I just need to update this thing

Yeah I haven't been on in forever, so I thought, why the hell not update? Can't say too much is going on other than academics but some overall life's been good. More tedious work is showing up especially with school ending in less than three months and AP exams in just two months. Essays, more American history, the works. Oh and our school's spring musical, You're a Good Man Charlie Brown is opening in less than two weeks. Gonna work backstage again like the little techie I am. I got to see a run through and it's going pretty well so far other than the demon set pieces on wheels, specifically Snoopy's doghouse. Last thing we need is an actor falling and breaking his/her neck.

In drama class actually we performed scenes in front of an actual student audience that we direct/act in. I thought mine went really well for the time we got even though I'm a perfectionist and wish we had another week. And of course it didn't help with the mini heart attack I got from someone's phone backstage going off. Yeah, I get really hyped up for this kind of stuff and I get all jittery like I drank twelve cups of coffee.

My mom turned 42 on the 28th last month. We went to a place in San Mateo called the Melting Pot which serves awesome fondue. Yeah, you cook your own food but it's worth it. Crazy expensive though. Oh and I was a dork and made her this card.

Yes it's cheesy but I think it's freaking adorable. And c'mon you only turn 42 once. Might as well take advantage of that.

My friend Francisco got into Doctor Who and has managed to reach the fifth season in like two months so it's really fun to obsess over how great a show it is. And also to inwardly wait for him to have his mind blown with whatever episode is next. I just like that about friends when you're able to have this one obsession you share and have great conversations about.

I finally took my SAT this morning. Been up since almost six in the morning and I regret nothing. I got up early enough to make myself a big breakfast of an omelette and cereal and was able to stop by Starbucks and get some hot chocolate and a cheesecake brownie which is freaking delicious. And for the most part, the SAT was pretty easy. It's nothing that complex: an essay, reading, grammar, algebra, and geometry. Though the math sections were really hard cause there's so much I don't remember. Luckily when in doubt, I just left them blank so I wouldn't get marked off for wrong answers. I'll be waiting a few weeks until I get my scores and hopefully I get a good score.
