Tell me, did you sail across the sun?
Did you make it to the Milky Way and see the lights all faded?
And that Heaven is overrated?

Hello.
As you can see, there's been some reconstruction.  
I think I'm just extremely fickle. 
Or crazy.
Maybe both?


Any who,
HAPPY late (insert holiday here)!
I hope you had fun doing whatever it is you usually do on your holiday that falls around this time on the calendar.
Sorry it is a tad late, I was occupied with my multitude of holiday festivities, which include Christmas Eve AND Christmas Day with the extended family and Christmas morning with just my immediate family.
FUN STUFF.


I just love key changes. In music.
I've always loved them, but this love has DEFINITELY GROWN after hearing the key change in Girls Freak Me Out by The Summer Set.
CLICK ME if you wanna hear.
Brian Dales has an AMAZING voice. Add The Summer Set to my long list of obsessions.
Alongside Berry White Mochas from Caribou and NeverShoutNever.



Why was six afraid of seven?
It wasn't. Numbers are not sentient and thus incapable of feeling fear.


XOX,

MAGIC

Author: Kara /

Stuck in the sand with the waves at my feet,
And I wish you'd come crash into me
'Cause where you are is where I wanna be now.
- The Summer Set
(My favorites ♥)  

Well, hello there Internet.
You're looking swell today. *plethora of awkward pickup lines*

Plethora.
That is a fun word.
A fun word indeed.

So are pickup lines.
Especially the Harry Potter themed pickup lines. HILARIOUS.
Examples:
"Interested in making some magic together? My wand is at the ready."
"I'm not wearing an invisibility cloak, but do you think i could visit your restricted section tonight?"
"Whaddya say you and me go look for the Room of Requirement?"

Sorry this is a short one.
But I have to go to THE FIRST SWEENEY REHEARSAL and study for yet another Euro test... Why is this class taking over my life?
Ponder that while the dentist is cleaning your teeth. Or whatever activities you choose to pursue today.


How do you wake up Lady Gaga?
Set an alarm for a reasonable hour. 

XOX,
Kara ♥ 












Coffee, pants, and other unrelated things

You change history, but history is what's changin' me.
- Cady Groves

Euro and a Vanilla White Mocha.
A harmonious combination. Minus the Euro.
It tastes like winter. Speaking of, Minnesota has another winter storm warning.
It's a WINTER WONDERLAND up here.
♫ Walking in a winter wonderland ♫

Guess what.
I have some new favorite pants. Well, leggings.
They're striped. Pink and gray specifically. They are extremely comfortable and warm.
They sort of resemble the epic pants... 

ENSEMBLE FOR SWEENEY!
Not what I actually wanted, but it'll still be a GREAT show!
AND i get to do my first show in a while with some of my freshie friends. It's gonna be a PARTY.
It's also a ghetto fam semi-reunion... I think half of us are in Sweeney Todd...?? Ehh. But i miss y'all.

I have a renewed love for CHRISTMAS cookies after making them yesterday.
Especially frosting war paint. YEAHHH.

And the movie ELF.
"I think you're really beautiful and I feel really warm when I'm around you and my tongue swells up."
"I'm a cotton-headed ninnymuggins."
"Buddy the elf, what's your favorite color?"

What's brown and sticky?
A stick.

XOX,

Attend my tale...

Are you running out of breath? 
From running through my head ALL NIGHT?
-Stephen Jerzak

Anywho,
I'M BACK. Whaddup.
I think this is going to be a regular thing, yes?
GOOD.

So, I'm patiently waiting for the cast list of SWEENEY TODD to be posted. (I got callbacks for Lucy/Beggar Woman and Mrs. Lovett, by the way). I'M NERVOUS. But whatever happens, happens, and I'm DEFINITELY honored to be considered! Callbacks were also really fun, which is a definite plus.
I think I'd rather be the Beggar Woman for several reasons,
1. For the entire show, she just runs around screaming at people. For most of the time it's either FIRE or ALMS.
2. She gets to die at the end. Which would be really fun as well.
3. She gets to wear a really sketchy beggar costume.
4. She gets to sing high. Which I quite enjoy.
5. She randomly appears in random places.
YEAH. I think that'd be just a little bit FUN and HILARIOUS...
But seriously. I'm fine with anything! 


How do you confuse a blonde?
Paint yourself GREEN and throw forks at her.

Your mother is so fat, she should be worried about the increased risk of cardiovascular disease.

What is red and smells like blue paint?
Red paint.

My friend recently told me about these and I think they are quite funny. 
More next time, yes?
I think so.

XOX,
Kara ♥


 


 

it makes me smile :)

Author: Kara /

The last time i participated in this tradition (made by my love Lucy), it was the summer, and I feel like I need some things to smile about :)

It makes me smile...
- Going through Cinderella pictures. Thank you to those who put them on Facebook.
- A specific picture: the one of Jack and I during the village scene. LOVE IT and him.
- The "KT" spray-cheesed cracker that's still my phone background.
- Pronouncing German EXTREMELY wrong. ACK!
- Long lunch chats with my BFF.
- Making skits for the Odyssey in Communications.
- The feeling of being DONE with a Euro test!
- Getting Facebook chatted by the Cinderella cast. It brightened my day!
- Filling out the Sweeney Todd audition form. I'm actually SO EXCITED to audition! I know it'll be a great time and I hope i get in! Cross your fingers for me :)
Plus all the AMAZINGLY AMAZING experiences I had last weekend with the Cinderella cast during production week... DEFINITELY too many to write in one post!
Now I gotsa go ♫ SING ♫ at my choir concert and practice for auditions next week! Adios!

XOX,
Kara ♥  

WITHDRAWAL.

Author: Kara /

Well, it's over.
Cinderella is over.
And I am EXTREMELY, EXTREMELY SAD.
If you are reading this and you're in the cast, I'll miss you all SO MUCH and I LOVE YOU ALL. Seriously. I'm going to be experiencing MAJOR withdrawal for the next couple of weeks. This was my favorite show that I have been in and I honestly have never worked with a better cast! :)
And to everyone in the GHETTO FAMILY...
Y'all were pretty much the reason this show was SO SO FUN. Imma miss you all SO MUCH. Wait. Kidding. We're still DEFINITELY gonna hang :)
But I LOVE YOU and I'm still really sad that we don't get to perform together anymore :( But I know that some of you are auditioning for the next Bluewater show Sweeney Todd (which I FERVENTLY HOPE I get into... we'll see)

Well,
Now time to sadly and slowly return to normal life. Which includes studying for a Euro test with my project buddies Mari and Sara today. Mehhhhhhhh. 

XOX,
Kara ♥
