I just finished reading this book in english, and to my surprise I actually really enjoyed it. Not just because one of the leading charcacters has my name. But Sydney Carton was my favorite character, I was on the verge of obsession with him. He was just so fascinating and human. Unlike Charles Darnay who everyone loves, the perfect husband sort of thing who runs and hides from his past life to meet the girl of his dreams that changed him forever. Bull crap I say to that. I love Sydney Carton and what a BA he is. Clearly he hasn't made the best choices in life, but he accepts that. Accepts it. That is definitely something men today ( using men as a human term) learning to accept there mistake and move forward, instead of trying to cover up for them.With Sydney accepting his foolishness he finds his "calling" I guess you could say. With all the evil in him there is that spot of good that shines towards the end of the novel.
Like yin and yang.
Sydney Carton and Charles Darnay are doppelgangers in the book and when I think of them togther I think of yin and yang, two opposite forces making one whole force. Charles is the white side because he is your classic "good guy" but he has the darkness within him which is his past as an Evremonde. Sydney on the other hand is the black side because he is seen as the drunkard bad guy throguh most of the book that no one cares about but he has the light in him which is his love and devotion for Lucie Manette and her loved ones. So together Sydney and Charles sort of make one ideal human creature.
Just some thoughts that came from my powerpoint presentation in english class. Speaking of which I was so dissappointed in the fact that my music wasn't working, practiaclly broke my heart.

Friends:)
Do you not love them? I mean they check into the hotel and then they check out but when they get settled you create so many memories. I have made a bundle of new friends this year, mainly mormons believe it or not, and honestly I have really felt a change un myself, like how much nicer I am to people and not as judgmental. I don't think it's a coincidence. Of course I am still hang out with some of my friends from last year like Jenna, Kayla, Becca and Gunnar, and of course I have lost friends along the way like Jeannie. Or maybe I'm just not as close to people like I was before like Allie, Jenny, Kyra or Katti (which I totally hate by the way guys). But this year I have become friends with Sadie (who is like my sister now), Ashlyn, Sam, TJ (who is like my best friend), Cheyenne, Hailey, Markus, Mady, Dalyn, Cabby, Ben, Alex, Kayla R and so many others! It's kind of crazy how friends leave and then you make handfulls of new ones. I love my friends. And the fact that I have a lot of them. Like a lot. That's all I've got to say you know?

Happy March
Although I had AIMS today and everyone had late starts except for the sophomore, I had a really good day. I was in a nifty mood and so were most of the people around me.
I was happy I didn't have A hour, I was happy that the day went backwards (change is nice sometimes), I was happy with just about everything. Well everything except rehearsal, it is kind of getting boring. Only fourteen more rehearsals and 29 more days until opening night. I can't wait.
I think before seminary was the favorite part of the day with Samantha and Dalyn (others as well).

We made footprints from the water in the grass
(Tag: Samantha)
We climbed trees
(Tag: Devon)
Jeff made a really cool vest out of gum wrappers!

And although tomorrow is the same kind of schedule, I don't think it can live up to today. Well except the fact that Saydee is picking me up to go to school and we will be drinking...HOT CHOCOLATE!

Hush now.
Quiet down.
Can you hear my heart racing?
Falling to my knees cause I’ve been a chasing a lie. (a lie)
Love life
I don’t know what I was thinking, dipped my toes in, now I’m sinking
I guess it hurts a bit but I’m over it now.

Heartaches and mistakes,
how many hits can a good girl take.
I’m tired of hurting, slowly learning
Irate you’re too late.
Look at the mess that you’ve created
First date to slight hate

I tried, yes I tried.
But it takes two to make it
I’m obsessed and you can’t fake it
Denied
Deep inside
I wanna break your heart too
Lead you on and up to drop you.

Grey clouds above me
Like when you said you love me
Winds blowing me away
But part of me will always stay
Eyes closed, arms wide
Embrace the storm that I feel inside
No more crying, no more crying
I don’t mind a chop or two
But god I love that sound, sound
Thunder of my inner chaos slowly calming
Down, down
I look up in the sky
No longer seeing you
Look up in the sky
See the sun coming through
Like when you said you love me
Winds blowing me away
But part of me will always stay
Eyes closed, arms wide
Embrace the storm that I feel inside
No more crying, no more crying
I don’t mind a chop or two
But god I love that sound, sound
Thunder of my inner chaos slowly calming
Down, down
I look up in the sky
No longer seeing you

Those kind of people
So you know those kind of people?
The kind of people that you don't know, but you are pretty positive you would be good friends with them if you did know them?
I have a lot of those people. I actually had a list of them for awhile. It was my goal to befriend them. And I have befriended almost all of them. The ones that I have left, are the ones I used facebook-stalk (call me a creeper all you want, I'm sure you are no exception). Notice that I used the word "used", well from all my stalking I have found them to be someone I wouldn't necessarily want to be friends with. But I shall try and be friends with them anyways. Maybe.
Anyways, what was the point of me pointing this out? I have no clue actually. It was just something on my mind. Become friends with people. Yes, if there is anything you want out of this small little blog, is to be nice and make friends.
