A lot of random things that have nothing to do with each other. Joy for you.

The entrance to my high school. I kinda wish I was sitting at the picnic table in the circle talking with friends. But yea I'm not so whatever.

The other day, I was talking to this lady in my Spanish class who has a 9 year-old daughter at St. Anthony's. She was telling me how she's in the choir there and how they do Light-The-Way every year. I got really excited and told her how my high school choir did that too. And I miss it. :( I want to sing Christmas carols at Central Market and go caroling and go to D.C. and sing at the White House...
When Arielle starts at NYU we're going to annoy everyone we know during Christmas time by singing every Christmas carol known to man only using soprano and mezzo parts so the songs will sound all botched and incomplete.

So my phone is programmed to whenever any of my family calls it just goes "ring ring" and when anyone else calls it does the "beach" ring. The "beach" ring never makes an appearance. And that makes me sad sometimes cause I know people whose phone always rings. But anyways. It did "beach" ring today. "Beach" ring always frightens me because I never expect it. I assumed it was a) a wrong number or b) that general number that comes up whenever my parents call from the office. But it wasn't either. It was Maggie. And it made me soooooooooooooo happy. She got the "Texas in a Box" box that I sent her for her birthday. And she loved it. And I got happy. And then we proceeded to talk and talk and talk and giggle and giggle and giggle. It was so weird hearing her voice. I haven't heard it in FOREVER and I'm ashamed to say that it was like I forgot what her voice sounded like. Anyways I love when people call me. Even if I don't answer and I just see "1 missed call" and then I click "show" and it displays (name) and I go :).


Today my parents decided that when I go to Austin in September that my brother is going to have to give me the car for the weekend. Which rocks. Unfortunately he doesn't know this yet and he's going to fight it. But he'll lose.

Also my mother has informed me that she, my grandparents, and my Aunt Anna may be invading New York in early December which would make me incredibly happy and giddy with joy to the world. Ross also says he's going to visit sometime too because he has 3 places to stay: with either me, Aaron, or his friend so-and-so whose name I do not recall. I can bet any amount of money that he won't.

And on a closing note, I am 90.02% sure that I'm returning August 30. So start planning that giant "OMG Anna is back yay yay yay" party. Plz. Thnx.

Also I wish it was Christmas. The end.

You have really nice veins.

Apparently I have really nice veins for sticking IVs into.

Things I vaguely remember from Friday:

1. Being put to sleep.
2. Needles injecting my gums with anesthesia.
3. Something being put in my mouth.
4. Waking up.
5. Being put in a wheelchair.
6. Being wheeled out the back way and giddily saying: "Hehehehe you're wheeling me out the back way so I don't scare the other patients, huh? Hehehehe."
7. Almost hitting my head on the car door and saying thank you 100 times to the nurse who wheeled me out (I wanted to make sure she heard me).
8. Discussing IV's with my mom and her telling me how when she had to go into the hospital the time she miscarried, they couldn't find a vein. And then I asked her how many months she was when she lost him and she told me and I started crying. Like balling and apologizing and telling her how sorry I was that that happened to her. And then I don't remember the rest of the car ride.

I came home and watched Season 1 of "The Office" then passed out. Then watched "Gilmore Girls" then passed out. Then watched "Mean Girls" then passed out and so on and so forth.

I still feel shitty.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

The other night I was talking to my mom about friendship and my past friends. And she made the point to say how I've gone through a lot of friends. And then I got really depressed. It made me question my ability to be a good friend and made me think that there was something wrong with me. Boo.

And also. DVDs and DVD players have this great little function called "stop". There's also a thing called a "pause" button. And the point of these buttons is so you can stop the movie and come back to it ANYTIME you want. So if let's say someone invites you to get a hamburger and hang out with them for just like 30 minutes to an hour top, you can stop the movie. And then when we're done, you can go back to watching your precious DVD and we don't have to see each other for another month.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Also my road rage has gotten really bad and today I was unaware of how fast I was going. Bad.

I have to go watch Stella now and go "hahahahahahahahaha"

Cockroaches?

So I went to the allergist today to find out what I'm allergic to (duh). My back was covered in about 55 drops of stuff and then each drop was poked with a needle. I was poked in the back with a needle 55 times. And I only reacted to 4 of the drops. 3 types of trees and cockroaches...I'm allergic to cockroaches. Wtf.


Anyways, on an even more random note, the manager of my parents office = him

Alien machines are going to emerge from the ground and vaporize me.

War of the Worlds. In my backyard.

A storm is looming. I swear if there isn't a huge storm tonight I'm going to be very upset. I mean c'mon. Those are storm clouds. Either that or we're under attack like in War of the Worlds (which I thought was awesome by the way).

There is a lot of neat stuff going on New York. Maggie just signed all her paper stuff for her apartment. Joe is making his DJ debut. Justin & Mike are probably throwing some mad bash. Nick is returning soon. Rebecca has her band with shows and all. I miss my friends. Lame. Laaaaaaaaaaaame.

I'm getting oral surgery in a couple of weeks. And even though it's like a minor procedure or what not (to remove 3 of my embedded wisdom teeth), I'm scared shitless. However, in the words of my mom: "hey, you get to be high and eat pudding all weekend and be waited on by me."

Oh and this is funny. When we were looking at the x-rays with the surgeon and explaining to him what my dentist is trying to do to fill in my gap and what not, he didn't look too convinced/thought my dentist was crazy. Yea. I'm starting to think that too.

Electricity makes me INSANE!

Tonight I saw Cry-Baby for the first time ever. That is the best movie I have ever seen...for what it is. You have to see it to understand. All I have to say is that I really want to believe that that was Johnny Depp singing, even though it totally wasn't. I loved him before but now he is my undying hero.

Shoplifters are beaten and kicked and then turned over to the police.

Band parking only. I love it.

Today I went to one of my absolute favorite places ever: Gruene, TX. It's turned into a huge tourist attraction which is annoying, but I still love it.

The Museum of Art and Music has an Austin City Limits exhibit going on right now. This year marks the 30th anniversary of the festival. The exhibit is of photographs from all 3 decades. It's really neat and the pictures are beautiful. Photography and music. Two of my favorite things combined into one. I love it. This museum visit just made me even more excited for the festival. It's going to rock so hard.

Summer breeze, makes me feel fine...

Pretty. Texas is pretty.

I have a crush on a boy. blah. blah. blah. nothing new.

Is it time for me to move back yet?
