performance filled life

Last Wednesday was my final production for drama.
Yesterday was KW Glee <3
This Wednesday is the grade 12 final production.
Friday is Sweeny Tod.
Next Thursday is Coffee House. Which I'm SO excited for :D :D :D

Yay life :)

ALSO, this weekend will be sooo epic.
Thursday night = Alex's bday party
Friday = possibly beach, Savannah+Rachel, Sweeny Tod and SLEEPOVER :D
Saturday = Rachel and Monika <3<3<3
Sunday = recovery and hmwk :(
But yeah... I'm a little excited.

Also, I'm still thinking about how awesome Glee was. Elliot.... Is the cutest thing I've EVER seen, and Let It Be gave me chills <3
The Paramore song was cool, because I hate Paramore but they made it sound awesome:)
Rolling in the Deep was SO SO SO good.
Hallelujah made my heart melt and I'm a TOTAL sucker for singing boys.
Forget You was cute because she seemed so REAL. Not all dolled up like everyone else, just herself. And I really liked that.

I wish I could sing...

sleepovers, headaches, pies, blogging, pictures, chipmunks and waffles

This has been a good weekend, and hopefully will continue to be so :)

I had a sleepover wit Jessie from on Friday, in the morning we ate waffles that I made with my new waffle maker, and then we went and sold pies at a Mennonite thing :)
I was FINALLY able to get some pictures up on my other blogs because we got a new desktop, and I got my laptop back.
Yesterday the kids were able to get a chipmunk that lives in our backyard to actually eat RIGHT OUT OF THEIR HANDS!

Today we went to a birthday party for one of my three-year-old friends. He slept through most of it... but we were at the beach so we had fun regardless :)

Tonight I'm going to see Glee with Katlin. I'm kind of excited to actually get to see it this year. I have a feeling like I'll be sucked back in after tonight.
I haven't missed being a part of the rehearsals, but I've missed performing with the group.

Summer is getting close, and I have SO much to do.
Auditions to book, exams to register for, courses for next year to look into... and a bunch of other things to think about.

Also, find the times when I take over the blog kind of funny.
It's like I don't write ever, and then when I do I do it ALL THE TIME!

Love you girls.

And Monika, you have to let me know if you're back from camping on the 12th or not!

LOVE YOU GIRLS!

love the pants

This evening I went to see a staged version of The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants.
It was SO good!
Like actually.
I wish I could have had you all there to watch it with me :)

I'm SO excited for summer.
We need to have SOOOO many sleepovers.
Like actually, I feel like we need to make a game plan so we all can get the most out of our time that we can have together.
Life is moving on so fast. We need to use this summer as a time to bond as much as humanly possibly(without getting completely sick of one another, which isn't even possible).
My tent is always availible, so we had better get planning.

Also, we have to 18-year-olds, so we can book a site at pinehurst together!!!!!!!
THIS SUMMER IS GOING TO ROCK!

manhattan roof top wedding

New York was fun :D
*side note* my parents are old, and make me so angry like 88.99% of the time. Like actually. I'm at the point where I see the holes in their parenting, and it makes me mad.


Anyway. If you took those two out of my week entirely, it would have been the best 5 days ever! :)
There was SOOOOO much awesome indian food prepared by all my lovely aunts.
I got to see some of m cousins I hadn't seen since I was 9.
They are so.... GROWN UP AND HANDSOM!!!!
I mean wow.
I feel like I missed so much. They aren't the little boys I used to play with. I hardly know them, and it makes me sad and angry.
Also the fact that I missed so much with everybody.
Kamela is MARRIED NOW!!! I mean, she's left the home she's lived in for almost 34 years.
Now when I go back everything will be different.

Kamela got married on a roof top in Manhattan, and behind them you could see the empire state building in all its glowing glory!
The wedding was AWESOME!!!!!!
The ceremony was on the roof. It had rained all day, but let up and was beatiful for the 30 minutes the wedding took, and then started again after everyone went back down to the loft.
The reception was in a loft on the 3rd floor.
There were all sorts of artsy statues and art. It was AWESOME!!!! :D
The music was great. They only played 2 slow songs at the very beginning of the night, and that was okay cause they had this Bob Marley type guy with the dreads and everything, who they had found playing in th esubway or something :P lol. I don't actually know... there was some sort of exciting story of where they found him that I didn't quite catch.
But after that ALL the music was fun and fast and perfect to dance to(Katlin, you would have loved it) ;)
They had lots of latin sounding stuff.

IT WAS SOOOO FUN!!!!! We started dancing around 8ish and I didn't stop until 1am :P
It was a good party! The kids had a great time, the adults had a great time, I HAD A GREAT TIME!!!! :D

Also my dress was super cute :)


I'll get some pictures up somewhere... eventually :P

We went to the states and didn't buy anything.
Yup, we went and the only thing I got was a virus on my computer :S
Right now the dumb thing is in getting fixed.
So here I am, at the trusty library.
Once again.

OOOOOOH!!!!!! i'm planning on going to New York this summer!!!! by myself! :D
Nothing is in stone, but I might fly there, and then stay with whoever will have me.
It's going to be awesome.
And I may be taking someone with me :D :D :D :D
So yeah.
Those of you will summer plans, are missing out. Just sayn' :P

If this actually becomes a thing I will be SOOOOOOO HAPPY!!!!!!
I'll be needing someone to come exploring with me :)

Just putting that out there ;)


Well, I may not blog for a while... we'll see when I get my computer back :P

a taste of summer

This weekend is teasing me... It's taunting me with what summer should feel like. Fresh food, warm weather, campfires and fireworks, road trips with the fam... Except for the fact that school is looming in the much to near future :(
Gahhh stress. So much to do, its hard to enjoy myself today :S I've got this massive physics project, worth 10% of our mark. And drama final is on WEDNESDAY (I'm in major panic mode about that!). And a physics test. And a chem one coming up too. Yay.
On Saturday the fam packed up the car and headed to South Hampton to visit some family friends (aka My dad's friend George and Nyell's friends Stew and Kevin). They moved up there a few years ago, and Nyell goes up to visit all the time, but I'd never been. THEIR PLACE WAS GORGEOUS. This big country home in the middle of nowhere, with a barn (turned into a music room) and a bunkie for the boys, on this lovely piece of land 5 minutes from the beach.
It reminded me so much of Kimbercote it was crazy.
I miss our childhood :(
Also, if we ever go again I want to bring one of you guys :) It was fun this weekend, with fireworks and ice cream and beachcombing, but it would have been better with a friend.
On another note, my dad is SUCH a hippie. I kinda forget about that until I see him with all his friends, and then I'm like ohhh yeahhhh, you guys are funny :P

Tulips and buds!

Hellooo there :D
So, my life has pretty much been that i work everyday and do miscellaneous things throughout the evening :P
Kathryn and i jog everyday- it's exhausting lmao- but i guess good for us in the long run. Work has been good, some crazy customers, but overall good.I now have a place to live in september! So that's a relief. My rent is only going to be $685 a month!!! Thats going to be less than half the cost of the cheapest residence option ahaha. I'm super excited!
I start my incar driving with driving school this saturday, so that's exciting :D however i wont be able to finish my inclass time until june 30th :o
He cancelled my ideal two week session because no one signed up x__x
But oh well- it's happening so that's nice :)
But yeah, i can't book my test until my last in-class session so that means i wont have it until july- plus word on the street is it takes 3-4 weeks to book your test ahead of time. But ohhhh well, it's just nice to be getting it over with!
I feel like i've been taking care of all sorts of responsibilities and such lately.

Basically i'm trying to work as many hours as possible haha. It's freaky- september seems to be looming ahead of me! (not to burst your bubbles since you haven't started your summer's yet... ;P)

When i get back from canoeing in June i want to get into more barista stuff! Bubbletea is number one on my list so i'm going to be making a few purchases.. ;)
I've so far achieved my jogging goal and i've sewed one dress already (more like altered something to my liking... ;P)
So i'm quite satisfied with my summer accomplishments so far! Sometimes i get sick of work (more like sick of customers) but then i remember exactly what i'm working for and it's manageable!

no one has blogged in a while...

So I thought I'd change that.
You're welcome ;)

The only problem is, I've been sick all weekend and NOTHING has happened that I'd consider worth telling you about. I legit didn't get out of bed for 4 days. I thought I was going to die lol.
Buuut hopefully I'm on the mend now. School today was not great, but at least I was there.

This time of year is being way too stressful for my liking. Everything is just piling up, and I'm feeling super overwhelmed. Ugh.
I just want it all to be over :(

On a better note though, summer is so close I can almost taste it... I'M SO EXCITED! PLEASEPLEASEPLEASE let's hang out every day and I don't even care what we do, we can do NOTHING and I'll be perfectly happy :D

20.5 hours

Blogger was down for 20.5 hours and I thought I would go insane.

Well... not really, I just didn't really like it :P


The show is going AMAZING!!!! The only thing is that it's such an emotionally heavy show, that it can be difficult to get into night after night.
Even though you try to stay in the moment, you know how its going to end, and then when its gets there, I feel so drained I don't want to react.

It's so sad that we've just started performing, and its already almost over.

I wish I could be in a show that ran for months, or a whole year, instead of just a weekend.
I think that would be amazing.
That's why I need to get into a pro-show :P
It would fix everything.


OUT BABY BIRDIES HAVE ALL HATCHED!!!!
They are the ugliest things I've ever seen.
lol. Either check out the pic on FB, or I should be putting pictures on at least one of my other blogs soon(now that blogger is back) :P


I HAVE A FAVOUR TO ASK ALL OF YOU!!!(except Katlin... since shes already done it a while ago :P)
Can you please go to my book blog and become a 'follower'?
You don't ever even have to read it, I just want to get more followers so I can make a more official endeavour with this :)
Just go to this link:
http://thebookshelfsnooper.blogspot.com/

And follow :)

THANKS LOVERLIES!!!!

We are in need of sistar time pronto <3

sick day

Well today was thoroughly pointless. All I did was lay in bed and eat pumpkin muffins. ALL DAY. And listen to my ipod and drift in and out of sleep. And watch TV on my computer. But still. Today just felt so... wasted :(
Apparently one of the secretaries offered me a job (through my dad) for the first couple weeks of summer, doing office work with flexible hours. I don't want to take it, because I want summer to be fun, not spent in the school doing mindless work and wishing I was out in the sunshine. But I do need the money. And it's only for a couple weeks. And it would be good experience for my resume. So I don't know :S
If it wasn't the FIRST few weeks it would be different. By the end of July I might want some kind of structure to fill my days, especially if you girls are away on holidays. But right after exams the LAST place I'll want to be is in that school... Gah I just don't know, I keep going back and forth in my head of what I should do.
I'm SOO excited for summer, but I'm also pretty dependent on structure and order and schedules and routine. And summer is this big stretch of nothing besides a couple hours of coaching... I don't even have holidays planned. That kind of scares my brain, because I depend on my crazy schedule to keep me sane sometimes.
Right now, I'm worried my days will just be this big stretch of nothing.
Maybe that's okay. Summer CAN be about doing nothing.
But my brain just doesn't think like that.

show week is here!

This week is going by so fast!
Tomorrow is my dress rehearsal(that Savannah is coming to see)
:)
And then its on to the shows!

This show is getting really good! You know a show must be good when it moves more than 50% of the cast to tears at some point through out every run.
It actually pretty funny that at the end of every show the cast is a mess. Everyone is sobbing and hugging eachother. lol.
Thats good theatre for you ;)

second last comp :O

Heyheyhey!!
Today I finished the second last full competition of this year!! My life is going by soooo fast like it feels like yesterday was the first competition :S It's so scary!

But anyways the competition went really, really well! We got second top studio which was really awesome! I also got a bunch of overall kind of things, both for my solos and groups! It was a fairly amazing weekend dance wise. I wrote more in the journals, like eight pages worth actually :$ lol

OMG I'm so, so, so, excited for Michigan!! It's going to be amazing :D The weird thing is that it's going to be a fairly small competition, like one day :P but there are also some really good overalls so we'll have more chance of winning them, than if there was a giant studio like Joanne Chapmans, PDA(Performing dance arts) or CDC(Canadian Dance Company) or something. But yeah it's really been bugging me, like all the overalls I won this year have been second place and like it's still really good, but I just really want to get first! Like just be the best. My mom told me to get mad about never getting first overall lol. So yeah, this week on thursday, we're having dance, but a shortened night because a bunch of people are going down that night instead of Friday, but I'm leaving Friday before noon, so basically it means that there will be a lot of time to practice this week right before Michigan so thats really good:)
K thats all for now<3<3

2:22

that's what time it is right now. Op, 2:23 now. That's Saturday May something, but I do know that it's now 7 weeks till graduation. I like to think of it in terms of weeks, not days. That way I plan it in little packages, a sort of phrasing in a sense. The past two weeks have been as demanding as they can possibly have been. That last break came at the wrong time for me...there is no time to ease back into the grand scheme of things, it's like jumping into the deep end, but entering the bottom of the ocean and hoping you'll make it to the surface in time to breathe.
I can't even express my body's relief that it is the end of the week, even though the next three are going to be possibly even more hectic.
I don't think I can get into the details, I won't be able to pull myself out of them, but lets just say I'm doing everything I possibly can in every aspect that I can possibly have some relation to.
know what is especially weird? the closer I come to making decisions and for assembling the major next steps, the more uncertain everything is. It's this complex, interconnected web and I feel like a little fly, applying all of its energy while a big black spider looms as the decision maker.
wow, nice analogy Maya, really uplifting. Great, now I'm even talking to myself.
know what is so cool? I had to give my computer time to think, as internet was slow, and I kinda left this post for over an hour while I was taking a shower and packing things up, and now it is 3:33!
very very awesome.
I think I'll end this while the awesomeness prevails, don't want some silly spider stealing its glory.
love you girls with all my heart,
Maya

I'm back, by popular request ;)

This is for you Katlin.


So. IT'S THEATRE BUILDING WEEK!
On Wednesday morning the arena was just a big empty space with un-recognizable junk around the walls.
 Now, it's a half built theatre with a full fledged stage and impressive lighting units.
We won't talk about the state of the audience risers as they were went I left yesterday... lets just say it feels like I'm terribly sore today, and for no real benefit.
The inside of my elbows are killing me, and my wrists are not liking anything at all.

I'm SOOOOO EXCITED FOR THE SHOW!
At this time next week, I will already be done the student matinee, as well as one evening show.
There will be two down and only four more to go :(

I'm at the library right now.
I'm supposed to be doing work right now... but I don't have my head-phones, so I can't listen to my math lessons right now any way.
I'm really liking my teachers.
This week was the first time I've ever really communicated with my math teacher, and that was to ask her if it was alright if I could hand in my assignment late(its due today and I haven't even started :P)
Her reply was along the lines of:

Yes. Whenever you get it in is fine.

I love my life.
Also. I got 100% on two English assignments in a row. hahaha. So I'm feeling pretty good about that right about now.
My math mark is still lower than I would really like, but at this point it doesn't matter.
I'll just get it over with and  do my best for next year.


SO MUCH CONGRATULATIONS SAVANNAH!!!!
I knew you were talented(and I know you knew that too) but it's always nice to have an outside party confirm that :)

I GOT A LETTER FROM MAYA YESTERDAY!!!! (L)
A letter from Maya is like a little burst of sunshine(so is a hug from Monika... something else that happened yesterday) :D

Well... back to Macbeth, or procrastinating. Which ever happens first :P

Yesterday:P

Just in case you girlies didn't know, yesterday was national Star Wars day... MAY the fourth be with you LOL

Sorry I thought it was funny:P

MORE amazingness!!!!!!

Ok so why today was amazing.

Well I did 32 fouettes again, which I haven't been able to do since last Thursday,(one time I got to 30, and the other time 31, killer I know, I only needed one more:( but whatever) tonight I did 32 again AND I wasn't feeling up to par,(I think Kaya got me sick, same symtoms) but just my thoat really so it's not too bad.

But now for the main event. So school today wasn't great, like I've had this weird stomach thing going on and off for about two weeks, mostly when I dance and it was hurting, and then my last two period classes we're super lame (like a lot of the time) and I was a little pissed off because in English we have to work in groups sometimes, just in highlighting key points in To Kill a Mockingbird, and I ALWAYS end up doing everything, like it's not for marks or anything but the people who I always do it with (the poeple at my table) never do ANYTHING!! Then my phone started vibrating because someone was calling, but I was in the middle of class so I couldn't exactly answer it, but after school, I called my mom cause sometimes she'll call me if she's not picking me up from school like normal, but I got no answer. So I go to my car and just get in whatever, and my moms like "Savannah, guess what came today" *holding a large brown envelope* Turns out it was my ballet exam results! And I got a 77!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG I'm soooo happy:D it's the same mark I got on my Intermediat, exept that this was a harder exam, and I only did it in ONE year!!!:D (for those of you who don't know, most people do Advanced foundation for a year, and then do their Advanced 1)

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I'm just soooooo happy!!!!!!!!!!

Ok I have to go but hopefully I'll be able to blog about the weekend on Sunday because I don't think this competition ends late that day:)

track pros and cons

I feel about a thousand times saner after running today. I completely believe that exercise makes you happier and healthier mentally. Today was 100% proof of that:)
I was in a super emo kind of mood, and feeling just generally not good enough. But I'm alright now.
I seriously didn't want to go to track today, because I all I wanted was to go home and take a nap. Plus it was raining, so my options were a) do indoor track training (blehhh I hate this) and walk home and get soaked or b) get a ride home with my dad and take a nap. Option b) was looking pretty tempting haha.
BUT luckily because I go with Meagan, I didn't want to ditch her so I went. And really, we didn't work that hard :P But I'm still super glad I did a bit.
And the rain on the way home was good, it cooled me off:)
I'd reeeeeeally like some nicer weather though. Track inside SUCKS. Like, sure, I'd LOVE to run laps around the corridors, do jumping drills(I'm not a high jumper so...), pointlessly work on starts (I'm not competing so...), or do super easy ab workouts. Or run stairs if the teachers are feeling mean lol. So much fun:S
Plus, when we're inside I feel like no one goes full out or even attempts to do the workload. Outside they HAVE to, because the teachers can watch them all the way around the track. But inside they can fake it.
I just want to be outside in the fresh air, get some sun on my face, and actually feel like I'm WORKING OUT. Lol.
Anyways... Today started off sucky, but track made it kinda better:)

I GOT IN!

Most of you already know... i got into uni!!!!! :D :D wooohooooo!!! some confirmation!!! lol. Now im just dealing with this mess of residence madness lol
but wow one person already responded and answered my questions!
Basically, i got into this 10,000+ dollar residence which wasnt what i wanted.... x___x lol.
i wanted the cheap one 7,000 with no mandatory meal plan, and single rooms. I think i will possibly get in... i mean those are all legit reasons..mostly the financial one lol. But yeah, i guess the worst thing that could happen is i dont get into the one i want and end up in the $10,000 one. Or i could live with maya :P although that would be an upgrade... not a downgrade lol.
Anywho, it's exciting i finally know im in!
lol there's a story to how i found out.... Pingping found out before i did :P
Yeeeeeeep. I am currently at starbucks since internet sucks at my house! So yeah i asked pingping to check my email because i needed to email my boss... and yeah lol after days of me waiting to hear from the uni- the email arrives the time my internet is down and i get pingping to check it for me :P
it was exciting. i woke up my mom haha! so yeah i didnt actually get to see the news myself until about an hour ago :P
thats all for now!<3
