On that note of procrastinating - how often do I procrastinate or make excuses by saying I'm busy with something else? (read that post. It's good.)

Oh, what could I be missing because tell my little brother that I'm "too busy?"

My brother is a genius.

Oh life....

So. Pictures....of life! From the last...3-4 months or so! Minus the pics from Nationals, which ideally shall come later.

Portland, Oregon for the Region II tournament. My favorite thing about this picture is Raymond in the background... =]

Adventuring out to see Jane Eyre with Gray and Ophelia...

My awesome Silversmith speech club. LOVE.

Co-op semi formal...sooo much fun! Except that swing dancing on a boat is *not* that smart...

John-Luke's 10th birthday - I made him a lego cake. =]

Co-op graduation. (not my high school graduation, just co-op graduation)

So...I have pretty much grown up with these girls all my life. <3

One-day production of Fiddler on the Roof. Good times, that.

Matchmaker, matchmaker, make me a match....

Summer weather with my crazy dog....

...and my crazy friends....

...and crazy siblings...

But somehow, it's the middle of July and I'm still wearing jeans...something is wrong with this picture....oh, Seattle....

How do eskimos do their hair?

>is arranging hair in emo fashion<
Me: Mom, does this look emo?
Mom: It looks...um... (*no comment*)
Me: >laughs and goes back to mirror<
John-Luke: >following behind< What's emo?
Me: Uh...it's like a style, sort of.
John-Luke: I thought those were the guys who were like fluff around their hoods with sunglasses and live in the snow.
Me: What? OH! No, that's an eskimo.

I'm like....so completely in love with my little baby brother..... (:

PS - I am also not emo in any way shape or form. I just recently discovered that by pushing all my bangs to the opposite side, I achieve an emo-like hairstyle, which greatly amused me.

Life, by Me.

So, I thought I'd give you an actual update as to what I've been doing lately. Not that it's that fascinating or anything.

A couple weeks ago, I declared September 18th International John-Luke Day and took my brother out for the afternoon.

First, we went to Krispy Kremes (love!) for doughnuts.


Next we went to Gilman Village. Gilman Village is probably my favorite little shopping center ever, and if anyone wants to go shopping with me there, I would love you.

Took him into White Horse Toys, one of the many places I loved as a kid.


After several hours of discovery (John-Luke), reminiscing (me), and entertainment (both of us), we left to find things to eat. (PCC natural Markets)

Then we went to the Lego store (John-Luke's favorite) and spent an hour in there picking and choosing and admiring.

All in all, it was a rather tiring, but extremely fabulous day. (:

We also finally finished all filming for our movie, Deliver-E (which you can read more about Here)

This is the cast/crew of the last scene we shot: (minus John-Luke who is taking the picture)

Aside from insane amounts of schoolwork, life is good.

There are also two extremely exciting things that are quite possibly happening in the near future. If they happen, you will hear about it. If they don't....well. Then you won't. ;)

Oh! There's also a new poll on the sidebar. Mark Johnson, the producer of Dawn Treader, says he's willing to let fans decide what movie should be made next in the series.

Dawn Treader comes out in 65 days!!!
