Drinks on the House
So, 2 AP exams done, final round of the Cox Foundation scholarship, nominated for Best Supporting Male Actor. This has been a pretty awesome week. Understatement. The show also got nomianted for Dance, Singing, and Acting Ensemble. Jimmy got nominated for Best Lead Male Actor and Frankie got nomianted got nomianted for Best Featured Male Actor. Pretty excited. Seven nominations is a lot, I think. I think I'm not going to write an acceptance speech because it's win-win that way: if I don't get nominated then I didn't get my hopes up or appear arrogant by writing a speech, if i do win then I get to make a speech up on the spot, which seems like a great idea .
Today is jazz band. The end of the year jazz concert is coming up. That should be pretty cool. I haven't practiced my parts in a very, very long time, which is unfortunate since I've always played the piano part from memory and it might not be in my fingers anymore. I don't even remember where the music is. Hopefully, I'll get a chance to bang it out a couple of times before we start rehearsal tonight.
I've studied so much for Bio I think I might actually get a decent grade on the exam. If I get a 4 or a 5 it's worth ten credits next year. That'd be a nice boost to the credit total. I think it all counts as elective credit, though, which is unfortunate, but, well, whatever. It's not like I plan on having a problem getting enough credits considering I want to take everything.
Man, I feel like a major hypocrite. I think you can go back a few months in my entries and see me specifically write that I don't care about Stars of Tomorrow. I probably also said that I'll say I'm a hypocrite if I get nominated, so at least I'm consistent in that. I'm pretty sure I'm more excited about the show getting nominated than getting nominated myself. Although, both things are pretty sweet.
English exam today was pretty easy. I was trying to remember if I thought I did good on these exams at the end of them last year. I honestly can't remember. I just remember not being terribly suprised when I got the grade report. Well, maybe I was about physics. Honestly, I can't remember.
I've been reading a book on Adult ADD. People always tell me that I probably have ADD, and, even though I know that ADD has been a fad lately, I thought I'd check it out. Based on the book, anyway, I really don't think I have it. As a matter of fact, I don't think most of the people who tell me I have ADD know anything about the symptoms or characteristics of one who is afflicted. The "outbursts" that I tend to make are very rarely spontaneous and I've never felt like I had to make one. I usually think of something and wait for a good opportunity to say it. It's not really impulsive, I don't think. I guess it's hard to judge for yourself. Maybe I need to work on discipline a little bit, but I don't think it's chemical in origin.

Tim,
congratulations on the nominations for the show and for the your performance. Also if y'all got nominated for any sort of lighting awards, even better. Lighting is the best!
I want to share a little story with you that I heard today at lunch. My professor's daughter was contacted by a women claiming to be her father's lost half-sister. She wasn't supposed to tell the professor, but let it slip anyhow. He got very excited about this idea that he might have another sister that he didn't know about so he phoned his older brother to share the news. The older brother was underwhelmed. Later, the profesor and his wife went to see this older brother and the half-sister came up again. His response, "What do I care if I MIGHT have a HALF-sister? I've already got a whole brother and I don't care about him!"
Love,
Matt
haHA...Cox foundation.
Secondly- ummm..i already told you the italian word for vegetable garden is 'orto'. Damn i thought i had something halfway usefull to say. Oh hell. You're a good friend. Have i told you that lately? It merits repeating. I don't know how to spell merits..none of the ways look correct. Either way you should know that you are loved enough for me not to teabag you.
Well, unless you contend that all human emotion and thought it chemical in origin.
Which it is.
