Fall?

Yeah, does anyone think it's fall yet? I mean, my mother said the high was going to be 81, so me, I dressed for like summer- and I was FREZZIN'!! So then as I shiver my way from third period to fourth, I feel the sun :). Now as the day goes on I am getting warmer- and it feels springy now. Because it feels so spring-y it doesn't make me think to hurry on my holiday knitting until.... I looked in my new Knit.1 magezine and saw that at like Nov.2 or something, it says only 40 days until X-mas morning! So I panicked. :0 I have offically finished the blue/sliver hmm hmm... and now working on the lengthwise browns scarf. I must say that knitting lengthwise is exciting. I keep holding it up to see what it looks like and if I did a good length. The pattern I have created is turning out ok too. I pictured it a little different, but I only have so much yarn.. :) Well, when I finished the Grown-up bonnet- did I mention that? well, if you want to go and see it- just go up to Bloomin' Yarns and look ask for the lush item just knitted for the shop :) lol. But, after I finished the Grown-up bonnet, I got lots of yarn for the Y.G. boys hats. 3 different colors- gray- blue- and blue/gray mixture- all of the cascade 220. I think those are my favorite- mostly cuz they are nice and colorful, but also because I like making hats and scarves that match and those are perfect for it. I have also picked up quiet a challenge project. A shawl that just keeps increasing and increasing. The yarn for the pattern is just soo pretty, the color I love! And it is a nice feeling yarn too. I'm making it for my cousin- she likes purple and I think a fellow knitter will appreciate the work I put into it.

Well, with school and musical and work.... hmmm.... school 1st, tomorrow is mole day. How exciting is that??? They want us to wake up at like 4 to get there by 5:30 and celebrate at 6:02. cuz the equation of the day is like 6.02 x 10 to the 23rd power. Well, I am NOT waking up that early- I'm just gunna wear the t-shirt and make a cookie cake. :) For musical- not much is happening for me... I'm an adult and basically I just sing kids... It kind of feels like a combo of Hello Dolly/ Wonderful Town to me. A nice production but no fun unless you have a part. Then work- I have the both weekend days again. I don't like when that happens. I mean I already have to wake up early on weekends as well as weekdays, so making me work until 10:30 is just a little tiring. ... At least I get paid :) til next time ;) <<33

no camera yet... just blue books

blue books- yup. If you are a Junior in High School, apparently all your life is is writing these blue books and their outlines. I mean, honestly- we do have lives, and it would be a lot less stressful if they just gave us a finale instead of making us write 4 outlines, memorize them and only write one, in one hour. Does anyone find the base of this just exhausting and feeling like you should be taking notes?? Well, you probably should be, anything I say can and will be used as evidence in your outlines. Don't forget, you must make 2- one for me and one for you. Again, too much to handle? Too bad, so sad- you have to deal with it along with your lab days and your Chem teacher who gives a test on the same day. Yup- every teacher believes that you are only taking that class and that you only devote your time to that class. Well guess what crazy ladies! WE DON'T!! AHHH!!!!!

OK- now that I have ranted out the gist of this year to come, on to my knitting!! :) I have almost finished that adorable Grown-Up Bonnet Scarf thing ma-gig.. lol, I just want to go in to the shop and have them tell me how they want me to sew it. I have a pretty advanced sewing machine- thanks aunt Lynn!! <<33 - so I do have options for them. I have also been busily working on my mothers... hmm hmm... lol and just little things like the baby hat- all finished- and the other blue hat- finished in math class one Friday... I'm almost done with my skinny little pink scarf from the lion wool- <<33. OHHH~ IF ANYONE HAS ANY PURPLE FANCY FUR- ANY EXTRA OR SEES ANY IN A STORE- PLZ LET ME KNOW ASAP and maybe, May I Have It?!?? I'm always kind and you may get cookies or brownies for your kind doing. :) Thank you very much- now I must be getting back to my CRAzY blue Book Outlines

La la la la**

Yes, that's right- singing auditions are tomorrow. Didn't do that well on the dance auditions, so I hope the singing goes a little better. Alivia, the choreographer, knows I can dance, I just need time to practice it. The acting went well- I thought. Oh yeah, by the way, I'M IN A FIGHT CLUB MOVIE!! My name is Angelina Hamilton, and my line is "Ew." Is anyone super stoked? I get a dvd and everything when it's done! One thing is, I don't know when I'm supposed to go back.. haha- well, til then I'll be dancing and working on stupid blue books, while busing tables. Sounds fun right?? Well guess what makes it very fun- I'm knitting in between those. Yeah, that's about the only relaxing time I get now a days. So my 2 hours of lunch tomorrow will include a 20 minute knitting session, 20 minute singing and memorizing intensive session, with 20 minute eating, then and hour of teaching Emily a dance so she can do well on her audition. Someone has to do well- and I like teaching dances, so it'll be fun. While at rehearsal, I will ask a certain someone to go to my Homecoming with!! Yeah, no one asked me -gasp- so I will ask someone I know I'll have fun with. So, that's another fun/kind of relaxing night... Well, I'll have fun. OH! Sorry I missed tonight- had the Homecoming game- I still don't know if we won cuz when I left, it was tied... Do they go into overtime?? OH, and the PENS lost!!!???? WTF!? sorry, but we are a good team! There's no reason that they should've lost. (I didn't watch, but I know how we play, and we should be able to win games) So, now that I have gotten everything covered, I will go enjoy the next half hour of knitting then try to get some sleep. AND! finally, I might get a digital camera next Thursday! YAY!
