Just Friends?

Anyone else hate it when a guy you like asks you to hang out as "just friends"? It sucks right? I had that happen today... Let me tell you it sucks!!! Especially when you know the guy likes you! AHHHHH!!!! Ok, sorry about the slight two sentence rant and scream, but it was really bugging me, and still is.... What I want to know is, is he asking me to hang out as friends and hoping it turns into a date, or does he really just want to be friends???? People confuse me!! or maybe I'm overthinking it... I tend to do that...

Obsession #6
DISNEY!!!
I know I've mentioned Disney multiple times in the past blogs, and now you really get to read how much I really do love it! To start off, I've been going to Disney once about every 2 years since I was 9 months old. I'm 19 now, you do the math... My room is themed after Tinker Bell, and if you look carefully around my house you can find all of the subtle Disney things in each room. And mind you, when I say each room I mean EVERY room in the house has something Disney related in it. Also, I know all of the words to basically EVERY Disney song! Go ahead, test me, i dare you!

I'm a what?

So I've officially started my Sophomore year of college, that's really weird for me. I finally adjusted to the fact that I'm in college and now i'm a sophomore? What is this? Well despite my non believing I'm a sophomore I've had a pretty damn good week so far. On Monday I had one class and it was Acting 1. My teacher is from the south with  of course a southern accent and she is friggin hilarious! It's nice to have a teacher with the same sense of humor as me. On our first day we got up close and personal with our classmates as we made letters with our bodies. Today we practiced different kinds of walks and learned how to breath correctly.
Now, my Psyc class is just as awesome. My teacher, whenever a student walked in late, pretended that the student walked into the wrong class before telling them they were in the right room. he cracked a lot of jokes and made fun of himself a little. I spose that is what will make the class more fun then a regular Psyc class.
Today I also went to the JC Players, which is the theater group on campus, and I got a tour of the theater department, and what was I most excited about? I got to walk on the catwalk! Even though i am afraid of heights I got up on the catwalk and looked at the stage from above, and it was fun! After the tour we all played improv games and NINJA! In which I completely dominated! I think I'm gonna be ok this semester!

Obsesion #5
Accents. I love them. I especially love them when the come from a guy. Over the years I have perfected my British accent due to my love of Harry Potter (an obsession of its own). I started by mimiking Emma Watson and continued from there and now I can say that I think it's pretty good. Recently I've been working on my Irish accent due to Damien Mcginty of The Glee Project.

Disney and Bazinga!

So I am officially going to apply to do the Disney College Program in Florida! I would be spending a year in Florida, in Disney, working there! How AMAZING is that?!?!?!?!?! There is a possibility that I could be apart of the performances in Disney or working in one of the shops! Heck, even if I end up cleaning toilets it will be an amazing experience! Disney is a very big part of my life. My family and I go to Disney about every other year. Suffice to say we love Disney, A LOT!!

So I've decided to add an obsession to the end of every blog so this one is the fifth or sixth...ok now i have to check...................ok so its #4... that is if I counted it right...
Obsession #4 (I think)
BIG BANG THEORY! I have a love of a TV show Called Big Bang Theory which is about four scientists at a college, One of which is EXTREAMLY awkward and stubborn and set in his ways. Watching the antics of Howard, Leonard, Sheldon, and Rajh is one of the most entertaining things in the world!

It's Raining, It's Pouring

Rain. Some of my favorite moments in my life and in my favorite movies happened in the rain. For instance in my favorite chick flick The Notebook my favorite scene is on the docks by Noah Calhoun's home when He and Allie have gotten back from a boat ride at it's basically him telling he he still loves her and they embrace and make out in the rain. Yes, I'm aware of how cheesey this is but I am a fan of the cheesey moments in life and in movies.
Another Favorite rain scene of mine occurs in Rocky Horror. Brad and Janet's car has broken down and they of course burst into song as they find their way to Dr. Frankenfurter's mansion.
Let's not forget the EPICNESS that is the Battle of Helm's Deep, which ALSO happened in the rain!
Today I was out bike riding with my dear cousin Sierra and we are on our way back to her home. We are maybe fifteen minuets from her house and the sky completely opened up and poured rain! We were soaked, but it was so much fun to ride my bike out in the rain!
I'll admit I love the rain, and I've always dreamed of having a very meaningful kiss in the rain, maybe one day that will happen, but for now it's a dream that involves one of my favorite things: RAIN.

The Missing Puzzle

Ever feel like you don't belong, like you were meant to be somewhere else? I feel that all the time. "Life's not about fitting in, it's about standing out" but what is standing out if you have no one to share your life with?I never knew where I fit in, and who i could share that standing out with. I have wonderful friends and family where I am but my puzzle piece never really fit in any place I was, until recently. I went to visit my best friend Lain in Indiana for a week a few weeks ago, and I can say with confidence that I feel like I found where I fit. I wish I was still there with Lain and my newly found friends, stargazing at Pride Rock, being obnoxious at the drive-in, yelling at someone for walking two hours in the dark late at night, getting ice cream, renting movies, playing Harry Potter Lego, and maybe even one day Wagon Surfing! (yes, you read correctly, Wagon Surfing.) Sometimes I feel as if life would be easier if I could move there and be apart of this puzzle that my puzzle piece seems to fit into, but like they say, "If life were easy, it'd be a slut," and life is sooooo not a slut. I miss my puzzle in Indiana, but I know that being away from them makes anytime I get to see them so much better. So, for now i remain in Illinois trying to find a puzzle here that might be as great a fit as the one in IN, but even if I don't I know that I did find a puzzle, and I'm not alone.

I Told You It Was Completely Legit!

Okay, I'm bringing up another obsession of mine so bear with me.
#1 Buffy the Vampire Slayer
I've been watching Buffy since it came out when I was a kid, but I haven't watched it in years! About a year ago My friend referenced it, and I caught the reference and we started discussing it. He then let me borrow all of the seasons of it and I watched them a quickly found my love for the show all over again. I then asked my parents for all of the Buffy seasons for Christmas. I got all but two of them so I searched for months to find them both. I found one of them pretty quickly, but I didn't find the second one til just recently. Since then I've been watching the episodes a lot. Tonight my friend yet again referenced my favorite episode of Buffy: Once More With Feeling. This happens to be the musical episode of Buffy in which Zander summons a demon that makes you dance and sing. I promptly put some of the Lyrics as my facebook status and a friend of mine commented. We then decided to revive this musical with me as Buffy, her as Dawn, and we'd ask James Marsters to return to the role of Spike, because come on, who doesn't wanna make out with James Marsters at the end of a musical?

My Head Says One Thing But My Heart Says Another...

Ever had that happen? Your head is being the reasonable one and your heart is being reckless? I'm in that situation currently, with college. I spent a the first semester of my freshmen year at a wonderful school in Indiana. I felt truly at home in this place. I met some of the best friends of my life, I was surrounded by loving Christians like myself, it was absolutely wonderful, until I took on too much and had to leave. I am now at a community college and have a chance to go to Columbia College in Chicago to study Theater, which like I said in one of my previous blogs is my passion. Columbia is known for it's theater program and i could make so many connections to help with my career in the future, but part of me still wants to be at that wonderful school in Indiana. I have no idea where I am supposed to be. Am I supposed to be at this school surrounded by a christian community, or am I supposed to be at his great college that is known for Theater? I suppose only God knows at this point and he is not letting me in on it right now, but I really wish he would.

Never Have I Ever...

Ok so this post is inspired by my friend Jacob who just posted his first post in his blog "Scribblings of a Hopeless Romantic". Firsts are a fun subject to talk about. First kiss, first time on stage, first time that you remember being in Disney, first best friend etc.
I think my favorite first is the first time I remember being in Disney. I've been going to Disney once about every two years since I was nine months old, I'm nineteen now, you do the math. My first memory of Disney is being at a character breakfast and Pluto decided it would be a good idea to try and swallow my head, but of course that didn't work.
Another favorite first of mine is my first Doctor, Doctor Who that is. (I told you I had an obsession) My first Doctor was the amazing Matt Smith. I guess there is no way to elaborate other than to say how amazing he is...
My first kiss was not like I wanted it to be. It was kind of sweet because he asked me if he could kiss me, but he was a sloppy kisser and he tasted of nachos. I couldn't eat nachos for months after that. I do have to say that my best first kiss with a certain guy was wonderful. We were in Disney with our choir our Senior year of HS. He had asked me out on the plane there by coloring me a picture of Beauty and the Beast and writing "If you be my Beauty I'll be your Beast" on the top of it. He waited the entire week that we were there to kiss me. The kiss happened on the side of Cinderella castle while fireworks were going off at midnight on New Years. Pretty Picture Perfect huh?
The most recent first is going to a drive in movie. I don't have any near where I live and while I was visiting some friends in Indiana they took me to one. Not only was it my first time at a drive in, but we were seeing the midnight premier of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows part 2. I'm honestly glad we were at a drive in too, because had we been at a regular theater we would have been kicked out due to the fact that we kept cracking jokes and we were obnoxious and laughing loudly.
So I leave you with my firsts.
