silver lining my friends...silver lining...

FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Something to make my summer worth living through!!!!! STEPHEN SONDHEIM'S 75th anniversary concert is next Friday and I have tickets!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Even though the name "Stephen Sondheim" probably doesn't mean much to many of you, maybe names like JOSH-FREAKING-GROBAN, Carol Burnette, Angela Landsbury and BERNADETTE PETERS mean something? They're guest performers and I haven't been this excited about something in a long time...DAH! Sorry if this seems lame to y'all, but my favorite stage actress (Bernadette Peters), along with my favorite male singer (Josh Groban) and my favorite comedian (Carol Burnette), all singing the songs of and honoring my favorite composer (Stephen Sondheim)...I screamed like a kid going to Disneyland for the first time when I found out about it!!! *sigh*

chop-shop

So, I got a haircut today and it's pretty lame cause new bangs are officially the most exciting thing that's happened to me so far this summer.
Anyway, gotta go.
Work sucks, but the money's worth it.

I've been workin' on the railroad...

My work has officially overshadowed every aspect of my life! It's so freaking true! I worked ALL DAY (from 11:15-8:15) on my flipping BIRTHDAY and have yet to be able to do anything with my family for it because, that's right, I've been WORKING. I missed a going-away barbeque for some close friends of mine who are moving to Virginia because I was working too...I hate 30-40 hour work weeks! BLEGH!

shake-a, shake-a

We had an earthquake today! Woo-hoo! I'm wierd, but I love earthquakes...they're really fun (except for the major one the other day in Crescent City...my aunt and uncle live there, so tsunami warnings are kinda sucky). Anyway, that's pretty much all.

breaking news

Well, here's an update for you all (sorry to those of you I haven't been talking to...I've been the busiest of my life lately).
I'm working two jobs now, five or six days a week (YMCA and Robinson's May). It's acutally a good excuse to go shopping, cause Robinson's May has the strictest pants or skirt suit dresscode I've ever seen! You know what that means? More clothes! (BLEGH...If you didn't already know, you know now; I HATE SHOPPING)
Also, I've applied to GCC, PCC and Citrus (all Community colleges) as back-up plans in case this year doesn't work out. I'll give you guys the 411 as soon as I know.

ANYWAY, that's the latest.
I hope everything is going well for everyone else and I'll talk to you all soon.

my quota

To those of you who protest those sad and depressed blog entries, I'm giving you fair warning so you can't yell at me: THIS IS A SAD AND DEPRESSED BLOG ENTRY! DO NOT READ ANY FURTHER!!

There. Can't say I didn't warn you.

So, I thought I saw someone today...someone that I miss alot...someone that I've heard from only once the entire time I've been home...and it made me sad. How is it possible to live in a tiny, 2-room house with three other people and eight pets, and still feel so completely and desperately alone? I mean, I've honestly never been this lonely before in my life. It's like I'm sitting and waiting for something to happen to make this summer worth not killing myself over, and it's not coming...I've never dreaded my birthday more than I do this summer. None of my high-school friends have shown any interest in getting in contact with me (and I know for a fact that they have been hanging out without me), and I'm not close to anyone in my family really. I know you guys know this, but I miss you all so much. I can't be any more sincere than I'm being right now (I mean seriously people! I'm sitting here crying while I'm writing this). I miss having our talks Maves, and I miss eating lunch with you Erin, and I miss being angry with you Kyle ( with you...not at you), and I miss laughing with you Bohl, and I miss hearing you pray in the corner of the lobby Haskell, and I miss taking naps on eachother Bree...I just miss you guys. Please know that even though I can't hang out with you guys or take roadtrips to visit you or anything that you guys can do, I still love you and I pray to God with all of my heart and soul that I will be back in August. Thank God every day that you are able to be close to the friends that you love, cause it sucks when you can't.
Love you guys.

excuse me while i go wash the flesh-eating germs off of my hands

To whoever coated my tonsils with gasoline and them lit them on fire, tell the guy that stuffed cotton up my nose that I'd like to breathe some time soon if he doesn't mind. And, oh yeah, the person destroying my lungs with a jack-hammer? STOP IT.

Thanks,
tara nichole

P.S. By the way, I liked my body temperature where it was, so if you could put it back below 100 degrees, I'd be really grateful.
