Spring is...not here

I don't mean to sound so upset but I mean really. All the snow was completely melted and people were walking around with short sleeves and shorts. We're talking like 60 degrees. So what happens? I wake up this morning and it is snowing. Fledging snowing. Jus when you think it is going to be Spring. No No No. No Spring for Rexburg. Surprise.
On Sunday our FHE brothers came over, but they come over every Sunday. And usually we play Settlers of Katan. This Sunday however, we watched Newsies because I needed to. I physically needed to watch Newsies and see Spot Conlon in his twelve year old glory capture my heart all over again. And let me tell you he did. What a champ. And I ate another two pounds of applesauce, and a box of spaghetti noodles (raw of course) and some cereal. Oh and my roomate Shea and her fiance let us have some of their Strawberry shortcake stuff. That was very kind of them.
Once the boys left Nyssa, Sarah and I watched A Princess Bride. That was nice. Then I went to bed and woke up late. BUtttttt not that late, just late for me. I was completely in time for work.

Life is making me Kranky

laskjdfhkjwnr;oaihsfd,ng;kjhasdf. I have no idea what to do with my life. The semester is almost over. I'm in no way even remotely ready for that. Good thing I have amazing friends to keep me sane. Next weekend will be a relief. I'm going on an overnight cross country skiing trip. Hopefully that calms me down a bit. OKay I need to eat something now. Bye

Apples the size of baby heads

It's true. I bought these apples. It takes me like an hour to eat them. And it blows because these pictures really don't really show the magnitude of their size.

PI DAY = 3.14

Opera Scenes went marvelously last night. I was very very pleased! And that never happens to me. I'm never happy with my performance. Given I haven't listened to the recording yet, and that will probably change my mind, but as for now I am happy. Updating this often is proving to be a problem the closer we get to finals. Fair? I think so. But, Opera Scenes will be over after Monday; that will clear up my evenings. . . .and I will be able to watch Lost on Wednesday nights! Watching them on the computer the next day just isnt' the same. I've recieved two missionary letters in the past week. One from my friend Bronson in Washington and one from Mikey's companion Elder Judd in Guatemala. This is the second letter I've gotten from him, and I think Mikey wants us to fall in love. Silly boy. Oh bother. It has been like three weeks since I have done laundry. I need pants. Wow. How odd. I haven't written in over a week, but I can't think of anything to say. Last week Friday we had our Durafle requiem concerts. They were life changing. Truely a blessing to be a part of it. I'll try and get a copy of the recording. Techinically I could buy one for five dollars, but I would much rather just burn somebody elses that spent five dollars. Oui!
Friday night (last Friday night) Rachel, Laurel and I went to the comic frenzy show. It likes our schools improv team. Afterwards the two boys sitting next to Rachel asked her how she liked the show. She responded that she liked it and that was the end of the conversation. Then, they followed us out to the fishbowl, without saying anything. They lurked in silence, like the common creeper does. Then. . one of them jabbed outwards and poked Rachel on the shoulder. First rule of thumb: Never poke a anybody, especually a girl when trying to get their attention. It is rude. Call them by name, or like in this case when one doesn't know the name of the potential poke victim, you say excuse me may I ask you something. Continuing on. He pokes her. She turns. He says uhhh umm ahh uhh do you want to go get ice cream with me and my friend. Rachel, being Rachel, says yes. So we go to Craigo's to get a cookie monster, and the boys end up talking about Star Wars like the whole time. Weird.
I wrote a 20th century composition for my theory class. I named it Fish Crackers. It seemed appropriate at the time. Still does actually. My teacher wasn't particularly impressed by my choice, but really that doesn't matter because they aren't grading on my title.
Bugger, I ran out of quarters just now and I have to finish my laundry. I better figure out a solution for that. Ok I go. Byiee.

Blasted Brahms

Brahms is a bugger. I don't really like his music. Verdi on the other hand is a wonder. I was reading through my old blogs today and it is miracle that you guys still read them, because all I do is complain complain complain. So I officially apologize. I GOT A NEW PHONE! And it works. Jolly good really. And tomorrow I'm getting my car fixed. And....I went to the gym two days in a row. That fetching pwns. I told myself no vending machine food for the rest of the semester, but this morning I was really angry about my car and my phone and my voice (because I can't get it to do Handel runs lately, and that my friends is a concern) so I bought chewy runts. Surprisingly enough they were like a little present for my mouth. Especially the green apple flavor. OH OH. I had my costume fitting for Opera Scenes and my outfit is supremely awful. Crap I'm complaining again. But now I have to say it. Okay, well as I have said earlier I am suppsed to be a peasIant bride; about the age of 15. My teacher gave her specific costume requests to the costume people and to us so that we wouln't walk in there oblivious. My character is supposed to have a cream colored full skirt and a bodice and blah blah and a little danty flower hand dress and ribbons all over. Dumb costume girl handed me a white Renaissance princess dress. Not at all what I need. Then to top it off my head dress is an actual birds nest I think. It is all sticks and leaves and there is just this massive clump of nasty fake flowers same dab in the middle of my forehead. Seriously this thing is ginormous. I look more like a fool dressing like a fool than a bride. Sad. Moving on. Haven't made a decision for this summer still. Still moving on, the weather here is absolutely excellent. Instead of snow, we have had rain, which melts the snow! Mind you there is still some snow, but not like it was. I think that is about it. Except my theory teacher gave me a high five today for finding a most excellently hid countersubject in the Provokiev piece we are analyzing. Two snaps for me. Good night and good luck my fellow Americans.

Froot Loops and Scrabble

Today I ate cereal for dinner and played scrabble for dessert. It was a grand time. This week has been all sorts of jumbled. First off my phone is forever broken. No getting around it. The actual piece of the of the phone where the charger hooks in ripped out of my phone. Broke the circuit completely off. It is silly really how badly I get along without a phone. Makes life difficult. Opera scenes are really coming along. We perform in two weeks. This weekend we have Durafle requiem. Work is also going well. Nothing to report. But, I'm getting my hours and making money. Still, no decision forthe summer. I'm still waiting to hear back on a job. Whether i get it or not will be the decider on where I end up for the five months. There are only five weeks left in school so that means my life is going to get far more less exciting. All work. No play. Too much to do. But that is how it has to be. OH, today in sacrament meeting callings were still being extended, and I got called. Of course I was extremely confused because I had heard nothing of it. So I was supposed to stand up, but I didn't because I thought there was a mistake. Afterward i went up to the second councelor and asked him about it and I guess it was right. It really is my calling (Family history worker) and they just never told me about it. They felt really bad. But hey ho now I have two callings. Cool. Grandma Spencer will be excited I bet. Okay well I'm off. Night.
