Project

So recently I started a new project. I love to scrapbook, so besides keeping up with my old ones (which i really need to get on, i’m so behind. like a year behind… oops) i decided to make one for andrew and me. I found this beautiful one at jo ann fabrics when mom and danny were shopping for something to make a curtain out of (why not take advantage of staff retreats?) and i got some supplies for it and i went home and started. i do a little at a time, and i hope to be on top of this one instead of behind like my others. i have a few pages done already and i think it looks beautiful so far.

here’s the front cover. you can see it had a little place to write a title for the book. so i kept it simple:)

here’s the inside “intro page” i guess you could call it.

it’s the one i put at the end of my last post. and a fun fact is the ribbon with the hearts shown on the page is what i found first in jo ann fabrics. from there i decided upon the whole project.

on this page i decided to put the pictures that are different than regular “photos”. like the one all the way on the bottom is from photobooth on my mac, but i changed the settings to something. and andrew looks like he’s 5:) the one in the middle is from photobooth at the mall, and it’s the first picture andrew and i had together. kelsey was in it but i cut her out lol. and the top one is from andrew’s new laptop he got for christmas. it’s a dell (eww) but he could mess with how he looked through webcam so i took that one.

this is my senior page. the glare on the picture is kind of bad and its because of the terrible lighting and the way it took the flash in my room, but i took my favorite pictures of us from my senior pictures and i took letters and colored them silver and blue for mrhs. the one on the first page is also from my senior pictures, but it’s my favorite one out of all so it gets its own page.

this one is just a page of random pictures of the two of us together. oh and in case you were wondering, the one on the bottom right is a picture i took of our reflections in toaster oven at sheetz while we were waiting for food:)

and here’s the last one i have done so far. they’re from me&andrew&danny&erica’s walking adventures to the farm. we found hay barrels there and hung out on them for the afternoon. 

well, i’ll continue to update about the scrapbook after i make more pages!

Still Feels Good

That old t-shirt you wear to bed
Hangin’ off your shoulder by a thread
The one you ripped off me when
we first met
Still feels good

That old familiar song blarin’
from my car
We know every note, every word
by heart
Puts a smile on your face ’cause
you know it’s ours
And it still feels good

Your fingers hooked around
my belt loops
Leanin’ up against my ride
Remember that first time I touched you
It doesn’t matter-I’ve held you a
million times
Oh, and it still feels good

We made some crazy plans, had some
crazy dreams
And now that we’ve reached
a few you would think
That it would get old to you and me
But it still feels good, still feels good

Your fingers hooked around
my belt loops
Leanin’ up against my ride
Remember that first time I touched you
It doesn’t matter-I’ve held you a
million times
Oh, and it still feels good

Oh, your fingers hooked around
my belt loops
Leanin’ up against my ride
Remember the first time I touched you
It doesn’t matter, I’ve held you-
I’ve touched you
I’ve felt you-I’ve loved you-
and it still feels good

Yeah and it still feels good, baby
Yeah, it still feeld good-yeah, yeah, yeah
Still feels good
Still feels good, baby

i love you andrew.

picnik

SOOOOOO picnik is taking over my life. I am so addicted:)

In case nobody knows what I’m talking about… it’s called picnik… it’s kinda like photoshop, but it’s online (picnik.com) and omg it’s so much fun. Here are my favorite ones.

lol I know there are a lot on here that I put up, but on facebook there’s like a bunch more. so just go on mine and see them:)

The cast list for The Boyfriend goes up after school. I’m kinda nervous. I had a bad dream while I took a nap this afternoon that they didn’t put me in the show and that nobody wanted me in drama class anymore because I couldn’t even make the school musical. GAHHHHH. anyway. I’m going to patiently wait I guess….. 

I’ll post soon about the results!!!

the land of nothing to do actually has stuff to do!

 

ok so take the two hearts and make them sideways instead of up and down, and that’s my christmas present from andrew!!!!!! hehe i’m wearing it right now but i have to give it back so i can get it back for christmas as a present lol i just wanted to share that.

okkkk so thanksgiving break was awesome. i can’t upload pictures because they’re on my phone and i’m currently on the phone so i can’t send pictures at the moment. but andrew came with us to “the land of nothing to do” and we had so much fun. we saw twilight, went shopping near pittsburg (where he bought my ring) and we played with ryan alot:) he’s getting so big! he’s 2. not talking alot yet, but some words and names. he’s so cute. i’ll put up a pic of the 3 of us watching wall-e on my laptop later.

but now i’m home and sadly school starts back up on monday. i hate school. it’s so boring.

lol ok that’s about it for an update. i’ll put more up later, but i’m tired.

witty titles are so overrated.

hmmmmmmmmm….. things have been a little bit busy here lol

so i’ve been thinking about senior year alot lately… i want it to be the best it can be. now i  know i say this like a couple months too late, and it’s almost the end of 1st quarter, but in reality, we still have some time. the scavenger hunt is pretty much bombed so far, so i want team ABC (andrewbrianachristine) to get cracking lol. now that jukebox is over (which i still haven’t uploaded any pictures from that yet) and it was a BLAST, i want to start focusing on having the best senior year ever. i’m sure everybody says that, but in reality, my friends and i have complete open ended opportunities to have a freaking good senior year, so i want to take full advantage of it. [end rant]

jukebox=best show ever. idr if i posted on here, but at the saturday show, maddie ended up being too sick to sing, so i got to sing for her!!!! 

yeahhh i was pretty proud of myself for not like freaking out once i got there considering andrew and my mom were sitting in the front row! but looking at andrew (out of the corner of my eye) believe it or not calmed my nerves. it’s just his magic touch i guess;)

uhl has been going pretty well so far. we’re doing some random show called Rented Christmas. but andrew has been coming to some of the rehearsals, and i brought in my macbook the last time, and andrew ica and i locked ourselves in my mom’s office and just watched youtube videos the whole time. lol and took pictures:

(we were trying to be like batman)

anyway lol so then on sunday, debtrav came over to take my senior pictures! so far, we’ve gotten like half of them emailed to me so i can see them… hopefully by tomorrow afternoon the rest will be up. i’ll put more up later! my favorites:

i’m feelin’ good:)

 

YAYYY i finally got my macbook!!!! it’s b-e-a-utiful and i can’t stop touching it (thats what she said).

andddd…. i have this realllly great picture i want to put up. it’s simply gorgeous.

it’s me and andrew from homecoming:) i can’t even begin to get into how much i love him. i’m just sad that i could have had this earlier but i was stupid. anyway, that’s all over now, and now we’re perfect. he’s perfect. i don’t even know how to explain it. he just always knows exactly what to say or what to do, and we just fit with eachother perfectly. 

jukebox……………yeahhh that was soooo much fun. it was a blast! i’m sad that it was my first and last…. but the memories will stay forever.

senior year=going by really fast. it’s already almost the end of 1st quarter, and jukebox is already over, and thanksgiving break is in like 4 weeks and then christmas, and then new years, and then the boyfriend tryouts, and then everything’s almost over! i don’t even know what to say about college. i’ve been a little procrastinating and i’m probably behind, but i’m trying to enjoy senior year. and how do you do that with all this college stuff in the way????

ok so i hope i will remember to update this alot sooner than i have before. lol i always say that, don’t i.

changes, candy cigarettes, and the fair: the real story!

hi!!!!!!!

yeah so i’ve been like reallllllyyyy happy lately. i’ll get into that later.

changes. okay so tommy and i broke up almost 2 weeks ago. and lately i just feel alot better. i feel completely fine. kelsey and i figured out why too. it’s because during the last few months i felt like him and i were growing apart anyway and when we broke up and we stopped talking, it didn’t feel any different than when he wouldn’t talk to me while we were dating. except that i didn’t have this feeling of being upset because he wasn’t talking to me. i felt glad. so my best advice for any girl going through this is do not talk to the guy after you break up. it’ll help you ALOT.

candy cigarettes. yeah. i found them at the fair when i went with danny last saturday (not yesterday). i got some and they were like all gone in 2 days. so when i went with my fam on thursday i got somemore. excellent things. and then last night when i went to the fair with my SOS gang, i got somemore. i’m addicted and so is my mother. good thing they are way better than actual cigarettes lol

the fair. yep. i’ve been to the state fair 3 times. the first time with danny… SO MUCH FUN. as always. we made it a staff retreat (minus ica cause she couldn’t go) and we had a blast. we played this one game by ourselves, and danny paid for both of us, and i ended up winning so i got this stuffed frog which we named deborah. different rides and we each got $30 of candy. and danny od’d on it the next day. it was great. then i went with my family on thursday. and we just walked around the animals most of the time.  wasn’t too exciting. THEN i went last night with my SOS gang (minus christine but we met up with her later): matt, diane, jenny and ben. yeah that was quite an adventure, as anything with them is. we basically went on alot of rides, played 2 games, one being that lucky duck game so we all won something. we had this weird guy talk to ben and diane on the ferris wheel. and matt jenny and i had fun waching them. THEN after the fair we went to see disaster movie. worst movie you will ever see.  don’t waste your money. but we like talked the entire time and joked around with different parts of the movie. so it turned out to be okay. so after the movie i waited till mom got there with everybody… yeah we took ALOT of random pictures and videos. it was random.

 

TOMORROW I SHALL POST AGAIN.

 

^^ matt being completely normal (for his standards) and me being really creepy. with matt’s plastic sword he won at the fair.

off i go!

well i’m leaving for summerstock in about 15 minutes. but i wanted to post before i left.

I’m really nervous but i’m like praying to God that i make it through tonight. once tonight’s over (even though there’s more auditioning tomorrow) i’ll have the acting part over so i’ll be fine. but GET ME THROUGH TONIGHT!

 

okay my picture is my headshot i had to get for camp:-)

 

bye everybody text me if you want my camp address!

the end of my life. (and the end of my summer.)

so my life (and summer) is going to end tomorrow night around 5. why you ask? because UHL officially starts. the first meeting is tomorrow evening at 5, with auditions. we are doing Cinderella’s Glass Slipper. i’m kinda excited to see the kids and be together. but i’m worried about how the show process is going to go. we’re much more organized than any other year, but as always the amount of kids draws a problem. but oh well, we’ll deal and get through it.

so you’re probably wondering how this is going to be the end of my summer if UHL is only for 3/4 weeks. Well this jumpstarts my entire summer, and i’m not going to get many breaks. UHL ends on the 13th of july, and right after the last show i have to begin packing for Summer Stock. Young People’s Summer Stock (the one i’m going to) is a 2 week away drama intensive camp. I’m going with Christine, and we have to specialize in a type of art (the choices being dance acting and singing). Christine and i are doing the singing, because guess who’s teaching it?! The one and only Terry Eberhardt (see last post of car pictures to understand who i’m talking about if you don’t). so Christine and i are thrilled as ever. I’ll be gone from july 19th till august 1st, which puts us at camp on both our 17th birthdays. we get back on the 1st of august, and guess what comes out august 2?! BREAKING DAWN (my new obsession). the 4th book in Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight series. I’m so excited!!!!!!!!

so after camp, its august. hopefully i’m going to the beach with tommy in august for his grandfather’s birthday (if they’re going this year) and then when i get back from that (if there is a trip) there’s like 2 weeks break. Then i’m going to oc with the dornans, like we used to when we were all little. and that puts us to the beginning of senior year, my friends. isn’t that exciting.

here’s the picture. its me ica danny and tommy having a party with umbrellas in my moms car.

long overdue.

Okayyy story time. Prom first. Then the story about the fun way i blew off steam to take a break from school.

So it all started friday morning. I got my nails done with kelsey, cassie, aly, and tina. french manicure.

see? okay then. we had samples of soup at safeway for an early lunch. then we had quiznos. then we went to kelsey’s and cleaned alot and then i went home to get ready. then tommy came over and we took some pictures of just us.

 

okay so then we went back to kelseys to take pictures with the approximately 17 people we had at her house.

 

then we loaded up the cars and got to the prom. once we were there, we saw ms grey and mr parson and a bunch of other teachers, and like tons of kids.

then, after the amazing dancing and food, we headed back to the afterprom, located in las vegas, maryland. that was alot of fun. there was TONS of food, TONS of prizes, and we had fun watching transformers and doing other activties. then tommy and i got home around 5:30 in the morning and crashed.

thats the end of my prom story.

NOW i will tell you the fun thing that we did yesterday. Tommy (from drama not my tommy) and travis decided it would be the time of year to senior prank mr. e… so they ordered alot of packing peanuts and they got TONS of shredded paper, and filled e’s entire car with them.

 

so diane christine and i took it upon ourselves to clean out e’s car. while he stood and watched because he didn’t care enough to help lol

 

and finally, two hours later, we were “done”.
