Halloween....

It REALLY doesn't feel like Halloween. No pumpkins, no trick-or-treating, not even a costume....this is so weird. I really wish I could go trick-or-treating, but.....it's 11 o'clock.............

It's just that for the first time I feel.....wicked

You know what I love?
PLAY!
especially...
MUSICALS!
with
DANCING!
and
SINGING!
I'd be a horrible critic, beacause I love all the plays I've seen.
Okay.
WICKED.
Yes, the mega awesome play of the decade. (Is that right?)
I first saw it in London, when I went to England, Ireland, and Wales on a school trip.
I was literally crying my eyes out once it was over.
So touching.
(The girl I was sitting with was like, "Are you crying?!?!? Here, let's hit our heads together, it'll make you feel better!" It didn't. It just made my head hurt. >.<)
I had started reading the book, but had stopped a little over halfway beacause it was really..........inapropriate for someone my age.
I was a little nervous about the play, beacause I was afraid It would be as innapropriate as the book.
IT WAS EPIC.
It was totally different from the books.
In the books, I really liked Boq.
After seeing the play, I sort of really hated him.
I felt so sad for Glinda at the end of the play, and so, so, SO happy for Elphaba and Fiero. I also really hated Dorthy. I mean, she stole Nessa's shoes.
THATS JUST WRONG!
Kristen Chenoworth has always been one of my favorite actors and singers, and I loved Glinda. Well, except for the whole, "Get her sister" Thing.
Naturally, Madame Morrible was horrible.
I loathed her so much when she dropped a house on Nessarose.
After we got back home, I saw it again in Durham.
Once more, amazing.
Wicked truely is the musical of the decade.

My Last Soccer Game

Oh yeah, this morning, at my soccer game, we won.
So our soccer team is undefeated this season.
It's a rec team, and this is the last season i could play beacause I pass the age limit by the next season.
So it's pretty cool to go down undefeated.
Plus I scored a goal.
It was pretty muddy though.
And I had pretty bad news before I got to the game, but....yay!
Then my friend and I sold some drinks.
And then i went home.
And then i watched cartoons.
Then I went to see Billy Elliot.
And then I bored you by typing about everything that happened to me today.
Adios!

All You Really Have To Do Is Shine!

Then i feel a change
like a fire deep inside
something best in me wide open
inpossible to hide
and suddenly i'm flying
flying like a bird
like electricity
electricity
sparks inside of me
and i'm free
i'm free!

SPOILER ALERT
Guess what musical I just saw?
BILLY ELLIOT
BILLY ELLIOT
BILLY ELLIOT
OH MY GOSH IT WAS SO AWESOME.
And it had such an amazing impact.
One second you'd be crying, the laughing, then be tense from the pressure.
I really wish they didn't cuss as much in it.
I mean seriously, SO MUCH CUSSING.
But it was so beautiful.
And now I wish I could dance.
I absolutely loved Billy's friend Michael.
Yeah, the gay guy.
I loved the musical number for "Expressing Yourself"
I mean, two guy in skirts and dresses dancing?
It was so funny.
Then the Letter from Billy's mom, man I was crying.....
It was so sad!
And then The angry dance was so intense, i thought he was going to kill himself!
All in all, it was so fabulous.
Except, you know, all the cussing.
I LOVE HOW BILLY KISSED MICHAEL IN THE END.
I really wish the play could have continued.
I wish that I could have seen Billy at the school.
But you know, when they did the final dance for the......bowing and stuff made me forget about being sad. (What's that called?)
It made me really sad when I learned the miners would all be unemployed.....
And I liked their accents.
OH! And when Billy jumped off the piano and did that big flip thingy, I was so amazed, I mean, that was AWESOME!
I highly recomend this for everybody....unless you have small children with you.
All the cussing really wasn't nessisary.
BUT THE PLAY WAS FABULOUS.
I loved the random little kid.
Oh, and the "Merry Christmas Maggie Thatcher" performance was so hilarious, especially the giant puppets.
SO THE PLAY WAS AWESOME.
(Get the idea?)
So......
GIVE 'EM THE OLD RAZZLE-DAZZLE
TURN ON THE OLD PIZZAZ!
I do not own Billy Elliot.

Blood and Keyboards

Since it's the day before halloween weekend, i came to school with lipstick-blood dripping from my eye and mouth and neck...
I scared quite a few people.
There were a lot of really neat costumes on others as well. One girl was both an angel AND a devil, and a few cats and a native american.
It was pretty funny beacause a few people thought my make-up was real for a moment.

RANDOM QUESTION:
What do we have the 'Num Lock' key on the keyboard?
I mean, if they expect us to use the keypad, then shouldn't we be able to at our own free with without it......stopping?

Youknowthatshowiusedtosayiwouldneverwatchwheniwaslittle

You know that show I used to say I would never watch when I was little?
No you don't, you probably didn't know me when i was little.
So when i was little, i was a Pokemon kinda kid.
I loved loved LOVED watching cartoons in the morning. and wating bacon covered in mapple surup. Mmmmmm, that makes for a good saturday.
And I thought the show 'Yu-Gi-Oh!' was pretty stupid.
I never understood it and i guess i thought it was sorta boring.
The most I ever got from it was that the Blue Eyes White Dragon was pretty epic and that The main charecter totally overused The Dark Magician.
Plus I always supposed that since I loved Pokemon, I whouldn't watch Yu-Gi-Oh! beacause i figured they were like, cartoon rivals.
So now, theres a boy at my lunch table who talks about Yu-Gi-Oh! a lot.
And since hes my friend and i wished i knew what he was talking about, I started watching the show......
AND ITS PRETTY AWEOSME!
I love cartoons. I really love cartoons. And Anime. And Manga.
But that goes without saying, doesn't it?
Of course, The Blue Eyes White Dragon is still pretty epic, and Yugi does use the Dark Magician pretty often (With a good reason: IT'S AWESOME), I have a new respect for the show. I'm amazed by the charecters' stratagies, and now i sorta wish I had some Yu-Gi-Oh! cards....
I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh!

Halloween?

I feel pretty lame for not having a halloween costume. I told one of my friends i would cosplay with her as Dib and Gaz from the show 'Invader Zim', since Gaz is her favorite charecter, and Dib is mine, but.....I didn't make a costume. Now, halloween is 3 days away and I probably wont even go trick-or-treating. (I always go at someone else's neighborhood, and no one has invited me) Last year I made my costume pretty quickly, in a hotel. (Long story) Shame.

Guess Who Went to Old Salemn And It Was Awesome!?

I don't think this title is structurally correct....
On a school trip yesterday I went to Old Salemn.
That's in North Carolina.
It was pretty dang awesome.
I had a lot of fun with fun people, and its really beautiful there.....i took lotsa pictures.
After Old Salemn, everone went to this GIHUGIC (okay, I know thats not a really word.....) mall. It was like, 3 and a half stories toll, and it was really cool. We all ate in the food court. People shared Cajun food with me. :)
I also learned what Cajun food is.
"You may now fondly hug the bride."
Yup, that's about all.

My Awesome Soccer Team is Awesome

OKAYOKAYOKAY
So my dad needs a heart transplant.....
I know....it's horrible.
If he doesn't get one, he is going to die.
...
Yeah, let that sink in.
So the hospitals won't put him on the heart transplant list until we've raised a certain amount of money. Even with our insurance, it's still WAYYYYYYY over our budget. D:
My friend heard about this and she devised a plan to have our soccer team hold a bake sale.
Since our last name is Newhart, we called our efforts 'A new <3 for Newhart'
Yup. Pretty ironic.
So most everyone cooked a lot of food and we got to the soccer field last saturday and sold sold sold sold sold played in our soccer game sold sold sold waved signs around sold sold sold some more sold and sold.
We raised over a thousand dollars, were in the newspaper, and were on TV.
Plus We've been undefeated this season. ;)
(Forget the fact that we're a recreational team and the other teams may be pretty young......)
It was very tiering....and hot. We went out to the road and waved some signs around, and they were laying out a new road at the moment. Every time the steamroller-thing would drive by, the whole ground would start vibrating and steam would dance across the road. Sufficient to say, it was pretty darn epic. The edges of the road hadn't completely dried, and it was pretty weird.
The whole event was pretty amazing, other than the heat.
The I went and got pizza, took a shower, then had my first babysitting job.
This is the newspaper article:
And this is the news clipping:
EDIT: Uhhh.....My links don't work. Oh well.
