a spell of goodluck

Today i came across a spell of good luck. I walked into booster juice empty handed and walked out with a splended blended matcha monsoon and the lead role for the fall production of my favorite show Pygmalion!! (My Fair Lady without the music) Thats right you are looking at the next Eliza Doolittle, a role that was once played by my personal role model, the best actress to walk the earth, Audrey Hepburn. Ya so thats pretty exciting. I'll keep you updated on the rehearsal process and performance dates. Liz out.

These Are...The Days Of Our Lives.

Anyone else scared to death?? This summer has flown by, the last three years of my life have flown by!! I'm fifteen, highschool starts in roughly 25 days! HIGHSCHOOL! Before we know it that will be gone and I'll be thrown into the REAL WORLD, the real thing not the show (is that even on anymore??)!!! By the way World of Warcraft is ridiculous and a waste of time, just putting that out there. but anyways, is anyone else scared for the future? What if after graduation I never see my bestest buds again?! What would I do, become one of those crazy cat ladies that never leaves her home and is still caring for her little Persian kitten, Muffy, three years after the kitty died???? or what if I decide to go into acting and end up waitressing and still living on the streets of Los Angeles?? Or I go into physio therapy and become so obsessed with my job that I constantly trample on the feelings of those I love???I wanna explores all the way to the(non existent) 4 corners of the earth!! Will I do that? BREATH! DEEP BREATHS! kay, better. Basically what I am trying to say is that my entire future rests on the decisions made by my young, unprepared mind, and it freaks me out a tad.

song you should here

Patricia the Stripper

by Chris De Burgh

Dennis is a menace

With his "anyone for tennis?"

And he'd beseech me to come keep the score.

And maude said, "oh lord, i'm so terribly bored"

I really can't stand it anymore...

I'm going...out to dinner,

With a gorgeous singer,

To a little place i know,

Down by the key.

Her name is patricia,

She calls herself delicia

And the reason isn't

Very hard to see.

She said, god made her a sinner

Just to keep those fat men thinner

As they tumble down in heaps

Before her feet.

They hang around in groups

Like battle weary troops,

One can often see the

Queue right down the street.

Because patricia

Or delicia

Not only is a singer

She also removes all her clothing

For patricia,

Is the best stripper in town...

And with a swing of her hips,

She started to strip

To tremendous applause

She took of her drawers

And with a lick of her lips

She undid all her clips,

Threw it all in the air

And everyone stared

And as the last piece of clothing

Fell to the floor,

The police were banging on the door

On a saturday night,

In 1924

Take it away boys...

Well, patricia was arrested

And everyone detested,

The terrible manner in which

She was exposed

Later on in court

Where everyone thought

A summer's run in jail

Would be proposed..

But the judge said, "patricia,

Or may i say delicia,

The facts of this case lie before me (knock, knock, knock)

Case dismissed... this girl was in her working clothes...

And with a swing of her hips,

She started to strip

To tremendous applause

She took off her drawers

And with a lick of her lips

She undid all her clips,

Threw it all in the air

And everyone stared

And as the last piece of clothing

Fell to the floor,

The police were yelling out for more (more)

On a saturday night,

In 1924

So its been a while

Hello again. To you, beloved blog site, I sincerely apologize. I abandoned you, leaving you stranded in the middle of nowhere with no one to turn to and nothing new to read. A lot has occurred since the 18th of may. But due to my location (Camrose) none of the events were interesting.

At the beginning of this summer I set out with the goal to make every day worth while, to create millions of memories. The kind of memories you look back on and cant stop that warm grin from creeping on to your face. Well its august now, and there are very few of those warm, giggly memories coming to mind. Time passes us by so quickly. Every day millions of opportunities are denied the chance to evolve into something beautiful.
During Artstrek 2006, the theatre camp I recently attended, we explored the well known play Our Town by Thornton Wilder. This play is incredibly moving, I don't suggest you read it at home because it would take a lot of focus and imagination to get through the first act (the beginning is kinda boring), but if you ever get the chance to see it live, DO IT! The play is set in the early 1900's and is narrated by a Stage Manager, the first act shows us daily life in the small town of Grovers Corners. I takes us into the homes of the Webb family and their neighbors the Gibbs family. The second act is about love and marriage, a romance develops and flourishes between young George Gibbs and the girl next door, Emily Webb. The third act is about death. Emily died giving birth at the age of 23. She travels up to the grave yard on a hill, where she chats with the rest of the deceased and watches her own funeral take place right before her eyes. Than she is given the opportunity to live a day in her life over again, her 12th birthday. Once she does this she realizes how terrible we humans are, how much we take for granted. - that is the basic story line. Simon Stimson, the town drunk, tells Emily this epic line when she returns from her second 12th birthday, its my favorite line in the whole show - "Yes. Now you know. Now you know: that's what it was to be alive . To move about in a cloud of ignorance; to go up and down, trampling on the feelings of those - of those about you. To spend and waste time as though you had a million years. To be always at the mercy of one self-centered passion, or another. Now you know - that's the "happy" existence you wanted to go back to. Ignorance and blindness!"- and that pretty much sums up the message I am trying to deliver. In the words of the beloved Belinda (oh, how I'll miss her)- SEIZE THE DAY! Liz out.
