2:27 pm	I am getting old!!!!!!!!! During lunch I got a sandwich for Wawa and ate it in the park with nicole. The sun was shinning, the birds where chIrping, beautiful people where laying around half naked...it was fantastic. Of course Nicole and I where complaining about how awful our lives are. We began discussing past loves, and I of course brought up "the doctor". The only boy that I have ever been infatuated with, and still think about. He was so intelligent, hot, and I loved hanging out with him. Now that I have returned to work, I searched for him on friendster. Low and behold he has an active account, living in San Diego, in a relationship, so of course now I can't stop thinking about him. I AM SUCH A MESS!!!!!!!!! (2 Comments |Comment on this)

9:18 am	OKAY... Breath in....... and out!!! My jeep was still there, thank god. I am making a point never to leave the top down during the week again. It would be just my luck that I would leave it down and while at work, it pours for like 2 hours and my car will be ruined. That means every Sunday, I must put the top back on, no matter what. So considering I spend my entire day working with numbers and reconcilling bank statements, I would be better able to budget my money...NOT SO MUCH. Last week I got paid 500 bucks from UD, which would have been a nice cushion in my checking account, WOULD HAVE BEEN!. Instead of depositing it in the bank, I cashed the check and blew 500 bucks in 5 day. WHO DOES THAT?? Its one thing to go out and purposly spend money on yourself for clothes or something, but to blow $500 bucks on ramdon shit. And now I looked in my bank account and I am in worse shape then I was last week. It just shows me that as much as I pretend to be an adult, I am still a little kids when it comes to important stuff like money, oh well, hopefully I figure this out in the near future. I am so excited for Wildwood. I am still trying to get off from work on Friday, so that I can drive down Thursday after work and have a maxed out Thursday night. For the first time in my BW history, I just as nervous about my WW performace as I am about UD's. Hopefully the alcohol will help cure that!!!

9:25 am	Hello Friends, It has been quite a while. Its funny how my last posting two months ago is not much different then the one I am about to post. Quick Update: BW: Went to dayton; didn't make finals; was kind of over it; got a bunch of compliments at the bar; enjoyed the rest of world class; excitied for WW;can't wait to see everyone; i truly love the people I march with but at the same time looking forward to the season being over. UD: Finished the show; spent last week cleaning it; they did well at the HH show; looks like they are in good shape for the next couple of weekends; rewrote the ending last night; now it is more effective and even more DRAMA (which I love); Looking forward to spending time with the kids in WW and ending the season on a high note. Work: It's work, nothing new and exciting to report, obviously its not busy considering I am spendng the first half hour writing in my live journal. Its absolutly beautiful outside so I can't wait until lunch so I can sit in rittenhouse and eat my lunch and read. On a different topic, I didn't put the top up on my Jeep and parked it in ^(th street. I hope it is going to be okay!!!!!! Current Mood: content (1 Comment |Comment on this)

10:27 am	Hump Day So i went over Joey's house last night to discuss the show. After looking at the recap, I am not as upset as I was on Sunday. One of the effect judges and the ensemble judge totally got the program and loved it. Gave us number that I felt where fair, especially considering the show is not finished. The equipment judge and the other effect judge totally missed the boat. THese where why the number where so low. I am hoping that onCe we finish the program, and make the Fixes that I need to make, all will be corrected. Next year I am going to hire Jeff Namian. I need to get more exposure to the staging process. I mean I have some but it is already starting to look the same. I ordered a video about how to stage a ballet, I am hoping this will also give me some incite into the whole process. I am also realizing that I need I want to go back to school. Although accounting gives me a good background in business, and has given me a good understanding of numbers, I don't think I can spend the rest of my life working with just numbers. I find myself truely enjoying about 30min of what I do everyday. I guess it is a lot to expect that I love every second of what I do, but to only enjoy only 2.5 hours a week is not nearly enough for me. I mean, so far, if I really like what I am doing, I work really hard at and become pretty good at it. Having to spend my life working with numbers all day would drive me insane. The only problem is the practical side of me says, Christopher, this will allow you to move upward anywhere you go. Becoming a CFO is a much more lucrative position then spending my life staging color guard, but I guess the question is whether I would enjoy one more then another, or if one is more rewarding then the other. Who knows? I guess I also have to keep in mind that I am only 22. I don't need to decide the rest of my life in the next couple months. I am wicked excited for this weekend. Can't wait to see all of the Cadets Girls and Curls. Hope BW has a good show. NOTE TO SELF: REMEMBER TO EMAIL THE COLOR GUARD THE ROOM ASSIGNMENTS.

10:00 am	Monday Morning (well actually Tuesday) I had requested Monday off so that I could have a rehearsal day with Upper Darby but the auditors where going to be here so I couldn't take off, so I cancelled rehearsal. I got home Sunday to find out that I was allowed to take the day off, so I slept the entire day, ate general szo and watched color guard videos in order to inspire me for the end of UD's show. Joe called me this morning and asked me how I feel about a unitard. I said as long as my mid-section is covered I wouldn't mind. Then he said the top is going to be see through sheer. Translation: Girl you better stop eating those Krispy Kreams and get onto the treadmill. I am very excited though. All of the dance stuff he wrote looks really cool. Plus the floor looks wicked cute. We painted it Saturday night, well actually Sunday morning. I started painting it but realized I was on the verge of telling a few people off so I decided to walk away and talk to Lindsey and Katie about Abington's show. I kinda feel bad for them. I know what it is like to be thrust into staging a program and it can be a difficult task, especially if it is your first time. They will figure it out. It just takes time. Saturday we performed at Norristown. Not such a cute show. There where a few drops and I danced like a midget with one foot. Considering most of the choreography I was making up on the spot during rehearsal. That night I get all freaked out and my pirettes where "less then amazing, but still just as tiring". Hopefully this weekend will be alot better. I also realized that there are a lot of cute boys in TIA this year. I definitly realized that I need a husband. I have had no time to designate to my personal life. After this season is over I am going try and expand my circle of friends. I ran for like 30 min on the treadmill last night. I hope I can motivate myself to run a few times a week. I definitly need to lose a few around the waste. Its not cute. Goals for the week: 1. Try to Finish UD's Show 2. Run 2 or 3 more time 3. Get to the gym once this week 4. Get a cute outfit for this weekend 5. Work on my extension so that my leaps are better on Saturday. (Comment on this)

11:29 am	I Can't wail til summer I think I have a personal connection to the sun. On days that the sun is out, there is a sense of joy about everything I do. whether is it working in an office all day, or teaching high school kids in a gym. If it is sunny, then all is good with the world. I had UD last night. It went well. I watched the first part of ramblin' man. I could totally see what Carie was talking about. By adding just 3 more flags, the feature was just so much more effective. Althought I can never see what anything looks like becuase I am always in the stupid auxillary gym. Things just make so much more sense to me when I can see if from up top. I just want to learn how to design a good program from a staging standpoint. I want to stage a really good show. To hell with the equipment work, costume, flag, props etc. I just want to stage a good program and get kids to dance well. That is what I think so many color guards lack, staging that is great for its own right and is not reliant on the equipment work to make it effective, and kids who really can dance, not just teams that know how to point their feet and execuate a tour-jete, but a team that can take a piece of well written choreography and dance the crap out of it. If I can do that then my life will be complete, well then on to something easier like world peace. Current Mood: cheerful (Comment on this)

1:54 pm	First Entry So I am officially a live journal user!! Now I can write tons of personal things about myself so that the rest of the world can read about it on the internet! Awsome!! Still recoveing from pnemonia. Went to take a nap at 7pm last night and didn't get out of bed until 7:45 this morning. I have Upper Darby today. Hopefully we will finish the show, or get pretty damn close. After they did so poorly against Bensalm on Saturday, I was totally at a loss. After speaking to carie and jason I didn't know what to do. Do I stop writing the show? Hire someone else to come in and stage it? I feel like I don't know what I am doing and putting UD in a shitty place. I mean the kids spin and dance so well. Well at least thats what I think, the judges definitly feel differently about that. I guess I will jsut finish the show, and go from there. If I get the program finished, then I can sit back and take a good look at what work, what doesn't, whats effective, what isn't, why certain things are getting credit and why other things suck. Then in like 2 weeks I can plan out the changes and make sure they are what I want to see. ST GOAL #1: GET THE SHOW DONE Work is definitly slowing down. The end of year close is over, which I made it through even with pnemonia. I just have a bunch of loose ends that I have to wrap up. Had McDonalds for lunch, sat in rittenhouse square and at lunch with Nicole. Realized that I am pale as shit and that I need to loose 20lbs by by may. ST GOAL #2#: LOOK AS CUTE AS THE JEEP. I also realized that theree is this huge part of me that wants to be successful as something, anything, and not jsut average at a lot of things. LT GOAL #1: BECOME SUCCESSFUL AT SOMETHING-more to come on this later. Looking forward to getting about of work, and going to UD Current Mood: complacent Current Music: UD Show soundtrack (1 Comment |Comment on this)
