your knees up, Perkins time
Perkins time, Perkins time
Perkins time, Perkins time
Never need a reason,
Never need a rhyme
Perkins time, it's Perkins time!
Ah! They're at it again!
Ah! They're at it again, Perkins time
Ah! They're at it again, Perkins time
Ah! They're at it again, Perkins time
It's the master!
It's the master, Perkins time
It's the master, Perkins time
What's all this?
What's all this?
What's all this?
ANYWAYS, now that I have completely exploited Richard M. & Robert B. Sherman's lovely lyrics in Mary Poppins, I shall mosey on over to make myself some fried rice and then go to bed. Gnyte all!

Today is Tuesday. Yesterday was Monday. Nothing exciting happened. I went to school, took my Aural Skills final, didn't flunk it too badly, hung out in the ER with Laura and Nichole (and Matt for a couple minutes) and we played Rummy until Mommy came to take me away to go shopping and get lunch, afterwards I came back to school and went to an entirely pointless Theory class before going home. At home, I did... nothing. Well, I played Sims. But that qualifies as 'nothing.' Then I went to Wonderful Life rehearsal which was... interesting due to the lack of set pieces, lights, etc. After rehearsal, I came home and watched some TV before going to bed. So far today, I have done nothing. Literally. I slept til 11 and then went up and took a shower and now I'm journalling. Later I will probably be going shopping with Cameron and then going to rehearsal, after which I was supposed to go see Lord of the Rings: Return of the King, but I think I'm going to come home and sleep instead, unless I go to Dollar Tuesday. But yeah, so that's been the exciting past 2 days. Rah!

So then I updated something OTHER than quizzes and "I'll update soon."
This weekend, thus far, has been good. Friday I got up early and took my car in, came back home and cleaned for awhile, went to class, went with Dad to pick up my car (and got a full tank of gas in the process) and then came home. Cameron came over and we, well, did a lot of nothing... played cards, went to dinner with Larissa, taught her Shapoo, nothing too exciting. Saturday, I slept in, spent the day at home (playing Sims mostly). In the evening, Cameron came over and we played Rummy with Lara (I kicked their asses!), and then we went to see Timeline. Pretty good movie, I thought. I have to admit, though, that I would rather have spent the $6 on Once Upon A Time In Mexico (which I saw Tuesday) and the $1 on Timeline. Oh well. It all balances out in the end. Anywho, it's way past my bedtime and I imagine I will be up late-ish playing D&D tomorrow so I am going to head to bed.
Gnyte!

1. Do you enjoy the cold weather and snow for the holidays? Hmm... well, I enjoy how they look... from inside my warm house. But I don't really enjoy going outside into the cold... when the car takes 20 minutes to warm up and it only takes 10 minutes to get where I'm going.
2. What is your ideal holiday celebration? How, where, with whom would you celebrate to make things perfect? I really just enjoy the whole family get-together, big dinner, share presents dealie...
3. Do you do have any holiday traditions? Well, I'm Polish so we have a big Polish dinner with herring and beet soup and other traditional Polish food.
4. Do you do anything to help the needy? Not really... I probably should, and I'm sure I will, once I can afford to put gas into my car and such.
5. What one gift would you like for yourself? If I could have whatever I wanted for Christmas, I kinda need a new computer and a slightly-less-ghetto car, but realistically... I will be happy just being around my friends and family over Christmas break.

So, I have absolutely nothing of interest to write. This week was dull, barring Monday.
Tuesday was a typical school day - got up, went to class, slept thru watching the 1968 version of Midsummer Night's Dream in GBGM, tried not to sleep thru Jazz History, sang in choir and went home. Cameron came over shortly thereafter and we hung out until he had to go to his lesson. So he dropped me off at the mall and went. We had dinner at the mall afterwards, wandered thru some stores, went home where we got dragged across the street to Jim's for 30 minutes for 'rehearsal.' Spent the rest of the evening together and then he went home.
Wednesday was, again, uneventful. I don't even remember what happened on Wednesday, probably nothing interesting.
Thursday, I went to school, went home, went over to Cameron's for awhile, went home. Slept.
Friday was boring - slept til 11, went to class, came home, went to work for about 5 minutes, went to the Fails', watched the boys play Gladius on PS2, kidnapped Cameron, hung out at my house, took Cameron home, watched Law & Order with Mom, went to sleep. On the upside, when I went into work, I thought I was going to have to sing again, but I ran into Jim Calhoun (who turned out to be the "I'm cute in that "I play football" kinda way" guy) and he was like, "I'm so sorry! I was supposed to tell you that you don't have to be here the whole time today cuz we already know how incredible your voice is!" So all I had to do was try on a shirt and fill out my avail. for the first two weeks and then leave.
Saturday was boring - woke up at 9, left for Chicago with the fam by 10ish, visited Grandma and Uncle Bud, went out to dinner, came home, Cameron came over, we played Rummy and I kicked his ass, Cameron went home, I went to sleep.
Today will probably be boring as well - woke up at 10, watched Jimmy Neutron with Lara because there was nothing else on, took a shower, got dressed, made a journal entry. Later, I will be leaving to go play D&D which I will run away from for an hour so I can perform at my concert and then I will probably play D&D for the rest of the night.
Anyways, I will go continue my un-exciting existance.
If you are as bored as I am, come to the UW-FV concert at 3 p.m. today.

There's no Friday Five for this week because Heather has a life, so I went back to some of the old ones and decided to use one...
1. If you were to go to a movie this weekend, which one would you pick? Probably either Love Actually (again!), Honey or Gothika. But honestly, I cannot WAIT until Peter Pan comes out! I'm so excited to see Jason Issacs as Hook!
2. What movie would you like to rent this weekend? I'm not sure, I never know what movies are out for rent. I've been kinda wanting to see the second Tomb Raider and I'm sure I could find something to rent... maybe something older with Audrey Hepburn or something.
3. What one TV show do you always try to watch? Law & Order: SVU... hands down, favorite show lately
4. If you (and your S.O.) were cool with it, what five celebrities (at the most) would it be 'ok' for you to have a fling with? I don't think I can think of a celeb that I'd actually want to sleep with... some of them are pretty attractive and I certainly wouldn't mind meeting and talking with a lot of them, but I don't think I'd actually like to have a fling with anyone because it would be just that: a fling.
5. How do you plan to spend your weekend? Well, aside from the concert on Sunday at 3 pm (which those of you who aren't in had best come to see!), I don't have anything planned. I have to go into work tonight from 4-6 also and probably cart my sister around afterwards but other than that, tonight and tomorrow night are wide open. I imagine I will spend some time with Cameron (yay!) but who knows what else I'll end up doing?
---
Mk, I know I haven't blogged since Monday... but I will later, maybe during Theory. We'll see.
