I Guess I Shouldn't Complain But...

I may explode any second.  LITERALLY if I could say one common challenge that I have over and over and over and over again all the time every single time without fail.
It would be that big important events to me that I wish to go to, ALWAYS HAPPEN ON THE SAME DAY, AT THE SAME TIME.

C'mon man!

I need to start writing them down because it happens all the time. Off the top of my head the most recent one I can think of was in July.

I had my New York trip, the same time American Idol tryouts were in SLC (which I've just always wanted to try out for), AND Jenny was hanging out with Ham and Squints from the Sandlot while I was in New York. This is what I mean by I shouldn't complain, but you have to admit it's quite annoying that my "dreams" like to occur simultaneously.

So all the colleges that I am applying to, I am applying to because of their Musical Theatre department. To get into these, I have been planning on going to LA in Feb where all the east coast colleges come to have auditions on the west coast. So I'm pluggin along, planning to attend these auditions on February 8th. So I go to write it down in my calendar and guess what. It is closing night for the show I'm in Hairspray. Yes on February 8th. When I went to put THAT in my other calendar, would you like to guess what else? Prom. Yes Prom is also on February 8th. Isn't that wonderful. I know. Well anyway; if I can't audition for these schools there is no point in me going there. And I just spent every waking hour of this week in my counselor's office working on my dang application and with my English teacher working on my dang essay to submit today. And today is when I find out I can't even go to the auditions!!!

Yes, they have other auditions in other places.
So maybe it's technically possible for me to audition in NYC, but the chances of my mom letting me are not great...just cause she was only gonna let me go to LA cause my friend is going to and her mom was going to drive. So maybe possibly if I come up with the money for a plane ticket she might let me.

One of the counselors at my school is the nicest and most helpful lady. I was telling her this predicament, and she said "Isn't this your dream? you have to go to NY and audition! This sounds an awful lot like the plot of a Disney movie." Haha anyway that made me smile.


If this fails I'll just go live on an island.
