Mandy...


I love Mandy. Patinkin. Really. I mean, I love Robert. But I love Mandy Patinkin. His voice is phenomenal. And it makes him *so* attractive. Really.



Where is my love coming from?
Well I've always loved him in "The Secret Garden" as Archibald Craven. I mean, Lily was/is my dream role. And he plays her opposite. And he's beautiful on the CD of the show.








But the other night, at my friend Taylor's appartment, we watched a fantastic show. "Sunday in the Park with George." I don't know how many of you are familar with this show, but it's about Georges Seurat when he was painting Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte. And Mr. Patinkin is glorious. If you have never heard this show, go find it now.


Just...trust me. You'll love it.

Also in this show is the wonderful Bernadette Peters. Now I have had my healthy respect for this lady, and every theater student should. She's fantastic. But after seeing her in this, I LOVE her. Her voice, which has sounded annoying and ugly to me before is actually beautiful and stirring. In songs like "We Never Belonged Together" and "Move On" she is just haunting. I just love her.

So there you go. The two goals of my life are to sound like Burnadette Peters and sing a duet with Mandy Patinkin. I just...don't even know. But there is my current obsession.

I love you all for reading this.

And I'll love you more for knowing this show!

Yo ho yo ho a college life for me.


Well. I'm still in Rock Springs. And it's still suck-tastic. Well, it's better than that. I've been to classes now and it's loads of fun. Doing theater all day makes me feel guilty. Like I should be doing something else. But I shouldn't! This is what I'm doing up here and that a grand thought. And it's a very talented group of professors I'm working with. So even though this place breaks my heart every day, I'm blessed to be here.

That is why I've written a list of things I'm grateful for over there...--->

Inspired by Katie.

I feel like a lot more things should be inspired by Katie. She really is one of the greatest people I've ever met. She is the kindest, most sincere person I know. And she's always striving to be better, which amazes me. She is so open minded and thoughtful and really not afraid of anything. She's one of those people I wish I could be more like. If more people were like her, this would be an amazing world.
And that is a picture of us up there. Because we are just attractive..

Well. I love you all. Even if you don't think I do. I'm sure I do.
Especially you Katie.
And Rob. Especially you two.

College at this point.

Hello from college everyone!!! Rock Springs is still a windy, rocky, barren, land of nothing. But I'm here now. So it's a windy, rocky, barren, land of me. Which isn't an improvement. So far college is a lot like high school. We started off orientation day with an assembly. It was just the incoming freshmen and new students, so we all fit into the theater. It was like every other assembly I'd ever seen. With student government skits and everything. They were sort of like "Here is college and here is what we want to tell you" skits. Which in high school is like "the bathrooms are here" and "don't worry, you *will* make friends." But in college it's like "Avoid date rape" and "Don't get an STD!" It was really...special. After that was done, we disperssed.We went to different classrooms depending on whatever color a sticker on your bag was. Mine was orange. So I went to the orange room. And there were two teachers in there. And they talked. Which was like high school when the counseling office comes into your english class and asks you what you want to do with your life and then they tell you what their 'hopes and dreams' for you are and you play stupid games. Yeah. We even played that game where they stick a famous person's name on your back and you have to ask questions to figure out who you are. I was Johnny Depp. I know. Awesome. Sort of. We played games from ten twenty till twelve twenty. It was a little to much inspirational modivation for me. I started tuning them out. Hmmm...i'm tired...and it's midnight. And I have class at eight. And auditions...so...night!

Burning city of FIRE!!! And God bless it.

Okay. St. George isn't currently burning and on fire. But this one time I was here, it was. There was a circle of burning wildfires all around the valley. And do you know why? Because it was so freaking hot. Like, seriously. The bushes and shrubs couldn't take it, so they just burst into flames. This is no laughing matter friends. It's hot. Outside that is. Everywhere else it's freezing! Every store has the AC up to full blast. We went to Iron Man this afternoon-awesome by the way-and I was freezing.

Can I just say how much I love the Olympics. Watching good, hardworking, American athletes representing our country to the world just makes me so proud to live in this wonderful, God-blessed country! As Rob pointed out on Tuesday, we are so lucky to be born here. Especially as members of the church. To be *born* LDS is an amazing thing, but to be born LDS in America is even more amazing. The freedoms and liberties we enjoy here can hardly be recognized by us, but those who look at us from other parts of the world can fully appreciate it.

Talking about America makes me think of politics. Which makes me thing of the Presidental race. Which makes me want to make a poll. Look for it on the sidebar. over there =>>>>

P.S. Leave your opinions and comments on the poll in comments on this post! I'm *VERY* interested.

I hate my birthday. That's right.

I hate it. It's so embarrassing! People sing to you and give you gifts and make a big deal over you and all you was be...get...born! *Everyone* does that. Everyone. So why should I even have a party?
It's just a bad idea.
And what if no one even comes? What if everyone comes and they think it's stupid? What if no one even has fun at all? See? So many things could go wrong!! What if everything does go wrong?
I'm not even that cool anyways. No one will want to come.

Oh no. I just sent the facebook invitations.
This isn't going to be good.
