So tired...

this morning I had rehearsal from 9-1:30 PM for this concert the choirs are doing at church and so we had this really long rehearsal that involved lots of standing and folder holding (which now?  my left arm is sore) and lots of singing and now I just want to crawl into bed and sleep forever...

or at least until tomorrow (thank God; the first concert for tonight is over; all I have to get through is the two more tomorrow night).

And now I have songs from the concert stuck in my head, which really isn't all that pleasant because they keep on repeating themselves over and over and over.

The one thing I like is the cold here in southern California.  While we may not get snow (really) we do get frost in the morning if it's cold enough.  Which last Sunday there was frost on my car's windshield and I couldn't find the scraper to scrape it off so I used my hand to wipe away some of the ice.  Which, note to everyone: don't do it unless you want your hand really numb *was born and raised in southern California so never learned the proper way to scrape ice/snow off cars* well, I did learn, but I was in a hurry and thought, 'Screw it, I'll use my hand'.  Plus I couldn't find the scraper; apparently it was in my dad's car.  Well, now I know that for tomorrow morning.

But I like it in the mornings when there's frost on the grass and frost on the roof of the houses and it sort of looks like snow, without it being snow.

And I'm looking forward to wearing my scarves I've knitted; there's this one pretty green one I'm planning to wear tomorrow morning for church.  (Speaking of, apparently the musical for next year for spring is called Broadway Our Way and we're doing songs from Wicked and Les Miserables (still need to read that book...) and other musicals that have Christian messages/themes in them...where does Wicked have Christianity in it?  Or messages/themes of?...because I can't really think of any but I haven't listened to the entire soundtrack either so...)

And it's been raining something awful this past week; major storm, apparently, or something like that.  And I heard the news say it could rain on Christmas next week so, fingers crossed (hee, reminded myself of DHSAB).

Which, as for DHSAB, got my DVD already.  I thought it would ship here Monday (it originally said it would; only because I chose 1 day shipping versus two day; I got a DVD for my friend for Christmas and wanted it here before Christmas) but it got here early.  It came Thursday night, which was a horrible time (hah pun) for it to come, as I was leaving for choir practice when it did come.

Still haven't watched the DVD yet; although I've seen it a million times already so it can wait, but the special features/easter eggs!

My grades came in for fall semester.

Straight A's.

Oh yeah.

Seriously.  I thought I would get a B in pre-calculus.  So I saw an A and I was, 'Oh, look, an A in math.  Oh, look, lots of A's.  Oh, look, I actually got all A's for the first time in my life.  Yay?'

My mom was all bragging this morning to the people in choir.  It was funny, 'cause it's not that big a deal (to me at least---come on.  The classes were easy.  We were practically given the answers to the tests in sociology, there was open book tests in physical anthropology, there were take-home tests for archaeology.  The only classes I struggled with were math, mostly, and psychology.  And 17 units?  So not enough classes.  I like taking a lot of classes; sadly, the maximum is only 18 units) and everyone thought it was a big deal (to paraphrase my mom: "Seventeen units plus two choirs [at church] with all the rehearsals, singing all four Sundays in a month, and she got straight A's."  Yeah, really not that big a deal...)

(But come on, straight A's.  I've wanted to do that since high school, always have gotten close, with like a B in one or two classes, and now I achieve my goal in college.)(Which was what I wanted to achieve this semester; it all works out in the end.)

Tired now.  Sleep now...

but I'll go watch Dr. Horrible/play Fable 2 before I go to bed; I'm just so exhausted.

Re: my DHSAB icon.  So appropriate; he sort of looks sleepy in that icon and I'm all sleepy so...

And the other day I went to The Coffee Bean (I was going to get an ice blended mocha, but I was already cold from the rain and didn't need further coldness) and there were all these little stickers up (from people who decided to leave a message? who donated something, like money? *shrugs*) and I saw one that said R.I.P. Rollie Guerria(?) and it was so random and I saw it and I was all like, 'Oh hey, Rollie, I remember him'.  Last year he died in a car accident.  I wasn't really friends with him, but I, you know, recognized him...we were like acquantinces(?) more.  We were about the same age, I think I had a class with him in middle school, and I knew that he had died, but it's like I sort of forgot he had until I saw the message left for him.  And it was so random that I saw it.  And weird, because I could have not seen it but I did see it.  I hate how life works like that.

Okay, bed now.  Good night!
