going to the ball

so, i'm reading a book to my little sister Lizzie.

its about a princess, who cannot find a gown suitable for the grand ball she is attending.
she finds a gown, and goes to the ball, meets a handsome prince, and they live happily ever after.
its pretty basic stuff.

my little sister, took this story to heart.
before i even finishing saying 'THE END" and closing the book dramaticaly,
she leaps off my lap,
and runs down the hall.
'i gotta get ya-gown!'

she comes back 5 minutes later in her 'night'gown.
she says 'bye say-wah! i going to da ball!'
"ok liz! i'll see ya later!"

she walks into the backyard,
and comes back 3 minutes later,
with a ball.
i was so freaking proud.
:)

this year

i'm going to try out for the LQ soccer team.
i'm going to audition for the fall show
annnnnnddd
i'm going to raise the money to go to LONDON.


yep.
its gonna be awesome.

my monologue of choice?
its called "A Broken Home, and a Broken Heart"

“I don't think my wounds will ever heal. (Looks up) I have plenty of them. On the outside, AND the inside. I never really knew her, yet I loved her. My mother never loved me back, though. I adored my father too. Unlike my mother, he was always around. It seemed like he always had time for me. Mother was always away, burying herself in work or out with some guy. My father knew about these strange men, but loved my mother far too much to do anything about it.


Sometimes Mother brought them over when she knows Father won't be home. She must have had hundreds of them. I knew she was unfaithful, and yet, I could not help but admire her. Her beautiful golden curls were soft and silky to touch. Her face, perfectly symmetrical. She was forever confident, forever decisive. I wish I were more like her. (Tears roll down Tara's cheeks) But now, all I have left to admire are her old photographs, all with a different guy in them. I think Father is going crazy. He can't stand the thought of life without her. He says he's going to commit suicide. I know he won't go without me, though. I understand how he feels. It was so horrible.

But the last one… he was so scary, with his tattoos and piercings. I think Mother was secretly afraid of him. If you had seen him, you would've been terrified too. He always beat her, always shouted at her. He threatened to kill her if she ever dared leave him. I always hid in my room when that man came over. He didn't know about me and Father. Mother didn't tell him. She never tells any of them. That day, she brought him home and he saw us, Father and I. (Dramatic Pause) He found Dad’s baseball bat...

(Eyes flaring, angry and defensive, fists balled, jaw clenched) (Hisses) You think Mother is an idiot. You think Father should have left her ages ago. (Screams madly) I just KNEW it! Everyone says that! None of you get it! She was the greatest mother in the world! And the most beautiful by far! You're all just jealous! (Tara's voice suddenly drops to a whisper) You're all just jealous... “
yep.
i'm pretty stoked(:

SCHOOL.

is school.


soo, lets start this little narrative with some background shall we?

its the saturday before the monday of school.
2 days to D-day,
when i had an essay, 25+ questions, 20 defined emblematic passages, a set of 68 literature terms to define, and a book to finish.

so my dear friend allie comes over, and we pull an allnighter.
we go to church sunday, get some frozen yogurt,
then come back, and pull a 2nd allnighter.
we finish our work,

and head to school, 48 hours without sleep(:
then after we recieve our schedules, we head to class.

my schedule looks like this
1 World History HP
2 Chemistry HP
3 English II HP
4 Advanced Algebra HP
5 French III
6 Stage Productions II
allie and i have english together! woo!
hahaha, which is why i chose not to turn in my emblematic passages,
they were a tad too similar...



the first week was pretty boring.
the second week, it got interesting.

WEDNESDAY at lunch,
it was 'Stoner Corner' day with Allie(:
(aka, we sit inside one of the quads and people watch)

and, on our way to walking over to our little corner,
some guy cuts me off,
and nearly trips me.

i respond in typical sarah fashion
"oh YOU'RE cool."

and get this,
he turns around,
checks me out,
and smiles.

WTF?
i cannot even begin to understand boys.
they make no sense.

its funny,

that every few months, i post a blog saying "OMG its been forever!!!"




haha, its only been a few months...




still, these particular months, end of july, all of august and beginning of september,




have been pretty big for me.


i can't quite pin any precise moment, but, i think we'll start with end of july.

july 25th - 31st.
younglife camp in 'lost canyon' arizona.

suuuuccccchhhh good times(:






there was alphie dressing up like a cholo when he was supposed to be 80s punk.
(he then proceded to steal a butter knife from the dinner table, and shanking people (shallowly of course), kicking me in the shins, and pushing me down the stairs)

there was amazing rapping along with all the skits...
i wonder how many i actually remember...




there was the sleeping bag fight(:
i'm in the blue bag,

jesus. that girl was a BEAST. i was doing fine until i dropped my helmet. ahahah

um, there was also MELVIN.
the dumpstahs
Con Y(teh da)A(teh da)-West, and Lil Wayne
OH! and the mud fight!!
oh my goodness. sooooo good.
there is WAY too much to talk about YL camp though.
i guess you'll have to ask me specifically.
july- beginning august,
was babysitting.
lots and lots of babysitting
of my own siblings.
monday -friday,
8am- 5pm.
and i have YET to be paid.

dad still doesnt have a job persay,
he is, as he puts it,
"reluctantly self employed"

august,
5th - went to Korea Town with Lauren, Cody and Michael to see Blue October and Switchfoot; which was AMAZING.


but for a week,
the 17th -21st i think,
i went up to Alpine Christian Conference Center,
and was a jr counselor of 7 amazing girls.
that week, was probably the highlight of my summer.
i met amazing new friends,
haha cliched as it was, i discovered things i didnt even know about myself.
truth be told?
this summer really went out with a bang.
a good one too(:
