Not too long ago my friend Distopia and I made ourselves a "post-pact" where we would submit one piece every week whether we found it decent or not. It lasted for a couple of weeks and I will admit that I believe some of my finest and more mature work came from that pact. But again, DA has been abandoned.

I have recently found out that DA has an application on Facebook and I thought this would be a good way to get new people (who I know) to see what I have done in the past 3ish years (Now that I have typed that it doesn't sound like such a great thing...)

It is safe to say that no one is likely to read this, esp all my old DA friends who I came to rely on for honest critiques. But if some of you are here still here wondering around, contimplating when anime will finally go out of style, I wanted you to know that I'm back....somewhat.

But anyway, Myspace was my summer thing and hopefully with the new season slowly beginning DA will flourish with new pieces. They've remodeled, why can't I. I sense that the fall and winter will be much more creative then this summer has been.

I encourage all of you have been slacking or lacking creativity to see this new change of season as an opportunity for new vibes to inspire you.

When the earth was still flat,
And the clouds made of fire,
And mountains stretched up to the sky,
Sometimes higher,
Folks roamed the earth
Like big rolling kegs.
They had two sets of arms.
They had two sets of legs.
They had two faces peering
Out of one giant head
So they could watch all around them
As they talked; while they read.
And they never knew nothing of love.
It was before the origin of love.

The origin of love

And there were three sexes then,
One that looked like two men
Glued up back to back,
Called the children of the sun.
And similar in shape and girth
Were the children of the earth.
They looked like two girls
Rolled up in one.
And the children of the moon
Were like a fork shoved on a spoon.
They were part sun, part earth
Part daughter, part son.

The origin of love

Now the gods grew quite scared
Of our strength and defiance
And Thor said,
"I'm gonna kill them all
With my hammer,
Like I killed the giants."
And Zeus said, "No,
You better let me
Use my lightening, like scissors,
Like I cut the legs off the whales
And dinosaurs into lizards."
Then he grabbed up some bolts
And he let out a laugh,
Said, "I'll split them right down the middle.
Gonna cut them right up in half."
And then storm clouds gathered above
Into great balls of fire

And then fire shot down
From the sky in bolts
Like shining blades
Of a knife.
And it ripped
Right through the flesh
Of the children of the sun
And the moon
And the earth.
And some Indian god
Sewed the wound up into a hole,
Pulled it round to our belly
To remind us of the price we pay.
And Osiris and the gods of the Nile
Gathered up a big storm
To blow a hurricane,
To scatter us away,
In a flood of wind and rain,
And a sea of tidal waves,
To wash us all away,
And if we don't behave
They'll cut us down again
And we'll be hopping round on one foot
And looking through one eye.

Last time I saw you
We had just split in two.
You were looking at me.
I was looking at you.
You had a way so familiar,
But I could not recognize,
Cause you had blood on your face;
I had blood in my eyes.
But I could swear by your expression
That the pain down in your soul
Was the same as the one down in mine.
That's the pain,
Cuts a straight line
Down through the heart;
We called it love.
So we wrapped our arms around each other,
Trying to shove ourselves back together.
We were making love,
Making love.
It was a cold dark evening,
Such a long time ago,
When by the mighty hand of Jove,
It was the sad story
How we became
Lonely two-legged creatures,
It's the story of
The origin of love.
That's the origin of love.

-Hedwig and the Angry Inch

You thought I was a movie junkie before??? Look out! ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/8130539/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/8130539/ Sat, 11 Mar 2006 12:03:35 PST
Spring break is finally here. I am so happy. I get nine SPLENDID days away from all my douche bag teachers, crowded hall ways, horrible cafeteria food, showering daily, and all that shit.

Right at this very moment, Sarah is sleeping and I'm on her computer. I am spending the weekend with her and my brother in Commerce. I recently finished reading over my brother's new web site journal. It's so funny and creative, when it is up and running, you're all going to hear about it... I'm going to make sure of it.

Sarah and I just finished watching "Cry Baby", oh holy shit.... it was so retarded. Hoakiness was coming out of it's ass. I think that it was meant to be that way, because there is no way that so many people read that script and said, "wow, that's some great writing." No... it couldn't have happened. Johnny Depp was so weird in this, some of the facial expressions were priceless.

Usually, my spring breaks mostly consist of lying around the house not doing a damn thing, but now that I have a license and all, it'll make getting together with friends much easier.

**** Oh some pretty groovyness that must be told in story form as though I was actually talking to you.

One day, I was sitting at my computer and I get an email back from a teacher that is directing a play saying, "Are you still interested in helping out" and I was like "Hell ya", well you know, without the "hell" part. Anyway, I'm all excited and happy about it all. I go to school the next day and then I think to myself, "How am I going to get to rehearsals on time right after school, I don't have a parking pass?!?"



......Then like a sign, the announcements come on and I hear a woman say "Parking passes are coming back on sale. There are only 20 spots left, and they will be on sale Friday at 8am" ..... Holy Crap, I thought to myself. All I needed was proof of insurance and my licence. One problem, it was Thursday and my licence hadn't come in the mail yet. I became discouraged, I didn't want to come to rehearsals late everyday, that wouldn't look very professional.
I got off the bus, and got the mail. A letter for me. Wow, that never happens. "Department of Public Safety" What the fuck is that. I open it, and BOOM my driver's licence. I was so amazingly happy. The next day I went to school really early was one of the first ones in line and got my parking pass.
Never again this year, will I have to ride the god forsaken bus to and from school! I am so freaking happy.


The End.

Okay, that was my story. But I am so happy. Now all I need to do is bring up my grades and my life would be just peachy keen. ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/8057904/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/8057904/ Fri, 03 Mar 2006 16:14:32 PST [link] ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/8048339/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/8048339/ Thu, 02 Mar 2006 15:39:33 PST

*When you are having a good ole' time with your friends and you make some kick ass queso, it is very important to TURN OFF THE CROCK-POT that is keeping it warm.

*When you go to bed at 2:00, and while you're sleeping with your man, woman or dog... your house is slowly filling with the horriable odor of burning cheese. One wif of that in the morning and you'll want to clear the room. No matter how much Glade "glistening snow" air freshener you spray, it will not help. It is not one of my favourite morning calls, when I have to soak the crock-pot and scrap off the black crusted "used to be" cheese, it was disgusting

So please, make sure you don't get too wrapped up in creating naughty new lyrics to Aladin songs that you forget to turn off your cheese warmers... ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/7783440/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/7783440/ Thu, 02 Feb 2006 17:19:48 PST
We were watching a Garbage music video, and I noticed how wicked cool Shirley Manson's outfit was, and how awesome the music itself was Granted, I didn't get to experience the 90's like some people did... I was only about 7 years old. But I began to realize that today's fashion SUCKS!!!! Everything is simple. Simple this, simple that. Whatever happened to "WOW!"? Colors were electric, bold and vibrant... now it's all pastels and beige. And what the fuck is with the layering of t-shirts???? People are wearing more of skin toned make-up that practically has NOTHING outstanding about it, and if you wear something bold and WOW, you are told "It's too much, it looks whorish." That's because now everything is BORING!!!! Some of the music now is becoming bland, and the music videos are become bland and it's all so disappointing.

I looked at Sarah's old high-school photos, and it does all look more creative and fun. I told Sarah that when enough money is gathered, I am going to go with her and get her a kick ass 90's outfit. One that is outstanding, and vibrant. Stockings with combat boots and one of those sleek one piece skirts. She'll look fantastic in something like that. (not that she doesn't always look fantastic)

Looking back at some stuff, I feel like I missed out and it's not fare! When will things be more GRRRR and bold again? ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/7783432/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/7783432/ Thu, 02 Feb 2006 17:19:05 PST ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/7649499/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/7649499/ Thu, 19 Jan 2006 15:02:34 PST
So I walk into class and we begin.... No, it wasn't the wrong clothing, I just suck. Mostly everyone in that class has either been in the class for first semester, or has had prior dance experience... I've done neither. But that's supose to be okay, its a dance CLASS, the whole point was to learn. But boy am awful! I mean, wow. Granted, I'm not the only one, but I wonder: Can two left feet dance? I was messing up on steps and fumbling all over the place. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the class, and I look forward to it and all, and I really hope to learn how to dance, but it's going to be a long journey until I get there. Damn, I can't even leap correctly.

Oh well, I'll get the hang of it.

Practice, practice, practice ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/7577717/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/7577717/ Wed, 11 Jan 2006 19:49:03 PST
But this is a problem I have been suffering with for a while. Time is moving TOO SLOW! Everyone is always saying that "time flies when you're having fun", and "this year is moving by so quickly" Which is true, this school year is cruising through, but at the same time- the days seem longer, the weeks seem like months.

It's not as though I don't do anything to pass the time, I do... I'm always going somewhere, doing something...but still. It's that weird "tear in the universe" feeling that time is moving quickly before my eyes, but at the same time... there seems to be a stall.


Maybe it's a sign of the Apocalypse ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/7403401/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/7403401/ Sat, 24 Dec 2005 13:13:19 PST These weren't just any cows, these were very vocal cows We got out of the car to look at them, and they all came toward us. There must have been 20 cows; all mooing, it was really cute and funny. Then these three donkeys came to us, this one really big and grey who was really sweet. They were really friendly and let us pet them and scratch their noses and all that jazz I got all attached and named it Sam. I was going to name him after the dude in Pinocchio that was at the place for little boys that turned into a donkey, but I couldn't remember his name... it could have been Sam, I don't know... anyway, I named him... I went and visited him later, he's just so sweet So yeah, my new buddy is an ass... what can I say? ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/7403373/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/7403373/ Sat, 24 Dec 2005 13:11:09 PST ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/7210762/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/7210762/ Sat, 03 Dec 2005 09:49:01 PST
Sarah came and picked me up from school and we went to my house and made candy. It was the simplest candy to make, white chocolate peppermint bark. It was great fun to make and we were damn proud of our selves when it was done. While we made our Christmas candy, we watched a Muppet's Christmas Carol. I love that movie. We acted like such dorks, making hand puppets to sing along to the songs.

Then Julie came over later that night and we talked a bunch and then watched The Little Mermaid. Sarah and I sat front and center of the TV screen and sang (horribly, I might add) to all of those songs, and mumbling the parts we didn't know. We cracked jokes throughout the whole thing, but it was awesome fun. I love that movie.

We acted like complete losers, and never had better fun doing it. I like being a loser with you guys ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/7100848/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/7100848/ Sun, 20 Nov 2005 21:51:26 PST ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/6527490/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/6527490/ Sat, 17 Sep 2005 09:38:28 PDT ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/6451431/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/6451431/ Thu, 08 Sep 2005 15:11:45 PDT

~My Grandmother is home, but on oxygen, she's doing much better, and I'm leaving tomorrow to go visit her for the weekend.

~My purse was returned to me, the wallet was missing, but oh well, there was only like $10 in there anyway, and it would have cost about $40 to replace everything. So take the money, I don't care. I'm just really happy because the driving permit was still in there and that was what I really wanted back.

~I am doing better in AP History, I don't know whether I am passing or not, but I did well on a test and on a quiz; it's a good start in the right direction.

-------------------------------------------------------

So that's the update from the last journal entry.

~ I think that in about a week or two, I am going to be filming another little short film It's been a while since I have done something; It's mainly just going to be for fun, a chance to hang out with friends.

~I'm getting comfortable with the high-school. I no longer feel like I'm always lost. The funny part of it all is that the longer I'm there, the smaller the school seems to be, considering the fact that when I first walked in, it seemed like it could swallow me whole.

So things are going much better now, with help by many ppl, thanks so much A lot of weight has been lifted off my shoulders and I feel much more comfortable in my surroundings, and my negative level has gone down.

OOOOH! before I forget, I have seen Kung-Fu that I like!!! I know!, even I never thought it could happen. I saw the coolest fucking movie with Sarah, and I didn't even watch it all, I didn't really get to the GOOD part, but omg, it was so kick-ass!!! ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/6451412/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/6451412/ Thu, 08 Sep 2005 15:10:00 PDT ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/6379393/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/6379393/ Wed, 31 Aug 2005 14:52:27 PDT
~I failed my first test in AP History, yeah, I know that doesn't sound so bad, but it's just not what I needed today.
~Also, my purse got jacked at lunch today. It was a really pretty little black purse that my other grand-mother gave me for my birthday last year. It had my make-up, my money, and my NEW driving permit inside. So loaded on top of everything else, that just really made me unhappy.

Between my grand-mother's troubles and school being hard and full of purse jackers, I don't even have the engery to throw something across the room, or to scream and yell like I usually do when I'm feeling angry. I feel so drained. It's only Wedsday, and this was not a good way to start my week. ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/6286692/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/6286692/ Sun, 21 Aug 2005 09:45:09 PDT I'm headed off to the high school tomorrow; headed to the BIG fucking high school. I don't want to have to wake up early, do my hair and put on make up every day just to get it all smudged and messy when PE comes around... Also, there are a number of ppl that I never want to see again, and by my luck, there they'll be, right there in my class. As most of you know, Sarah is in Mexico on vacation, so I will have no one to call after school and bitch to, and have to compare with her first day. I'll manage.

~Yesterday a friend of mine from The Hobbit came over and we watched Donnie Darko (he had NEVER seen it) and The Rocky Horror Picture Show, it's tradition . Actually, he is the only guy I know that will watch it. Every other guy I try to get to watch it, just refuses and picks something else out to watch, so kudos to him. It was a lot of fun, a normal Saturday for me, but nice to share it with someone you don't see everyday(no offense to those I see everyday, I love you guys too ).

~Driving is going really well by the way. I haven't wrapped the car around a pole yet, so YaY for me!

~But it's like I said before, hopefully with the new school year starting, I'll get my writing inspiration back, since it has been all summer since I have written something worth posting on DA. ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/6286661/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/6286661/ Sun, 21 Aug 2005 09:40:56 PDT ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/6242369/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/6242369/ Tue, 16 Aug 2005 10:39:59 PDT I am so happy. I've waited 8 years for this.... oh wow. But I will say that I have been waiting for this for so long, I'm not as enthused as I thought I would be, I think I've seen so many stupid teen movies that I don't have that beaming light shinning down on the key as I hold them in my hand. Also, (not that I would ever get one) I don't have "new car fever". I just want something to get me to where I need to go. I have my first drive time on Saturday with my great bud Victoria, so we'll threaten each others lives: threats that are under toned with love of course. Then we are going to hand out. I'm going to be so happy that when I want to go somewhere, even somewhere like Blockbuster or Starbucks or Target, I won't have to beg my mom to take me. I'm glad the classes are over and done with. 3 weeks was a long time, but in exchange for my time I got to watch those horrible, yet enjoyable corny films, such as: "Please God, I'm only 17" So it was worth it. But YAY! I'm happy ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/6207576/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/6207576/ Fri, 12 Aug 2005 12:57:48 PDT

I haven't been able to write ANYTHING lately; even my diary is lacking interest. All of my deviations have been photographs, and every time I try to write a poem, it always sucks (not saying that my poems before were of any genius, but these are awful). I guess it's to be expected though, all off my best work comes in the middle of class or something, so hopefully when school starts, I'll have all the inspiration coming back to me. I just wish I wasn't in such a loss for words.

~We saw Shear Madness, which; next to Tommy wasn't as well done visually but I was smiling and laughing the whole time. It was a "whodunit" but the audience got to play along, you could ask questions and they had to think of answers on the spot and you could shout out with things go wrong; it was really awesome. I went mad at the gift shop, but with all the things I got, only payed $25. It was really cool. Then we went and ate at the cheesecake factory.

Tomorrow's my last day. We're just museum hopping and gift shopping. ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/6152719/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/6152719/ Sat, 06 Aug 2005 19:21:17 PDT
~We went shopping at this really nice mall. My cousin wanted to buy me some cloths as a early birthday present. Granted, I'm not really into the whole "expensive cloths" thing, because we would stroll across this shirt that was $70 that I could get at Target for $10.... That's why I shop at the WONDERFUL target. Also, not to mention that nice business like clothing that run by numbers and not letters, don't fit me too well; so shopping at higher fashion doesn't pass over too well for me. But I did get two tops and a gift for a friend.

~When we got back, we went to a friend's party- party is a bit of an understatement; it was just more like a get together. Apparently someone was engaged and moving to Australia or something. Anyway, it was really weird being with all these people that I didn't know AT ALL; so I mainly just sat on the couch listening to other people talk. I was a little uncomfortable, but I usually am in those situations. Pat had a good time though, they're her friends and that's all that mattered. But listening to all these people talk about their work and interests makes me want to enjoy my teen years and my youth; and to not be in such a rush to grow out of it.

See you tomorrow! ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/6145051/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/6145051/ Fri, 05 Aug 2005 20:26:01 PDT
~After the 2 hour drive back to DC, we met up with Pat's son, Ted; whom I had met only once before about ten years ago. We had a really nice dinner and went site seeing. He's and really nice and cool guy. I saw the Korean memorial and the WW2 memorial and took some groovy shots of it.

Today was mostly travel, but it was a lot of fun. ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/6134762/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/6134762/ Thu, 04 Aug 2005 17:46:22 PDT
I'm in DC visiting my second cousin. I had never really met her before (once, but I was really little) she's really great and I'm having an awesome time! I always bitch and complain about how much I dislike Texas. Texas is to me a place that visiting a relative would be nice, but you don't want to live there. So I told my mom I would let her know if the grass was greener on the other side, and IT IS!!! DC is so different. The places are nicer, fast food is hard to find and they have more places to fit more cultures. They do more with art galleries and theatre. Granted I don't go into Dallas often, if I did I would probably take back my last couple of sentances. But now I do feel like a hick because I find myself thinking, "I could go for a whataburger right now" I've only been here for a day and a half and we have done so much.

*The day I arrived, we went out to dinner and went to a theatre and saw The Who's:Tommy opera. It was AMAZING! I can't stress enough how spectacular this show was!!! WOW, I mean WOW! The singing was amazing and so powerful and the story was done well, and they had fog machines and strobe lights; and the whole style was just "Holy shit!" I was an experience to remember, and I stole a pen with the theatre name on it, as a small memento.

*Today we went to Arlington and did the tour of the unknown soldier. I saw the "changing of the guards" which was nifterz. I saw one of the many endless fields of the endless white graves that just broke my heart. I'll tell you what's weird though, when 9/11 happened it was all so surreal that when you saw the pentagon on TV and the accident, it was like one of those things you thought you would never see and would only ever see it on television. We pass by it every day! And it's right next to the street, it's not set aside anywhere or blocked off, it is only feet away from a major highway. Also we pass by the George Bush Center of Intelligence (a.k.a Sylvan Learning center haha) and all cell phone get cut off when you pass through it, cleaver...


See you next time with "A horse of a different color part II" ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/5985522/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/5985522/ Wed, 20 Jul 2005 10:11:04 PDT It'll run for 5 days 9am-11am. When I walked in, I heard the classroom next to me and I could hear one of those car-crash videos playing with a woman crying and screaming "Oh my God! Oh my God!" I'm to be starting this. I think it'll be a lot of fun, and it's something I have been waiting forever to do. I've always wanted to drive, and now I will get to (with an adult next to me for the next 6 months) but the wait WILL be worth it. Why, you ask; well it's not just for the "coming of age" experience, or the ability to drive anywhere with out having to ask a parent to tote me around. No, its not any of those things ; it's so my friend will stop having to always be the one to pick me up, and drive to my house, and almost everytime I get into her car say, "So when do you start Driver's Ed?" Well Sarah, I start on monday. It's cool, I kept my promise, now you can do your happy dance .......But soon, you'll be on the passenger side... ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/5966758/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/5966758/ Mon, 18 Jul 2005 09:33:46 PDT It was really funny, but the first one had more wit, you know the kind of humor that only adults catch, that kids catch when they grow up and it shocks the hell out of them... We got there a little late, so we sat on the front row. To be perfectly honest, I think that sitting on the front row of the Imax is the only way to watch a Burton film. You get that feeling you're inside his head, and it's kinda creepy. And Willy Wonka has a zit on his chin that was just bugging us the entire time.

~I also saw War of the Worlds. Meh, I don't know really what to say... It was good, I mean I really liked it. But there isn't much of an after thought about it. My mom asked me what it was like and I said,"Intence at times, some of those moments where you jump from shock, but then you look around the theatre to see if anyone saw you spaz out. It was good." The one thing I was dissapointed in though, which ppl will probably disagree with me is the aliens. All you hear is about these really cool aliens, and how it's all going to be a surprise because the trailer wouldn't show you anything, but I saw them and just exhailed with no amazement at all. They were mediocore. As much as Spielberg loves aliens, and has made many kinds of them (and put them in some films where they just DIDN'T belong) these were a let down. When watching it I really liked it, and I recomend it, but I wouldn't see it twice, or let's put it this way, I wouldn't pay for it twice ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/5851311/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/5851311/ Tue, 05 Jul 2005 21:01:30 PDT

~Sarah and I went to Shakespear in the Park, it was supose to A Winter's Tale, but instead they stuck us with Richard III... I don't know if I'm completely stupid (and if that's the case, I'm not alone, because Sarah was as baffled as I was) but that was the most confusing, backwards play I've seen in a long time....ever even. It wasn't that I didn't understand what was being said, because I understand Shakespear's language very well, but because of the fact that it was so hard to keep up, with regarding who was whom, we found it very dissapointing and left during intermission. We plan to go again in a week or two to see the play we actually intended to see. ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/5770634/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/5770634/ Mon, 27 Jun 2005 10:30:51 PDT And of course they are going to put me under. See I'm not really worried about the pulling part hurting; what I'm most afraid of is, what if I say something really stupid or inappropraite(sp) how embarrasing would that be??? Because they are putting me under, they said I'm going to be a little for a couple of days. And that'll just give my friends more material, like they really need that....

I don't want to go.... I like my jaw the way it is... Also I've never been put under before and I'm hesitent of it since I don't know what it's going to be like....

My day consists of going to the gym, watching movies for most of my day ,hanging out with friends when available (to most likely watch yet, another movie) and then going to play practice. Just reading that Xanga made me feel that I am full of utter laziness. And here I was thinking,"Hey, I'm working out everyday, I do some chores, watch a flick and go to rehersals...Not bad, not bad at all." Well that idea just went down the shitter.
But it's not all jealousy, but it makes me want to do something really cool to up her one; so okay, it is all jealousy, don't judge me .... ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/5629036/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/5629036/ Sun, 12 Jun 2005 16:41:19 PDT ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/5569681/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/5569681/ Mon, 06 Jun 2005 11:49:49 PDT But, what urks me is that they are the kind of people who wake up at 6am naturally. So here I am, staying up late, cause I can't sleep well when not in my own bed, and when I do finally conk out, I'm awaken at 7am for an extremely early breakfast. I even set my watch alarm to wake me up at nine, so I wouldn't sleep in too late, but I havn't had much of a need for it. Today for example (monday) I woke up, against my will at 7, had a very fast breakfast at 7:10, then went fishing with my Grandpa. I like the lake, I like boats, I even like fishing, well, sorta. But I DO NOT like taking the hook out of the fish, or touching the fish.... okay, I'm not a complete sissy (shut up Sarah) but fish are icky and I don't like to touch them I like the out doors, but I'm a "stay inside" person when it has reached above 90 degrees

I look forward to getting home and going to bed in my own comfy bed and sleeping to what ever time I feel like. But summer's a blast whatever time you have to wake up in the morning.

Schools out! No more suck ass Algebra!!! ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/5533484/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/5533484/ Thu, 02 Jun 2005 15:10:57 PDT
School is out for the summer!!! WOO HOO! I am so happy, but some what sad. I went to Luigies with about 20 people It was fun, and all. The only thing that turned out shitty was the fact that I lost my purse that had EVERYTHING in it. So that really screwed over my day.

I got a 100 on my bio exam, which made me super proud.
I got a 95 on my health, which really means nothing to me at all.
I havn't gotten anymore grade yet, still waiting for my algebra to pop round.

I'm going to miss so many people... I hugged so many, my friend called me a "hug whore", which is true, but I don't need it thrown in my face I hugged friends, and some odder people... kind of the "Hey dude, what the hell?"
Oh well, times change, must move on... My friend recomends that I assume that they are "dead to me" which seems rude and morbid, but what works, works (just kidding).... not that i would actually believe they're dead. Esspecailly if I saw them on the street, I wouldn't point and say "hey, didn't you die?" But you catch my drift, hopefully. But some I will make sure to keep in close touch with.

Schools out! ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/5478510/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/5478510/ Fri, 27 May 2005 16:33:23 PDT All I have left is 3 days of exams. You know what's really weird though, I hated school until it was almost over. But there were a few classes I really liked and will really miss.

Theatre 1A: Was SO much fun, almost as much fun as creative writing, but that ended last semester. It was an outlet!!!! I have so many friends in my theatre class, and they are all going to a different highschool as me. It makes me SO sad! All I have left is the exam in the class, and that's it...

Speech: I know you're wondering "Why would someone miss her speech class?!?!" But the people were really fun, and I did some kick ass speeches in that class.....

French 1: well, sorta kinda...

So many faces I will try to never forget... Really nice people Almost like family, and lets not forget the my new candidates for my hit-list ... where would I be with out them... I live to knock them off one day. ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/5413507/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/5413507/ Fri, 20 May 2005 16:03:57 PDT
A while ago he told me that he was moving back over the summer and was going to finish up school in Texas; but his plans have changed. He is going to visit over the summer and go back to FAR away, finish school there and then do whatever, most likely college or something. I was so excited to know he was coming back and staying, and now I'm sad that he's going BACK and staying. I'll see him maybe once when he visits... then never again, and that makes me really sad . No friendships last forever, and they usually hurt when they end, but this one's gonna hurt like a mother fucker.

I've ranted on about this to all my friends (it still buggs me that much) and another friend who moved away has been really nice to take it all and put up with it without rolling her eyes (even though we talk online and I can't see her eyes, I know she's not, or I hope.) she strolls through this DA every now and then and I wanted to say "Thanks" It's not easy to talk to people about just anything and I feel like I can tell you anything. Even though you're so far away, you still listen and seem to care as much as you did when you were here, you're wonderful with advice and I miss you tons! Next time you come to rockwall, call me up!

~On a happier note, I'm involved in another play, this time it's for the local theatre... we're doing the Hobbit! I am SO excited!!! We had our first rehersal Weds. and it was so much fun! ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/5366098/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/5366098/ Sun, 15 May 2005 16:11:23 PDT click on "previous journal entries" and look for my last one, that's the one I wanted you all to read... But I needed to update today. (By the way, I will be posting more pics and poety soon, I promise)

~Sarah and I went to the play on Friday. It was VERY good. I recieved much more then what I was expecting out of it. The acting was done very well, the actor who played Nick Bottom stole our hearts , we thought he was so cool and seemed so happy while doing it. Helena was still my favorite character. Poor thing, she looked SO nervous; but then again it was opening night, but her pink hosed legs were shaking so badly we were afraid she was going to trip on her heels.
We also agreed that Puck was excellent. He had much more color and enthusiasim then the other characters. All in all, he stole the show with his bounciness and wide eyes.
The only thing we disagreed on was Titania's fairies. They were the most 80's of them all. I adored them and thought they were kick ass , but Sarah thought they were too much. Oh well, can't agree on everything. I told my friend that if it was good I would let her know and if she wanted to go, I would go with her. And this will be one play I wouldn't mind spending $10 to see again. ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/5340982/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/5340982/ Thu, 12 May 2005 17:23:29 PDT click on "previous journal entries" and look for my last one, that's the one I wanted you all to read...

~My friend Sarah and I are going to see A Midsummer Night's Dream tomorrow night (friday). I have to see it for a play report I'm doing for my theatre class. I'm really looking forward to it, concidering that this week has gone by really slowly, and I need some fun. We're going to dress up and have a good ol' "Sara/h" time , like we usually do. I'm a little worried because the play is set in the 80's, but I am willing to give it a try.

~Then for the rest of the weekend I'll probably just hang out... In two weeks, I'm getting together with friends and we're going to have a Disney Movie Marathon, with all the classics, not the new cappy shit... that's being put off until "Disney Sequal Night"

We had three great turn outs. I had friends show up every night and they followed my instructions which were: Whenever the curtains move, or when props appear or dissapear, or the set changes, or when you hear a girl swear very loudly because she broke another toe; you nudge the person to your right and say, "I know her." They did a lovely job of it; I couldn't have been prouder. And they all seemed to enjoy the show.

I will say that I have not worked with better people before, and I am glad to know that there is another race of men, and they are theater guys, who are the sweetest, friendliest, most fun people out there. It was a cast of 40 people, and we all got along great. I had them all sign my program and I took pictures of them in costume, which I will be posting on here shortly. I am going to miss seeing them every night from 4-7pm ... But hopefully we'll see each other more and more throughout the normal school day.

Last night ( after the last showing ) we had a cast party and the hosts went all out, we each got an award with our names on it and were complimented by the director. I know it sounds campy, but it was nice to hear.

Now, as most of you know, I am not the biggest people person; half of the time I can't stand too many of them at one time, but I mean this sincerely; if you have the chance to be in a stage production (doesn't matter if you're acting, crew, or tech) JOIN! You won't forget it, it was a blast, and I can't wait to do it again. ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/4840916/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/4840916/ Thu, 17 Mar 2005 20:13:16 PST

With so many things running through my mind, I am trying to let go of past commitments; move on from things and start new beginnings.
One thing I am trying to let go is my fear of change. I have only three years left of highschool, then there will be college, it's all so intimidating. Mostly I am really scared of not making it. What if I go out there and try to make films, but it doesn't work out. What if I end up in a cubical? That is the one thing I told myself I wouldn't do. But what if filmmaking is merely a dream; a birthday wish and it never happends. You only live once and this is what I really want to do.
I don't want it for the fame, but for being able to say "I created this!" Unfortunately, Sometimes having all heart isn't enough, and that scares me. I don't want to fail myself, but then again, I don't want to aim low and achieve: work for that cubical and pretend that was all I wanted out of life. That's really not the path I want to go down, the path full of regrets.

I know I'm over thinking this right now, but I guess we all think about these things, especially when we're lying in our beds. ]]> ~Avadraste http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/4592601/ http://Avadraste.deviantart.com/journal/4592601/ Tue, 15 Feb 2005 19:13:36 PST (A Murder mystery story with infedelity and a hint of romance...can't really explain the story, it would give too much away.)
Well, this movie wasn't exactly what I was expecting, but it was pretty enjoyable. As most people know, this film was rated NC-17, but they cut out a scene to make it R, which is fine and dandy, but the scene they cut out was in the special featers, so if you rent the DVD, watching the scene defeats the purpose of rating it R. I am coming to find that Ewan McGregor is not a very shy man... Again, he decides to show us his "Manhood", for lack of a better term... it was a bit surprising,but then again, there was quite a bit of nudity, the majority of it was done in a some what tasteful manner. I will say that it took forever for this movie to get interesting, but the acting was done well by all the cast, and I did like the story. I did find it hard though, to figure out when the present day was, and when the flashbacks took place, I was constantly asking my self,"So has such in such happened yet, is he still doing this?" and so on. I read the Scotsman.com and they praise this movie, think it's one of the greatest, I don't agree, but the Scots are proud of the movies they make. This is one of Ewan's better acted roles, but nothing compared to Trainspotting, dispite was others may say. But I warn you now, this maybe rated R, but it is still very adult, and the scene they cut out, wasn't even the worse scene in my opinion. It took a lot of guts for Ewan McGregor to portray this role, and I think he did it pretty well. But I'm not going to say wether you should rent it or not, it's not my place. But sex wise, it's not as bad as some, but worse then others.

1/3/05 "Wilbur(Wants to kill himself)"-Jamie Sives, Adrian Rawlins, Shirley Henderson W&D by:Lone Scherfig(A man named Wilbur makes continuous attempts to kill himself, but when his family begins to really need his help, he slows down, not to a complete halt, but he decides that he'll hold suicide off for another day.) My first thing to say is, WATCH THIS MOVIE ALONE. I began watching this film with a friend, and it was all fine and dandy, but is seemed to run slow, my friend went home and I continued to watch it. It seemed to have changed, now wether that change was an actual change in story, or wether it was the short break I took then the clutching to my pillow in solitude that seemed to make the film much more enjoyable, I can't tell, but I have a feeling it was the second one... I would not say that this movie was uplifting (like most critics seemed to think) but I really enjoyed it. There were characters I hated, and characters I loved. And most (not all) of the acting was really great when the story called for high emotion. The only complant that I have is that it did run slow at times and it did drag out, and I wish they kept the movie running in a faster pace. I waited months for this film to come out, and it finally has. Whenever you are down, watch this film... it wont make you happy or make you forget about your problems, but it will have you relate to it (in some degree) and say "I know exactly how you feel!" and then you will squeeze your pillow some more. Maybe I did not get the full effect of this film because I was not in the right mood (mainly because I was so thrilled to have actually rented it...) but I feel as though I recieved the message, and when I am completely down in the dumps, I will watch it again, and possibly write another review, from the depressed point of view, and see if it has changed anything. A-

1/1/05 "American Splendor"-Paul Giamatti, Hope Davis, Harvey Pekar W&D by:Robert Pulcini (The life story of american comic book writer Harvey Pekar. The story of a gloomy, down in the dumps guy who collects comic books and decides to make a comic book that tells the truth about life, a truth that isn't sugar coated. He used his friends as characters and his wife. With all his depressing things going on in his life, he helped create on of America's most beloved comic books.) This movie is the definition of "bittersweet". This man could not see the bright side of any situation; but he was loved by so many people, and he had a wife he loved and who loved him back, but nothing seemed to really make him happy. Films like this tend to be really depressing and tiering to watch, but there were these snipets of lovingness that he shared with his wife that really showed that he was human.
This film was filmed in a very odd way. it showed actual footage of Harvey Pekar in the 70's and 80's on talk shows, and you had the man who was acting as Harvey Pekar, and then you saw the actual Harvey Pekar talking about the making the movie that you are watching. He would make side notes and you would see his actual wife, his actual friends standing next to the actors and actresses who were playing his wife and his friends. Granted, this effect took away the story element of the film a little bit, but then at the same time, it added a unique element of realness that you don't usually get from bio pics; and that is what made it as great as it was. When this ended, I was pleased, and in some way inspired by some of the risks Harvey Pekar took (which wasn't many though). I would recomend this film to people looking for something different to watch, but even if you know the jist, I think you will still be pleasently surprised. A

12/26/04 "God is Great, i am not"-Audrey Tautou, Edouard Baer, Julie Depardieu

Although her life appears to be full, she is convinced something is missing, and sets out on a mission to inject a bit of spirituality into her life, donning a bindi and dabbling with Buddha. Along the way, she meets François (Edouard Baer), a veterinarian and non-practicing Jew. She becomes angry with him about not being devoted to spirituality and tries to inspire him by becoming Jewish herseslf.) This film seemed to be a giant emotional teeter-totter with the "I love you, I hate you"scenario;it does get annoying and rather tiering from time to time. Audrey Tautou's character is not as adorable as it is in "Amelie" and "Happenstance"; here, she is pretty bitchy. But this film does have its sweet and touching moments.

10/20/04 "Frida"-Salma Hayek, Alfred Molina, Geoffrey Rush Directed By:Julie Taymor (The story of Frida Kahlo's life. A film about her art, love, injuries, and how she coped with life) This film was very well done. It's the only artist film about art that I have ever seen. Alot of the animation and cinematography was wonderful. Salma Hayek did a wonderful job at protraying Frida Kahlo. Alfred Molina also gave a surprising performence. The neat thing is that, there're tons of big name actors playing five second roles.
There were times when Salma Hayek would get injured ( which her character often did ) and I swear you could feel her pain. While watching, you think " How could some one get over all this and still be optimistic about life and her work ". Well she wasn't very enthused about life, but she did try to live it out to the fullest.
This film also showed the paintings of Frida and it worked them into the story ( not just through the story line of course ) but they took the image and animated it to fit the feelings of the moment and what was going on. It was beautifully done. If you love art, and/or artistic movies, you'll love this. A+

10/17/04 "Scotland,PA"-James LeGros, Maura Tierney, Christopher Walken W& D:Billy Morrissette ( A strange and funny take of William Shakespear's "McBeth") This film was actually a very happy surprise. When I rented it I had no idea of what to expect. All I saw was a box cover with a spatula with a trickle of blood running down it. When watching the opening credits I saw that it said "Story by: William Shakespear" My friend and I became worried. But then we started noticing the little things figured out that it was a take off of McBeth.
The characters were done very well in my opinion. I've never read the play, but I know the story line and plot. The Fates were extreamly funny. Over all casting was done very well.
This was a very odd but funny film. It was the little things that made you laugh. There were some really weird things that made you scrunch your eyebrows and wonder "What the-?" But it was highly enjoyable and rather adorable. It wasn't slap-stick, but it also wasn't "humor for the thinking man" so everyone can enjoy it. It premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in 2001
I had never heard of this film, I have only seen it in the video stores. But I highly recomend that pick it up sometime, it'll brighten up your afternoon. A

9/5/04 "Charms for the Easy Life"- Gena Rowlands, Mimi Rogers, Susan May Pratt Directed by:Joan Micklin Silver( A woman saves a mans life and he gives her a charm and tells her that it will give her an easy life. She grows and owns a herbal medical shop. You see her raise her daughter and granddaughter and watch them grow) This was either a HBO or Showtime film. So basicly made-for-TV. It wasn't bad. Pretty enjoyable. It was far different then what I thought it was going to be like. I was expectng much more of a film about the changing of a womans life because of the charm,when in fact, the movie had nothing to do with the charm at all. It was in the begining, and the end, but that was it.
The acting was very mediocare, but then again the roles really didn't ask for a whole lot. If I had to catagorize it; I would call it a "Chick Flick". The nice thing about it was that it easily could have been depressing and heavy, it had all the elements to turn out that way, but it never did. It stayed rather light. My mother picked it out, and it has much more of a "motherly" feel, because you are watching this woman raise the next two generations of her life.
So I would think mothers would appericate and like it a lot more than teenagers or younge adults. On a rainy sunday I would recomend it, but any other day, I don't think it would really fit. B

But I saw it for sale on the clearence rack and I like both Renee' Zellweger and Tim Roth so I thought,"What the Hell?"

The movie could have had a lot more content about the murder than it did. The focus point seemed to not be on the person who had been cut in half, but on the process of the pollygraph. At many times, this movie ran slow. But the acting was pretty impressive, especially when Tim Roth constantly was having seizers and spells; with out the good actors, this movie would have pretty much have been a BLAH film. But sense it wasnt rated, I figure it was made for TV, so in that case, I give it a little more credit. My main problem was how this movie had so much build up, then relied on the ending, which was good, but nothing special.
If you've got a free couple of hours, give it a try, but please don't expect too much, or you'll be highly dissapointed. C+


8/28/02(2004)"Seeing Other People"-Jay Mohr, Julianne Nicholson, Josh Charles W& D-Wallace Wolodarsky(A couple's relationship is almost destroyed because they think that they have not had enough sexual experiences before they get married) This movies was a Sundance Film Festival winner; which everyone knows, I am not the biggest fan of. I tend to think that they just give... ]]> ~Avadraste
