Sooooo cold. :(
Dec. 2nd, 2005 11:02 amWhy, oh Gods, why is it so bloody cold out?
Bah.
Humbug.
Etc.
On that topic, the first Xmas Carol performance was yesterday, although I feel a whole lot better if I think of it like a dress rehersal. Especially because Joanne was yelling out some people's forgotten or flubbed lines. That really pissed me off. I mean, I thought this was a performance. You're not supposed to go back and fix things in a performance! Prompting is just fine and dandy, but Joanne was like 'Oh no! you missed this line that wasn't really necessary anyway. I'm going to yell it out so now every one knows that you've messed up.'
Why is she directing this? She's a musician. She knows very, very little of drama.
Next performance: Sunday. Start praying.
Yay! I'm going swing dancing tomorrow! I love swing dancing. It has practically taken over my life. I can turn almost any conversation back to swing dancing. And Alex is coming (hopefully). Note to self: call Alex and get him the information. Also: call Caro and see if Stephen is giving us a ride. A ride would be nice. It's really too cold to go outside. It's supposed to go up to 8 on Tuesday, and I really hope it does. That would be very nice.
Oh, and just because I think you'd be interested: Alex asked me out last Sunday. And I said no. He could have been my first boyfriend, but I really don't like him that way.
Bah.
Humbug.

Wow, that's a long HTML thingie. Apparently, my life is pretty good right now. I'd have to agree, even though the automated advice thinks I need more friends and that my spiritual life sucks. But the latter is probably just because I said I couldn't quote from a holy text, which actually isn't true now that I think about it. I can quote from the Bible. I just don't think it's really holy, ergo I said I couldn't. And then the stupid automated tallying whachamated thing thought my spiritual life sucks. Other than my chronic laziness, I think it's pretty good.
That's how I think about my life in general, as well.
Stupid laziness.
Oh, and my love life isn't that great. Get this: I don't really care. I'm single and I am not looking for a relationship other than friendship (I need more friends ;_;) with anyone, male or female. I mean, it'd be nice, but...I don't know. I'm just not interested right now. The slight nervousness has nothing to do with anything.
Nothing at all.
I really have to ask Alex what his intentions are. He wants to do something on Sunday. Not that I mind, even though our conversations are stilted and totally akward, it's just that I don't want him to think that we're going out or anything. *sigh*
So yeah. Preformances for my musical start next week. I totally don't know if we're going to be ready or not. Joanne, the director, is very stressed. I don't blame her. I was up till about 2:30 last night worrying about it, and other general angsting. I felt a whole lot better this morning, though.
Pwah, I don't really have much more to say. I'm going roller skating tomorrow with Caro and (hopefully) others. It should be fun.

Nov. 12th, 2005 11:27 pmI am so...just...inexperienced in the realm of all things sexual. It's not even very funny. How can hand holding make me feel strange? It wasn't even really hand-holding, he just put his hand on top of mine and ran a finger over my nails. This makes me feel very pathetic. I will not think about Mik, who has made-out with strangers before. Augh. The images...
Yes, I went over to Alex's. And we didn't make out or anything like that, contrary to fraternal expectations. We just sat around and watched Hitchiker's Guide and talked of the past, religion and politics. We barely touched, except when we were comparing hand sizes and when he put his hand on top of mine in the car on the way home. That was very unexpected. When he got out of the car I thought he was going to walk me to the door (in front of his Mom). In hindsight, it's pretty obvious that he wasn't going to.
Thank God. I probably would have done something idiotic.
Caro, dearest, stop squealing. It's most unbecoming.
...
Tough decision time: shoebox project or piano practicing...hmmm....

Swing!...and snow
Nov. 6th, 2005 10:07 pmYay! I went swing dancing yesterday. It was really fun. Well, I mean it always looked like it would be uber fun anyway, and now I know that it is. It felt really weird being sort of held by a guy. I haven't really had much human contact in a while, other than the odd hug from Caro. I did get used to it, though. Except for the sweaty guy. He was a good dancer and all, but man! he was dripping! Ew!
And I finally met one of Caro's crushes. Rob, aka the-guy-who-looks-good-in-argile. He kind of looks like Ioan Grufford (or whatever). And he looks...nice. I don't know. There's something about his face that's like open and friendly or something. I wonder what his dæmon would be...
I suspect he might be a trifle gay, but then again so does Caro. There were a few other guys there that I'm sure are completely gay. I don't remember their names.
I just realized (about a week or so ago) that I have changed. A lot. I'm more confident and self-assured and I care less about what other people think of me. I have no idea what started this change, probably a mix of saudi, living on my own, and finding my dæmon. Because I would never even consider thinking about dressing up like a pirate and doing the Jack sparrow walk in public before. Ah, but it was so much fun! And now I want to do it when it's not Halloween so people can stare at me more. Yes, I'm a little crazy, but it's in a good way. Maybe I just got tired of trying to be invisible in Saudi. Meh. Whatever. [/self-analysis]
Oh, and it snowed again last night. Good thing I didn't go out at all today.
Alex and I are getting together again next weekend. I hope he doesn't consider this a date. He says he just wants to talk (and watch movies)...but...*shrug*
