Yay for artistic liscense with religious themes!

I just saw "Constantine", and even though its wasn't quite as frightening as I expected it to be after the opening scene, I will still have nightmares for at least a week. But...it was a really good movie. I like when movie producers are brave enough to make movies that ask "what if...?" Cuz "Constantine" took a lot of liberty with Christianity and all the beliefs and customs that go with it, but wasn't really offensive at all. Well, the angel Gabriel might take a wee bit of offense, but I expect that Gabriel is above something so trivial like that...but I can't say too much more if you plan on seeing the movie. It was good. Crazy, but good, and thought provoking. I liked how one of the demons walked around in this absolutely gorgeous grey pinstripe suit and a polka-dotted tie- it totally follows up on the whole the-devil-may-look-fair-but-is-really-foul idea. Haha- but honestly, I was really close to standing up, and taking that polka-dotted tie right off of him for me to keep. Ok, so not honestly at all, but I thought about it.

Um, well, the confusion I've been feeling the past month or so has finally been resolved. I'm a little sad about it, but mostly relieved. I still have someone great that's there for me, but I don't have to question what's going on in his mind, or heart, anymore. Maybe. Let's hope. Um, I'll probably tell all you guys that read this the next time I see you, so I'm not going to say anymore on a blog thats open for the world to see.

Ok, so back to "Constantine". That movie made me want a major in theology more than I ever have before. But honestly, Alex, how are you going to live off of a major in both dance and theology? There's already a song about how a degree in English is completely useless. I can think of only one thing that you can do with degrees in dance and theology, and that doesn't pay any money. At all. Exciting. Ok, well, as soon as I figure out how to survive on my own for the rest of my life, I let you all know. *heart* you! muah!

Don't dream too far, don't loose sight of who you are...

Wow, I think thats one of the most depressing lines from a song ever. But oh, so pretty. Apologies for not having blogged in a long time. But,

WE GOT SECOND AT STATE!!!!!!! 2 OUT OF 128!!!!

yay!

I'm going to leave my font a color, cuz whenever I change it back to black in this little text box thing, it never shows up on my blog, cuz its, well, black. Um, I don't know, lots has happened, I spose, I bought three prom dresses ( to return two), and I would describe all of them, but most of you will see them sometime soon. But I will describe the one I think that may make the cut; that's a bright canary yellow-like-Belle-in-the-ballroom-scene-of-Beauty-and-the-Beast-one, that looks awful (the color) on me, and the front is kinda boring, but the back is amazingly cool, and sort of has thick straps the wrap around each other to criss cross, and go so far down my back that I worry about bending over in it. But its really cool, and if I get a little color in Florida it will look better.:) Oh, Florida! we leave soon, like next Friday. Ahhhhhh!!! I had my first experience tanning, and I felt very sinful and hypocritical while I was doing it, but I really really really really don't want to get ANOTHER blistering sunburn. I'm going to get skin cancer as it is, so I'll take every precaution, except for maybe wearing longsleeves and pants, or one of those hats that you wear in the desert. But yes, I just found out that the people in my "family" are mostly freshman, and includes probably some of the only people in the school that I can't stand. Oh, well, I'll just have to run away fast. Speedy. Like Gonzales. Speedy Gonzales. Ok, but I really really really really really need to go do my short story and stupid Rotary Club Student speech thing. Wish me luck. Love you all. Muah!

Hi, I'm Alex...and this is my clone Shaniqua.

Wow, I haven't blogged in a really long time. I know there is a lot of stuff to blog about, but I just don't recall any whenever I come to blog. I decided I need a clone that's been biologically accelerated through time, so she can do all the stuff I don't have time to do, and keep both of us happy. She can clean my room, and go to some of my classes for me, so I have time to teach dance, work, go to play practice, start my short story, and finish my painting. (Which looks like crap by the way- at least the curtains.)

Betso and Bridget came over last night, and I ate more in an hour than I have in a long time. We watched "Much Ado About Nothing" (yay!-one of my faves), and Betso and I had lots of excellent giggles at Bridget's expense, as usual. (Well, she's the one who admitted that she probably could fill a cereal box with milk, and eat it all in one night... ;-) ) But yes, I love them, they were much more entertaining than cleaning my room or msn. I need to go work now- bye- muah!

Follow the skinny black cord, follow the skinny black cord...

Hello! I had a blast at Minneapolis, as most of my favorite people we there (though we missed those that weren't). Four out of Six of the group numbers qualified for nationals, and so did "Ghost" and my solos. Sort of silly, as about half of the numbers qualified for nationals, but a lot of them, to put it bluntly, sucked. I like it when they give star ratings, or Platinums, Golds, and Silvers, then you really know how you did. Oh, well, first place trophies look good at graduation receptions, even if they mean crap. My memory is having trouble recalling everything that happened, as it was kind of a while ago- today is Saturday, and the competition was last Saturday, but whatever. Um, "Evita" was fabulous and very enviable, as our play is cursed to lose a cast member every four days. And I decided that I'm kidnapping Bridget, and am going to make her my sister, as I've never had one. She doesn't know this yet, but she won't mind...;-)

I have almost all of my lines memorized for the play, including the scene with Puck. That makes me happy. Nothing to worry about anymore except making it to practices. :S But yea, the boys basketball game is in about two hours, so I really really should shower. Love You! Muah!
