Lonely
I miss my friends. This long weekend has got me blue.
I feel as though I only see Lily anymore walking through hallways as she says "Sarah [insert last name here]".
I feel as though I only see my BFF in mornings and afternoons when I pick her up and she takes me home.
I feel as though I only see kevbow on the internet; not nearly as fun.
I would call one of my friends, but I've been working on my short story, due Tuesday. How in the world will I make my creative representation? And I've just found out that my mother probably won't be home until after I'm asleep, so blues all around. Thank God I'm sleeping over my BFF's this Friday. I feel so disconnected from everyone right now.
Here's hoping that by Tuesday, I'll be finished with my short story and ready for a recharge of friends.

The Shows On TV Today...
hello again, my friend. Haven't visited in a while. my computer's a total mare. (mare : bitch :: female horse : female dog) yep.
The impending cancellation of Pushing Daisies has got me kinda blue. The show is the best. Why is it that America worships shows like Grey's Anatomy that glorifies people sleeping around on yet another show about doctors while intelligent shows like Pushing Daisies with a twist on some pre-existing genres and making up some new ones and creating something amazing. Its a romance, a comedy, a drama, a fantasy, a detective show, and many other things as well. It deserves more than a first season with 9 eps and a second season with 13. It deserves so much more. The actors are fantastic. The show has made me love Lee Pace so much. I have a friend who just started watching only to find out that it's on the way out. It makes me mad when this happens.
let's just see...
Shows that deserve to go so much more than PD:
Private Practice-we don't need two of those, and they're exactly the same--just to keep the hormonal girls happy, keep one--the original.
Prison Break-I don't know much about it, but as my good friend says, how many times can you break out of prison?
American Idol-I hate to say it, but you know its not all that anymore. No one's been too cool and awesome in a while. Who even won last time?...oh yeah. David Cook. Where's he now?
Dancing With The Stars-was that show ever anything good? no. That's because it's reality tv.
That Paris Hilton's New Best Friend Show
I Survived A Japanese Game Show
I Wanna Work For Diddy-all because they, again, are reality show crap.
Ya know? There's too many too list. Because there is crap on television. How I Met Your Mother, Pushing Daisies, The Office, Saturday Night Live, and Heroes (though it begins to annoy) are practically all I can tolerate anymore. Here's hoping you can tolerate more than I.

People Fascinate Me
I do believe it is true; I have spent the past few days learning of them. Wikipedia is my best friend. I don't believe everything is entirely non-factual. Clearly someone OCD would notice if something was incorrect. But that is not why I'm here.
Some of the most fascinating?
Marie Antoinette--do you know that she hardly had any influence on her husband, the king? That she had to marry him at the age of fourteen? That people didn't trust her merely because she was Austrian? Yes, she did live a lavish lifestyle there for a while--but she was young and, frankly, everyone was flipping at her because her husband would not sleep with her. Really. Can you entirely blame her? But she grew up. She became a mother. And she had to endure the death of her child. She was constantly the subject of rumors. After all the revolution deal with her family being put in prison she had to live for ten months as a widow before she, too, was tried for treason. The trial was pre-decided, but they went through with it anyway. Do you know they accused her of sexually abusing her own son? And the worst--they had coached him, her son, to say that this was true. Her protests were so emotional that women who stormed the palace couldn't help but take her side. And they killed her anyway.
Oscar Wilde--A gay writer when it was pretty much illegal to be so. [gay, not a writer...] need I say more?
Jimmy Stewart--Rated the third best actor of classic hollywood, his only fault being his major conservatism. He wrote poetry, loved his wife (believe me, nobody was quite faithful then), had a sense of humor, went into the army when he could have stayed home. I love him, and were he alive and a similar age to me, I would have given Gloria someone to be jealous of.
And many more...those are the currents, though. I bid adieu, for I tire of typing.

Addition
Math is never exciting...never. One could say I hate it. One could. Particularly geometry; shapes and angles and postulates and whatnot...it clearly isn't my thing. But addition...addition I don't mind.They always say that you have to remember you'll use math in your real life...in the future. Of course I don't believe that. Hardly. For what job will I need to calculate the measure of an angle? Engineer? I won't be an engineer; it does not seem in the cards pour moi. But addition is the only thing I can see myself using in the future...Take today for example. Today, I have a new addition to my family--today, my second cousin Stephen Micheal [last name withheld to protect the newborn] was born. How sad, for him, to have just missed Halloween! But he is here, now. He's come into one of the only good marriages in my family--my cousin and his wife. They're very much in love--thats the type of thing you say very much to. Just like someone is always "very much alive". (Have you noticed?)But that tangent is immaterial; the point is a baby has been born. I know, happens every day; but today you notice special things. You notice that a woman has become a great-grandmother; you notice that there hasn't been a little one since you were born; you notice that maybe life doesn't suck after all.Am I overly optimistic in this particular post? Cheesy? Sentimental? All of the above, of course. But why not? Babies can do that to people. Or at least, me. I just mean in all of this: its a good day when a baby is born. So shouldn't every day be good? 12:56 PM

"Only theatre people have musical moments."
-Myself
Hello world. My name is Sarah; what's yours?
I love: my long, teal, knit, fingerless gloves; being able to pack that many adjectives into one description; thinking; my awesome friends; my lovable family; the theatre--both acting in and watching; my iPod; classical music; Five For Fighting music; ...music...; "How I Met Your Mother"; Neil Patrick Harris; writing; papaya lip gloss; "Friends"; the interwebz; English Class; movies; awards shows; chocolate related things; New York City; Boston; Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert; telling people about the things I love (apparently.)
I hate: negativity (well isn't that the hypocritical statement of the century); stupid people; bad parents; thinking; my inability to fall asleep quickly; sunburns; touching/eating sea creatures; insects; my bangs separating; writer's block; sickness; my own forgetfulness; my own impatience; know-it-alls; IRKs; intolerance; static electricity; dirt under my fingernails.
Quote of the week:
"Yes, I'm grounded: got my wings clipped. I'm surrounded by all this pavement. Guess I'll circle while I'm waiting for my fuse to dry. Someday I'll fly; someday, I'll soar. Someday I'll be so damn much more; cause I'm bigger than my body gives me credit for."
~John Mayer, "Bigger Than My Body"
Unconditional Desires.
- To finish writing a piece of literature.
- To have a fabulous new hair cut. (Achieved!)
- To travel throughout France.
- To experience zero gravity without going to space.
- To live in New York City with a friend for several years.
- To meet Neil Patrick Harris...I hear that guy's awesome.
- To be in a beauty pageant, then laugh with my friends at what a ridiculous idea it was.
- To nab a leading role in a play/musical at my school.
The endless connections.
