"Death is peaceful, easy. Life is harder"

So I saw Twilight today. Actually beats me how we got tickets on the day it's released. It was such a disappointment. I swear the director should go fall in a pond. It. Was. Awful. Well, it was also interesting to see how someone would interpret the book, but it still does no justice. No, don't blame the casting team - everyone's image of Edward is different, most people's Bellas are themselves. It was so bad! It just drives me mad! Also, it was so uncouth, so unnatural, funnily enough. Like there was so much "space" between Bella and Edward. It was just a tad too planned out. The only example I can think of is: "It. Is. Nice." said by Bella. "IT IS NICE"? I swear she is like a robot. I don't think she smiled once in the film. Twilight. Thumbs down.

And on other movie notes, I'm trying to watch all five Harry Potter films over Christmas. I'm also trying to read them all, but I have a whole list of books to read!

I'm finally on Christmas break, which means two weeks of no work. Hurrah! Nothing beats sleeping in 'till ten in the morning! And we had report reading last week. I didn't fail anything! Hurrah!

Challenges
Ten Facts
1. I'm allergic to apples. Not like, deathly alergic or anything. Like if someone ate an apple near me my neck doesn't blow up. But I get a rash for like an hour if I eat one.
2. I used to have a hamster called Holly (Holly the Hamster, har har har) when I was six that lived for four years.
3. I love The Jolly Postmen books. If you haven't read them, I highly recommend all of them.
4. I have this really bad habit of waking up at 3:11 in the morning every day, school day or not. It's annoying, but it's a habit I've just had to live with for years. I don't know why.
5. I have eczema and asthma.
6. My house has a yellow door. I do not know why.
7. People with funny eyebrows make me laugh. It is terrible. Most notably - Sylar from Heroes
8. If I'm talking to someone with the nicest blue eyes ever, I purposely look away, because I have a tendancy to stare at blue eyes.
9. I highly dislike Lindor chocolates.
10. I go into Paperchase (a shop) so much I know the shop assistant's name.

Food
Italian! Because I love cheese, and Italian food is obviously the only reasons why tomatoes exist.

I think I'm going to have like a complete Christmas themed blog thing next week. Partly because I predict I'll be too lazy to actually write anything.
I'm going to say Merry Christmas now, because the next time I blog will be boxing day!
So, Merry Christmas!

P.S. Oreo milkshakes are heaven.

please don't hurt me!

Whew.

My life. It is crazy. I apologize.

Honestly, that's all I can say for being MIA lately. There was the show, and then Thanksgiving, and then finals...but now that's all over and I've got a month off! WOOHOO.

Okay, I'm going to try and go back and answer some questions and do some challenges. I feel so bad you guys, I really sorry. Don't kill me.

TEN FACTS ABOUT MYSELF:
1. I'm a sucker for a nice smile.
2. I'm a jazz singer, or at least fancy myself one. Jazz is what I love the most and I hope that if I wasn't any good at it that someone would have told me by now. So, you know, that's enough qualification for me. :)
3. I can't remember the last time I left the house without mascara on.
4. Cheesecake is the most amazing dessert on the planet.
5. I've sold my soul to the Berry College Theatre Company, and I love it.
6. My boyfriend may not be able to come back to Berry next year, and I'm scared shitless over it.
7. I am naturally attracted to talented people. Theatre, music, art, you know.
8. I am apparently pretty terrible at wrapping presents.
9. I have an addiction to burning mix CDs.
10. Nothing is better than a great classic movie.

FOOD FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE:
Italian food. I will die fat and happy.

FAVORITE MUSICAL:
Anything by Cole Porter is great, as is Gershwin.
Even though I just did it, I still love Company.
Guys and Dolls is also a personal favorite. :)
I'll stop before I go on forever.

CHARACTERS:
God. Don't even get me started.
I would love to be Adelaide in G&D, but Sarah Brown is also a great role.
Of course, what actress doesn't aspire to be Elphaba?
Marta from Company is definitely one of the most fun characters I've played so far.
I would LOVE to be Maggie the Cat from Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.
Beatrice from Much Ado About Nothing is another that's been on my list for quite a while.

PERFUME:
J'adore Dior. No question.

COLOGNE:
Kenneth Cole Black. Someday when I can drop $80 on a bottle, Jordan will get some. :)

GUILTY PLEASURE MUSIC:
I've totally go back to my middle school days and hit up the boy bands. N*SYNC, Backstreet Boys, BBMack, Hanson. Oh, and Spice Girls.

SOMETHING I THINK IS REALLY BEAUTIFUL:
Forgive me, this might be sappy. [that's the boy, in case you were wondering. yes, that's from halloween.]


Okay, so that's about it. Again, I apologize for failing so miserably at this game, but at least for the next few weeks I'll be around. :)

G'night, kids.

Island in the sun

What I wish I were one right now... -sigh-
Song by Weezer. Awesome in the summer, but now it seems to be teasing me almost?

Well! Finals this week. So far I've had two. Orchestra, and Pre-calculus. It's been pretty easy so far. I'm like a math guru, and well, orchestra... easy. Tomorrow I have Advanced Repertory theatre and english. Generally you would think theatre would be easier... but there's a problem. For our final in that class we have to write of rewrite a sketchs for the Having Ulimited Goals assembly. But I am absolutely, completely, and one hundred percent brain dead. I cannot for the life of me think of sketch ideas. All I do is sit and stare at the blinking bar on my page. Any ideas out there? I would love to hear them... you know... before tomorrow at eight. It would be helpful.

Beauty and the Beast is going rather smoothly for me right now. We've got two more days of rehearsal, and finals, before break. So excited. I could use the break so so much.

Alright. So ten facts about myself? This should be fun.
1. I will NOT touch styrofoam. I absolutely hate it. The way it sounds and feels. It's just horrible.
2. I've failed at so many instruments; piano, mandolin, drums
3. I absolutely love vanilla soy milk
4. Thumbelina is one of my favorite movies. I even sing the songs to myself sometimes.
5. I have a very powerful conscience
6. Sometimes I hate the way I look because it reminds me of my abscent mother
7. When I think of working at outback or getting ready to go to college the pit of my stomache drops out and I feel like panicing.
8. I'm totally in love with Epiphany :]
9. Sometimes I dress up even though I'm just at home.
10. I tried to write a novel and my computer ate it.

Weird habits?
When I'm drinking from a glass I lick the rim after I'm done sipping. Does that count? I don't steal pens intentionally.

Oh, and I've been in the process of writing this all day. So new news, I told my brother about Piph. I'm working on the whole 'coming out' bit. [btw, I really hate that phrase. Someone needs to come up with a better phrase] And he was like "Really? Like a girlfriend girlfriend?" and when I confirmed he was like "Oh, cool." and that was basically the end of it. It amazed me how much it did not matter. Which was cool. It shouldn't matter.

My Question- If you had to choose one type of food to eat for the rest of your life what would it be and why? This can be a cultural category, or a type like grain, vege, meat. I'm open to whatever category you come up with as long as there's a reason along with it.

Allow me to invade Monday real fast.

I just want to apologize and let everyone know I'm not dead. I am SO sorry I've been MIA for so long, but there was the show plus finals plus family plus holiday business and I'm a terrible person I'm so so so sorry.

Anyways, I'm on christmas break for the next month-ish, and since I didn't get into the next show at school [I'm not upset or anything, just very thankful for the break], I should have a bit more down time. So you should be hearing from me soon!

Just wanted to drop by and apologize real fast. :)

gary gygax

Ahh listening to Uncle Monsterface sing songs about Dungeons and Dragons just makes me smile a lot.

Today is awesome because I have an 11 day break from work and a two week break from school [soon].
Today I feel lazy.


So this week is final exams, basically giant tests over everything we've learned since August. I hate them. I hate them a lot. But nonetheless I've been studying for ehhh four hours? This semester shouldn't been too horrid.

I believe there was a question of favorite color?
Personally I love sunshine yellow and faded greenish blue.

Random act of kindness: telling people they look good...lol


erhhh I don't feel like blogging today really...


uhh question/challenge: write ten random facts about yourself that we don't know already
