"No one mourns the wicked"

Okay, so. It's been forever since I've blogged, but I'm back because I have a new show that I'm addicated to! It's not really the best show ever, but somehow i got hooked on it (you should all know how that is since you're TV.com'ers) and I just can't stop watching it. I'll probably blog again soon ranting about the show, but I have to go to sleep so this is just a quickie!

"Masquerade; hide your face so the world will never find you."

So it's July 10th, and I'm back.

I just have to say that The Phantom of the Opera was obviously the best part. It's really one of the most incredible stories ever written. Even if you're not familiar with the book or movie though, you can still enjoy seeing it on Broadway. I know everyone thinks I'm just saying good things about it because I've been in love with the movie, but it truly is the best. But, if you do go to New York city and you want to see a few shows, and Phantom is one of them, I suggest saving it for last. If you see Phantom first, you'll be kind of disappointed with anything you see after it. I saw The Phantom of the Opera on the 30th, and then the next night I went to go see Chicago with my dad and my sister, and I really wasn't impressed. I love the movie, but there's so much more they could have done with it on stage. Maybe I would have enjoyed it more if i hadn't just been blown away by what I saw the night before.

Anyway, I had like, the best seats ever for POTO. We were four rows back from the orchestra pit, and you really don't want to be any closer to the stage than that. The fourth row is perfect though because that's right where the chandelier falls, right under/in front of the phantom when he comes down singing All I Ask of You (Reprise), and it's close enough to see everything and even hear the people on stage breathing. I do have to admit though that I was a little disappointed with the chandelier falling. It just seemed a little weird, the timing for it and everything, but it's not like it ruined the show or anything, so it's okay. During intermission me and my sister went over the the orchestra pit to watch them practice and stuff, and they were all pretty friendly looking people. My sister plays the bass, and she's a social butterfly, so she said hi to the bassist and they actually started talking. She said that she has to do 8 shows, 6 days a week. That's kind of crazy, especially for some of the people that are actually on stage. Anyway, you can ask me questions if you happen to be curious about anything [:

The next show I plan on seeing is Wicked. I'm reading the book right now, and The Wizard of Oz, obviously, is another one of my favorite movies ever. So if anyone has seen that, I'd like to know your opinion on it.

"... But if this ever changing world in which we live in makes you give in and cry, live and let die."

I'm so excited, I've been waiting to finally be at level 3! I thought the colorful thingy was stuck at 93%.

Anyway, I just wanted everyone to know that I absolutely hate the Jonas Brothers with a passion. My sister made me watch Camp Rock with her tonight (.. okay, she didn't really force me to watch it, I was kind of curious about it anyway..) and it was the worst movie I've ever seen in my life. I just thought I'd warn whoever happens to read this. DO NOT WATCH CAMP ROCK.

So I watched 3 epsiodes from the 5th season of Monk today. I have about 4 more episodes left until I finish. I was obviously bored.

I do have plans for tomorrow though! I'm going to my friend's sister's going away party and probably staying over there for a while. On Monday though, I plan to start packing for my trip [:

On June 30th I'm going to see The Phantom of the Opera on Broadway! I'm leaving on the 26th and won't be back until around July 10th..ish. I'm so excited, I've been waiting FOREVER to see this. Not even Emily or Roberto understand how excited I am. Please don't watch Saw 3 and 4 without me guys, okay? Thanks.
