Reality is Just a Phase; Keep Dreaming

No this isn't about Repo for once. But I do feel like the still-beating heart has been ripped from my chest. What's worse is that I think I scared him off. I don't know how, but that's the only plausible explaination I have. ARGH! This is what I get for choosing such a nice person to go on a blind date with!

Ugh, it's times like this when I wish Repo Men were real. I'd gladly have him repossess my heart and brain so that I won't have to deal with a pounding chest and constant thinking of him.

It's been ages since I've posted, but I'm back now. I've been very busy these last few months with a little something called Repo! The Genetic Opera, the best movie since Suicide Club. More specifically, I've been involved in the SoCal Repo Army and Addicted To The Knife-or ATTacK for short-which is a group that shadowcasts Repo! once a month in L.A. at the Laemmle Sunset 5. Joining the SoCal Repo Army was just the beginning. I've met so many wonderful people because of the SoCal Army: Carolyn, Melissa, Tara, Lotte, Treasure, Dani and Dani, Amanda, Kylee, Falen, Ken, Zach, Bernie, Jennie, and Ana, just to name a few. And when it came to perform...well, I was honored to perform alongside them as a cast member. Did I know what I was signing up for? Yes. Was I aware that we would not be getting paid for doing this? Yes. Did I care? No. And did I, Sharon, ever dream a few years ago that I would now be a part of something this huge? No. And I definately don't regret it.

Including our guerilla performance(our test performance), we have performed 3 times now, and each performance is memorable. I have been a GENtern, wearing only a short white dress while fawning over a narcissistic womanizer, but also a white two-piece bikini style outfit while prancing down the isles and dancing. I have been a SurGEN, replacing the face of the narcissistic womanizer while singing. I have been a dead body, flopping across the seat of an audience member as GraveRobber extracts Zydrate from a corpse. I have been a ghostly portrait of Nathan's wife Marni, tormenting Nathan as he laments his double life as Repo Man. And I have been a Scalpel Slut, gathering in the alley with the others around GraveRobber and awaiting my turn to get a hit of Zydrate. Though my parts may not be huge, I still love being a part of ATTacK and performing alongside my cast members. And I hope to stay with these wonderful people for a long while. For those of you who haven't seen us, I hope one day you will come. It's well worth it.

so i just found out today that one of my best friends dropped out of school. now, if he and i hung out together regularly, this wouldn't matter. well, it would, but not as much. but since we normally don't hang out together outside of school, this could potentially mean that i will never see him again. and that thought depresses me to no end.

okay, so i was bored and i decided to search Wikipedia. however, when i got to the main page, i found THE stupidest article ever, titled "Religious Debates Over Harry Potter." i'm not kidding. now, don't get me wrong, i don't have a problem against religious people. but when they start attacking THE BEST BOOK/MOVIE SERIES EVER CREATED and trying to look for reasons why it's evil, i wonder about their sanity. there have actually been LAWSUITS over this, all because the religious mommies and daddies are afraid that the little kiddies are going to learn witchcraft, Wicca, Satanism, etc. from reading Harry Potter. my answer to such deluded people: "honestly, people, it's a FANTASY book. FANTASY! do you know what the word FANTASY means? it means NOT REAL!" of course it's gonna have magic, witches, wizards, etc. in it. what fantasy book DOESN'T have any or all of them in it? the people who have condemned the best book and movie series on Earth because of this should really rethink their priorities.

as for me, any one who knows me very well should know that i practically worship the series.

Major cleaning to do today. i'll be cleaning my entire room, which, i'm sad to admit, is sorta messy. well, i'd still put off cleaning it, but then the unimaginable happened: my dad made me an offer i simply couldn't refuse. he told me that he would move his computer to my room once it's clean. so, with my own computer as my incentive...well, you can see why i couldn't refuse, right? so now, i'm off to clean!

Yeah, i know i was supposed to write about this sooner, but i was so busy. so friday the 23rd was my and James's 2 1/2 year anniversary, and we spent it by buying each other gifts because it also happened to be Black Friday. I bought him a game(Jam Session), a Dane Cook CD, and the King Kong movie. He bought me a new watch, the Ratatouille movie, and Final Fantasy III. if we had more money though, i think we would have bought more stuff.

Sunday was  Dot's birthday, so she and her family invited me to go out to dinner at Sammy's with them. god, the food was good. and her birthday cake was delicious.

well, there's a fire here in San Diego. actually, there's like 8 fires. but i'm guessing a lot of people know that already. this really sucks cuz i can't go to school. this is very bad, because i don't wanna miss school. i like this school!

yes, you guys read correctly. i like my school. why? because i am finally fulfilling my dream of becoming a chef by attending that school. i really hope it's okay to start travelling soon.

does anyone know where to buy the original Les Miserables musical???

well, i'm back again. i just gave my LJ a new makeover. and it's obvious to see what my new obsession is. yup, that's right! i'm a Phoenix Wright fan now. now, what do i write about...?

for starters, i'm seriously considering attending the Art Institute of California in San Diego for their culinary program, cuz i think i've found my calling in life and that's cooking. so i'm really pleased with that decision. the real bummer is that the tuition is major expensive so i'm gonna seriously need financial aid to get me through this.

i'm still trying to save up to move out with James, which still isn't making much progress, but with the hours i've been working, i think i'll be able to scrape up a good few hundred dollars.

i haven't updated in forever. what's there to say, anyway? hmmm. well things with James are going really well. we're not fighting so much anymore. so that's good. i got my hair cut today too. it now reaches roughly around the top of my neck. and i also got brown and red highlights. not auburn red. more like Ariel red. as in Ariel from Little Mermaid. yeah, that kind of red. i love it!

now for a more gloomy tone...i think my friends and i are starting to drift apart. no, who am i kidding? i KNOW we're drifting apart. i haven't had a proper day/night out with ANY of my friends for months. i try to talk to them, but they never get back to me. if they ever do, we don't really have much to talk about. of course, i know everyone's been busy, but i really can't believe they'd be too busy to talk even just a little. *sigh* maybe i, too, should just move on...

*sigh* god, i feel so emo right now...
