There's a Tempest blowing in!

I'm in my favorite Shakespeare piece: The Tempest. It's a blast. Being a sprite has been one of the best roles I've ever had. Just being in the throes of the theatre makes me happy.

I don't want it to end, but all good things must.

Feathers, hot glue, ice cream and classical music.

Cristal and I are making hair pieces tonight. They're pretty much amazing in every way. But now it happens to be quite past the second hour of the night and I am tired of making them. We've been going at it since 8:30 with a short break in between to get delicious ice cream (vanilla dipped in chocolate for Cristal and Oreo with mint for myself.) and visit Austin at work. Really though, we've been working hard. Definitely made some neat stuff.

Anyway, I was lying by the door and pointed to Jose and said
"See? There's my ass."
Cristal replied, "I like him."
"Jose likes to... Oh never mind. That would be swearing."
"What were you going to say?"
"Jose likes to sit on his ass..."
"I like to sit on mine, too."

How am I supposed to not love this girl? I mean, honestly. Hahaha. :)
For sure one of the best nights I've had in a while.

No worries. I'll be posting pictures of our pretty creations soon. :)

Word.

Noah's Farce?

I was going through some old Word documents today, and I happened to stumble upon one of my old writing assignments from last year. In theatre, we had to write a script on a story or fairy-tale. I chose Noah's Ark. Last year I was really embarrassed about it because I didn't think I was a good writer. Going through this story again made me rethink that statement. I made myself laugh. Granted, I always make myself laugh, but this time felt different. It was like I wasn't reading my own script. It was someone else's. And it was legitimately funny to me. I wanted to share it.


Noah’s Farce?
(Noah’s wife cleaning in kitchen. Noah walks in. Noah is “ad libbing” the entire time, so there are lots of pauses and scrambling for thought)

Wife: Hi, Noah dear. How was your day?
Noah: (hesitantly) Oh! It was interesting.
Wife: Really? Interesting how?
Noah: (pauses) A friend came to visit.
Wife: A friend? Anyone I know?
Noah: Well, he’s pretty well known—by most people, really.
Wife: You mean like a celebrity?
Noah: Uh, yeah! Like a celebrity.
Wife: Wow, dear, I never you had such a high status among people. I thought you were considered as sort of a nut, what with all the preaching.
Noah: Other people might think I’m a nut, but this man is very down to earth! He visited me to give me a special job opportunity.
Wife: A job? Well, I hope it’s better than the last one you had. I mean honestly. That last man ran you to the ground.
Noah: He’ll be better than the boss before. I promise. He’s very rewarding. And… kind.
Wife: So what’s the job?
Noah: A boat. An ark, actually. He wants me to build a giant ark for all of his animals. He’s very passionate with his animals.
Wife: An ark, for what? And for animals? What is this all for?
Noah: He says the world is going to flood. He wants us and our family and whoever believes him to use it, too. That’s my other job—getting other people to believe him, as well as building the ark. So I’ve got my hands full.
Wife: How in the world does he know that the earth is going to flood? Since when do people know these things?
Noah: You might say he works in weather a lot.
Wife: Honey, you have me terribly confused! Would you mind telling me what is going on, and who this man is?
Noah: Well, there’s no need to beat around the bush. The “friend” would be God, and he commanded me to build the ark because he’s going to flood the earth, what with all the evil people and their obstinacy, and the ark is where we’ll put all the animals.
Wife: You’re kidding. Tell me you’re joking. (waits for answer) Say, “April Fools!” or something!
Noah: Um, April Fools.
Wife: (stunned) You’re actually serious, aren’t you?
Noah: That would be correct.
Wife: Oh dear. (thinks) Hold on, you said you were putting animals on the ark. You can’t expect me to believe you are going to put every single animal on God’s green earth on one ark. It’s not feasible!
Noah: Not all animals, of course. Just two from every species.
Wife: And how do you propose we get all the animals here, FedEx?
Noah: Of course not! We’ll use UPS. (laughs) Be realistic, dear, God will send them to us.
Wife: All right. If you’re so sure, and you are honestly going to go through with it, then I support you one hundred percent.
Noah: Thanks, dear. Well, I have to go try my luck with the people. What time is dinner?
Wife: Six-thirty, as usual. Don’t be late, please.

Two people who absolutely adore me, and I them.

So two people who between them call me practically every day. Sometimes two. I dig it. Their names are Alexis Marie Williams and Tanners Ross Shipp. How neat. They're exceedingly fun people. I like them a lot.

This is my post. I am Megan.

Fin.

ACK! I just sneezed!

Wow. Just wow. I read through all of my previous posts, and maybe two entries had a relevant title. That's... odd.

And... I had some weird punctuation and grammatical decisions going. Just saying.

But I did laugh at all of Celeste's comments. She's a witty girl, she is.

I also wanted to mention that earlier today, I was reading through that witty girl's blog. I finished early on my biology test so I hopped on and took a peek! It was really dumb of me to do it in the middle of the test lab while everyone was around me taking a test. I basically wanted to pee my pants her posts were so hilarious. But I had to refrain. For one, peeing your pants in the middle of school is about the worst thing you could do. For two, I had to be considerate of the others around me by not bursting out into very loud laughter. For three, I was sitting next to the kid I have liked since the beginning of the year whom I cannot talk to for odd and unknown reasons, and I really did not want to make him think I was any more of a geeky loser. I wanted to show him her posts, but he seemed very involved in his online game of pinball. So I just teared up and silently laughed to myself. It was... special.

I burnt my tongue tonight. Drinking hot cocoa. I hate burning my mouth. It's awful. I am not enjoying this. :(

Wow. I have this incredible migraine. I took a muscle relaxer about... say, forty minutes ago. I think it's kicking in because I cannot spell or type or say smart things for my life. I would laugh at myself if I had the energy. So I guess I'll just sit here. Hmmm. I wonder what I look like right now. Probably a droopy-eyed idiot wriggling her eyebrows to express herself. hahaha

I would like to appologize right now for all of the stupid things I just typed. I don't know how intelligent they sound. Blame it on the pill. Bahahaha

So there you have it. Another eccentric post. Two in one day! I'm on a roll!

Chopin was a man, too.

So really, I know it's lame I haven't posted in a freakload of a long time. That's kinda how I do.

Main events:
Acting. I love it. Jumping into it again! :D
Dance company. Terribly sad it's over. Dance tryouts are this week. Hmmmm. Dang.
Tuacahn. They like me. I get to sing for them every month. Oh shoot. I need to practice. Bahahaha.

In other news, I have free time on my hands. I highly enjoy it. I should go swimming tomorrow morning. And every other chance I get. Hey! Like on the 21st! Party! YEAH! :D

I wish my posts were as legit as Celeste's... I aspire to be like her. Hmmm. Well.

By the way, the weather is crazy today. I walked outside this morning to my car and headed straight back inside to change from shorts to pants. It was raining like nobody's business! All right, so it wasn't that bad, but it was still raining. And of course that was the night I decided to leave my windows partly unrolled. That was dumb.

Then today during my free period I went and got pictures for my scrapbook page for dance company. So as I was at Wal-Mart, I was hungry so I bought some cinnamon swirl bread and butter along with some plastic cutlery. I snacked on that, and now I have plastic cutlery for my car again. Japanese class will not be taking them again, thank you! Actually, running out to my car during class just so we could eat Japanese treats with cutlery was really fun. I would do it again. :D But I digress.

Sunday night Celeste mentioned I need to get over that darned Kevin.(This live version doesn't do the recorded version justice, but... it definitely shows enough.) Ironically, I met a Kevin at Sinclair last night. I about died from laughter. On the inside, though. He thought I was odd enough. But obviously not odd enough to leave after his pizza was done. He just stood there and talked to Austin and I for what seemed like ages. It was super fun. We know how to party. I wonder if he ever got Dr. Mario out of his head... Hmmmm.

Speaking of last night, I met the coolest couple ever at Barnes & Noble. They were looking at movies, and somehow I ended up talking to her. It started with The Pianist. Then it evolved to foreign films. Where it later evolved to classical movies, acting, their children's schooling futures... It was nuts. They did end up buying one of my suggested movies, though. :) I really, really enjoyed that couple. They told me the reason they home school their kids is so they can travel a lot. Neat, huh! They said they wanted to take their kids to all 50 states before they "leave the nest." They're on state 43 so far, and their oldest is 14. They're on a roll, if you ask me. I was wishing I could be one of their children!

Tonight I must do homework and practice. I must, I must. Hmmm. I think with my free Tuacahn tickets I'll go see Tarzan first. :D It looks like it will be so much fun. I hear that Cats is incredible, too. But I've always made fun of Cats. I think it is the weirdest storyline. I'll debate on going to that one. But who knows. You never know what you like until you find out what it actually is.

Dum dum dum... DUMB!\

Ah, I love anime conventions.

I can’t wait for the convention that’s coming to my town. It’s probably going to be tiny, but I don’t care--I get to dress up as Link! I’m totally stoked. ^_^ *Looks at time* Ack! It’s late for my tired body. *Eyes getting droopier* Must... Sleep... *Head smacks keyboard* WH-WHOA!

Peace.

Aaw, she's so cute. ^_^

Hailey.
Yes. Hailey.
She is a very cute girl.
And it was her birthday on Friday.
She turned 12.
But in all actuality, she's 3.
But nonetheless old enough to be in Young Womens.
I'm so excited for her.
I would use an excamation point for that last statement.
But I'm only using periods.
Back to the main point.
Hailey is totally cute.
And I love her.
A great deal.
Very great.
The end.
Peace.

Schoom!

Dad's really funny.
He says he'll only be a minute with someone, and he ends up being an hour. The one and only reason is, is that he talks. Boy, does he talk. Talk, talk, talk. Wow, I was sitting in the car this morning, and I read two, or three large chapters while I waited; then started listening to music when he finally came over to the car to go, and then he sat and talked some more with the guy! I didn't wholly mind, I was part of the conversation at this point, but we still spent a good 15 minutes more there. Gosh, silly daddy...

I also ask him a simple question and he goes on and on about it for, at least, another 15 minutes after the question was answered. Once, while I was doing math, I asked about taxes and he gave me a lecture of it for an hour and a half. O_O I decided since I had a thorough lecture, that would suffice for my math. That talk took longer than it would have if I had done my math without any questions. Oh, dear.

So basically, be careful about what you ask my dad. You might have enough information on the subject to write a book.

Peace.

Celebration time, come on!

YEAH! I made it to my Italian class on time! I was even early by like, a minute! Yesss... I rock. haha, Just kidding, I really don't. Not as hardcore as I'm thinking, anyway. Meh, what do you do?

Peace.

-_- Ohmigosh.

I seem to have trouble getting to my Italian class on time. The first time (two weeks ago), I forgot about the time when we were at basketball practice, and then Mallory said it was 6:23. O_O I was like, "What time is it?!" Yeah, I was late. And then this last week Celeste's car wouldn't start. What the heck! The one day it doesn't want to start is the day I need to go to Italian. Suffice to say, I was a little late again. -_- So maybe this time I'll do better.

But I love my class, and my instructor is HOT! His name is Trevor. He's really nice. ^_^ I have fun looking at him... *blushes* You would too if you saw him!

Peace.

Nooo! Don't do it!! *Smack* O_O

So this last Thursday, our church team had a basketball game (Yippee!). I LOVE basketball. Love it, love it, love it. Anyway, I think our coach Kristen was having some trouble, so I only got to go in for the first half for a VERY short time. Meh, oh well. I was playing the beautiful game of basketball, and I was being my vicious self, so--as always--I end up on the ground. In which Kristen replies, "Megan, everytime I look up you're on the ground!" It was HILARIOUS! It was so well timed I couldn't help but laugh my butt off. I was laughing so hard I had to force myself to keep playing the game. ^_^

So I got taken out, and then not long after, half time came. I decided that because I hadn't really warmed up at the beginning of the game, I'd warm up then. I'm warming up, and as I'm jumping to do a lay-up, one of my girls moved to RIGHT WHERE I WAS GOING TO LAND. It was terrifying. I didn't know what to do so I tried to readjust in midair--not a good idea, ladies and gentlemen--and I ended up coming down on my foot wrong so it rolled my ankle sideways. Then I heard *crunch*. OWIE!! I just crumpled on the ground and, honestly, I wanted to scream. But I couldn't! I couldn't cry, I couldn't talk, I couldn't scream, nothing. I was helpless. I was carried over to the record table to sit there and ice my foot. I wasn't able to go back into the game so I just sat and watched. MAN, that ankle hurt! But as I was watching, I thought, "wow! Mallory is doing awesome!" I mean, she may not be the best ball handler, and she has trouble shooting, but she was getting all of the rebounds. It was so cool. She probably got more than our team combined. She was on fire! I was yelling at her that she was doing amazing and to keep going. Our team ended up smoking the other one. It was thirty-something to twenty-something so we didn't do bad at all. But I think the biggest part was because Mallory would get the rebounds and then pass it off to someone who could shoot and dribble. It was a very good plan. ^_^

But I went to the doctor's on Friday and found out that it wasn't broken. HOORAY! I didn't think it was broken, but you never know. I sure couldn't walk on it and it was a gigantic bruised THING. It was disgusting. Yuck.

So that's my incredible tale! I guess the moral of the story is, is that you shouldn't try to readjust your body in midair. It doesn't work. Just mow down the person in your way. >.>

The end.

Umm... Dogs?

I seem to have a type of mood swing situation with my dogs. One day I hate their guts and the next I'm cuddling up next to them as if I've always thought of them as the apples of my eye. -_- I'm so confused. Why can't I make up my mind?! Do I like the little beasts or not?! I guess I'll never know. I sure had a rough go with them this week, that's for sure. But today I laid on the floor just so I could snuggle them, and then I fell asleep with them in my arms! It was very cute, but ultimately befuddling. o_O Hmmm...

So I suppose I must close with both the reader and the author pretty darn stupified. Oh well!

Peace.

Gosh, only in Washington, Utah...

So today I was heading outside to pick up the mail, and there's this freakin' ROOSTER out in the street. What the weirdo?! That was one of the strangest things I've seen in St. George, besides seeing the cowboys crousin' around on horseback in the Wal*Mart parking lot o_O. I live in a town of hicks! There are a bunch of cows here, too. Oh, and don't forget the horse motel! Phew, all of this hick discussion is making me tired! >.> Anyway, the point is: hickville=crazy.

Oh, no! It's the attack of the jackanapes!

Hmmm... I've been reading a TON lately, and I've really gotten into manga like I never have before. It's very refreshing and usually keeps you on your toes. YAY FOR MANGA!! ^_^ So I've been reading The Prince of Tennis, Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle, FullMetal Alchemist, Fruits Basket, and Bleach. I've been trying to get Death Note, Mushi-shi, Vampire Knight, and XXXHolic. Someday I'll make it to them, and we will have a great time together! Yuss...

Then for books I've been reading the Time Quartet; and for books on tape I'm listening to Tennis Shoes Adventure Series and starting on The Alchemist. I'm really interested in what The Alchemist has to offer. It's written by a Spanish author, and was translated. I hope it's good. *Crosses fingers*

Recently--although I've finished them--I've read Howl's Moving Castle, and Castle in the Air. They were AWESOME. In fact, I really want them for Christmas. I hope I get them, I might pass out if I don't--wait, I might pass out if I GET them. >.> Gosh, I love those books. ^_^

All I have to say is, everyone who reads this should pick up these books and manga. Yup, yup!

Fleeing the country because my local laundromat closed.

Writin' about fun stuff is neat! Speaking of fun stuff... I wore a crazy go nuts outfit today, just so I could wear my purple pumps. It was THE BEST. I got two complements from two different people at my school about my earrings, too. That was cool, I had a good time.



And then I had a 3-4 1/2 hour nap... That felt nice! I'm glad I got one, I was starting to wonder if I'd ever be able to fall asleep. >.> Oh, no! Because you know, mono contaminated girls named Megan need their sleep. Yup, yup!

I like...anime. Yup. I really want to watch more anime. In fact, I think I'll do that now! *Runs to go watch Bleach*

Riding a donkey is NOT the most comfortable way to travel.

Well, although my title is completely irrelevant to this entire post, I figure it doesn't really matter right now.

Um... Honestly, Celeste told me to post but I have no idea what to write. Hi, Celeste!

I don't have a life, so what do I write about? How Zoey pesters everybody? Or how Buddy is completely unsociable? Well, I don't know! So here's your post you wanted, Celeste, my totally lame one. ^_^

May 18, Friday night Adventure!

So on Friday night I went to Teisha's 80's style birthday party; it was fun, but it could have been better if it weren't so awkward dancing around all these people I don't know, and the fact that they would give you strange looks just because you didn't know them.

Well anyway, so I was dancing; feeling both lonely and pretty nutty, and then Gabby and Riley came along (Hooray!) and we danced, acted like imbeciles, and laughed a lot.

So one of the times we stopped dancing because we were about to fall over, Riley suggested Gabby and I have a sleepover at her house. So I called my mom asking her permission; got it; went back inside to finish the party; got picked up; went over to Riley's house; ate orange chicken, chow mein, and fried rice; watched our Ghostbusters music video 4 times, watched Howl's Moving Castle with Gabby on the floor, and Riley and myself on her parent's bed and everyone but me fell asleep; thought Howl was really, really cute; went to sleep after the movie; was woken up by Gabby saying she was leaving, and Riley and I said our groggy goodbyes; we both fell back asleep; was awakened again, but this time by Sister Rawson saying my mom was coming to pick me up in 10 minutes, hurried and "got dressed";

Okay, okay, okay. So you take one look and Howl and you fall in love. It makes me want to hug him, I would if I had the chance!

This will be a definite buy for myself, and then I'll venture on to other Hayao Miyazaki films. They seem fantastic to me!

The point of this blog is, if you love anime, you'll start thinking the characters are hot. >.>

The end.
