Is it sad that I can already give a basic run-down of what I'm doing every month for the first 6 months and it's only January 1st? XD

Here it goes...

January
- 18th: My birthday
- 24th: 'Mamma Mia!' in Berlin

February
- 2nd: Winter Break (lasts a day)
- 14th: Valentines Day/1 year anniversary of the day Mike and I met

March
- 2nd: One year anniversary of the day I asked Mike out
- 6th: Katy Perry in Hamburg
- 8th through 13th: Mid-year seminar in Dresden
- 30th through April 15th: Spring Break

April
- 5th: My brother's 19th birthday
- 16th: Mike's 19th birthday

May
- Nothing as of yet; subject to change-

June
- 9th through 19th: Praktikum bei dem Marum (Like an internship that everyone in the 11th class here has to do)
- 25th: Last day of school

July
(aside from getting hammered nightly...)
- 11th: I go back to America
- 12th through the 14th: Re-orientation in Washington DC (apparently I'm going to forget what it's like to be American)
- 15th: Officially back in Alpena
- 16th through whenever it's finished: Re-register for school, pick classes, buy MacBook, etc...

I have no idea what happens afterwards since I'm not in Alpena yet.

So what's going on with all of you?

Look at you all, planning out your year so far in advance. Overachievers.

I've got the first 8 months!

January
Snow days? Please?
12th: Start rehearsal for play at my local community theatre.
17th: I'm on TV!
23rd-ish: Go down to sister's house to watch myself and the quiz bowl team on TV... on the Internet. The only thing better than kicking scholastic ass is kicking scholastic ass in high definition.
28th: Day out of school for student organization thing. Yay!
31st: School Dance. Yay for being in the closet.

February
More snow days?
23rd: Presidents' Day. Day off from school!
25th: Make another television appearance on lame PBS quiz show. Win?
27th: Day out of school for student organization thing. Yay!

March
3rd: Turn 18. Enjoy new privileges at work, such as standing on a ladder, pushing a yellow button, and only getting a 15-minute break.
13th-22nd: Appear in final play before college at local community theatre.
23rd: Enjoy newfound freedom after play ends!

April
3rd: Another day out of school for student organization thing. Yay!
11th-ish: Boring chorus trip, the main event of which is to look at a freaking pipe organ. If I wanted to check out a massive organ, I could damn well do it here at my computer!
Whole month: Frantically try to piece together a website for student organization thing?

May
2nd: Chorus concert. Enjoy never having to perform for jerk of a director again.
9th: Prom. Again, yay for being in the closet.

16th: Band concert. Enjoy never having to perform for jerk of a director again.
21st-24th: Whale watching trip to Cape Cod, Maine. Yay!!!

June
2nd: Frantically finish writing valedictorian speech. Ugh.
3rd: Graduate!!!
4th onward: work, work, work.

July
Work, work, work.

August
Quit job.
Come out of closet.
Leave for college. Enjoy meeting new people, especially those who are male.

January:
