let's go tanning?

my prom dress has yet to make an appearance.
prom is exactly 18 days away. hopefully no alterations are needed.
that is, if it even comes.

over the past week and a half, my stomach has been doing weird things. i can't eat anything without getting a stomachache afterwards. and then it gets extremely bloated. for every single meal, this is how it's been. my mom thinks it might be just a case of nausea, but i don't know. i'm thinking i'm in need of a doctor visit.

today in honors, i sat down in my chair and fell off. then bumped my noggin on the chair next to me. i have a bump on my head. haha, not my most impressive story but whatevs.

also, it excites me greatly to be watching tv and see new episodes of afv. i've seen all the episodes multiple times. i'm planning on sending in a video, as soon as i get a funny one some how. hmm...

quarter 4 has officially started.
it was 75 degrees today.
i wore sandals for the first time last week.
i painted my toe nails.
--it's spring time, that's for sure :)

and i almost forgot! i went tanning for the first time yesterday.
as terrible as it is for you, it was awesome.
i went with my good ol' friend mirds. she had never gone tanning either.
so we went to YRB and had this extremely tan girl show us how to work the beds.
it's easy:
1. get nakes/put lotion on within the 5 min prep timer.
-i had this sparkling, yummy smelling lotion. i love it.
2. put on tantoo sticker, if wanted.
-i did the classic heart one.
3. set radio.
-i forgot to do this, i had more important things to think about.
4. push blue button, then climb on in.
-i climbed in, but then i figured the top would automatically come down. not.
5. put glasses on.
-i had glasses without string, so i could see outta the corner of my eyes. i was afraid my eyeballs would burn off, so i kept them shut the entire time.

apparently that's all you have to do. but i was worried i forgot to set a timer or something, so i counted the entire time i was in there for 6 minutes. i got to 4 mins and 30 secs then the bed shut off. i figure i counted to slow. haha.

anyways. i felt fan-freakin'-tastic afterwards. why did i not go tan like once this winter?! i felt like i was on a beach or something. and you can already see my tantoo. yippee.

oh, and don't worry, i'm not going to become a tan bed addict. i promise. it's just to break through my iridescent whiteness for prom.

off to go screw around some more.
and by that i mean creep on facebook. haha.

what's funny?

prepare yourselves for an epic post!

k, so bo finally! came.
it. was. awesome.
words can't even describe how awesome march 17, 2010 was.
anyways his show was hilarious.
but the best part was when he started to play "i'm bo yo." and i leaned over to ali and said yes! really loud. (we were in the front row. win.) bo stopped playing, looked at me and said
"but you know, all the chords to my songs are all the same, so how do you know what song i'm going to sing?" and then broke out into single ladies.
for all of you that don't know, I LOVE BEYONCE.
it was like a dream come true.
afterwards we waited around hoping bo might come out.
turns out, he did!
we walked over and introduced us as the "girls off of youtube. you told us we ruled" ect. ect.
then asked if he got the bo knows shirt we sent him.
he did.
then he signed my shirt and i got a picture with him.
my life's been completed, in other words.

here's the lovely pic of all of us in our kick ass shirts and bo towering over us.


and another update from my last post, i did indeed find a prom date. mrs. sittig won't have to feel bad. haha.

also, then weather has been superb up here. (minus today, haha.)
i can't wait for summer.

countdowns:
19 days til opening night of peter pan.
70ish days til summer.
YES YES YES YES YES.

untitled.

:(

"who can touch t-lilly the most?"

'ello.

extremely tiresome week. but guess what? we have a late start tomorrow! and not one due to weather! this is the best news i've gotten in a long while.

while on the subject of weather, i feel it important to note that march did indeed come in "like a lamb." it's been +35 degrees this entire week! which, sadly, means it will go out "like a lion." or in other words, a snow storm. fml.
let's see if this word of wisdom holds true...

tuesday night i went to a physics extra credit movie. we watched finding nemo. how does finding nemo relate to physics, you ask? don't ask me. haha. anyways. it was fun. we pushed the desks up against the lab tables and brought pillows and blankets and tons of candy. and then laughed at completely not funny portions of the movie. yay for mature people. ;) i ended up falling asleep in the end.

lately, i've been working on the "habenera" from the opera carmen for my chorus solo. turns out, french kicks my butt. solo contest is in exactly 11 days. and i have yet to memorize. crap crap crap.

also. it appears to me that i have fallen in love with a 9 year old, caden.
ok, not really. but he is so gosh darn cute. he's one of the lost boys in peter pan, and he reminded me of a caucasian version of russell. (you know, off of up?) k, well, i love russell. therefore, i love caden. but whenever i see him and say, "hi caden!" he gives me a dirty look and runs away. it's true love i tell you. haha. actually i hear he's quite the little bully. my friend julia's little brother, mason, told me caden beats him up. que asco. :(

speaking of peter pan, today i was sitting in the auditorium next to bridget and melissa waiting for our scenes, when i suddenly feel a poke. i turn around and see this little boy scurrying away from me. little whykus leans forward and tells me the lost boys have created a game of "who can touch t-lilly the most." just my luck. so i now have little kids constantly trying to poke me.

and you know whats not kicking my butt now? physics! i got an -a on my test yesterday! wahoo!

countdowns:
13 days till bo.
89 days (including weekends) until school is out.
life's not too bad after all, i guess. :)

wait. i just remembed tomorrow is friday. and friday is the day i was planning on asking someone to prom.... shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit.
another story: today in honors, mrs. sittig was getting ready to explain something so she started saying "boys..." then paused. i filled the pause by making the most credible gagging noise ever, to which some people started laughing at. but to my horror, mrs. sittig turns to me and says, "now tressa! do you even have a prom date?"
*cue tressa's cheeks to turn bright red.*
i shake my head. she looks back at me and says, "ohhh! well. you're pretty! ha ha..."
*and then under her breath she adds*
"man oh man, i'm going to feel awful if you don't get a date."
great. please wish me luck.

anyways. i'm going to go register for the april ACT, order my prom dress, and order some new dance clothes. then read my new seventeen. just my kind of night.

is there such a thing as junioritis?

i'm blogging 2 days in a row. this will probably never happen again.

anyways. i woke up to my alarm completely sweaty. because i had an awful dream. i was being chased by bears off a cliff. it was way more scary than it sounds. haha.
after that i zipped off to church to sing songs with little kids. this turned out to be awful, because my friend miranda was at her grandma's. which meant no guitar. which meant crazy kids. which meant tressa went darn near insane. but don't worry, i didn't go insane. i instead went to church and saw the cutest darn baby there ever was. he was chubby and had spiky hair. and his name was rigley. now, i understand that he's not gonna like his parents when he gets to his 40's and his name is rigley, but my gosh. HE WAS SO ADORABLE.

i also went sledding this afternoon. win.
and my sister spelt GAY in the snow. you could read it from the highway. funny.

so tonight i got a weird craving for frooties. you know, fruit flavored tootsie rolls, except better? yeah, so i went to hyvee to the candy aisle to find my little treasures and what happens?
no frooties.
piss.
so i just purchased a big bag of blow pops, 2 heath bars, and a york patty. can't go wrong there i guess.

also, i've caught senioritis. and i'm not a senior. i can only imagine how lazy i'll be when i am a senior. oh great.

in my last post, i stated how i have yet to find a prom date.
sometimes, i wish i was already famous, because famous people always get what they want. then i would be able to get a prom date and the dress of my dreams.
oh well...

i'll just tell the wonderful story of how i found my prom dress:

actually, i won't.
but here's a picture!

good news.

hello boys and girls.

i woke up this morning feeling fantastic. which is funny, considering i got zip sleep last night.

i've got a huuuuge list of good news. brace yourselves:

-we got a superior and ensemble awards at one acts. and the judges told me i did a wonderful job.
-i went skiing in the black hills and only ate snow once! yay!
-peter pan auditions have come and gone. i got tiger lilly. i'm definitely pumped.
-i'm finally all caught up in all my school work.
-i've learned all the french to the habenera. my chorus solo piece. yikes. haha.
-i've had zip homework for the past 5 days. win.
-i was in the talent show last night. i did a dance routine, and didn't fall on my face.
-i found a prom dress. however, not a prom date...

anyways. i just thought i'd spread my cheery mood around the blogger community.

a further note:
bo comes in exactly 19 days. yes yes yes.

yet another snow day.

thank the lord for snow days. i would have died today, had there not been one.

let me explain why.

1. i had a "five" day weekend. haha, well not really. but really. it was semester tests thursday and friday, and i was exempt from taking them. (although i did take honors, just to boost my grade a bit) except heres the thing. i woke up 7:15 am thursday morning to fit in enough time to study for honors before my bang trim at 12, and then play practice at 2. i also needed to get in to my honors teacher to ask questions. and then friday morning i had play practice at 6:30 in the am! it was ridiculous! but it's ok, because the wife and i got fpf (also known as heaven) and then jammed to beyonce before going into the pac. after that i took the honors final. which i found out after taking it that my grade would have been fine, without taking it. great. oh well, i got an a minus, so it just improved my grade by that much. yay. but by then, my sugar high had worn off from fpf, and i hit the wall with sooo much tiredness. i then slept for a good hour and a half, when atones called me, wanting to know if i'd watch fame with her. it was awesome! (ps, asher book. ooofta.) after she left, i slept some more, then hung out with mirds that night. we did nothing but go to taco bell and sit around. it's what i like to call a good friday night. :)

so with those 2 days combined on 0 sleep due to waking up earlier than i do for school, i was a wee bit tired.

2. saturday, i woke up around 545-6 am to go feed god's starving children. basically the four hour bus ride consisted of me putting in my earphones and sleeping in an uncomfortable position, which made my butt constantly fall asleep. ouch. after a good 5 hours of standing on my feet, we then hit up moa for some power shopping. my favorite part was urban outfitters. soooo many attractive workers there. mm. haha. anyways, i purchased a cardigan with a rose pattern on it. i like it. after shopping we went ice skating at the depot. it was a blast. i miss ice skating. but anyways, from all the standing, walking, and ice skating, my feet were dying. seriously. we left around 1045, but because i was so overly tired and uncomfortable, it was almost impossible for me to fall asleep. so when we got home around 3, i sped on home to jump in to my wonderful bed. i slept soundly until 845, when i had to get up to go to the church. afterwards, i came home ate then packed for the road trip to sdsu to visit my unbiological smokin' hot non lesbian older sister! wooot!

3. so sunday was good once i got up to sdsu, besides the fact that i didn't go to bed until almost 3. oops. and considering i only slept in until 930, you could say i was dragging wagon. we ate at perkins, which was sooo freakin' good. i wanted to sleep for the rest of my life afterwards, and not drive back to brandon for play practice.. but i did. it wasn't too bad.

anyways. i woke up tuesday morning for 6:30 play practice again feeling like i hadn't slept in forever. which is an almost true statement. haha.

so point of this long as butt story is, i'm glad today was a snow day, because then i can devote to sleeping alllllll dayyyy longggg. well, that and blogging. and watching movies.
haha, i'm currently watching house bunny. is it sad to say it's one of my new favorite stupid movies? just a bit.

i smell corned beef hash. s'later.
