Another Day, Another Dollar

Well, in my case, probably a dime...Anyway, I'm offically fifteen now. I feel exactly like I did yesterday. Of course, I'm at my dad's and everything seems to be a little out of touch with reality here. I talked back to Celina today and found out that I'm on my way to a permit! Yay permits! Watch out populace, Chris is on the road! Anyway, we didn't do a whole lot today, just took it easy. I had cake of course, and we ate at Salt Grass, which was also pretty good.

Oh, I almost forgot! I know that most of you will probably not care about this next part, so I'll color it a different color and you can skip over it if you like. For Christmas, my mom gave my dad (here in Rockwall) the deluxe special edition 2-disc Phantom of the Opera movie soundtrack (ask Brian, he knows what I'm talking about). So anyway, I started drooling all over it when I saw it on the couch two days ago and I borrowed it. My dad still doesn't know I have it, so I'm uploading it onto the computer so he'll never know I had it. But it's so freaking awesome!! I can't wait 'till we go and see it live!!

Anyway, I think I'm going to go to bed now. Good night!

Ahh, The Joys of the Holidays

Well, we're halfway through and I don't know what to do right now. I'm tired of "going with the flow". I want to plan something for once. I don't even know what I'm doing for my birthday tomorrow! Any suggestions? Maybe I'll go work on act I...o wait, I've already done that, three times. How about Lord of the Flies, considering it has to be finished sometime next month. O well, hope you guys have a happy new year!

Besides "Passed Away"

Would sanitation make a good euphemism for death?
How about natural selection?
Any others?

Ho! Ho! Ho!

Ok, yea, the title is stupid I know, but considering the fact that I have to leave soon and I won't be on the blogging scene tomorrow, I had to come up with something. Anyway,

MERRY
CHRISTMAS!!!

Yes, there is a reason why CHRIST is captalised. Just doing my duty to put Christ back into Christmas.

The One In Shining Armor

Here's a thoughtful poem written by yours truly.

What happened,
To the Knight?
The one in shining armor?
The chivalry, and the code that bound him?

What happened,
To that knight?
The one so courageous,
That he stood at the front of his men in battle?

What happened,
To that knight?
Who drove into the middle of the fray,
And even when his helmet flew off, he still fought?

What happened,
To that knight?
Whose men were bound to him,
And they fought with him, to the end?

What happened,
To that knight?
Who fought in the battles
That were already lost?

What happened,
To that knight?
Who slammed into the enemy,
With his men behind him, and when he died,
Many mourned the loss?

What happened,
To this Knight?
Pieces of him live on,
A little bit in all of us,
Less in some, more in others.

Is there one, though,
Who is fully this Knight,
Fighting the battle of this world,
Holding to his code of honor,In the face of death?

In case you were bored

Here's some sites to visit if you are bored.

For the humorous ones...

For the religious ones...

And for the passionate, artistic ones...

The cool thing is that they are all done by the same guy!

Did somebody say OAP?

I think somebody did. Today was the first rehearsal and there is not much to say about it. We found out that our version of "The Crucible" was way to long (after cuts), about an hour and a half actually. So, we're going to maim it some more and hope for the best. Anyway, I never got called in for the "incident" today, although Mr. W did yell at me (what's new). That seems to be all he does these days. Why do I always get caught when the real culprit does not? O well. Life moves on. It's too short to worry about his yelling fits and name calling.

Just remember for those of you in the "incident", in the words of Corey, "I've not said a word. Nobody here can testify that I've said a word!"

I really can't think of a name for this post

Yea, it's been a while. It's been a very, very busy yet very, very sslllooowww week. Did anybody else notice that (besides Julia)? Anyway, it snowed (yay!) and we got to go to school late. We had another football game and won...again. So, it was a very normal week (if you can call my life normal). I did finish The CRUCIBLE! IT WAS AWESOME! And I die such a hero *tear slowly rolls down cheek*. Anyway, I can't wait to get started, although I have no idea what to expect. Finals are this week. We get to get out of school at QUARTER 'TILL ONE! Yes, I'm excited, it's a whole new prospect to me. So, I guess I'll see you guys tomorrow (unless of course, you are one of those random bloggers and happened to come across mine, then, I won't see you tomorrow, and if I did, I wouldn't know who you were anyway).

And one more thing...

Very very short version (you have got to hear it live. Ask Stephen or me and we'll grace with our wonderful voices and sound effects...that's right, you heard me. Sound effects)

On the seventh day of Christmas my true love gave to me,
seven drummers drumming,
six obnoxious trumpets,
fffiiivvee frilly flutes.
four french horns,
three euphoniums (trombones, take your pick)
two alto saxes *nice and poised*
and one great big tuuubaaa!!!

On the "Band"wagon

Yea, corny jokes! Anyway, I'm supposed to be doing Biology and my Spanish project, but why do that when I can do this? Not much happened today except for the fact that I totally caught Mrs. Baldridge off guard by trying out for one act play. I wonder how I did...here's another one of those quizzes you can take a look at while I ponder that...hmmm...

How You Life Your Life
You seem to be straight forward, but you keep a lot inside.You're laid back and chill, but sometimes you care too much about what others think.Your friends tend to be a as quirky as you are - which is saying a lot!You tend to always dream of things within reach - and you usually get them.
