~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

let me start by saying two things. number one...
*flapping her hands at nothing* i'm sorry for not posting! i've been busy...
and number two. i have waaaaay too many things to talk about this time so this post might seem way too long. sorry and i hope you all get through it. so let's move on with the weather report brought to you by marvelous me!
*wearing a weatherman coat* currently it is 75 degrees and partly cloudy.
so what's new by me? well, i made a new blog!
*heavy sigh* yeah, i know. i probably don't need another one.
but this one is for my short stories! you can go to it here for more details...
*cheesy smile* yeah, i haven't posted yet...
well, i wrote a whole story but then i hated it and i got rid of it. sorry guys! i'll post something up there soon.
*tapping her chin thoughtfully* other news...
EGAD! oh yes! i missed the dollhouse season finale because of my DVR!
*sobbing* nooooo!!
and i asked the crazy v's because they watch it to (just another love of mine for them to ruin for me) and they started talking at the same time and all i could make it is "dr. claire is a doll!"
*blank stare, cold breeze* i already knew that...
so alas and alack, i have no idea how things resolved on dollhouse. so sad.
*sobs again* and they announced that terminator: the sarah connor chronicles isn't getting renewed. anti-glee...
i haven't gotten a chance to watch it, but glee is on my DVR for me and LP's future veiwing.
*rain cloud overhead* oh gosh, trying to think of happy news is surprisingly difficult...
ooh! i watched the season finale of supernatural and that rocked seriously hard.
*makes a heart with her hands* love my winchester boys!
also i'm way happy that DCas is feeling better now! i was gonna email her the instructions on how to change her commenting format because i know how to have a coolio background and still have functioning comments.
*points to devin caster* email me at anastasiaatthepiggery@gmail.com young lady!
and she was saying how much adam lambert inspired her. i won't steal him from her, but i too was inspired by adam. i'm thinking about taking a serious career path in theater, musical or non-musical.
*happy sigh* but adam has helped me shake the dust off that dream
i'm still an adam fan. always was. i wasn't be upset that kris won, because he's really amazing in his own right, but i'm still an adam fan till death.
*gasps* and of course kradam!
what is kradam you ask? the romantic pairing of kris allen and adam lambert of course!
*nodding, proud of herself* they're the new cookstro!
but seriously, i love them as a pairing beyond belief! you can check me out at..
*rainbow overhead* only the best place on the web! kradam.com!
yesh, i actually have a sign in and a profile and stuff! i'll put the link on my sidebar.
*heavy sigh* but before we get too far from american idol, let me get in a quick word.
i love adam lambert. i really like kris allen. i couldn't lose. almost all of the guest performances were mind numbingly sexy. except for those featuring anoop desai. it was a great idol finale.
*sniffling* i cried. no really.
not because i was sad that adam lost. because it was by far my favorite season of idol and i'm completely heartbroken that it's over.
*reaching at the TV* noooo! come back season 8!
more than half of the blogs i follow posted about idol though, and soon enough LP will post a full report about idol here and we'll probably up up talking about it on box.
*sticks out her tongue* that's short for anastasia and lily-pagan's box of chocolates.
well, whenever i post about american idol i get about 8 crayons and whenever i post about homeschooling i get about 1 crayon so it's pretty obvious what i should talk about if i want crayons.
*rolls her eyes* but there's way too much to cover!
i have to get a word in about the epic creative writing battle. well...
*sitting in a rocking chair with a dusty book* there once were too girls named anastasia and lily-pagan...
we're homeschooled. and please don't ask me what i'm doing about college! because that's what every single person i tell i'm homeschooled asks me.
*anime pulse overhead* i'm gonna GO to college! that's what i'm gonna do!
but anyway, we take a class is creative writing because as you know, we love to write. we have it with june and chrissy who are really awesome. i call chrissy chirp. and kyle and david. kyle is june's brother and david is this really nice guy who's friends with kyle. and of course...
*ice cold wind blows by* crazy victoria and crazy vanessa.
crazy vanessa is my little fan girl. she follows me around and repeats all my catchphrases.
*air quotes* "hey love" and "dear lawd" being two of them.
she's not THAT bad. she's not a crazy obsesses-er the way victoria is. she's just really energetic i guess.
*eye twitches* i sympathize a lot more with her.
so anywho, the teacher emailed our parents and said that there were some people in the class who annoyed her and her wanted to kick them out basically.
*snarls* seriously, julie! grow a set!
she's so unprofessional. it irks me. grr... so in the email it was really obvious that she was talking about me, LP, and the crazy sisters. so we had to be extra quiet this week so she didn't kick us out.
*shrugs* the crazy V's i can live without but not my writing.
so we came into the center (it's in an old school) and of course i was wise and brought my sunglasses. why did this help?
*laughs* because then crazy victoria couldn't tell if i was making eye contact or not!
she always tries to talk to me while i'm in the middle of something but she gets pissed if i don't look directly at her. sunglasses to the rescue!
*clears her throat* anyway.
lucky lily-pagan got to sit next to june and chrissy because she came in the other door to the room but i was stuck with crazy victoria.
*reaching for LP* come back to me!
i did some good writing and maybe i'll continue one of them for 18 Days. but crazy victoria kept writing about adam. and i was like "hey! ass munch! didn't you get the email? it said inside jokes piss her off!"
*snarls again* of course julie (the teacher) doesn't have to balls to kick anyone out.
but victoria kept saying "oh, well, this will make sense to SOME people..." and then she read "he had weird things that looked like cages on his shoulders."
*jaw drops* hey! genius! only lady gaga and adam wear cages on their shoulders! i'll give you a ZERO for creativity!
it was horrible. she a bad writer, too. and now she thinks she can write songs. and she's tonedeaf.
*smiles enthusiastically* it just keeps getting better, doesn't it?
but the goods news is that we didn't get kicked out and i got some good starts. so overall i guess it was a win.
*looks up at the post* err... i think that was long enough.
it doesn't seem like it, but i guess it is. i'll just get to the watch-see-hear.
*opening a letter like on the oscars* and the must watch-see-hear goes to...
GLEE!!! i haven't actually watched it yet but it is going to be amazing!
*Totoro smile* i LOVE shows about the workings of a theater group!
you always have the jock that is a really good singer and dancer and the prima dona who everyone puts up with because they're amazing and the queen who can't stand the prima dona. it's great.
*Uncle Sam point* that's why i want YOU to watch GLEE!
well, i should be posting soon because i forgot how much i loved posting but i still have to post on 18 Days and maybe me and LP will post on box because she's coming over later.
*peace sign* ciao! hope everyone's doing okay!

live, love, taking back sunday
anastasia<3:)

PS: sorry, i still love idol! i just didn't want to do all the works about the finale!
PSS: did anyone else read that story about how gene simmons was a bitch to adam and said he didn't have the chops to sing rock? gene simmons is a bitch! adam was a great voice and he totally sings Kiss better that you, gene simmons!
PSSS: picture of me with the the post. you can see my brown hair! yes, my hair is actually black but you can sometimes see brown lowlights in the sun. x3

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

who's the slacker blogger??
*waving excitedly* i am! i am!
yesh, alas and alack, i haven't posted in FOREVER.
*fanning herself* sorry all my beloved followers!
well, well, well. i actually have random crap to say so let's get on with the weather report.
*wearing a weatherman jacket* it's 57 degrees and pouring rain in luray, tonight folks.
i have no idea when the rain is gonna let up... it's been raining all day...
*looking sadly out the window, sighs* so sad...
so let's back track to last friday. i have to get a word in...
*reaching at the screen in horror* VICTOR!!! NOOOOO!!!
yesh, alpha made a long awaited appearance on dollhouse on friday. but how did we know it was alpha? well he's pretty much evil and slashes people's faces with a blade like zoro.
*jaw drops in utter horror* but he slashed victor's face!!
he didn't die which was almost worse because then he was just on the ground crying and covering his face for the rest of the scene... dammit, joss whedon!
*snarls* and further more!
it just flat out sucked to be victor for that episode. the first time you saw him they imprinted
him with lawrence dominic (who i miss, personally) and he was strapped into the chair.
*makes a face as if to say "yikes"* that sucks...
and then ballard and boyd broke his pod and they were "fighting on him" and the poor dear was shrieking in horror and seemed traumatized!
*sexy actor glasses swip* but what did we learn from this weeks dollhouse?
dr. saunders might be a doll herself!!
*gasp* no! it can't be!
yeah, it took me a couple times and a few minutes after of deep thinking to figure that one out...
*flips her hair* let me show off my skills.
when victor is imprinted with dominic, he looks over at claire helplessly and says "whiskey." now, since all the dolls names are based on letters of the alphabet, it's likely that claire is the W! which would explain why alpha spared her. also when alpha asked if she's always wanted to be a doctor and she says yes, her snarls "that's not true." maybe because she's a doll!!
*Logan Jay/Kris point* mad skills, right?
yesh, that was truly dollhouse fanatic of me...
*flapping her hands at nothing* but let's skip to what's important here!
tonight and last night were american idol nights! rock week with...
*sudden air guitar, sticks out her tongue* SLASH!!!
i'm a fan of guns & roses and velvet revolver so slash is on my good side. so i was psyched about this week. which totally delivered. adam sang led zeppelin and in the words of my ma "how many things can "every inch of my love" and "a whole lot of love" mean??" adam got it! he was totally sexed up and in one of his moods! oh my gawd! so sexy last night x3
*leans closer and gives him puppy dog eyes* please?
ah-hem... LP gets it. INSIDE JOKE! sorry, moving on...
*gasps excitedly* the kris and danny duet!
yeah, they did duets but they were good so pish posh. kris and danny did 'renegade' which i was really nervous about but i really liked it and kris looked really hawt. it's a win win!
*tapping her chin thoughtfully* actually, kris looked mind numbingly yummy all night...
that's what SHE said! yesh, bet you didn't know i'm a "that's what she said" joke person. sorry! i'm a bit of a perv...
*drooling, panting* well as long as i'm being perverted...
allison and adam did a duet which was really really good. and they have a great dynamic. they could totally record something together. but did you see adam's pants??? skintight. striped. pants. oh my gawd! yum!
*thumbs up* plus me and LP support the pairing of adam and allison. shweet.
but let's get onto the results show before i talk too much about adam last night...
*sad face* the results were depressing... but that's later.
the ford commercial was 100% lame. eh. maybe 90% because adam hair was absolutely terrific. i loved it. weird... the guest performers were paula abdul, daughtry and no doubt.
*looks totally lost* i dunno what to say.
paula's was amazing choreographed and not so amazingly lip-synced. no doubt was so bizarre that i told my mom to fast forward through them and daughtry... chris daughtry is really good and i love daughtry. but i will admit they sound A LOT like shinedown.
*rolls her eyes in disgust* they sing 'second chance' for radio hoppers.
so the guest performances were okay. just a'ight as randy would say. but the cut was brutal and made me sad...
*boo boo lip* allison got cut. and she DID NOT deserve it.
but i'm trying to be optimistic so i don't wanna get into danny gokey. let's just say i really really hate him and really liked allison. idol performances were awesome but idol results were strange.
*poses victoriously* my homeschooling is going well, though!
GLEE! by the way, i think i'm gonna pick up watching glee. anyone else? anyway, victoria was really nice to me last thursday and friday but when i saw her again on monday she was back to being crazy and bitchy. and today she told me my headband was stupid.
*squeals like a wounded puppy* i had a headband in that queemo way on today...
but vanessa (her sister) was really nice to me the whole time. yay! i'm pretty sure i'm her idol because she follows me most places and picks up my catchphrases and such.
*Church lady face* I'm not just flattering myself.
i've been working a lot at a little local theater here so i've been kind of busting my butt all week. i'm pretty tired at this point. mebs. one of the theater classes i'm taking in run by that place so i'm acting there. i was in their summer camp which was... interesting...
*poses glamorously* i was in their production of Les Miserables.
er... the part i got is unimportant. i'm just happy to have it on my resume, you know? needless to say, i like acting. but i'm kinda a bad singer. i'm not TERRIBLE (i hope) but i'm by no means good.
*nodding, proud of herself* but seriously, i was sick when i auditioned for les miserables so i've kinda been telling myself that's why i got such a minor part.
gadzooks! look at the time! i better wrap things up! er... make shift!
*opening a letter like on the oscars, looking more nervous than usual* the must watch-see-hear goes to...
the bride wars! yesh, me and LP ordered it on netflix because she wanted to see it. i really didn't think i'd like it but it was coolio. plus bryan greenburg from one tree hill was in it so the first we saw him on screen i was like "it's jake!!" haha. it was fun anyway. we ended up throwing popcorn at each other and i got to wear my muffin pjs!!
*totoro smile* yes, i have pajamas with chibi muffins on them. be jealous...
so maybe it's just the good memories i made with lily-pagan by watching it but kate hudson rawks. so i would recommend it to anyone.
*uncle sam point* even you!
so anywho, i better skidaddle. i hope all of you are doing well! ta-ta for now! i'll post again soon!
*shifty eyes* or at least i'll try to...

live, love, nevershoutnever!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

hello again guys! another sorry stretch that i didn't post...
*melancholy sigh* so sad...
well things have actually started picking up around here so let's get the weather report out of the way...
*wearing a weatherman coat* currently, it is 47 degrees and cloudy in luray. hometown of anastasia zigantai.
yesh, i DID just refer to myself in third person!
*clears her throat* anyway... let's focus here!
yes, let's focus on what's really important here!
*excited squeal* idol night!
so let's get the business! it was disco night and admittedly i really hate disco and was a little pissed about the theme but it actually turned about pretty smoking hot!
*nodding, proud of herself* yes, i will admit i was wrong.
i won't give any lily-pagan like full idol report but all in all, kris was magnificent, allison was spectacular and adam was glorious.
*puts on her matt hat* but the biggest props?
matt giraud's "stayin' alive!" it was JT-fabulous! no, i'm not kidding i was like "justin timberlake? is that you??" but NO it was matt!
*cheesy smile* which is a good thing since i like matt a lot more than justin timberlake...
then of course the results show was tonight. i was kind of confident that all my favorites would stay so it was all good there but let me tell you...
*shivers* just the memory...
the creepy "disco legends" medley made me wanna look away and mute the TV! i don't understand why they bring back these walking corpse singers to sing on idol! they just make fools of themselves!
*fake crying* whoa is me! so sad!
but i was totally in love with the disco collaboration that paula choreographed! oh my gawd, it was awesome! at first when they all came out all i could think was "WHOA!! that shirt is NOT staying on adam!" because it was falling off the guy but then i got distracted...
*drooling* kris allen's pimp outfit...
F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S! he looked really good in it! so pimping, but good. and they all had to wear big sunglasses which was really funny! all and all, this was a major season 8 highlight.
*jumping up and down* and i saw my bromance boys kris and matt doing loads of bromantic fun stuff!
of course, i'm sure LP started getting annoyed when i started pointing out whenever kradam was on stage together being cute.
*evil smile* maybe i didn't mention, but know i'm obsessed with kris and adam as a pairing!
see? i wasn't lying when i said i make way more gay pairings then straight! but let's get onto another idol highlight...
*fist pump* ANOOP WAS SENT HOME WHERE HE BELONGS!!!
yessss!! i was so happy! i started clapping and i was like "yes! buh-bye anoop!" so sorry to any anoop fans but i was ECSTATIC.
*coughs a few times* okay, let's just move past idol and try to avoid me getting really hyper over kris's pimp outfit...
LP and me have been really dropping the ball on box of chocolates because we should've posted like two weeks ago but we've been busy...
*pish posh hand wave* but i guess that's what everyone says...
so anyway, i'm a little depressed that my last post only got 3 comments...
*shrugs* but that's pretty good so whatever.
seriously, i love getting comments so i always try to comment on my friends blogs and other blogs i like.
*winks* it's karma!
oh my goose! i have the bestest story!
*flapping her hands at nothing* oh my gosh! i can't believe it!
so here i am, bored as hell. so i decide that i'm gonna check nathaniel's myspace just to make sure he's doing ok. (nathaniel + anastasia forever, right DCas?) so i was loading the page... but then...
*chibi look of shock* it had the little "online now" blurb!
so i was like "zomg!! nathaniel's on his myspace right now!!" i was so freaking out!
*slumps in a doomed way* but alas and alack...
when i texted lily-pagan to tell her that he was online she was like "did you take a picture of the screen??" and i was no "NO!!!" so i went back to his myspace page but by then he was offline...
*crying, reaching at the screen* nooooo!! nathaniel!
but wait! there's more! so i go back on his myspace the next night and... lucky day! he was online! and i was like "i am NOT missing this!" and CLICK! now i have a screencap proving that i was indeed on his myspace at the same time as him!
*makes a heart with her hands* and he uploaded more pictures! splee!
speaking of me and nathaniel, i could really afford to post on bohemian rhapsody, too.
*nervously rubbing the back of her head* all in good time...?
so anywho, i started taking a bunch of classes at different outlets for homeschoolers. i was supposed to go to web design yesterday, but i'm considering dropping the class.
*picks up a scroll, reading it* i currently take a class on web design, theater, social justice, creative writing, and more theater. well then i have around the world cooking club and apples to apples club so there's always that...
it's not that many classes, really. but it certainly keeps me busy. i have theater on most days and i take two creative writing classes. busy, busy...
*looks apologetic* see? i really am busy!
but let's get back to classes. there's this girl who's convinced we're friends but really all she does is slap me around and diss me but i can't mouth off with her because she's off medication for absolutely no reason!
*cold wind blows by* crazy victoria...
but worst of all, she's obsessed with adam lambert! you don't know how hard it is to like him when every 6 seconds victoria's like "oh my gawd!! adam!!" she seriously reminds me of tatiana de toro...
*comparing the two in her mind* wouldn't you say, LP?
LP, too, has the misfortune of being victimized by crazy victoria. and believe me, we really really try to avoid her.
*shivers* she has like anastasia radar, i swear...
but all that aside, i have a bunch of classes with nicole, lily-pagan, jayk and dana (my primary people!) which is shweet.
and i'm still feeling empty since there was no dollhouse last friday due to prison break!
*angry mob going after cast of prison break* damn you, prison break!
but dollhouse will be back on friday. yay!
*looks deep in thought* so what else is there to talk about...?
well, i've got nothing else to say and i've surely rambled long enough to keep you satisfied! time for the must watch-see-hear!
*drum roll, opening a letter like on the Oscars* and the must watch-see-hear goes to...
Purple Banditos! a blog by my gurlie, DCas!! it's only two chapters in but it's promising for real! and DCas is amazing! don't forget to tell her that!
*smiles brightly* smile Devin Caster! we love you!
so yesh, that's about all... check out that blog soon, you won't be sorry!
*Logan Jay/Kris point* hell yesh, i'm advertising you, D!
hope everyone's doing okay and feel free to comment! i lurv comments, remember that!
*victorious pose* let the good times roll!!

live, love, lady gaga
anastasia<3:)

PS: look forward to a special edition post about me and LP's homeschooling group on Anastasia and Lily-Pagan's Box of Chocolates! coming soon!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

hey! i'm posting again and it hasn't been a million years!
*puts on her pimp glasses, nods* yesh, i want my props now.
well, this time i actually have stuff to say so let's get the luray weather report out of the way...
*wearing a weatherman coat* currently it is 38 degrees and cloudy here in luray, virginia.
yesh, the weather has been pretty decent lately.
*staring up at the stars* ah... stars still make me think of all time low...
so as you may know... tonight was idol night which 1) means that LP got to come over and watch idol on my hidef and 2) i got to watch the most amazing show ever!
*cocks her head to the side* well dollhouse dominates my thoughts, too...
anyway! songs from the year you were born, eh? it was... alright.
*raincloud overhead* yeah... just "alright."
well the first 5 were danny gokey, kris allen, lil rounds, anoop desai (*hiss*) and scott macintyre.
*boo boo lip* and it was seriously a major drag...
don't get me wrong, i love kris, and he was good (win, win) but seriously...
*rainbow off in the distance* and then the good stuff came!
allison iraheta, matt giruad and adam lambert. no sheeyit, the other 5 were like the opening act for these three.
*holding up letters on poster board* A-M-A-Z-I-N-G amazing!
finally the judges actually said something to allison about her voice and not that she dresses crazy...
*shaking her head* the judges just don't understand scene or emo...
but tonight was good, all in all. still want anoop sent home. but what else is now?
*tapping her chin, thinking* hmm... what else?
oh yes! you know, i realized that it's been 4 or 5 posts since i talked about nathaniel!
*gasps* shocking!
but yes. i'm still following his road to stardom with admiration...
*dreamy sigh* oh nathaniel...
according to his myspace [my personal heaven] he moved to vermont and is saving money to move to new york city or LA!
*eyes sparkle* how bohemian rhapsody of him!
and he just added A LOT more pictures to his myspace which is awesome for me x]
*points up* you see? that's HIM in the post pic!
so for anyone who didn't know, i used nathaniel to play matt in bohemian rhapsody one of my other blogs!
*big smile* yeah, all of the people that follow that blog say they like the chemistry between maria and matt. score!
nathaniel is probably my number 1 musical inspiration. yesh, he's amazing.
*salesman smile* check out bohemian rhapsody if you can!
so anyway, LP and me finally made our together blog!
*winks* shout out to DCas, our first follower!!
and you can check it out here. we make a pretty commercial dynamic so i'm hoping we make a good blogging duo.
*clapping her hands, proud of herself* it's still sort of a work in progress, though...
so anyhow. only a few people may remember this...
*eyes widen, gasps* zomg i mentioned it in my 7th post on december 7th, 2008...
so yeah. there's this girl named isabelle in my homeschooling group [yesh, i'm homeschooled] who is the most adorable thing i've ever seen!
*kicking the dirt* sorry, i dunno if she'd want her picture being put up here...
but you'll just have to believe me. so anyway, isabelle is my current crush. yes, i still think crushes are naive but i can't help it.
*blushes, toothy smile* sorry if it makes anyone uncomfortable, but i'm bi.
so isabelle's birthday is friday so i'm making her cookies and buying her a stuffed animal [she likes those sorts of things] and giving it to her as a birthday present.
*nodding, proud of herself* yeah, i'm a good crush.
but the weirdest and most awkward thing is... i'm 16. she's 13. well, she's turning 14 but she's still so young and pure. it makes me feel a lot older...
*hangs her head* but the worst part has to be...
she's straight. yes, my girl crush [isabelle] is straight and my guy crush [nathaniel] is gay.
*hits her head on her desk* wow, am i lucky or what?
i'm still counting on meeting nathaniel someday and hopefully someday soon! now that the idol craziness is calming down, his fan girls are dropping like flies but NO! i'm still loyal!
*imitating nathan scott of one tree hill* always and forever.
well, well. i think i've babbled long enough. time to wrap things up with anastasia's must watch-see-hear!
*opening a letter like on the oscars* and the watch-see-hear goes to...
maybe i'm dreaming! an album from little known owl city! yesh, they are awesome!
*sexy actor glasses fwip with her queemo glasses* and this time, you seriously should try them out. i'm not kidding.
wish me luck this upcoming week! i hope everyone's doing ok! ciao x]

live, love, breathe carolina

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

hello again! well after saying i was gonna try to be a better blogger, it's been almost a whole WEEK since i posted...
*rain cloud overhead* that's a little depressing...
ah well. i usually inform you guys on the weather here in luray.
*wearing a weatherman outfit* well right now it's 36 degrees and cloudy in luray, virginia
don't ask me why i always inform you about whatever the weather is like here...
*clears her throat* wow now i remember why i haven't posted in so long!
it's so boring here! it's like night of the living dead...
*big sigh* ah well...
well i still have to be a good blogger so let's talk about the only thing i know!
*rolls her eyes* umhm, you probably guessed it...
american idol. tomorrow is the beginning of mowtown week. did i mention i HATE it when they do all that non-current stuff?? it's not only non-current, it's like to 60s!
*zombies walking around outside* hello idol! this is 2009!
i mean, nevertheless adam will probably be amazing but they'll talk up danny gokey anyway...
*eye twitches* danny is good but the judges endlessly kissing his butt it starting to really bother me...
no offense to all you danny gokey fans! he's just not my cup of tea.
*counting with her head* well it's not that i don't like him... forget it!
maybe it's just because i know the finale will be danny gokey and adam lambert...
*flapping her arms* i love adam more than is good for me!
anyway, i think it's time we move past american idol. at least for a moment or two...
*evil laugh* mwah ha ha!
oh jeez, what do i have to talk about other than idol?
*pacing around* let's see... what's new... *light bulb lights* oh yeah!
i started an online book for no other reason than LP and DCas (that's my new nickname for devin caster!) believe in me!
*nodding proud of herself* but don't get too excited. i haven't posted anything yet...
so anyway, here's a quick introduction. it's called bohemian rhapsody. it's about best friends named maria and matt who both want to be singers but live in a small town. so inspired by singer emmi jules road to stardom, matt decides that he wants to run away with maria to new york city so they can have a better chance of being discovered. maria's unsure about the plan but after she gets in a fight with her parents she calls matt up, crying, and agrees to go with him. matt drives to her house in the middle of the night and maria sneaks out meet him, her bags in tow. they then run away to new york city together where they share a small apartment. and this is only the beginning!
*kicking at the ground* yeah, it's pretty teeny bopper...
but i'll try to fill it out more in the writing, really!
*giggles* but the best part is...
the two main characters, maria and matt are played by me and nathaniel marshall!
*winks* you haven't heard the last from nanastasia!
yes, i'm really a good little fan girl.
*halo overhead* i'm still starstruck by nathaniel...
hey! as long as i've got nothing to say let's cover some of my new pairings!

BRENDON URIE & RYAN ROSS: one of the coolest gay pairing ever. seriously. love panic, love gay guys. it's a win win.

SPIKE & DRUSCILLA: from buffy the vampire slayer. they're so cute! lol i love spike! and druscilla is so cute when she does her puppy dog whine!

LUCAS SCOTT & HALEY JAMES SCOTT: from one tree hill. i wanted them to be a pairing since before she married nathan. but seriously they would be hawt.

VICTOR & SIERRA: from dollhouse which i'm now completely obsessed with! the adorable doll love is so cute and pure!

NATE BATEMAN & PENELOPE: lol you're not supposed to know what it means unless you're LP. ain't it true, lily??

well sounds like it's about time for the must watch-see-hear.
*drumroll, opening a letter like on the Oscars* and the watch-see-hear goes to...
dollhouse friday nights on FOX! yup, it's the new Joss Whedon show but it's simply amazing! and you have to see victor and sierra!
*eating berry berry kix* hot damn, i think i've got the munchies... *clears her throat* anyway...
that's all for now! check out bohemian rhapsody if you'd like!
*terminator sunglasses* i'll post a link when i actually write a chapter.
vote for adam tomorrow! lol, nah i'm only kidding.
*pish posh hand wave* i don't wanna sound like i'm hawking him on my blog.
don't stop believing! hope all my followers are doing ok! ciao XD

live, love, cute is what we aim for

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

first of all i just wanted to say happy birthday to Queen Latifah and Dane Cook!
*confetti falls* happy birthday!
they're two of my greatest idol's ever! they're truly and undoubtedly awesome!
*nodding, proud of herself* yeah, they're just too cool.
so anywhosle, tonight was the american idol results show but let us first back track to last nights performance show.
*winces* i can only imagine what you're about to say...
adam lambert's nine inch nails 'ring of fire'
*tapping her chin* hmmm...
i thought it was... overwhelmingly, unbelievably, one might even say surreally sexy!!
*fanning herself* did anyone just feel a heat wave?
my mom actually had to look away it was so uncomfortable and she described it as "the sountrack to dirty sex."
*laughs, blushes* love you mom.
but seriously i can't wait until there's a studio version download-able version on iTunes!
*wearing bad ass sunglasses* 'ring of fire' meet iPod...
oh yeah. allison totally sold out of the rocker girl vibe! i wanted her to paramore-up some country classic honestly...
*shaking her head disapprovingly* ah, allison...
and finally... matt giraud won me over and i have to say he's dueling for my second favorite with kris allen. it's not that i didn't used to like matt giraud but i never really noticed how good and andrew macmahon-ish he was!
*fan girl heart overhead* maybe you remember maybe not, but i'm smitten with andrew macmahon...
now onto results night. first of all, i'd like to congratulate adam and danny gokey for keeping their pelvises to themselves.
*sticks out her tongue* although i can't and won't deny i love it when adam goes off the family show chart.
the group performance was ok, brad paisley looks disturbingly like woody from toy story, carrie underwood had an ugly dress, randy travis looks like my uncle tom...
*light bulb lights* speaking of randy travis!
i absolutely loved the way he interacted with adam! you could TASTE the homophobia!
*clears her throat, stacks papers* getting back to results night...
i was SHOCKED that alexis grace went home! and i was MORE shocked when they didn't save her!
*internal thought gears ticking* you know, for such a cute girl, her fiance isn't very cute at all... love is blind i guess...
well, i still can't wait for anoop desai to go home. i hate him...
*growls, twitching* that AND they kept showing commercials for Twilight during Idol!
no let's look past american idol onto the rest of my life...
*frozen in the wind* but the saddest part is...
when i couldn't think of anything to say i opened a new tab in FireFox to see if nathaniel had been on his myspace today.
*blushes* he WAS by the way...
ANYWAY, let me ask you all something... a few posts ago i mentioned writing an online story. but no one really responded (except LP and d. caster of course!) so if any one thinks i should or shouldn't start blogging a story on the side leave me a crayon!
*glares* and i MEAN IT.
one more thing before i wrap things up with the must watch-see-hear...
*chibbi flapping* umhm! get ready!
some of you probably noticed what i call my uber mixpod on my sidebar. i spent HOURS on that thing and all in all, it has 130 songs. i probably could've thought of more but oui. no big thang.
*smiles, rainbow forms overhead* well, what's an amateur music blogger without her music??
so let's cut to the watch-see-hear and wrap things up...
*drum roll, opening a letter like on the academy awards* and the watch-see-hear goes to...
Want (an album by 3oh3)!! i just heard a few more songs by them and i like all of them! listen to their album! they're AWESOME.
*hair flip, sparkles come out* and i should know a thing or two about awesome...
lol! just kidding!
*twirls around* 14 followers = BLISS
well ta ta for now! i'll hopefully post again VERY soon. blogging rawks big time.

live, love, hellogoodbye

PS: is Simon Cowell increasingly pissing anyone else off?! he's WAY too self indulgent :P
PSS: don't forget about leaving me crayon for advice on the writing!
PSSS: thanks to everyone who agreed that adam lambert has nothing in common with edward cullen OR joe jonas! represent! adam rocks! edward and joe jonas SUCK!

I love you and I miss you, what else can I say?

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

two days in a row that i posted. whoa. when's the last time that happened?
*cocks her head to the side* well it was december 7th followed by december 8th
but anywho it's been a LONG time.
*nodding* right? right.
well, tonight was idol night and lily-pagan came over. nothing new.
*suspense* until...
the group performance. DUN DUN DUN!!
*heavy sighs* admittedly boring since they didn't do Thriller...
but oh my effin gawd did you see danny gokey?? "hi, i'm danny gokey! here's my pelvis!" zomg! whoa!
*snaps the back of danny gokey's hand with a ruler* and adam didn't thrust AT ALL so you've got no excuse, mr. gokey!
speaking of adam, he was very very cute and also underplayed. they didn't show as much of him as i thought they would considering he's a judge favorite AND a fan favorite.
*covering her ears* hot dayumm! did you see the way they screamed when they showed him??
he has an enormous fan following and will certainly make it to the top 2 if not win it all!
*chibbi flap* love you, adam! you're gonna go far, kid!
but good things never last. kelly clarkson performed. have i told you all this? i REALLY (x forever) hate her! and i really hate that song! sure it's dancey and all but seriously, i'm so sick of it!
*looks apologetic* sorry all you kelly fans...
and anoop desai was safe. did i mention? i really hate him too. i was like "save the magic puerto rican man!" but noooooo anoop was safe after a horendous version of 'beat it" i mean really it was like a drunken phrat party performance.
*glares at anoop* but that's probably the best he's got...
hate anoop. hate kelly clarkson. hated idol's results tonight. bam.
*sitting in a rocking chair, holding a pipe* lemme tell you youngin's a story
my mom had to make a run to Tops to get bread for dinner but i really love our car so i went along.
*smiles, winks* we have XM radio.
so my mom ran in to get the bread and i stayed in the car. so i turned to my second favorite channel on the XM, channel 47, altnation.
*sunglasses on, spinning ritz* it plays good music.
and 'ghost town' by shiny toy guns came on. i had never heard the song but i was bored so i listening to it. and you know what? i'm HOOKED!!
*points up* the picture at the top is them.
when i got home i bought it from iTunes and put it on my iPod. love that song!
*dancing* we are living in a ghost town!
also on my loop of songs on my iPod i recently got hooked on is 'far more' by the honorary title. i've had it on my iPod for awhile but i'm seriously in love with it know.
*points up again* the title of the post is lyrics from that song.
plus the honorary title was on one tree hill and they sang that song. way coolio.
*light bulb lights* Also!
i just started season 5 of OTH (i know it's been awhile since i talked about THAT!) and so far so good.
*fake crying* i'm still mourning the loss of chris keller...
but i LOVE the character Mia! she's way cool.
*waving a flag with kate voegele on it* yay mia!
and before i forget this posts must watch-see-hear is...
*drum roll, opening a letter like on the oscars* the watch-see-hear goes to...
Like A Brother!
*nodding* yup, more hot gay guy movies.
but in parts of the movie the main character zack seriously reminds me of adam lambert. not visually! but a little bit character wise.
*scoffs* he's was more like zack than edward cullen!
well that's all i've got to say for now. ciao!

live, love, hey monday
