Sounds.
I like sounds.
***************
Walking in snow.
Tires on rocks.
Sizzling of cooking.
My mom’s thudding footsteps.
The creak at the top of my stairs.
The echoing of voices in the rotunda.
The clicks of the keyboard.
The sound of silence.
Pianos.
Instruments in general.
Laughing.
Cars speeding by you.
The sound of snuggling.
Scissors cutting paper.
Breathing.
High heels.
Turning pages of a book.
Thunderstorms.
…just to name a few.
Just the way you look tonight….
If only it were still that easy and beautiful.
Intimation ;) Cheryl kitten!
For whatever reason, both of these things have been broken. Changes, other people, drama, outside forces, whatever. It doesn’t matter.
They’re gone and done. I’ve shed tears for both.
I just want my families back.
So this picture makes me INCREDIBLY HAPPY. I mean, LOOK AT THIS BABY. It’s adorable AND it has down syndrome. I love it :)
In all seriousness though. There are many pictures that make me happy. But there are only a few that you can look at and remember that exact moment. It was so fantastic. Just fantastic.
Hiphopopotamus Vs. Rhymenoceros (feat. Rhymenoceros and the Hiphopopotamus) - Flight of the Conchords
Listen to it. It most definately tickles my fancy.
There are many really. None to artsy and life-changing. But nonetheless important to me.

My favorite book is The Great Gatsby and The Perks of Being A Wallflower.
*Funny Story*
So, in seventh grade, I was obsessed with Jared Padalecki, so much that I looked up all of his ‘favorites’ and I saw that his favorite book was the Great Gatsby. So, I went to the library and checked it out to read it. Yeah, never got passed the first sentence. But then we had to read it these year and I loved it.
It seems that every one of my favorite books have been ones we’ve read in school. It used to be The Westing Game (which is definately number two, if not tie) and I really liked Anthem, no matter how crazy of a bitch Ayn Rand was. So yeah. I love Gatsby.
The Perks of Being A Wallflower: Let me clarify; no, I did not read this because Jessie did. I in fact read it before her and everyone started to know about it. (Sorry Jessie. I just needed to clarify.) This book is beautiful. I mean you know almost every detail in this kid’s life and yet you know nothing because he’s changed all the names and almost everything in it. And his naitivity is beautiful. How he says he feels infinite: his story (parts of it) remind me of my own freshman year and how I loved being accepted by everyone and feeling awesome because of it. It’s all so beautiful and realistic.
OH! The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime! Ok, I’m going to stop before I go change my favorite book to a tie like the rest of my stuff…
Hmmm….
Again, I THINK it’s a tie between Friends, Gilmore Girls, and Bones. I mean, I loveGossip Girl, but it doesn’t measure up to the others. It’s more there for dramatic effect.
Friends: If you have never seen this show, seriously, go kill yourself. I mean, I just recently (meaning January, maybe?) started seriously watching it per season and I am in love. It is so funny. Ah, I love it alot. It’s definately creeping up to becoming my only favorite.
Gilmore Girls: Most people think this show is stupid and “how can you listen to them ‘brain talk’ like that?” but the show has so much meaning. This show is the only that I think is keeping my mom’s and I’s relationship from going downhill. It’s the way my mom and I bond. Plus, it is hilarious, especially when you know all of the gagillion pop culture references they say. They also taught me how to talk fast ;)
Bones: Everyone has a favorite crime show. Don’t deny it. This is mine, next to CSI but that’s more of an addiction than a favorite. I love the relationships on the show. Plus the fact that David Boreanz is a hot peice of ass really helps…. (DO NOT BRING UP HIS PERSONAL MISTAKES I DON’T CARE. I know him as Booth and Angel. That is all. He has no other life to me.)
:)
Let’s see….
I’d have to say it’s a 3-way tie between The Sound of Music, Mary Poppins, and The Breakfast Club.
Sound of Music: I love this movie because I don’t know. Just… I don’t know! I’m at a loss of words about how this movie makes me feel. Oh! But Julie Andrews is like my hero so that definately has something to do with it. And I don’t care if people say it sucks or it’s cheesy or whatever. I love it. A lot.
Mary Poppins: Besides the obvious that Julie Andrews is in it, this move makes me SO HAPPY. Plus Dick Van Dyke is in it too! Especially Jolly Holiday and the penguins. And View la Hoo!! (the fox part before the horse race) It was one of the first movies (next to Birdie) to use that cartoon mixed with real life kind of stuff and it’s just amazing. And the dancing! AH! It’s AMAZING! I ‘m slightly obsessed with Mary Poppins. Like, I have both the Broadway and movie soundtracks, both the DVD and VHS, and a signed program from when they did it on Broadway. I LOVE THIS MOVIE! Oh, and the show is amazing on it’s own too. It’s not like the movie but it can completely stand on its own. AH! It was beautiful :)
*People may be thinking right now that yes, theatre kid likes musicals, but actually, I have loved both of these movies since I was like 7, before I even liked performing: Mary Poppins, even younger.
The Breakfast Club: GREAT MOVIE. and a good message. ‘Nuff said. Go watch it.
Day 01 - Your Favorite Song
Let’s Dance to Joy Division by The Wombats.
I think anyone who knows me knows this little fact about me. I’m not exactly sure why I love it so much. It might be because in part of the song it basically says the world is going to hell but we need to just enjoy it and be happy.
Or maybe because I always wanna jump and dance like I’m having a seizure.
I don’t know.
:)
I was just thinking about this today! This was my favorte because I got to get all emotional starting here! This was the bowl part! This was right after our epic fail! I miss this scene :(
This is the monologue I’m performing at Nationals.
Libia and Julie. You guys are the reason I’m doing this particular monologue. I love yall.
Jessie, how can I live here without you? I need you… You’re supposed to tell me how nice I look in my pink dress. You’re supposed to go around and…
Vanessa Hudgens is playing Mimi in the Neil Patrick Harris LA production of Rent. WTF.
