Summer Lovin'

     Hot diggity. Summer is right around the corner. You know what that means; slowly screwing up my sleep schedule and becoming nocturnal all while eating too much ramen. However, that was last year, this year is going to be different. In high school, I'm taking a zero hour class, which mean I have to be at school by 6:55am. Darn. I am the complete opposite of a morning person. However, this summer I am determined to change that. I'm slowly going to wean myself off of the hours I sleep. So each morning, I'll set my alarm a little bit earlier until I get up to 6:00am. So by then, I'll be used to waking up early. Since I'm lonely, I'll mostly be watching Netflix over summer. Unfortunately, I'm down on shows. Does anyone have any tv show suggestions? Anyway, I'm sure only half of my summer will be bad (mornings ;-;)  What are your summer plans?

Call Me Creepy

Image
     I'm a strange person with strange interests. It's weird. If you've read one of my posts from a few months back, you'll now that I have an interest with serial killers and unsolved cases. They're just so interesting. I make my parents worried because of my obsession. I mean, it's not like I'll become a serial killer...Right? When I told my dad I wanteded book called E ncyclopedia of Serial Killers by Michael Newton ,  he was completely mortified. My favorite unsolved cases are of course, the Zodiac killer, and the Black Dahlia, but I also love the murder of       . It's all just so lovely. I am what you'd describe as creepy. You can call me creepy all you want, trust me I know.  Not only do I like the gore of the killers, I also love the psychology. It's so interesting to get into the mind of killers and find out what drove them to kill. If you're like me and want the book, you can get it of Amazon. Money well spent.

Ukrainian Hip Hop

     I love all kinds of music; rock, pop, alternative, jazz, rap, Ukrainian hip hop, all kinds. I just really love music. Music is my life. It makes me feel happy, sad, relaxed. I play music and I write music. It's so great. If you've ever listened to music, you'll know that it makes you want to dance. I don't know why we can the impulse to dance then we hear that funky fresh music (sorry). The other day I was playing that dank Seinfeld theme on my piano, and I was just jamming to it. A bit later I hoped in the shower and realized that the lit theme song was still in my head. So I decide it was a good idea to dance in the shower. Well I slipped and fell. I fell because I was dancing to the Seinfeld theme song, which was playing in my head. Wow. I have no idea why I thought it was a good idea. I guess I wasn't cognizant as to what I was doing. What is some kind of music you like? Might I recommend some Ukrainian hip hop, it's pretty great.

"He's handsome, he's tall that is from side to side"

     Ah yes, the spring musical. This year, we are doing Fiddler on the Roof . The title is a lyric from the song, Matchmaker , where my friends roast me. I play Yente, the Matchmaker. The show is this weekend and I can't believe that it's almost over. It feel like just yesterday I was auditioning. The week before the show is called "tech week" where we practice until eight and do daytime shows with costumes, makeup, light, sound, everything. Tech week is the most crucial part of the show. It's truly phenomenal the way the show is coming together. I'm so sad that it's my last year with the d100 musical, since it's 4-8th grade. I've always loved the musical and I'm going to miss it and everyone in it. Ah, tradition!

Hopes and Dreams (and dead bodies)

     "What do you want to be when you grow up?" A question I dread. It's like one moment, you have it all figured out. Then the next, it's like Armageddon. I have so many interests—it's hard to pick a profession. But I don't have to decide now, right? However, if I did, I would choose something medical. Maybe a doctor, a surgeon. I would also like to be a medical examiner or something in forensics. Investigating bodies, figuring out how they died. The thing that really peaks my interest is anthropology. Mostly because I'm a sucker for human evolution and culture. I'm the least decisive person, so I don't know what I would do if I had to pick. But I suppose I have a lot of time to decide. I am a little apprehensive to grow up, though. But that's a topic for another blog.

The Easter Games

     Nothing says Easter like fighting to the death with the people you love. My immediate family isn't religious, but my extended family is. So we are courteous enough to celebrate. My Easter was pretty great. We don't get to see our extended family all that often to it was delightful to see them again. We ate the finest food I've ever had, it was turkey and homemade potatos (I've been living off ramen for the last month so this was a step up). We ate at 3:00, which is strange. I suppose that's the universal time to eat dinner when it's a holiday. After dinner, my cousins and I battled with foam swords and shields. It was like the roman times all over again. We jumped a few fences to get to the park, later on. At the park, we played a playground game called Woodchips, where the person that's "it" has to walk around with their eyes closed and try to tag someone. If you're touching the ground the the person called "woodchips!" Then the

200 Hours and Counting

     I'm a Netflix junkie. Over break, I defied the laws of time by watching around 200 hours of Netflix. I have no regrets. To others, my spring break could be described as sad, lonely, or solitary confinement, but I think of it as dramatic, tear jerking, and fun. I binged watched Grey's Anatomy,  The Office, and The Guild. I had enough frozen hot pockets and Coca Cola to last my entire exhibition. It was a journey filled with love and hatred and tears. I have no life. My mother is concerned for my wellbeing. What are your favorite Netflix shows?
