Well, the news seems to be getting around so I want to update everyone in the livejournal world:

I'm going to NYU next year! I'm majoring in Music Education at Steinhardt.

So get excited, because I'm going to be living in hot apartment-style NYU housing and you should all crash my pad all the time. Yay! Much Love.

11:53 pm - Let's get it started...
Good luck on Acafest, Newtones!!! I hope it goes amazingly, and I better hear about it! I know you guys will beast though, because you're the best thing ever. Miss you guys!

In other news, I only have a few more weeks of school left which seems RIDICULOUS. I'll be home May 12th. I have to say though, I can't WAIT for summer. There is just so much to look forward to, and so many amazing people to spend time with. AND no classes. It's going to be good. Annnd who knows where I will be next year. I hear about Westminster (New Jersey) hopefully in the next few days, and NYU hopefully the next week or two. Scary. But life is good. And I hope everyone is happy. Much Love!

4:48 pm - Such an opportunity...
ALRIGHT my darlings. So, Summer is a-coming, and I have a proposition. Is anyone not sure what they are going to be doing for the summer, but know they want to do SOMETHING and possibly make some money? BECAUSE-you should apply to work at my camp (Chestnut Hill Camp) for the second half of the summer.

Basically, Melanie (whom we all love dearly) can only work at my camp for the first half of the summer, and in order to get hired she needs someone to fill in for her for the rest of the summer. SO you would work from like beginning of August to end of August and get paid like, somewhere around 1,000 dollars (I think it depends on age). You would be a counselor for Lower Camp which is 3-5 year olds and they are the CUTEST THINGS EVER. And the job is easy as HELL (if you don't believe me you can ask the BAJILLIONS of Newton South kids who have worked/are working there) and you get paid well and the kids are effing cute. What could be better?!?! And it's like, 8:30-4 on weekdays so you will still have nights and weekends free.

SO DO IT! Not to mention you can work with such amazing people as me and Maria Quinn. And various other Newton Southies. And it would be amazing. So, let's do this. Let me know if you're interested!! AND I miss you all. Much Love.

current mood: hopeful

11:30 pm - I never knew anything...
I feel like it's been a while and I'm due for an update. Read if you please!

Life. )

I'm home tomorrow/in Newton so if you want to see me call me! Or I'll probably call a good lot of you. Even though I'm only home for a day. Then I'll be in New York. Maria effing Quinn I miss you SO MUCH it's a little nuts. I will be calling you soon and if I don't SMACK ME IN THE HEAD. And I don't think Emily reads this but if you do lovey-face: Way too long is all I have to say, and we both know it. In fact, I'm going to try and call you right now. That's all for now folks. Much Love.

12:55 am - Temp.
So I woke up today (well, technically yesterday) and there was a bunch of Birthday banners around my bed. So I thought it was my roommates birthday and I just had no idea and I felt bad. Then I walked outside and there were more banners around my door, and it was covered in wrapping paper and said "Happy 1/2 Birthday Sammy!" with messages from my friends on it. WTF I HAVE THE BEST FRIENDS HERE EVER. They not only REMEMBERED my half-birthday, but they decided to CELEBRATE it, because we won't be together in the summer. They bought me a fancy cookie on South Beach that said "Happy 1/2 Birthday" and took me out to sushi/thai dinner (one restaurant, two amazing cuisines) and paid for me. Basically, amazing. It was quite the good day, and they are quite the cutest things ever.

Kinda makes the whole transfer thing just a little bit more difficult. Sigh. Everything is good here by the way. I miss you all. Much Love.

PS: Just so you can be jealous... )

Happy New Year!!! I hope 2006 is really good to everyone.

I don't even know what to say about my new years eve, only that I spent it in the best way possible.. and I just really had a good day and a half New York stint. I love being in New York. And I loved being in New York with everyone who was there. I'm just really happy that a night like that could happen at this point in life. I'm happy that my core high school friends are still my core friends. Even if I haven't been in college THAT long.. I feel like I have a bunch of very good and resilient relationships, and I'm thankful for that.

But this is not Thanksgiving!! It's definitely New Years. And of course, I'll post my resolution. Even though I don't think I ever really make resolutions.. I'll do it this year for everyone's enjoyment.

This year I want to be PRODUCTIVE and FOCUSED. Those two things, I've realized, are SO KEY to a successful life. And especially if I want this transferring thing to happen.. I just really need to clean up and take life by the horns and do good things with it. And I'm ready/excited for that.

And then Cynthia's wedding! So crazy.. it made me SO happy to see her so happy. She was beaming like whoa. And Emily was so excited about her new family and everyone was all about the love. That was nice, and I'm SO happy for Cynth. That's crazy.

I'm happy to be home. I'm QUITE overtired though, so there's the agenda for right now. I hope tomorrow is a good day. And really, Happy New Year everyone. Much Love.

I'm home now! It's cold, but nice. And I'm glad Lenni is here and we can be married. Once everyone comes home next week life will be famaze.

And the venting... )

So, call me up! I'm all about the partying this vacation. Let's make it happen. Ok, Much Love.

1:18 pm - Coffee.
So, I'm REALLY excited about next semester.

Why you are jealous... )

In other news, Thanksgiving= SO SOON it pains me. I'm a little too excited. It'll be nice to have a break.

This is random, but I just discovered the brilliance of the music library here so I'm excited. If anyone wants any type of sheet music from a show, or like a song that you've always wanted sheet music too, let me know and I'll probably be able to help you out. Music library here=my biffle.

I'm tired. I can't nap until 3:30 though. Sad. That's all, see you soon!!! Much Love.

2:03 am - Recently.
So, I just figured out a huge character flaw of mine.

I bitch about things when I'm really happy that they happened/are happening. And I think I bitch about them because I don't want to seem like I'm bragging or being conceited, but I want people to be alerted to the fact that they are happening because well, everyone is a little self-centered in that way.

But, the flaw here is that when I'm actually unhappy about things, or the thing I was bitching about-but happy about- goes away, I just internalize it. Because I can't very well bitch about the thing going away if I was bitching about having it.. right?

Sigh. I also don't think people should be able to cause other people a great deal of emotional distress. But alas, that is how life is. I was SO CLOSE. This actually really isn't fun anymore. In the slightest. Neither fun nor pleasant. Yay vague.

Other than that, and I feel like I say this in every entry recently, but it needs to be said: Death would be occurring if I didn't have Em or Mo. Like, legit. I love how I panicked to both of them at the same time this week, and ended up being insanely happy. And my plans with Emily are amaze. And living with them in an apartment as starving artists later in life will also be amaze.

I need sleep. Batboy (I'm doing tech) opens Thursday! Much Love.

3:40 am - Poke Us.
So, I am here sitting next to none other than Maria effing Quinn. And, I can say, life is complete. Except, its only 2/3 complete because Ms. Emily Vanderburg is not sitting on the other side of me. But, me and Mo did something to absolve that void, and oh it was beauts.

Yes, I am home. The hurricane beasted my life and my town.. so pretty much everyone and their mother left school. We didn't have school all this week. Impromptu week long breaks are DEF my style.

So I just had to post to say that life is beautiful, and will continue to be beautiful throughout this entire weekend. I can't wait. And I'm going to try to forget about the fact that I have so much work to do...

I think I have to say it again. SITTING NEXT TO MARIA QUINN. Like, I think I might stow away in her suitcase and show up in flipping Obes. Because us rocking out to Disney/90's music in mi coche actually makes the world a better place. And the fact that we ate a lot of good food together. It's all a beautiful thing. And how we are going to get 4 hours of sleep tonight, and somehow function together tomorrow. SWEET DEAL. Ok, over and out. Much Love.

3:32 pm - (The) Bomb.
I just took a psych test that I'm predicting I got some form of B on, so I feel like I have ample time to screw around now. And that includes updating my lovely livejournal world friends.

This weekend (aka fall break) in a nutshell )

Closing thoughts on life )

So people, I miss you all. Tell me about your lives. Or just tell me you ARE alive. I'm sorry about all this Laramie conflictness. Ignorant people suck, basically. But, I know you are going to pull a KICKASS show and that is what matters. And I will be watching the DVD when it comes out. Much Love.

10:21 pm - Man in my pocket.
SO I went to see Showtune with my friend Liz tonight. It's a Jerry Herman musical review. Our theater here is called the "Jerry Herman Ring Theater" because he went to school here, and he was IN THE AUDIENCE tonight. Like, wtf?? Jerry Herman.

At the end of the show (which was mad good, btw) they called him up onstage and started singing "Hello, Dolly" but with the lyrics "Hello, Jerry" (REALLY corny, I'm aware) and he started SINGING ALONG. And it was the CUTEST THING EVER because he was like "It's so nice to have me back where I belong" and he was so cute and happy and the actors started crying. It was basically a beautiful moment. And I repeat, he is the smallest man ever. Like, legit he's got to be somewhere from 4'11-5'2. So cute.

Yeah, that was the exciting thing of my night. Now I'm off to do weekend-ish things. Miss you all! Much Love.

12:40 am - Poomp.
Do we all love unexpected nerves and upsetness? I think we do!

Hey all, college is good, things are going well, I'm coming home for a day in like 11 days and then going to New York. So if you involved in either of those places, call me if you want to see me.

The effort may not be worth it.

And of course I would just like to say, if I ended up trapped in a cave with Maria Quinn and Emily Vanderburg for the rest of time, life would be more amazing than I could ever describe. Why these girls continue to better my life in new and interesting ways, the world will never know. But we would have to have a whole lot of BK. That would be the clincher.

Damn the fact that it is Monday and I have a really large Stagecraft test coming up and a HUGE ass monologue to memorize, two and a half pages on microsoft word style. Since when are theater courses supposed to make you work?? Boo on that. I miss you all! Much Love.

current mood: uncomfortable

3:57 pm - Great success!
So, today was pretty much the most successful day I've had in awhile.

It started with me waking up at 9:52 for my class at 10:10, but somehow I made it to class on time. Brilliance.
Then I had to read a monologue I wrote based on a true-life story for acting class, and we had a sub teacher that works at the same acting company as our teacher. After I did my monologue he asked me what my major was, and when I said "Theater" he was like "Yeah, I knew it" which for some reason made me really happy. Because like, just based on the way I presented he could tell that I was an actress. And that was cool.

Then I got an extension on my paper that was due today, so now it's due Monday. And it's still the bane of my life. And the teacher for that class wasn't there, so we watched a 30 minute video then left.
Then I had sushi for lunch. Success in itself.

Then we got our papers back in Stagecraft. My prof for stagecraft is like this crazy old theater dude who is hilarious and goes on MAD rants all the time. And no one knew what his grading was going to be like. BUT I ended up getting not a B, not an A, but an A+ on my paper. That's right bitches. And this other girl who worked ass hard on her paper and wrote nine pages (mine was six) got a B+. So it was sweet.
Then he let us out of stagecraft like 30 minutes early, so I got to get Starbucks with Lindsay.
Then I finally got my test back for Psych. And out of 54 I got a 50. So that's an A. Sweet yet again.

A little amazing, I'd say. Today was a good time. I feel smart! Indeed. Much Love.

6:31 am - Lessons.
So it's 6:32 in the morning. I haven't been to bed yet. I don't know why.

I have been in a room singing to a bunch of different songs for a LONG ass time. Oh college, how I love thee. Starting like three papers tomorrow? Oh, only after 2 PM. When I wake up. Much Love.

9:49 pm - Reminder.
Today I saw TWO people wearing my Dorothy shoes. The sparkly silver ones. The first time I had an intense wave of nostalgia and got all sad, the second time I was like "Bitch those are MY shoes." But I didn't actually say it. Because that would have been weird.

Things are good here. I worked out tonight for an hour!! What?!?! But now I'm sitting in front of my TV procrastinating on homework. Some things never change. Good times.

I just talked to Yoni and it made me miss him a lot. As always. And I talked to my Emmy today. Sometimes I fear she will cheat on me with new friends, but then I am comforted by her telling me it won't happen.

I love how it's been two weeks but I feel like it's been a YEAR. I'm sure time will start going a lot faster. OK WORK! Call me though, because I miss you. Hope everything in Newton/New York/LA/Ohio/wherever the hell you are is good. Much Love.

2:42 pm - Living the "dream".
So hey guys, I'm in college. It is SO surreal. I don't feel like I am old enough to BE in college because back in the day (like middle school and freshman year) I was like "O M G College kids are SOOOO OLD and know exactly what life is all about!" But I'm not like that at all. Eighteen now seems sooo young. But hey, I'm in college. And it's definitely pretty cool.

One thing that's been bothering me is that I miss everyone SO MUCH. I think my friend group in high school was unique in its closeness. Like, all the theater/music people at south had such a connection, and I think it was really special. It's really hard to find that elsewhere, and that's what I'm realizing.

Of my four best friends here one is a Marine Bio major, one is a Bio-Chem major, one is Pre-med, one is (thank goodness) another theater major! But like, science?!?! What?!?! Where my theater people at? And GET THIS: Most of the theater guys I've met here are STRAIGHT!! Where my GAY BOYS at is the real question. Good times.

So yeah, other than getting written up last night for alcohol (way to go Sammy! It really wasn't my fault though) everything is going swimmingly. I survived my first hurricane!! It was CRAZY. There are trees and shit ALL over the place on campus, it's a mess. And half my room flooded. Nice. I'm going to go figure out if I have any work to do and probably pretend to do it and actually just chill in my neighbors room. Great times! I REALLY miss you all. Call me!!! MUCH Love!

9:59 am - College.
So, I'm leaving my hotel pretty soon, and my destination is my dorm room. So like, I move in to college in about a half hour. WHAT?!?! So surreal. It's beautiful here though so that's good. And my roommate is cute and excited to decorate so that is good too. My mom is THE WORST traveler and is a slowass and makes things annoying so that's bad. But I'm going to college. So that's amazing.

Call me/leave me messages so I remember I have friends! Much Love.
