it has been a movie kind of weekend. last night was mr. smith goes to washington, which put me in the mood to change the world. this afternoon i went to see over the hedge with my family, which put me in the mood to go crazy and be ridiculous. now, i just finished watching runaway bride, and i just want to go find my soulmate. i love movies that, when you finish them, you want nothing other than to be immersed in the whole idea of them.

but really, right now, and all day, i've been in the mood to dance. i need dan or michael or sam, and i need to blast buttercup or twentysomething or layla. either that, or i need a big, empty studio and the pointe shoes i probably haven't worn in over a year. i've just been so motionless for so long. i think even if my mom would let me go for a bike ride it would help (i'm still not allowed to cause you never know when that spleen might burst) although it certainly couldn't hold a candle to a quick swing out, a spin and a dip...

so i just had to say good-bye to my dad for the whole summer. he'll be down in north carolina for the next week and a half, and won't get a chance to come back up here before i go to summer school. it's weird...really weird. i'm starting to realize what exactly summer school means. i mean, it's nine weeks - that's almost a whole real semester at midd. and i'll be going to classes, and doing activities all at midd. and i'll be eating at ross (...yeah, russian school eats at ross. i was quite disappointed.) i mean, it's just as intense as going away for real school...and none of you will be there. and i have to speak russian.

oh, and by the way, i've decided i'll be coming on the blog and e-mailing and stuff about once a week. even in the handbook it says something about how they don't expect you to abolish all communication with family and friends, so i won't feel too guilty about it and i'll definitely talk to you guys. :)

i love you and miss you all!
