I already complained about this to just about everybody and their MOM, but I'll say it here too.
Cleaning up my room I realized i have a ridiculous amount of notebooks (I'm a writer. So sue me.) and nowhere to put them. So until my room is all the way cleaned and I'm ready to get things to put all my notebooks in, I'm putting them in a large black garbage bag.
Its like suffocating myself. I practically live in my notebooks and the worlds and characters I create in them. It SUCKS.

light your torch mount your horse
OH GOD YOU GUYS.
opening night ROCKED.
Belle was GORGEOUS, Chip was ADORABLE, the Beast was AWESOME. (And... If i do say so myself, those gargoyles were pretty chill.) (ha. i'm not conceited. pffft)
All in all, it went really well. We got a LOT of applause and it was just.... amazing.
Other than the fact that I killed my elbow on my mom's coffee maker this morning, wore heels all day long so my feet hurt, then ran over my toe with one of the wagons for the show, it was... AHGIEWBGASLKDNFQEITHREWSAHTIEWTHASIGHRSLIGFQUWIEHGSRDKJGP(#WY@T@OGHR"2p963p49HGLSKDGFWRHNREQGTIL
There are no words to describe it guys.

This is just a quick update for you guys.
Did anyone else know that Harry Potter is being BANNED in certain parts of the US and the UK?!?!?!?
WTF????
I dun get it guys. They're BANNING one of the most-loved series in the WORLD. (Someone in my advisory just informed me that this has been going on for a while but I JUST FOUND OUT D:)
That's such BULL if you ask me. Leave a comment letting me know what you guys think about HP being banned!

Prejudice is Ignorace
I'm going to say pretty much the exact same thing here that I said on a clip on YouTube the other day.
This week's episode of Glee made my day. The fact that Darren Criss played an openly gay character at an all-guy's school where they have a zero-tolerance policy for harassment makes me wish that the world were more like that. My school is really similar, even though it's a public co-ed school. We have a GSA and even though there's still the odd 'gay' joke (which bugs me), we have a zero-tolerance policy. What makes me really sad is that there are people who are afraid to come out of the closet, because they're afraid of what their friends or family will say. Newsflash, guys! If they really are your friends, they're not gonna care if you're gay, straight, or bi. I'm bi and I'm not afraid to admit it. I'm not ashamed of it either. In fact, I'm pretty damn proud of myself for being who I am.
I wish that everyone could be as accepting as my school. As Robbie Ray recently said in an episode of Hannah Montana Forever (Yes I DO watch HMF, thank you very much.) "If grown men could hug like teenage girls, there would be no war."
As you go through your day, keep the Golden Rule in mind guys. Treat others the way you want to be treated.

Part of Your World
Well now. This post is about both The Little Mermaid and being part of something different. I'll get into my "outfit design" for the Little Mermaid later.
Right now, I'm going to talk about a college I went to with my mom not too long ago. The college is called Keuka, and it's on the finger lakes in New York. It's a small school, but I really enjoyed it. It's a sweet campus, right on Keuka Lake, and about... I wanna say twenty minutes to an hour away from a town called Penn Yan, which I absolutely fell in love with.
I'm definitely going to apply there when I start applying to colleges. I need to look at some other schools, obviously, but Keuka would definitely be my first choice.
Now onto my "outfit design" for today! Little Mermaid inspired - Part of your World:
I feel like whenever someone says the word "Mermaid" people automatically think of Ariel from the Little Mermaid, and with good reason. With her beautiful red hair, her innocent, bubbly and quirky personality, and her odd group of sea creature friends, Ariel has engraved herself into the mind of every person who has ever seen the Little Mermaid.
This outfit is inspired by Ariel as a mermaid. So without further ado, here we go!
http://claremontclothing.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/v-neck-with-cap-sleeves2.jpg - Purple like Ariel's seashell bra! :D Cause I mean, come on. What little girl didn't want to wear that seashell bra?
http://www.usadanceshoes.com/latin_ballroom_dancing_shoes_tango_swing_salsa/images/uploads/green-skirt-II.jpg - I'm a liiiittle bit in love with this skirt. It's super cute and would float all over the place when one twirled.
https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhF6-DjA9E-GTsoB_OwZQcj-1VCQVteEJ0wn-9tXm57zSL4wjN5kHv68-2vPWa5YsaFjE_UDdU9n-YyW-yqXuxgMZ0H2CWgulwN0KjEuMsoExycdojyrtqRaM5k21dQuRLFTuzkHKShfUM6/s400/MossimoGenSuedeFlatAnkleBoots_Black.jpg - I wish these boots were lighter :p I'm rather upset that they aren't. But if one imagines them lighter, one can imagine them being Ariel's flippers, am I right?
http://oceangals.com/shop/images/n3085_necklack_nataulis_shell.jpg - This is very similar to the necklace that Ursula wears that has Ariel's voice trapped inside it, and that's the main reason I chose it. But it's also very pretty.
http://www.srirezeki.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/orange-glass-fish-earrings.jpg - Looky! Flounders! Almost.
So yeah guys. That's my Little Mermaid inspired outfit number one! Look for more coming soon :D

Beauty and the Beast
OHAI GAIZ.
Our fall musical this year is Beauty and the Beast. And I was inspired recently to make a design for a more modern version of Belle's dress in the ballroom scene for a rewrite of BATB I'm making called 'Izzy and the Beast'. Aren't I creative?
So I made my design in my sketchbook (Which will be posted on my deviantART account at some point in time) and decided to Google the things in the sketch I made,which consists of a dress, shoes, a necklace, earrings, a ring, and a hairstyle. The links I Googled can be found here (with "modifications" after each link according to my sketch):
http://www.polyvore.com/gold_yellow_flower_girl_dresses/thing?id=24456500 - Imagine this dress with more of a bubble skirt, strapless, and with a sweet little bit of lace peeking out at the bottom. Ya like? :)
http://www.sharplily.com/accessories/sam-libby-ballet-flats-3499/ - I'm a big fan of flats. I used to have a pair of black patent leather (I think?) ones just like this pair, which is why I think I was so drawn to them. Plus they're super cute.
http://www.uktights.com/product/761/kunert-40-denier-black-opaque-tights - The tights are mostly because I always thought it always looked a little chilly in the part of the movie after the dance between Belle and the Beast where they go out onto the veranda, and the dress I chose above is so much shorter than the gown Belle wears in the film, (Which, might I mention, I'm just the slightest bit in love with :D)
https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEpPzHURl82TIMc6N1sjT7U8cdAM5JoHR0AuWm1DGOoLtPVhvKn7PS1G8xfsIjc07z2y2eawrgVM7StY_7g9jbvV2XM8iKfMsnHC5NQhcsyI-P1OiYNvsULjZYR1YUFwK3FLvvWTnsJz8/s1600/candel+necklace.jpg - This necklace is simply because - Hey! It's a candelabra. Like Lumiere! And come on, who didn't love the candlestick who was the ONLY character in the entire film with a legitamite French accent?
http://www.stylehive.com/bookmark/etsy-spoon-and-fork-earrings-137238 - I chose these earrings to represent one of my favorite songs ever, Be Our Guest. The tune is catchy, the dance is irresistible, and the lyrics are so much FUN. And it's about singing cutlery and dancing food. What could possibly represent it better than spoon and fork earrings?
http://www.etsy.com/listing/37377251/teapot-ring - Lookit that! Mrs. Potts and Chip all rolled into one adorable ring! I adore this. It's so sweet and simple, yet intricate at the same time. Very pretty.
For a hairdo like Belle's in the ballroom scene, I'd go with either curling your hair and pinning a few sections back or a bun that looks messy yet elegant at the same time (like this one: http://www.hdofblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/natural-curly-hair-updos-15.jpg).
Okay guys. Well that's it from me for today. Look out for more outfits inspired by Beauty and the Beast (the movie and the stage show) soon! I'm thinking of doing Belle's opening number outfit next?
Peace out guys :D
