Finally!

I finally have almost all of my grades. I passed college 101, got an A+ in Music 1, and an A- in both English 1 and Theater 1, just waiting on my grade for history 4! I'm so happy!

I've been knitting whenever i can. I'm working on socks for a friend and socks for myself. I also started a baby cardigan, but I'm mostly working on socks.

The second semester has been going quite well so far. I'm taking Music 2, sociology 1, English 2, and Political Science 2. I like all my professors so far.

I saw Spiderman the musical about two weeks ago. I happeend to like it, though the critics hated the show. I think the critics were just mad that they werent allowed to review the show initally. I hope a soundtrack comes out soon!

I hope to see Priscilla Queen of the Desert soon, because one of my favorite actors, Nick Adams, is in the show. In fact he has a lead role. I saw him in A Chorus Line, and was amazed at his talent, and his good looks.  I cannot wait for the soundtrack to come out!

1st post of 2011!

I still haven't taken my finals for the first semester. I came down with an awful stomach virus and had to be sent home the week of finals. I will take them when I return to school for the spring semester. What really stinks is now I have to pull out my books and study where most people dont have to study over break.

Christmas was intersting. My grandmother fell on Christmas Eve, and my parents were with her in the ER on Christmas Day. She broke her wrist and a bone under her eye. Christmas dinner was actually on the 26th.

Then last wednesday morning, my mom slipped on the ice and broke her wrist. Now my two main sources of rides cannot drive and my sister is going back to college on Tuesday.

I've been achy lately, but I've been able to knit through it for the most part. I just finished a pair of socks for me. I used Deborah Norville's serenity garden yarn with size three needles.

Today I will start a new pair of socks. I'm in a sock mood lately.

That's all for now. Happy New Year!

A Long Awaited College Update!

So I haven't blogged since August. Oops! I've been super busy with college! I'm doing well socially. I joined the Newman Catholic Club and I sing at mass and I have friends.

I'm also doing well academically, but finals are coming up and that's a stressful time! I'm most worried about my theater final. We have to memorize a scene with a partner and write a paper about it. My partner, is a commuter, so we have only gotten to rehearse once outside of class, because we are both busy. Last time we rehersed in front of the teacher, and he ripped me apart. I know it's part of theater (Being criticized) but it really felt like he was only picking on me. I'm also having trouble with lines. The hardest part is for me to want what my character wants, and to have action behind each line. When I told my proffessor about having Aspergers, he said well theres somone in the acting major program that has that same issue and doesn't struggle with sacracsm and empathy. I wish people would understand that not everyone is the same, especially two people with the same disability.

To top everything off, I've been extremely tired lately. I went to the doctor who ran a blood test and everything was normal. Another posbility is that one of my medications is making me tired, but this medicine really helps with my pain.

In my very few spare minutes, I've been working on knitted christmas gifts. Will post pictures of them after they are finished and given out.

Last weekend was fun, because I went to see Promises, Promises with a friend. I had already seen the show, but loved it the first time and wanted to see it again. Sadly, Sean Hayes was out sick this time! However, Kristen Chenoweth was still performing that night!

That's all for now

almost time for college

In exactly two weeks, I will be moving in to college. This summer went by so quickly! It was a great summer though! Last wekeend, I travled to New York City. I went to the mets/Phillies game. The game was really fun, especially since the Phillies won! Then I went to see Promises Promises! I met my idol, Kristen Chenoweth! She was amazing, as won Sean  Hayes. I never knew Sean Hayes could sing!

My pain has been average this week. I decided I will audition for orchestra at college, so praticing for this will cause some pain. I've been swimming a couple of times, and this helps my pain greatly.

I'm working on a few knitted projects. I'm about to finish a cell phone sock. It was a really easy pattern. I worked on it at another Phillies game that I went to on Friday night. They won again! I've also worked on socks.and a baby blanket. The blanket is to put aside for any shower gifts in the future.

Happy 4th!

Greetings!
Happy 4th of July!
I've been quite busy lately. Yesterday I went out for sushi with a friend. It was great catching up with her. We went to camp and middle school together.

 As it is now July, I'm hoping to finish my mom's knitted philly phanatic by the time her bday comes around (July 13th). She knows about the phanatic, and is going to help me stuff it. I bought an outfit at build a bear for it but might exchange it for just a philies shirt rather than a full uniform.

I almost finished the blue socks yesterday. I messed up on the measurements and the one is too small. Oh well, such is life.

I just started socks for my grandfather. I hope he will like them. I'm doing them toe up.

udpate

Today I'm going to the Idina Menzel concert with my Aunt and Uncle as my graduation gift. In my opinion it is one of the coolest gifts ever! I love Idina and cannot wait to hear her in person!

I'm writing this on my new laptop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is so awesome! It's a dell inspiron, and the front features a design by OPI polish. Its so great finally having a laptop without any blocks.

I finished my princess socks finally, and i'm working on anklets for me, and a phillies phanatic for my mom.

I'm a high school graduate!

I graduated the 16th. I received three awards, the presidential award, the citizenship award, and the upper school award. It was a great ceremony and it feels great to be a grad! I will miss my friends and teachers, but I'm ready to make new ones.
