To be honest, I'm PRAYING that Fang is correct. Because the Max cover is so awesome, and it doesn't look anywhere near lame. And that's Kinda how Water Wings sounds, no offense. Strong, fiery female power is absolutely what Max appears to be about! I mean, which title sounds better for Max and Fang's relationship, especially the way he keeps talking about it on theirnew blog? I mean, his relationship status says: It's Complicated. Intrigue! Unfortunately we must wait until March...
New U2 album comes out in February!
Goatstock at my school is next week Thursday before our PA Day, parent/teacher interviews are tomorrow afternoon so I get out of school at lunch, and Friday is a new Miscellaneous at lunchtime!
Update me on your news so I can add it to the list!
Going to go write more of the climax of Into The Light... so close to being done... Alicia, please read. You're about ten chapters behind Cody and Sara. I love ya, but please.
I attempt to blog when I can, but because no one else blog's much, I have to wait before the page just becomes a blog of posts by me. I concur though. Blog please, because sometimes I start to wonder if you guys are still alive.
So I had my school's big Choreographic Workshop on Friday. You may have already seen some pictures on Facebook, but I thought you all should know that I'm going to buy a DVD of the performance, and show it at our next movie night! *Warning, performance includes monumental amounts of twitching, insanity, and The White Stripes.*
After our performance, we took our time getting the teasing out of our hair and the crazy makeup off of our faces. When my Mom, brother and our friends got out of the auditorium, we all met up and talked to my teacher Ms. Hogg about our performance. Then, Mom, Michael, Blaire, Kathryn, Thomas, Jessica, other Emma, and ME Emma took two different trips to the Queensway movie theatre. We stood in line for Twilight and I saved our seats when everyone else went to get food which included Yogen Fruz and Gummie Bears! We had to run to save those seats by the way, and they turned out pretty well. Twilight was an okay movie. I liked all of the actors except for Kristen Stewart (Bella), Robert Pattinson (Edward) and possibly Taylor Lautner (Jacob). Basically everyone who we love in the book series sucked in the movie. It was really funny at times, and really corny at others. Like when Edward is staring at Bella in the chemistry lab. Just sucked at times, and the camera angles were awful, especially at the beginning. By the way, something I'm ABSOLUTELY DEPRESSED about is something VERY VERY FUNNY AND IMPORTANT that they LEFT OUT OF THE MOVIE!!!
Anyways, I had a writing, hockey and Starbucks day yesterday. Can you guys start reading my story again? The more you read, the more excited to write and finish the story I am. Please? Cody's been great, Sara's been trying, Sophie's given up, and I'm not sure what keeps happening with Alicia. I just want to know that you guys still like my story.
We have to get together to see Twilight in theatres, mock, laugh, and add our own dialogue!!!
Hey everybody, so I'm assuming you all went to work with your parents. Well, I'm sorry, but mine was better.
This morning I went downtown to my Dad's new building. We met some people, then went for a Starbucks. I sat in ten minutes of an acronym filled meeting which I didn't understand, then ran to catch the tour bus for the kids. And who did I meet on the bus? But my friend from my class at school Maddie, and my friend Thomas' girlfriend Jessica! It was very very coincidental, because we all happened to be sitting in the same area of the bus. So we laughed, got people to wave at us, and yelled at people to try and get the eerie silence of the bus to die. We did this huge tour of the three CanWest Buildings. First we ate Timbits, and took pictures with the 90210 poster in the Barber Green building. We went behind the scenes of ET Canada, and then a group of us went onstage and met Rick Campenneli. (I hope that's how you spell it.) Me on the ET Canada Stage in front of camera.
The whole group, me at the right side, Maddie in the pink, Jessica in the black.
We did the traffic, learned how to work the weather screen (we made the entire USA so windy and cold that you can't see it anymore.) I even read an entertainment newscast off a teleprompter. Then we watched an epsisode of the Global TV Show 'The Guard' that would air on TV for the first time later tonight. It only arrived at the studio this morning. Duncan Clarke and another journalist from the National Post talked to us about life as a reporter and working on a paper. We got these special newspapers printed with our faces on them and an article about our trip. We saw a really hot construction guy, and played Are You Smarter Than A Canadian Fifth Grader?On our way to Dose online magazine. We went into their offices and saw a Rise Against poster, and chatted with them all about Twilight. I even won a prize pack with t-shirts and stuff by answering a trivia question.
Q: What is the name of Jacob Black's father? A: Billy Black!
Maddie got to film a movie of Jessica and I in front of our whole group. It was a spoof of Heroes. I was invisible woman. I ran at Jess and dissappeared so she looked around wildly. Because of the fact that she's fire woman, she made a flame in her hand, but I attacked her and she exploded! It only took two minutes to make those awesome special effects!
It was a lot of fun, and now I'm sad to go back to school tomorrow! Jess is coming to the choreographic workshop Thomas and I have to do, and after that we're going to watch the Twilight movie, so not all good things come to an end!!!
As you know, this morning Katie and I were on BT with our school and the stars + choreographer of High School Musical. Now, you know I don't love the movies much, but the people were really nice. I woke up at 5:00, and laid drifting in and out of sleep until 5:30 when I had to get up. It's my Dad's birthday, so Mom had a banner put up for him and his presents out, and we shared coffee with him super early in the morning. I got to school, and sat with some friends, freaking out that Kheyla wouldn't arrive on time. She did (thankfully). We talked to Jennifer Valentine, I was on TV, I was asking a question when a girl interrupted me... It was an interesting morning. And now I shall watch Pushing Daisies, plan my 'club chic' clothes for So You Think You Can Dance tomorrow, and write write write write write. If I had any hope left, I would tell everyone but my ever faithful Cody to read read read.
To start off, I should say that my 'Woohoo' has nothing to do with your current situation Olivia. I knew way before what was going on with George, and I have to say, you are so much better off now. You're strong.
So, my 'woohoo' is actually about my life. I love that fact. So, today, I went with my parents to the Toronto Fall Bike Show. Then we went to a pub for lunch, and I got a Pumpkin Spice Latte at Starbucks on the way home. I worked on my theory homework in the car. Key signatures, the Circle Of Fifths and stuff.
BUT the exciting stuff is what's going on this week. On Tuesday morning, I have to be at school at 6:45 AM. Very early. But there's a good reason. We're going to be on Breakfast Television! Jennifer Valentine and Live Eye are going to see SPLASH perform, and talk about life at an arts school. And guess who else just has to be there? Two stars from High School Musical. The day after, my Musical Theatre class specifically gets to be in the front of the audience for the results show taping of So You Think You Can Dance Canada? The show will air the day after, on Thursday at its regular time.
Despite the huge workload including mime homework, and my extra dance group where we convulse to The White Stripes in preperation for our special dance Choreography workshop, I LOVE ESA!
I updated our blog, so read over the sides. If there's something you'd like me to add, please let me know. Oh, and, Alicia? Are you still alive?
I'm assuming at least one of you experienced the same problem. Most likely Sophie because she lives closest. Since Friday night, just before karate, to early this morning, the phone lines and internet have been down. We don't know why, but Bell called us and explained it wouldn't be fixed until today. Which meant that we've been using our cellphones and NO INTERNET for the past almost THREE DAYS!!!! OUCH IT HURTS!
But it's back now. Hurray! I'm currently catching up on internet thingy-ma-bobs and watching the last episode of season one of Pushing Daisies. It's awesome and quirky and I love Kristen Chenowith as Olive. Yes, the character's name is Olive.
Oh, Jeanette, ESA's official end of the year musical is Urinetown. Look it up on Youtube, and you will understand. I have to work on research for my Geography essay, and then I'm heading up to my Aunt Jackie's house for Givens' family Thanksgiving.
Yay! We're here, in October. The air flows cool, the colours grow warm, the scents are of gourdes... It's a good time! It's also Cut Out Dissectionmonth. You can download the calender and other helpful tips to help make our schools more animal friendly here.
Today I had my first dance evaluation. I don't get to find out how well- or not well- I'm doing until my first report card though. I feel pretty good about it though, especially for not having any prior experience. Drama class was fun today. I danced a lot, laughed a lot, kicked Rebecca a lot. It was good! You have no idea how one cup of coffee first thing in the morning can make my day so much better!
Sara, I have to let you know that my wonderful mother has already pre-ordered our copy of Appeal To Reason. And there is still no way that this Oscar kid is more obsessed than Rise Against than I am. Did he fly to San Fransisco, California, USA to see them in a fabulous concert where they played a gorgeous Swing Life Away as the encore? No. I didn't think so. Alicia, if you'd like I can burn The Sufferer and The Witness next time you come over to my house. When you give me that awesome friends DVD you made me.
You all better love the movie Stardust. Well, if you've read the original book of it, you should know that the author is Neil Gaiman. His, The Graveyard Book just came out, and here is a fantastic video of poetry reading he read. It's instructions on what to do if you fall into a fairy tale. It's very good advice people. Listen closely.
Sara, I pray too for your Nonno. I know what having a Nonno in the hospital is like. And Jeanette, for your massive homework load. Not that I don't have my own.
So today was pretty good. I had dance class first thing in the morning, and I have to say that I thought I did pretty well. I even got a small compliment from Ms. Hogg on the floor work. That made me feel way better about it. And then we got to swear in drama class. And next week we get to be little people making tea for a giant.
Sara and Alicia are the two people who've told me they're buying my book. Next time I see you please! And Alicia, when do you want singing lessons to start? It's up to you. But on Tuesdays.
Don't have much to say today. Pretty tired, but about to work on some more of my story. Anyone read chapter 7 and 8 yet? I can't wait for your feedback, so I hope you can get that to me soon. It will start to get better very soon, when they make it to the cottage. Trust me. Way better.
Thanks for the limerick compliment Olivia. And because of it, I will put up my limerick from my poetry anthology for you to read. Tell me what you think this time!
