You guys can re-add me at xdr0pdead. This time my journal is going to be friends-only. I was just getting kinda tired of the name, even if I am still into HPDM. XD

Re-add me, bitches. Do eet. (:

EDIT: Obviously if I know you from here you don't have to post a comment asking to be my friend. XD

You know, I'm sortakinda really sick of hearing about Michael Jackson this week.

Yeah, it was a huge deal and all, but I dunno. That's just me.

Gah.

I am WAY too excited about HP6, seriously.

Obviously, I haven't been much of a Harry Potter fanatic in at least a year, just due to different obsessions over time. But I went back and re-read some of the book a few days ago, and it totally got me hyped up again. (I think I'm gonna make a goal to re-read all of the books before the movie comes out.) Though, I'm also wondering how much is gonna be cut out of the movie.

I think the part I want to see the most is the Sectumsepmra scene (try saying that five times fast). I dunno. Every time I read about it, it always seemed to me like that would be the point where, after Sectumsempra almost killed him, Draco would start to mean way more to Harry. Or that could just be the inner fangirl talking. Who knows? All I know is that I adored this book.

Regardless, I'd still like that to be in there. Not only does it make just the most amazing HPDM scene ever (besides the obvious; i.e., the Fiendfyre, "I'll take you on anytime I want," said Malfoy. "Tonight, if you want.", etc.), but if they actually show all the blood described in the book, that'd be the coolest piece of shit ever.

So, my loves, which of your favorite parts are you hoping to see in the movie?

FINALLY.

Finally finally finally finally.

Oh my GOD.

A year. My mom banned LJ for a year. And she finally has some shred of trust for me again.

Tell me how you've all been while I've been away, I miss you all so much!!

♥,
Kristen

I finally managed to find that picture of my HSM birthday cake my mom made me. Yay!!

None of it was fondant, either, so it was all tasty (and really hard to make, I'd imagine).

AND. AND. AND.

I took pictures of my room and all it's Disney glory yesterday. For like, no apparent reason whatsoever. But my friend Sara got me bunches of HSM-related posters from magazines on her way back from camping, so I had to put them up and post.


And I stuck a Ryan sticker on my phone, because Lucas is just too fabulous not to pass up a chance to carry him around with you. :]


I am way too obsessed. xD 

Yay for new layout!!

I finally had the time to create a whole new layout. Kind of Christmas-y, looking back on it, but oh well. It's still wintertime. ;) And if anyone has some nice patterns that I could use for the background, I'd appreciate that, because the blue is so plain. x___x

I've never been so hooked on a dead character before, but I seriously love Angel. Dude, he totally killed Benny's dog; he's such a badass. xD

And God--I'm totally, completely, and utterly obsessed with RENT, if it wasn't obvious enough. I love HSM, but I absolutely adore RENT right now.

Oh yeah, because scots_in_kilts  is made of pure awesome, I now have the soundtracks!! So darling, I love you to pieces. Thanks so much. ♥

I FINALLY SAW RENT!!!

-spins in circles repeatedly- Ohmygod. I was ecstatic when I found it online. The quality sucked, but it still doesn't bring down that it's the best movie EVER. I even think it precedes High School Musical, at the moment. Now, with a huge surge of pride, I look at Jenwyn's banner and totally get it now. xD

And DUDE. She paired up all my favorite pairings. So like, Troy (Roger) is with Gabriella (Mimi), Ryan (Angel) is with Chad (Collins), which I absolutely love. It's so true 'cause Chad and Ryan will SO admit their love for each other by randomly bursting out into song on the streets like Collins and Angel did. ♥

Anyways, then there's Taylor (Joanne) and Sharpay (a PERFECT Maureen), and Jason (Mark) and Zeke (Benny), who're...uh, alone. xD But even so! It still so fits everybody. Except Zeke. 'Cause Zeke is a lovable, huggable soul who would be more than welcome to give people money instead of take it. And who bakes.

If you've seen it, I want to discuss it really badly. Like, reeeeeaally badly.

Now, if I could just finish Wicked, I can go find out if the show is coming to my city, and then I can be proud that I saw that, too! \o/

I GOT DUCK EARRINGS! \o/

My cousin didn't understand what was so important when I asked her for them, despite being HSM obsessed like me (not quite as much, but still).  If she ever found out...well, I'll just have to hide them. ;)


Now every time I wear them, I'm going to be thinking about Ryan.

This is awesome. <3 

I'm home. :D

And I missed people! I'm spending the night with Jessie, so I will check my F-page in a bit. =P

ILY. (And Hannah, I miss you. xD I'm not sure why, but every time a conversation came up about gay guys I think of you.)

I arrived. And now I'm here with my cousin. And various other relatives.

AND THERE'S INTERNET CONNECTION! \o/

Now I'm happy. :D

I'm going to Naples--which is a city about two hours away from where I live--to see my cousins, and there's no internet on the drive up there and I doubt the hotel room has wireless. Then I'm going to a party and won't be back to the hotel before midnight or one, so I won't be online probably for the rest of the weekend after that.

So if anybody has any fanfic recs, even your own, I can save them and read them in Word.

It doesn't matter if you think or know I've read them before, because I love re-reading stuff, especially fics from elvensorceress (I'm gathering all of Boy Disease now, so I have links to those already) and hannah_sheree. ♥

I'm leaving at about 2ish today, so as many as you can get in here would be awesome before then.

Leikomgwhoa.


Ohmy.

I was bored.

If you're bored, AIM SmarterChild. It's a bot, it keeps you busy! ;D

It's official--I have found some of the funniest / coolest / weirdest pictures of Lucas Grabeel on the net (well, to me, anyway).

Onward to the madness!

( Clicky... )

Ahhh. Lucas. ♥

Shamelessly stolen from poppyfields13. xD!

Step 1: Put your music player on shuffle.
Step 2: Post the first line or two from the first 37 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing.
Step 3: Strike through the songs when someone guesses both artist and track correctly
Step 4: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!
Step 5: If you like the game, post your own.

Okay, If you're on my friends list, most of you are bound to like HSM and *SHOULD* know some of these.

 

Double post FTW.

If you haven't already added High School Musical: Extended Edition to your Christmas list, I highly suggest you do so now. I got it for my birthday today, and good GOD.

It. Kicks. Ass.

It literally kicks ass. Like, watching it actually makes you want to get up and dance with them. All of the bonus features are amazing to watch, especially the rehearsal cam section. All of the actors and actresses singing and dancing and rehearsing to all of the songs in the movie; even rehearsals for "Humuhumunukunukuapua'a" are in there. And Christ, watching the rehearsals to "I Don't Dance" just...gah.

Corbin and Lucas have more enthusiasm during the rehearsals than in the movie, surprisingly. And they also rehearse in a little dance studio, so when Kenny's teaching them the choreography, the boys have to stand like right next to each other so they can see the other person and know when to move next. They're literally throwing themselves at each other. It was insane.

Oh, Corbin's smiling the whole time, too.

'Tis all. ♥

Do you know what really pisses me off?

It’s when someone you consider a friend begins questioning their friendship with you after discovering that you stand up for something they hate.

For example: homosexuals.

I highly support gay marriage and my AIM icon at the moment is this:



My supposed “friend” has a problem with this icon and that bothers me.

I find absolutely nothing wrong with gay marriage or homosexual relationships. If you love somebody and you’re happy with that person, who cares what gender you are? Love isn’t about race, age, weight, height, religion, gender, etc. It’s about caring for someone and wanting to make that person happy no matter what the cost. It’s about sacrificing what you have for another or spending your whole life with someone whom you gave your heart to.

It’s about love–nothing more, nothing less.

I can’t see why people have a problem with this.

I’m a Christian but also a bisexual. People commonly use excuses such as “God hates homosexuals” and “being gay is against the bible”, but this is wrong.

First of all, God does not hate anyone. He does not hate any living organism on earth. They’re all his creations and he loves every single one of them equally. He might not approve of our actions but he does not hate us. God is a loving and forgiving being and he gives everyone a chance.

It is true that the bible states that being gay is wrong and not true to nature; the circle of life consists of a man loving a woman (vice versa), them becoming betrothed, bedded and then the woman conceives. That does explain why most religious people have a problem with this but to be honest, no one’s forcing them to support gay marriage. Everyone should have the decency to respect other people’s decisions.

In the past, people believed interracial interaction and communication was wrong and yet here we are, freely bonding with different races. If we show people that we’re not hostile and publicly display our affections to whomever we love openly, then maybe people will begin to accept same sex couples rather than put them down.

“Against the laws of the bible and Christianity”? Don’t they realize that not everyone is Christian?



Expressing your opinion is one thing but campaigning with such horrible–and especially hurtful–signs such as GOD HATES FAGS and THANK GOD FOR AIDS? You can support whatever you want freely but do it reasonably. If you truly are Christian then you should know that the most well known verse in the bible states “For God so loved the world...”, not ”For God so loved the world, except homosexuals...”. Nothing implies that God wants you to insult other people who are different from you.

Other people’s feelings are important to me whether I know them or not. By putting down others, you’re putting down yourself.

If you choose to resort to rude and insulting names then fine, I’m damn proud to be a fag. I will stand up for what I believe in.

Gay people are human beings just like everyone else. If you disagree with their existence then for goodness sake, just let it go. Hate gets you nowhere and you’re not doing anyone good by hurting their feelings. Love is love.

Homophobia is wrong. Do your part to end it.

I've seen icons and wallpapers and banners and shit of this, and I've never EVER come across this video before!!!

-faint-

OMG, he's gay. He's actually gay. The greatest wizard of all time is a homo-friggin-sexual! I could not be any more happier. My mom was all, "She's so stupid! How could she do something like that? What an idiot." Whereas I'm in my room skipping around in glee and cursing out my mom for disrespecting Jo.

Seriously, though, Dumbledore/Grindelwald? I saw it coming when I read Skeeter's article, to be honest, but it being actually canon just BLEW my mind.

How much do you wanna bet that Harry Potter fans all over the world are now picking up their copies of The Deathly Hallows and re-reading them, now?

Ahh, so wonderful. :D

I ♥ J.K. Rowling!
