I was up at my college bookstore yesterday buying my books and I ran into my old roommate who told me, since she had just heard it from the cashiers who had it up on their computers. We were sooo hoping it wasn't true, and I even said "I hope it wasn't from something dumb, like a drug overdose." And then I checked when I got home.....awww heath 
Morning everyone!!
Writing from school blehhh. I have class in 30 mins so I figured I'd pop on the Dis.
nsyncraider--i am EXTREMELY jealous that you have no class on fridays, but then again you have to work, which is icky as well.
What kind of job do you have?
Does anyone else have a job?
I work @ AMC.
I'll check in here later to see what's up with everyone.
Have a good morning!

I actually have three jobs lol. During the summer and winter break, I'm an intern at the same company my dad works at; he's an electrical engineer and they work on sonar systems and stuff like that. I do technical writing and formatting for documents they need to send out to customers, and basically whatever else they need me to do.......including ordering and picking up lunch, I am afterall the intern. 
My classes started last Thursday, yuck. lol.
Italian 202 is going to kick my butt, I'm soo bad at languages. Yet I'm still studying abroad in Italy next fall, go figure. haha
My directing class is going to be sooo cool. Right now, we are picking a 5-10 minute scene to direct for a Lunchtime Theatre Series. The auditions for the scenes are next week, and I get to cast/direct a scene. I'm probably going to do a scene from Tony Kushner's play "Angels in America."
What clubs/activities does everyone do?
As you could probably guess, I'm heavily involved in the theatre department, haha. I'm currently in the Winter Mainstage (A Streetcar Named Desire). And I'm also in SMuT (Student Musical Theatre), and we are currently in the process of deciding what musical to perform this spring. I'm also in the Catholic Mass Choir too.
My main extracurriculars are chamber singers and chorale, which are auditioned women's and mixed choirs (although I get credit for them as classes.....they're part of my major requirements, actually!) We sing great music and have an awesome choir director, so it's easily my fave part of each day! I'm also a member of ACDA (American Choral Directors' Association), and we plan workshops/social events for the music dept. throughout the year. The group also usually goes to the ACDA convention every year.
and i'll check back in later!My life is pretty much consumed by being a music major...but I love it!
).... and i personally loved how they ended it.. im not going to spoil it, but i will say that they slap you across the face with a reality stick (which is why a lot of people hate it.. its not your typical movie)... all in all, this is one of my fav films in a while... its very different, and its NOT for everyone... just know that if your sensitive to motion, you will get sick.. and that the film was made entirely from the victims perspective, so youll have a lot of questions unanswered about the monsters background and such (you only know what the victims know)... but imo, the mystery behind the monster just makes it scarier and more fun to think about, even when the movie is over
That's awesome that you have a student musical theatre group! Did you do it last year/what musical did you do? I bet that's tons of fun. Keep us updated on what musical you decide to do in the spring!
Of course they had to fast-forward through through the whole Touch Me part but everything else I loved, and I used to run around my grandma's house singing "Hot patootie bless my soul, I really love that rock and roll!" I have the entire movie memorized and I even have a Rocky Horror 2008 calendar in my room. We saw it on Broadway when it was here around six years ago (and HATED it, they changed it too much ) and we go see it at midnight in a small theater in the village every once in a while, where all the Rocky Horror die hards and quiie a few drag queens show up to act it out on stage 
Same! I love how WDW is like a fantasy. When I'm there, it feels like I'm in a totally different world.When I hear the music from Spectro,Wishes, and Fantasmic I get goosebumps!

i love figment in epcot, and just looking at the castle (i love the architechure!), and walking through the grand floridian (not enough $ to stay there yet- hopefully next time!)
I also LOVE resort hopping. The Disney resorts are gorgeous, huge and full of a lot of really fun yet relaxing things to do. I love watching Wishes from hammocks on the Poly beach, playing ski ball at the Contemporary's game room, listening to the piano player at the Grand Floridian, taking in the atmosphere at the Beach Club, seeing the animals at the Animal Kingdom Lodge and waiting for the geyser at the Wilderness Lodge. I love the resorts!
Isn't it the best?!
What's your favorite Disney resort?
). I love walking in Animal Kingdom and actually feeling like I just entered a village in Africa. Most of all, I just love being a kid again.

Last year was the first 'actual' year of SMuT being a club on campus, as it was started Spring '06 by my friend. Our first full-length musical was in Spring '07, and it was Company. I was Kathy, and that show was one of my favorite shows I've worked on, ever.
Last semester we did Zombie Prom, but I didn't work on it, as I was stage manager for the fall mainstage and had zero time. lol
I believe this semester's choices are Working, Assassins, or I Love You Because.
We also do MuThru's (we listen to the soundtrack/read the script of a musical), karaoke nights, and an annual showing of Rocky Horror on Halloween.
SAME! well, specifically fantasmic, and i dont know if everyone else remembers but in epcot during like 2000-ish they had a parade called tapestry of dreams that was insanely wonderful. the music was incredible (i have the soundtrack and listen lol) and it was one with giant puppets that interacted with the crowd. Those two things (fantasmic and tapestry of dreams) are my all time favorite things.
but i love everything lol
My favorite Disney soundtrack of ALL TIME is the millenium celebration, with the illuminations music and the original tapestry of nations parade music! I didn't like tapestry of dreams as much, with all the voiceovers, but I LOVE the original, I really wish they'd bring it back! 
I always tear up, without fail, at the part when Peter Pan says, "I wish we'd never have to grow up......off to Never Land!" Aww I love it.
