Things are resolved. All is merry.

Thank you to those.

I haven't said anything because that's the last thing she needs; me whining. I don't know what to do. Last night she ditched me to drink with other friends and although she didn't directly say I wasn't wanted, I made the decision easy for her and said it was okay I didn't have to go.

I don't know what to do. Can someone help? Possibly express how they might view the situation?

Anyway, so here is my development. It doesn't really have a direction but this is the premise for what I will be drawing and posting.

Gryffindor would be the wild party house, mainly drinking but the occasional marijuana.

Hufflepuff would be VERY straight edge, not judgemental but they'd be the kids who are very clearly uncomfortable around underage 'fun'.

Ravenclaw would be a little less straight edge than Hufflepuff but the majority would be clean while a few of them might delve into the dirty drugs like Meth and crack.

Slytherin would OBVS. be the most elite in terms of their drugs. They would have very exclusive parties and the only drugs would be pure cocaine and champagne. No messy Syltherin parties, class all the way.

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

Neville Longbottom is clearly the school's biggest and best chronic dealer, because he is the person you would least suspect but you can still see it, regardless! It is defs not a coincidence that he becomes the new Herbology teacher!!

Hermione Granger is obvs. straight edge and very against it, so needless to say Ron and Harry must sneak around.

Ginny... I think she's okay with it but prefers to drink (lightly) than do any drugs.

Harry and Ron love their chronic and are known for it, they are the people to party with, aside from the Weasley twins. (Actually, the Weasley's would be notorious for the craziest wild parties).

Fred and George would have introduced Harry and Ron to chronic, they would also be the main dealers for E, K and Acid.

Percy obvs. straight edge but would let the teachers know ASAP.

Luna obvs. likes shrooms and passes them off as something else and nobody questions her.

Draco loves him some blow.


I think that's it, but if you have any questions or comments do feel free! I would love to hear what you think!!

I have NEVER re-read a book... wow.

Anyway, so the point of this is, I have taken such a liking to it that I am defs, going to be posting fan art... but it might not be of people you expect.

Unfortunately, as much as I actually like all the characters (there isn't one I hate)I just don't like Daniel Radcliffe as an actor... he's really not good at all. HOWEVER! When he drank that liquid luck! I went nuts; he had identical symptoms to that of a person on a pot high, I was absolutely stunned at how well he did it. In other words, he could blaze with me anytime! So Bravo to that!

...wow this post was rather pointless.

I've looked at their residencies and it's the New Yorker Hotel, which in other words is another tuition in and of itself. So I looked at the other options, I'm liking the idea of going to the Brandon Residence, which is in Upper west Side (85th Street) it's a little over $1000 a month which isn't awful.

I've already been given a $13,000 scholarship, which blows my mind. However I will need money while I'm down there. I am not allowed to get a work visa, so does anybody know of some under the table jobs?

So, I've posted the beginning to one of my stories and I would really appreciate anyone making a comment on it. I would like to get an idea of how the public see it. It is not perfect but I like to think it is decent. Please take a look.

So it's been a while, and now it's a brand new year...
I'm already scared about things, but I'm hoping for the best.
I've been in Ireland for the last two weeks, visiting my family for christmas and the New Year. It was a great trip, and very much needed, we haven't been in eight years.
I've never missed them this much. Probably because I was too young to realize what was happening. I didn't realise how hard leaving would be. It's strange though, I coudn't even formulate it into words properly. I was watching my mother say good-bye to her older sister, and they haven't exactly had the best realtionship throughout their lives, but it seemed to have no impact on them at all.
All their history had lost its significance. The uncertainty of when or if they would see each other again was enough to make them never want to let go.

Love is a strange thing, no matter what kind of love it is. No matter how much of a labour it is, no matter how tumultuous it is, when it's there it is incredibly strong. People will live through hell because they love someone so much. They will bring themselves pain because of their love.

I don't want this to sound stupid or a desperate attempt at sounding profound, nor do I want to sound like an idiot for not knowing that, it's just strange to see the consequences of love so raw and honest.

So School starts next week, which is FABULOUS...
Ah well I suppose I shouldn't be complaining there are many worse things than school.
So I am in my final year of high school! It is absolutely crazy I'm so scared! I mean I know what I want to do, but I have no means of paying for it! So there are some scholarships with my name on it!

So here is where I am looking for any of your involvement!
I'm looking to go into the arts, performance in particular; Music, Drama or even both (musical theatre). If any of you know some good programs let me know!

Well the reason is I was added by someone who completely made me regret posting the address. It wasn't something they said, but it was something they showed me.
So to prevent that from happening again, I have made the address inaccessable.

Sorry to anyone who is a decent person and wanted it.

I know it's been a long time, and I apologize to anyone who actually is interested in my journal updates.

Anyway, so this one is sort of like a poll. See I want to try and sell my artwork but I'm not sure of which ones to print. I don't want to print them all because that would be a waste, so I want to know which ones are most likely to sell. So if you really like a particular piece can you tell me that you think I should print it.

Oh, and also if any of you are good with prices, an estimate would be fantastic.

Thank you very much!

Vanoku

Now, I'm sure you've all heard of the the movie Sweeney Todd, and to be honest with you it was really good, for a movie. I love the cast that he chose, it was well done, and overall very entertaining.
I'm not giving a movie review, don't worry, but I am bitching about a wrong doing that Burton committed!

I like Tim Burton I like all the cast so I'm not biased and I'm not bashing anyone.

However this movie is based off of a Musical by Stephen Sondeim, who composed it from a book. The movie did not do either justice! Everyone wanted to see this damn movie beacuse, ooh!, Johnny Depp is in it! Well damn! There is an amazing musical out there that is not gettign any credit, people don't know anything about it!

Burton did not pay Sondheim justice! Did you know that Mrs. Lovett is not supposed to be beautiful, or kind? She is a self-serving woman who is manipulative and corrupt! Granted I like her. Sweeney was portrayed quite accurately.

Did you know Johanna thinks the Judge is her father, and that she actually has a personality? She's actually in love with Antony and there is a song 'Kiss Me' that was erased! Along with the judge molesting her and the overture 'Ballad of Sweeney Todd' which sets the mood for the whole thing!

GAAH! And they BASTARDIZED 'A little priest', there is soo much more and they took out almost every punn!

Well there's more that pissed me off, but I'll leave it there for now...

As for the good things! The orchestra was phenomenal, orgasmic, incredible, stellar! The little boy who played Tobias/Toby was stellar, absolutely exceptional. They used Alan Rickman!! 'By the Sea' was fabulous, 'Not While I'm Around' fabulous... for the most part the songs that they did were good if they didn't tear them apart.

Well that's about it... don't bitch, it's true.

So I've recently been filled with a new mindset. I have been thinking about all the things that I've upset about then it dawned on me, I am completely in control of my emotions. It is entirely up to us about how we feel and what is going on in ur lives. We can choose to feel happy or sad about something and through positive thinking we truly can accomplish anything.
If we truly believe with all our heart, and channel our energy into something we can manipulate things to happen as we want. For example if we keep telling ourselves we're going to get sick, you probably will, but if you tell yourself you're going to get better you will. Also Having a positive mindset helps keep you healthy mentally and physically.
I mean there have been people paralyzed from the neck down, who have walked again all because they believed with all their heart and mind that they would.

It may seem complicated, but it's really not. If there is something you truly want, fill your head with positive thoughts and channel all you energy into that and chances are, if you do it right, you'll get it.

1. I have been interested in art since I was very young, and have always wanted a life centred around it. Regardless of the medium and I mean that in every aspect, including performance media.

2. I do not like the Beatles, and I hate how liking them or disliking determines how good your taste in music is. The only reason I don't liek them is because of Paul McCartney, I happen to love John Lennon, I am aware he was part of the Beatles. The reason they had some good songs is because John Lennon wrote them.

3. I am currently in love with one boy. This is the third year of being insignificant.

4. I don't like cats but I love dogs.

5. I'm a big bitch, I'll probably die alone. At least I can acknowledge and admit it though, I mean I'd have to embrace it one day, might aswell start early.

6. I have had three 'Near-Death' experiences.

7. I can't wait to leave my hometown.

8. I REALLY don't want kids.
