Talent of a 14-year-old-to-be

I'm Alice Blake. And when I mark my script for the play "Up the Down Staircase" I use pencil, because if I used pen, I'd have to white-out like a banshee, wouldn't I Caroline? There's no going back now. Unless I had Reece break my leg. It's just too bad that we're already behind rehearsal schedule and we've only had one practice...

Happy Birthday Elisa!

Boredom of a 14-year-old-to-be

oh I'm bored.
as bored as one can be.
oh I'm bored.
lack of contacts make it hard to see.
and I'm bored.
oh I'm bored.
oh so bored.

(Maybe I wouldn't be so bored if I did my homework? Naah...I'll do it before Seminary on Monday. =P)

Wisdom of a 14-year-old-to-be

It has been my experience:
When you have more friends than enemies, you're as popular as you ever need to be.
When someone cares enough to say "hi" back, you'll never be worthless.
When you want someone to be your friend that isn't, they probably have a problem that you can't solve. Don't try to.
When people do something the know is wrong, or even talk about doing it, they blame others in weird ways to make them look better.
When someone says that you mean everything to them, watch how their actions to find out just how sincere they are.
When you find out who you are, you'll be all you can be.

One more thing.
"One who waits for roast duck to fly to their mouth, must wait a very long time."

Have you called Jenny yet? Rock on.

HAIRSPRAY!!!! (...again...)

Once i was a selfish fool
Who never understood
I never looked inside myself
Though on the outside, i looked good!

Then we met and you made me
The man i am today
Tracy, i'm in love with you
No matter what you weigh
'Cause...

LINK (& ENSEMBLE)
Without love
Life is uke the seasons with
No summer
Without love
Life is rock 'n' roll without
A drummer

Tracy, i'll be yours forever
'Cause 1 never wanna be
Without love
Tracy, never set me free
No, i ain't lyin'
Never set me free, Tracy,
No, no, no!!

TRACY
Once i was a simple girl
Then stardom came to me
But i was still a nothing
Though a thousand fans may
Disagree

ENSEMBLE

TRACY
Fame was just a prison
Signing autographs a bore
I didn't have a clue
'Til you came banging on my door

TRACY (& ENSEMBLE)

Life is like my dad without his bromo
Without love
Life is making out with perry como!

Darling, i'll be yours forever
'Cause i never wanna be
Without love

I'm yours forever

TRACY

SEAWEED
Living in the ghetto
Black is everywhere ya go
Who'd 've thought i'd love a girl
With skin as white as winter's snow

PENNY
In my ivory tower
Life was just a hostess snack
But now i've tasted chocolate
And i'm never going back

PENNY & SEAWEED & ENSEMBLE
'Cause without love

SEAWEED

PENNY & SEAWEED & ENSEMBLE

If you're locked up in this prison, trace
I don't know what i'll do

TRACY

So that i can get my hands on you

SEAWEED
And girl, if i can't touch you
Now i'm gonna lose control

PENNY
Seaweed, you're my black white knight
I've found my blue-eyed soul

SEAWEED & ENSEMBLE
Sweet freedom is our goal

Only ice cream never sundaes
Like a circle with no center
Like a door marked "do not enter!"

Hi, I'm still Tori

School rocks, life rocks, and Seminary starts Monday.

Concrete Girl

Bleeding thoughts
Cracking boulder
Don't fall over

Fake your laughter
Burn the tear
Sing it louder
Twist and shout

Way up here
We stand on shoulders
Growing colder

Laugh or cry
I won't mind
Sing it louder
Twist and shout

Immovable shadows
The concrete girl
Will rock your world
To nothing

And they're swimming around again, again
And they're swimming around
The concrete girl

Catch your breath like four-leaf clover
Hand it over

Scream to no one
Take your time
Sing it louder
Twist and shout

Nothing to run from is worse than something
And all your fears of nothing

And they're swimming around again, again
And they're swimming around
The concrete girl

Concrete girl don't fall down
In this broken world around you
Concrete girl don't fall down
Don't fall down my concrete girl

Don't stop thinking
Don't stop feeling now

One step away from where we were
And one step back to nothing
Concrete girl

Concrete girl don't fall down in this broken world around you
Concrete girl don't fall down
Don't fall down my concrete girl

Concrete girl don't fall down
Don't break down my concrete girl
