In the program for Up the Down Staircase, Caroline's last words were: "Hopefully we all learned something. I know I did" or something like that, so I thought I'd list what I learned.
10. It's usually worth the trouble.
9. If you bring it, they want it.
8. Sharing mascara is kinda creepy. i don't.
7. It's really hard to remember your cues when Richelle, John, and Kyle are laughing/snorting/sneezing backstage.
6. BEWARE: Some desks are never reliable.
5. Some people have a hard time understanding sarcasm.
4. Too Much Candy is definetely possible.
3. When someone forgets their line, don't say theirs and then yours, because then you're having a conversaton with yourself. that never works.
2. RICE CRACKERS SMELL WEIRD.
1. French fries are NOT romantic.
0. No matter who says they are.
-1. When in doubt, don't ask.

Up the Up Escalator
I've never taken a "crunch week" so literally. I think I'm going insane. Is it just me or has this play been remarkably to quote Caroline, "off"? Opening night has crept up on me, and now, it's crunching me!

Obsessions of a 14-year-old
I finally got a hold of Twilight by Stephenie Meyer, and I am amazed that it took so long for me to discover her amazing series (that in fact wiped Harry Potter 7 off of the best sellers list...) :O READ THEM. I am telling you, you won't be able to put 'em down.

You know you're from Utah when...
(Sorry, I couldn't resist.)
You know what Fry Sauce is made of.
You go to the duck pond to feed the Seagulls.
Green Jell-o with cabbage mixed in doesn't seem strange.
The U is not just a letter - Neither is the Y.
You have actually eaten funeral potatoes.
You've gotten both heat and frost burns off your car's door handle in the same month!
You are not surprised to hear words like "Darn, Fetch, Flip", "Oh, My Heck" and "Shoot".
Your tulips get snowed on three times after they come up and twice more after they bloom.
The largest liquor store is the state government.
You can go skiing and play golf on the same day.
30% humidity is muggy and almost unbearable.
You know the difference between a 'Steak House' an d a 'Stake House'.
You've broken down on the highway and somebody stops to help you.
You can see the stars at night.
You were an aunt or uncle before you were three.
You have more children than you can find biblical names for.
Your family considers a trip to McDonald's a night out.
You feel guilty when you watch Monday Night Football.
At least two of your salad bowls are at the homes of neighbors.
There is a similarity between a ward basketball game and the L.A. riots.
You think Jack Daniels is a country western singer.
You negotiate prices at a garage sale.
You can make Jell-O salad without the recipe.
You've heard about BYU football in a testimony meeting.
You have two gallons of ice cream in your freezer at all times.
Your father-in-law thinks Ronald Reagan was a liberal.
A member of your family wrote in Lavell Edwards for president in the last election.
Sandals are the best-selling shoes.
Hotel rooms all have the Book of Mormon.
You buy your wardrobe at the local grocery superstore.
You learn about the Mormon Church by taking history in elementary school.
You live in a state where Democrats always come in third place, unless a zoo animal is running. Then they come in fourth.
Schools stay open, even if two feet of snow falls overnight, but closes for the opening of hunting season.
People wear shorts and T-shirts if the temperature rises above 32 degrees.
There is a church on every corner, but they all teach the same thing.
In-state college football rivalries are bigger than the Super Bowl.
Every driveway has a minivan and a pickup truck.
When you buy a new vehicle, cigarette lighters are optional equipment but ski racks are standard.
Every time a new family moves into your neighborhood, the local elementary school has to hire a new teacher.
Every time a new family moves into your neighborhood, your whole family has to go and meet them the next day, after you helped them unload their moving truck.
Your paycheck has an additional 10 percent deduction.

14ft Deep Thoughts =)
Yes, you're quite correct Taylor. My next birthday isn't until next year. Don't worry I won't start counting down.
I digress.
The world is full of intelligent things. This list is part of the mission to support the other parts of the world. Can you answer these? Don't think too hard.
Can you cry under water?
How important does a person have to be before they are considered assassinated instead of just murdered?
Why do you have to "put your two cents in".. . but it's only a "penny for your thoughts"? Where's that extra penny going to?
How is it that we put man on the moon before we figured out it would be a good idea to put wheels on luggage?
Why is it that people say they "slept like a baby" when babies wake up like every two hours?
If a deaf person has to go to court, is it still called a hearing?
Why are you IN a movie, but you're ON TV?
Why do people pay to go up tall buildings and then put money in binoculars to look at things on the ground?
Why do toasters always have a setting that burns the toast to a horrible crisp, which no decent human being would eat?
If the professor on Gilligan's Island can make a radio out of a coconut, why can't he fix a hole in a boat?
Why does Goofy stand erect while Pluto remains on all fours? They' re both dogs!
If corn oil is made from corn, and vegetable oil is made from vegetables, what is baby oil made from?
Do the Alphabet song and Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star have the same tune?
Why did you just try singing the two songs above?
Did you ever notice that when you blow in a dog's face, he gets mad at you, but when you take him for a car ride; he sticks his head out the window?
Now, you'll get a shiny star sticker from Tori if you can answer this: Why does a round pizza come in a square box?!?
Mind boggling, aint it?
rock on.
