Altar Boyz

I went to a play toniiight! It's called "Altar Boys," and it was truly amazing. It's about these fives guys in a catholic singing group on the last day of their "Raise the Praise" tour. It's your typical boy band stuff. You have Matthew the leader, Luke the tough guy (..and recovering alcoholic and kinda stupid), Mark the sensitive one, (and flaming gay), Juan the suave Latino sweet talker, and Abraham who is kind of your average guy (and Jewish, ROFL).

The whole play they're making fun of religion, and boy bands. I absolutely, positively, loved it. Between the dancing and the lyrics in the songs...I was laughing the entire time. The entire show they're counting the souls they've cleansed on a screen they had hanging at the top of the stage. The show was witty to an extreme and just a lot of fun. If you have a good sense of humor about these things and won't get all offended I would recommend it to anyone.

I'm trying to convince my mom to take me again. One of my favorite lines out of the whole thing was:

Mark: Are Jewish people allowed in the church!?

Abraham: Well there's one hanging off of your cross over there.

Ahhhh! I always love all the plays we go to, and this has to be in my top 5. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time.

Oh, and at one point Juan unbuttons his shirt and goes up and there's a fan blowing so his shirt is billowing out. He plays a sexy Latino extremely well. He kept flirting with the girls in the audience which was even funnier because at the beginning of the show he announces that he was raised by nuns.

The audience was into it! The whole time they're screaming, and clapping, and just whooping it up. It was so enjoyable. The whole experience was just great.

I think it was a great opening night.

Till next time, lovies!

Biiiitch, please!

HELLO PEOPLE.

Not much to update on. Been busy as always. Mom and I started watching "Pushing Daisies" tonight. We watched the first episode and I thought it was pretty funny. I'm curious to see how the series will go on.

Hmm, well, on Sunday I finished reading "Princess Ben," by Catherine Murdock. Then Monday night I went to her meet the author. She was really cool. I never imagined she would be so funny. It was a lot of fun. "Princess Ben," was actually a really good book. It got more interesting in the second half, I think. I really enjoy her characters since their thoughts are very believable. With Ben her snarkyness was always very amusing. I wish we would of gotten to read more about her magic. I definitely thought it was going to be a bigger part of the story, but it was an enjoyable read and I would probably read the sequel if she comes out with one.

My dream would be able to meet Michele Jaffe, or Janet Evanovich. I'd have them sign my Kindle. *__*

Saturday I helped my dad mulch. It's about as fun as it sounds. Which is not at all, but I made 20 bucks which was pretty awesome. Then Tuesday I mowed my grandma's lawn and my brother was teaching me a few tricks to make it easier since I don't really have the strength to mow the hills there. I'm not ready for the weather to be so warm. I miss Fall. I feel like Fall, especially, flew by.

My arms hurt.

Been reading "Lean Mean Thirteen," and I want more Ranger right NOW. ...Even though he's been around recently, I just want more. I'm happy that Stephanie's sister Valerie has been gone the past couple books. I really didn't care for her. Oh, and Lula and Stephanie's conversations are win. Period. Simple as that.

I'm not sure if I've posted since we watched "Benny and Joon," but if I didn't I just want to say how much I LOVED that movie. Johnny Depp has to be one of the most talented actors I've ever seen. I'm going to have to own that movie. It was so...different, and amazing.

I think I might go for an adventure for info on the games I've been waiting for. I'm really wired for Gyakuten Kenji, and Another Code: R. I want them NOOOOW.

Tomorrow is my friends birthday. =0 I haven't decided what I'm getting her yet. My birthdays in less than a month too. Most of my friend's birthdays fall on top of each other. It's kinda crazy.

I couldn't sleep last night, and I'm dreading trying tonight. There's nothing like falling half asleep and then jerking awake a bunch of times.

Meh.

BIIIIIIIIIIIIITCH PLEASE! (Click it, you must: http://www.hulu.com/watch/67442/saturday-night-live-update-celebrity-blogger#s-p1-st-i2 )

TTFN!

Boneless (SADFACE)

I just made a new discovery. =0 I can set this up so I can update from my phone, and from my e-mail. That's kinda neat. Not that I'll bother. xD

Soooo, what have I been up to the past week? Well, I've been working on web design, (FINALLY!) and reading. Lots of reading.

Today I watched the first two episodes of xxxHolic. I watched the first episode a long time ago, but decided I wanted to give the series another shot and watched the first two again today. I also watched the first episode of Tales of the Abyss (the anime) yesterday. I'll probably watch them both on and off. I really love Luke's voice in the anime. Actually, I like all of the voices I've heard so far. I thought it would bother me since I'm so used to the American voice actors in the game, like with the Tales of Symphonia OVA where I didn't like Kratos' voice at all.

I'm talking on the mic., again, while I type this. So if there are some sentences that don't make sense, I apologize.

We're going to the play in 6 days, AHH!!!

My mom and I finished watched the 3 seasons of Bones, and the first 4 episodes of season 4. I'm so sad about Zack. In the 4 episodes he hasn't been around I miss him terribly. Even though I'm fangirling over the relationship between Booth and Brennan. I love how much they've grown over the seasons. Character development is the best, it really is.

We watched two movies the past two nights. Last night we watched "Lost in Austen," which was a really great movie. I'm not sure if people who haven't read/watched Pride and Prejudice (the BBC version, not the new one) would enjoy it nearly as much. There were so many Colin Firth jokes in it that would go over your head if you haven't seen the BBC version.

Tonight we watched another British movie called "Kinky Boots," which was enjoyable to say the least. XD If anything it will make you laugh. I love singing transvestites. Really.

SPEAKING OF SINGING TRANSVESTITES. My mom and I started "Lean Mean Thirteen" the thirteenth book of the Stephanie Plum series. LOVELOVELOVE Too bad Ranger's not living in her apartment anymore. That was awesome.

I want to play a pokemon game, like, really bad.

Charlie the Unicorn 3 is freaking awesome.

Peace out.

Professor, I've solved it!

10 days later....this updating stuff...I swear I'll get back to doing it more often.

It doesn't help that I haven't been doing much that merits an update on here. Or at least, nothing I can spazz out in mass speculation mode. Right now I'm on the mic. with one of my friends so I'm very distracted so I'm not sure if this will come out making sense. XD I'll do my best though!

So we have two more chapters of "Twelve Sharp" left. We've been trying not to read them as fast since we're almost DONE with the books now. Which makes me sad. WHAT WILL I DO WITHOUT RANGER, AHHH. I love that Ranger's kid is smart ass, by the way. It's just too perfect.

I've finally started reading "Lord of Misrule" which is the 5th book in the Morganville Vampire series. I downloaded it in January onto my Kindle, but I never got around to reading it. I'm about halfway through it. It's good, I'm not enjoying it as much as the other books, but it's definitely interesting. I'm not a huge fan of war since I hate not knowing if the characters are alright. I don't handle suspense very well. XD It's different when you're playing Fire Emblem and the characters are YOURS to command, and you are watching what's happening. When reading a book in first person you're following one character and you don't know where the rest of them are. Along with the fact you never know when someone will pop out and try to kill the character you're reading about. SHANE BETTER LIVE! IT'S DRIVING ME INSANE NOT KNOWING WHERE HE IS.

I tried replaying the Richter fight in "Dawn of the New World," and lost. Shut the Wii off and sulked about it for awhile. I'd have it done by now if I didn't have to sit through that cut scene EVERY TIME I need to start over. In the other Tales games you couldn't skip over them but you could make the speech go faster so that you get through it faster. They took that option away and it annoys me. Especially since you can't even PAUSE the cut scene.

I've been playing "Professor Layton and the Curious Village" more these past couple of days. I have EPIC ADD when it comes to series, and gaming. I eventually finish the games but I play them in phases. It's just how I work. I really do love how much this game makes you THINK. It really gets my mind working which is a great feeling.

I'm debating quitting yoga. I've skipped the past 4 weeks. I just can't stand getting up early in the morning to get relaxed. Especially since I can stay relaxed in sleep.

I'm not sure how I plan to spend my weekend. I might spend tomorrow gaming most of the day. Especially since I got my grandmother's lawn mowed today. WOOT! I really didn't want to, but now I'm glad I did. It means that I won't have to go anywhere tomorrow. YAAAY!

We're about halfway through Season 3 of Bones, which means we'll have to wait for Season 4 on DVD and that makes me sad. Boohoo D=

I want Another Code R, and Gyakuten Kenji RIGHT NOW.

If I ever get into cosplaying I'm doing L (Death Note) and Maggey Byrd (Phoenix Wright). I actually really look like Maggey, and I think it would be loads of fun.

Love and Peace!

Reading, watching, gaming

Lack of updates, FAIL.



I've been really busy with stuff lately. I haven't had much time to sit down and think out a post. I actually don't really know what to talk about this time around. I've been watching a lot of Bones, (2 or 3 episodes every night) I think it's become my favorite current TV series. I'm around episode 14 of Gungrave. Still haven't finished Itazura Na Kiss. I'm not sure if I have the patience.



I haven't been gaming as much as I'd like to be. I've been playing Fire Emblem on and off, as I mentioned before. Radiant Dawn is one of the longest Fire Emblem games I've played. Not that I mind. I love long games. It means I didn't waste my money for only a couple hours of gameplay.



Not much info on Another Code: R in Nintendo Power yet. I really hope they decide to translate. I want to play it SO BAD.



Finished reading "Off Season" the sequel to "Dairy Queen". For teen angst books they're not so bad. It's not really what I'd normally read. I have problems relating to books like that, I guess, since I'm not an overly angsty teenager. I don't really worry about that kind of stuff. I'd much rather read humor, and lighthearted books. I will say that I think "Off Season" was better than "Dairy Queen"," in my opinion. That might just be because I'm not a sports fan and really don't care for the sports mumbo jumbo and there was less of that in "Off Season,". I have laughed out loud at some of the things the main character, D.J, thinks during the story. She's a really fun heroine since the author made her a nice mix of sarcastic humor, and the fact that she might not be the smartest person in the world. Which makes her more real, since D.J. grows up on a farm and isn't really the best at school. To sum it up, they're certainly aren't my favorite books, but they have held my interest enough that I'll probably read the next one coming out in October.



I've also been busy reading "Twelve Sharp". Which is love, by the way. RANGERRRRR!



Been drawing a bit more than what I have been which is GOOD. I really hadn't been making enough time to draw, which isn't good if you want to improve on something so I'll continue working on that.



Well, that's all I can think of.



Went to get tickets for Altar Boys today. We're going to that play at the end of this month~.



I kind of miss Vampire Knight. Boohoo


Till next time.
