Hey...I get to do this again when I get married!

I have kitchen stuff! *bounce*
You guys seriously have to go shopping for plates and flatware and crap. It's a rush. But yeah, I got large and small plates, cute little soup bowls, mix 'n' match glasses, and four settings of flatware that reminds me a little of Whit's. But you can't eat cereal with these forks...the prongs are longer. Might go back for a couple of mugs...
So yeah, I've got that, and my mom gave me this funky can opener and salt and pepper shakers.
And I've picked my color scheme accordingly. Lots of blue and yellow and green with splashes of orange and red. So basically everything but purple. It feels left out... Poor purple...
Whatever.
Mr. Scott also gave me a plant grown from a cutting of the one he's had since JCM. It has heard equal amounts of profanity and profundity. I will call it Aloysius.
:)
I'm such a nerd.

Occupation: bum.

Officially done with high school. Took Helen's exam despite the excessive noise of the underclassmen composing rap about the importance of staying in school. The smell of college is in the air. Woo for dorm assignments!
It looks like I'll be getting my own room (perhaps I'm too quirky for them to match me up with a decent roommate) in the brand new co-res Ruby Hall, located only a short walk from everywhere I would go on a typical day.
So yay and rah and give me my diploma already!

Fin.

Wow. I'm done. Or at least close enough to say I am.
Just have to come back for Helen's exam.
Why am I taking an exam in chorus? Because I missed the Beta Club initiation to take care of two sick people in my house.
Screw it.
So I'm waking up at 10 tomorrow morning to do basic theory and get a good exam grade.
But tonight I ... don't know what I'm gonna do.
Later I shall publish a list of memorable happenings and whatnot.

Later that evening
Friday was the end of the year party during chorus. This means two things: food and speeches.
This year's group was made up of almost one half seniors, so the underclassmen spent plenty of time expressing their gratitude for a great year and our wonderful guidance.
But by the time Kevin was done with his speech, there wasn't a dry eye in the room. We're seriously wondering if we'll be able to get through our songs at graduation without bawling.
Fortunately the jell-o cheered us up a little.

Tierra!

Short post, but there are picture links, so shut up.
Worked until after 4 Thursday in the heat and paint fumes, then spent Friday herding elementary school kids around and sweating, as I started the day off with a high-energy dance set and the air conditioning isn't all that great.

And Saturday was the prom. I went to Sakura with Danny and Becca and entertained them with my ineptitude with chopsticks. But I was sparkly, so whatever.

And Sarah was working that night!

How do you say "flirt" in Spanish?

Lo siento a los pobres quienes tuvieron que tomar el << AP >>.
Fuimos a Los Portales para el almuerzo hoy. Cinco de Mayo.
Enough Spanish. I've been watching my "Phantom of the Opera" DVD since Tuesday. :)
Happiness. Sexy Gerry... *drool*
Hehehe... Much fun at Los Portales. Robbie had just finished the AP English test, so her mind wasn't in Spanish mode. Quincy earned a new nickname: El de la foquita. He wore his anti-seal-clubbing shirt. And Catie got hit on by the waiter. I suggested that we take a fieldtrip every week...and the seniors' last three days.
And we learned a couple of new phrases. One involves mice eating one's tongue. *shudder*
And the other is something we can't say at school. No.
14 days.
