so this is a pre-prom update. for the record, i'm going with parker stewart. it should be fun. michael lopez is making my dress. it is almost finished, and it looks so FIERCE and FABULOUS. i'm extremely excited. it has a luella-esqueness to it, which is what i wanted really. sarah, christy and i are getting our nails done on friday, and everything is planned. it is going to be great.
on a not so great note, mr. mcgovern informed me that they might cut the AP art class because not enough students have signed up. apparently we have 8 but they want 12. last year, they had 17 but they wanted only 12 so they cut some students. they say it is for budget reasons, which is the lamest excuse Cb can give anyone. i'm going to appeal to mr schuman and then mr. burnell, and then talk to the friends of the arts. i'll probably also have my parents call the school and the other AP art kids' parents call the school. i'm lighting the fire under the admin's ass because this is ridiculous.
much more on prom and Ap art later. i'll post pictures and whatnot.
btw, if you read my blog, feel free to comment. i love comments.

spring break #4
this will most likely be the last spring break entry. it is finally coming to a close, hopefully for the better. i can't ever be too sure. i'm happy about this break. it was quite successful even if i didn't do EVERYTHING i wanted to.
Tuesday Night: i picked up stephen and his friend AJ. of course when i arrived to his house, he was not there. its ok. i like his parents. we went to baskin robbins and then we toured pocket. i showed him where a bunch of kids lived. we went and parked outside of his house for about 30 minutes or so. he was jet lagged and just yakking away endlessly about nonsense. o stephen.
Wednesday: in the morning i went to breakfast with sarah wong. everyone else had lame excuses why they couldn't come, but its ok because i like spending time with her. we went to lyons and because it was about 11, i had chicken strips. yep, i couldn't help myself. i took her home and helped her pick what dress to wear to prom. after that, i went to our softball "retreat" at cassie's house. it was actually a lot more fun than i had expected. we played hours of catch phrase, ate food, learned the animal game, and talked shit about mr. havey for about an hour or so. i feel we all bonded but coach christy is a bit mad at me for not going to softball for so many days. whatever.
Thursday: emily had to take the day off to finish up her dress so i went to spend the day with her. brian also took the day off so he was there too. he brought me chicken nuggets [and emily taco bell] and read chemistry. he was being a bit strange. well, really, the whole thing was quite strange. emily and brian have their whole "thing" which i have accepted, because these "things" happen and then come and they go. it still made the situation a bit awkward. but it was nonetheless humorous when i broke out the cosmo and we started reading sex tips while watching simon burch and flavor of love. i painted my nails with emily's chanel. the color is called vamp, and it looks kind of like a blood red. i love it a lot. i had to leave for softball after that. softball was extremely boring and a waste of time. actually, i take that back. i did talk prom with natalie and she told me all about parker's shenanigans. that is a story for another blog entry. anyway, after softball i went home, changed as quickly as possible, ate, and left for the boardwalk. i met lizzy and felisha there. the matches played. i danced and sang at the top of my lungs the entire time. it felt so good to just let out all my built up energy into something i love. the night was very interesting. there was this extremely hott/gorgeous/incredibly-good-looking guy named caleb from a band called Forever The Sickest Kids. i decided that i must take a picture with him. i did, and he hugged me and embraced me and talked to me for a few minutes, while keeping body contact. it was all very cute and fun, until some faggot kid tapped him on the shoulder mid-embrace. the kid laughed all the while, asking if i wanted a picture with him since he still had his arm around me. the rest of the night, i dubbed caleb my boyfriend. hahaha. justin from SAC came and we talked for awhile until gina was ready and we could leave. on the way home we stopped at taco bell. i kind of hate that place, and this is why: they gave me the pussy-est burrito ever. i went home, showered, and slept from 2-6:45 for SF.
Friday/Today: sarah wong and i went to san francisco to look at SFSU. we took the tour and all that. it was a nice place and they carry the major i want. i deffinitley could consider going there. we saw dillon ashley touring also. how weird. afterthe tour we went to marc by marc jacobs. i got a key chain thing. my keys look really classy. we followed that by some lunch in the market street mall and some major shopping around union square. i got a new, big, leather bag at H&M, a shirt at Foever 21, and sarah got a wallet and a dress. once we scoured the city for sales and goodies, we headed to pier 39. i had never been here, so it was quite interesting. we had dinner at bubba gumps. that is the seafood restaurant based off of the movie Forest Gump. naturally, i was excited. it was good and i love that place because of all its forest references. after, we went home. on the way home we watched That Thing You Do, which is written by Tom Hanks [who is also in it]. i loved it a lot. and now i am home.

spring break #3
Sunday: EASTER !!! we went to my cousin jill's house for a lunch/dinner thing and easter-egg hunt. all of my little cousins were there [my big ones too]. we ate good food and the kids hunted for about one million eggs. it was a good day.
Monday: all the public school kids had to go back to school. i met with emily for coffee in the morning before she had school. we talked and laughed. it was a good meeting. after i dropped her off at school i went home. at home i read some history and then i got bored. johnathan ross and i went to sarah wong's house, and then the three of us surprised stephanie. her whole family was home and it was fun. the four of us decided to go to blockbuster and contemplate movies for our "south sac movie night". at 3 i had to take them all home so i could pick up brian at school. yes, brian asked me to pick him up at school. despite his ridiculous outfit, all went well. our talk was short and drama-free. things are better now and i know i am going to work hard to keep them this way. i've learned a lot from this terrible experience and i'm extremely stoked the whole ordeal is over.
Today/Tuesday: i had a hair appt at 11, so i decided to visit emily at her house before hand. she was finishing up a project. my hair appt was GREAT. i have a new stylist again. her name is caitlin, and she is really nice. she asked me all about my art and we talked music and boys and everything. it was great.that ran until about 2:30, which was way longer than i anticipated but o well. i went to kevin's house to do our spanish project with jack taylor. i've never actually interacted with him, but he is extremely nice/funny. i love the taylor family. anyway, our project was a spanish version of napoleon dynamite. it was really hilarious. jack was napoleon, kevin was pedro, and i was deb. jack did the dance and everything. i can't wait until kevin edits it. i laughed so much during filming, i almost peed.

christy van beek tagged me so i'll do this.
The rules: Once tagged you list 10 facts about yourself whether it be a habit or some random factoid about yourself. Afterward you list 10 people you would like to Tag and why? Then they continue the cycle.
1. Myself- my name is Amy [duh]. i'm an American teenage girl which means i like expensive things, beautiful people, and everything at a fast pace. i tend to be extremely sarcastic and make [what i think are] witty comments a lot. i try to be as friendly as possible, because i love friends, but i know i am really in your face which tends to scare some people.
2. Music- well, i really like it a lot. i play the guitar, or at least try. it is something that i love to do even though i 'm not good at it. there are so many musical artists nowadays, that i've honestly become a bit picky. i appreciate people with true musical talent because it is extremely special and inspiring.
3. My Passion- Art is my passion. it is something i wish to pursue for the rest of my life. i love to create and show people what i see in my head and what i am feeling. right now i'm really getting into painting. everything and everyone inspires me.
5. Past- my past has been great in the general sense. i was born into a gifted, two-parent lifestyle with plenty of love and financial stability. i've changed a lot since i've been in both junior high and high school, which i feel is both normal and good. i learn so much everyday. i've had my bumps along the journey, but i suppose everything happens for a reason.
6. Inside Jokes- i have a love hate relationship with inside jokes. i love them when they are funny and i am included, but i hate them when i don't get them and am not included. but they are quite funny. i tend to have inside jokes with myself. i think that is bad.
7. Girls/Guys- Christy says this means the opposite sex. so here you go: I LOVE GUYS !! i know i'm a girl and blah blah blah but i deffinitly prefer hanging out with guys to girls and would rather have sons than daughters. this probably makes me sound like a terrible person. guys are just so much more laid back. but sometimes i do need my girls.
8. High School- really bad invention. although i'm glad i stayed at Cb because the people there are really great. all high schools suck, but Cb doesn't suck that bad. ahha. i appreciate the tight community that is CB.
9. Driving- thank god i have my license.
10. Food- well i've stopped eating meat a lot since lent. but i love food. it is good/fun/brings people together.
