There's a hell in my house
It starts off small
Sitting in a bottle
Thrown against the wall
There's a hell in my house
Growing larger today
From drunken slurs
and the Bitch Parade
Random in-progress emotional poem for you guys. As you can guess, yesterday wasn't a good day in my house. In the sense that my mom was, well, drunk.
Anyways, onto a different topic: FINALS. I'm finally done, thank GOD. Most of my finals were pretty easy, but my civics final sucked. Especially because most of the questions were just talking about what someone who voted looked and smelled like, and how they likes their omelets. Seriously, what the hell. Then I got to go to Wendy's and listen to 50's one-hit wonders. So it was all good.
Oh yeah! I forgot to tell you guys this, but I'm one year older then I was before! My birthday was last weekend, and I haven't blogged in a while, soooo yeah.
Wow, I'm horrible. I should at least write you another snippit of a poem to make things better. Here goes.
"My color is as big as that tree!"
The boy said, with big blue eyes
That hid under his yellow tinted locks
The girl thought he was silly
Smirking, as she knew the truth
That colors didn't have sizes.
"How big is the color of the tree then?"
The girl said, itching to win this
Battle of wits with the child.
"It's as big as a hug" said he
Poising a tender chicken nugget
In his pearly white baby teeth
"How big is a hug" asked she
Taking a large sip of pop
Out of the cup with a bendy-straw.
The boy thought, then said
"Big enough to make you feel
Like a fire pit is in your tummy"
Their mom croutched down
After hearing their little fight
And took them into her arms
The little girl smiled
Knowing then, just exactly
How big a hug can be.
....That made no sense. Sprung into my head though when watching two little kids playing in Wendy's.
Well, bye~

New Zodiac Signs, and 100 Theme Challenge
EDIT: Apparently the "new zodiac signs" don't effect anyone at all. Astronomers just suck.
Oh my gosh, new zodiac signs? What is this madness!
But seriously folks, this is for real. Because of movements of planets and stars in space, all the zodiac signs (like Aquarius and Gemini) are attached to different dates now, and there's even a third one. I'm not gonna go all in depth about it, but if you wanna read about it, Google it. I guess I'm Capricorn now, but I still wanna call myself Aquarius, just because that's who I feel I am.
100 Themed Challenge!
I have to say this is one of the best art challenges ever, at the same level as NaNoWriMo. The reason it's on the same level is because it's an art challenge, for literature, drawing, painting, poetry, whatever floats your boat. It has no time limit, and it's just 100 prompts that your brain will nag you to finish. That's it. No rules, no nothing, just do art. I love it.
Here are the prompts if you want to see them. I might post my finished thingies to my website.

004. Dark
005. Seeking Solace

Those With Little Get Great Things, Those With Great Things Get Little
The Romeo and Juliet Cast-list was posted today~ I'm the head of the Montague Chorus, but that's not what I want to talk about.
Okay, so if you would actually look at the title of my post, you'd notice that it seems a bit complex, but it's just saying this:
If you don't have much, when you get something small it's amazing, but when you're used to big things and you get something small you think of it as disappointing and stupid, instead of actually appreciating it.
Sadly, there are even upperclassmen of mine who still do this. As a poor girl livin' in a run down shack of a house, I know what it's like to go through bankruptcy and having to use my allowance and college funds when I was little to pay the bills. I'm just a freshman who hasn't gotten many good parts in my life, so when I get to say one line in a play I get all warm and giggly inside. But some people I know HAVE gotten great roles, and still want more more more instead of just trying to get a part in general. And then they get all "I should have gotten that role; I can't live on!" when they get a minor part.
Boo hoo. Just go and sit in your corner and cry your damn eyes out, and leave the rest of us alone.
...Wow that sounded bitchy, but damn, it's true. I mean, just be happy you got a part, and be good sport. Who knows, you might be allowed in the spotlight again later on. Don't just go and think you're all that and a bag of awesome.
Ugh now I'm just ranting. Congrats to everyone who got into the show though! Lets make this good!

Your Grace Is Wasted In Your Face, Your Boldness Stands Alone Among The Wreck
Okay, so apparently I died around December 11th, and have just been reborn recently. I'll just go with that instead of apologizing for not posting anything over winter break. I wouldn't be exagerating much though if I said that I sat on my arse all of winter break.
Because really all I did was eat, watch anime, sleep, and open presents. FML, no life.
But after watching every episode of Katekyo Hitman Reborn! and becoming my mom's pajama model, school started up and I finally had to revive myself from my sluggish state to take on the responsibility of a life again.
SO, up to the present, there's three cool things I want to talk about, in order of... well, there's no real order, but still, here;s the three things.
1) Cake.
Okay, so I'll try and make this short. One of the days my friend's mom was taking me and her to school, there was this song on the radio. And it was called Never There by Cake. Now, I don't know if you know this, but it's one of the coolest newer songs I've heard in a while. And I just love their sound. Now, you might know their more popular song Short Skirt/Long Jacket, which is pretty cool too (though not one of my favourites). I highly suggest though that you listen to Never There, Perhaps Perhaps Perhaps, and Short Skirt/Long Jacket, because after that you will love them. Unless you hate things that are awesome. Like explosions.
2) Romeo and Juliet.
Yup, back to the old CET, I suppose. This time we're doing Romeo and Juliet, that hilarious love story that's really more of a comedic tragedy. I auditioned for the Prince, and didn't get called back, though there wasn't a callback list for the Prince since he's a minor role. But I have high hopes that I'll get the part, or that I'll get Sampson. You know, the "I bite my thumb, sir, but I do not bite my thumb at you, sir" guy. I'll totally make him a sex god and be so amazing at it that Quinn'll be forced to make him show up more in the play /heavy sarcasm. Yeah, acting isn't one of my best talents, I know, but at least I have fun doing it. And some people really liked my Prince thing, so maybe I have shot. I dunno, I'm really just self-pity-rambling now, so I'll shut up.
3) My website.
Yuppers, I've got a website. Well, sorta. It's a google site, and it's pretty awesome so far. I'm probably gonna have a blog on there too, which will probably be more of "what happened today" instead of "what's on my mind". Here's a link to it, so you can just run along and check it out, mkay?
TL;DR: I'm obsessed with the band Cake, I tried out for Romeo and Juliet, and I made a Google Site.
AND PS IF YOU CARE TO KNOW, the song that the title of this post is from is Little Lion Man by Mumford and Sons. Check them out too, they're great.
