that title only makes sense if you've read all the comments on the post below. :) which you should, because there's a sweet birthday rap, and some dead pets! :)
THANK YOU GUYS FOR THE BEST BIRTHDAY I COULD EVER HAVE ASKED FOR!!!!
I had SUCH a great time you guys! Lee came over early and gave me my b-day gift, which was a glass flower...he said he tried to find me the same one that I have a tattoo of...but unfortunately failed miserably! lol! It's ok, Lee, I still love it! Amber and Kaitlyn had to go to the post office for something, so I stayed home with Brianna and Laura (who came over after Lee) Jake, and "anonymous friend" of Jake's. He was the weirdest dude...no one knew who he was, he just came over and hung out with Jake while I danced like a crazy person to Kiltlifters, getting myself pumped for the night! Kaitlyn Lee and Amber arrived home, bringing me a case of coolers! WOO! They shall be drunk tomorrow night while at work! :D
Thank you Brianna for dinner at ACME! Me, Brianna, and Laura had dinner there, (I had wings) and had a good ole Collective get together, which was awesome. I would have felt incomplete if I didnt chill with Collective at least once on my nineteenth birthday. Not the best service though...the waitress didn't even look in on us, and had no idea it was mybirthday until Brianna paid, and she asked us what our plans were for the rest of the night. At that point, I pretty much shrieked, "IT'S MY BIRTHDAY!" (this was a recurring thing throughout the night--obviously) and she laughed and gave me a free shot of B52... thus begins the madness! :)
So then I returned home to get ready with AK, and the rest of the b-day crew! While I was at ACME, Martha turned up to help me celebrate! I got home to a couch full of happiness, with Martha, and Jake, and Amber doing stuff on the computer. Amber burned me a birthday CD, which I love A LOT, and shall be listened to until I hate it, which will be never! So we pumped that super loud and all got prettified (me and Kaitlyn wore dresses! and Amber sexified herself with a really cool jacket that somehow I've never seen before. She even busted out her amazing cleavage for my super sexellent nineteenth!), and while we were doing that, Kylan arrived, toting a gigantic TV for AKA House! NO MORE TINY SCREEN! It doesn't even fit in our entertainment center, it's so big! So that was super cool...
So the boys were whining about being hungry, but AKA wouldn't leave without busting out to Sexy Back, as is tradition! Seriously, if we didn't dance to that before we left the house, the world would end...I'll never be able to go to the bar ever again if I don't get pumped up with the song first! Finally we left for Fast Eddies, with Lee and AK in one car, and Ky, me and Martha in the other. Allen met us there, and we all had dinner! (my second of the night, lol!) I had prawns. They were sunshine in my belly. :) While we were there I had a porn star fishbowl, my first Priarie Fire shot (oh dear christ it hurt me), during which Ace called me and Ky gave him a play by play while I took it, lol!, and a muffdiver! Hilarious! I'm pretty sure there's a picture of me with whipped cream all over my face floating around out there, which will be added to the file of Sexiest Pictures of Alleah Ever Taken--NOT! So at this point, I'm three shots and three ounces in. Allen bought me my prawns, (without telling me! sneaky boy...), and we headed off to go bar hopping!
So, between Fast Eddies and the bar, we lost Ky, Martha and Allen, but I called Biff, and he met us at The Foundry, which I had never been in before. Geoff was there before us, and when we rolled in, he bought me a shot of scotch...now that tasted like doom! But at least we made some Anchorman jokes, so it was worth it! :D thanks Geoff! Lee tried to win me a stuffy with a do rag, but failed--three times! I was so looking forward to that! lol, it's ok, it's impossible to win those machines, and the magic of my birthday just isn't strong enough to change that! At the Foundry, Kaitlyn bought me a rum and coke, Biffer bought me a beer and gave me the one he got on the house from Dan, and I got another muff diver on the house because I was obnoxious about it beign my birthday, lol! So at this point, I've had four drinks, and five shots... Yes, I actually fell into drunkeness at the Foundry. It was a funny drunk though. It was literally like...sober one second and drunk the next...there was no buzzed! Good times! Kaitlyn and I had bathroom girly chats, and I'm sure she felt as spiffy as I did, strutting to the bathroom and back in our dresses and boots! The towel dispenser confused me, but I pwned it eventually... that made me mad in my drunken state...why would you have a complicated towel dispenser in a pub? lol, silly bathrooms! Dan (the bartender) and I fought over who was going to take Biff home that night (again, Alleah's birthday + drunk = obnoxious), and then we headed off to the Globe.
The Globe was lame, and where the party was, and as such actually had a bouncer, and I didn't have proper ID, so I couldn't get in. No hard feelings, though...I know it's just because the cops were ten times more likely to show up because it was packed and if I got caught without proper ID (birthday or no birthday), it could get them a big fat fine. Poor Biff, though...he got in ahead of me, and got a glimpse of titty before we had to turn around. Lee didn't get any titty at all. I apologized profusely to the boys before we headed off to 70...
which ROCKED, as always! It was busy enough to be fun, but not so packed with lamecores that I wanted to go home. This deceptively young-looking lesbian hit on me, and bought me a drink, which I think was a muff diver...but I don't remember; that one might have been on the house... but yeah, I had my third muffdiver there, and a Breezer, a Gladiator drop-shot (I LOVE them now! thanks Kaitlyn!), and a Long Island ice tea, which was also super yummy! So after 70 Below, in total, I had... six drinks, and seven shots. :) I. Was. Happy. lol!
At 70, I danced a lot, and Sexy Back came on twice, and they played some actually good dance music, even if the X-fades kinda sucked a little, and I had fucking boatloads of fun before we finally headed home. We walked back to the cars, which were parked at the Foundry, and at the parking lot, Bartender Dan called Biff, (cause he could see us out the window) and told him to smack my ass for him, so Biff did, and I was super confused until I finally figured it out in my pathetic drunken state, lol! And of course we got stopped by a road block and I had to seriously restrain myself from acting like a obnoxious idiot on my birthday (which really was what I was!), but finally we got through the road block and got home safely, with no mishaps, other than being turned away from one lame ass strip bar.
Once home however...we were all chilling, Amber on the computer, Kaitlyn and Lee on one couch, me and Biffer on another, when the doorbell rings and I answer it, and it's this weird fat drunk guy covered in blood...apparently he slipped and cut himself, and I gave him some paper towel and a plastic glass of water, and tried to look at his cut, but Lee thankfully stopped me before I contracted AIDS or something...after that, all I remember is Lee peeking out the blinds...or something...I don't know...
Shortly after I went to bed!
So that is the story of Alleah's SUPER FANTABULOUS NINETEENTH BIRTHDAY!!! It was seriously such a great night! The only thing that would have made me more happy would have been if the Jordan's and Lisa had been there...I missed you guys so much that night! But even so, everyone who spent some time with me on my birthday helped make it one of the most awesome nights of my life! Thank you all so much! :D *biggest smile in the WHOLE world!*
And to complete the story of wonder and joy, tonight on my way home from work, I discovered Amber had waited up for me (until four in teh morning! urg..) and she needed a girl talk, so we walked to sevvie and discussed things, and I bought smokes for the first time EVAR! NO BOOT NEEDED!!! I finally feel like an adult. I can do--WHATEVER I WANT!
except get into the Globe on busy nights. shut up.
:D <3

merry christmas to all
...and to all a safe night!
So, A Christmas Carol is finally over. I somehow managed to survive Hell Week with a minimum of damage...only a very very drunken pass-out which involved Lee and Amber taking care of me while I threw up and almost fell asleep with McDonald's cradled in my arms. The shows were pretty good. Small houses the first two nights, and an acceptable turn out on closing. I'm happy to say that everyone who saw it thought it was good, with the notable exception of Lee...but then Lee is all about the making fun of things! Everyone else thought it was cool.
I was very proud of my performance of Tiny Tim...somehow, during three lines and a small movement peice, he managed to steal the hearts of the audience like he always does! :) Probably because my Tiny Tim was the most shamelessly retarded ever played! ;) Who needs a Tiny Tim with dignity? He's a cripple! Let's make people laugh instead! I was very disappointed to see no helmet by my makeup closing night though! I totally would have worn it onstage.
As Caroline, me and the Biffer gave Matt Baillie the grins...you know that smiley feeling you get after a chick flick? Well, Matt said that was him during me and Biffer's scenes! :D I was pretty jazzed about that one.
And as the Ghost I know I was scary at LEAST once--it was during a dress rehearsal, but whatevs! lol! I think I nailed it on the last night, though, Amber said my hands had a lot more power in them, and when I point offstage, she said she always had to hide because it creeped her out that I was pointing at her! The thing about playing the Ghost is that, while it looks easy to just kinda stand around and point, it's actually very difficult to stand motionless for long periods of time. Not only that, but the only way I can convey emotion is with my hands and body, because the cloak completely obscures my face. There's very big differences between when I was in the Zone and Ghostly and when I was just doing it. I mean, to be completely motionless, I had to concentrate on bending my knees, so I didn't pass out, breathing deeply, but not hyperventilating, and using my diaphragm so that the audience couldn't tell I was breathing. I only did that really well on the dress. Ky said I actually didn't move at all, and was much better than other nights. Not only that, but the cloak was such a bitch to work in...it was SO heavy! And I had to tack up my smock underneath the cloak about fifteen times to keep myself from tripping on it. I tripped twice on opening night, and on the second night, my glasses fell from my pockets and like three people stepped on them, lol...but the last night was super!
Anyhoo, the shows went well, and we will find out how much we made on the twentyeighth, thank goodness...I hope I can make my rent next month without being short, or having to wait for my student loan.
Then yesterday, i had Christmas with my family early. I got lots of gifts, more than last year or the year before, and I felt so bad because I hadn't been able to get anyone gifts myself. That was really the only bad thing about this Christmas. Was that it was early and too rushed and I wasn't able to get anyone anything. I love Christmas because I am almost always able to find everyone something that they absolutely LOVE. I was so sad that I didn;'t get to do that this year. Hopefully though, I'll get a good enough settlement that I can have a late Christmas with the roomies, the friends and the fam. That'll be fun for everyone!
I think the thing that made my gifts better than other years is that almost everyone got me stuff that I actually like! There was a distinct LACK of makeup bought for me this year, lol! And some really sweet gifts, instead! I got this really pretty plant with rocks and a glass container. I set that up in the back window by my room today. I got this set of four big mugs with hot chocolate and MARSHMALLOWS! I got this beautiful set of bath products that I'm super excited about! Itr's this crazy plum vanilla flavor and the hand cream smells SO good I can't wait to use the rest of it. It also came with body lotion, shower gel, a bar of soap, body butter, bath salts, bubble bath, FOOT SOAK (no more stinky feet, whee!), and a couple of loofahs and whatnot. SO excited to use it! And it all came in this big brown leather carrying case that is easily my favorite thign in the whole world! I also got two pairs of slippers, Spongebob pajama pants, Ken gave me a mickey of Crown Royal with two shot glasses in this pretty tin, a random spongebob dvd and kids book, lol, a poster, and a bunch of socks! Thank goodness, lol....that was seriously all I asked for was socks! Sherayna got me a twentyfive dollar gift card for thrifty foods! I was EXCITED for that, let me tell you! Courtney got me this pretty candle with this poem about sisters on it, in this really pretty box...she's so obsessed with Hallmark, lol! My aunty Pat got me a beautiful black cordouroy vest with silver stitching on it! It was seriously the first peice of clothing bought for me for Christmas that I've LIKED in like five years! And then of course I got chocolates, and stuff like that, like every Christmas, lol! My grandparents are hilarious! They bought me a calendar, like they do every year, but this year, my grampa opened a bit of the packaging on the side and slipped a twentydollar bill INTO the packaging! He laughed like an idiot when I couldn't figure out why I couldn't touch the bill for like ten minutes! (I was hung over, shut up!)
I'm pretty sure I got more stuff than just that, but that's all I can remember off the top of my head...I was pretty darn happy, though, I'll tell you that much. I can't remember the last time I had such a good Christmas, as far as gifts go, lol! Then we had a gigantic dinner like we do every year, and I stuffed my face! Who knows when I'm going to get another meal like that? Oh man, it was soooooo good!
I ended up missing the Whitfield show, but Biffers went and got sauced and called me at two in the morning last night, waking me up, lol! I tried to call him back, but he wouldn't pick up. I called him back this morning, and he was all like, omg I'm so hungover, and told me all about it! I was sooooo jealous when I heard about his night! It sounded like such a blast! I won't even tell you the best part, but let me just say I am now FRANTICALLY trying to get the thirtieth off work.... you have no idea how bad I want this night off, now!
And now, I'm just sitting in my house going through apres-closing blues. When you can't stop movig around because it feels like there's somethign you should be doing, but there really isn't at all. I HATE that!
Anyhoo, I'm gonna go finish cleaning the kitchen and then my bedroom. Amber's going to Qualicum today to have X-mas with her fam, so I'll be alone and bored tonight and tomorrow. My bro might come over later, or might not, he's not exactly reliable, and Gregoire I think is alone for Christmas too, so I might call him up and see if we can't get into some trouble. Biff said he was going to ask his parents if I could spend X-mas eve with them, so I might do that tonight. I'm not sure yet.
So basically, all Im REALLY positive of, is that I have a basement full of rat poison and needs to check it for carcasses. So laters!

shameless plug
WHAT: A Christmas Carol to the Rock Stylings of Whitfield, Youth Genius Productions
WHERE: Malaspina Theatre, 900 Fifth Street, Nanaimo, BC
WHEN: December 20-22, 2006, 7 PM
HOW MUCH: tentatively at $10 a ticket. We will also be selling Whitfield band merchandise at $10 per CD, and $15 per t-shirt. All prices are tentative as of yet, and there may be a student discount.
Ok, buddies! Above is the important info! Here's where I promote the sweet-ass band we are working with! Whitfield is an incredible group of four guys, originally from Kamloops and the UK respectively, based out of Vancouver, which played at Malaspina on the 24th, and loved it so much, they just wanna come back to Nanaimo! Various ideas are being thrown around at this time, a couple of which involving additional live performance, and I would be willing to bet that if this show is a success (which depends on YOU!) they would be more than happy to come back to Nanaimo and do another performance! If you weren't lucky enough to catch their show here in town on the twenty-fourth, you can listen to a taste of their sound at their Myspace, which can be reached through their official website! As you can see above, their CD will be available for purchase at A Christmas Carol, so if you missed out on buying one at their last gig, they will be here for the taking once again at A Christmas Carol!
A Christmas Carol is a Youth Genius production, directed by Ryan Levis, of Hey You Improv Club notoriety, and produced in cooperation with Malaspina Theatre. Everyone involved with the production are locally based, and chances are, you're going to be seeing a lot of familiar faces! Liberties have been taken with the script, and it has been placed in a 1980's setting, with the classic Scrooge character the CEO of a multi-billion dollar corporation in downtown Vancouver!
In conclusion, the success of A Christmas depends on YOU, so come see a timeless Christmas classic, with a modern spin provided by the mellow sound of Whitfield! This is going to be a party and a half, so come out on December 20-22, and tell your friends, family, and the guy who delivers your mail to come, too!
WHERE: Malaspina Theatre, 900 Fifth Street, Nanaimo, BC
WHEN: December 20-22, 2006, 7 PM
HOW MUCH: tentatively at $10 a ticket. We will also be selling Whitfield band merchandise at $10 per CD, and $15 per t-shirt. All prices are tentative as of yet, and there may be a student discount.
Ok, buddies! Above is the important info! Here's where I promote the sweet-ass band we are working with! Whitfield is an incredible group of four guys, originally from Kamloops and the UK respectively, based out of Vancouver, which played at Malaspina on the 24th, and loved it so much, they just wanna come back to Nanaimo! Various ideas are being thrown around at this time, a couple of which involving additional live performance, and I would be willing to bet that if this show is a success (which depends on YOU!) they would be more than happy to come back to Nanaimo and do another performance! If you weren't lucky enough to catch their show here in town on the twenty-fourth, you can listen to a taste of their sound at their Myspace, which can be reached through their official website! As you can see above, their CD will be available for purchase at A Christmas Carol, so if you missed out on buying one at their last gig, they will be here for the taking once again at A Christmas Carol!

you, me, and the windshield
reading everyone's morning after posts has got me thinking...about mortality! Quite the cheery topic on a snow-blanketed, wintry morn.
(yeah, that's right. I said morn. like it bitches!)
Yesterday me and Davies and Kaitlyn and Jill were in a car accident that could have been a whole lot worse if Davies wasn't extremely prepared, and good at driving. Thankfully the only injuries were some cuts on Jill's hands (closest to the shattered window), possibly a little whiplash, and four shocky theatres. Basically, we topped a blind hill, and saw a back ho making its way onto the road, with it's bicket raised. When we realized it wasn't going to stop, Davies braked and the car started drifting. It drifted to the side, but kept coming at the backho straight on. That feeling of complete helplessness and only being able to watch and KNOWING what was going to happen is the worst feeling you could ever have.
Buddy tried to raise the bucket, but the bottom clipped Davies roof anyway...and when I say clipped, I mean crunched the roof inwards, shattered the back right window, and narrowly missed killing Jill. If it had been lower...the force of the impact would have thrown Jill into the bucket when the car hit...
If Davies hadn't swerved, the car would have slid straight on into the bucket, and it would have gone through the windshield, killing or severely injuring me or Davies. What if we'd been going faster? What if the guy hadn't raised the bucket? what if what if what if...
It all comes down to how lucky I feel today that those what ifs didn't happen. It happened the way it did, and everyone is ok. But only a tiny change in the events could have meant huge consequences. We are all so fragile...it would take such a small thing to change our lives drastically. What if Jill wasn't here anymore? What if Davies wasn't around anymore? What if I wasn't around anymore?
If I ask one thing of all of you this Christmas season, it's to BE CAREFUL! It is so easy to get yourself into a life-changing situation. Please don't leave me one friend short...

enough is enough
My patience with you is GONE.
You are immature. You are spoiled. You are rude. You are a control freak. You are mean, and self-centred, and I am FUCKING SICK OF DEALING WITH IT!!!!!!
You think you can just DELETE what we say that you don't like? Grow some fucking balls and own up to what you do that is wrong! How dare you censor me with your super-wonderful MOD powers!!! Just because I said something that you don't want to hear, you cover it up as if it never happened. Well, guess what? You can't censor me here! And everyone who reads this is going to read your attitude towards me today. Which I cannot handle any more.
Me, Kaitlyn, Jill and Davies were in a CAR ACCIDENT today! No, no one was hurt, thank god, but when the hell did blood and guts make for the only car accident that means anything? And for that matter when was the last time you gave a shit about me being hurt? You make jokes about me, and everything I have done/gone through everyday all day long and you can't even fucking tell when it actually HURTS! You insensitive prick.
And then you have the balls to be pissed off when Kaitlyn and I won't do what you want us do on your command? You know what, if you want Barbie dolls, we'll get you some, because I sure as hell am not your play toy to be ordered about by you!
And because you thought I was rude to your family (when it wasn't even me for god sakes) you come home, insult everything me and Kaitlyn have done and then go hide in your room! WHAT THE HELL!
I called you first when we were in that accident, because I thought that you might be able to stop thinking about yourself long enough to give a shit about your roommates safety. Obviously I was wrong. I just never knew you were that selfish and pigheaded as to come home and completely ignore us.
WHAT THE FUCK DID WE DO???? NOTHING!!!!!!
NOTHING NOTHING NOTHING!!!!!!!!! WE WERE ALWAYS YOUR FRIEND!~!!!! WE DID WHAT YOU WANTED WHETHER OR NOT WE WANTED TO!!! WE LET YOU HAVE YOUR WAY WITH EVERYTHING !!!!! AND THE MINUTE SOMETHING HAPPENS THAT DOESN'T DIRECTLY INVOLVE YOU, you fucking let us down.
I cannot believe you.

leon is neat-o!
Acting rocked my socks today! We scrapped the Edward III play and did on camera work instead! We also got handed out scripts for our new semester end projects, which is totally sweet! And we impersonated each other for almost all of the class, which was hilarious! needless to say, it was one hell of an awesome class! According to Leon, the most important thing to me right now is money, because of where I put my emphasis when I tell stories!
I also met Dave today...good. fuckin. times. We watched King Kong at his house after he took me out for some dinner, which was totally great! Yeah, it was a pretty good night!
Pinto's life is rocking pretty hardcore right now. Except for my essay. Which will be pwned before the end of the week. Sounds good!

oh, listen! I can hear the ocean! Where is that coming from???
Ryan Crowder is the dopest shit going! And the source of above quote!
Don't you freakin love it when things just start working out? Today has been sweet! Shortly after I posted below, I went to 711 with the Amber, and checked my bank account for shits and giggles and discovered fifty extra dollars!!! AWESOME! Let's just say...no longer niccing!
Tonight's rehearsal was really really productive and didn't make me nearly as sore as previous ones, so I must be getting into much better shape, thank goodness. It's those muthafuckin stairs! They're brutal! And the centre work actually started to help with my character and make sense...Ryan works with a very technique-oriented style, using very actor-y shiz-nit to produce the effect he wants. Most of these techniques don't do crap for me; example, the Alexander technique just makes me want to fall asleep like Leon in the ULTIMATE RELAXATION STATE! (lol, second year acting class!) But the centres have started to actually make sense, and in some cases help. We've also been concentrating on breathing techniques more than any show I've ever done that I wasn't also singing in! Those two things have been helping me so much with the Ghost of X-mas yet to come....gotta love it!
Then afterwards, most of us were so hungry, we were doodling pizzas in our scripts so me, Crowder, Biffer and Jen Schaper headed off to Timmies, where I promptly applied for work (urgh, I'm nuts). We ate the most satisfying chili ever, while discussing variations of the 69 sexual postitions as well as telling Brad 2.0 stories, and having a footsie orgy under the table. It was hella fun! Afterwards, Crowder drove me home, and we had probably the most awesome talk I've had since that hours-long conversation with Dave a couple nights ago...we talked about dogs, and Brazilian girls, and age differences...it was freakin sweet.
Also, while I was at rehearsal, I got a phone call from my sister telling me that she's come into some extra $$$ and decided to randomly pay my $150 phone bill!!! AWESOME!!! That, in addition to the fact that our hydro isn't nearly as much as I thought it was and should be almost entirely covered solely in empties money, just makes my life totally sweet!
I haven't heard from person #1 (at the last party) in almost a week, so I guess that solves that, and person #2 (not at the last party, but Gregoire drunkenly screamed at the phone I was talking to him on) just keeps seeming better and better as time goes by! All condendrums are being solved as time goes by, and as busy and broke as I am, things seem to be taking care of themselves! I FUCKING love life!

not that I don't love your womanly parts, but...
^^^Amber, on my voicemail warning me not to be naked when she came home today!
I have a tiny little wrist...and that's cool. And my tattoo is gorgeous! Everytime I look at it, it surprises me that I can run my fingers overtop it and not feel anything...I love my tatties! Also when I bend my wrist, my tattoo gets squished...and that's awesome!
I really don't have all that much to say, I just figured to was time for a new post...
I'm starting to burn out. I missed stagecraft today. I should have gotten up and even if I didn't go to class at least worked on my essay...but I didn't. Instead I slept until one thirty, and I still don't feel all that great, so it wasn't even that worth it to sleep in that long. I did have an interesting dream though. Oh and I lost my only day off forever tonight! I didn't have Urinetown tonight and thought Christmas Carol wasn't rehearsing on Tuesdays until Dec 8th, but apparently Levis is a crazy mofo and is having five day a week rehearsals anyways (which I may remind him is against our contract). So now I've lost one of my only days off in forever. And the rehearsals themselves are brutal! Five hours long with warmups alone lasting fortyfive minutes, an hour! The friggin show reads about thirty five minutes, we're not doing fucking Sophocles here! We don't NEED this much rehearsal time! Plus they are intensely physical, worse than the U-town choreos, so I'm sore as hell all the time...AND they're held in the Cabin which is pretty much at the top of every single stair on the campus (which if you didn't know is on a MOUNTAIN FOR FUCKS SAKE!)
And it doesn't help that I haven't had more than two cigarettes in two days. I'm practically quitting against my will! (shut up, I know I'm nicing a little bit right now...)
Whatever...I need a shower. Then I'm going to try and get some research in before my five-fortyfive call for Christmas Carol. urgh

The New 15
1) This is goodbye. I loved you very very much, and allowed my life to revolve around your for far too long. You taught me some incredible lessons and for that I thank you. But you have hurt me for the last time. I'll miss you very much, but I'm also going to move on and experience what I've been missing while I was focusing on you.
2) I love you lots, and want the best for you, but sometimes cannot control my temper...especially lately. I'm pretty sure you know this, but just to reaffirm, I value you tons, and want to see you do good with your life, and if I find your little idiosyncracies irritating, I'm sure you find mine just as bad. We're all rooting for you m'dear, so go get 'em!
3) Wowzers, you're damn cool! I think you are super pretty, and I think you and he will have good times together. You;re also a shitload of fun to party with and have been so since the first time I saw you rolling around on my floor at ten in the evening! ;) love ya tons, babe, just no more pantry adventures for you, k?
4) It seem like your life is really pulling together...you've got the girl, the gig, the car. JAWSOME! Now all you have to figure out is where to go from there. And don't forget to bring some porn the next time you stop by AKA House!
5) You're the fuckin BEST! Seriously! You are so much fun, all of the time, and genuinely a really nice person! You always bring the party, and riding your man saddle is always on my mind! ;D Sometimes I wonder though what it's like for you when you're not in the crazy party head space. Don't forget to let a little of that out to, when you need to. much loves, my darling!
6) Wow, so...you confuse me a lot. Is the switch on, or off? Make a decision, or I'm going to move on.
7) I was reading old blog posts the other day and I found a comment from you about how much you missed me during the summer and how seeing me made like your whole week. And that made me realize that, as mean to me as you are, you do still love me, and I'm not silly for trying to be your friend. I love you lots, and I want you to be super happy (even though you burn me all the time, and we don't get along in your crazy SM mode). This is me giving you a super hug right now!
8) I love that you're so involved in my life this year...we were friends last year but I think we have grown so much closer and I love that. I'm sure things about me annoy you, but thanks for being so easy to deal with. It's always really easy to solve problems with you, and I love that! Don't forget you deserve the best my dear, and if certain people aren't treating you like the Irish Princess that you are, kick 'em to the curb and find someone who will. You are entitled to the very best.
9) I don't know what to do about you...I am extremely interested, but I have a dilemma. I don't know why this always happens right when I find a guy I'm really into...but there's another one too. And now I have to choose. You and him are exact opposites and I'm not sure what I need right now...whether to go for the maturity aspect, or the common age aspect. Just know that I am not going to get serious with anyone until I know exactly what I'm going to do.
10) K, you're yucky, I'm sorry. You are so socially incapable, it pains me to be around you. When I heard your tone speaking to *our* director the other day, I nearly fell off my chair. Only you would ever act so rude to someone who was PAYING you for your *ahem* ..."skills." We all know about your fucking award, and don't give a shit about it, so stop thinking it means anything.
11) Sometimes I think you hate me. And sometimes I think I deserve it. But is it so wrong to pursue what I want instead of settling for something for the sake of being nice? I don't think so.
12) You are so tall. Wow. But I like it...and our sign-in switch was the shiz-nit! I hope you and I become good friends in the near future, even with your paint-splattered disease feet!
13) I wasn't planning on letting this become something...and then it did. I don't know if you would be good for me, and I don't even know if it's really what I want. But I am attracted to you. And I can't change that. We'll just have to see what happens.
14) You're so cute! And I always see you having so much fun at the parties! I hope we become closer before the end of the year, because that be cool. Yeah, so damn cool.
15) I have said it for years...you're mentally unstable. .........not really, I just wanted to say that cause it's a Galaxy Quest quote! lol...but you do have some issues you need to work through. You know I;m there for you whenever you need it, the thing I can't understand is why you never think you need it! Accept some help before you lose friends.
2) I love you lots, and want the best for you, but sometimes cannot control my temper...especially lately. I'm pretty sure you know this, but just to reaffirm, I value you tons, and want to see you do good with your life, and if I find your little idiosyncracies irritating, I'm sure you find mine just as bad.

12) You are so tall. Wow. But I like it...and our sign-in switch was the shiz-nit! I hope you and I become good friends in the near future, even with your paint-splattered disease feet!
13) I wasn't planning on letting this become something...and then it did. I don't know if you would be good for me, and I don't even know if it's really what I want. But I am attracted to you. And I can't change that. We'll just have to see what happens.
14) You're so cute! And I always see you having so much fun at the parties! I hope we become closer before the end of the year, because that be cool. Yeah, so damn cool.
15) I have said it for years...you're mentally unstable. .........not really, I just wanted to say that cause it's a Galaxy Quest quote! lol...but you do have some issues you need to work through. You know I;m there for you whenever you need it, the thing I can't understand is why you never think you need it! Accept some help before you lose friends.

guardian angel
I think I have one!!! I walked to the downtown busstop today on my way to U-town rehearsal, but Jeremy called me and offered to drive me. So I started walking back, and while I was walking across the crosswalk where Pine merges into Bruce, I heard a screech and turned around and there was a car like a foot away from me! Seriously, I was a foot away from being hardcore smoked by a car today! Sure teaches me for walking around at night in the rain wearing all black with my head phones on!

"I took this town that formerly stank/I took this town and made it smell swank/I made flushing mean flush at the bank/I'm the man with the plan and so
whom should you thank?
Mr. Cladwell!!"
wooo! fun music. my computer seems to be working better lately...though I don't want to jinx it.
Ok...I really don't have that much to say (OH! I LOVE this song!!!) I met a cute guy on the internet, and I'm pretty interested in him. I added him but we'll see what happens.
I'm gonna go steal pics from all you Satyrs!

til then you better run, run-a freedom run, Freedom run away!
You'll get URINETOWN...away with you to URINETOWN...it's unisex at URINETOWN...all by design....
for the first time, in god knows how long, I am really REALLY enjoying being in a musical! Maybe it's the fact that I'm NOT wishing I could sing all four parts because the people who are singing the others suck, or maybe it's that as I go through my libreto, I keep finding my character name with really pretty solos, or maybe it's the fact that the score alone is bigger than any of the scripts I've handled since The Oresteia...but whatever the reason....I LOVE being in Urinetown! EVEN THOUGH I'm an alto trying to sing coluratura soprano, lol!
I LOVE the way Hilary rehearses...we waste no time in going over the lines, we have to sightread everything the first time, which I'm astonished, but I can actually kinda do! I mean, even WITH all the crappy six-flat key's, and natural notes all over the place, the time switches AND the bizarre rythm, which has ALWAYS been my weak suit! And she's harsh, too! "When Dean sings WRONG, you guys sing..." LOL! "HOW many of you people read music? Oh, all of you? You see that funny thing that looks like a zed? That means SHUT UP!" I love her SO much in this show! SHe made so much fun of me yesterday because the night before was closing...in one song we did last night, the music slows down a lot, and she looked straight at me and said "That should sound just right for you today, Alleah!" I laughed SO hard, holy crap!
And then Kelly Booker, the dance assistant, and fellow chorus member gave me a ride home, and we talked about B2B and the boys we mutually know the whole time...it was funny I was talking about how Geoff was bitter about me during Honk, and she just burst out laughing, and screamed "YOU'RE the EX!!!!!" oh. man. SO much fun!
But yeah, now I'm sitting in my living room on this GLORIOUS day off, and practicing along to the soundtrack and Kaitlyn and Amber keep making fun of me... good times, good times. Brianna will probably be mad at me, because I refused to go to her house today to practice X-mas carols for the Elf gig on the first, but honestly I needed a day off SO bad. I can practice songs I've known since I was a child another day. Today, I am taking care of biz-ness! woo!
Anyways, I'm gonna go...do dishes, or clean up my room or....somethin. I dunno. Just lounge around and love the fact that I don't have to go anywhere today if I don't wanna! BWA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!
(I DO NOT attack my keyboard when I type Amber and Kaitlyn! :P *raspberry*)

day by day...
I don't want the Twelfth Night to be over!!!!!!! Tonight is closing, and the very idea makes me want to cry! I know I'm goign to be a huge loser tonight and ball like a freakin baby! I've just had so much fun with this show! It has been the PERFECT show to be in...I LOVE Jerry, and the whole cast, and crew are a beautiful bunch of lovelies, and our audiences have been spectacular (excepting that one matinee with like five people who were all taking notes...losers). I don't want this to ever end...
I suppose the pain is eased by jumping right into two more shows...I will get no days off for the rest of my life, I am SOOO busy! Tomorrow, as hungover as I may be, I still have a rehearsal for Urinetown I need to be awake for. I LOVE what I do!
I've realized that the only way I can be this busy and not go insane is to just take it day by day...know what I need to do for the next couple of days, and let the future take care of itself. That way of thinking is also being a huge help with the irksome boy situation...whatever, I shall conquer that too, just not now!
Anyways, I need to post this before my computer dies, but hopefully I'll get on a cimputer at school so I can post another fifteen statements. Should be a good time! Oh yeah, and tell you all about how fucked I was two nights ago! :P My bros in the States need to hear all about my college-y, substance-filled adventures! ;)
ta ta for now, y'all!

where is my Colin Firth? where?
yes, yes, me and the girls had a chick flick night...Jill and Davies joined us. Much laughter ensued...over making fun of Lindsay Lohan, and wishing we had a Colin Firth (or in Amber's case Tuxedo Mask)...OOOOOOOHHHH, Sailor Moon.
gotta love it.
Colin? I wish you were here. I love you Colin.
