2 days in a row! It’s a miracle!

Tuesday, April 17, 2007 at 9:00 pm (General ramblings)

  • I’m listening to: M2M
  • Current mood: Relaxed
  • Important dates: Tomorrow we’ll see who goes home on American Idol!

Well, hello! It’s a revolution, isn’t it? I’m actually writing entries again!

Not much has changed since yesterday, obviously. I still want a guide dog. I still want HP 7 to come out. So to sum it all up, I still want it to be summer!

Well, Jordin was by far my favorite on A.I. tonight. She rocked the song’s socks off, which is saying something, as it was country. People don’t often rock in country. They… country in country. Wow, that probably made no sense. But she was great, OK? Just take my word for it. I actually agreed with everything Simon said about the contestants tonight, which is kind of surprising. Do I flatter myself when I say I don’t think I’m as mean as he is?

Anyway, just thought I’d make up for my laziness of the past… ever… and try to write at least 3 times a week. I know… quite a tall order for me, but I’ll try! By the way, I’ve raised just under $500 for the NFB so far! If any of the wonderful people who donated on my behalf are reading this, I present you with an E-chocolate bar!

On a much more serious note, here’s my parting thought: MY HEART GOES OUT TO VIRGINIA. (My sister’s friend knows people who go there.)

A survey!

Monday, April 16, 2007 at 5:03 pm (General ramblings)

  • I’m listening to: The original American Idol, Kelly Clarkson!
  • Current mood: Hungry
  • Important dates: I dunno

Hi again! I have decided that in compensation for not updating in so long, I shall do 2 entries in one day. Well, technically this is just a survey I pirated off of MySpace, but I thought it was funny. Basically, you put your music library on shuffle and write the song titles as answers to the questions. Here are my extremely scientific findings!<

  • How are you feeling today? “When I Get There,” Dream
  • Will you get far in life? “How Can I Be Down?”, Toya (Depending on the way you interpret this, it could be a good thing…)
  • How do your friends see you? “Release Me,” Blaque (OK, y’all, we need to have a talk…)
  • Will you get married? “What Hurts the Most,” Rascal Flatts (Somehow that doesn’t sound promising…)
  • What is your best friend’s theme song? A medley of songs from Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen (Hahahahaa, wonder who this describes? *cough*Mary*cough*)
  • What is the story of your life? “Feelin’ the Same Way,” Norah Jones
  • What was high school like? “You Don’t Mean Anything,” Simple Plan (Haha, too true)
  • How can you get ahead in life? “Fun Fun Fun,” The Beach Boys (Yes! I’m liking this!)
  • What is the best thing about your friends? “The Strong Badia National Anthem,” Strong Bad (Ummmmm…)
  • What is in store for this weekend? “Me Vs. the World,” Halo Friendlies (Ooh, that doesn’t sound too cool…)
  • To describe your grandparents? “I See Right Through To You,” DJ Encore
  • How is your life going? “I Love Life,” Melissa Lefton (That, my friend, is awesome.)
  • What song will they play at your funeral? “Castles In the Air,” B*Witched (Hey, it’s pretty!)
  • How does the world see you? “Before Me and You,” SHeDaisy
  • Will you have a happy life? “Stuck,” Stacie Orrico (Um, do I want to know what that means?)
  • What do your friends really think of you? “This Is How I Feel,” Earth, Wind and Fire (Well, that doesn’t tell me much.)
  • Do people secretly lust after you? “Where Are You,” Natalie
  • How can I make myself happy? “Goin’ Downtown,” Dreamgirls Soundtrack (Well, I’ll be on the bus shortly, then!)
  • What should you do with your life? “Can’t Stop,” Hanson
  • Will you ever have children? “Life Is Wonderful,” Jason Mraz

Well, there you go. See ya later!

Guess what? I’m not dead: Part II!

Monday, April 16, 2007 at 1:13 pm (Happenings in KD's life)

  • I’m listening to: The voices in my head
  • Current mood: Well-rested for once!
  • Important dates: Tuesday, May 1 is when Dreamgirls comes out on DVD!

Well, my poor, dear reader(s), I regret to inform you that it has happened again. I have once more let my life become so packed with other stuff, I have neglected this diary for nearly 2 months! I have officially broken all previously-held records with this long stretch between entries.

Well. So much has happened to me, I hardly know where to start. Hmmmmmm… I believe another of my famous lists is in order!

  1. I am now 5 weeks away from the end of the semester! And as much as I love the college life, I have a very exciting summer ahead of me, so I cannot wait for it to end. Now I shall make a sublist detailing the events!
    • A. Seeing my bestest friends after months and months of being apart!
    • B. My nineteenth birthday!
    • C. The release of Kelly’s sophomore album, which I’ve been eagerly anticipating for over a year!
    • D. The NFB National Convention, which includes the March for Independence! (If you want more info on that, click here.)
    • E. My almost-definite trip to New Jersey for guide dog training!
    • F. And of course, the release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, which I’ve been eagerly anticipating since… well, I don’t even remember. Now back to the regular list.
  2. My trip to Baltimore, which I told you about in my entry from millennia ago, was SOOO much fun! Also, traveling there by plane with Karen was exciting! It was our first time going such a long distance without adults, and we felt very special. It also gave me a vindictive sense of pleasure that I managed alone in an airport, despite the fact that certain members of my family believed I couldn’t.
  3. I’ve sent my last medical form to The Seeing Eye, so now all they need to do is look over it, and if they approve, I’m in! This is, without a doubt, the most eagerly-anticipated event in my whole life!
  4. I’ve registered for classes next fall, and am starting German and piano lessons! Yay!
  5. I recently purchased the new deluxe edition of Beyoncé’s latest CD, and it has Spanish tracks on it! As can be imagined, this is pure, undiluted excitement for a Beyoncé fanatic/modern languages major.

OK! So now that you have the list of glorious events that have happened in KD’s life, I must dash. I need to get ready for choir, which is in 30 minutes. I will reeeeeeally try to update much sooner this time… Parting thought: QUÉ SABES TU DE MÍ? NO ME HAGAS REÍR! (Anyone have doubts about where that’s from? I thought not.)
