wherein Cara uses her feet a bit too much

I went to FNW on Friday night. That pretty much rocked because I learned how to Foxtrot, with PIVOTS!! Pivots are definately the shit. If that doesn't make sense, let's just say they are one of my favorite things to do on the dance floor. Then after coming home at 3 am and working all day Saturday, I went swing dancing in the city at the dog house. It was killer fun because I learned to basic lindy, the lindy circle, and the charleston. And it was just amazing to be dancing with some really fucking awesome dancers. On some dances I just never stopped moving. Burned my toes off, I did.

wherein cara AAAAAAAAGGGGGHHH!!!

Tonight I watched Night of the Living Dead and Day of the Dead with Laura. Whew! I also flung a piece of vacuum cleaner at the window as I demonstrated to my mother how I could hit a zombie with it. It was an accident. Zombies are scary..... but pretty damn cool. I think I'm going to make a zombie movie.

I got two firsts, a second, and a third place at the feis. I think I danced best on the light jig and my reel was crap.

wherein Cara survived so far

Hello everyone. I'm listening to Robert Johnson right now. Brilliant. My heart is happy when I hear him.

So, Valentines Day was fairly decent. I actually turned in all my homework for school. So proud. I feel I should say it's not like I did the work the night before, but very hurriedly during the day. I do most of my assignments in this fashion. Only this time it worked. My friends were nice to have around. Laura gave me candy and Darcy said she'd be my valentine. My evening was exceedingly dull at times, but very exciting and engaging at others. I don't really feel like elaborating. Suffice to say, it was comme-ci, comme-ca... if that makes any sense... and REALLY good at the same time.

Today was not so good though. My knee popped out in video production and I threw my brand new ipod, Muddy, as I fell. It hurt so fucking much that after I could finally stand, I waited in the elevator room until some non-walking person came down and I could slip in to get upstairs. This sucks big time. I have Irish dance tonight, a waltz on Friday, and an Irish dance competition on Sunday. These won't be any fun if I'm half lame. No fun at all.

Other than that, (and that I'm falling behind in some classes), I'm feeling okay.

After dance edit:
Went okay. Darcy came over and I figured out a new tune/song. My harmonica broke and I started getting severe back pain. Fucking awesome, eh? So I took a bath and played my broken harmonica.

wherein cara will burn something

I'm going to die. Of boredom. I'm so effing bored all the effing time.
Today I went to school blah blah blah and I see that even the brightest spots of my day aren't worth mentioning because they are so GODDAM boring. I just want them to seem interesting because I'm so effing bored with everything. I made that DVD at least, worked it out on my own, without effing help. I never have effing anything to do. And I never say effing, but I don't really feel like cursing today because it will just fuel my angst. Vlad II died. I'll fly out the window one of these days.

wherein Cara is turned into a transvestite

Day was fine. Yes, fine. I think I'm figuring out all the damn time code problems in my clip loggings/batch capturing of my documentary. Yeah... great. Darcy wasn't at school and I waited for her for a while since I hadn't remembered. Fweh. I went to dance on time and such. I think that was a first. Ann yelled/got mad at me a bit because I kept not knowing what the hell step I was on and the Feis is coming up. Whatever, I'm bound to fuck things up. That's what I do! =D On the bright side, Darcy insisted on dying my hair again because I'm her damn hamster or something and she likes to test shit on me. So she died my hair this horrible color and now I look like a transvestite. Actually I don't really care that much- it's just hair. Maybe I should cut it all off. Waaah. But we DID watch Shaun of the Dead and that movie was just as good as when I first saw it. Zombies are just cool. My mom got pissed at my hair color. Oh well, at least she doesn't know it's permanent. *wicked laughter* Party on Saturday.

You know what song gets me? I love it, it makes me all happy-feeling at times... "Meet Me in the Morning" by the old Mr. Dylan. God its bloody brilliant shite right there.

wherein Cara is sick

Yeah, I did want to go to school actually. Now I got to go bloody rent Night of the Living Dead to see the end. I saw it when I was little, with my sister... but I have no recollection. Besides the point. So I just slept until 1:17 pm. Couldn't lift my damn head up. Oh well. I'm feeling much better, but not quite better, now. Laura bought me a chai tea latte. Thanks Laura. Darcy came over and we ate dinner and watched half of "Do The Right Thing", which I've already seen and I think it's deadly good. It's a Spike Lee Joint. Shaun of the Dead had to wait. So tomorrow. Yes. Anyhow, read this. I think it's amusing.

oh the delights of some such

So here it is again. Another damn journal.

My weekend was some good, some bad. On Friday... actually, I don't remember Friday at all. Some vague hanging out, no? Yes I think that was done. And Darcy cut my hair. Oh we went to the Gilman instead of Walnut Creek like we were going to. It was okay, but Laura wanted to leave early. Well we kind of showed up late anyways. It was hilarious watching all the young punks (oo which song) run in circles and hit each other. They destroyed the chair I had my feet up on. Laura and I bashed each other around a bit. AHaha... joys of hardcore punkness. So yeah, that was it. Oh, and we went by Chipotle first to get a burrito. I was going to have to pay Laura back for half, but the guy (who I sort of know) gave us a free one. That's twice in a row... ! I think I've gotten definitely over 10 free burritos from there. Maybe even around 20. Okay.
Then on Saturday... I can't really remember what I did. Oh, I stayed in bed until 2:30 I think. I hardly ever go past 9 or 10. But I wasn't sleeping, just lounging. Then I... can't remember. Probably went to the library. Yeah. Oh Darcy came over and we swung danced around for a bit while she helped me pick out an outfit for winter ball. Then, yep, I went to winter ball. It was okay... it got a lot more fun when Dominick got there and we schottisched/waltzed/polka'd/and did some swing dancing to the bad pop/hip hop music. After that we were gonna go to a party in Walnut Creek but someone didnt give us the address so.. we drove up into Tilden and it was scary because we couldnt see anything in the fog. Then when we passed Fish Ranch I knew were heading for the cliffs that have no guardrails and are inches from the pavement so I told Dominick to go down the hill. They have a lot of deaths on those cliffs from driving accidents and such.
I feel like I got some bad news though that night, so I didn't really feel so well. Kind of felt like vomiting. In the morning I woke up very ill. I had slept on a chair in Laura's house again. I vaguely remember Dom using my feet as a pillow. So I got pretty sick on Sunday, but I tried to pretend I wasn't. Went to Walnut Creek and blahblahblah. Died my hair this color that Darcy gave me for Christmas. Didn't do it right, but who cares. It's funky-colored now. Orange-ish red. Fweee.
I failed Pre-calc so I dropped it. Tomorrow I have school from 9:20 until 12:45. Score. I might not go, but I want to finish watching Night of the Living Dead in Lento's class. Darcy and I might watch Shaun of the Dead tomorrow because we like it a lot. We'll see. Bye people... no people.

Hey look I'm dressed up. Many of you have not seen this side of me. Not-ratty-looking Cara! Only thanks to Darcy- for the cool dress and shoes. My feet look swollen- PREGNANT!!!!
