Computer's home :)

Yay! The computer is home-- it's tough not having it for so long and actually deciding to go through the 121 e-mails i had... put up a lot of pictures somewhere on the internet so i won't lose them. Definately showing phots from now on. It's the only way i still have the results of my Steelers socks- :)

So, I had a birthday recently and here are some pictures :)


Me & Catherine at BUCA! I got free cake cuz it was my birthday ;-)

My beautiful Pudge Babe-


My wonderful boyfriend, Brian, who took me to Eleven for dinner, then Heinz Hall to see A Chorus Line. <3>
Me and my CraZy friends at Sarris- the banana split that couldn't be finished, but yet the bigger one that had the bowl licked clean! We're NUTS!

Saturday- no dance :( /crazy mocha date with B/ work
Sunday- most likely work (am)/gabes? maybe.../wonder where my Spring Break went...

Monday school starts again and then its right on to the Musical rehearsals that take over everyone's life that is in it. It really stinks- I'm in Dance Company and we're required to be it. These rehearsal's aren't just once or twice a week for a little bit. No, we rehearse in class and then there are these 3 hour rehearsals for 2 nights in a row- ON THE SAME NUMBER! Does anyone else think this is a little obnoxious?! Oh oh- wait, every year they have a Saturday rehearsal- 1. Last year they added one more because of the stage and how we needed to practice on the new pieces (it was a revolving stage). This year we have 4!!!!! These are all mandatory and you basically get b!tched at if you're not there, can't be there, or actually hand in a note saying you can't be there. They get mad if you have a life beyond this musical!

Let's just say, I have a life beyond musical, beyond this school- and I just don't want to spend all my time here. I have other things to take care of. Like my studio- we have rehearsals everyday! Every time I have class we work on our pieces for the end of the year Spring Concert- {further details will come as to when and where.. :) }. Anyway, I actually do things at those rehearsals, unlike the ones at school.

We are in 3 numbers. Each Dance Company member is in the song 'Gaston' - 'Be Our Guest' - 'Wolf Chase 1' or 'Wolf Chase 2'. I'm in the first two I mentioned, then Wolf Chase 2- that means that I am in Act I twice and Act II once. And yet I always have to be there for full act runs, and yet we run our numbers in class daily.

Does this make sense to anyone? Why should I waste my time sitting in the auditorium sits waiting for it to be my turn in the middle of the act when the director even says, you girls don't have to dance unless you want to dance it. Why would I go to that kind of rehearsal?!? It's not worth my time. I'm sorry-- I know this might be a lot of complaining, but I'm just not loving it this year. I like being at my studio more. Plan and simple- I'd rather be up and moving than sitting on my bum and doing nothing.

Alright- back to my Spring Break plans. I really want to clean my room obviously from all the cleaning scheduled in that little list up above. I would really like to paint my room, but right now I'm just trying to clean out what I don't need anymore, don't really use anymore, that kind of cleaning.

I want to make room for my new clothes (from all my birthday gift cards- THANK YOU UNCLE BOB & AUNT LYNN! :D )

Ok, hopefully I'll get my computer back soon- I'll keep blogging, even if there's not much to blog about- pictures to come soon too-

Bell rang- that's why I'm wrapping up- hahaha
