:DD

Hello everyone!!

I hope y'all are doing swimmingly in college or in preparation for it. It has indeed been a very, very long time.

I hope everyone is still reading. :[

I'm sitting in my room at Cornell, doing some homework after breakfast. It's cryptology - a course I'm taking to get out of a math requirement, and it's still kicking my butt. I feel like I might have been better off just taking a regular math class rather than a kind-of-a-math-class. Oh well.

My other classes are Tonal Theory I, Musicianship I, British Literature: Animals, Monsters, and Aliens, Dance Technique I (<- this is for a PE requirement. =.=), and Intro to Acting. My favorite is Tonal Theory- the professor is British and he's a very, very charming man. :] I like listening to him talk. I also like watching him bounce back and forth between the piano and the computer. He's a very lively man who's clearly in love with his subject. I love learning from people like him.

In other news, I don't know if Cornell is the place for me.

I know I want to get into performance, and if I want to go through with this, then I feel like I should transfer out to the city, or at least to LA. I don't know what to do...I've only been here for a few weeks. I want to talk to a professor or two and the dean but I feel kind of awkward doing that. "Hey, I just got into your school and I want to go somewhere else. Can you help me?" For some reason I don't think the dean will like that very much.

I also figure that I should start putting together a portfolio of monologues and songs/pieces that I know how to do/sing/play. If I do end up applying to another school, preferably a performing school, then they'll certainly look for that.

Any advice, ladies? :[

I miss all of you.

I miss having Wendy as my roommate. I think I'm realizing more and more now what a special bond the four of us had, how lucky we were to find each other and to bond so quickly and tightly in just the first few days. I don't really have that here. My roommate is a graduate student (don't ask...it's a long, looooong story) and my friends are all so busy that I really only see them if I call them or text them to go eat. :/ I wish I had a best friend here.

It's kind of like that with my family. I think that you miss something most when you don't have it anymore. For the first week and a half I missed my Mom so much that I couldn't take a call or a text from her without starting to cry. Things are a lot better now, but just a few days ago, they weren't that great.

But I got into a singing group on campus. :] Everyone is very welcoming and quirky. I think all of the guys except for two are gay. Maybe three. I lose count. Anywhoo, I think it's a group of people I will come to love, given some time.

I'll give a shoutout if I can ever make the bus to NYC. I miss you and love you all very, very much. I hope you're all having a wonderful time, wherever you are. I love you.

<3, Yeana

College O:

It's been a while- why?

Admittedly, I stopped writing first :(

Last I checked, we were all in a hurry 'cause of college apps...now that they're over and we're all in college, what's up?

Happy :]

Hello my ladies!

It's been a whileee and I feel bad for not blogging, especially since I've been so carefree lately. Hahah. Being a second semester senior ROCKS but the whole senioritis thing does get on my nerves sometime. IB is still killing me but it's just something I've always had to deal with. Tennis season has started up and my first match is Tuesday! I have really been enjoying the season because we've been doing a lot more conditioning this year and I just feel so fit now! It makes me feel good. :]

Anyway, a lot of drama has been going on, things with boys, friends, boys AND friends, and the like. As you guys probably know by now, I have a boyfriend now! :]]]]]
Most of the drama has been circling around him, as I also found out recently that one of my best friends who liked last year still has feelings for him....trust me, you don't want me to go into it. Very complicated, but things are fine now. At least I think so. It may sound selfish that I'm in the relationship and not her, but if you know the situation and her personality, you would think otherwise. ;P

So I had a greattt date last night! We went to Chili's and then ice-skating!! I'm so glad he took me ice-skating because it was just so personal, you know? I'm extremely happy now and determined to make this relationship work! I'm not going to cut it off like I have with previous ones. This one is REAL, I just know it!

Other than that, not much has been going on! Blog, girls! And we should all skype sometimes!

<3 you all!

Hello!!

Hello Ladies!

Sorry that it has been so long since I last blogged. Life has been crazy, as it has been for all of us I am sure!!

College apps are done for me as well, thank the lord. And now it is a waiting game. I have been accepted into 3 colleges on early action plans with scholarship, so I have somewhere to go, if I do not get into my top school.

Life for me has been aggrivating and busy... and I agree with Wendy - it seems as if the entire world has become materialistic, which bothers me. But I need to keep positive energy or I will be boggled down with negative thoughts.

Life has been crazy, and it is only going to get more so. I just finished the Melodies of Christmas, a huge production done on a broadway size stage in a major city west of Albany, I did it last year, but I think that it was so much better this year! And, I am going to sound petty, but I got more camera time this year than I did last year!! (It is recorded all four nights and then broadcasted christmas eve and day). Many clubs, and what not.. it seems like there is not enough time in the day.... I wrote a paper in spanish about why there should be 48 hour days - think of all the sleep we could have as well as how much work we could get done!!

Tryout for the musical are this week! We are doing the Music Man, and I have a part in mind, but don't want to get my hopes up! I also applied and recieved a music apprenticeship with Albany's professional adult chior. I am so excited!!! There were 75 applicants and only 10 made it.

What else? I am trying to think... I feel like so much is going on that if I think about it all, I am just going to feel overwhelmed. So, what about you all???

I am excited to hear from you, but know that my midterms are coming up at the end of January, so I am going to become dormant again, for a bit (maybe).

Love to you all and I hope that you all had lovely holidays and have a wonderful start to a great new year!!!

Love,
Rosie
