Deren invited me to a party out at some guy's mansion/farm. I'll probably go. I was reviewing my 2007 Mix (I make mix CDs every year of songs that were important to me that year) and it's crazy to think how long ago some of that stuff happened.

I'm not sure if I have plans for new year's yet, Jeff and I were talking about it the other day, but we never decided on anything, and we don't know who's free. That mansion sounds exciting, Irene! We are going to my cousin's house tomorrow for another Christmas celebration, so that should be fun. And I saw Sweeney Todd tonight, and I liked it

Sweeney Todd was pretty badass. They played up the gloomy/macabre side of the story more than the twisted funny side though, and I wish the beggar woman (Todd's wife) had more of a part. But still, it was awesome. Who knew Helena Bohnam Carter could sing?

So, I am back at school, and I'm pretty sure this semester is going to kill me. I'm already counting down the days until summer vacation.

Yesterday my friends and I planned a movie day at the theater. 27 Dresses- sorta cute, sorta funny. Not a total waste of life but I wouldn't see it again. Cloverfield- Big surprise. It was awesome. I was a little disappointed that you saw the monster thing within 30 minutes of the film because it was scarier when you didn't know what it was, but overall a good movie. Has my vote for best of the day. Juno- Almost made me cry at the end. Cute, sweet, funny.
Anyway, I'm signing up for SAT stuff right now and I'm making my list of top 10 colleges. Scary!

You'll probably get a belated card from me at some point...oops, ruined the surprise. I'll pretend to be surprised. I didn't send out Christmas Cards so I figure I'll wait and just send out Valentine's. My birthday was pretty lame. My mom got all pissed off (it was her bday too) and freaked out and pretty much ruined the whole day...but that's quite common, birthday's normally suck for me. Ali, I wrote you a letter on like Jan 2 and I still haven't sent it. I never go into town during postal hours to get stamps. argh.

Ahhh, I loved Juno! It was so cute, I'm anxiously awaiting its arrival on dvd because I have no money to go see it again. Although, then I guess I'll need money to buy it, damn it. edit: and also, when I was at the theater seeing the movie, this woman sitting behind us was sobbing toward the end, and it was a bit awkward. And good luck with your SAT's and choosing a school! Sorry your birthday wasn't good, Kelli And you will probably be surprised when you get the card because I'm too lazy to go get stamps also, so who knows when that will happen! But I'm very excited about the letter, I do love me some mail.

When i get my card in july I'll be totally surprised! lol. and when you get your letter dated in jan in october you'll be way surprised haha.
my cousin's fucking laptop is annoying me. it keeps randomly deleting what i type and keeps moving the cursor while i'm typing so half my sentence ends up in the middle of another sentence.
i never took the SAT's jcst the ACT's. all schools in michigan accept them. I scored a 23 the first time and didn't bother taking them again...cause that was high enough for pretty much any school i wanteed to go to.

Has anyone seen Saves the Day in concert? And if so, what did you think? They're playing here in April, and I really like them, but I don't know how they'll be live.

They're touring with Armor for sleep in April...and i want to see AFS...so after that show (if I get to go) I would know if they're good haha...but I honestly don't even listen to saves the day...I can't even name one of their songs...if you like them recorded, you'll probably like them live, though.
It's kind of funny...there are bands where I don't really like their recordings, but I like them live (examples: Something Corporate, The Bled, Atreyu) but there aren't really any bands that I like them recorded but not live.... so yeah, I'm sure you'd like Saves The Day live.
Hopefully in the next few days we'll be seeing a couple more houses (if the weather/road conditions ever get better). They're all more expensive than the huge one, but they have more acreage...

We're are going to look at a house for the second time...so mayyybbeee we'll be moving...probably not. We found out some things since the last one that make it seem not as good =( but we'll see.
I think spring needs to start today. I'm so sick of all the snow and cold.

I think spring needs to start today. I'm so sick of all the snow and cold. DON'T SAY THAT because the end of "winter" (if you can call this winter) means the beginning of a hot, hot summer. I'm actually kind of upset that it never got very cold this year. I think it was down to 28 for like, four hours, and that was it.

Well it got BELOW ZERO here! So I'm not disappointed like you are.
We're still looking for houses. Ugh. It's getting frustrating.
There were some really cute clothes on clearance at Charlotte Russe...none of their stuff fits me, but I tried to talk my sister into getting some of them haha...but she didn't like any of it =(
