Cotton Candy and a letter to the snow gods

Hey blog readers. I know, I know. It's been way too long. But better late than never, right? I know you've missed me and I've missed you. :-) School of course is always bringing me down--but I think it's important to enjoy what I can because I still have two more years of high school. That is a LOT and I need to not just try to get through it, but actually experience it. I guess words are easier than actions, but still, I think that's a good philosophy.

Anyway! This weekend was relatively good. Friday was definitely an entertainment packed day. I first saw New Moon (yes, yes, the Twilight saga) and it wasn't actually too horrid. I mean, true, no one can act in the movie to save their lives. I relate the experience of seeing it to eating cotton candy. It's not really healthy, it really doesn't have much substance besides sugar and fluff, yet it is so delicious and addicting. True, most of the guys are shirtless 70 percent of the time, but I'm not complaining and by hearing all the screams from all the pre-teen girls in the theatre, I don't think they're complaining much either. . .

I have a confession to make: In middle school, I sadly had a huge Twilight phase in which all I read and talked about was vampires and werewolves. I would quote cheesy metaphors from the books and I would read a chapter each night before bed (yes, that's right. I read them again and again). So I justified watching this fluffy movie because it was necessary to fufill my middle school obsession. Okay, that is not much of a confession because if you knew me at all a few years ago, you would definitely know about my obsession. Okay, and maybe it wasn't middle school. Maybe freshman year? Let's just say middle school for my sake. I used to be Team Edward but I might be leaning towards Team Jacob just because of Taylor Lautner. Mmmm.

Okay, so back to Friday. Amanda and I then rushed to go to the opera. The opera was called Cosi Fan Tutte. It was hilarious. I would have never thought myself to be a opera lover, but I love the opera. This opera was written by Mozart and the music was amazing and the story line was hilarious. Thank goodness for the screen with the translations from Italian. Without the translations, it would not be as great. I love how modern humor is relatively similar to how humor 200 years ago was. That makes me happy. Go opera club!

So right now I am listening to Eric Hutchinson on repeat and counting down the days until winter break. Literally. Outloud and in my planner. There are about 18-20 days after Thanksgiving break until Winter break. And then this coming week, I only have two more days of school. Yes! Screw the veterans, give me more pumpkin pie time. I seriously am kidding. I am very thankful for the veterans who give their time to help us. I am, I am. I should be getting back to studying bio, because that is oh so fun. I hope you know that I am being sarcastic.

You know what I'm ready for? A snow day. Asap. That would be excellent.

Dear Snow Gods,
I am ready for it to snow. Thanks a bunch. I'm getting quite impatient.

Sincerely,
Your favorite impatient girl,
Aviva

Have a lovely evening everyone.

You know it's a palindrome kind of world.
