just checked the call back list. and it looks like i'm auditioning again tomorrow. i should be jumping for joy. but i'm so scared. cuz it would SUCK ASS if didn't make it after getting called back. that's the absolute worst. being so close and yet not making it. i would prefer getting cut after the first audition than getting called back then cut. what a horrible feeling. well i can only hope for the best.
oh, and i got called back for a crap shooter. so if i make it, i'm playing a guy....which is freaking awesome cuz i LOVE their costumes. they all wear these bright pinstriped suits from the 20's. it's great. and i get to "gamble." fun stuff. well, tell me to break another leg.....i really need it this time.

Ack….my audition for Guys and Dolls is tomorrow. I’m not nervous but I’m scared. Is there a difference? Yes there is. it’s a scary thought that there are 70 people trying out for 35 roles. Wowzers. But I don’t think im nervous. I mean, im only auditioning in front of Ballin so there’s nothing to be nervous about. I’ll just sing my song, do my dance, and hope for the best. It’s bad luck to wish people good luck for an audition so tell me to break a leg =D.

Yesterday brian, michelle, and I went gallivanting around Fremont. It was great fun.
We started the day by climbing mission peak – didn’t make it to the top though. We stopped on a hill to eat lunch, got too comfy, and decided not to climb the rest of the way. On the way down we made a really fat penguin (brian’s idea) out of rocks. Then we took pictures with it. As we walked down some more we decided to get as close as we could to some cows and take pictures with them. That was interesting.
On our hike I realized that we’re such urbanized city kids. While we were eating lunch there were cows in the distance that kept on moo-ing and brian and I thought that the moo-ing was our cell phones vibrating. hahahaha. It sounds awfully similar.
So after our hike we went to the old mission san jose church. Explored the church, the graveyard, the gift shop, and the museum with it’s little doors that made us fell really tall =D. we found a dark closet with a note inside the door that said “don’t close the door from the inside because it will lock and you wont be able to get out.” There was a door at the back of the closet that we (well, more like I) tried to open. I got spooked out when brian said this was how a horror story starts. Michelle proposed to brian in the church at the alter – which was cute. She formally asked him to winterball. Awww.
Then we headed over to niles and walked around the town. Apparently there was a Christmas parade. And apparently it happens every year and I don’t know about it. So it was nice wandering in and out of antique stories with all these beautiful Christmas lights and decorations.
And to top it all of we had pho for dinner. Yum =D.
I was out for the entire day, I had loads of fun, and I never left Fremont. And I only spent seven bucks – which was for food. I had no idea I could have so much fun in Fremont. Plus all the fun we had was free. Good times.
We didn’t go to crowded places like the mall or the bowling alley or the movies, so we got to talk the whole time (and tell lame jokes). we talked about ryla, the meaning of life (we really did – it was kinda funny), michelle’s FAT BRUISE (which resulted from her being bitten by her drunk brother), and a whole bunch of other stuff. While we were on mission peak – well not really the peak, but on a hill – we saw two people hang gliding. It looked so freaking awesome. I hecka wanna do that, and I wanna land in someone’s backyard and scare the crap out of them. hahaha.
Thanksgiving day was awesome fun also. I loaded up on salad, turkey, and mashed potatoes at my uncle’s house. I went a tad crazy during dinner and started saying random harry potter incantations at people. hahaha. I pointed a butter knife at my mom and said “crucio.” She looked completely confused when my cousins and I busted out laughing. OH MY GOODNESS – I finally saw Spiderman 1. It was on t.v thanksgiving night. Tobey Maguire (sp?) has REALLY nice teeth. It was the scene where he was getting all beat up by the green globin, and his face was so bloody – but underneath all the blood were some really straight white teeth. Blows your mind. Now I just gotta watch spiderman 2.
This thanksgiving break has been so nice and relaxing. No hw, no projects, and I’ve gotten a lot done with my private college essays =D.
Wow. This entry was long.

Dear Northwestern:
Why is it that whenever I call your admissions office, I am listening to some sort of Northwestern "fight song" for a pronlonged period of time? I am working very hard to complete the two essays you require for undergraduate admissions. And that's not to mention the four short answer questions to which I must find clear and intelligent, yet witty and creative respones to. It's all very difficult. I'm hoping that an interview will help me in my admissions process. I want to ask you this: How can I possibly schedule an alumni interview for undergraduate admissions if you put me on hold and never take me off hold. It's not possible. I cannot go about my day with a phone glued to my ear, waiting for a representative to come to his/her senses, take me off hold, and kindly schedule an interview. The application deadline is in a month. I also have three other private schools that i must schedule interviews for. Your lack of consideration, information, and helpfulness is very disconcerting. [insert string of curse words]. [continue to insert string of even more hateful curse words]. [insert two words: the first word beginning with the letter f and the second word beginning with the letter y].
Thank you for your time,
Stephanie Wu

i'm on an aim strike until i finish my common application.
when did i decide this? two days ago. why? cuz that day i had NO hw. ALLLL i had to do was study for a calculus test (which i think i did poorly on), so i could've worked A LOT on my college apps, and i could've done some gov't extra credit, and i could've done a billion other productive things. but what did i do? go on aim. ugh. i hate being unproductive. i mean, i like relaxing.....but when i have stuff to do and i go on aim - then that bugs me. i piss myself off a lot. i think i can survive thanksgiving break w/o aim....i mean, i'm not addicted or anything. i think.
i'm so frusturated with everything. the majority of that frusturation comes from college apps. i don't understand how people expect us to go to college when they make the effing application process long, expensive, boring, tedious, annoying, expensive, and full of shit. it's not like it's just the application and the essays. it's getting out reccomendation forms, putting in transcript requests, sending in SAT scores, scheduling interviews, and throwing money out the window for all of that crap.
i feel like going to an open field and just screaming my lungs out. if i do that in my house my neighbors might call the cops. it would feel SO good to just let out all my frusturation and energy and yell and scream like there's no tomorrow. it's like i have all this pent up "stuff" that i need to let out.
on the bright side i have three parties to go to in december:
Dec 10: Rotary Christmas Celebration (at Mr.Richard King's house)
Dec 11: Winterball
Dec: 18: It's a Wrap
help. i need dresses.

i'm so pleased with our DC meeting. i think it went really well despite the fact we were missing SEVEN freaking people and TWO showed up an hour late.
afterwards me, laura, lynne, avani, courtney, paula, eric, and carlo went to the great mall for some food =D. im so excited cuz i think lynne (our new variety coordinator) is gonna fit in really well. yay! i had a baked potato, and now im really sick of potatoes. i know - that's hecka crazy. me.......sick of potatoes. but that thing was really big and had sour cream, cheese, bacon bits, and green onions in it. it was packed full of stuff. so im temporarily going on a potato strike.
area meeting tomorrow. interact overload! ahhhh.....
i don't know how jp can go to a DC meeting once a month and the DAY after that have an area meeting. insane child.
*EDIT*
i have to add that eric is a crazy person. at the DC meeting me and grace would look at him and be like, "what's WRONG with you!?" God knows what he was high on......
me, laura, and carlo saw another PINK car. it was the same model as laura's....it was just a brighter pink. soo hilarious cuz laura was going on the onramp to the freeway and all of a sudden she sees a pink car on the other side of the road and she starts spazzing out. what a coincidence. i wonder if the other driver was freaking out also.
during the ice breaker at the meeting i found out that our DC members are SO deprived. holy crap.....like HALF the people there had NO idea who GENE KELLY was. i was like going into shock. he's only one of the BEST entertainers ever. when i mentioned "singing in the rain" they gave me looks like i was the craziest person in the world! ahhhhhhh. i LOVE gene kelly. he was so amazingly talented. apparently me and eric are the only people who are crazy about old movies. WE don't live under rocks.
i would love to have a poster of gene kelly to add to my wall. then i can educate every person who comes into my room. "THIS is gene kelly. rent his movies. WATCH him. KNOW him. LOVE him." hahahaha.

I’m going crazy. I have a desperate need for the fifth harry potter book. Yes, I’ve read it….i’m not THAT disloyal. But I don’t OWN it. I need it on my bookshelf – to read, to stare at, and to touch. I need to BREATHE harry potter.
I mean, I have an entire wall of my window seat dedicated to harry potter and yet I don’t own the fifth book. And if that isn’t bad enough, I can’t find the second book. I think my sister’s bf took it.
I wish it would rain. Then I could get a cup of hot apple cider and curl up with harry potter and the order of the phoenix. But I can’t do that. WHY? Cuz I don’t have the fifth book that my LIFE depends on.
Ok, I admit – I’m being a tad dramatic, but I have to feed my harry potter addiction =D.

i had interviews for variety coordinator at laura's house today. she has the FATTEST cat ever. it's sooooo funny. cuz it's head is heck of tiny and there's just the MASSIVE body behind it. omg, it's hilarious. laura attributes its massive body to it's "thick fur." uh huh. sure. hahahaha.
i got to see quang and soo-young again so that was nice. quang tried playing ocean avenue on laura's dad's guitar, but it was missing one string and that was the main chord. hahaha. next time i see quang i'll make sure we're around a working guitar.
two more interviews on thursdasy. ACK. twelve applicants for one positions. this is gonna suck.

*viewer discretion advised*
bush won. ew. how depressing.
i don't like kerry or bush. i was rooting for nader. (yeah, like he stood a chance). but i preferred kerry over bush.
i was watching television a few days before the election, and a camera was at a university in the south asking random students why they liked bush. and all of 'em said something along the lines of, "he's a good person, and he stands for good christian morals." i think that really ticked me off. that has freaking nothing to do with being a good president. if you like bush cuz he has good policies......fine. but voting for him just on the basis that he's a christian? i think that's crap. i mean, go bush for being a born-again christian. and go bush for making his religion a big part of his life. (and that's not sarcasm). but that doesn't make you a good president.
and it's not like kerry is an immoral bastard. bush just talks about his religion more, and that's how he's identified. bush is more involved with christianity than kerry is with catholicism. it just bugs me when people say "well, at least bush has morals." kerry's not the devil incarnate. he didn't make his religion a major part of his campaign, and religion isn't as big in his life as it is in bush's.
people between the ages of 18 and 24 voted overwhelmingly democrat. and of the people eligible to vote in that age group, waaaaaaay less than half turned out to vote. vargas told us the exact percent, but i forgot. smart me, i know. but if people would just VOTE then kerry could have won. it bugs me when people don't vote. my mom almost didn't vote one year cuz she was too tired. but i guilted her into it. go me.
i hate this war. and i hate the bush administration for linking the war in Iraq with the war on terrorism. IRAQ AND 9/11 HAS NO CONNECTION. why does that bug me so much? cuz so many people are all gung-ho for bush because they see the war on terrorism as a connection to 9/11. it's totally unrelated.
i was watching clips of the presidential debates a few days ago, and one of them showed bush's response to unemployment. wow, what a jackass. his answer to unemployment was education. managers, ceo's, people who went to college and graduate school.....they've all been laid off. this hits me close to home cuz my dad's been unemployed forever. and then there's bush shooting off bullcrap about education being the key to getting jobs. so what're you gonna do, go to school for five more years, and that'll stop companies from outsourcing? just cuz you have a masters from harvard doesn't mean the economy will suddenly turn upright again and there'll be jobs. man....this guy is our president. *shudders.*
now that im thinking about this.....bush shouldn't even have won the first time. recount my ass. the rest of the world didn't understand why gore didnt' win. the rest of the world didn't understand why there was a recount. i agree with the rest of the world.
this guy in my drama class pierced his own lip by himself on friday. he was taking out his lipring in class. kinda grossed me out.
in conclusion: go nader. (and if you were offended by this entry.....i DID warn you in the beginning).

and it's not like kerry is an immoral bastard. bush just talks about his religion more, and that's how he's identified. bush is more involved with christianity than kerry is with catholicism. it just bugs me when people say "well, at least bush has morals." kerry's not the devil incarnate. he didn't make his religion a major part of his campaign, and religion isn't as big in his life as it is in bush's.
people between the ages of 18 and 24 voted overwhelmingly democrat. and of the people eligible to vote in that age group, waaaaaaay less than half turned out to vote. vargas told us the exact percent, but i forgot. smart me, i know. but if people would just VOTE then kerry could have won. it bugs me when people don't vote. my mom almost didn't vote one year cuz she was too tired. but i guilted her into it. go me.
i hate this war. and i hate the bush administration for linking the war in Iraq with the war on terrorism. IRAQ AND 9/11 HAS NO CONNECTION. why does that bug me so much? cuz so many people are all gung-ho for bush because they see the war on terrorism as a connection to 9/11. it's totally unrelated.
i was watching clips of the presidential debates a few days ago, and one of them showed bush's response to unemployment. wow, what a jackass. his answer to unemployment was education. managers, ceo's, people who went to college and graduate school.....they've all been laid off. this hits me close to home cuz my dad's been unemployed forever. and then there's bush shooting off bullcrap about education being the key to getting jobs. so what're you gonna do, go to school for five more years, and that'll stop companies from outsourcing? just cuz you have a masters from harvard doesn't mean the economy will suddenly turn upright again and there'll be jobs. man....this guy is our president. *shudders.*
now that im thinking about this.....bush shouldn't even have won the first time. recount my ass. the rest of the world didn't understand why gore didnt' win. the rest of the world didn't understand why there was a recount. i agree with the rest of the world.
this guy in my drama class pierced his own lip by himself on friday. he was taking out his lipring in class. kinda grossed me out.
in conclusion: go nader. (and if you were offended by this entry.....i DID warn you in the beginning).

i feel like kicking my dental hygenist. i had a dentist appt last week (yay!) and she freaking brushed my teeth so VIGOROUSLY. she was like murdering my teeth. i was thinking - holy crap, i know teeth are pretty strong but you need to caaaaalm down. and now i have this fat cold sore on my upper gum alllllllll the way at the back thanks to her murderous spinning toothbrush. i feel like ripping out the left side of the mouth cuz that freaking cold sore is painful.
my dental hygenists are really weird too. i was sitting in the chair all excited and ready for my appt. yes, i was excited. and no, that wasn't sarcasm. I LOVE the dentist. if i could go once a month i would. i love clean teeth. i love white teeth. my dentist is like my best friend. so, moving on...
dental hygenist: what size pants are those?
me: uhhh
dh: size 3?
me: no...size 0 or 1 i think
dh: oh...very nice!
me: uh, thanks
dh: did you dye your hair?
me: no...this is the natural color?
dh: oh so pretty. your hair is like mine, lots of brown in it
me: yeah...it's not very black
dh: don't dye your hair. it kills it. your hair is so beautiful, don't ruin it. my sister told me to dye my hair and now it's so ugly. i dyed it too many times. i want my old hair back. it was so beautiful. now it's totally different and i can't reverse it. so never dye your hair or highlight it.
me: ok
i was feeling hecka weirded out. i mean, who asks you "what size pants are those" like flat out. strange.
chicken soup for dinner. yum =D
