One of THOSE kinds of Days.

Now, before you go thinking, oh jeez, what happened now, it has been one of THOSE days not one of those days. Note the positive emphasis of the caps vs the negative emphasis of the italics. As in, today has been an awwwwesome day. :P

So it started at 8 am when i was just crawling out of bed to get ready for my riding lesson. i was fretting about only having an hour after class to perfect my 15% of final mark bio lab that i didn't complete over the reading week (my own fault, i know). but then, juuuuust as i was about to crawl out of bed, my phone buzzes. Guess who??? Its kevin, saying that he's really sorry, but he has to cancel my lesson this morning. My thoughts? HELLZ YA!!!! not only do i get t sleep in for another 2 hours, i also get an additional hour and a bit (after i sleep in) to finish my lab!!! :D

So round abouts 11:00 pm, i am finished my lab and now waiting till i have to leave for class at 12. So with nothing better to do, i decide to put a little extra effort into my appearance today. The result? Total awesomeness.

So i head off to class feeling pretty kick-ass. I was strutting my stuff with my shades and my sweet outfit. I totally felt like a movie star. And you know what they say about how if you feel like you look good, than other people feed off your swagger, and you actually look good? Totally right. :P I got many appreciative glances today from some fairly attractive lads. ;P

After class, i skipped off to the bio room to hand in my lab, and who do i happen to meet in the hallway, but Brett! Small world, no? So we chat for a while, discuss labs and then head off on our merry ways, me feeling significantly more buoyant than before, and that's saying something.

Which leads me to this moment in time, sitting in my enviro class, banished to the opposite side of the room than i usually sit at due to the prof's ridiculous rule of if you want to take notes on your laptop, you must sit on the left side of the room to "respect those who wish to take notes the 'old fashioned' way." Lame? yes. He's my only prof who does that.

So even though the day is not quite over yet, i think its been a pretty darn good one all around. :)

Now, on to the wickedness that was Wicked. If i have one thing to say about it, its that it was wicked. Like, wickedly wickedness with wobbly wicked bits sticking out of it. ummm, maybe that went a little too far, but you get the point that this play was awesome (a synonym for wicked.) :P

I was a little apprehensive at first because when i opened my program, it said that the 'stand-by' was to be playing the part of elphaba, rather than the main actor person. (Dawn, as our resident theatre junky, what exactly is a 'stand-by'? its not a synonym for understudy, because there were also understudies listed for elphaba...)

Anyways, it turned out that we had nothing to worry about because the woman was fabulous. I'm so serious, she was like, completely flawless. You could even say that she was wicked. Haha, ok i'm done with that now. sorry.

My favorite number by far was Defying Gravity (in all it's belting out high notes, flying into the air, flashing lights glory) but Popular was a close second. The lady who was Galinda was also soooooooo good. Lol, her shoe obsession, hair-flipping, flirty performance was spot on. :D

Anyways, so thats basically the entirety of my play review. Dina, if you have anything to add to it, you are certianly most welcome to.

And lookey-here, i'm stiiiillll not done my enviro lecture... ugh. I guess that means that should keep typing... this has to be my longest post ever. hmmm, what else can i talk to you guys about? There's a girl a couple rows ahead of me doing a crossword puzzle. she's got the right idea... OOOh, there is a girl beside her who has Natasha Hair!!!! I really want to touch it now. But i feel like that might be a little inappropriate. Actually, i think i've seen her before... In chemistry lcture maybe? that class is so huge, its entirely possible.

Speaking of chem, i still need to do my lab for friday. F. ughhhhh, i'm slowly losing my happy feeling. Blech. maybe i should stop thinking now... :(

Yayyy, we're watching a video narrated by Brad Pitt. :D Enviro just got a little more bearable. Its called "Portland: A Sense of Place". Its 22 minutes long and will take us to the end of class. Yesssss! :P ok, i'm going to sign off now and settle into the 'dreaminess that is brad pitt' (my prof's words, not mine).

Love you all, and can't wait to see you soon, whenever that may be!!

p.s.
