Dear Mr. Homicz,

If you can read this, kindly

GET THE HELL AWAY FROM MY "BLOG" AND GO GET A LIFE.



Seriously. Stop freaking out random teenage girls for no apparent reason and go find something productive to do. Like finishing our drill.




Sincerely,



Sarah

IT'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

why is there so much that i want to say that i can't find the words for? why is there so much angst and pain in the world? why is high school so stressing? why is life so stressing? why does life have to be so hard? why can't i seem to stay happy for more than ten minutes nowadays? why i am constantly fighting with my friends? why is it that i fail the tests i study for and ace the ones i don't? why is it that i have this constant feeling of guilt even though i'm not conscious of doing anything wrong? why is it that there's never enough time for anything? why is it that i feel like i'm missing out on the most important part of my life? why does it feel like no one's ever there when i need them? why does it feel like i'm on the outside looking in? why is it that i always feel exhausted? why is it that i never seem to be able to get the things i want the most badly?

i feel siiiiiiiick.

Please, i'm not asking much more than thirty seconds (a minute for those of you who can't make decisions) from you, but please respond. I don't care who you are or how i know you, just please comment with your favorite song and / or artist and / or album. I need it for something, i'm dead serious, and I would really appreciate it. So tell me your favorite song, dammit!









♥ thanks...






P.S. I just downloaded "Don't Download This Song." It made me laugh at the irony at how many OTHER people downloaded / will download "Don't Download This Song," but then I felt guilty and planned my stealth-steal of Matt's copy of Straight Outta Lynwood. So I'll at least have a legal copy, just for kicks.





Only geeks buy CD's.

and another one...








for your enjoyment long after the frostbite on your fingers has healed and you can't remember your thirteenth set...

Hope this works.........go to YouTube to see more videos!


P.S. 2 more days until Democrats take Congress!!!! WHOOOHOOO!

Last night = best night of TV in a while. Two quotes that sum up my day / night:


1. "These are not my shoes."

2. "McDreamy was doing the McNasty with McHottie? That McBastard!"


So there you have it. BEST QUOTES EV-ER. Well, maybe not. But darn close.


I hurt. Like seriously in pain hurting. My shoulders and back hurt to move, and it hurts to breathe - my ribs are sore. And i've noticed that when I'm really tired, like I was / am, i get a really bad headache on the left side of my head that KILLLLLLLLLLS. And I couldn't get to sleep last night because my mom asked me YESTERDAY AFTERNOON about the guy who does the weather on NBC 10 news at 5 - not Glenn Schwartz, not Dave Warren, but "the cute one with the dark hair who does the weather in people's backyards?". So of course I couldn't think of it. So last night I finally finished all my work at 11:30, and I turned out my light and was lying in bed going, "why the hell can't i get to sleep? i'm exhausted, but I'm not sleeping? What the ****?" and then I laid there for like 10 minutes and at 11:45 (i remember looking at the clock) I was ALMOST asleep when all of a sudden i was totally awake and I said outloud, "DOUG KAMMERER!" it was sooooo crazy. so i got up to go tell my mom but she was asleep, so i went back to bed and thirty seconds later I was dead asleep. Funny how the brain works, isn't it?

MS. NEWHART IS MY FAVORITE TEACHER EVER. She's soooooo hilarious! Just the fact that you completely do not expect her to have a sense of humour makes it even more hilarious when she does. Ask me about the Andrew story. I'm too tired to type it here, but ask me later when i'm naaaiice and hyper. It was amazing. I thought I would pee myself.

Yay! Only 2 B's. This = muy bien.


I was actually planning to write this entry entirely in spanish, but it takes waay too much brain power. So I will leave you with this instead.


Te amo muchas! Eres mi persona favorita y me amo hablar con tu. Creo que debes ser mi mejor amigo/a. Y a ti? Debes que morir.


just kidding. that was stupid. whatever.

there's so much that i need to say but i have to do a dwp and i'm really stressed and i just got a really even more stressing call.


i think i need some new friends.

just kidding (sort of.)

So here is my partial collection of favorite all-time Office quotes...i have written them all on orange Post-its and move them around my expo board when I am bored. This is not the complete list, mind you, only a sampling of my favorites, in preparation for this week's episode, which will be Hilari-AWESOME. I couldn't decide whether to quote them out of context or give you the full story, but I decided...Let's play match the quote to the episode! Go for it, people. You got this. It's pretty easy, actually.


1. "Honestly. I love stealing things."

2. "Yeah, they're like mini-briefcases."

3. "I wonder if his roommate knows."

4. "If you are a racist, I will attack you with the North."

5. "I will be the prettiest girl at the ball!"

6. "Go get yourself a monkey kidney."

7. "You should put him in custard-y."

8. "Let's try Brookstone."

9. "Would you like to buy some googi googi?"

10. "There'd be no way of knowing."



A. Jim, in mocking Dwight trying on purses in "Hot Girl."
B. Michael, watching Oscar get into a car and drive off in "Gay Witch Hunt."
C. Creed, in a quite random scene detailing his...actions...in the 60's in "Gay Witch Hunt."
D. Ryan, after Jim puts Dwight's stapler in Jell-O in "Pilot."
E. Jim, when trying to convince Dwight to buy a purse from Katie in "Hot Girl."
F. Michael, when his office workers "betray" him in "Hate Crime."
G. Dwight, when searching for "Gay-Dar" online in "Gay Witch Hunt."
H. Michael, in showing his anti-racist side in "Diversity Day."
I. Creed, when showing a certain talent during "Casino Night."
J. Michael, pretending to be Indian in "Diversity Day."

Jeff, I think you in particular will appreciate this one.

Go here now!!!

It's so freaking awesome. I can't wait for his next album to come out. I wonder what it's called...should be interesting.


P.S. Happy Birthday to me!

i have decided that my last entry was waaaay too long. therefore, this one shall be short.

there is nothing on tv tonight, save for one Lost clipshow and the one tree hill episode i'm supposed to tape for amanda. which reminds me...i should go do that.


is that better, everyone?

i can't believe in less than ten hours we will be marching down to candlebrook for the start of band camp 2006.

and i can't believe steven copp isn't joining.

and i can't believe i forgot to practice today.

Did you hear about Washam's grand idea scheme? Did you? DID YOU?!?!?!?!?!?!



Well, I did. And I'm quite bemused right now.



Apparently during "solo sections" the entire band is going to go cower behind the pyramid and the "soloists" will stand ALL ALONE in front of the pyramid.



To that I say, quite calmly, NO F****NG WAY!!!!!!!!



No way. I am not standing all by myself in front of a pyramid so everyone can watch me and the band can giggle hidden. I want to be behind the pyramid with everyone else! Not cool! No. So I'm telling Homicz that he is writing Lacey or Megan in next to me. For moral support. Either that or I'll direct for the ten bars or whatever it is and Johnny will make an exciting guest appearance. I'll play the solo, whatever, but I'm not doing it all alone.




Well, I guess I am. I don't have a choice, do I?



Whatevs. All I can say is this year is going to be weird. And kind of annoying.


On a brighter note, we are going to the shore next week! Very, very excited to get some tanning in. And some shopping. And catch up with the grandparents, who come down for part of the week each. Must start packing soon. I have noo idea what I'm going to take. I bought a pair of very cute bermuda capri things today but they definitely don't fit at all. So debating whether to take a chance and exchange them or to just forget them. But they are very, very cute. So we'll see.

*sigh.* Must also finish Odyssey before vacationing. Have two new magazines, so i definitely won't want to read it down there. Even though I'm going to have to read my Kozol book. *Siiiiiiiiiiiiigh*


I need coffee. That's what I need.

In Spanish:

En Upper Merion, nosotros siempre respetamos todo en el mundo.

I love translators. They make me laugh.

so i have lots of stuff to tell you!!!!

okay. so like a couple of weeks ago was my paternal granparents' 50th anniversary party. extremely cute. so we go and the second i get out of the car my other grandmom (pumpkin seats grandmom, megan!!!) like jumps on me and goes, your aunt wants you. and i'm like, okay, what's going on? so after repeating the words "i'm so confused" like five thousand times she leads me to a closet where my aunt and my two cousins and my sort-of cousins (they're my cousins' cousins. so, blood lines aside, we're related.) are stuffed in there and they hand me a sheet and they're like, sing. so it's this uber-cute song that we're singing for my grandparents...very adorable. so we sing and i'm like, "yeeeeahhh. 0okay." and it was fun. then we went in the room and then i see these teenagers across the room, four of them - three guys and a girl, randomly standing there. and i'm like, okay, who are you? turns out i have second cousins i never knew about...though, as my grandmom says, "you've met them before! they were there at your christening!" Okay. Like I'm going to remember that. So there's Donny, Hank, Greg, and Melanie. And they all have piercings and I'm pretty sure they all smoke. I didn't talk to them. But it was interesting to know that I have relatives I've never met.

And my daddy gave the toast, and it was the CUTEST THING I'VE EVER SEEN!!!! He was all stuttering and he was like, "I'm nervous" and he was sweating and it was sooo cute and sooo funny and everyone's like, "I didn't know John had a sense of humor!!!" And I'm like, "well then you've never had dinner at our house..."

And I (might) be going to a wedding! But that's all dysfunctional-twisted family stuff, so I'm not even going to begin to try to explain the chaos to you. Needless to say, this summer shall be quite interesting. I love gossip.

Mr. Crooks was sooo evil that day in humanities after the architecture presentations. I felt soo bad for those groups. Boooooooo. Though he did kind of reconcile himself by asking French Revolution questions that I knew...John Locke and Jean Jacques Rousseau!!! I'm such a little genius. Not.

Okay. so I still really want to go see Da Vinci Code, plus I wanna see x3, pirates, and the break-up. Someone's coming to the movies with me. Though x3 is probably just going to be our little bio group (me, lorn, rabadab, and kehr.) - (don't ask.) but you can come along maybe.

I AM OFFICIALLY IN LOVE WITH HENRY IAN CUSICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He's such a good actor, not to mention the fact that he's bloody gorgeous. Plus I love his accent, even if I can't quite understand all of what he's saying. he is possibly the hottest drunk on tv.

(Ah hahve to get mah honohr bahck)

*giggling*

So yeah. The season finale of Lost was pretty bloody brilliant (Why am I being so british all of a sudden?). DESMOND CRASHED THE PLANE!!!!! Though, in all fairness, it wasn't quite his fault. And we never did learn what was up with that creepy Crooks-ish dude Kelvin. But whatever. I'm just still worked up about

HUGH MCINTYRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

I seriously need a life.

But yeah. Am currently counting down the days till season 3. No one ever said you can't be addicted to television.

Yay Taylor winning AI!!!!!!!!! I turned it on at exactly 9:58. Excellent timing, Sarah.

Concert was meh. If Ever truly sucked. So did God Bless The Child. But then again, I could have told you that beforehand.

The Concert under the crappy auditorium ceiling was pretty good. haha, we played lots of songs that we haven't practiced in forev-er. and we pulled out prelude (to a kiss) and washam was like, do we remember this? and tal was like, "no." which was simultaneously funny and annoying, because a, he knows we do, and b, (sigh) we all know that tal is amazing. blahblahblahblah.

i walked into a door after swimming. it hurt.

bobo scratched me and now amanda won't let me listen to her ipod....boooooooooo.

OHMYGOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!!

WE GOT A NEW TV!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it's an lcd plasma hd tv. actually, it's a sony bravia. but who's checking? And we get seven different christian channels, including such favorites as FaithTalk, The Worship Channel, and The Church Channel. Oh joy unbounded.
But, on the plus side, it is the most gorgeous tv ever and i absolutely loooove it. And my new favorite channel is 17.2, which is The Tube. it's like mtv only waaaay cooler because it's just music videos and concert footage, and it's amazingly awesome because there are no commercials, and they play awesome stuff, such as...

Billy Joel - Piano Man
Led Zeppelin - Rock N Roll
George Thorogood - Bad to the Bone
James Blunt - You're Beautiful
Modest Mouse - Ocean Breathes Salty
Chicago - Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?
John Mayer - Your Body Is A Wonderland
Jason Mraz - You And I Both
The Police - Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic
Gavin DeGraw - Chariot
Aerosmith - Dude Looks Like A Lady

and lots of other stuff, like Prince and Dido and Talking Heads and Duran Duran...

it is by far my favoritest channel ever. so you have to come watch our new tv. it's soooooooooo pretty! we watched the phillies game last night in high def...soooo pretty!

anyway, yeah.

in case i haven't already told you personally, "you're beautiful" is possibly the worst song ever written and james blunt is possibly the worst singer ever known to man. he sounds like a drag queen on helium and some other drugs as well. i watched the vid yesterday and was like, "what the hell?" he like strips in front of the camera and then takes off his shoes (wtf?) and the stuff out of his pockets and very, very neatly lines them up in front of him (james blunt is ocd. which is quite frightening) then randomly jumps into the ocean, all while it's snowing. and he's sitting there in the "snow" in just pants and no shoes, and it was the strangest thing i've ever seen.

james blunt is a disgrace to the awesome population of brits.


I LOVE HENRY IAN CUSICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



so that's about it really.

p.s. henry ian cusick plays desmond on lost. i'm not that crazy. imdb him.

it's getting time for my (not-so) annual list of my favorite people!!!

you all must sign my yearbook. it'll be good.

oh, by the way. we just got verizon dsl, and i need to choose a new email address, and i don't know what i want it as. "saxamafone102" is pretty juvenile, and "lillypop" is from when i was about six and I thought I was a frog named Lilly. Adorable, right?

So comment with your suggestions. I'm open for anything.
I was kind of thinking "sarahsmile" because, a, it's ironic, and b, it's my iSketch name because I didn't want to frighten anyone, and c, my mom likes that song.

but anyway, comment, por favor.

someone needs to help me study for humanities+bio+math and not blow me off or offer "maybe. i don't know"'s instead of real answers. i seriously need help and i'm not just going to fool around! HELPPPPP!.

so i definitely don't have time to write an entry right now, so here's the things i want to write about

my new relatives!
mr. crooks fury
movies i wanna see
lost yay!
season finales
concert
walking into doors
amanda's ipod / bobo

megan: joel wanted to know what we were doing the weekend after next...i was like "i don't even know what i'm doing tomorrow..."...but he said he wanted to do something. mall? food type place? movies? dunno...............

this is me mourning the loss of ana lucia and libby. may they rest in peace. and i don't care what damon lindelof says, there's no getting around the fact that they were both convicted of dui's lately. and everyone says michelle rodriguez is pretty bitchy anyway. but now we're down to only three women...sun, kate, and claire. unless you count rose and danielle, which no one ever will. but still. they should be more feministic.

i think they should turn the whole thing into a davinci code style doobie, with sacred feminine stuff and everything. that would be awesome.

p.s. part 2 of the official lost arg:
http://www.sublymonal.com

i'm sooo psyched. actually, it's pretty creepy. because lost is like that. but i'm glad jj's back and able to devote time to his best project ev-er.

i've decided my ultimate dream job is to be a survivor engineer. that would be absolutely amazing. hm. wonder if they do internships.

survivor finale tonight, by the way. watch it!

love, sarah

so white out day wasn't nearly as exciting as i thought it would be. maybe it was the fact that everyone knew what was going on so it wasn't really a secret, and a bunch of dead people talked anyway. though it was quite awful not being able to talk to megan or lena all day...so i just talked to amanda and divya instead. and signed (sort of) to megan. that was fun...

ahhhh!!!! all of my television is ending!!!! tonight's season finale of the office, which i'm currently missing...plus all of my fav reality shows are down to three or four. so here's my bets / favs for them...

Amazing Race 9: (best season ever) B.J. and Tyler!!!! Or I could settle for Ray and Yolanda, because they're loosely allied with B.J. and Tyler. As long as it's not the frats (Eric and Jeremy), I'm fairly happy. But Eric and Jeremy have learned their lesson about karma ("Looks like karma came back and bit us in the ass"), so half-props. They still piss me off, though.

American Idol: TAYLOR!!! I was rooting for Chris too, but now I want Taylor to win. I don't really like Elliot's voice, and Katharine is a little too girly for my taste.

Apprentice: Hmm. I don't really like any of them anymore. I guess I'd have to say Sean. Just because he's British. And he makes me laugh. And he has the most amazing shoes / eyes ever.

Survivor: This one's reeeeeeeeeally hard. Especially after tonight's freaking "to be continued" (after which I shouted "I hate you Mark Burnett!!!!!") episode, I'm 5/8 rooting for Cirie, 1/4 rooting for Terry, and 1/8 rooting for Danielle. I hate Aras.

Is that it? I think that's it. Going to watch TV now.


Ta-ta.

So. I just updated my quotes and here's the current count:

Lacey and I: 6
Lacey: 7
Stephany L.: 1
Broadway People: 12
Random People and I: 5
Jeff: 1
Me: 3
Random Stupid People: 2
Random Semi-Intelligent People: 6
TV / Movie Quotes: 6
The Wisdom of our Teachers: 6
Friends (+ Me): 5
Kaushik: 1
Family: 6

So according to my calculations, that totals 30+10+20+13=73 fantastic quotes. Yay.

P.S. Yay for changing layouts.
