Lies and falsehoods, Padfoot!

Hey so at some point over Christmas vacation someone asked me to bring my Nebraska pictures home... Who was that? Emalee? I can't remember, and I'm coming home this weekend and I can bring them and lend them to whoever it was that wanted them, only I can't remember who that was.

So, help?

LAST AND FINAL UPDATE OF THE DAY! (I swear)

Heather L. and I are going to meet at the movies at 12:30 for the 1:00 showing of The Corpse Bride. I believe this will work for Vanessa and Jess as well.

Anyone else is more than welcome to come, and Vanessica (Hahahaha remember that? Ahhh Nebraska...) shoujld let me know if that's good for them and if they need rides.

Love you all!

P.S. I never knew so many people watched Inuyasha! Did anyone see the episode two weeks ago where they made it look like Miroku and Songo died (they didn't) and it was so intense that it made me cry?

P.P.S. Lost continues to tease me every Wednesday by telling me they'll reveal shit that they have no intention of revealing. Ever.

Light-up Jedi Lightsaber Spoons remind me of Vanessa.
















I love Vanessa!

Current Mood: nostalgic

There is no way in Hell that I could possibly recount everything that happened in Nebraska here.

But I'll do my best.

And I'll try to keep it interesting.

This is FUCKING LONG. I'm sorry.

Train ride out was fairly uneventful. I had a small emotional breakdown because sometimes I just feel so hopelessly lonely, but Renee and Hannah and Dustin (of all people) helped me through it. (Well, Dustin had no choice, as I sat on Renee in order to cry on her and he was next to her so I sat on him too, but he did distract me with Uno cards) So thank you Renee and Hannah and Dustin.

Hannah: We'll make the world better. We'll say "Hey all you dumb people, you should just stop being dumb, because you don't have the right to be dumb." (Who doesn't love Hannah?)

Met a cool girl named Onica (Like Monica only without the M) and her brother Jake from Wisconson. Played Egyptian Rat Screw with them for hours on end.

Then we arrived. I shall list for you all the main stages we saw and all the play marathons I saw. (If you want to skip this you can, but you'll be confused later on) I was told to go to at least two workshops. To which I responded "I graduated and you cannot tell me what to do anymore. Therefore I am going to plays, only plays, and nothing but plays, and you can't stop me. So there." And I did.

Main Stages

Jacques Brel is Alive and Well and Living in Paris (Not really a play as much as it was random songs...But it was entertaining.)
Jennifer Grey had Disappeared (Funny play about plastic surgery. Also known as "The boob job play".)
Ragtime (National Cast...They were perfect. Was about early 1900's and the changes therein.)
Lascaux...Dawn of Art (Was about cavemen...who did not talk, so was completely im mime. Yeah I dozed off. So did everyone else.)
The Caucasion Chalk Circle (I dunno why the circle was caucasion, but I liked the play.)
Pageant (Funniest play ever. Parts written for girls...all played by boys.)
Puck's Potion (Modern day version of A Midsummer Night's Dream, with the genders reversed. Puck and Oberon flew. Mind blowlingly cool. Second favorite play.)
Honk! (Story of the Ugly Duckling. Not as good as I had hoped. Not very enganging. But I liked the cat. And the toad.)
Sweeney Todd, the Demon Barber of Fleet Street (Best play I have ever seen. Intensity, singing, acting, set, costumes, plot, everything about it was phenominal. Was about a barber who kills people and his landlady who bakes them into meat pies. Dark humor and deep morals. I loved every second of it. Am oversimplifying it here.)
Jerry Finnegan's Sister (Was about a boy who loved his best friend's sister from the moment he met her. Was hysterical, political, and unbelieveably sweet.)
Seussical (Liked this one, but not as much as some others. Cat in the Hat was superb, as was Gertrude McFuzz.)

Play Marathon Plays (That I saw)
Hard Candy (About people trying to get hired for a job. Matt was in it. More about him later.)
Chaucer's Traveling Circus (Oh wait, I didn't see that I was IN that. Nevermind.)
Gardens (About a girl returning home. Lots of monologues and weird ending. Ted's school did it. More about him later too.)
Drugs Are Bad (Funny! About reverse pshchology.)
Time Flies (About mayflies who only live 24 hours and only have time to meet and mate. Funny AND had sexual content and swearing. I liked it.)
Strawberry Jam (About sisters who freeze their dead father. Also very weird. I liked it best of all the plays I saw that day.)
A Game (About people in an experiment. Not as good as it was when I saw it in rutland.)
The Prettiest Girl in Lafayette County (Loved this one. About a guy trying to win a girl. Shook incredibly hot guy's hand and told him he was wonderful in it.)
Exodus from McDonaldland (Hilarious. Hard to explain the plot, but it was funny and involved a man obsessed with his job at McDonalds.)
Property Rites (About figures that come to life. MSJ did a better job with it.)
Impromptu (About actors who have to improvise a scene...It's not what you think.)
Pin-up Girls (Troop from New Zealand's commentary on the rediculousness of womens' fashion. They were really nervous and had cute New Zealand accents.)
Scooter Thomas Makes It to the Top of the World (Awesome awesome play. Amazing asshole of a actor named Brett. More about him to come.)

Ok. Some quotes, because I don't think you all want a run down of every second of every day.

Chad: I saw Miss Texas shaving his legs in the bathroom last night. (Miss Texas was one of the guys in Pageant)

Me: Hannah, you're going to grow up and have hippie granola kids named flower and henbush.

Gerry's band is to be named The Soggy Wafeels. One F, two E's.

Anna is my land. She is mine. She is beautiful, and she is mine. (Quote from A Game "This is my land. It is mine. It is beautiful, and it is mine." Anna's last name is Land. You get it.)

The guy from Scooter Thomas, Brett (With two T's) harassed Vanessa about her skirt. I shall recount/paraphrase this incident.

Brett: (Shouting across dining hall, like the asshole he is) Hey! You in the black skirt! I saw your butt! Hey! (To me and Anna) Tell your friend I saw her butt when she stood up, and she shouldn't wear that skirt again.
Me: Excuse me, but you have no right to tell my friend how to dress. (And there was more talking to him, both from Anna and I, that got no results.)
Vanessa: *Cries*
Aaron: *Contemplates appropriate course of action for a few minuets.* (He then rose, walked deliberately over to Brett, and stabbed him in the back with his ice cream cone. We all just about died laughing.) YOU MESS WITH A MEMBER OF ENCORE, YOU MESS WITH US ALL. AND WE WILL STAB YOU IN THE BACK. WITH ICE CREAM!

We lost Paul. He has the worst sense of direction ever, and he didn't show up for dinner one night, and Mrs. Archer about had a heart attack. It was really funny.
Jess: Where in the world can Paul be hiding?

Me: Sweeney Todd; making cannibalism fun!

ASSFACE TWATWAFFLE (Is quite a fun insult. What is a twatwaffle? No one knows.)

Anna: My jerk senses are tingling!

Paul: Can I wear your Tara?
Me: You mean my Tiara?

Guys in back: This is the song that never ends! Etc...
Random Guy: This isn't my angry face, it's my disappointed face.

The boys discovered a new fun game called nutball, which is all the name implies. They throw balls at each other's nuts. And there are complicated rules and penalties.
Gerry: *Pegs ball at Aaron's head*
Aaron: Hey!
Gerry: What can I say, you're a dickhead.

Anna: No. There is no vaginaball.

What's an emo burrito?
A sad sandwich.

Me: So...What kind of tree are we under here?
Dustin: A green one.

Vanessa: *Looks at Renee, who is sound asleep, sitting straight up, on top of Dustin* She looks so...French!

Me: I'm just chillen like a gorilla!

Casey: Paul, in his sleep, knocked over a bag of chex mix, his cd player, his phone, a bag of chips and three magazines.
Spencer: All in one fell swoop?
Casry: No. He moves around a lot.

EMO LA! "I'm so lonley...Laaaaaa!"

I met a gay contortionist. His name was Matt. He reminded me a lot of Bart, as he had red hair and wore a bandana around his Leg. He was awesome.

I met a guy named Ted who followed me around like a lost puppy for three days until I ignored him long enough and he finally got the message. Honestly, how do I attract these people?

I met the guy who played Sweeney Todd, Braxton, and told him that he was amazing and that he reminded me of my ex-boyfriend. Which he did in his black leather coat.

Emalee and Sarah gave Seth a mohawk.

And then the train was delayed about 24 hours total...So we went to the zoo.
No. We took the FREE trolley to the FREE zoo, which was good because most of us had no money left. THANK YOU RENEE FOR FEEDING ME! It was a very nice zoo. I like zoos. I saw giraffes and polar bears and lions and tigers but not wolves because they weren't open yet. Bugger.

We also saw a guy steal something from a Walgreens, bought a book on how to be a villian, and threw Vanessa, Aaron, and Gerry (in that order) into the fountain.

I am no longer a manga virgin. Thank you Chris and Legal Drug. (In which there is a definate flash bastard.)

Me: *Smells cow manure* Ahhhhhh. Smells like home.

I've left out sooooooooooo much here, but I know no one will have read this anyways because it's uber long so eh. It was an amazing trip, and I'm just as glad to have gone as I am to be home.

Night!

I packed!

Squee.

I am soon going to be eating, breathing, and sleeping theater. Is there anything better?

Probably, but let's not go there.


I don't wanna get inside you mind or your pants
I don't wanna waste my time with love and romance
I want my next ex-girlfriend
Next ex-girlfriend!

(Don't ask)

Current Mood: accomplished

I don't really have anything to say, but I feel like updating.

I'm reading Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix for the second time, and most of you weren't on livejournal when I read it last summer for the first time, so you missed all my crazy thoughts about it.

Which is quite tragic.

This is still the best sentence: "It was quite galling to be told not to be rash by a man who had served twelve years in the wizard prison, Azkaban, escpaed, attempted to commit the murder he had been convicted for in the first place, then gone on the run with a stolen hippogriff..."

I highly recommend that you all read all the Harry Potter books. They are just really good. And they make for very interesting conversations. *Reminisces fondly about last summer*

Anyways, Summer Encore starts tomorrow, and thet'll provide plenty of fun things to write about I'm sure.

Also, in umm...like four days we leave for Nebraska, so I won't be on for 10 days. But then I'll be full of new stories. Yays!

Ok, I'm finished wasting your lives.
