What news source do you use most often?


View other answers

I use CNN as a news source, because it's trustworthy. I know that  will get the facts and not some lame media lies. When other news sources and radio stations were reporting that Michael Jackson had passed away, I waited until CNN confirmed it before I believed it.

I am stressed as mother fucker man! I'm so ready to start the new phase of my life that it's gotten to the point where I just don't give a fuck. You know?

My family thinks that I'm trying to break away from them and maybe that's true. You just get to a point in your life where you feel like you don't need to listen to anyone but yourself. That may be a horrible thing to think and it may bite me in the ass, but I don't really care about the consequences.

Shit, I want to be free of everything. No, I'm not going to kill myself, I'm long passed that dramatic stage in my life. I'm sooo not going back, because it'll just make things even more worse and complicated. I don't know what to do with myself right now, all I know is that I can't be in Maryland anymore.

When, I was younger, I was like "I never want to leave Maryland! I feel so comfortable here." Now that's not the case. It's really awkward and aggravating to be in a place that seems to be holding you back. I don't know if going to Pennsylvania for college will help me "spread my wings" but I'm more that willing to find out.

I am moving 2 hours away from my family. At this point, people would think that I'm getting nervous because I only have roughly 3 more months in the place where I've lived my 18 years of life, but...I'm not. Is that sad? Is that wrong? Am I just being a bitch?

Hell if I know.

Lord, what is wrong with me? Maybe I'm just reacting to all of the shit that has been going down these last few months (constant arguements w/ the moms and sister, just plain ol' stress etc.) and when I get to Albright in August, I'm going to miss the hell out of this place.

Or maybe what I'm feeling will still be the same in 3 months? Who knows? 

But, let sum up this whole thing bluntly for you: 

I'm just ready to move the fuck on...

An Update of Sorts...

  • May. 25th, 2009 at 9:26 AM

Ok, so I've finally completed High School! Whoo! My last day was the 22nd and I was so happy. :) I graduate in 8 days, it's going to be sad, but man am I ready to start my new life.

So...Kris Allen won American Idol. That's ok, because Adam Lambert will do better because he didn't win. I think Adam will make a way better album than Kris. Plus it really didn't matter who won because they're both talented and I'm glad the glory wasn't stolen from Danny Gokey. Also, I'm more than convinced that Adam and Kris (Kradam) are together. Adam Lambert kissed Kriss Allen ladies and gentleman. I know it was a little peck on the head, but still. I'm a fan girl and that was more than enough for me. Also, did you see Kris give Adam a hug attack from behind. It was so cute. Adam was talking about Kris to a reporter (all nice things of course) and Kris comes out of nowhere and hugs Adam fiercely from behind. EEEK! I so love them.

DUMP THE WIFE KRIS AND GO TO ADAM!!!! hahaha!

Is it me, or is RP fanfiction better than regular fanfiction? 

Kradam FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • May. 14th, 2009 at 6:20 AM

OMG! Kris Allen and Adam Lambert are in the final two of American Idol! I know there is major boy on boy loving going on in the Idol Mansion right now. lol! I mean come on! Those two totally have something going on. Kris has one painted black thumb nail and Adam  has all of his fingers painted except for one thumb. There is a pic of them putting their thumbs together! They are so cute! They're in love. Kris needs to dump that wife of his. He's too young to be settled down. At 22, you should be hanging at bars! 

 I'm so exctied! I hope Adam wins next week.

So...I graduate from high school in a little over 3 weeks and my last day of school is in 10 school days. It's coming...really fast. It's so strange to be 18 and getting ready to start the next chapter of my life. I can remember when I was 10 years old. I remember being home, watching cartoons (I still do!), playing with my barbies, watching Mary-Kate and Ashley movies, doing dumb easy school work and having no worries in the world. Now, I'm an adult and I have to actually learn how to care for myself. I'll still have my mom's support, but the idea of doing it mostly by myself is scary.

I'm going to miss high school. I'm going to miss the wonderful people that I've grown to love for the past 4 years or more. We're all going in our separate directions. My best friend is staying in Maryland, while I'm going to Pennsylvania. Some people are going down south, while others are staying in the crappy town that we live in. I knew that the time would come for us to move on, but when you're 15, it seems so far away. But time really does fly.

On August 27th, I'll be packing up my mom's car and my grandma's truck and heading up north to PA. It's going to be exciting, but I'll probably cry once we pull out of my driveway.

So, here is a toast to the people who knew me all too well. A toast to those who were there for me and accepted me for who I am/was. A toast to those who I'll never forget even though I'll probably never see them again.

Cheers.

The mom from "The Parent Trap." She was so sweet and caring!

The most annoying sound in the world is the sound people make when they eat anything squishy. Like bananas. It's sort of like a smacking sound. It's annoying and makes me cringe.

Writer's Block: You Don't Know Me

Our friends don't always know us as well as they think, particularly when it comes to likes and dislikes. Which popular book, movie, band, food, TV show, etc. would your friends be surprised to hear that you don't like?


View other answers

I think my friends would be shocked to know that I don't like everything that comes out of Disney Channel. I can't stand some of the stars that are on that channel. I have a love/hate relationship with the Jonas Brothers and Miley Cyrus.

At my school people call me "Disney Channel." But I do hate some things on the network.


What's up livejournal! In just a month I will be walking across a stage and receiving my high school diploma. I'm so excited! It's been a long journey and I'm glad that it's ending because I get to start the next part of my life: College!

I got accepted to the only school I applied for; Albright College in Reading, PA.  As soon as I walked on the campus I knew that was the only school that would make me happy. The people are amazing and the environment is very friendly and safe.

The school has given me $82,000 in scholarships and after I got my financial aid back, I found out that I'd only be paying $5,000 a year out of pocket. That's not bad.

The scholarships I got were based on merit and talent. Here's a little breakdown:

Provost Scholarship (merit): $50,000
Coleman Award: $16,000
Theater Award (I auditioned for this on a whim! I didn't have a monologue to do, so I wrote one on the spot!): $8,000
Music Award (singing): $8,000

So I'm set! 

Oh! At graduation, I will be singing "The Climb" by Miley Cyrus. I know not a lot of people like her, but the song is so meaningful for a time like this. I hope my fellow graduates can see past the singer and listen to the meaning.

How do you feel about Pluto's recent demotion? Should it still be a planet?


View other answers

It's weird to think that Pluto is no longer one of the nine planets. Growing up (I'm almost 18) I learned about the 9 planets and the sun. They even had a fun a little acronym to remember them. 

My Very Eduacated Mother Just Showed Us Nine Planets 
or
My Very Excellent Mother Just Sent Us Nine Pizzas

or however you learned it. 

I hope schools aren't using old science books. They'll be teaching wrong info. pssh! But hey, that doesn't stop history teachers.

 It's not really a nervous habit, but it is quite odd. Whenever I get food, I have to smell it. It's just something that I've been doing since I was little. I get a little comfort that I'm eating something good when I smell it. lol!

 If I was God for a day, I would: 

1) Provide quality universal health care

Who introduced you to LiveJournal? Why did you first open an account or get involved?


View other answers



 No one really introduced me to LiveJournal. While I was on fanfiction.net, I noticed that most people would say that a certain chapter could be found on the site (livejournal) and I just wandered over here. I lurked for a long time, browsing communities and reading numerous fanfictions from my favorite fandoms and then one day I decided to stop being lazy and make an account. I love blogging, so that's a huge plus!

Camp Rock? More like HSM wannabe.

  • Jun. 19th, 2008 at 6:26 PM

So, tomorrow I'm going over to my friend's house for the premier of the new Disney Channel Original Movie (DCOM), Camp Rock, starring the Jonas Brothers (Nick, Kevin and Joe Jonas) and Demi Lovato and a few other obscure Disney Channel stars. Disney is making a huge deal out of it, like it's the next High School Musical. 

Disney already has junior novels, clothing, accessories etc. out on the market (Wal-Mart, Limited Too and Claires) and the movie hasn't even come on yet. I have a feeling that Disney is going to milk the hell out this just like they're doing the High School Musical, Hannah Montana and Cheetah Girls franchise. It's just their nature. 

Demi Lovato is certain to be the next Disney Princess and is going to knock Miley Cyrus out of the spotlight for a while. 

I only like 2 songs so far and that's "This Is Me" sung by Demi Lovato and Joe Jonas and "We Rock" sung by the Camp Rock cast. That's kind of bad in my book. When I heard the HSM 2 soundtrack a few weeks before it came on I loved just about every track. Maybe it's because I don't like the Jonas Brothers so much. 


Well, we'll see how this goes. It'll most likely be popular as hell. Next for this made-for-tv-not-so-much-a-musical-movie: 30 city concert, 100 city Ice-Tour, a not needed sequel and a Broadway production. lol!

I love CSI and GSR!!!

  • Nov. 3rd, 2007 at 5:39 PM

CSI has to be the best show on right now. I'm so sad to see Jorja Fox/Sara Sidle leave the show. It won't be the same without her. They should have just killed her off in the season premier if she was planning on leaving. 

Check out CSI folks! Thursdays at 9pm on CBS. And on Spike Monday-Friday at 6pm and Sundays on Spike at 5pm.

Well, it's been a long time!

  • Aug. 11th, 2007 at 10:55 PM

I've totally neglected my journal. Gosh, I've just been busy. My great-grandma died about a month ago. She had been in the hospital since the day school let out (June 19th) and died July 10th. I was devastated. I haven't even started my summer assignments. I've just been in a slump. But I believe that everything that has happened has changed me a bit. I'm no longer the same April, that I was a few months ago. I've grown up and matured a lot. 

I try to keep everything leveled...by writing of course. I haven't written much this summer...but what I have written has really shown my true talents. :) 

Ok...High School Musical 2 premiers Aug. 17th...that's next Friday and I'm beyond excited! I can't wait for it. I've listened to all of the new songs and they are great. I'm sure that I will post a full analysis of the movie the day after it premiers. 

Oh, I saw Hairspray and I loved every second of it. I believe that it did justice to the Broadway show. Zac Efron surprised me and he was a hottie in the film. Nikki Blonsky was adorable in the film and was a the perfect fit for Tracy Turnblad. The cast was wonderful! I walked out the of theater saying this "This was SO much better than the disaster that was RENT!"

Some lady looked at me like I was weird. lol!

So that's all for now.
