Outlet: Art

Collage work, screenwriting, songwriting, and painting are the best outlets ever.
It is so amazing how much better I feel after writing four or five pages of gore, or putting together a collage with words or pictures that express me in some way. Or even writing a few songs. These outlets are part of the reason why I get up every morning looking forward to a new day. I guess they could be considered forms of therapy because they help get people through the day.
The best part about these are that if you are the type of person who can't stand to talk about the stuff that is bothering you, you can just sit down and piece together something that resembles or expresses what you are trying to get out.
Another thing that is really cool about it is that something new and unique comes out of it.
I always wonder why they don't have patients in mental hospitals do some of this stuff, it might actually help them.

Work

I love my new job. It is so much better than being a cashier at Walmart. I can't believe I ever wanted to get that job back. Being a pizza hut delivery girl is amazing, I have finally learned where north, south, east, and west are in this town. I have already memorized where thirteen different streets are and how to get to these streets. This job is a lot easier than I thought it would be. All I have to do is wait to be dispatched to the address and deliver the pizza. When I don't have any deliveries I just do prep work which is very, very easy. All I have to do on prep is get pizza dough and breadstick dough prepared for the next day, do dishes, and take out the trash. It's a quite a bit more work than cashiering but I enjoy it, it's so much easier than dealing with really mean, unappreciative customers. The best part about this job is that I get tips! Every time I am dispatched to an address, I get a dollar tip out of the twenty I am given at the beginning of my shift.

Friday night was cool, I got seventeen dollars in tips. I thought that was good until Sunday night, I made thirty dollars in tips on Sunday night! I couldn't believe how much and how easy it was to make that much money in one night. Yesterday on Monday night I only made like nine dollars in tips. :( That's okay though Friday night isn't too far away.

On Sunday night there was one really generous customer that actually gave me a fourteen dollar tip, and a stoner customer that gave me a seven dollar tip for getting to his house on time. Sunday night was a great night for tips.

I really like my new job at Pizza Hut and I really don't think I will ever want to go back to Walmart to deal with rude, abnoxious, loud, unhappy, mean, unappreciative customers that don't understand how hard it is to keep smiling and be polite when almost everyone that came up to the register was angry at you for something you did or didn't do. But to rap this up I really enjoy my new job where the customers are just happy to see you bringing their food to them.

Classic Monster Movies

I saw the old wolfman movie and loved it. The new one looks sooo much cooler. Benecio Del Toro plays the Wolfman. Anthony Hopkins, Emily Blunt, and Hugo Weaving are in it. With a cast like that the movie should be awesome. I can't wait until it comes out. Oh it comes out February 2! Only twenty more days!

The old Wolfman movie was good, but the makeup and costume they used for the old wolfman movie was kind of comical. The old wolfman was this guy with a bunch of fur on his face and hands. The new wolfmans makeup and costume looks awesome. It's amazing what makeup artists and costume designers can do for films.

Since they did a remake of the Wolfman, I read on two different movie websites that there is talk of doing a remake of The Blob, and supposedly Frankenstein. I really hope that it's true, I loved the blob and the original Frankenstein with Borris Carloff. Bella Legosi made an amazing Dracula. Dracula is like the only movie that has been remade so many times and should not be remade anymore. I only liked two of the many Dracula movies, I liked the original Dracula with Bella Legosi, and Young Frankenstein with Gene Wilder and Peter Boyle.

The Virgin Suicides

The Virgin Suicides movie was really good. I was surprised by how well Sofia Coppola directed and wrote the script. Kirsten Dunst performance in the movie was good. No wonder she was picked for the lead in Marie Antoinette.

The way the movie started with Giovanni Ribisi narrating was awesome, it led into the youngest of the sisters attempt to commit suicide. The saddest part of the movie I thought was the ending where the other four sisters died.

Some of the scenes in the movie were just so amazing. I loved the different camera angles that were used in the movie! Especially the one where the character Lux woke up on the football field, the way it was shot and the music playing just made the scene amazing. Quite a few of the scenes gave off this feeling of eerieness.

Anyways I really enjoyed the movie and strongly reccomend.

School

Yay! I passed all my classes! I'm sooo happy. That means I'm still able to graduate with the class of 2010! Yay! I was really worried about my English class. The research paper stuff killed my grade last year when I was a Junior. Which is why I ended up going to summer school, that really sucked. But luckily for me I did ok on my English final and passed the class with a D. Not the best grade in the world but hey its passing. That was my lowest grade, my algebra two class I managed to get a C, but i am defininatly going to work harder in that class. I have a 3.0 gpa, so hopefully I qualify for the Mack Chase Scholarship. It would be great if I could get that scholarship because right now the only scholarship I know I will get for sure is the New Mexico Lottery Scholarship.
