"Once On This Island in the South Pacific I heard a West Side Story about an orphan named Annie who used lots of Hairspray and Grease on her beautiful Hair. To which the Phantom of the Opera replied "You're a Funny Girl but I RENT a Wicked apartment on Avenue Q with my Cats, where I can hear the Sound of Music from a Chorus Line on 42nd Street." -credit to Sofri (Sofricus Aurora Zakuro) for the additions Shameless Plug: Sofri and I have started a new RENT roleplay called Tomorrow For Us!

Crazy is when you stare at a pencil and laugh when someone asks you just what you find so interesting about the eraser.

Put This In Your Profile If You're Still 5 Inside...No Matter How Old You Are Now RENT (credit to missxflawless for the beautiful writing!) RENT is my hope, my love, my fear, my passion, my obsession, my joy, my sorrow, my LIFE. RENT is love. I'm not just saying that. From the moment the first chords of Seasons chimed over the theatre speakers, I fell in love. I did. They've changed my life. RENT is about being young, being in love, being afraid and being brave, loving someone enough to keep them close to you, but loving them enough to let them go when it's their time. RENT is about hope, life, death, pain, misery, addiction. RENT is about life. Your life. Not only do you know these people, you are these people. Every one of them. If you can't relate with Mark you relate with Roger, or if you can't relate with Mimi you relate to Angel. There's more of you in all of these people than you realize there is. It's not about AIDS and Drag Queens and the Homeless, it's about your life. You experience love and hurt and fear just like these people do. RENT is about everything we experience everyday and that's why I love it. Thank you, Jonathan Larson. Homophobia: Stop the hate and spread the love! I am the girl kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am a lesbian. Gay marriage: 2) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall. 3) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract. 4) Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn't changed at all; women are still property, blacks still can't marry whites, and divorce is still illegal. 5) Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of Briteny Spears' 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed. 6) Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn't be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren't full yet, and the world needs more children. 7) Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children. 8) Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That's why we have only one religion in America. 9) Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That's why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children. 10) Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven't adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans... -- I'm INTO THEATRE & ART, so I MUST be a homosexual. ~STOP STEREOTYPES!

Sorry guys. 10/16/07 8:52 PM EST Mkay, so, I put up a new chapter of Young Bohemians a little while ago, which again shows off the awesomeness of Mr. Vinsely. However, that is not the real reason for this update. It is to announce: This weekend is a three-day, NO HOMEWORK weekend! Which means, of course, that I can devote much of my time to writing! WOOHOO! Expect quite a few updates come Friday night! 10/11/07 9:24 PM EST Wow... I really stepped out of my comfort zone tonight... A MoJo songfic, my first ever femslash centric story, and a KH romance centered one... Both things I've never done before... 10/9/07 12:20 AM EST No real point to this update, just felt like cursing my wicked insomnia... 10/8/07 11:04 PM EST Should totally be in bed right now, as usual. Anyways, I put up a new songfic today, a MimiRoger if you're interested. Also, TWO, count em, TWO chapters of Testing their Strength have been uploaded tonight, with much Alex bashing for my onee-chan Sofri. Hope you liked em, even though I was mean to Angel... it hurt... 10/7/07 8:27 PM EST Hey everybody! The next chapter of Young Bohemians is up for viewing! I got three chapters done this weekend, hooray! I know I still need to update Testing their Strength, but I'm having a strange lack of inspiration for that one. I'll get working on it ASAP, promise! |
