Jessica pretty much kicked me out because I was being way too hyper and she wants to sleep, so here I am. Okay, so I am pretty much in a bind. Jess laughs at me and says I'm being hopelessly silly, but I don't really care. Well, usually they keep the boys and girls pretty seperate here. Boys can't go in girl dorms, and vice-versa, and boys and girls have their own classes. But- in the residence lounge, where I am right now, guys and girls mix freely. Not without supervision, but freely, and we girls catch sight of guys between classes and at lunch hall. And there's this guy who's a really great dancer and very good-looking. (AND he's straight. It's sad but most guys in ballet are not.) I don't really even know his name, I just know that his hair is dark brown and he has the bluest eyes I have ever seen. The downside? Practically every girl in my suite is in love with him. Oh, what is his name? It's something with a J... not John... oh, I don't know. Speaking of John... well, he's a major problem in all of this. I've been here for quite a while and I've only gotten ONE lousy email from him. I dont' know what's wrong. The twins don't speak of him in their emails at all, which I find strange because John is Jarrod's best friend.  It could have something to do with what happened the day I left for SAB.. but no, it couldn't, cause I don't know how the twins coulda found out... Unless John told them.. eek, that would be bad.. okay, sorry, just random thinking to myself moment there ignore it. Anyway, I'm hopelessly torn up about all fo this, especially since I only got truly interested in boys about a year ago and my first and only crush so far has been John, so this is really all-new for me. Jess is right, I AM sad... oh well. Any advice will be accepted! Okay, I gotta go eat cause my stomcah is rumbling ..haha the guy at the next computer is lookign at me strangely cause my stomach just complained REALLY loudly.... So I'll post later! Toodles! NESSA   http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/whitexrose/396989/ Mon, 24 Sep 2007 19:32:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/whitexrose/396989/ Well, I've been at The Academy for a while, and I LOVE it. The work is exhausting, but way worth it. I have Ballet Technique on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday,  Pointe on Tuesdays, Variation on Tuesdays, and Music on Saturday mornings. I share a room with a girl named Jessica. We are getting to be pretty good friends, actually. The dorm building is AMAZING! There'scoin-operated washers and dryers, a kitchen, a library, a computer lab, and two  (TWO!) TV lounges that anyone can use at any time. We have 24 hr adult supervision, and have to sign in/out, plus the cerfew is pretty strict, but otherwise it's really sweet. We have somethign that's called "Fun Fridays," where we all go to see a broadway musical or a performance done by the NYC Ballet Company, or just go see the sights. Sometimes we go to soup kitchens, etc, b/c they believe we need to have a "Well rounded education." I enjoy it, actually, but a lot of the girls moan and complain. There's a program called DANCE here, and it's for our education. we all have to do it- DANCE stands for Diversity, Alcohol & Drug Education, Nutrition & Wellness, Community Service, and Explorations.. fun, i know. Oh, the Alcohol & Drug Ed is the worst! We get lectured by a bald guy on the evils of that sort of stuff and how we can ruin our careers as dancers by drinking. I mean, it's good that they're doing that, but why does the guy ahve to be so FREAKING BORING!?!?!?! lol There's so much more, but it's cerfew, and i gotta get up to my dorm. So I'll recognise that I was awarded:   I thank you, ALadyBug, for the wonderful award: I give it to Leopardlover for being a great friend, Gemstone for always caring, Sweetpotato for always commenting, and Guardedmodesty for her wonderful friendliness to everyone. Well, I REALLY gotta go, see ya! NESSA p.s- my mom is in her fifth month and getting bigger! John emails me every day, Jeremy is now in college, Aliyah and Andrew have actually been gettign along lately, and Jarrod has a band! Life is good! http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/whitexrose/393621/ Tue, 18 Sep 2007 21:45:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/whitexrose/393621/ I don't have very much time to write, but.. Dance school starts Monday, I'll be in NY for the next nine months. Everything has been so hectic- Jeremy moved out, I've been packing like CRAZY, mom is into her fourth month, Aliyah and Andrew's birthdays were yesterday.... whoo, I'm worn out!

I'm sorry, but I've been really busy.... I have HUGE news tho! My mom is pregnant! We found out last week, but I haven't had time to write. it's really crazy around here... guess what else??????? I'M FIFTEEN AS OF TWO DAYS AGO!!!!! Louisa and Grandfather are still here- as a matter of fact Louisa is looking over my shoulder and correcting my spelling as I speak!  Louisa and Jarrod are inseperable. haha, Louisa wants me to erase that but I won't! I think it's amazing what she's doing for my brother... I love her so much! So much stuff has been going on. Jeremy has started a band. He's the lead singer/guitarist, Jarrod's the bassist, and John is the pianist... Speaking of John, he's amazing! He called me yesterday, all excited, because he had listened. Our conversation went something like this- "Hey, is Vanessa there?"  "This is she."  "Hey! Guess what?" "hey, John. What?" "Well, have you ever listened?" "What do you mean?" "I mean, just sit outside and listen. Be really quiet and perfectly still and just.. listen. Have you ever done that?" "I don't think so, actually. Why?" "I did that today, Nessa, and it was amazing! I think- I think I might have actually heard God!" "Really? that's so cool, John!" "I know, it blew me away... you should go outside and listen." "now?" "Yes, now, go listen! And call me back if you hear anything!" Then he hung up... and you know what? When I got away from the chaos which is our house and just sat and listened, it really was amazing. And even though I didn't hear God speak to me, I found it easier to talk to him when I was out there listening. It was easier to connect... It was awesome... I highly recommend it! Oop, gotta go, Grandfather's calling me. but hopefully I'll be able to update more often.. there's so much more to tell you but that must wait for another time. Go listen for me, will ya? and tell me what you hear... I would really like to know..

There's a whole lot more, actually, so I'll try to share one wiht you any time I can. Guess what!?!?!?!?! My birthday is at the end of this month!!!! I am going to be fifteen, I'm so excited! We aren't going to have a huge party or anything, but Louisa and Grandfather are coming back up from Chile! I'm really happy about that, especially since it's made a huge change in Jarrod. He's been going around whistling and doesn't yell at us if we bother him. It's almost as if he's walking on air- everything just rolls off his back, and he's actually leaning towards the sappy side!!! It's so sweet to watch! Jeremy is too caught up in his own problems to really care about anything. Apparently all the girls in the dance studio think he's.... ahem, uh, "happy" if you know what I mean.....  and won't have anything to do with him. So right now he's sulking. Hmm... other news... OH!  Jeremy and Jarrod's birthday is next week. They'll be eighteen!!!! WOW!!! Talk about scary! Jarrod has already sent in some college applications, I'm crossing my fingers and hoping that he gets accepted somewhere! Jeremy has decided to move out, and is looking for apartments. I keep on reminding him not to count his chickens before they hatch, but he scoffs at me, saying "you're only a little fourteen year old girl. What would you know?" Ya know, he's getting pretty nasty recently. I wonder what's up? Anyway, Life is topsy turvy..... I have much more to tell you, but I gotta go, so I'll write again soon. See ya!

I know I haven't writeen an entry in a long time, but John wants me to post this song that I wrote about two days ago. I'll post again later to tell you what's all been going on in my life.   Listen I open my mouth But the words won’t come out I can’t say what I feel Do you even know what you’re talking about?   Your speech fills up my brain I have nothing to say You accuse me of silence If I don’t think before I speak It’ll push you farther away   Why can’t you just stop and think Silence is good, too I wish I knew you inside Can’t you see what’s wrong?   You speak the words in my ear As quickly as they come Whispering sweet nothings You aren’t the only one   I’m tired of assumptions I’m sick of stupid lies I just don’t really care There’s no use coming back To something just not there   Why can’t you just stop and think Silence is good, too I wish I knew you inside Can’t you see what’s wrong?   Shut up now Be quiet please I have something to say You’re not for me, you never were Not one more word from you I’m talking now so you just need To hush up, dude, And hear.. http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/whitexrose/354188/ Mon, 9 Jul 2007 16:52:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/whitexrose/354188/
