  1. What do you want? And why should I even consider listening to you?
  2. "We made it through this though. We can probably make it through anything else. It can't get that much worse." Insa was quiet for a moment. "I think it will be alright." Hey. What do you want? Calm down girl. I'm just checking in. Uh-huh. What do you want? Why would I lie to you? I want to know how you're doing. I'm fine. Wonderful! Ready to go? See. Not just checking in. Never just checking in. Go where? Home. I am home. This is home now. ...So you're just never gonna go back? Maybe eventually. But not now. I'm not ready for that. But what's the point of staying here? Not much point in being here. They don't really need you're help with anything. I want to be here though. You actually care about the people here don't you? Yeah. Why wouldn't I? Nothing good ever happens for those people you care about remember? It's probably best if you just leave and forget. I can help you forget and move and do better more important things. I... Shut up. Just go away. I want to be here. "It'll be okay. At least eventually."
  3. Pretty sure more girls had extreme crushes on him when he was shorter....
  4. 43 minutes? I think not.
  5. I find this comment really funny.
  6. Is there anyone who can explain to me what the Squeeze/Sandwich Theorem is how I'm supposed to use it to find the limits of things?

    I'm really confused, and tired. I don't have the energy to sit down and watch a video on it. It'll just put me to sleep.

    If anyone knows and could explain it to me that would be very nice. If not don't feel bad or anything I'm sure I'll figure it out soon.

      It they're close, you'll have an range for the limit based on the inequality. But they have to be equal for you to be certain of the value.

      Okay. Thank you so much.

      You are very welcome. I hope my explanations made sense. Feel free to ask me if you ever need math help.

  7. Well then I guess that's not an option.
  8. .... Fine. Is there a way for me to just like admit defeat?
  9. 13 hours at school!!

    It was lovely.

    Somewhat painful and really hard to get through but... its fine.

    I definitely didn't cry... twice....

    Welp. 

    No matter what happens this is what my week looks like and... yay!!

      That's a long day. Were there at least good parts?

      Our choreographer has a 3 year old son. He's adorable. I had lots of fun with him yesterday and more so today.

    4. Edema Rue

      Edema Rue

      Our director has a 2 year old!! It's funny, because the director's wife is the choreographer, so she'll be trying to teach and he'll be like chucking the child into the air in the background and it's great.

  10. Lobby of the New Clinic Insa slowly opened her eyes and sat up. "So then.... how do we move forward?" She looked past Bookwyrm at the statue. "What all are we supposed to forgive and forget? What do we remember and hold on to? And how quickly are we gonna need to be ready to keep going?"
  11. Insa squeezed her eyes shut and didn't open them. She wasn't sure what she would find. She almost didn't dare hope that what she had just felt was real. "Is it... Is it really over?"
  12. I'm a Who!

    And I've been on a happy high for over 12 hours.

  13. I GOT A SOLO/DUET THING FOR GUARD!!

    ...i'm actually rather conflicted about this...

    ...and like its a good thing...

    ...but its a scary thing...

    ...and I'm happy...

    ...but also...

    ...I kind of want to cry.

    Its fine though.

    I'll adjust and be okay.

    Also cast list gets posted at 4:30 today.

    So now I be nervous and stressed about that until its time.

    1. Edema Rue

      Edema Rue

      That's so exciting but also really scary. 

      Cast lists coming up are terrifying. Let us know how it goes!

    2. Wittles

      Wittles

      That's so awesome!

      I have no doubt you'll do great!

    3. Through the Living Hope

      Through the Living Hope

      Congrats! And even though I didn't get the solo I tried out for in our show this year, I have done solos in jazz band before.

      And don't worry about it. I started jazz band in seventh grade and didn't do a solo until eighth grade because I was scared. But every chance I've had since, I've solo'd. It does seem scary at first glance, but it's a lot of fun. I already know you'll do great!

  14. I DON'T KNOW WHATS GOING ON BUT I'M HERE NOW!!!! hi. Also no I'm definitely not. Played it a few times. But not enough to be any sort of good and I could never remember the controls.
  15. I had to do all the makeups and put on contacts and such for a band thing today because guard!!

    But....

    It is so hot...

    And my makeup is not heat proof if that's even a thing.

    So I leave my house and the car ride is fine but I get out of the car and immediately the lipstick like dissolves.

    And I can feel it and then the edges of my makeup follow.

    It was just like why? Why make me put in all this effort just for it to die as soon as I step outside??

    It wasn't good makeup so I'm not like mad or upset about it just a little disappointed. 

    And I had musical auditions today. Tomorrow they announce call backs, and then Wednesday is call backs and Thursday is when they post the cast list. 

    Also I found the music for my favorite ballet like floor routine thing. I'm not sure what its called. But it was for turns and the only way I can think about this song is how I remembered the counts. "Chaîné, Chaîné, Chaîné, and then a Soutenu." And it like went with the music and that's how I remembered what I was supposed to be doing. And now its stuck in my head.

      BAHAHA THAT IS GLORIOUS

  16. Y'all... 

    ...this history teacher....

    I don't know how well I'll make it this year...

    I've learned things yes but they don't feel like things that I needed to know. They've just sort of made me feel somewhat like a bad person? I don't know. I'm just confused. And lost on so many levels.

    I also can't make up my mind about my new choir director. She's different.... and I really miss my old one... so... I don't know.

    I really wanted to take a nap when I got home but then physical therapy and... now I have energy and I feel like I can do almost anything.

    Like rant about things for English.

    Or rant.

    Or maybe even get down choreo for musical auditions... I should probably go do that....

    I'll stop bothering y'all now.

      I had a history teacher like that last year, so I totally feel you

  17. First day of school. Lovely. Wonderful.

    We have a new phone policy which is kind of annoying.

    I'm the only Junior in my math class. The rest of the class are all Seniors. My teacher has pointed it out pretty much every chance he had.

    Also in US History my teacher started talking about how you need to know what you want when you're looking for a significant other and how you should try your best to be what you're looking for. Which was fine and nice and all but... the reason she went on this like 20 minute rant about it was because... its why we have rules?? 

    And now I'm just confused.

      Also with the e-passes if you're gone for more than like 5 minutes and you're in the bathroom they send security after you. 

      And I guess it depends on the person a bit for the 5 minute thing because I swear they said 10 minutes but they sent security after a guy in my class after 5 so....

    3. Edema Rue

      My goodness. I guess Nebraska (you do live in Nebraska right) is much scarier than Utah. We’re so chill, most of my teachers don’t care about phones and a lot of my classes don’t even have bathroom passes.

    4. InfiniteInsanity

      InfiniteInsanity

      Yes Nebraska.

      But um... I think its also good to take into consideration that there are some.... lovely.... things that happen here sometimes give them some reason to be more strict.

      They have maybe gone a little too far with it though. 

      Its all a bit of a headache though.

      With the passes they eliminate the lines in the bathroom during class. Which is kind of nice. I guess.

      We also have to scan into school now with our ids. Which again seems like overkill. 

      But it is what it is I guess?

  18. Yup! Have to get back to normal seminary wake up!!! Best to work my way back slowly! TPBM is listening to music.
  19. How is one supposed to start figuring out the steps to take to start making their way to the future when they have absolutely no idea how to even start? 

    When their plan has been severely challenged enough that it is definitely not right?

    And now its time to start piecing together a new one?

    Where are you supposed to start?

    1. kajsa ㅇㅅㅇ

      kajsa ㅇㅅㅇ

      Give it time. Where do you want to be in the future? How do you see yourself being happy?

      Identify that and work backwards.

  20. Nope. Took a little break inside... and then dinner so no. TPBM has quesadilla ingredients currently in their house.
  21. I have some questions.

    1.  If I eat say 2000 calories a day and then I burn 3/4 of those calories am I actually eating enough food? 
    2. I learned this thing at girls camp. We're all supposed to have a little bit of fat on our stomachs. It's normal. It natural. It actually means you're healthy. So why have we gone so far as to thinking it's not? And not only that putting ourselves down for it? Why? Why? Why?
    3. Why is it so hard to believe that beautiful and pretty are concepts that change and are different to every single person? 
    4. Why is it so hard to believe that even when aren't trying it is very very possible for someone to look at us and think we are pretty or beautiful or hot or handsome or whatever?

    I'm having an argument with myself. I'm afraid the wrong side is kind of starting to seem more appealing. 

    But on the bright side my little brothers are like the cutest things ever right now. They're having lots of fun.

      Insa, I want you to know, that no matter how much we get put down, even if we're doing it to ourselves, there will always be the option to get back up again. I know how you feel, and I've been in a situation similar to yours. You can get through this. Don't believe the tainted version of yourself. Instead, challenge it. I know you can, because I've witnessed you do it before. And I'm just telling you what you have told me so many times before. I believe in you. We love you, Insa <3

      4. Something I've found is the human tendency to put ourselves down. I named this tendancy Mrs. Robertson

      You're the best no matter what. Don't listen to Mrs Robertson, Insa.

      2- I read once on the ye olde internet that a lot of todays standard sizes in woman's clothing were recorded around the time during/after the great depression. So the idea is that our clothing sizes were taken from woman who were half starved, and so a lot smaller. I have no idea if its true or not, but its an interesting theory.

      But whatever the facts are, your beautiful! Because all human beings are beautiful no matter what they look like!

  22. I wrote a new thingy!!! 

    and it's a thing that I can feel justified editing as much as I want to because there will always be things for me to add on!!!

    16 years ago

    I was born
    My parents 
    Performers on 
    entirely different stages
    Court room
    And a real stage
     
    15 years ago
    I didn't know any better
    Still learning the basics
     
    14 years ago
    We moved somewhere new
    Little apartments but we fit
    We fit perfectly
     
    13 years ago
    I took my first dance class
    Leapt across a room
     
    12 years ago
    Danced around my room
    With my friends
     
    11 years ago
    Move again
    And then again
    Made more friends
    And met my brother
    Saw dancers on the stage
    For the first time
    Saw the flags on the field
    for the first time
     
    10 years ago
    I stepped onto the stage
    For the first time
     
    9 years ago
    I started to realize
    The world I lived in
     
    8 years ago
    Ran to the studio 
     
    7 years ago
    To escape
    Makeup, costumes, stage
    Leave it all at the door
    Dance until it hurts
     
    6 years ago
    Add my voice
    And a flute
     
    5 years ago
    Tell me what to do
    And I'll follow
    Critize and critic
    Until it hurts
    And I want to quit
     
    4 years ago
    Started to dance
    Somewhere new
    Sang and danced on stage
    Met some new friends
    And things turned upside down
    Did it all 
    Through the computer 
    Started to hate
    The mirrors
     
    3 years ago
    We all came back
    To reality
    And it hurt
    To breathe through all the masks
    And try to preform
    Hide all the tears
    Keep going
    Leave it at the door
     
    2 years ago
    Started somewhere new
    Quit the studio
    Spent more time on my voice
    Picked up a flag
    Got trapped a few times
     
    1 year ago
    Took a deep breath
    And decided to keep going
    Stay on stage
    Do my best
    For him and me and all of them
    I saw all the pain again
    And again
    And again
    I'd seen it all before
    But this time it shut me down
    And it took more than just me
    To turn the power back on
     
    And now
    I prep to start
    Again
    I've still got
    The stage, makeup, and costumes
    I still try to escape
    But this time
    I have more
