It Won't Be Long

So JSC's choir is going to Vienna in the fall. I originally thought I wasn't going to be able to afford it. Then I figured something out the other day. Next year I'll be living in the college apartments, so I won't have a meal plan. My meal plan is $1400 each semester. The trip to Vienna costs around $1600. So if I take off the meal plan and add Vienna, it will only be $200 more than this current semester. I also won't be paying for a single room which is expensive, and living in the apartments costs less in general. So it would be about the same, if not cheaper than, this semester. So I'll most likely be going to Vienna in November!

I talked to my dad today, and we tried to figure out if I need to file for taxes. Neither of us knew, and none of the people he asked at work knew either. So I called the IRS and found out that I actually don't have to file. Hooray!

My dad also mentioned that my mother is still supremely pissed at me. I don't know all the reasons that she's angry, but she's not answering when I call and won't talk to me. So I don't know if I ever will. I talked to Matt, and he said if things aren't resolved with her by the time I come home for the summer that I can move in with him when I get back from Arizona. So if mom and I don't speak and don't figure things out by the time I get home, I'll be living with Matt for the summer. I know that this will make my dad unhappy, but I don't want to be in a living environment that I'm miserable in. Perhaps he and I can get together one night a week for dinner or something.

Anyway, I'm rambling. I have Urinetown rehearsal tonight, big surprise. Before that though, I'm working on the dance that Tara, Rayshelle, Lorena and I are choreographing for the dance show. I'm so upset that I miss the performances on Idol every week, but maybe I'll get to see some of them tonight if we get out a little early.

That's all the news there is for now. Have a great one!
