Happy New Year!

So I've all but abandoned this blog... so sorry by the way. I changed email addresses, yet they won't let me move my blog there. Pretty sucky, right?
Since my last entry, I've managed to acquire a pair of elf ears and I've become addicted to Skyrim. And this was only Christmas.
I've started a new blog on Tumblr, Auntie Rants, where I will be ranting every other Saturday. It'll be a fun time with my crazy opinions.
I'm also planning on getting my YouTube account filled with videos. Most will be me reading my rants in a semi rehearsed fashion, other times, they'll be weird, fun, videos containing who knows what. So that'll be fun... I hope.
I'm writing and updating several different stories on wattpad, my account is here. I've posted a 7 page satire, an original story entitled The Black Bandit, and for my fans, I have a private fan fiction running. It will be public once I finish it... if I ever do. Knowing me, I probably won't with out of harassment.
So I'm sick on New Year's, about to try and record a video for YouTube... yeah... that's my life so far. I'm planning on calling my new YouTube family my "clan". Everybody seems to call their internet viewers something too, so I thought to have a clan would be a cool idea.
If no one watches my videos, I'll probably go eat my feelings...
You know what, no I won't! I have no regrets about anything! 2012 was great, but 2013 is going to be the coolest thing you've ever seen. It's not just going to be cool, but it'll be an adventure!
So my new year's resolution? TO HAVE NO REGRETS AND LIVE IT UP!

I'm also going to start spamming you with gifs every post. I'm going to try my best!

This is probably the most shit zodiac picture I've done to this day... oh well. Happy year of the snake! Again, no regrets.

My life for the past few weeks...

Sorry I haven't been updating as much as I should have! I was busy with the play and now NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month for those who don't know) and well, HARRY LLOYD'S BIRTHDAY! It's today! He's turning 29 today, so HAPPY BIRTHDAY SCRUFFLES! Yep, that's his nick name that I and my friends use.
So nothing really major has happened that you would care about. I just want to address something that happened no less than 12 hours ago.
I hate trolls. I hate real life trolls (otherwise known as assholes) and I have one. I want him to stay away from me and no matter how bitchy I am, he doesn't get the message. He purposely pushes my buttons mostly offline, but it has bled into Facebook. So I finally unfriended him. I'm going to ignore him or tell him to piss off. Quite frankly, I already have someone who angers me by existing already, so I don't need him. So on assholes or trolls or what ever, just forget them. And if you ever have to apologize for who you are because of them or anyone for that matter, don't. Use sarcasm or something to defuse it all and walk away triumphant.
In other news, I'm going the whole day without a spoon. Apparently Liam (yes from one direction.) doesn't use spoons because of a fear of them. So in a way, you can say I'm living in the life of Liam Payne. I've made it through breakfast, but my dad says he's making soup to see how I handle it with no spoon. It's been kinda difficult so props to him.
I don't think there's much else to say. I'm going on a major drawing spree with CBaHC, so check for new "castings".

Here's a new character in the book named Ros Barquelle. Yes, she is related to Alyanna. Good times.

2 weeks of school gone.

I had plans two weekends ago. You know what happened? I got sick. Not just a cold, oh no. Come on, that would be too easy. You want to know what I got? The chicken pox. I'm 16 and I got the chicken pox and now I have several craters on my forehead from it. In fact, I have several craters all over from it. Not only that, but I have a full seven days of school work to make up. Oh, and I have a debate on Tuesday I have to be prepared for on Monday. It's ridiculous. I've been going mad because all I've had for company is my family and my phone. It's not the same as seeing people.
While I was sick I watched Quarantine, Silent Hill, and pretty much season 1 of Pretty Little Liars. I also watched The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy for the 28th time and got a bit further in The Mighty Boosh.
Quick reviews of the new stuff:
Quarantine: It left me saying "Fair enough" at the end. I literally said that at the end of the movie. The way they decided to tell the story was interesting and a bit limiting. It was pretty well done.
Silent Hill: I love this movie. I actually had to look away once or twice. It's, in a phrase, a mind game wrapped in hellish visions and blood. I love love LOVE it! If you can watch it, do! And the fact that they made a second film with Kit Harrington that's being released later this month is perfect. That is on my movie list.
Pretty Little Liars: It can get a bit boring, but the story sucks you in. If A was a serial killer hell bent on revenge, killing all those close to the main girls, that would be the best show ever. Unfortunately, A is only into mind games. Such a pity. The only complaint is that Hanna says in one of the episodes, "Meredith isn't a cute girl name." I seriously paused it and yelled at the screen, "Bitch please!" If I needed another reason not to like her. Now if Aria had said that, I would have felt betrayed. Aria is cool.
So that's what I've been up to. I've also learned some of the harmonies to One Direction songs as well as a bit of "I Want" on the piano. Yes, I am fully aware that I need social interaction ASAP. I'm working on it.

I actually drew this today on a post it note with a pen. I'm terrible with pens if you couldn't tell. This one doesn't suck as much as the others.

I'm going mainstream! HELP!

Normally, I take pride in my hipster sort of taste. I love when I can introduce my friends to new shows and music. I'm into vintage clothing and movies that are more artsy and under the radar.
About a week ago, I felt myself going mainstream in the music department... and dear lord I don't want to stop. You know how I came out as a Jedward fan? Well, no one knows about Jedward in my area, so I kept my whole hipster thing. But now I have really crossed the line into mainstream...
My next confession:
One Direction.
I know you must be disappointed in me and I am too! And I feel like I'm beginning to fancy (one or two) them... it's probably just because they're English (Well, Niall is Irish.) See? I shouldn't know that.
Anyway, I have found that 1D facts are hilarious. Regardless if you love them or hate them, you should just look them up. You get the occasional boring one, but some of the quotes are priceless. I highly encourage anyone with no life and way too much time on their hands to check it out.
Sorry for the lack of updates by the way. There hasn't been much to report on because my life right now is really boring and filled with school work. Speaking of which, I should get back to finishing my French project.
Doodle of the Day:
Here's the picture of Harry I painted in honor of him sending me an autographed picture. At least I'll still have him... He will always be the first Harry I think of regardless of Harry Styles.

My life is too awesome right now.

Yes. Be jealous. Be very jealous.
I'm going to have to keep this quick because I'm currently procrastinating on my APEuro homework, but that's okay. This was only one of the birthday presents from my aunt. She's the best, obviously. I was literally sobbing when I opened this up. It totally picked me up after my mom and I had a massive fight. I should really get back to answering study guide questions...
I got this with a copy of the Iron Lady, The Mighty Boosh DVD set, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (finally!), and an order for a copy of the Avengers. 
Again, be very jealous.

CAUTION!!! SPOILERS FOR CBaHC!!!  oh what the hell...
Yeah, it's the death of Lady Barquelle. Aaron looks way too much Hiccup, but oh well. It was completely unintentional.

On the Politics of Theater

First off, I auditioned, got a call back, and got cast as an extra. At first I was happy, but that only lasted for a second. I looked at the names of the other extras and saw that two of them could not act their way out of a cardboard box. I looked at the smaller roles for females and realized that I could easily out act two of them. I sat there contemplating what all of this meant. Was I not that strong of an actress as I thought? Were they just so good I couldn't see it? No. I know I'm a strong actress. The whole thing deals with politics.
#1 one of the girls, who is a year younger and is not a strong actress at all, got into one of the smaller parts. Why? Her brother is a gem in the theater community and her parents are the presidents of the parent booster's club.
#2 a girl in my grade, who was cast once in middle school her 8th grade year, was cast as another small role. Her parents are in the booster as well.
#3 The other extras that aren't that talented? Yeah, well, guess who have parents in the booster? Them. Me? No. My parents didn't have the time even though I begged them last year.
And I've had it about to my ears with politics. Think about it logically, if a person is a good actor, they should be cast. If a person isn't as strong of an actor, they should be in the back ground or not cast at all. But oh no. Only if you have connection do you get a relatively decent role or one that is way above your deserving.
I'm sorry for all of this. I've already had my scoop of self pity mint chip ice cream, but I still kinda feel like shit considering all of it. I had allowed myself to dream that I could make it to one of the bigger parts, and that's what crushed me. I'm sure my therapist will hear about this on Monday. I'm going to talk to my theater teacher as well and see what I can improve on. A lot of people try to comfort me in times like this, tell me to just keep auditioning. I get so angry when people do that though. I mean, who do they think I am? I'm not one to just quit! So I cry a bit, eat my feelings for a while, but I always get back up with a smile the next day and attack it like it's new. I've had a fair share of disappointments. I most certainly have. I just hate how people think I'll quit because of one. I just remember what my old theater teacher told me when I asked him where I could improve. "They're going to notice you. I know that because I noticed you." Every time I remember that, I always start to tear up. If not, I start to bawl harder. That's what I'm doing now. Bawling harder. But what ever. By tomorrow I'll be smiling and working again. Right now, I'm going to write more to Captain Bones and just immerse myself in the story. Maybe I'll even imagine that Aaron is real.

The Outsiders and Procrastination!

So, my school is putting on the Outsiders and auditions are this week. I'm signed up for Wednesday, but I'm still kinda nervous. #1, there is a new theater teacher. She's really nice and I love her, but it's still change. #2, she is having us perform monologues for our auditions. I've only been used to cold readings. I'm glad that we're doing monologues because there's a whole lot more preparation that can be done. But again, it's still a change. I just hope I do well especially because dramatic work is my forte.
And I'm still procrastinating on all the home work I should be doing. Yay! Well, I really should do that. Nothing else has been happening lately. With hope I can get all of my homework done and hop over to Michael's for some gears and chains for some jewelry. One thing's for sure, jewelry making always keeps me entertained. I'd even say I like it more that sewing.
