wow.
it has been a long time since i've stayed up until six in the morning.
did that last night
or this morning
depending on how you look at it.
but it was a nice time. and i have a new teacup.
it has my initial on it. my Tina initial on it.
T on a teacup.
fantastic? i think yes.
this week:
ate tofu & seaweed for the first time. seaweed: pretty good. tofu: err... it was alright.
had a fantastic day at the art institute and then tripped on over to Lauren's house for a movie night, watching old shows. haha...
strike party [new teacup], staying up too late. saw the changeling, a good movie but so sad and miserable. not like "i'm going to cry" miserable, but more like "i'm going to go and jump off a bridge" miserable.
went thrifting. got some sweet things. i love thrifting!
had a dinner with my fellow. saw a play with my fellow.
am now sitting here and listening to mother and sister share their weekend stories.
what an exciting week!
music problem: solved.
i'll be dancing to "hoppípolla" by sigur rós [thanks to curt for this stroke of genius by suggesting sigur rós].
this is an excellent song. i have a week, i think, to choreograph.
1:02, folks. now is a good time for sleep time.

fifty.eight.
& now modern dance teacher tells me that i can't do a song with lyrics.
soooooo "mad world" be out.
shoot.
song suggestions? anyone?
must be just music/spoken word/nature sounds/music in a foreign language, etc...
i have several ideas to fall back on. at this point basically just a song from "The Hours" because Phillip Glass is an excellent composer.
yes. it should be fine.
here's something sad: sunday we had the last show for Narnia.
i did get a little misty-eyed as i saw weeks of work by so many hands come to a close. honestly, it really was just a remarkable experience with some pretty remarkable people.
and that's all i have to say about that.
in other news, i had spaghetti tonight and it was grand.
also, my mind runs constantly of late.
[this is not new, but this running comes and goes a bit.]
it runs with new plans for spring and moving and reading and not reading and music.
ho hum.
i found the joy that is pandora radio.
i basically wasted my day today. it was a day at home. i bummed around too much.
my hair might be a different color, who knows?
what if i took piano lessons again?

i think it's funny when people use an asterisk as a vowel in a four-letter word.
because that makes it so much better
& less like a four-letter word.
good one. way to keep it clean.
today i raked leaves for three hours. it started hailing and raining a little, that was fun.
usually i enjoy raking leaves
because there is the payoff of a huge pile to jump into afterwards.
however, the leaves were wet and sticky
and no longer smelled fantastic.
soooo... we didn't jump in the leaves.
we just raked them into neat piles on the side of the road.
our yard looks so barren now.
i lovelovelove days at home.
i cleaned my room! and halfway made my bed. and i found an old hat that i'd made [it's yellow]. and kit kittredge: story of an american girl is playing at precisely 8:00 on our television and i'm and just wriggling with excitement. also, i think we are having spaghetti for dinner, so it's just looking to be super fantastic. ALSO, i played the piano today, and wondered at why i ever quit because i really do enjoy it. i learned the first part of "mad world." i did. i might dance to that song for my modern dance final because it's just super to dance to.
although, now that i think of it, it's probably more fun to play the piano when i don't have to. that's probably why i quit. i just don't love it enough to be forced to play it.
i feel like a lot of people have been asking me lately what i'm going to do with my future.
i hate to disappoint, because i don't have any grand plans. just simple ones, ones that don't require a career and years and years of school and transferring and all of that.
i should start making things up.
