FANTASTIC PLASTIC MACHINE

Ian gave me a link to a girl's blog. She is from Barcelona. She had this awesome video. The other is the trailer for The Virgin Suicides. I really like it.

GWAR

I just discovered the metal band Gwar. I have no idea what to think. Its humorous and stupid... twisted and wrong... I really hope people arn't serious about it. I see it as ridiculous but some things are... well they rape a fetus on stage... and so on. I'm really at a loss. It's hard to put my head around. I guess I just have to let it settle or something. Ian thinks they rock.

IAN AND JAMES

Ian is hiding behind James just like I'm hiding behind bug! Thats for you E.

LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS

I had try outs today! I feel pretty confident right now, I just hope that I get called back tomorrow. It is so much fun to perform. I'm hoping to get the part of one of the black doo wop singers. Their names are Crystal, Chiffon, and Ronnett. The audition consists of three parts, you have to sing, read lines and dance. I was number ten.

Here is a photo of Ian and his cat.

HIDING

SPRING MUSICAL

I'm trying out for the spring musical. We are doing Little Shop of Horrors. I really hope I get a part, I love performing and being on stage. I think I have a good chance because the director is double casting. I went to a music practice this afternoon. Basically they give out some songs from the show and people who are interested get to have some experience, learn the words and tunes before they audition. Sofa and I were late of course. She went to talk to one of her teachers about swapping classes and the next thing you know we are swapping music through Jasper (my jump). Try outs are on Tuesday, call backs are on Wednesday.

IAN

Ian is mine. He is cute and I love him. DINO!

FIN

SENIOR

I just recently got my senior pictures taken by a photographer. I put them into my iphoto so I could make a slideshow to show my parents. I showed them all of the photos and them made my own file of the ones I liked. I think its a little strange that seniors are required to get these fancy photos taken of themselves. But then at the same time it works. It's documenting you before you go off and change everything. Your leaving a piece of yourself at a certain time behind. Like a time capsule. This is me, looking my best, during my last year of high school. Can you believe I've made it? Can you believe how grown up I'm am? In the next few years this time capsule will transform into a young naive girl who still has to experience the world on her own. Or maybe it's just portraying "the best years of my life." I never liked high school much, but I can see why people miss it. It's a huge part of the life you'll be leaving behind. It's a place you've grown comfortable with. It's a place where you can be close to all your securities. The friends you've know , your parents, your house, your car, your siblings, your town. You are tied into a place where everyone is on the same level taking relatively the same classes. It's safe. Despite my understanding, I'm still ready to move one. Live on my own. I still want to be close to the people I love. I want to bring Ian wherever I go. I know I will. Whether he is with me or not. I think I'd also like to bring Sophia, at least for a little while. The others will come and go. I know I'll stay connected to several no matter what. My high school years have helped me grow. I'm ready to move to the next level. Look, I have pictures to prove it.
