so, the one christmas i actually have plans to leave the state, it decides to snow +16 inches. fml.
this always happens to me.
hear's the lowdown:
marching lynx's plans are to go to san diego 12 pm dec 26 until jan 2.
what happens?
more snow.
just my luck.
which unfortunately caused our trip to delayed first until 4 pm, then 7 pm, and now! 6 am tomorrow morning! this is getting ridiculous. this is exactly why i don't like sodak. or winter. bleh.
so first bo, now the band trip. what's next, school?! i don't even want that cancelled. because snow days = no "spring break." anymore than 2 snow days = less summer, which i definitely don't want.
oh, and i didn't get to go to my grandparent's house for christmas this year. :( which meant no christmas dinner for tressa.
i just want to leave now. i keep packing and repacking and repacking my suitcase, in hopes that i can fit more stuff in it. haha. so far, i can't believe it's holding up. i'm impressed.
also, i watched (500) days of summer again today. the movie just keeps getting better and better. :) and now i'm watching the incredibles, which i've seen sooo many times, so it doesn't keep getting better and better, but it's close.
i'm gonna go repack my suitcase and pack my lunch for tomorrow.
hopefully, i won't see you until the new year! 2010, here i come.

i hate snow. snow hates me.
i have waited over 200 days for my life to be completed on dec. 8 2009. (yesterday, for all ye dummies :) )
some questions you may have:
why was your life finally going to be completed on this date? because i would see bo burnham live.
was your life completed yesterday? no.
why wasn't your life completed yesterday? because of snow.
a snow storm cancelled bo burnham's show. i hate hate hate snow.
i'm not even happy we have a snow day today.
...take that back, i kinda am. i really needed some sleep. also, considering i have been SO incredibly busy the past 2 weeks, i have had no time to study for the act this saturday. it's going to be awful.
anyways. i'm seriously hoping bo is rescheduled for tomorrow (thursday) because then i could miss marching band rehearsal. also, we have a 2 hour late start friday for teacher's inservice. it works out perfectly!
so. last friday we had winter formal. it was dece. i ate delicious food with fun people before i went to the dance. but. the dance was definitely a let down. the dj sucked. the grease remix and then footloose?! you've gotta be kidding me. also, he played alot of country, which i despise. and because i bought my dress over a year ago, it didn't fit me as well as it did the 13 months before when i bought it. (i didn't go last year, and that's a longgggg story that you don't wanna hear.) oh well, i bought some kick ass stilettos that matched perfectly to the dress. and i styled my hair all taylor swift like. fun.
catch ya on the flip side.

frustration.
i just realized that all of my blogs are written on thursdays.
so i'm changing that up a bit.
but i have nothing to write, besides the fact that i got woken up from my nap by 3 annoying little girls. i'm probably the crabbiest person alive right now.
also, my dad thinks he's dragging me to the movies with him and his 6 other immature family members. little does he know that i have a dance show tonight. and two. i do not want to be seen in public with them. i try to advoid that situation quite often. 3. the movies that they tend to pick out to want to see quite frankly, suck. saw 6? black sheep? gag me.
on another note, i'm sad. because if i didn't have this dance show tonight, i would be down with atones and big trav in lincoln. oh sad day. sad day.
so anways. thanks for helping blow off some steam, blogger. :)

naughty word hangman.
long time no read.
so. creepy story.
i was running on my treadmill downstairs (which is located next to window.) i was about 20 minutes into the run when i see a flash through my window. i decided to not be worried. but then my cat comes running in and does her scaredy cat thing, runs back out, then runs right back in and up to the window that the flash came through.
hm.
went to dunn bros today and had a chocolate steamed nirvana. who knew happiness could be purchased for $3.57? and then also attempted to study for spanish imperfect vs. preterite and vocab. no success there.
i'm going back a few pages to all state. personally, looking back, there's nothing else i'd rather be doing on halloween. actually, i could think of a few. but i did have a blast. we ended up going out a day early (wednesday at 2) because snow was supposed to hit the rapid city area that night. so, the packing that i was planning on spending 4 hours on now had to be crammed into just under an hour and a half. ouch. but i did it. :)
i decided that my quartet was awesome. we called ourselves the family quartet. during practice we played naughty word hangman. >:) and then during the orchestra part of the concert we played no paper hangman and ate skittles/mentos that elliot hid in his suit pocket. we're cool.
but, funny story.
the first practice we sat at the top row, and we had a quartet in front of us. my quartet tended to be on the loud, obnoxious side. so, after the first break, we went up and sat in the same spot. the quartet that was sitting in front of us never came back. haha.
anyways. i've got to keep this accomplishing mood up.
adios.

smartboards sprinkled with raspberry custard kuchen.
so. i baked something tonight for the first time since... approximately...
a long time ago.
i don't bake.
but. our sociology class (what a joke) is having a culture fest, and we have to bake something that represents our culture. i'm german, and german eat kuchen. (cake.)
anyways, i just pulled it out of the oven and had a little sample.
and i have to admit, it made me want to bake more. not to be egotistical or anything but it was that good. and by bake more i mean bake more food, not just kuchen.
also, another little sociology story for you.
we are studying norms, and how people react to people that break them. so one of our labs was to break the norm. i chose to wear a different shoe on each foot. the funny thing is, is some people honestly thought i decided to wear them purposely for no reason at all. haha. i laughed. i think i will be doing that more often.
i've also come to the decision that i want to purchase a smartboard.
today in physics i drew a frog. with my finger. isn't that cool? answer: yes.
so santa clause, if you are reading this, please take notes.
i took a little trip to the new target today with my dearest friend atones. anyways. i'm still bitter at them. earlier this year i had an interview to possibly work at this said target. the lady was oh so impressed by me that she told me she wanted to set up an interview for me to work in the starbucks. (i was PUMPED.) she told me she'd be giving me a call asap.
what happens?
no call. no call. and still.. no. call.
no call means no job. :( no job means no money.
tresstress is rejected not only from juice stop, but from target as well. ouch.
i decided to therefore never set foot into this said target.
ha. but i did today. and what do a see?! starbucks. with all these stupid people working there.
so answer me this, if the stupid people get the job, what does that make me?
sad, that's what.
time for glee/so you think you can dance.
i mean homework.
i bet you know which one i'll choose. ;)

the night dedicated to being a pile.
hello.
the name's tressa. i like to consider myself one of a kind. that and beyonce.
anyways. consider yourself lucky to be reading these wonderful works of art.
ha.
so today was a good day.
1. i didn't have to drive 85 mph to arrive to band on time and i didn't freeze my bum off. and we ended up getting out 3 minutes early. we even ran the show today. whoop whoop.
2. hearing good girls go bad in the wee hours of the morning always puts me in a better mood.
3. i made all state chorus.
4. the awesome picture atones and i took for the bo photo contest. we're positive we will be getting stickers and signed posters any day.
5. custom made converse are officially ordered.
6. i already opened a christmas present (which was a BOdacious shirt. i know, you are jealous. i'm wearing it tomorrow. watch out.)
7. i had cheesy bread for supper.
8. no homowork tonight.
9. therefore, making this my first night officially dedicated to being a pile. i'm stoked.
so far, i'm not liking this though, because i have this urge to want to accomplish something, seeing as how it is 8 p.m. i decided to accomplish something that isn't really anything worth accomplishing: this blog.
ha. also, i have a feeling this will be a good substitution for facebook, which i've decided is nothing special anymore. the only thing worth getting on facebook for is to take ridiculous quizzes that have annoying spelling errors and incorrect results.
i forgot to add that today is also a good day because tomorrow is friday!
which means:
1. it's friday.
2. it's fpf.
3. it's friday.
4. no pep band.
the rest yet to come.
so. today, the bomb was dropped on me in honors 11. "tressa, sometimes i worry about you."
uhm. what? (note: this was said while highliting my left hand.)
there is nothing wrong with that. it is a cool sensation, i highly recommend it. and then. afterwards, it's a hoot to see people's reactions as you give them high 5's. sorry to all those scared today.
anyways. it was dear mrs. sittig that said this. later tonight, while hanging out with atones, she informs me that mrs. sittig told her, "man, that tressa sure is a talker."
WHAT?! i talk, but not that much! i'm stressing about this. conferences are next week and i have a feeling my mother will find out about this.
i also just found out that the website that i got all my "free ringtones" from isn't free anymore...
ohhhhhhhhhhno. this is bad news. very bad news.
but i refuse to end this on a bad note: my mother made cookies tonight for the band trip. i just had one, and i basically just came in my pants. for all those that may eat my mother's cookies this saturday, beware... >:)
