Never read John Jakes' novels. They're horrible because they always kill off your favorite character. First in North and South then in The Rebels! GRRRR!!! I WAS SO PISSED!! *spaz*

Batman Begins is out on DVD! Yay Cillian!

I'm exceedingly busy this weekend.
Friday: Haunted Hay Ride/House
Saturday: Concert and Party
Sunday: Zoo Boo
Monday: Halloween concert

This week is Spirit Week at my school. Today was hat day, tomorrow is PJ day, then tacky day, then Decades day (we are the 50's), and then Opposite day. Monday is Costume day. I have a History and Literature test on Halloween!!! Damn those teachers.

The Phantom of the Opera was amazingly excellent. I adored it; it was so different from the movie, but so similar. I'm so forcing one of my friends to burn the play version onto a CD for me. It was too great watching it from the second row, with no tall people to block my view! The chandiler fell directly above our heads, which was too cool. I mouthed the words the who play, messing up a few times where they were different. The Point of No Return and The Music of the Night are a lot better in the movie, but there was something about the play that was just... amazing. I think it's the feeling of having a connection with the actors... That probably sounds weird, but that's what it felt like. Erik is so similar but so different - it's really weird. He's a lot more volitaile in the play and more violent, while the Gerik is more sensual in his movements and calming, but he didn't have the same feel as the ALW Erik. And I liked that feeling.

Conclusion: I adored the play, but I love the movie just a little bit more because it was what I was introduced to.

(I also got a t-shirt, cap, and 10 dollar program, lol.)

Later!! I still love you all! I'll be commenting sometime soon hopefully.
