The Book of Duderonimy

8:18pm: ...my first update in exactly 2 months and i deleted it on accident!!!!

7:13pm: I'ma cut you
...chopped it all off today; partially because of marching season. I didnt know i had enough hair, but they lety me donate it to Locks For Love : ] : ] : ] . But it was funny because they couldn't cut off my ponytail with scissors, it was too thick, so they had to shave it off. the inside of the ponytail looked black to me (maybe because it was wet). Tha was basicaly my day, besides school. Alg quiz, outside for PE and band, played with balls in chem, learned of the plague in AP Euro, lunch (miller and i talked about playing Kind of Blue with the combo :-D), Mark and i are partners in spanish, and discussed pride and prejudice in english.


Saxes: sectional tomorrow after school. Bones too.

Um...i think thats it



Peace

9:32pm: ...like an antelope
Tonite i re-lived my past by giong out for a night run. Yesterday i got this feeling to get out and run, so today i decided to actually do it. byt the time i was done, i looked at my watch and saw that i had been running for 33 minutes, which suprised me.

Before that i woke up at 7 and didnt feel tired so i played spome guitar and did some of my AP euro homeowrk. then i went to church came home, and went to sam ash for some bargin shopping. until the end of august you get $30 off purchaces of$60 or more, so i got a guitar side, sop sax thumb pads, 2 boxes of V16 reeds (for $14 total! + a cd!) and a sax stand for my incredibles solo. then to hobby lobby and staples which was next door to get a calculater and glue for chem. aftwewards we went home and i did some more ap euro while talking to Xy and went running.

dad is angry so i gotta go! now isnt a good time to ask about frolfing.

8:38pm: bip bop zop
im def lisening to Mmmmmmmbop right now

4:20pm: Dan B's older brother is an enigma
my entire family decided to not wake me up for church this morning, so i got up @ 10:45ish and moped around for a little while. Then i startedt to read P&P, its not as bad as i expected, but i will get sick of it soon, i calculated that i have to read 40 pages a day to finish by next sunday. then write the essay on monday. (ps could someone fill me in on what the essay is plz? my "polish maid" [aka me] threw it away on accident) Right now i am on page 130, so 204 pages to go...


after reading i went downstairs to write some guitar parts for a r/t song, when i heard some knock knock knocking on my door. It was the tyrpins. i was about to open the door, when i remembered, being the slob that i am, i had no clothes on. well, i had shorts on, but thats not presentable attire, so i quickly ran upstairs and grabbed a robe. we talked it up, but they had to go soon, so i came inside and ate sunflower seeds.

Sorry i have nothing to entertain you with, but i figured i should update more ffrequently.

3:30pm: beer guitars and tall creepy hippie girls (and fakers)
The Trey Anastasio concert was amazing. We took the train (aka treyne) at 4: 28 and got downtown @ about 5:49. The we walked about a half dozen blocks to Jimmy Johns for dinner. then another 6ish blocks to the concert. when we got there a got a trey tshirt with a train on it. its pretty nifty. then we found our seats and listened to a jewish reggee band with rap influence play for an hour, including a 5 minute mouth-drum solo. Then trey's band set up for 15ish minutes, and the came on stage. They played some stuff from Phish! and Oysterhead, but mostly his solo stuff. it was all really good with a ton of energy. And you cant forget all the creepy dances you saw everywhere you looked. Great concert.

We got home about about 1:45 and there was a cellular telephone on the table for me. it's ironic because i wanted one last year (9th) and then i stopped asking for one, and that when they got me one. The number is 224-639-0601. I dont know why all of our phones have really weird area codes...


anyway i really want my schedule! connor has all my teachers from 7th grade. hehe

Yikes, school starts the day after tomorrow. That's gross

Ribfest was intertesting. People could be put in to 1 of 3 catagories. You had your:

1. Hippies
2. Hawaiians
3. Skanky girls


Plus the food was sub par. We did eat at the shitty venue tho. Blue Oyster Cult played the night we were supposed to go (Saturday) and a few country bands played when we went. The rain didn't help.

2:13am: Remember me?!?!
i haven't been here in a very, very long time, and yet i still dont have that much to talk about. Florida was cool, but i dont want to take the time to explain everything. here, i'll do this:

bus (26 hours):went to steak n' shake, mcdonalds, burger king, etc
arrive at hotel at 6 pm. exausted, go to sleep after 9.
day 1: breakfast, orientation, parks. fireworks at magic kingdom. see them at: www.awkwardness.com/dr_cross.edu
day 2: MGM rock n' roller coaster, tower of terror, ate at fucking PIZZA PLANET!! Epcot some a tour in that gianty ball and sweedish ride. all very logical. illumination was sweet. a 4 year old boy died on Mission Space today
day 3: Epcot Test Track and Mission Space Animal Kingdom It's Tough to be a Bug (coolest movie ever) and Dinosaur x 3. then went to see the jazz ensemble play the end of Hunting Wabbits (there was a crowd, okay!) and left for home
bus (25 hours if my calculations are correct) i dunno, did stuff.

after i came home i saw Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants w/ Christy. what a great movie...(Haha, couldn't say that with a straight face). But fo serious, i guess it wasn't that bad.

They're making a Pride and Prejudice movie=no reading the book. :-)

jazz ensemble plays at CHS tomorrow. i have to learn all the music today (shhhh!)

Things completed on the list of things to do this summer: um...0?

9:21pm: yeah! # 9!

You Are the Peacemaker

9 You are emotionally stable and willing to find common ground with others. Your friends and family often look to you to be the mediator when there is conflict. You are easy going and accepting. You take things as they come. Avoding conflict at all costs, you're content when things are calm.

well i should get back to studying geo.

11:47pm: Tianchang!~
"Well, its official.

I cant have children. Haha, Debbie Downer anyone?

But seriously folks..." its official, i need glasses. I went to the Eye Botique today and got my vision checked, im nearsighted, and im getting glasses. My dad requested that i should get clip on sunglasses so i can wear them when its sunny, but it was cheaper to get built in suunglasses that "activate" when you're in the sunlight and "turn off" when you're indoors. thats seriously the coolest thing i've ever heard. And i was trying out some glasses, i was talking to my mom about shocase, and the lady helping us said "excuse me, i overheard you talking about the SHOcase, did you know that one of our employees' son is in The Acedemy Is... who played there lasty year?" so i met the guy, he have me some Acedemy stuff (even tho i dont listen to them) and we started talking about music. I told him about R/T, which lead to a discussion about PHISH (yeah!, phish!) and we agreed that we had the same taste in music. becaus of that, he gave me a discount, and an "extra discount" for not having a hair cut. This guy is c000l. My glasses should come in withing 10 business days.


Tomorrow i'll be at school from 7:30 A.M. to 7:30 P.M. or more cause of stupid SHOcase. but the comp class starts tomorrow, we'll see how that turns out.


only 10 more pages of reading 'till i'll be ready to take that quiz. Of course i'll brush up / a lil' bit o' spark notes. But for now... shower!



wow, it's tomorrow in 1 minute :-\ !



Peace!

2:55am: Little Blue
Today was my grandma's 70'th birthday, and like everyone else who turns 70 in my family (she's the 3rd) we give them a surise birthday, to increase the chances of a heart attack, but mainly for fun. But before that, i had sax lessons, then r/t practice. @ mark's we had what we say was one of our best "jams" ever. i was the first to get there, so we just started to play Chalkdust Torture by PHISH, and took a lot of extended solos, then phil came and just pulled a bassline outta the air, not even knowing what song we were playing. then phil and i, by pure chance, started playing the same improvised lick, which was quite the cool, then went back into the main theme for Chalkdist torture and faded out. It was sw33t. we also worked on a song for our album this summer.

My grandma's suprise party was at my aunt's house, whihc is across the street from a park, so my family played a lot of baseball/softball. While my uncle and i were playing outfeild, he kept asking me these awkward/embarrassing questions about Christy. He really reminds me of ryan dietz, the way he acts and the stuff he says, i realized today that he even sounds like him. I said that i would come home and work on my bio oral test, but i havent :-\. oh well...



Peace

12:43am: Original
             

Edit: i think i messes up putting the pictures in here. i dunno...

peace

6:50am: Quite the miscellaneous
oh man, we find out who will be a DM tomorrow. This is exciting :-D

We think we have found a t-shirt design, we just need a computer program to draw it. Also, if everything goes according to plan, we'll be playing at the Taste of St. Huberts and the Church of the Holy Spirit County Fair thingy. Album coming this summer, 9 original songs!

I've driven home with chris bandurski 3 days in a row now. cool kid, that kid...

It seems like we've had a test everyday this week in english...we used to not do work in that class.

jazz chior was actually fun today, we wrote a new ending to the song.

Today was cinco de mayo, but our spanish class didnt bring no food. tomorrow is seis de mayo, a.k.a. the title to a trey anastagio (phish guy) solo album. yeah!

oh yeah, and...



peace

2:13pm: chico malo 8-)
Yesterday was the most sucessful library hunt ever, I went there to print my spanish script, and finished in like 10 minutes, so i roamed around the AV section looking for, what else, some PHISHY cd's. sadly, they didn't have any, so i did a search to see if they had any other PHISH stuff. I found this amaising book about them, with a bajillion pictures of them, and a lot of them reminded me of R/T stuff. For example, theres one of them when they were our age playing @ a church outside, looking identical to one of R/T @ st. huberts. Then theres some pictures of them where trey, mike, and fish had my/ty/mark's hair length, then page had hair just like Phil's. Theres alos a pic of them singing @ a basketball game, just like i want to do! Anyways, i also got a cd with 40 a cappella barbershop songs on them, because that music is now one of my favs. Im online right now buying us some awesome barbershop music, and i think Tippy has some. I also got an Allman Bros. CD, and a classical guitar solo CD. They're all wicked fosh.

Today we got our Fantasia 2000 music. part of it's in 7/4! Mr. gibson asked if anyone had ever played in 7/4 before, and Mark, Phil, Tyler, and i raised our hands (and the only ones, too), cause in Bakesale @ "Phil's Phunk Reprised" it goes into 7/4 (it used to be on our purevolune site). That was fun, then in spanish we did our fashion show. I e-mailed Dr. rodreguez, he said he'd send me the pic of my "chico malo" outfit. Chad, Brandon, Don, and i had an 80's gangta' theme, and it was quite sucessful. i'll post the pic(s) when i get them. It made me discover this cool dodgeball bandanna (sp?) my brothers have, i think i'll wear it from now on. Im going to try to figure out how to use that thing that counts who has commented the most on you lj.


Peace

7:21pm: Do they make belated Nat'l Teacher's Day cards?
We had jazz choir today for the first time in 10 months (to me). The only problem is that eric scheduled it for 4 o'clock, and it's not like i'm going to go home and come back, so i stayed and worked on some solo stuff. Afta'werds i got a ride home from nice ol' mrs. miller, alex, and chris. good times...good times.


now i have to go to the library and print out a spanish script cause i dont have a wroking printer, and it turns out i cant even send it to christy cause this computer doesnt have a disk drive(?!?), and the script is on a disk. they have PHISH cd's at the library : ] : ] : ] : ] : ] : ] : ]


peace

3:14pm: Everytime you look at something old, you see something new
When i came home my brother asked me why people who speak spanish take spanish classes, and i told him it was because they could easily get a good grade in that class. He started cracking up, i dont get it...

Eh-knee-weighs, we did outdoor high jump in gym today. BAD idea, for it was -9 degrees outside (to me). in geo we took a test which was e-z. in englsh we watched R&J, and the room mysterously smelled like donuts ;-). during lunch r/t went to band and worked on i've seen all good people on one of the pianos. Theres this kid in ym bio class who i dont talk to, and who doesnt talk to me, but we are extremely lenient with our grading. it's nice. histroy was a 50 minute period of copying notes as fast as i could so i didnt have to do it all for homeowrk tonite. and lastly, spanish is boooooring.

is there much to talk about????


...



ok, peace

1:20am: loonies
well yesterday we went to guitar center with mark & phil, phil god a bunch of cords and a bass pedal, then we all pitched in to get a book of yes songs written for vioce and guitar, so we can cover "i've seen all good people". We have to sing above the staff in treble cleff :-\. oh well. after thati went to da moovies with christy, we saw Millions, which is a movie about 2 british kids who find a bag full of money, and then the villains who stole it come after them. I would recommend it.

gotta get ready for lessons,
