WE DID NOT JUST RUN AWAY FROM BYE BYE BIRDIE!! we erm...liked it. yeah... but whatever anyone tells you, WE DID NOT ESCAPE AT THE END AND RUN FOR OUR LIVES UNTIL WE GOT BEHIND SOME TREES BY THE LITTLE PARK THING!! AND WE WEREN'T RUNNING AWAY FROM THE UGLY PEOPLE!!

well, it was quite interesting actually. we got there at 7 feeling very out of place. that was confirmed when we got to the door and realized that there were no ticket sales; it was a preview only for friends and family. which, i guess, should rightfully include nicole and i as we knew like half of the cast. distantly maybe...but we knew them. well anyway, it's good to have friends in high places. we ended up getting in.

and omg kyle was there. or erm...'trevor'. and i'm glad he was there cuz at least i had SOMETHING hot to look at. scott patteson wasn't onstage nearly long enough. the only problem was that kyle makes an odd face when he's playing the drums...but hey, no one's perfect. well, no one's ALWAYS hot, i might say.

maybe i'll be a tough theatre critic when i grow up, but bye bye birdie sucked. the singing sucked, the acting was actually okay, but it just really wasn't enjoyable. props to the girl who played the mom and joe. o, and props to alison too, she was good, and didn't deserve to bow with the little people. aside from them, it was pretty boring. and when it wasn't boring, it was torture. 'sug', as i now call this person (it's an acronymn for ummm...3 adjectives) just killed me. yes, i died. the pain...the agony... it was just REALLY REALLY bad. i can't stress that enough. it was just awful.

well, i don't really have much else to say...i'd go on about 'sug' in a private entry, but i'd have to tweek my friends list.

i hope eric brings yahya to marching band tomorrow...that wud be cool...then i'll have 2 hot things to look at!!

well, i think i've had enough of musical theatre for one night. back to marching band...

marching band again today. we learned how to walk sideways and stuff. an old clarinet leadership staffer, eric elms, came today. christiana and i both agree: he's helllllla sexy. but from what jeff has told me, he's kind of disgusting. oh well. he's coming back again tomorrow. i wonder how i can screw up so he has to touch me to fix it. well, i'll ponder that.

we got a piece of music called red/burgundy, our finale, today. omfg. it's in 10/8 time. and the meter changes every few measures from 3+3+2+2 to 3+2+3+2. it's freakin impossible!! actually, i'm sure i'll get used to it, but damn...

i think we have all of our music now for the show: Colours. my favorite is dark ivy. it's really cool. techinically, dark saphire is 'cool' from westside story, but anyway...

i have a voice lesson in 10 minutes. last time we did musical theory. i don't know if i can handle any more music theory after that 10/8 stuff. and i haven't done my 'homework'. too bad.

well i'm REALLY excited for school. honestly. it's gonna be fun. claudia and i roamed around the campus during our lunch break. it's cool.

well anyway, life is good, but too musical right now. maybe i can talk mr. troll into just letting me sing today...

telemarketers
a telemarketer just called. i left him waiting for about 10 minutes and then said that no one was available. i should have asked him to sing for me, but i didn't. i also like the 'what's your number? oh, u can't tell me? that's because you don't like people bothering you at their home, right? WELL NEITHER DO I!!' one that nicole suggested. or the 'what are you wearing?' one.

i coulda sworn that he called me melissa right before i hung up tho. haha. stupid lil imagination. whatever.

so anyway, if you have any good things to say to telemarketers, post them, k? this should be funny...

white water rafting
i'm back from whitewater rafting for 2 days. it was sooo much fun!! i hope i can get the youth group to go, cuz it would be great to visit bob and carol and then go on a one or 2 day trip!! you all should really go; it's great.

we got there after 4 and a half hours of driving on friday night. stayed at bob and carol's house in placerville for the night and ate dinner and visited with them. i didn't realize how much i missed bob's prayers until we said grace for dinner. i almost cried. i really miss him.

the next morning we drove to the white water connection place and had the safety lecture. the guides are hilarious. one of my favorites was 'if you flip over, don't panic because there's an air hole between the raft and you. just get out from under the raft. while under the raft, though, it will be dark and there will be lots of groping. much like a night club...' lmfao.

we then rafted for a full day. we had a great group: one policeman, one high school psychology teacher, a young engaged couple, and my 'family'. the guy who was engaged, nate, was really nice and funny. strong, too. bob, the guide (not the same one that i visted the night prior) kept telling him to take it easy cuz he was overpowering him. we only did class 3 rapids, but it was still fun. we only took a break for lunch, which was sandwiches. YUM.

got back to camp, showered, and talked with nate, krista, and the group that camped near nate and krista. we played trivial pursuit for about an hour and then ate a GREAT dinner. the food on these things is great. steak, lobster, chicken, baked potatoes, salad, EVERYTHING.

after dinner there was a crash n burn slide show of trips before ours and then pictures from that day. (there are little photo companies that camp out by the 'big' rapids and take pictures.) it was pretty funny. there was a picture of a guy who lost his shorts in the rapids...lmfao...and one girl with a hat so big that it looked like she didn't have a head. it was sooo hilarious. i couldn't stop laughing.

after dinner we ate brownies and smores around a campfire while a guy played guitar and sang. by 10:00, 'quiet time', there were lots of drunk guys sitting around the fire and singing some pretty interesting songs... my favorite they didn't finish. the only thing i can remember from that one is 'lets get drunk and screw'. o and there was this guy doing dr. evil impressions every couple of songs. he was great. but thats what you get for serving all the wine and beer you can drink...

brushed my teeth, went to bed. we borrowed a tent from someone and it can hold like 10 ppl. it was frickin huge!! needless to say, i was far away from mom and brian on their air mattress, thank God.

woke up, got dressed, ate breakfast. another great meal. granola, fruit, hot chocolate, potatoes, omlettes.

got in a van and drove up the river a little. (oh, by the way, this was all the south fork of the american river.) rafted some more until about 2, when we got back to camp. packed up our stuff, ate lunch, (hamburgers!) and drove through coloma and stopped at a little craft faire in placerville. i got an anklet. pretty cool.

kept driving till we got home. long drive. ick. but i'm home!! and i guess i have tomorrow free...but then it's band camp for two weeks and then SCHOOL!!

i'm excited. i want the guys. should be fun.

it hurts
my arms hurt, my back hurts, my neck hurts, my head hurts, my legs hurt, my stomach hurts....ahhhhhhhhhhhhggggggggggg! i was an excersising freak last night!! after swimming 25 laps in my pool, i did crunches, push ups, and yoga in my room. after jogging around the park, i went to bed and did crunches, push ups, and yoga in the dark. owwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!

i'm leaving for placerville in half an hour. going to see my old pastor and his wife in their new house. should be fun.

tomorrow morning we're driving to coloma to go white water rafting. more excersise. ugg. and i just realized that they make you wear life vests. so much for a good tan...

i'll be back by monday. monday i start band camp, i think. if i can learn how to play clarinet again, it should be fun. if i can't, then i'll be unhappy. there's always a potential for hot guys tho. but my new obsession isn't taking marching band...grrrrr. he's hella good and he should. the clarinets need him. well, i wouldn't know, but it would be fun to march with him. AHHH I WANT HIM!!

well anyway, see some of you guys on monday. and if not monday, at the orientation thing. i'll have to sneak away early though. they panned it when we're supposed to leave for band camp...yeah...smart. so anyway, i'll see ya then!!
