Thursday, Thursday, Gotta Get Down on Thursday!

I have that song in my head AGAIN. :(

And so, followers who do not exist, I shall again entertain you with my life.

Today I went to see the junior high school's production of Annie. Totally worth seeing if you live nearby. It was great to see my younger friends do their show, it really brought back memories of when I was younger. But now I've got to get ready for my own show, which opens in like 2 weeks.

This weekend the the Wells High Jazz Band, including myself, will be performing at Johnathan's restaurant in Ogunquit, as well as other band members playing various things. It starts at 6:30, so it's another thing to see if you live nearby.

And I'm getting ready to audition for yet another play. It's Shakespeare's Twelfth Night and my friend Kaitlyn's directing it. Not sure of when performance dates will be, but I can't wait. It'll be my first Shakespeare play, so this will be interesting. I should also point out that Kaitlyn has a blog too, it's called Life, Living, and Poetry.

Running out of song quotes, got any good ones, invisible readers?

Home At Last!

Well, so the rock-a-thon ended at 4PM on Saturday. But I wanted to take a nap until like 8 when I would get up to eat dinner, but instead I slept until 8AM this morning. Not too shabby. I took lots of video clips which I will compile and upload to my YouTube (dimitri13579) and then embed here.

In the meantime I will try to find a way to get "Friday" by Rebecca black out of my head.

EDIT: The files will not upload to YouTube because it will not accept wlmp files. Trying to find a file converter now.

EDIT 2: I'm an idiot. I didn't export the file.

EDIT 3: All three are being uploaded. But the first one is still in progress, and when it started, YouTube said it would take two and a half hours.

EDIT 4: Part One has finished.

EDIT 5: Part two is up. Part 3 say 71 minutes remaining. Look at the picture I posted above again.

TOO MANY EDITS: And finally, Part 3!

Slacking off...

Well to be honest, I shouldn't be posting right now because I'm supposed to be doing research for a school project, but I'm a huge procrastinator, so I'll get it done... eventually.

The big thing to talk about right now is still the Rock-a-thon, that will take place tomorrow. I'll bring my flip camera, which is still busted, but I'll put up with it until I can afford to buy a new one. I probably won't get to post tomorrow because it starts right after rehearsal for the school play tomorrow. But expect one as soon as I get some sleep into my system after it's over with footage from the event. But my camera can only hold 24 hours, so unless someone is willing to let me use their laptop to put files on my flash drive, that's all i can record. But i don't want to upload a two-hour video, and probably can't upload it to YouTube. But I'll open up movie maker and see what I can do. If there's enough going on, I may do 2 parts.

Now, remember how I was worried about not being ready in time for the musical I'm in? Well it turns out I'll be fine, I'm just going to have to practice a bit on my own time. If you live in the York county area, I highly recommend going to see it.

And so, back to my homework. Bleh.

It be a long 'un!

So basically I flipped out at my mom for not letting me hang out with my friends and she took my cell phone away. Sad face. But I'll be fine.

Now on a separate subject, I'd like to take the time to say happy birthday to my dad! His birthday is tomorrow and I got him a present I'm sure he'll love. He's actually got a blog of his own about making homemade ice cream. Here's the link to it if anyone wants to check it out.

Now, there's about a week left until the rock-a-thon which I'm sure I brought up before. I'm going to take the time to tell you guys a bit about that. As I've mentioned, I am a proud band geek. The rock-a-thon is a fundraiser we do to raise money for the band. It's especially important this year because we're going to Williamsburg soon. What we do is get sponsors and then bring rocking chairs to the school and sit in them and hang out... for 24 hours.

It's not as boring as it sounds, we get breaks where people go play basketball in the gym or just walk through the dark hallways at the school while no one's there. People even bring xboxes and hook them up to the HD TV that the school bought for the cafeteria for absolutely no reason at all. Sounds fun, right?

Now, i'm going to bring my flip camera to the rock-a-thon and record some of the things that go om, and put it on my youtube, and even embed it here. I don't have a laptop, so I can't get on the blog from school, but i'll most likely be tweeting throughout the day. @tim95f in case you didn't see my other posts. But the thing is, I dropped my flip from the top of a fire tower a few weeks ago. It still records, but the screen is all messed up and it freezes if you hold it wrong. I'm looking into getting a new one.

I also put some new videos on YouTube, they're just me and my brothers, Kevin and Tucker, messing around in our room. Here's the links: A Word From Our Sponsor and Our Product Song. Check them out!

See ya soon, internet!

Anyone Miss Me?

I hadn't blogged in five days, did anyone miss me? I doubt it, considering I still don't have any followers.

So, first order of business. The dance last Friday was pretty epic, but nothing particularly interesting or funny happened. I just wanted to say I had a good time.

Secondly, I got to use an actual Bari Sax at Jazz Band tonight, before now I've been practicing on an alto. The first thing I thought when I saw it was "this thing is freaking huge!" Second thing: "That's what she said." If you've ever seen or played a baritone sax, you'll know what I mean.

Now here's something I never mentioned before. I have a part in my school's production of The Wizard Of Oz. I play the Tin Man. Now, auditions were a little over a month ago, and the show opens in like four weeks, and in my opinion, THAT'S NOT ENOUGH TIME. Sorry, but I just had to voice my frustration about it somewhere.

Well, that's all I have too say for now, I'll blog again in at least a week.

Haircut, LOL

So today I got my haircut. That's all I have to say in this post.

-Tim

LOL, just kidding!
Actually, there's not that much going on for me to talk about, except there's this dance at my school I'm going to tomorrow night. And I am really pumped! I'm totally going to ask the DJ to put on What Is Love by Haddaway and bob my head like the guys from Night At The Roxbury. I love that movie. When I turn 21, me and my best friend are going club hopping in Miami. That's how awesome we think that movie is.

And on the subject of the dance tomorrow night, my agenda is pretty much booked the next four weekends. I've got the dance, then a turkey dinner to support the marching band (we're going to Virginia, so I have to raise some money), then the rock-a-thon (more details in future posts), and finally I get to play baritone sax with the jazz band at a restaurant in Ogunquit, which my first performance on bari sax, so wish me luck!

I've got to think of an original closing for my posts now, and then my blog will be even more awesome.
