w00t!

Yay! I got a letter from Dartmouth College Office of Admissions today. There was an awesome brochure included with the letter. It describes the campus life, how there's one of the best student to faculty ratios, and the research library (5 million books .. ya think I can read them all?) All the more reason for me to attend Dartmouth.

Taylor Won

Hands down.

I was scared at first that they were going to have the disease win (get it?? Fever?? Haha. Okay no.) Anyways. But Taylor so totally rocked that show.

And poor Kat knew it, too.

Singing Over The Rainbow .. again? Uhm. How about no?

But Taylor. Woot! And he showed my dad that he rocks, too. Because my dad didn't like him. But ha to dad!

Yeah. So anyways. I tried to get through on the phone lines but it didn't work. So I just text message my vote. Hopefully I'll get through later.

Anyways. Wonderful show. Would've been better if it had been Chris rather than Kat, but hey, you can't get everything in life.

CSS

So today my dad showed me a CSS book that he bought me. (Teach Yourself CSS in 10 Minutes) It was pretty awesome, and I spent a few hours putting a simple page together. Of course, I have a ton to learn, because as of now I can only put borders and padding and all that stuff. Still cool, just kinding still under the rock.

As it turns out, my MySpace (Yes .. I have a MySpace .. lol) coding was CSS, so I was already kinda familiiar with it. But the book put a few things together that made no sense to me before .. Like why in the world we use it.

Oh, and dad showed me how to use Visual Basic, so that's what I was playing around with. It's actually pretty neat, but it took us a while to figure out how to connect the HTML page and the CSS one. But we did it. Yay.

(Random note .. : Singing in the Rain is on! Yay for Moses and his Roses. Hehe.)

Into The Woods .. again

So we had house again this weekend. Tons of people came closing night .. it was awesome!

I also got to watch it this time. It was pretty awesome, actually. Better than Noises Off, that's for sure. Maybe that's just because Beth was in it .. maybe not. But still, I loved it.

Sadly, my English teacher wouldn't let me turn in the critique I wrote on it because "We already saw it in class". Yeah, well my critique wasn't on the story, it was critiqing their performance .. go figure, lol.

House

Soo this past weekend we had Opening Night for our Spring Play - Into The Woods, which I posted about earlier.

It went pretty well - Opening Night we had 112 people, and on Saturday we had a little over 80 people.

I heard that the sound system was kinda messed up (I haven't seen it yet though) but other than that it went pretty well for a high school production.

There were four girls on the house crew, and four guys. We thought it was kinda fun to get dressed up and everything .. okay that's a lie. It was killer to wear those heels for four hours. There had to wear black and white, and the guys wore suit-like thingies.

But still .. it was fun.

:)

Only this next weekend left and then we're done!
