HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

So...I'm being lazy and don't want to figure out how to link this video, but go to Google Video and type in Thriller and watch the classic music video of Michael Jackson and thriller. Growing up in my dance studio we would always dance to this song on Halloween and have a lot of fun. I've even learned the dance a couple of times. :-D So! much fun!!!

I love Halloween. It's a great time to dress up, eat chocolate, and have fun! This year I didn't really dress up as anything per se, but I kinda look like a character off the movie Hairspray. I'm wearing sweet sparkly tights, a skirt with a beaded necklace to match and a sweet auburn colored wig. I've always wanted red hair, and so this makes me excited. I've gotten some really funny reactions already today. My boss dressed up as a witch with a fake nose and wig and everything. It's awesome. I love my job.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

....

huh. For some reason I really feel the need to write something here, but I don't know what to write about. I could write about how I hate my economics class, but I love all my other classes. I guess I could also get on my soap box and complain about a few things to do with ballet, but it's really not that bad so I could just say that ballet is fantastic and talk about my awesome show that is coming up soon. I suppose I could always talk about my dating life...but I think I'll just let it slide today and just to keep you from wondering tell you that I'm dating someone absolutely fantastic. I could also always talk about work and how I love my job and I get to go and get free samples of new office supplies which I am rather excited about. Honestly though, other than that there isn't much to write about. School is good, Ballet is good, Life is good.....what more could a girl ask for??? So I'll just sit here, staring at my blank page before me and think of what to tell the world. I guess the only thing I have for you, dear Internet, is that Alishka is extremely content with life. I'm happy, and what more could I ask for? I submit that the answer is nothing. Have a great day y'all. ciao.

Frozen

Today, I froze. Seriously. It wasn't that cold this morning when I left for rehearsal, it was slightly colder when I came home from rehearsal, and then it was time for the football game. CPM and I bundled ourselves up and headed over to the stadium to watch the cougars rock out agains Eastern Washington University. It was cold and was kind of drizzling, but nothing horrible, and I was hoping for nice weather. As the game went on the sun came out, and we even saw some blue skies for a little while. The sunshine felt good, but it was definitely still cold.
After half time the temperature started to drop considerably. At this point we were winning 21-7. It was already a great game. :) Then...it started to rain, the rain then turned into a frozen rain, and then it started snowing! The flakes were small, but it was snowing. Before I knew it, I was in the LaVell Edwards Stadium in the middle of a white-out snow storm.
It was pretty intense. CPM and I braved the cold snow until the very end of the game and witnessed the Cougars pouncing their opponent 42-7. It was fantastic. The snow stopped pretty quickly after the game ended and our walk back was uneventful.


It just started snowing again. I'm definitely not a fan of snow in October. Snow in December, yes...but October? Come on people!!!!! It needs to feel like fall! :P Oh well. I guess I'll survive.

Life is good. We're getting closer and closer to the show, I'm really excited about it. It's going to be fantastic. :)

I think that's all. Yep, that's all. Have a good weekend y'all. Ciao.

*sigh of content*

What a weekend and it's not even over yet!!!

Yesterday was a great day. I was worried that rehearsal was going to feel like a million years, but it didn't. It actually went pretty quickly and was rather enjoyable. Minus the fact that my triceps are extremely sore. I do a lift in the piece we were learning, and we kept trying to get the lift right and that meant doing it a bazillion times, thus the sore arms. Oh well. I'll get over it.

I also was extremely productive yesterday. Many times when I tell myself I'm going to be productive, it only sometimes works, yesterday it worked!!! I got everything done that I thought I would and was still ready for my date on time. :D

I went to Final Cut last night. It was really good. I had never been before and I was impressed by the films that were presented. I also watched "Waking Ned Devine" last night. What a great movie! It had a lot of humor, a little bit of a love story, and gorgeous Scotland countryside. Ah, what a good movie, plus I had great company as well. :)

Now it is Sunday. I am going home for dinner this evening to celebrate me dad's birthday and that should be fun. :) So pretty much I am extremely content and happy for it. Have a great day y'all.

My new love

My roommate E* has introduced me to my new love: Nutella. Oh my goodness this stuff is A-MAZING!!!! Currently my favorite way to eat it is as a part of a Peanut Butter & Nutella sandwich. I eat it for breakfast and many times as my dessert in the early evenings. :-D My new love consists of chocolaty-haze-lnutty goodness. mm mm. It's fantastic. For more ideas of how me and my new love might get along in the near future see this.
