I sent my dad on a scavenger hunt, and at the end he got a letter sayind, "Check your email," where he found the e-card...
He loved it...
I didn't think the card
was THAT funny, but apparently it was?

LAST Performance...
It was quite amazing.
The first performance we did warm-ups ('we' meaning the orchestra joined in with the cast and crew) and they. Were. So. Much. Fun.
They were really dramatic, and it would be embarrassing if you were by yourself, but because everyone was doing them it was just pure fun.
I looooove the 'Bananas of the World United'...
"Form the cow! Form, form the cow! Form the cow! Form, form the cow! Now tip the cow! Tip, tip the cow! Tip the cow! Tip, tip the cow! Now HAVE A COW! HAVE, HAVE A COW! HAVE A COW! HAVE, HAVE A COW!!"
(I honestly have no idea what it means to have a cow, but apparently it's an expression...)
I also love the "Form the house--in the house--rock the house!" one. But I really like, "There's magic in the theatre and the theatre is magic. And truly blessed are those who are able to share their talents with others."
Another one of my top favorites is when we all put our arms around each other and do the "What time is it?" "IT'S SHOWTIME!" "What time is it?" "IT'S SHOWTIME!" Cause we're all yelling so loud that it seems the building could fall over...
The first performance was okay. I mean, it was just little kids and their parents, with old people.
Before the last one, we did warm-ups, but didn't get to do 'Banana.' :( When we did the SHOWTIME!! one there was just so much energy and emotion, cause it was so many senior's last performances and every was really emotional, so we turned it into spirited yelling... And then a lot of people cried afterwards...
But our last audience was so good! They clapped loudly and was the first audience to scream along with clapping, and they laughed at a lot of stuff, even stuff that wasn't even that funny. I heard that it was almost a full house. Or... at least, two times more than what we usually get.
It was sad... cause it was the last one.
I mean... I was excited to go to IHOP afterwards, but... I didn't want it to be over.
We had to clean for a long time afterwards before we went to IHOP.
IHOP was fun. Mini John Travolta (most adorable little seventh grader ever!) sat at our table and got a bowl of fruit, then he only ate, like, seven pieces. I was surprised his parents let him go... Gretl went, too. It was late, though...
And at one point Mrs. Rod came and kidnapped Nikki's camera. When she got it back, Nikki made Hale go and take pictures of every table. When she got to Captain's table, she said, "Okay, I'm going to take a picture of you guys's table, okay?" and Kronkenator was being camera-shy and said, "No. Everyone except for me." Hale kinda got upset and said, "Okay, then, I'll take a picture of just you, then!" and he took off his hat and put it in his face, and that's when Hale got a picture that was quite... strange. I guess she got what she wanted? Well, it probably wasn't enough, or maybe it was too much fun, so she TOOK the hat and THREW it in a random direction... which happened to be at me.
Okay, I WAS just standing there and laughing at the scene, but suddenly his hat is in my hands (I'm serious, it just flew into my hands) and everyone else watching just looked at me, which was intimidating, cause... I don't like to be stared at.
Kronkenator was still yelling, "TEACHER! TEACHER! TEACHER!" and trying to grab the hat from her when he realized that she didn't have it anymore. I wondered if I should be on Hale's side or be nice... I decided on being nice, so I gave the hat back.
I dragged Hale back to our table and she handed the camera to Nikki. We looked at the pictures, and appanently when Kronkenator stood up to get the hat from me, Hale sat down and took a picture of Captain... It was a funny picture. It was awkward. But it was a pretty good picture, considering the fact that he only had, like, half a second to smile.
I still laughed at the picture anyway.
Thankfully, after THAT huge thing about Hale, we left. Meaning... I went back in her car.
Next time I know-- don't let Hale get away with a camera or strange and embarrassing things happen...

E-Card
I was sending an e-card to my dad for his birthday, so I unchecked the things saying I wanted to get advertisements from them, and I previewed it, but they checked it back for me...
Ugh... I guess I'll be getting stuff from E-Card company? *sigh*

Late
It's so late and I still have to practice violin cause I have lessons tomorrow and I HAVEN'T HAD TIME TO PRACTICE and I have two new songs and... yeah.
Performance
We had a good crowd tonight. There were a lot of people, and they laughed a lot.
Afterwards, we waited outside for our rides. This car came up, the window rolled open, and someone started waving at the teachers. They said, "Hey. Hi. What you doing here?" and they go, "Ummm... who are... OH! JAMIE! What are you doing here?"
And, so, yep, it was Jamie... who graduated, like, two years back. Wonder what he was doing at the Woods of Brent...
Anyways, I didn't get picked up until 11:10. I was the last one... Which is humiliating, cause all the teachers had to wait for me... They were so mad... Well, I bet they were mad, but they just didn't show it.

NO! NOT THAT JOKE!!
Elizabeth put this joke on her blog--
"Why did the girl drop her lollipop? Cause she got run over by a bus!"
She told me this joke over the summer, and then I had a dream that night that Nikki got run over by a bus... >:( I am not on good terms with this joke!
(Haha... it's okay, Elizabeth, I'm not mad.)

Somewhat Creepy Thought
Today in Speech class this girl gave a speech about how her dad died and then came back to life.
His intestines were falling apart, and he was in his hospital bed when he actually felt his soul leave his body and from above, he could see his body still there in the bed.
Then there was this tunnel with a really bright light at the end, brighter than any light he had ever seen in his life.
And then he felt the hand of God reaching down and pulling him out.
Then he was back alive, in the hospital bed.
This has happened to quite a few people. And the non-believers who wouldn't have gone to Heaven felt this intense burning, and then the hand of God recuing them and giving them a second chance.
They became Christians.
Just a little thing for you to think about...
I used to wonder what it was like to die. Not wondering in a bad way, just curious about it. I never ever wanted to experience it, of course, but I would sometimes just wonder, cause I hadn't heard anything about it before.
I guess now I know?

About the Random Pictures...
I've been posting Random Pictures of the Day ever since... forever ago.
But because I didn't have any time whatsoever yesterday to do that, I'll just stop. I mean, I'll probably post some every once in a while, but I'll just call it Random Picture.
Yesterday I was two hours away watching this dance show... It was cool. Kinda. It was an hour of the same stuff. The same interesting stuff. Like the dancers were on an inclined platform and tilted towards the audience, and they would just dance really slowly and the spazz out and then go back slowly again... They're called the Cloud Gate Dance Theatre Troupe, and their tour is 'Water Stains on the Wall.'
There was this reception afterwards for the people who were invited. We got to eat cheesecake. It was good.
And my mom started talking to the dancers, and she turned to me, pointed to one of the guys, and said, "All you need to marry is someone like this." Needless to say, I scooted wwwwwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay away... AWKWARD!! (She was just joking... I hope.)
And she talked to the director guy, who was a bouncy old man who's probably a ninja.
We got home after midnight, so I couldn't post... yep.

So Many People...
Today the world population hit seven billion people... according to my World Geography teacher.
ELMO SONGS!!
Elizabeth, remember that Elmo CD that we used to listen to when we were, like, seven?
I just found it an I'm reading the lyrics and I remember the melody to each and every song!
I don't know if that's normal or not... Haha!

And I Am...
It is Halloween.
And I am at home, about to do my English project.
I've never been trick-or-treating.
Nope. Never.
