Wailing Child

"She lay still now, her face bathed in tears. Exhaustion of body had entirely subdued her spirit: our fiery Catherine was no better than a wailing child."
"Oh, I'm burning! I wish I were out of doors! I wish I were a girl again, half savage and hardy, and free...and laughing at injuries, not maddening under them! Why am I so changed? why does my blood rush into a hell of tumult at a few words? I'm sure I should be myself were I once among the heather on those hills."
                                                                       -Wuthering Heights

Today never happened before. Each day sends something different our way even though our routine schedules. These past two weeks allowed me to enjoy myself, but at the same time made me feel really low. I guess that what these days brought me. At least I know others have been in the same position as I am. 


I hope in 55 years my life won't be forgettable wherever I'm going and wherever I go out.

"We're not spirited my ass." -Julie Dao

I feel like we had to go through an abortion with the dance. All the lovin' and preparing was made for the day we went to labor and now all that hard work has gone to waste. What is up with me and all this labor talk all day today? I think it has to do with the birth of Jim and Pam's daughter. I mean, I talked to Mr. Biggs about breast feeding and the tearing of the vagina and now I'm making an analogy with abortion and the spring dance? I am so weird. At least I had a great time going all out for this spirit week.


Monday March 1, 2010--Dr. Seuss Day


Tuesday March 2, 2010--Disney Day



Wednesday March 3, 2010--'90s Day

Cathy is the best '90s girl ever. Admit it, we all know you had the middle part too.


Thursday March 4, 2010--Fairy Tale Day

 

I felt like a mix of Cinderella/the fairy godmother due to the color of my dress, which I got from being in a wedding years ago. This was also the day Julie and I spent the entire day working on The Girls' Room's new decorations. We will end up victorious in the war against VNC Headquarters.

The quote in my planner for this week deals with direction, and it is something I need to learn.

Texting Proposal

The following is the proposal I am writing to my parents in attempt to get texting. I don’t even care if it’s unlimited, I just want to get something. Would you care to add any suggestions?

Texting Proposal
  1. Nobody talks on the phone anymore. 
  2. Instead of initiating a long phone conversation, a text can be used for a quick, to-the-point answer.
  3. When I need to call to ask about a homework assignment texts are faster since the assignment is typed on the phone and sent and one does not need to take time to read the assignment for the other person to write down. You can view the assignment on your phone through the text.
  4. Like number 3, driving directions or people’s addresses can be sent through text in a quick manner.
  5. Mass Texting allows for communication among multiple people without disrupting their time since they may choose to reply immediately or when one has time. It is also a great way to send reminders to others or send event schedules. This is especially great for Core Team, ASB, and other groups.
  6. Texting is convenient since most people will look that their text messages but are too lazy to check their voice mail. They can also wait to view texts on their own time and you will not disrupt them or take time to create a well-thought out answer.
  7. Showers will be shorter because I would want to see my texts.
  8. Texting is great when someone is in a noisy area and talking on the phone would be frustrating due to yelling and the repeating of “What? Can you say that again?” Or, in the opposite case, while in public one does not have to talk loudly into a phone (like in stores or the library).
  9. In case of an emergency they are useful since they are quiet. (For example, a kidnapping)
  10.  Texting would result in talking less on the phone. We wouldn’t need unlimited minutes for talking and it would even out on the bill.
Extra Notes
1. Even Tiffany and Sophie have text! (My younger cousins)
2. My driving instructor told me to text him whether I passed the driving test or not and I couldn’t.
3. For projects (like my Spanish video project) I was out of the loop on decisions that were made over text.
4. I should get it for my 18th birthday! =)

Mary and Zach Hight really know their fashion. They sported this lovely jacket that inspired Marc Jacobs. What more could they come up with?

He Ate My Heart

He ate my heart
He a-a-ate my heart
 
In physiology today we dissected a pig's heart! Lori was the perfect partner since we both like to go crazy and cut, poke, and stab everything up. We even made matching rings from (what we think) is the aorta. We haven't really been paying attention lately.

 
Towards the end of the period McDreamy and I (McSteamy) took photos in lab coats. Don't we look like hot seductive doctors?


Btw Zach, look what I found on my computer:

I think we should win......

Props to Kevin Tran for making an amazing video!
Be sure to look for my one word: "I." =]

Julie Tracy

After a short Saturday work day and some time driving around on my own, it was lovely Simone Bagalso’s time. She looked so gorgeous in all of the outfits and photos she was in. I loved her yellow sunflower theme and how she incorporated everything with it from the centerpieces, the invitations, to her third outfit.


After the loveliness came the craziness, or at least, that’s what Mr. J. told me this morning. I haven’t really danced since homecoming and it was a workout! ha, it’s nice to feel those abs and thighs a working!


I love how almost every photo I use to blog about comes from Julie's flickr, which reminds me about yesterday. I always enjoy Core Team meetings, and the fact that Pat laughs at everything just makes things better. Oh, and I absolutely love his stories. Stephanie, Zach, Joe, Angellyne, Andrew, and I could not stop laughing when we found out the name of Pat's 5th-6th grade girlfriend has Julie Tracy as a name! That's right, Julie Tracy.
