confused
Ok, everything they say about us girls is true. At least, it is for some. One being Jenn, whom I mentioned two posts ago. So she's been claiming not to like Tyler, saying that he's not attractive to her. Well, she was telling the truth about the second part; she doesn't find him good looking, but all this time she HAS liked him and has just been denying it because, well, I don't freakin' know why! I'm SO glad I'm not a typical girl because now I see how confusing it is to the guys. I'm confused myself, and I AM a girl! X.X
All I know is that she DOES like him, and he obviously likes her, so, another perfectly nice and attractive guy is now off limits. So that's it then. I'll just stop liking guys. That way, I won't be crushed when they start dating my hot roommate.
I'm allowed to cry now, right?

Blast!
No, I'm not upset, this is the sweet part of tonight. I don't know if any of you have heard of the Broadway production called Blast!, but that is indeed what it was. Taken from
Broadway In Chicago's site:
"BLAST! is comprised of 60 brass, percussion and visual performers brought together in a unique explosion of music and theatre. Born on athletic fields across the nation, BLAST! is a novel art form evolved from the showmanship of outdoor pageantry. According to Bruce McCabe of the Boston Globe, "BLAST! is an exuberant 15-number show that doesn't falter while bridging the categories of classical, blues, jazz, rock n roll, and techno-pop music. BLAST! stands, blows, pounds marches and whirls with panache. It sent a full house into repeated bursts of cheering and applause."
They came here to BYU-I to perform for us, and it was absolutely amazing. :D It's like a drumline, marching band, colorguard, dance and all kinds of other stuff mixed into one. I have never seen or heard a better group of performers who can be as mobile as if they didn't have an instrument in their hands, let alone actually playing one at the same time! The snare solo was one of my favorite parts; the guy could balance one stick between two fingers, on his elbow, shoulder, and even his ear while using the other to bounce it up and down as if he were playing normally. :o The lighting was also spectacular, and the choreography was ingenius. They were chucking flags from one end of the stage to the other multiple times without dropping it more than like once! They even sang at one point, and the basses gave me goosebumps. What a superbly talented group of people. Normally, tickets for this thing are like $25 minimum, but they were only $6 for us students. I would be willing to pay the full price to see it again sometime. It truly was unique and fun and unlike anything I've ever seen.
the rant
Ok, I'll start with the bitter and then get to the sweet. What is it with people always going after the people that are out of their league or completely disinterested and not seeming to have a clue that it just isn't going to happen? Why do perfectly nice guys go after the ditzy blondes who are playing hard-to-get with the pretty boy at the time? The nice guy in this scenario is my FHE bro and friend
Tyler, who I think is really cute and sweet and definitely fun. The ditzy blonde is my roommate and friend
Jenn, who claims to "just not be attracted to him," when in fact the only reason she refuses to like him more than a friend is because she's infatuated with our "cuter" FHE bro
Josh, who is a big flirt and basically a player, who, oddly enough, is also going after people who don't seem to share his affection despite his good looks. I'm just a tad bit bitter because not only do I like Tyler, but so many other girls do, and he's hung up on the one, ditzy, shallow girl who doesn't. Now, I love Jennifer so much, and she's so sweet and fun to be around, but she is constantly denying her feelings for Josh while obviously denying everyone else but him. And Josh just flirts away with everyone, while Jenn takes anything he does with her as a special case.
Argh. Where is my knight in shining armor already?! I've had enough heartache to last me until eternity! -_-
Charlotte's Web
So, Walden Media and Nickelodeon Movies are making a live-action version of the book with an all star cast. Dakota Fanning is the little girl, Fern, Julia Roberts is voicing Charlotte, Steve Buscemi as Templeton, John Cleese as a sheep, Oprah as mother goose, Cedric the Entertainer as papa goose, Robert Redford as a horse, and Thomas Haden Church as a raven. Good stuff...one of my favorite stories, and Walden Media did Narnia so this should be pretty good too.
