Hey, hey? Remember me? Rachel? The owner of this blog? I bet you thought I died, didn't you? Well I haven't. Glory be, isn't that fabulous.
So, right now, I'm sitting backstage of our opening of I Hate Hamlet. I was assigned props assistant, and whatever, I do stuff. They break lots of vases. Volpi is shirtless. If your into that kind of thing, his shirtless hugs are kind of nice. But he's still a tool. And he knows he's getting nothing from me. Except disdain. I hand that out freely.
I'm also props masta [holla] for Sweeney Todd and I do blood and I think I'm going to have to make lots of meat pies. And that's gross, and I can't really cook and stuff, but whatever. I think I'm going to hold a meat pie baking party and everyone can make pies while I watch Jane Eyre on repeat or something.
I'm in Pottermore too. It's sort of become an obsession, and my life [literally] revolves around making virtual potions. And yes, this is sad, but it's also fun and I'm earning house points for the house cup, and yes, we're leading (with the least members, mind you,) because we're the ambitious crew.
I thought I was in Gryffindor for like, ever, and I really wanted to be that, but no, I got Gryffindor's rival, Slytherin. I was like, "there is no way I'll be that house," and then I was sorted, and what do you know, Slytherin. And this is J.K. Rowling's quiz, so it's as legit as they come. So, at first, I had a mild identity crisis, like, "do I know myself?!" And then I realized, omg, I am a Slytherin, and ya'll, it was like I truly understood myself for the first time, and now I'm embracing the hippogriffs out of it, because this is my house. You know? It's so clear now. I've been changed. Or at least I truly know who I am. I'm selfish, but ambitious, determined, cunning, traditional, etc. It's like, WHOA, I found where I belong.
So yes, I've felt ties to my house, and yes, I'm as obsessed with it as one would be with a sports team or something. And yes, now I have to buy a new lanyard, because my old one is Gryffindor, and that just don't go ya'll.
I've been very anti-social lately, and you know, whateves. It's just like, I want to be alone so I can think and live in a world where there is no one but me. It's a phase, so don't patronize me or anything. I'm the happiest I've been in a while, and that's really something. I thank God for that every night.
In my arts class we have to do a performing arts piece. I'm not real picky, I just threw out three requirements as far as I'm concerned: togas, blood and food. That's all that maters to me really.
Oh, and I'm in pottery and I cannot throw pots to save my life and I am doing a dismal job. But I can use a kick wheel, so that's awesome. My teacher has dubbed me her 'Special Student.'
Yeah.
So, following on that anti social path, I also have no time. I still read a lot, but right now I can't read. Actually, that's a lie, because I'm on Pottermore all the time, making virtual potions. Is that sad? Yes. It's so sad. But I love it, and that's all that matters.
I wish Hogwarts was real. Then I'd have my fellow Slytherins and we would do stuff like jump on the leather couches in the common room, and I'd learn how to become invisible and stuff. That would be cool.
I know everyone who reads this is going to think, "Oh Rachel, her life is so sad, and she's so lonely," but seriously guys, I think I'm just basking in me time. I'm a natural hermit with an overactive imagination, and I'm really enjoying my life right now. I like just hanging out with me and the four cups I cannot throw on a wheel. My cylinders - they're so sad.
So, what's happening on the boy front? Well, I like at least a dozen. There are two guys in pottery who try and help me all the time, but they're both engaged, and it angers me. Just on principal. I've reached the point where I think I want to be an eternal maiden. I would start a club for eternal maidens and we would become archers and travel the world and climb trees and stuff. It'd be awesome.
I have 4 cats now. I know, you all think my life's pathways are really depressing, but I seriously love it. Although they can be annoying at times. Such as when they attack my feet while I'm sleeping.
So blogger. I say adieu for now.

Harry Potter World 1.2: Disney is not JUST for children
It is 12:02 and I am not in bed. Why? Because I went to Disney World today. And we just got home.
Right now, I'm a little grumpy. As I write and relive the moments today, I'm hoping my grumpy pants will come off and I will enjoy my recap. I must say, there is one reason behind my grumpiness:
Children
You know, we chose this time to go because we evaluated the following: kids will be in school while we are here. And they were. There were several, several Europeans, and 8 times out of 10, we were in line with several of them at a time. But they were fine. They were enjoyable. And they were entertaining, because they dressed extremely impractical. I wish I could have known what they thought of "it's a small world" because I think it plays into every stereotype possible.
BUT, whereas there were absolutely no children elementary age, there was a mass of children about 4 and under. I mean, I get it. It's Disney World. It's [supposedly] made for children. But I don't know why on earth you would bring children that young to Disney World. For the "memories?" I went when I was four. Do you know how much I remember? Nothing. Literally NOTHING. I cannot tell you a thing other than something about Micky waffles, crying about not going on the Tower of Terror and something about giant maracas. And we sent some postcards.
So, as they squalled and were utterly miserable their parents trekked on with their beasts of a stroller. And of course, the majority have that mindset of that I owe them something because their precious beast is tired and wants to see the show. I watched the majority of The Magic, The Memories and You through a sea of children on their parents shoulders.
Basically, by the end of the night, after I watched a child throw up next to me in the trolley line, I looked a little like this:
[Actually, that child throwing up was sort of a highlight, but before that, I looked like this.]
Highlights:
1. Free food at my breakfast and stealing bananas and bagels and eating them for lunch. My college student ways are bleeding through.
2. Riding "it's a small world." I know it's ridiculous, but it's literally my favourite ride. I threw a penny in at the France section. Represent, mes amis.
3. Going on Splash Mountain for the first time, having a fit, the entire time and then finding out that it's like, the easiest thing ever.
4. Space Mountain. Enough said.
5. Tomorrowland in general. It was my absolute favourite. I mean, I liked Fantasyland for what it was, for representing classic Disney movies. But Tomorrowland was like living in the world of Meet the Robinsons. I adored it. LOVE. What I liked about it was that it was like, what the future was supposed to be, and it's so close, but not yet.
6. CAROUSEL OF PROGRESS
I want to talk more about everything, but right now, I am so tired, and 7 o'clock in looming ever closer. Perhaps I'll blog tomorrow.

Harry Potter World 1.1: Palm Trees
Kelly's currently writing in her "travel journal" about our lovely trip, so I thought I would do the same - except my dear blog audience is going to SEE ALL. I have to be quick and dirty because we have a date in the Magic Kingdom tomorrow, so this may not be as, proof read as usual. Did I mention we're wearing our matching Tinkerbell Pajamas? Well, now I am.
So today I woke up. And I thought, "this is the beginning of the best week of my life." I have prepared ridiculously. I cut my hair! I bought shorts! I have toiletries! I shaved my legs this morning. And then I put on a dress. It was red with dots. Then I drove. Then I bought gas - apparently cars need that. I arrived at Kelly's house. I pet Minerva. We got in the car. 7:30: we embarked.
We bought biscuits. They were too hard. We drove. For several hours. We stopped at Subway and bought gas. It has lots of security precautions. We drove some more.
When we arrived in Florida there was a palm tree at the entrance. It made smile. I was so happy. There are a lot of palm trees in Florida. I mean a lot of palm trees. It was sunny and beautiful, and so flat. I was amazed. How can it be so flat? The sky was such a funny colour. It wasn't Carolina blue. I never realized that was, special to Carolina or something. I mean, I know it's in the name, but you know, I just thought they dedicated it to Carolina. I didn't think it was like, limited to here...there...whatever, quit judging.
Important/Influential/Significant/Interesting things that happened:
1. We counted 'ProLife' signs. There were over 7 - but we started counting late. Although I am ProLife, they were a tad bit creepy. For example:
 |
| Creepy Baby Smiles are Creepy |
3. Our hotel room is BEAUTIFUL. It's at the Hyatt Place and it is huge and lovely, with a massive TV, a couch, a kitchenette, a king size bed, and a soap/shampoo/conditioner dispenser. It looks exactly like this:
 |
| Room fit for the Goddesses we are |
4. Our waiter looked like a cross between Daniel Bottoms and Josh Groban. It was frighting. I'm posting pictures so you can imagine what a cross between the two would look like and be equally frightened.
When all is said and done, Kelly plans to Tumblr our whole trip; complete with 5,000 of my - interesting - quotes. Speaking of which, what do coconuts grow on? I always thought it was palm trees, but with so many planted around here, this can't be. A coconut tree? Somehow, this doesn't sound right.
After an 8 hour trip, I'm very tired. Did I mention our hotel is directly across from Universal, aka, home of Harry Potter world? I saw a billboard. I had a nerd fit. As I sat in a pool chair, looking across at the albino black guy, the Universal parking garage and the sunset, I began to cry because I thought, J.K. Rowling, the one who birthed Harry Potter (Figuratively, because Lily Evans Potter birthed him.) has walked the same streets that I am going to walk. As I took a very long bath, I prayed, "God, thank you, because I don't know if I've ever been happier."

Horcrux of the Moment
Kelly has this thing on her Tumblr called ‘The High-Five’ where she lists the 5 things she’s really into at the moment. The more High-Fives she posted, the more I fell in love with this idea – it’s so organized! I love organization! I like charts! It's like math! I LOVE math!
Being the uncreative thieving wench in love with her creative idea, I decided to adapt something of it for myself. The name is in development, but it has something to do with Horcruxes. If you are asking "why, what is a horcrux?" I ask, a. are we friends? And b. are you adversed to good literature? But for those who don't read Harry Potter, a horcrux is an vessel that holds a bit of your soul. Fitting, no? Okay, so that might be too dramatic of term, but love, soul, their interchangeable - sort of. Whatever, I'm going with it.
Speaking of which, once the Voldemort has 7, I shall dedicate the same number to my Horcruxes of the moment
1. EOS Lip Balm
Call me a sucker for packaging concepts. It's completely true. Yes, I have 3 out of the 5 colours. Well, in my defense, my mother bought 2. BUT, I love it so much. This chap stick...this chap stick. It moisturizes my lips and it doesn't leave that icky residue that chap sticks often leave. I carry it everywhere. Only downfall? It doesn't fit into pockets.
2. Casting for The Hunger Games
A small addiction has risen in the form of continually checking the cast list for The Hunger Games. I would be lying if I didn't say that I checked on the internet at least 3 times a day - and continually checking my twitter on my phone, seeing if anything has been confirmed. SO MANY TRIBUTES have been cast. So many of my favourites. But so many more to go.
I don't think I've mentioned this (ha, WHATEVER) but it's being filmed in Asheville. This mega-hit is being made an HOUR AWAY. More awesome news: Thursday, Tommy, Drew, Val and I are heading out to the casting call for extras in, catch it, HENDERSONVILLE. To be an extra isn't glamorous - but for The Hunger Games I would willingly enter the arena and thus die a seventy-four times to be included. And with locality like that? How can I pass?
3. Exploring
Exploring has always been a hobby of mine; But, Saturday, I went on an adventure.
Tommy, his girlfriend Lindsey and the token Russian student, Vladimir, came up to see some falls. I joined them, as I only live 10 minutes away. As I've been trekking in the woods since I was 5, we took a lot of, *cough* unorthodox paths around the falls, often into thickets of poison oak. Tommy then [dramatically] recited the waterfall scene from The Last of the Mohicans.
After that tomfoolery, we wanted to go swimming. So we went near the bridge and played in the water. We then decided to go through uncharted waters, through the rapids. Barefoot. I straddled a tree - Val broke the tree. We climbed big rocks. Then we decided to trek upstream through the rapids of death. And I was the leader.
Best moment? We were all holding onto some limbs when Val suddenly said, "Rachel, vet go of dee limb." I had no idea what he was talking about until I saw the baby WASP NEST OF DEATH. We managed to trek around it through the woods. We also managed to run into strangers. Lindsey, who lives in the city, was very excited about her adventure and told them, "We came up the rapids! It was so much fun!"
They stared at her. It may have been because she was in her underwear.
A Tumblr dedicated to cats being in places where cats do not belong. Paired with the witty captions, I have never laughed so much. I'm trying to decide if I have a legit obsession with cats. If I do, I'm going to let it pass. We all need something to love.
5. Harry Potter
I'm looping two things into one category. First off TRAILER:
Drew said I never blinked when I watched it. It's true. I think it looks fabulous. Except for the falling off the bridge part; I'm a bit confused. Because the Dragon in the 4th movie more or less fell around the same point, and it died. And Harry and Voldemort don't die. At least not that way.
Second off:
HARRY POTTER WORLD.
As I write this, I have 9 days until I'm home. This will be my first trip. I keep trying to find words to describe what I feel. I'm coming up short. No moment in my life will compare to what is to happen on May 12th. Not the birth of my first child or the day I am to wed. No. I will cry. As I write this, I find tears just thinking of the moment when I see that scarlet steam engine. I just, I just, I don't know.
I'm so glad I get to share it with one of my best friends. I'm going to try Butterbeer for the first time. I'm may get to buy my wand. Not a replica of someone else's - mine.
I'm going to stop, because my laptop is getting wet.
6. Gladiator Sandals
A girl in my T.I.E. class broke my favourite flip flops. My mom bought me a pair of $5 sandals to tide me over. I wear them with everything. And although they began to tear on the SECOND DAY I wore them, I do not care because I love them.
7. The Mortal Instruments Series
I left the nerdiest for last. I wish I could say I didn't like fantasy novels, but it would be a lie. I've wanted to read City of Bones for a while, but just look at that cover. It has a sparkly man chest. Like, I can't even articulate how bad it looks, much less what it says about me as a person.
I won't say it's epic literature. It's not up there with Harry Potter or The Hunger Games. But, ya'll, it's good. Like guilty pleasure, but a good guilty pleasure, one you don't mind admitting too. I have feasted and devoured City of Bones and City of Ashes within days - that's just the first two books, and that's at least 1,000 pages. I continually check my library account, waiting for the patron who has City of Glass to TURN IT IN so I can CHECK IT OUT and feast on its glory.
It features a normal girl named Clary who has lived a normal life. She has her normal mother, her mother’s normal not-boyfriend, and her normal best friend (and captain of the nerds), Simon. Everything is normal UNTIL she goes clubbing and she sees people no one else can see. *cue ominous music* Then she finds out about these people called *cringe* Shadowhunters and they kill demons.
Anyway, one of the Shadowhunters is a boy named Jace, and he’s snarky and tortured. And yes, that would be his sparkly, glittering chest on the cover. As she begins to have feelings for him, she also begins to see Nerd Captain Simon in another way, which after 10 years of friendship, it’s about time.
Just so you know Simon is totally my favourite. He a. is Jewish, b. an archer, c. wears glasses, d. is in a “band”, e. is a vegetarian, f. has unrequited love, and g. is allergic to ragweed. He is the pinnacle of nerd/awesome and I think I want him as my boyfriend. And just when he couldn't get any more awesome, he goes through something very serious, and it just makes him 8x more awesome.
I literally want him. It's not a joke. He has made me forget about all the crushes I have ever had, because they all revolve around this fictional character Simon and how much I want need him.
For now, these are my Horcruxs. Will they change? Most definitely. But, the bright side is, if I keep changing them, Harry will never find them.

The Parable of the Banana Sandwich
You know sometimes, you just want a banana sandwich; all you want, all you really ask out of life is for a banana sandwich. You spend all three hours of class dreaming about when you shall get that PB and Bananas sandwich; your tummy growls in desire. You take a risk; you go to the rarely eatery on campus just so you can get the ever so desired banana sandwich.
Life is about risks; unfortunately, you never know where they are going to lead.
You walk into said sandwich shop and say "I would like a peanut butter and banana sandwich, please."
Sadly, they have no bananas.
This throws a wrench in your plan.
What are you to do?
You could settle with a PB&J. Or go and buy your own bananas and make your own sandwich.
OR, you can wait.
See the thing is; perhaps you weren't meant to have a banana sandwich right now. Perhaps that banana sandwich wouldn't be appreciated right now. Maybe if you had it right now it would end in a weird rash or in the toilet, thus soiling your chances of ever wanting a banana sandwich again.
Friday; they have no bananas. Today they did. I'm glad I waited, because this is the best banana [peanut butter/cinnamon,/honey] sandwich I have ever had. Although it is also the messiest sandwich I've ever had and typing while eating isn't the brightest thing I've ever done, NO MATTER, because it is totally worth it.
Because I believe God can work in something as uninteresting as banana sandwiches:
Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord.
Psalms 27:14

"...and may the odds be ever in your favor!"
As The Hunger Games continues to garner fame and readers, I relish in the fact that people are starting to [rightly] love it. Alongside Harry Potter [Yes, alongside. Yes, I know what this means] it is one of my favourite book series of all times. The movie is set to come out next March [AHHH SO SOON!] and, if you have read it, you know that it is absolutely amazing movie material.
To give you a little baby summary, I'll do so now. The Hunger Games takes place in the future, after humans have done stupid human things and the world has had a whole bunch of earthquakes and such. America is left in a pitiful state, divided into 12 districts [technically 13] and the Capitol. The Capitol controls everything and the Districts are each in charge of something important that they provide for the Capitol. Seafood, District 4. Electronics, District 3, etc.
Too much exposition? Perhaps, but I'll continue. To keep the Districts from rebelling, the Capitol holds this thing called the Hunger Games each year. The concept is this: two 'tributes' from each district [a boy and a girl] from the ages of 12 to 18, are put in a lottery of sorts. Whoever's name gets called, they HAVE to participate in the games. What are the games? The games are where the teenagers are entered into an arena, and they have to fight to the death until only one tribute is left.
So, each year, 23 tributes don't come home. Tears all around. The story begins with our heroine, Katniss Everdeen [Just ignore the name; apparently in the future people have no gift in naming children.], who is 16 and totally awesome. She lives in District 12, [which is conveniently enough is in the Appalachian mountains, so *HOLLA* we live in District 12] the poorest and most disadvantaged district, with her mom and her younger sister Prim, who is basically her life. After her dad died in a mining accident, her mom became unresponsive, so she has had to become the sole provider for her family; learning how to illegally hunt and forage, because, food is scarce and death by starvation is often. But, hunting all her life has made her a noob with boys and she has the social skills of a piranha.
SO, when the reaping comes to draw the names for this year's Hunger Games tributes, whose name is called but 12 year old Prim. And of course, Katniss steps up to the plate and volunteers because she knows she has a better chance of survival, and we don't want Prim to die. She has a cat named Buttercup. He literally wins the series. No, really. Like, you have-no-idea sort of literally.
If you think, "but how can this be interesting? Who wants to read this?" I assure you, um, it's awesome. The pacing is phenomenal, and you will literally finish the book within a good 3 hours because you can not put it down. It draws you in and does not let you go. You'll love it like your second child. You'll want to marry it, forever. You'll re-read it right after you read it the first time! And there isn't even any wizards! And the book is still awesome! HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?!
Now, read on, for the movie has yet to be cast, so I'm going to take it upon myself to do the process. So, without further ado, let the casting begin, and may the odds be ever in your favour!
Katniss Everdeen
OKAY, so I have two choices. Okay, so I actually have a thousand choices. BUT, I've brought it down to these two. And ironically enough, my two choices are the front runners. For the record: Katniss is 16 year old girl, with long dark hair that she wears in a boring plait down her back, has olive skin and grey eyes, and a thin body. OH, AND SHE DOESN'T SHAVE HER LEGS.* [ewwww...] Apparently razors are a luxury in District 12.
*I mean, she has better things to do than shave her legs, but, as someone who is perpetually disturbed by hair, I get the grossies.
MMM.
But, the way I look at it is like this:
Hailee and Josh
Jennifer and Alex
If you want it to be about the sexy times and eye candy with a side of acting, go for the latter. If you want to go for legits and cannon power charm, go for the former. I want the former, naturally, but the latter isn't as bad as I put it, and I CAN'T DECIDE. AH.
Gale Hawthorn
When I first saw Ben Barnes' photo I thought YES, YES AND YES. LIKE, YES. I kid you not, the entire time I read the book I saw Ben Barnes face. He is Gale. I haven't seen Prince Caspian but from the trailer, he looks like he has plenty of fire to play Mr. Hawthorn. And, not to mention, if he was able to give a character to anything from The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe series, I'll give him 8 stars, because the source material is about as useful for developing character as a tiny guitar and a bag of marshmallows is to a dolphin.
See, a tiny guitar and a bag of marshmallows is completely useless to a dolphin! Like C.S. Lewis' "literature" is useless to an actor trying to develop character. Because the characters are flat! Gets it? I'm done.
Effie Trinket
Effie is Katniss' escort of sorts who meticulously plans everything. She has a pink wig, and wears tailored clothes with high heals, and has the fortune to be from the Capitol. She's very bubbly, and very blind to the injustices of the Hunger Games as she has lived with them as an entertainment source for all of her privileged life. She's not always bright and she thinks she's always helping out Katniss and Peeta. OH and she has a ridiculous accent.
Up until today, I have wanted Elizabeth Banks. I hated her on Scrubs but something tells me she could play Effie well. She just looks right or something. BUT THEN, I read Allison Janey. You know, Penny's mom in Hairspray. "Devil child, devil child, devil child." UM, YES. The thing about Effie is that she's hilarious; but in that "I'm stupid and I don't know" it sort of way. Kristen Chenoweth is wanted by everyone but I just cannot see it. I think my idea of Effie may be different, because I see her around the same age as Haymitch, who is at least 40, and everyone else seems to see her as younger. Allison Janey, YOU HAVE MY VOTE. I mean, can't you just see her with a pink wig saying, "It's a big, big day!"? UM, YES YOU CAN.
Cinna
Cinna is Katniss' stylist. UM yes they have stylists in the Hunger Games! Did you think they just dropped them off to kill each other? NO. Before they enter the arena, there is this giant preview of the tributes, complete with light-up costumes and interviews. [I wish they had a talent contest, because I would perform Waterloo. I'm not even kidding when I say I have the entire thing choreographed in my head.] Cinna is from the Capitol, but he's rebellious, and he makes excellent costumes for Katniss so she will visually pop and therefore win sponsors. He has brown hair and has a little gold eyeliner.
Okay, so I think Cillian Murphy is very handsome, and although he plays a creeper 80% of the time [but a sexy creeper] I see his awesome presence as very Cinna-like. Cinna is very much a quiet force and Mr. Murphy just exudes that. He can say nothing, and you're watching him anyway. He'd be fabulous. SO FABULOUS.
And he's Chris' acting hero, so I'll give him the honour of more screen cred.
Mrs. Everdeen
Katniss' mom who oddly never gets a name, suffers from depression, and Katniss just doesn't understand. She is fair skinned with blond hair and blue eyes, and a healer. After her husband died, she was left in a catatonic state, leaving Katniss to provide for the family. So she's fragile, but she's excellent and the things she does.
I am in love with Laura Linney. Have you seen The Savages? Why not; are you beyond seeing amazing things? If not, go check it out. Now. She's an amazing actress, and I love her so very, very much. She's done several unstable roles, so I know she could play Mrs. Everdeen wonderfully. I need her to do this.
There are several other parts within The Hunger Games but I am not so picky about them. I want Prim to be innocent and love animals, and basically be too pure for this evil world. Rue must be black and a decent actress. That opens a lot of doors for African-American actresses [do not whitewash her Hollywood, so help me...] and I don't really want Willow Smith, because she isn't the only girl who is black and 12 years old; she's caught a break, let someone else shine. Madge; be blond? I don't care. [Don't be Taylor Swift though. Girl can't act her way out of a bag] Then there are all the other tributes, such as Thresh, Cato, Glimmer, Clove, Foxface, etc. And Avox Girl! But, yet again, just cast em' and I'll be happy. As long as they look somewhat like people who do things, then so be it.
So, who's left? OH, THAT'S RIGHT, THE PRESIDENT.
President Snow
I honestly, have no idea whatsoever who President Snow should be. A guy kills children for entertainment, who can play that?! OH WAIT, I'LL TELL YOU WHO:
You know when I said Alex Pettyfer was the hottest guy to walk the earth? YEAH, I LIED. Ralph Fiennes is the sexiest thing ever. And he's perfect for President Snow, because, guess what:
Who else murders children? Lord Voldemort. Who is also very snake like? Lord Voldemort. Who likes roses? Um, LORD VOLDEMORT. Okay, maybe not, BUT he totally would. They both have that "we're polite villains" aura of evil thing, which makes them soawesome evil. If Ralph Fiennes was President Snow, then I would be die all over and then twice more.
Okay I'm not done; because I have one more. :) :)
Ceaser Flickman
He is the Ryan Seacrest of the Hunger Games, wearing the same midnight blue suit and stuff. His hair matches his eyelids which matches his lipstick, which changes each year. This year, he chooses light blue for his colour. I present to you, Ceaser Flickman:
AND YES, I COLOURED HIM CORRECTLY. :) I'm totes computer savvy, whut up.
SO, shall we call it a day? I'm going to document every moment; especially because my dear beloved has come to an end, but I do have something VERY exciting to discuss next blog entry regarding the boy wizard.
I scarcely recommend Harry Potter books, because I realize the challenge they are to read, and often, it's such a trudge that it's not always enjoyable; people are turned off by the very first chapter, and I totally understand. When you haven't read it, that first chapter is horrid, and even now it's a hard read for me. BUT The Hunger Games is for everyone in the entire country and other countries and the world. The best way I know how to put it is with the simple phrase we all use as a disclaimer when recommending: you are not prepared.

To give you a little baby summary, I'll do so now. The Hunger Games takes place in the future, after humans have done stupid human things and the world has had a whole bunch of earthquakes and such. America is left in a pitiful state, divided into 12 districts [technically 13] and the Capitol. The Capitol controls everything and the Districts are each in charge of something important that they provide for the Capitol. Seafood, District 4. Electronics, District 3, etc.
Too much exposition? Perhaps, but I'll continue. To keep the Districts from rebelling, the Capitol holds this thing called the Hunger Games each year. The concept is this: two 'tributes' from each district [a boy and a girl] from the ages of 12 to 18, are put in a lottery of sorts. Whoever's name gets called, they HAVE to participate in the games. What are the games? The games are where the teenagers are entered into an arena, and they have to fight to the death until only one tribute is left.
So, each year, 23 tributes don't come home. Tears all around. The story begins with our heroine, Katniss Everdeen [Just ignore the name; apparently in the future people have no gift in naming children.], who is 16 and totally awesome. She lives in District 12, [which is conveniently enough is in the Appalachian mountains, so *HOLLA* we live in District 12] the poorest and most disadvantaged district, with her mom and her younger sister Prim, who is basically her life. After her dad died in a mining accident, her mom became unresponsive, so she has had to become the sole provider for her family; learning how to illegally hunt and forage, because, food is scarce and death by starvation is often. But, hunting all her life has made her a noob with boys and she has the social skills of a piranha.
SO, when the reaping comes to draw the names for this year's Hunger Games tributes, whose name is called but 12 year old Prim. And of course, Katniss steps up to the plate and volunteers because she knows she has a better chance of survival, and we don't want Prim to die. She has a cat named Buttercup. He literally wins the series. No, really. Like, you have-no-idea sort of literally.
If you think, "but how can this be interesting? Who wants to read this?" I assure you, um, it's awesome. The pacing is phenomenal, and you will literally finish the book within a good 3 hours because you can not put it down. It draws you in and does not let you go. You'll love it like your second child. You'll want to marry it, forever. You'll re-read it right after you read it the first time! And there isn't even any wizards! And the book is still awesome! HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?!
Now, read on, for the movie has yet to be cast, so I'm going to take it upon myself to do the process. So, without further ado, let the casting begin, and may the odds be ever in your favour!
Katniss Everdeen

*I mean, she has better things to do than shave her legs, but, as someone who is perpetually disturbed by hair, I get the grossies.
 |
| Haliee Stienfield |
She literally looks just like Katniss. At first I didn't like her, but the more I look at her the more I think, "that's it, it is." She's too smiley, and not very fierce looking, but apparently she's awesome in True Grit, and if girl can act, then I have no objections. A few things though; she's 14, which is rather young. Not only are there child labor laws to dance with, but if Pettyfer, who is a lovely 21, gets Peeta, then it'll get squicky real quick. I have a solution to this in my Peeta casting, but I still want Pettyfer more than anything. Guys, she's so perfect. Look at the picture; look at her; look at the picture; look at her. She can act and she looks just like her. Make it happen Hollywood.
Well, no, I don't necessary like her. Apparently she can act as well, like Oscar nomination act, and on that matter, I feel confident in her abilities. And as an actress [HAR], acting is what's most important to me. BUT, according to a very large rumor from a reliable source, she delivered like none other, and she's already landed the role; they're just working out the little stuff. So, I'll have to start liking her if that be the case.

| Jennifer Lawrence |
The only thing I disagree with, a lot, is her look. She's very blond and very curvy and she's also 20. Today I was thinking, "OMG that's so old" but then, I thought, "OMG I'm 20," so now I'm okay with it. What I'm not okay with is that she's almost too hot for Katniss; too buxom and curvy. You can't tell here because I picked the most natural photo I could find, but she is very womanly looking. BUT, after all, this is film, and there is such thing as making her look legit, AND she'd look great across from Pettyfer.
Peeta Mellark
The leading male, he's described as having blond hair that falls in waves, and blue eyes. He's also stocky/strong and quite handsome. He's the baker's son and he is gifted at frosting AND painting. A gifted speaker, he's extremely nice; and sweet, and thoughtful...and I just want to spend a lot of time with him in some caves. Or on the beach. ;)

| Alex Pettyfer |
MMMMMM.
MMMMMMM.
There has never been a man more handsome to walk upon this earth. Part of me thinks I want him cast so I can oggle him forever. A lot of people don't want him because he's a "bad actor." But, I think he's alright; he's not fabulous, but he's not bad. Peeta isn't quite as conflicted as everyone else [ignoring the 3rd book], and from what I've seen of Pettyfer, he could do it. He's 21, so he would be great across from Lawrence. I think he'd look too old across from Stienfield; but every part of my being wants the two of them to have the parts. Yet again, he looks like the character, he can act decently, so, why ever not Hollywood?
Saying this though, he's said to have an attrocious attitude and be an absolute diva. Although it is acting, Peeta is a far cry from moody and divalicious. So, it depends on if the rumors are true, if he has sweetness somewhere and if he can play that.

| Josh Hutcherson |
Yeah, this is the little guy who was on Firehouse Dog and Bridge to Terabithia. He's a good 18, so just around perfect, and when I first saw him for the casting, part of me just thought, that wouldn't be so bad. Make him blond, and I think he looks a lot like Peeta. And he can act in that whole self-deprecating, adorable way that makes me love Peeta so much. He's a lot like Peeta and that' something I can appreciate, unlike Mr. Diva above. [it may not be true though!] I dunno, I want Stienfield and Pettyfer, and maybe this'll happen. But I want Hutcherson, because he's so like Peeta! And he'd look marvy next to Haliee. AH, DECISIONS.
And of course, these two are ironically the big name players in the running. SO, basically, all I do is win.
And of course, these two are ironically the big name players in the running. SO, basically, all I do is win.
But, the way I look at it is like this:
Hailee and Josh
Jennifer and Alex
If you want it to be about the sexy times and eye candy with a side of acting, go for the latter. If you want to go for legits and cannon power charm, go for the former. I want the former, naturally, but the latter isn't as bad as I put it, and I CAN'T DECIDE. AH.
Gale Hawthorn
Gale is Katniss' very best friend. His dad died the same mining accident as Katniss' dad, and they have hunted together since she was 11, helping each other and exchanging knowledge. Gale is 18, and he has back hair and dark eyes, and is often mistaken for Katniss' cousin. He helps take good care of her family, and he's gifted with traps.
In general, I'm not all that fond of Gale. Part of this may be because I thought he was a girl before we met him, because he has the exact same name as my mom. Then I was like, OH WAIT, HE'S A GUY. He's also sort of angry and moody, and I don't have the patience for it. I mean, Katniss is moody enough, and she's the narrator, so we get plenty of the mood, thanks.

| Ben Barnes |
See, a tiny guitar and a bag of marshmallows is completely useless to a dolphin! Like C.S. Lewis' "literature" is useless to an actor trying to develop character. Because the characters are flat! Gets it? I'm done.
Haymitch Abernathy
Haymitch is Katniss' very, very, very drunk mentor, and former victor of the Hunger Games. He's described as sort of fat and paunchy and he does things like get drunk and sleep with a knife. He was handsome when he was younger, but now, he's just gross. But I still think he's hot. And, in this universe, I would totally marry Haymitch. Is he an alcoholic jerk? YES. Do I care, in this hypothetical, fictional situation? NO. He eventually raises geese as a hobby when he isn't drinking.
 |
| Robert Downey Jr. |
I am so, so glad I have found this picture of Robert Downey Jr. Cause ya'll; that is Haymitch. Haymitch is snarky and mean, yet loveable, and I have been petitioning for RDJ since I first saw the suggestion. Like, he has to be it. As this picture attests, he has that drunk, rugged, "I live in my own feces" thing down pat.
Effie Trinket
Effie is Katniss' escort of sorts who meticulously plans everything. She has a pink wig, and wears tailored clothes with high heals, and has the fortune to be from the Capitol. She's very bubbly, and very blind to the injustices of the Hunger Games as she has lived with them as an entertainment source for all of her privileged life. She's not always bright and she thinks she's always helping out Katniss and Peeta. OH and she has a ridiculous accent.
 |
| Allison Janey |
Cinna
Cinna is Katniss' stylist. UM yes they have stylists in the Hunger Games! Did you think they just dropped them off to kill each other? NO. Before they enter the arena, there is this giant preview of the tributes, complete with light-up costumes and interviews. [I wish they had a talent contest, because I would perform Waterloo. I'm not even kidding when I say I have the entire thing choreographed in my head.] Cinna is from the Capitol, but he's rebellious, and he makes excellent costumes for Katniss so she will visually pop and therefore win sponsors. He has brown hair and has a little gold eyeliner.
 |
| Cillian Murphey |
And he's Chris' acting hero, so I'll give him the honour of more screen cred.
Mrs. Everdeen
Katniss' mom who oddly never gets a name, suffers from depression, and Katniss just doesn't understand. She is fair skinned with blond hair and blue eyes, and a healer. After her husband died, she was left in a catatonic state, leaving Katniss to provide for the family. So she's fragile, but she's excellent and the things she does.
 |
| Laura Linney |
There are several other parts within The Hunger Games but I am not so picky about them. I want Prim to be innocent and love animals, and basically be too pure for this evil world. Rue must be black and a decent actress. That opens a lot of doors for African-American actresses [do not whitewash her Hollywood, so help me...] and I don't really want Willow Smith, because she isn't the only girl who is black and 12 years old; she's caught a break, let someone else shine. Madge; be blond? I don't care. [Don't be Taylor Swift though. Girl can't act her way out of a bag] Then there are all the other tributes, such as Thresh, Cato, Glimmer, Clove, Foxface, etc. And Avox Girl! But, yet again, just cast em' and I'll be happy. As long as they look somewhat like people who do things, then so be it.
So, who's left? OH, THAT'S RIGHT, THE PRESIDENT.
President Snow
I honestly, have no idea whatsoever who President Snow should be. A guy kills children for entertainment, who can play that?! OH WAIT, I'LL TELL YOU WHO:
 |
| Ralph Fiennes AKA Beast of Sex |
Who else murders children? Lord Voldemort. Who is also very snake like? Lord Voldemort. Who likes roses? Um, LORD VOLDEMORT. Okay, maybe not, BUT he totally would. They both have that "we're polite villains" aura of evil thing, which makes them so
Okay I'm not done; because I have one more. :) :)
Ceaser Flickman
He is the Ryan Seacrest of the Hunger Games, wearing the same midnight blue suit and stuff. His hair matches his eyelids which matches his lipstick, which changes each year. This year, he chooses light blue for his colour. I present to you, Ceaser Flickman:

| Regis Phillman |
SO, shall we call it a day? I'm going to document every moment; especially because my dear beloved has come to an end, but I do have something VERY exciting to discuss next blog entry regarding the boy wizard.
I scarcely recommend Harry Potter books, because I realize the challenge they are to read, and often, it's such a trudge that it's not always enjoyable; people are turned off by the very first chapter, and I totally understand. When you haven't read it, that first chapter is horrid, and even now it's a hard read for me. BUT The Hunger Games is for everyone in the entire country and other countries and the world. The best way I know how to put it is with the simple phrase we all use as a disclaimer when recommending: you are not prepared.

11.3.11
I took my pants off.
So, although I got little to no sleep last night, I am in better spirits this morning. Well, now I am. I was in bed around 1 last night; I stayed at Kelly's super late. We played Bananagrams, which I'm not all that fond of because I cannot spell very well; then we played Quelf which is rather fun. I had to be a mummy. Nothing super memorable happened. Then we went up to the studio and played signs, but they just had me as "it" because I'm bad at it as well. We played Ninja Destruction and Samurai. THEN we played "Truth or Dare."
Now, once I have absolutely no secrets and I'm not all that gutsy, this game is easy peasy to me. Truth, and I answer. But, there were about 3 dares. And boy me, they were good. Chase dared TJ to drink pickle juice out of someone's belly button. And he did it. I dared Chris to drink milk and ketchup. And he did it [after much whining, mind you. He thought I'd go easy on him.] Kelly dared Alex to eat a dead lady bug [complete with chewing]. And she did it!
Ya'll, it was hilarious. I am not very courageous on these sort of things, but I love watching others having to do it. After, we hit people with a large exercise peanut and I wrestled Chris to the ground, because I am very strong and he is weak. Before long I became cranky and grumpy, so I went home [and TJ drove behind me to guarantee my safety.]
Great night. Today was a bit hectic, but after two cancelled classes, I still have to stay over for a 3 o'clock meeting because I'm a costume crew chief thing for The A-Train Plays.
So this weekend is scattered because tonight I'm spending the night with Kelly, and tomorrow we're going to the Mall to see Beastly. I know this part should be cut out of my schedule once I have work. But how often do I see Kelly? And I rarely hang out with anyone, especially my bestie who is a good few hours away. This weekend though, I have a monologue to memorize and a french test to study for. I'm auditing a class, because the teacher asked me to be in the show for it. [yeah, I know.], so I have a character analysis for that and lines to memorize.
It's not a big deal, but to do something makes me smile and feel rather blessed. I'm the part of a conjoined twin. Yes, I know, I get the physically disabled part. Except this time I have four legs instead of one. What up. Also, Sideshow perks. "I will never leave youuuu..."
Next week looks less hectic, so I'm ready to breath a little. I'm going to get all my research done for one of my research papers, and then relax some.
Also there is a rumor that if a professor doesn't have a PhD that they are not guaranteed employment. So basically, Dr. Beam is safe if no one else is. Wonders of wonders, miracles of miracles. I am so happy that my BFF is totes safe.
Lets talk about things I like [other than Dr. Beam] now:
There is this new thing called Harry Potter: The Quest. It's basically like the coke points thing for Harry Potter fans. You do internet things, and you get points...? Look, I'm a member, and we're going to have fun. You earn collectibles and stuff. And you know, need.
The movie is coming out April 15th. I didn't really like this movie so much, but whatever, collection purposes. I'm hoping that one day, when I marry someone with a BlueRay player, that he will buy me the massive 4 disk box sets. Like, I need them too. I'm going to have the best future husband ever. Tag this under #thingsIknow.
In May, I'm going to be visiting a certain place where certain wizards flock.
YES HARRY POTTER WORLD! Tonight we are planning everything. It'll be a poor college students trip, with not many school supplies being purchased, [Fortunately, everything can be purchased off the internets.] but moreso a day worth of experience. Kelly and I am going together in May after we get out of school, and before work. Also a trip to Disney and Universal is planned too. We're making the plans tonight and cooking Harry Potter food.
Ya'll, I am so excited. This is my mecca. It is honestly our plan to go there and work after we get out of school. Theatre degree, hello! It's PERFECT. I would be content if I was selling shaved ice in this place. Rumor has it they are thinking of building Gringotts and Diagon Alley, and OH please let it happen.
So...I have to share this on my blog, because I like to share. There are these new dolls, in a franchise entitled Monster High. Now, you know my fondness for monsters, but these dolls are adorable. And ya'll, I want them. Bad. What would I do with them? Probably write blogs about our adventures and have playdates with Alex [who has already agreed with me on these matters.] Yes, I would totally play with them. BUT the important thing is, the new one has been reviled and I am in awe of how awesome she is:
LOOK AT HER LITTLE SEE THROUGH LIMBS? Is that not precious?
I know, I don't need them, and it's silly to want dolls, BUT if Scotty can collect Vinylmations, then I can collect monster dolls. No judging. Even if they have the worst names ever. "Draculara" and "Frankie Stien" to name a few. Also, they have webisodes and I have totally watched every single one.
Oh, stop judging me.

Oh, stop judging me.
So, a bunch of my friends have started reading The Hunger Games. And they are, of course, seeing how phenomenal it is. My main squeeze is in the running for the role of Peeta, BUT everyone is saying he's a super bad actor. I'll judge myself when we go see Beastly, and I hope this isn't true. Because, above all else, I want someone who can act. I know I swoon over this guy, but if he can't act... then, meh, I don't want him. I believe I have picked my Katniss though:
I have yet to see True Grit, and once it's a Western and there are no Aliens/Wizards/Vampires/etc., my interest is limited, BUT she was nominated for an Oscar so I suppose she isn't to shabby. Her eyebrows bother me, but, by the time she reaches 16 I think she'll be fabulous. She's not gorgeous, no, but she's just looks like Katniss to me. And girl can apparently act.
As for Beastly, which I'm seeing tomorrow, I am kind of scared now. The reviews are giving it a very dismal rating. I mean, I wasn't expecting that it would be awesome. It's obviously one of those movies you watch for the sugary and swoony goodness. Sort of like Twilight. You don't go to see Oscar bait; you go to see entertaining junk. But, I hope it's good. Even if it has Vanessa in it. *snear of discontent*
Of course, Little Red Riding Hood looks so bad [and sugary!] that I must see it as well. Even if Gary Oldman is in it, it just has to be bad. Please be so bad you're good. Not like The Room or Human Centipede bad, but, Twilight and Beastly bad.
As long as The Hunger Games is AWESOME I will die so happy.
I'm going to go get food now.

10.3.11
WARNING: COMPLAINING GRUMPY PANTS AHEAD
So, um, AH. I am [back] in the Beam of Doctors class, and I am yet again, blogging. I was on Spring Break last week, and I spent it doing sound [and when I say "doing sound" I mean, I pressed play on the CD player] for Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss. Twas fun, and it was great to be apart of my third Seuss show. Yes, third.
Right now, I am very, very overwhelmed with everything. So much work, and the problem is, I have no focus. All I want to do is look up videos on the internet and read books. I've cut out books and the Sims right now, because if I don't I'll have no focus at all. I should have worked on work during Spring Break, bhut, I didn't.
Company stuff, AH, so much. Like, I want to like the company, I do, but all I really want to do is sleep forever. I feel semi-sort of depressed because I sort of went to college for acting, and I've developed very little. I should have auditioned the first time I came, but my confidence and my nerves got the better of me. I am so uncomfortably shy, and this bothers me as well. I know how to act, but when I know people are watching, I freak out. Being myself is so easy for me; if you don't like me, I don't really care. BUT if you think my portrayal of someone else or something else is weird or not right and if you judge me, it just gets me off and it bothers me. BUT if I feel like I know what I'm doing and it makes sense, then I don't care.
None of this is making sense and I really don't know what I'm typing at this point because I did nothing but write a Beam test for 5 hours last night, and although I got in bed in time, I feel like my sleep level is wayyy off. I brought my Snuggie today so I can nap all day in the library. But I won't get to because I have to write stuff for French.
I'm costume chair thing for the company show; I have a French Quiz Bowl I'm helping out with; I'm doing costumes for the class I'm auditing; I have two research papers; I'm in a show at school; and I don't know, I just want to die. And when I say "die," I mean sleep forever and forever.
Tonight I'm going to play board games at Kelly's house. I'll be grumpy and whiny; I'll warn the lot of you now. Chris summarizes it as "grumpy pants," and he has a voice and a little jig to go with the phrase. We went to Jessup's one night and I spent the entire night being a bear and sleeping on the floor, and I finally cried in Chris' car with fatigue. I don't handle sleep lackage very well.
I'm going to quit typing because this is all a "I am sad, and grumpy, and tired." Perhaps I'll write a blog later today that isn't so...grumpy.
