getting off the ground

Published on September 20, 2005 in Friends & Family, Livin' La Vida Loca and School. 0 Comments

The title of this post has a happy connotation and an angry connotation, and today I am going for both. Let’s start with happy.

MWTV is going great. The applications are almost all done, we just need to set dates and then finalize them, and then they’ll be out! Thanks for waiting paitently, everyone.

This whole Katrina thing has been a great experience, but it’s been a hinderance to me getting this team off the ground. I’ve spent so much time recruiting people to go on air and present totals and then writing their scripts that I feel behind in the original date that I had set to get the team up and running. Luckily, tomorrow is the LAST day that we will be doing Katrina coverage, so my mornings and lunch periods can be more focused on getting the team kicked off. I wanna start off strong! STRONG!!! *Muscles buldge*

We also have an MWTV show tonight at Back to School night, but it’s more focused on the “adults” than it is on the actual show. Still, it’ll be great if we can get people to be encouraged by their parents to sign up.

And now for the bad part. I’ve actually been realizing that some of my friends really represent all that is bad and evil and the world. People are doing horrible things because they want more zest in their life, and they’re breaking other people down and making them feel bad about themselves and it’s horrible and I’m SICK OF IT!!! HEAR ME!!! SICK OF IT. Come on people! Work with me! It doesn’t make sense and, sooner or later, you’re going to regret it.

It also seems like some of my old friends don’t….er….like me anymore. Today in Science, Steven and Brian were like totally plotting against me. They didn’t let me do a damn thing in our retarded little Matchbox car lab. Brian got to pull the car back and then he got to measure and do every freakin thing because “he does it right.” Bull-diddly-shit. I need to get some new friends.

It certainly is a shame that I can’t make use of the phrase “I’m in the mood for Chinese,” considering that the only Chinese food that I’ll eat is rice, sesame chicken, the occasional egg roll, and fortune cookies.

just peachy

Things around here are very confusing. Too many people are lying about things or keeping too many things secret. I’m sick of people isolating themselves because they’re too afraid to share anything. If you have something to say, shout it to the world. If you tell one person, eventually everyone’s gonna know. Then, people get mad at me and yell at me and cuss me out. Two days later, they’ll apologize because they were PMS’ing. It may work the first one or two times if that excuse is used sporadically, but not every week.

Just like I told Cara, if Drama were a class, I’d be in G/T AP. Sad, huh?

The latest fad at Mayfield is MySpace‘s. I’ve even got one. They pretty cool and easy to skin. But, with every fad, soon all the geeks and wierd kids are gonna one and then it’ll go out of style. At least I can say I was one of the first-wave Mayfield Myspacers.

Luci sprained her wrist yesterday when she fell off a pogo stick so now she has a soft cast and it sucks. Her currently mindset is that since she’s so hurt and alone that I’m her servant and she can get back at me for every single thing that ever happened. It’s a twisted world, isn’t it?

The MWTV show for Back to School Night is almost ready. All I need to do is plan with the techs and talk about script stuff with Mrs. Griffith.

On a final note, one Friday we raised $201 for our Dollar Drive! That brings our grand total to about $890!!!! We’re doing great, you guys. We can easily surpass $1000 even without the teacher’s donations.

so what if rori is the only person with good surveys

Today has been very….busy to say the least.

We’re having some people over for dinner, so of course mom went into Super-Overdrive-Cleaning woman and dished out fifteen thousand jobs for everyone to do. I washed the deck furniture, washed the walls, Swiffer’d the floor, and carried crap all around the house. I also took a two-hour nap in between, but we’ll keep that a secret, kay?

I also went to DLC today to fill out my TYA papers for Grease, but luckily I didn’t have to audition. I said “Hi” to Ms. Debbie and Ms. Shari and I saw Lemon Hannah there! It was a nice reunion. There’s apparently tons of new people trying out. The girl I heard wasn’t that good, but she doesn’t have to know that in case she does get in. I don’t even know what her name was anyway.

And finally, I fixed Chelea’s Blog. I upgraded her to WordPress 1.6 Alpha, and so for it went retty well. There were a few minor database problems, but after about eh…..three hours we got them all sorted out.

Now I have to go get ready or our “company” (AKA go hide in my room with my iPod).

crap in the classroom

Today, Mr. Brown’s room smelled like crap. Crap. I’m serious when I say crap. And I don’t think it was because all of the windows were closed.

Mr. Marashi was our sub today, and I seriously felt sorry for him. Our class is full of a lot of jerks who cannot seem to shut up for even 2 minutes and listen to him talk! It annoyed me so much that there are so many people like that. It pissed me off a lot. He looked like he was about to just break down and cry. I wanted to hug him and bitchslap everyone who wouldn’t shut up, but then I’d smell like crap.

In English, we had Mrs. Long again. She was sick of us after 40 minutes, yesterday, so just imagine how she was today. I tried to behave but it’s really hard when she pronounces every name in the first row wrong. Then she asked Caitlin (Or Ket-lin, as she says it) to wet a paper towel for the overhead and Caitlin was gone for like 10 minutes :-P It was hysterical.

Guess which teachers are gonna rip our faces off tomorrow (And I’m not referring to O’Connel ;) )

Speaking of Mrs. O’Connell, today we graded eachother’s maps. Seun gave me a 100/100, even though I didn’t label the Gulf of Mexico. Someone also messed Olamidae’s up, so we both went up to tell her so she could fix our grades. Olamidae showed her, and Mrs. O’Connell let her keep the points since she was honest, but when I showed her my map, she said “You can keep the points since you were honest. Oh, wait, you got a 100. You can only keep the 100 if you got a 100. You can just have your 96 back.” Don’t get me wrong; I love Mrs. O’Connell (don’t we all?), but sometimes she’s a little crazy.

welcome to the world!

My weeked was awesome, and it was packed with fun stuff.

I wasn’t home for more than an hour at once on Saturday. First, we went to the Maryland vs. Clemson game up at College Park. That was pure awesomeness. Even though we had to sit in the upper-deck areas, I still enjoyed the game. My only complaint is that it was about 100* up there at any given time.

Getting home was the fiasco for that event. We got onto one of the Quickbusses, thinking it would take us to the Comcast Center, but it took us to the College Park metro station. So, we waited there for about 30 mins waiting for the bus back to College Park. Once we got there, we had to walk all the way across the campus to the parking lot, but we eventually got home.

Then, I went over to my wonderful girlfriend’s house for the evening. It wasn’t exactly a “quiet” evening, considering that it was Bri, Cara, Kelsey, Lizzie, and I. We talked for quite a while and looked at all their friends’ Webshots albums. Then we tore up a picture of a certain person and went to throw her into the pool, but I ended up pushing Bri in, and in turn she pulled me in. Then, when we were in the pool, the pool monster tried to eat me. I swear, that litle vacuum followed me around and tried to eat my flip flop (I fell in with all my clothes on). Then, I ate Lizzie and Kelsey’s hair, and everyone took pictures of it (Yes, I know we’re all idiots). After that we hung out some more and looked at pics and stuff. It was great, even though I went home soaking wet :)

Today was pretty good, too. Rendie didn’t show up this morning so I typed Kelsey/Ashley’s script, the tech script, and the opening/closing script, and then I held the main script for Julio and Jess. MWTV is always great, and Nicole and Valery are on air tomorrow! Yay!

Band auditions were also today. One word: butcher. Must I say more?

The rest of the day was pretty good…..at lunch I finished typing the anchor application. I’m hoping to get applications out by not next Friday, but the NEXT Friday. Stay on the look out for them!

On a final note, I’m using Firefox 1.5 Beta. It rawks!
