O sweet spontaneous
earth how often have
the
doting

fingers of
prurient philosophers pinched
and
poked
thee
, has the naughty thumb
of science prodded
thy

beauty . how
often have religions taken
thee upon their scraggly knees
squeezing and

buffeting thee that thou mightest conceive
gods

(but

true

to the incomparable
couch of death thy
rhythmic
lover

thou answerest

them only with

spring)

so I figured that since it's been about 7 years since my last post, it'd be great if I updated again, huh? sorry guys, I'm just not great at keeping a journal. deal. actually, I bet none of you read it anymore. just as well.

the spring semester is about to start, and I think I'm looking forward to it. I just found out I'm having lessons with a guy, which is cool. never had a male teacher before, we'll see how it goes. but the thing is...he has a ton of musical theatre majors in his studio...and I'll have to sing for them in rep classes. I'm already scared. I saw three of them in Urinetown last semester, and they were really good. I hope they're really nice too. and don't laugh when they find out I want to do mt too. I'm really excited to take an acting class too. after I realized I obviously wasn't cut out to be a musical theatre major, I decided to do a theatre minor instead. hopefully I can do a concentration in acting. that'd be really great. I still need to figure out my schedule, because once again, I'm behind the ball. I didn't get around to talking to anyone before break about what classes I should take, so I have to do all that conferencing and rearranging in the first few days of classes. blah. and I need to find a way to sell some of my books from last semester. I heard about this place called bellhousebooks.com, and they're supposed to give you really good prices (more than that shitty buyback thing the bookstore has), and they'll come to your room to pick them up and stuff, so you don't have to worry about any of that. aaand I need a job. I am poor. I made a little money over break babysitting, and grammie decided I needed some (thank goodness), but other than that I've not earned a dime. it also doesn't help that everything in ithaca is ridiculously overpriced and over taxed. I don't think I want to live in new york when I grow up.
in other recent news, my roommate from last semester moved out, and my ra said that unless somebody can't get along with their roommate now, nobody else will be moving in with me. booyah. I'm excited about having a room to myself, but it looks really empty, and I think I might get lonely sometimes. I'll deal. at least now I don't have to worry about not bothering her and stuff. I need some posters or pictures or something with which to decorate. my room is really lame right now.

I think I was going to write a lot more, but then I got sidetracked and now I don't remember it. maybe I'll finish later.

greeneyelady826: i'm gonna go buy the mac and cheese i can microwave
Blind Kade: ok
greeneyelady826: cause i really want it
Blind Kade: why have you been craving it for so long?
greeneyelady826: i don't know
greeneyelady826: but i need it or i will die
Blind Kade: GO GET IT RIGHT NOW
greeneyelady826: i love you
Blind Kade: NO, DON'T SEND THAT MESSAGE
Blind Kade: GO GET IT

p.s., it'd be better if i could italicize adn change font sizes, but i'm not that livejournal savvy

it has been one whole year since i came home from brazil.
it feels odd to say that. it seems like it's been more than just one year. i've been thinking a lot lately about brazil and everyone there. i was looking through pictures on my computer and i found a folder full of ones from brazil, and there were some movie clips from the farewell party the youth group had for me, and i cried when i watched them. i still have guarana and pào de queijo in the basement. i miss them. i'm going to try to keep in touch with them more. starting now.

have love

maybe i should update sometime in this century?

2006-07-16T01:12:38Z

so, despite the busy hecticness of this summer, not much has been going on/happened. i've mostly been working, which isn't the best thing in the world, but i guess i'd better get used to it. ...i really haven't much to say except that you should all save august 19th for a party at my house. it'll be kind of a graduation/birthday sendoff thing. you should come hang out and have a good time.

maybe when i think of something to say i'll post again

have love

So it's been a while since i last posted. i guess it's time for an update.
I had my last class today. It feels really good to be done, but it doesn't seem like graduation is so close. I'm just glad to not have to do anything anymore. I guess there's really not much going on. class trip is tomorrow. we're going to funtown, which isn't the best place, but it'll be fun anyway. i need to find music to return so i don't have a bill. i also need to find a job. any suggestions? my nose has been runny/stuffy for a few days. it can stop any time now. i'm pretty bored, and there's not much more to say. maybe if i think of something i'll add it later. i think i'll go watch a movie or take a nap or something.

love

thursday night ab workout:
puking

(I'm better-ish now)

oh boy

2006-04-19T19:43:28Z

today is fabulous. it is beautiful out even though it's windy, and i got my hair cut, and oh by the way, I GOT INTO ITHACA! I am more than a little excited about that. If I decide to go there, it would be as an undeclared major, but i think i can audition for music/drama programs for the second semester. or maybe it's just the second year? i'll have to double check about that. But at least i got accepted.
my hair is short now. i think it's a little shorter than i wanted, but i'm not really worried because my hair grows fast. but i have to be careful not to get it cut too short, because my hair's thick enough that it would just poof, and not look that great. (it's not that short; about to my shoulders)
i'm gonna go find something to do.

in Just-
spring when the world is mud-
luscious the little
lame balloonman

whistles far and wee

and eddieandbill come
running from marbles and
piracies and it's
spring

when the world is puddle-wonderful

the queer
old balloonman whistles
far and wee
and bettyandisbel come dancing

from hop-scotch and jump-rope and

it's
spring
and
the

goat-footed

balloonMan whistles
far
and
wee

an update? what's that?

2006-03-08T21:24:17Z

so i actually have more than 10 minutes of time that isn't taken up with rehearsals today. and even though i love rehearsals, it is a nice change. I told myself i wouldn't procrastinate today. so far it's not happening.

one acts this weekend! i'm a little excited, because it's the first time i've done it. i've heard lots of good things about the festival though, and i'm looking forward to it. i think we'll do okay. our play isn't particularly outstanding, but it's not bad. it's actually pulling together. we're finally getting all our costume pieces and people know their lines and cues (side note: my favorite part of winter carnival was when mrs. a had the audacity to tell me- right before i had to perform in karaoke, no less- that i was the only person who didn't know my lines. it was really great. but i'm not bitter.) and i think friday and saturday will be fun.

into the woods next weekend! and the weekend after that! everyone should come see it. let me know if you want more info. it'll be wicked good. the set is incredible. the costumes are fabulous. the actors are even better. i'm really glad i got involved with mcp. it's nice to be able to work with a group of people outside of and separate from school. not that i don't love you all, but change is good. i kind of feel like the odd man out though. they all seem to have worked with at least some of the cast before, and they know each other, and i don't. so sometimes it's a little awkward for me, but i'm getting used to/over it. and i love cumston hall. i'm so glad i can perform there.

this is turning out to be longer than i expected. maybe i'll post more often. ...yeah right. in my spare time?...

it was so warm out today. it smells fresh outside and feels like spring. it makes me happy.

i need to stop procrastinating and accomplish the things i need to so i can do the things i want to.

"Winter is icummen in,
Lhude sing Goddamm,
Raineth drop and staineth slop,
And how the wind doth ramm!
Sing: Goddamm.
Skiddeth bus and sloppeth us,
An ague hath my ham.
Freezeth river, turneth liver
Damn you, sing: Goddamm
Goddamm, Goddamm, 'tis why I am, Goddamm,
So 'gainst the winter's balm.
Sing goddamm, damm, sing Goddamm,
Sing goddamm, sing goddamm, DAMN."

wow this week sucked a lot. it all started monday morning-i should have taken it as a sign. cast list for the King and I was posted, i'm in the chorus. don't ask me why, but i'm less than thrilled about it. not that alli's not going to do great, but it's not what i expected. and not only did i not get the part that i wanted, but they just put me in the chorus. nice to know i'm important (read: I FEEL SHAFTED).so monday pretty much sucked. and it didn't help that appleby took me into a little alcove and was all "i know it's hard, the same thing happened to me when i was in high school, and it'll be okay, just let it all out, grieve for the part". i was doing fairly well at being composed until she said that. so, lucky me, everyone got to walk by me and wonder why i was crying. thanks anyway. then tuesday i didn't get to go to coda, which was no fun. i had to turn in my chem paper late, i don't know how that'll affect my grade, my english paper was late/incomplete, and i still don't have a final draft, i'll have to turn it in on monday. thursday has been my only good day. i had a voice lesson. it was awesome. it's about the only music-related thing that i feel like i'm worth something at. and no, i'm not fishing for compliments. today was okay, had a pep rally that i left early so i could go take my driver's test. failed it. for stupid reasons. and really, i'm okay with it, i'm not totally devastated. my parents on the other hand can't seem to get over it, and they're making it a big deal, and i don't appreciate it. i've had enough disappointment this week, i don't need any more, thanks anyway.
*sigh* i suppose i'll get over it eventually. i just really don't want to be here right now.

had the marching band show last night. it kind of sucked because it was inside, but there wasn't a way around that. we did okay, I think the judges scored low this time. guard scores went up, drumline went down, therefore drum major went down as well. none of us were really happy with the scores other than guard. but the audience liked it and that's the important part. unfortunately, it was a small audience. but i was so excited after, I got 2 airgrams and I got to see my EL boys. well, EL and Ithaca. that made me happy.
states are really going to suck this year, because nobody's had the chance to perform outside and be judged outside enough. I am less than thrilled about that.
district II auditions tomorrow. i think I"m pretty well prepared for the vocal one, and for the first time ever, i'm kind of...apprehensive about my horn audition. i haven't been practicing enough because i'm not in band; consequently my tone sucks. hopefully it can at least be decent tomorrow. but it makes me sad that my tone is so bad that i don't even want to listen to myself practice. and that just starts a vicious cycle of not practicing, which is exactly the opposite of what should happen.
i'm starting voice lessons. wicked excited about that, because the lady i'm taking them from is really really good. she lives in brunswick though, so with an hour long lesson and 2 hours each way...it pretty much clobbers an afternoon. but i have every confidence that it will be well worth it.
so i guess that's it for now.
