| "fill my heart with song & let me sing forevermore"
i went to this fiesta at Mater Delarosa in sierra madre. my dad went there 20 yrs ago for this one church retreat and we saw a flyer in the mail. so we moseyed on over and at first..we went hiking around..then we actually went to the fiesta..and it was okay..nothing too grand but then at nite a jazz band was playing and this guy was singing all these old songs..[frank would've loved his voice!] he sang a couple frank sinatra songs and i got really excited, so we stayed longer than we planned and then, we were about to leave..so we started walking but then they started playing this really nice jazz song..and my dad wanted to stay longer.me and yola were doing the charleston in the parking lot and this old man said "there's a dance floor up there yanno" haha so we went back up to the fiesta and grabbed some chairs and stayed there
and the singer guy was like "we'll be rightback in a couple minutes"then he passed by where we were sitting and i said "you sing great!" and he's like "why, thank you! whats ur name" and he introduced himself and i asked if he could play "fly me to the moon" and he said he'd try to put it into a medley somehow. then when he got back into singing..he sang a couple songs then sang "come fly with me" so i thought that maybe he got the songs switched up so i felt somewhat satisfied.we got up and started to leave but just when we were leaving, we were standing on the side..(like almost behind the stage by now) and he was singing this weird song then i heard "fly me to the moon..let me play among hte stars" and i jumped and i ran back. his voices was soo great..and you could tell he was looking at where i used to sit..and he was looking for me. then after the song was over..he said "a young lady requested thatt song..i hope she heard it and enjoyed it!" and i said "WOO HOO!! OVER HERE!! THANK YOU!!!!" and he's like "thANK YOU!! GOD BLESS YOU!". that was the happiest moment of my life! i was smiling soooo much! i even smiled the whole way back home!
today was really a family-filled day. i missed my dad, so today was THE bonding day. we're gonna bond tmrw as well cause he'll be giving me a lesson in mechanics! how to change oil, learn all the parts of the motor, how to see if the car needs more fluid..all that snazzy stuff! SO EXCITED!
i havent slept for the past 4 days. tuesday: only slept 3 hrs (@ debbie's working on AP US project); then wednesday was the longest day everrrrr with graduation and then grad nite (didnt sleep AT ALL) thursday: overlapping with grad nite, i only got to take a 2-hr nap then french club banquet. then slept at 1 and woke up at 1. friday: larry's party, slept at 1 and woke up at 6 for my arts-x-press orientation, then marissa's party and slept at 1:30. gAH! i need sleep
*chEERS to an awesome day!! | | |
| "the hardest part of letting go, is to say goodbye"
this is so hard. the hardest thing to do is to say goodbye to
someone
you love. i know it won't be a final goodbye, but
the mere thought of
not seeing your face every solitary day
seems like the saddest things
in the world. to my seniors, all
the memories will never be forgotten.
after the musical was
over, its just been one of those times that you
can't forget.
every day spent with you guys has been spent like it were
the
last. thanks for the inspiration, motivation and great times!
i'm
beginning to realize that i'm going to have to be the one
in your shoes
next year and taht just makes me so sad. how
will i ever amount to such
wonderful people as the class of
2005. this year's seniors have been
truly an inspiration. shan,
i honestly dont know how i got so close to
you this year, but
im glad i did. thanks for absolutely everything! i'm
realy
going to miss those talks in your car after rehearsal when
you'd
take the "long way" home and spend liek an hour
outside my house
talking. thanks for always being there and
for always lighting up the
room with your smile. you horse!
hahah..i'll miss your teeth, the
heater in your car, mint-n-chip
ice cream, taco bell runs, missing
ELLEN dance, "THE MALE
DANSER", "use your IMA-GIN-ATION" whats that song??,
RED TRUCK!,
"EVITA PERON WAS
THE MAIN CHARACTER..",
our little dance sequence in
the middle of the song, and of
course your great insight to all
my wonderful problems. i love
you chica. Bella, where would i be
without you? "you're a
child..and thats how i treat you" good times!
i'll miss you lots
next year, with your crazy driving skills, putting
on make up
in your car, your ESCADA perfume in my eye, your teasing
your hair, "CHRISTINE, WHAT DO YOU THINK
YOU'RE DOING?!", "me: i wish
my legs weren't short and
stumpy, but long and lengthy like yours.
christine: but i have
sausage legs! both: aYYYY *fall to the ground"
hahah, thanks
for your red hot lip gloss during AG, helping me tap-a
tap-a!,
"they're coming to america...TODAY!" thank you seniors for
making this year truly amazing. and now im feeling quite sad.
true, i
have kristen and chaz to guide me through next year,
but it just wont
be the same. there's this empty feeling in my
heart everytime i think
of who's gonna take me home
afterschool everyday, or who's gonna take
me on ice-cream
runs, who's gonna be the person who will know exactly
what
song's been stuck in my head, who's the one who im going to
gush
about my boy problems to, who am i gonna turn to for
inspiration on
stage, who am i going to sing alanis with, who's
gonna put a smile on
my face when i walk into physics class?
you leave me to question so
much. but i know this isnt the
end..its only the beginning. i sit here
in my room feeling empty.
i should be coming home from rehearsal right
now, or getting home
from your house after working on writing a song,,
but im not.
thanks for the memories!
on another note>>> JUNIOR YEAR is almost overr!!
wow..the most stressful year is finally behind us! so much went on this year,
just some random pics>>
*cHEERS to the class of 2005! i love you all!

| Anything Goes, a bid farewell...
my greatest happiness comes in a multitude of forms. the first
step on
stage, the moment i sing my heart out, the tap my shoe
makes, the
smiles from the audience members, the grand applause,
& yes, the
final curtain call. memories that will exceed pages in
any diary, fill
my heart and will be cherished forever. the people
i worked with will
never be forgotten. watching the audience members
stand as the final
actor takes his bow was truly exhilerating. we
touched so many people.
audience members were thanking us
for bringing back old memories and
uplifting their spirits. a grand
appreciation as this was truly
unforgettable.to the seniors, i bid
you farewell on your final show by
rausch, however, i will not
doubt to see you in another show in the
future. we started off
on a rocky start, with long & tiresome
rehearsals, to extremely
funny sights, to learning how to tapdance, but
we came through
in the end. i guess things really do always turn out
great in the end!
i'm so sad to see the seniors off, yet excited for
what next year
has in store for me. im glad i built strong friendships
with people,
especially shannon..oh man, am i gonna miss you. here's to
our long drives home & hours spent talking in your car outside
my
house at 11 o'clock at night. thanks for always being so
easy to talk
to. im absolutely, positively going to miss darnel
like crazy. we've
been in it since the beginning of our theatre
careers (with little
shop)..and now me & cornelius will continue
the path. to chaz..i
honestly dont know where i'd be without you,
too. believe it or not,
with our love-hate relationship, i dont know
who i'd be. kris, i mean
gretchen/marco/cindy/marky-kate/cornelius,
where would i
be without you? we're the sole survivors!! we have
to carry our duties
out and keep on truckin'! it was destiny that
we met & they were
right, we're definitely inseperable. i truly dont
know who i'd be if i
never met you. and next year>>we're seniors!!
keep your head up,
hun! ahhh..the musical's over and here i am crying
my heart out. gah!
as cliche as it sounds, i'm really going to treasure
every day in
theatre class til the end! i love AG cast FOR LIFE!!
i miss the east side, the west side..
"its RENO sweeney and her 6 angels!!"
tappin' my heart out
*chEERS to awesome memories & great people!!
----------------P.S. a seperate post will involve fueler & our
date. possibly after sadies..cause it deserves an entire post!
