"Of course Jersey is better. We don't say HELLA."

I feel like everyone and their mother are blogging now.

Hey. Like sex, the more the merrier. :)

So...today was kind of a Star Wars day. I'm finding that my secret is becoming to large to be...a secret anymore. It's odd: the older I get, the more mature (...what?), the more I freaking love Star Wars.

THE CLONE WARS SEASON TWO PREMIERE IS THIS FRIDAY AT 8.

But I will be missing it. I will be in New York with Tutti...

It's worth it. ;) I'll find it online Saturday morning (be prepared, Kel).
My theatre teacher used two examples for tragic figures in well-known movies. Characters who sacrifice themselves for the greater good.

Theatre Teacher: "...What...what is that one line from Star Wars: A New Hope...where Vader and Obi-Wan are fighting and--"
Me: "'IF YOU STRIKE ME DOWN, I SHALL BECOME MORE POWERFUL THAN YOU COULD POSSIBLY IMAGINE!"
Theatre Teacher: *Blink...Blink* "Any Star Trek fans? What does Spock say as he's dying, his hand up against the glass and Kirk on the other side...?"
Me: *Slowest Blink Possibly* "Wait...weren't we talking about Star Wars?" *Tries to text Cherry from within Marc Jacobs bag but FAILS EPICALLY because there is apparently NO RECEPTION in the theatre*
Theatre Teacher: "'The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.'"

I do not know if this is true or not, what Mr. Spock said, considering it's what my theatre teacher declared but I'm sure some follow-up comments will set me straight.

I miss you all so much. No joke. It burns I miss you guys so much.
Why not just...comment on this post and tell me how you all are? Please? I'd love that. <3

BUT I did find a fellow Californian: her name's Natalie and she went to Saint Ignatius in San Francisco. We sit and talk about California together and make fun of Luke for being from Jersey.

Also, there's this UBER NERDY KID in my english class. Like, he has the semi-lisp and everything. We were partnered for a project. I misspelled a word and laughed saying, "Look at me! I wanna be a writer and I can hardly spell anything." Well after saying that the kid tilted his head...as if he were evaluating me. He said, "You want to be a writer? What kind?" I felt suddenly very vulnerable so I displayed a rather normal Fiona-stance and narrowed my eyes, smirking somewhat, "Fantasy, Science Fiction. Maybe some mystery and spy thrillers." The kid nodded, took off his glasses like some aged professor/mentor and began CLEANING THEM in that haughty fashion that tenure professors do at Trinity College, when they're talking down to a lowly undergraduate student who dreams of winning a Pulitzer Prize. "Oh really? I have three books of poetry out. What's your name?" Now, I'm not typically an incredibly jealous person (...no comment...) but...when a 19-year-old BOY is sitting in front of me, someone I am PRETTIER THAN (sorry, did that sound conceited?), talking about his three published collections of poetry, I tend to get a bit irritated. And envious.

It's my fault though. I need to jump on my writing.

But it gets better:
Kid: "Do you need references? I can give you a good list of publishers who respect my opinion. Gimmie some of your stuff and I'll put in a good word. They totally trust me."
Now, I totally appreciated the gesture and I know he was trying to be nice but in my already envious state, it just sounded stuffy and elitist. Whatever. He writes poetry. It's like cheating. Try and write a novel next time. (Not that I hate poetry. I don't. I actually love it but...You have to understand, I was very upset at the moment, lol).

Quote of the Day?
Alex: "I need, like, a full body Ugg. Just one giant Ugg. Something like a snuggie but an Ugg..."
Me: "...An Uggie?"

PS: Humor me. He voices Obi-Wan Kenobi on the Clone Wars. He's a freaking beast and....*girlish squeal* adorable.
