RE:  The Cover Art of the final Harry Potter Book, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

I've always thought that the "the veil" was going to come back to play a big part in the final two books.  It killed Sirius and it has a lot to do with death and we still don't know what the heck it's all about.  Being that the title of book seven is Deathly ( Read more... )

1. If you had to choose being blind or deaf, what would you choose and why?

I would rather be deaf so if any jerk tried to spoil the ending to Harry Potter 7, then I wouldn't hear them.  But really, I can't imagine what I would do without my sight.  I tune things out most of the time anyway so I think I could deal with the quietness of being deaf.

Shock and Loss.

It's the end of the quarter in the BFA acting program and we had our reviews with the faculty.  Four cuts were made to our class!  After everything I said in my last post about how wonderful I thought our class was, four cuts were still made.  Two of the cuts seemed justified.  I think there was a general feeling of worry for Max and ( Read more... )

My landlord and his wife are out of town, so I'm playing my iPod outloud.  And yes, I'm here alone on a saturday St. Patty's night.  But I won't be alone for long.

I'm swimming along nicely in the BFA acting program.  Yes, it's kicking my ass.  Yes, it's challenging.  Yes, it feels good to be alive, doing what I love.  Tonight is one of those nights ( Read more... )

It has been ages since my last real update about my adventures here in Santa Barbara.  Trouble is, I don't actually have time time to give a full update right now.  I have been so busy with classes and a side activitiy (which I will update about) that I have, literally, hardly been able to squeeze in an hours break each day from morning to midnight ( Read more... )

This friday five is thoroughly depressing.  However, it is probably the best set of friday five questions I have seen in a long time.  These questions are purely symbolic of real life, friendships, hopes, dreams, relationships, and finding meaning in life.   I'm not even going to answer them... yet.

Well Hillary is "In to Win"...

I actually think she is quite suitable as a candidate for the presidency.  Afterall, she practically ran the country when Bill was in office (well... we don't know that but... can anyone say Lady M. syndrome?)  Furthermore, I think she's a great candidate for the first woman president of the United States.

Out of the three courses you must take, two are courses of your choice and one is a critical reading and writing course.  If I wanted to, I could choose courses like "History of Blues" and "Shakespeare and Modern Culture" which I know I could ace.  As for the critical writing course, well I've already taken a course just like it and I got an A!   ( Read more... )
