Yesterday, I came back home from my 2 and a half week trip with my family and family friends to Egypt, Jordan, and Israel. Some of the younger kids were writing day by day journals, but I decided to take a more holistic approach.

This weekend, there was a production of RENT at the Hollywood Bowl directed by Neil Patrick Harris. When I first heard about this production, I was immediately excited and had high hopes for it, even though the chances of me being able to go see it were slim to none. When I heard who had been casted as Mimi and Maureen, Vanessa Hudgens and Nicole ( Read more... )

Yesterday,
All my troubles seemed so far away.
Now it looks as though they're here to stay,
Oh, I believe in yesterday.

In July,
All the troubles seemed to pass me by.
Now it looks like they'll be here for a while,
Oh, I believe in Oxford rain.

Unfortunately, I'm stuck in Arizona (sad, right?) for Canada Day, so I had to do all my celebrating by myself. I'm very patriotic, so it sucks that I can't show it on the one day that counts, and even more that I'm in the States, where everyone is getting ready for the 4th of July. What's even worse? I hate the States. This hatred has been ( Read more... )

I just came to say that I downloaded a new mood theme, made by the amazing mooners over at her community, mooners_icons. They're all Rachel/Jesse themed, which is still my favorite pairing for Rachel, even though the Glee writers totally messed up their relationship just to get her back with Finn. Ah, whatever, I'll just get my Lea/Groff fix by ( Read more... )

Okay, the back 9 of Glee has officially sucked ass, except for like 2 episodes. This is so depressing, I loved this show so much for the first 13, and then everyone and their dog started watching, so Fox decided to milk the cash cow for all it's worth. From the sounds of it, it isn't getting any better next season. *sigh* Anyways, here's my ranking ( Read more... )

Good evening. It has come to my attention that it's been over a month since I've last blogged. Huh, imagine that. Well, I can guarantee you that there is a reason for this. Over Christmas Break, I started writing a story out of boredom. I wrote 5 chapters of it before I got writer's block, then basically just forgot about it. Around that time (well ( Read more... )

So, I am writing this from the poolside of sunny Maui. The weather is pretty good, except for the fact that it is so freaking windy. Like, so bad that I felt like I was in a tornado for part of the day yesterday. It’s hard to go in the pool without freezing your ass off, but that’s okay because then I can just sit by the pool reading and on my ( Read more... )

HELL YES SPRING BREAK! I am so happy, I can't wait to go to Hawaii and get away from everything. Except for my English project... shit. I mean, it was supposed to be due last Friday, and there was no way I could've had it done by then, so I'm thrilled that my teacher gave us an extension, but still... I just don't want to do it. So, since I last ( Read more... )
