CGD update

The show was a blast! Lots of things went wrong, but overall it was so much fun. I'm still recouperating, though :P As for how Mark & I did, we won the judges high score, and after the audience vote we were tied with another couple. However, after the tie brake vote from the judges, the other couple won. It was still great, though. As our piece was a lyrical, romantic ballet piece, it's pretty easy to see why the other couple won... they simply out-flashed us with a perkier, showier dance. Oh well. But yeah, I'd forgotten my camera, so I didn't get any backstage pictures, but I will be getting the DVD and hopefully some pictures from the night from friends.
Right now I still have a lot on my plate: planning a trip to London for spring break, planning for when my mom comes, studying for two quizzes coming up this week, doing a paper due on Friday, and studying for exams in general. Oh, and finding a ticket back to Cali! At this point I'm aiming to come home mid-late June (around the 20th or so, methinks) so that I can (finally) get some sun! Chances are I'll spend the entire summer poolside at the hotel or sunbathing in the back yard. Years of getting no sun, and then this year in Ireland, have turned me white :P I miss my tanness.
Anywho, it's St. Patrick's Day, and I have nothing to do. The pubs and stuff will be crazy because there's a huge rugby game going on, and I just don't like the crowds. There's a parade and festival going on, but I don't really want to go to that, either, since it's mostly just a tourist trap. So, what am I doing in Ireland on Paddy's Day? Moping around home, cooking corned beef & cabbage & potatoes for dinner, and cleaning my room. Bah humbug. I'm tempted to play third wheel and tag along with Dan and his buddies, but I'd be the only girl and that'd be kinda odd. I don't want to go out with Tara, because she just annoys me, and Jess is not going out tonight. Oh well, TV specials and cleaning it is, then.
