blog reader...

Mood: sleepy not sleepy
lately i've been stumbling upon random blogs and looking through their links to other blogs... these links send me to hilarious sites or pretty blogs... sometimes i'll forget about a place and then come back to it through another blog... in my late-night awake-ness, i find myself chuckling aloud... here are some blogs you may find amusing:

passive aggressive notes

the "blog" of "unnecessary" quotation marks

my very worst date

look at this fucking hipster

asleep on the subway

and awkward family photos



i hope those links all work!



in other news, "broadway at the movies" is going well... we choreographed "nicest kids in town" from "hairspray" tonight... it's going to be really cool :) i've forgotten how frigging hot it gets in the Rho building... you'd think after 3 years i'd get the idea, right? but the song sounds good and we're going to look fantastic



in immediate news: i just learned (from alton brown on "good eats") that spaghetti and ragu sauce are not eaten together in italy... must go there myself to find out if this is true... also now i really want spaghetti and meatballs...



i'm doing all sorts of things with this stupid html code... it's out of habit, but i don't know if it's necessary any more... whatever, i'll see when i post...



ok now i'm tired for real... paul said he would call me when he finishes his reading for the night... he has officially moved into an apartment in the city, about 5 minutes away from NYU... it's a nice little studio, just renovated... i helped him move some stuff in this past weekend... picture he and i crammed into a tiny elevator with a folded queen-sized mattress... good times... it's going to be hard finding time to/means of getting down to visit him this summer, but i'm really excited to explore The Village with him... and the time i don't get to be with him will be long and lonely (UGH! GROSS MUSHY BALONEY!! i know i know, i'm sorry... go here and commiserate: STFU Marrieds... we're not married, but it's just as icky)



ok... that's all for tonight... more sooner than later (maybe)

Have you seen the well-to-do up and down Park Avenue...

Mood: bored. bored stiff. this post is coming to you by request from adam. so i had a headache all day today. i woke up around 10am, already way earlier than i'd planned on waking up. i was woken up by a sound that was like running your finger around a wineglass. only it was really loud. i thought my ears were ringing, so i covered my ears. the sound went away. i knew joey was home from school, thought maybe he was messing with me, and got up to check it out. went to his room and asked "what the f*ck is that noise!?". he told me it was the indian point sirens being tested. it sucks that it woke me up, but i guess it was good because it means that it was loud enough to wake me up in case of an emergency. whatever, i had a headache. even after i took alieve, i still had a minor headache. it sucked. i am watching "the tonight show" right now. there is some guy sitting in the front row behind andy richter... he is very exuberant. i am also currently creating a netflix account that is free for one month. i will watch as many french movies as possible. gonna go focus, too much going on at once. hope you enjoyed this post, adam! ~~ EDIT: i don't know why this post wasn't posted when i originally wrote it! >:-0

let's discuss something...

Mood:oddly relaxed?
so i've become a lazy blogger... i blame this on me being too busy this year and twitter... apologies to those who want something more...

let's discuss the fact that as of friday, i have one year until graduate college... i know that there are people graduating this year, but i'm scared as hell... i have one year of grad school after that, but then that's it... i'm in the real world... and it's terrifying... i just want to be 8 years old, running around barefoot playing in the stream at my old house...

finals are hell... i especially hate having to trudge to the library to study, which i did thursday night with my friend sam... we got there around 10:30pm and stayed until about 4:30am... it was sick and not in the sense that means "cool"... i wish i could just blink and have them done...

alas, i cannot, so it's back to studying for me... thanks for listening

hiyo everyone! so since the last post, i have turned 21... it's weird to think that i am over one decade old... i feel a bit different... it's really funny to go out somewhere and order a drink and have to show proof that i'm 21... so far i have (legally) enjoyed a sex on the beach, a malibu and coke, a red raspberry martini, and a mojito (which spellcheck is telling me is wrong... it also says that "spellcheck" is wrong...)... all good fun...

in other news, i'm tired of being in school and would like it to be summer now, please and thank you

all i watch on youtube are clips from "whose line is it anyway"...

ok i've got to do some homework before bedtime... i miss everyone from home :-\

previously on lost...

Mood:nostalgic
so here i am, after a long hiatus from tiarafooling... i'm here to update a bit... i'm busy with school, work, mville sound, family, friends, and paul... i'm pretty darn happy

last week i was in Disney World with Manhattanville Sound... we got there on Sunday and left on Saturday... we sang at Cosmic Ray's Starlight Cafe on Monday- it was fantastic... we were lifted up from underground, just like beyonce (i assume beyonce has risen from an underground stage...it went really well and Disney has asked us to come back next year, and they said they want to try to get us an outdoor venue, which would be sweet... hopefully we can figure out a different outfit because rolling up long sleeves to make a 3/4 shirt is uncomfortable in 85 degree weather...

Disney World was one of the best trips i have ever been on... ever... it was my first time being there and it was truly even more magical than i even imagined... i was fascinated with everything there, from the castle, to the innoventions at epcot; from the immitation judy garland handprints in hollywood studios, to the roaming elephants at animal kingdom... i discovered that "disney fire smell" and "disney water smell" actually exist... there is no gum on the ground and they don't sell gum in the stores... no litter... friendly workers... it was awesome... i waved at little girls in princess costumes, wishing so badly that they came in grown-up sizes...

i literally cried when i saw cinderella's castle for the first time... i was on the phone with my mom, so she started crying, too... it was just so pretty...

the one thing that made me scratch my head was seeing all the babies around the park, being carried around or pushed in carriages by their parents... those kids are not going to remember going to disney world... they're just not.. which kind of makes me think that the parents are just bringing the kids along on their trip... you can't bring them on rides, which means that one of you has to sit out and the other would have to go on a ride alone... what's the fun in that?... true story: one of the girls in my group said she met a woman who had her 17 DAY infant there... what the hell?! the kid hasn't even been alive for a month and you bring them to Disney World? why? honestly, can anyone explain the reasoning behind bringing your newborn to disney? i can't figure it out...

anyhoo... it was fantastic... i got a tan and a henna tattoo... great fun and good laughs...

oh and i deleted every picture i had taken from sunday until thursday afternoon by accident during the "beauty and the beast" show in hollywood studios... it was awful, i cried and called my mom and paul... but i made up for it by taking 357 more and i got to go back to every park anyway, so they're not as fun as the first few days, but they're still good... and i've got the memories in my mind...

the one thing i'm sad about was that i didn't get to see the nrhs drama production, making it the first time i wasn't either onstage or in the audience for a nrhs drama show since i was in 8th grade... i heard it was a great show, though, so congrats to the drama society!

ok well that post was a little haphazard, but i'll try to make them more frequent so they don't feel so crammed... does anyone check this any more, or has everyone given up on me?

rachmaninov morning...

Mood:thoughtful
so i haven't written in a long time. i'm sorry about that to those of you who still want to know what goes on in my life. it's been a busy semester.

we had a blackout at school on saturday... i was at a baking party with girls from sound and the lights started flickering and then darkness... the blackout lasted over 36 hours... they went out saturday at 8:30pm and came back monday at 11am... needless to say, we had no classes monday... and as a bonus, there were plenty of games and fun times...

my room is a mess... i guess not having a roommate really makes you less conscious about having a mess... if i lived with someone else, i would feel the need to clean more... but coming in a dropping my clothes on the floor doesn't bother me so much at first... then it becomes unbearable... it will become unbearable tomorrow night when i get back from my suitemate's birthday dinner... i'll have finished my project for my special ed class and i can clean my room without worrying so much about work to do...

i'm going to be an m&m for halloween... most of my suitemates, toni, and 2 other girls are in on it too... i'm the green one... because green is my favorite color... our costumes are jean skirts, tank tops of our color, white knee highs, white gloves, and silver headbands... easy and fun... the big party (200 nights) is actually on halloween this year, so it won't be confusing like last year's...

i just can't believe it's going to be november on saturday... where is this year going?!!?!

i went to a psychic fair last night and had my tarot cards read... most stuff was pretty good, some was accurate, and some was bothersome... whatever, it is what you make of it... i think i'm going to learn how to read cards... i do have the book after all...

did i tell everyone that i'm in an elvis band? i sing backup and since i'm being put on the contract, i'm going to get paid for gigs... paul plays sax, and he's the one who got me in, which was very nice of him (he and i will be together 7 months tomorrow, dating a while longer, but official for 7 months... i'm totally crazy about this guy :-D )... i have a few gigs coming up in november, but the one in december i want to get people to come see- it's in tarrytown :) that would be very cool

time to get back to schooling... i'm pissed about this project... it hasn't gone the way it should have, but whatever...

ps- go start using pandora, it's awesome

just dropping in...

Mood:happy
it's been far too long... just wanted to say hello because i haven't posted since july... my bad, yo!

things of note: i'm a liberal. voting liberal. i don't care how perfect sarah palin's hair is. it's time for something other than an old whitey in the white house. ; i'm still very happy in my relationship ; my dorm room is finally looking more lived-in ; i'm going home on friday and i am SO happy ; i bought a nightgown tonight!

hooray! i miss everyone!
