Harpers Island - a belated comment [15 Jul 2009|03:57am]
Recap: Florence/Rome/Italy mega fun. Back in States for the summer, I have met many interesting people - may share later. But for the moment:

HARPERS ISLAND.

The show is finally over and has left me wanting more. I feel like the ending had such promise - I really wish they had developed it more. What an interesting character they created!

I'm not going to sit here and say Harpers Island was a brillant show. It wasn't, I know that. It had very creative deaths - but honestly, I didn't watch for that. I watched for what I hoped was going to be an epic reveal, a truly amazing plot. It wasn't quite there, not all of it at any rate. I feel as if they had focused more of the story, rather than killing off the cast, it might have been much better.

Here there be spoilers )

Gossip Girl Icons [06 May 2009|09:41pm]
I'm addicted. I also am very interested in the clothing of the boys - because those icons of the clothes are very clearly Chuck, and very clearly Nate - to me at any rate. The costume department is the shiz.

Back and Forth [06 May 2009|08:52pm]
I am a terrible updater. Just horrid.

Broke up with boy, got back together with boy, broke up with boy for good. Am enjoying singledom immensely.

A semester gone! Only a year and a half remains, how depressing is that? And then it's back to the US of A for good.

I don't really have much to say, sadly. I will make lists instead:

Things learned this semester:
Snog is delicious
Everything is easier if you have a smile on your face
Relaxation is rewarding
There is no need to worry! EVER!
Chocolate can fix all problems
Friends should bring out the best in you, not the worst
Trips are better with company
Schnappes are delicious and perfect for a night with the girls
The Queens Arms makes the best hot chocolate in the world
Acting is my favorite thing in the whole world
The best way to have a pillow fight is in a public park, middle of the day, with wine and cake nearby
Saying hello can make someone's day
You should never settle for less than what you want.

I'm off to Italy in a few days - YAY! Super psyched... I can't wait to see Florence, and Rome, and THE VATICAN. I think I'm most excited about the Vatican - my inner Jesus freak is coming out.

An Understatement. [11 Jan 2009|07:24pm]
Okay, last entry was very depressing.

I'm very sad still, but I am now going to focus on the good things.

For example, this evening I went to a fantastic church, I cannot wait to become part of its community. I felt like God was really there, which is - if you're a Christian - something of the utmost importance.

I sorry if I worried anyone, I may not be okay, but I'm going to get through this. I mean, I figure I deserve the suffering now, I definitely brought it about. So - my future is going to be going to this church, eating lots of chocolate, and playing Age of Empires (time to kick some Egyptian ass baby!).

Exciting Adventures Afoot [17 Oct 2008|07:27pm]
Tomorrow I'm off to Istanbul (or Constantinople).

I'm sooooooo excited, I've been wanting to go to Turkey something dreadful for the past year, courtesy of my recent infatuation with Byzantium. So seeing the Hagia Sophia is a dream come true, and tomorrow - I can do it!!!!

Slightly worried, however, due to my terrible luck traveling. So, cross your fingers for me wish me safe flights!

PS- will update this thing later. I will. Promise. Lots to catch up on too.

Fate [05 Apr 2008|03:27am]
After much consulting of movies, novels, and other cliched types of media I have discovered my fate.

Since my career goal is a journalist I will fall in love with someone who I'm writing a story on. HOWEVER, they will not know what I'm doing - and when I finally gather up the courage to tell them, they'll discover my story on today's headlines. There will be a fierce fight in which I will be placed in the pits of despair before finally, after much hard work on my part and loads of romantic sentiment - they forgive me and we live happily ever after.

It's nice that Hollywood planned that out for me, don't you think?

Life, The Universe, and Everything [23 Feb 2008|09:24pm]
It takes me forever to update this thing, I don't know why but it does.

So, as always, a lot has happened since last entry. I've been elected the temporary chair of the Student Union on my campus - which is exciting but a lot of work. I'm trying to get a Constitution going, but I'm meeting with the opposition of indifference. But it will happen. It has to happen to get this organization off the ground. There are some props to the office though, I'm now in contact with the higher strata at the University - the president, the board of trustees, so hopefully I can make a difference.

One can only hope.

Classes are going well, I positively adore my Beginning Directing class, the others are "okay".

Having a spot of boy trouble... still on the search for Mr. Right but crushing hearts with platonic love on the way. I'd go into details - but who knows who reads this? (No one)

I just finished reading the most amazing book - the Screwtape Letters. Religion, as most of you know, has really become important since last January to me. I'm going to church relatively regularly, trying to do Christian duty - trying to listen... but I'm afriad I'm a bit rubbish at it because I have a terrible knack for getting distracted. I need to learn to focus. I was hoping to do that on Ash Wednesday - with my fasting... but it was so easy (which is actually a miracle in itself) that I didn't do much focusing - I think I'll try again and see if it works.

Anyway, I picked up the Screwtape Letters because I woke up last Friday and felt the need to explore my faith a little bit more. But I havent' read it until today. And it really hit home, every word. Because I recognize the very temptations I've been falling into, things I've never realized as temptations because they've been subtle. Maybe temptation isn't the correct word, but things which have hindered my faith. Such as prayer, I've been cheating for awhile - only praying when I wanted something (bad!) or needed comfort. I haven't been kneeling, or in the mind of being a supplicant. I've been trying to conjure this feeling of 'forgiveness' or 'good behavior' and generally I've been failing. I need to just let go, enjoy, relax, and talk. I shouldn't try to make myself feel anything, but just feel it (this has been a problem with boy as well).

I need to be more concerned with the Present, rather than the future. Like Kellie's Buddhist teachings, it's the hear and now that I should be concerned with. For the present is what matters. I think if I start taking things day by day, looking for things to be thankful for - things I can do to help, that I will find life a lot more rewarding.

I've forgotten that the World is one of the greatest temptations. There is a reason some of the best Christian literature comes from those who have been in isolation... because the world is a corrupting force. Just because 'everyone' finds something acceptable doesn't mean it is. The World is a distraction that I easily lose myself in. It's hard for a grain of sand to remain unmoved when the tide comes in.

So new resolution, stop listening to my little devils and focus on what's important.

The Titantic Sinking... [30 Dec 2007|05:58am]
[ mood | crushed ]
[ music | Apologize - Timbaland ]

I never thought I could get so worked up over a television show - but here I find myself, in tears bemoaning a ship that never could be but one I wanted all the same. I hadn't even watched the episode and I was upset, I knew the impending doom... I could sense it. Then I read the spoilers, and was ten times more upset. Upon actually seeing the episode I find myself beyond all logical feeling - I am truly in the pit of despair, my ship has sunk and I am stranded.

Spoilers for Season 2 Finale of Robin Hood )

Dear Maz/Giz,

RIP. It was fun while it lasted. I'll visit you in fanfiction, we will always have AU.

Hugs and Kisses.
Julia







PS: On the bright side, I now am inspired to make a sweet fan video, so be on the lookouts for that one!

[03 Oct 2007|10:19am]
FIRST: An elaboration on the events mentioned previous.
Marriage and affair are both pretend as is my daughter (obviously, because that would have me pregnant at 2). I do adore my husband though, despite his cheese obsession (he's from Wisconsin, 'nuff said).
Start of Term party at Umbaba was a lot of fun, but I should have worn more. Going out in the cold here in Britain wearing nothing more than a backless top and fake pleather pants is not smart. However, I did get to wear, on the way back, an Armani jacket - which was quite exciting. Am now quite sick. I'm a bit disappointed by the club DJs here in London. I feel like my dad and I do a much better job. Umbaba's DJ seemed to forget that a beat was necessary to dance to. So, Mad Hatter Productions ought to move to Londontown where we can make lots of money being awesome.
This weekend is the last for the Globe season, so I'm making it a Globe weekend, Merchant of Venice Saturday at 7:30 and Loves Labors Lost at 4:00 Sunday... only 5 pounds each for standing room, so not to bad all. AND IT'S SHAKESPEARE IN THE GLOBE. I'M SO EXCITED!

I finally got around to sending an e-mail to my wonderful teachers back at JMB, and it doubles as a sort of journal entry. So here it is (edited to be more journalistic, but bad grammar still intact).

Hi! I'm so sorry it's taken me so long to get in touch with all of you. I've been busy with learning and (as much as I hate to admit it) partying.

I love it here in England, London feels like my hometown already! I especially love where I'm at, the Richmond borough is very quiet and is gorgeous. My school is TINY, it's roughly the size of Bennett - but divided between two campuses. I feel like I'm in Hogwarts, complete with the castle, the ghosts (no joke - it's haunted over here, and the Petersham Hotel (one of the most haunted places in London) is right next door!). The only thing I'm missing is the uniforms and magic, but I have high hopes for the latter. I really enjoy all of my classes though, they're all small (my largest is 27 people) and discussion based. They're almost all incredibly theorectical too, which I found quite odd... so as long as I can justify my point I'm never wrong. Needless to say, I have a lot of fun with that. My favorite class is my Freshmen Seminar - Utopia/Dystopia. It's rather heavy in literature and philosophy - but still fascinating. We watch movies and TV shows in that class as well - I think that watching Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy was probably the most endearing thing.

I should probably have prefaced this - I'm terribly sick at the moment, thus the being indoors. So I'm not as coherent or as structured as I might normally be. My apologies.

My other classes are Intercultural Communications, World Cultural History (where I was instructed to forget all the history I learned in high school), Making Presenations, and Signs, Image, and Meaning (which is devoted to semiotics). I tested out of many of the Gen Eds due my AP scores so I'm able to focus on my major. If anyone ever wonders whether they should take their APs or not - do instruct them to, I wish I had taken more! My classes are almost all 3 hours straight, and only once a week (which I like). I also love not having a class on Monday, three-day weekends are probably the best thing ever. It also makes it convenient for traveling. For fall break I'm going to be visiting a friend in Greece, and for spring break I'm off to Cairo to be a parasite in my roommate's flat. I'm also planning three day weekends over in Ireland to visit my uncle, and France to visit my aunt. It's amazing how cheap travel is - once you're over here.

I have spent most of my time here penniless - which was an experience to itself. I haven't yet had a chance to explore London as much as I would like - but I have become intimate with the Richmond area. I picnic everyday at the Terrace Gardens (where you can feed squirrels from your hand - or have them sit in your lap!) or at Richmond Park (Henry VIII's hunting grounds). The deer at the Park are amazing, there are over 700 of them. Richmond Park is really just amazing in itself though, it is so vast - miles upon miles long. Whenever I imagined kings' hunting grounds, I never thought they would be so vast! I found the most gorgeous lake there though, it is straight from a painting. The only thing is it is infected with blue-green algae... so not a nice swimming hole. I also adore King Henry's Mound and the Poet's Corner. From King Henry's Mound you can see 10 miles away, straight to St. Pauls Cathedral. They have literally kept that view open, trimming all the bushes and trees so that the view stays the same.

I also love Hampton Courts, one of Henry VIII's castles. I actually worshipped there the other weekend, it was breathtaking to be taking communion in the same room as Henry VIII, and to be where Edward IV was baptised and Henry married Catherine Parr. A bonus point was that entry to the palace (normally 10.25 Pounds) was free for worshippers - a wonderful thing I learned afterwards. But the church itself was incredibly ornate, and the palace moreso. Oliver Cromwell actually stayed there for a bit, so it's a miracle most of it survived - but he evidentally took a liking to Henry's over 8,000 tapestries (which are spectacular) and kept them around. Neat thing about Hampton Court - half of the palace is from Henry's time, the other from William of Orange. The contrast is incredibly striking, William's is very baroque and light whereas Henry's is dark. Most of the gardens there are courtesy of William, who had them grown for his wife's birthday.

I actually have loads of photos - all of which are on facebook. BUT, you can seem them if you go to these links: http://richmondac.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2000780&l=ff28f&id=1227630078 http://richmondac.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2000821&l=6bece&id=1227630078 http://richmondac.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2000837&l=674cc&id=1227630078 AND to see what we Richmonders do when we're bored (AND to see my new dyed hair!) http://richmondac.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2000839&l=8095b&id=1227630078

Anyway, I probably should head to bed and focus on getting well.

I love being here so much. I think this was the perfect fit for me - I can only hope that everyone else was so lucky.

I'm dreadful at updating this - really, truly, dreadful.

Lots has happened since the last update, I got married for one thing. I had an affair with the bookstore boy (who has the best British accent ever). I have a daughter (my 16 year-old African roommate). I am hopelessly crushing on a professor (but this need not be discussed).

Tomorrow is the start of term party - it's going to be at Umbawba, one fo the top clubs here in London.

I'm going to do a more thorough update later. With explanations for all of the above.

Famous last words, I know.

I am currently traveling via TARDIS (Time and Relative Dimensions in Space) to the UK, as noted by the two dates and two times. Actually right now, I think, at least according to the map on board, we’ve only just crossed Canada - passing over St. John’s. But the map has been reading that for a couple of hours, actually. Other interesting facts via the map:
Ground speed: 598 mph
Altitude: 35000 feet
Temperature Outside: -56 F

The flight itself is comfortable. I’m surrounded by Richmonders, which is a comfort. On one side I have a newly made friend, a International Relations major, engaged, and sleeping (she took some year old sleeping pills to combat jetlag (am feeling slightly insomiac, the idea itself sounds tempting). On the other is a fellow Virginian, an experienced flier (who has been assisting me with troubling ethical questions, such as whether it was right or not to put my carryon in another’s overhead hanger (the verdict is yes, as everyone seems to be doing the same). As you can imagine I am the middle seat, in the middle row, in the back of the plane. It’s rather cozy, but makes going to the bathroom rather awkward (or so I imagine, not yet having attempted the feat). There is a nice collection of in-flight movies, I watched Blades of Glory (I heard it was funny… and after (surprisingly) enjoying Talledega Nights I decided to give it a try), a mediocre film, but I laughed a bit. Thankfully it wasn’t too deep in plot (not like I had expected it to be anyway), as I was distracted by the arrival of dinner: beef in a roast sauce (I don’t even know if such a thing really exists, but it gives you an idea, mashed potatoes, carrots, peas, salad, and a very delicious brownie with icing (you have no idea how good it was, the icing was a bit crunchy, the brownie itself warm, gooey, and delicious). All in all, rather appetizing.

The departure of the flight was a bit rough, we didn’t take off until around 7:30... There was a mechanical problem for our western engine… eep! Everything seems to be fine now though, thank goodness. Also, the airconditioning was not working properly until take off.. Making for a hot and steamy time simply sitting on the plane… for an hour.

NEWSFLASH: I am an amazing person.

That’s what you become, you see, when you loan a fellow passanger your headphones. An amazing person.

Now, what was very difficult was leaving the family behind. I already miss all of them terribly. Now friends, I adore you, but family will always hold a special place in heart - a precedence in my heart above almost all else. And realizing that I won’t see my mom, dad, brother until December is really heartbreaking. Not seeing Laura until then is still painful, but I had an ease with that that doesn’t come with the others - Laura’s been at college for the past four years… Mom, Dad, and Ben have always been there.

NEWSFLASH: Have begun crossing the Atlantic Ocean at 10:11 PM EST.

So saying goodbye at the airport was like the floodgates crashing. I don’t even know how I made it to the boarding area. There were tears at the goodbye… and tears threatening to gush on the transport to the Gate (I was alone at this point… and did I feel it!) Mom, Dad, Ben and Laura, I know I’ve said this before: but I love you. And I miss you. Right now.

August 28, 2007
16:49 GMT
12:49 EST

I arrived in London at around 8:00 GMT, 4:00 EST. All my attempts to sleep were futile. I think I was resting for a cumulative of thirty minutes. So, I guess since I woke up at 8:00 EST (12:00 GMT) on the 27th… that would put me at going a total of 28 hours of going without sleep? And, in order to combat jetlag I can’t go to sleep until 21:00... Am dying as I type.

The airplane sleeping area was cramped, a bit too hot (yet at the same time too cold… so I would shrug off the blanket only to be clutching for it an few minutes later). The girl next to me, the engaged one, was snoring (although they toned down considerably once I shook her (at her previous instruction, mind you)). The light overhead of me kept turning on, attacking my eyes with its’ blazen brightness. I cannot wait to sleep in my bed.

Speaking of that… they have a dinner assigned in five minutes - I better book it!

August 29
11:37 GST
7:37 EST

I love to sleep. Love it love it love it. I feel so much better today.

August 29
15:37 GST
11:37 EST

Alright, where did I leave off? I arrived at Heathrow at… around 8 I think, in the morning. I was then nominated the leader of our little Richmond group (who were all wonderful, I think nothing bonds people like 7 hours of torment on a plane) and got us through the passport checker (in a record 20 minutes (we went group line… so much faster). Although, did get a bit worried at one point, the officer asked me for a letter from the University saying I could go - something that was required for my VISA… which I hadn’t brought. So I was like… um (it should be noted I’m wearing the school’s t-shirt) and look behind me at the group (it really was rather stupid for them to have nominated me as leader, as I was THE only one who had never traveled out of country) and go “did anyone bring their letter?” Blank looks met me. Then Joel went “I did!” But… as we discovered when he went through his folder and presented a ton of Richmond documents… he did not have the crucial one. I think the lady felt bad for us though, and let us go through regardless.

Customs was a breeze, we literally just walked through it all - didn’t get stopped once.

Then we had to wait for the rest of the students flying from America.

It. Took. Hours. Literally. I was at Heathrow until 11.00 that afternoon.

I liked driving to the school though, I was able to make some observations that are rather interesting. Like the British, instead of saying “Yield” say “give way”. All the streets are really narrow, literally one step off the sidewalk (which can be more than 4 feet itself) is the road. Most of the houses are duplexes, and almost all of them look the same, although the owners have tried to differentiate the halves with different colors (a bit weird looking).

The first song I heard in Britain was “What’s Love Got to Do With It” courtesy of their MAGIC FM, Britains favorite station. Or so they proclaim.

When I arrived on campus it was the standard, register move to your dorm. Lunch was from 12-2... I ate two tomatoes and munched on a very waxy apple (I think this was courtesy of the jetlag though). According to plane buddy Tim, the burgers were horribly burned. Dinner was slightly better. My first day was basically spent exploring and meeting new people.. Also ensuring that I wouldn’t have to take the placement tests, which were today. And while most of campus was doing that, there about 15 of us who actually did scheduling. It turns out I carried away from high school 20 credits, and so I’ll be a sophomore next semester and in Kensington next year. Pretty sweet actually. I’m really excited about my classes, despite the fact that they’re almost all 3 hours long and in the evening.

Campus itself, it should be noted, is gorgeous. Truly stunning. It's also very very small, literally 10 mintues tops is all it takes to walk all over. But I kind of like it - it's cozy.

Anyway, I think that’s enough, don’t you?

So here’s a video of my dorm:

CORRECTIONS: I live in the Upper Cottage, not Lower. My brain frizzled. Also, after making the video my roommate arrived, convenient, eh?

And some pictures of campus can be found at http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v90/Jabberwocky6789/Richmond%20Campus/

London... Tomorrow! [26 Aug 2007|11:18am]
[ mood | ecstatic ]

32 hours from now I will be on my way to London. Tomorrow I'll be saying goodbye to my house, my family, my town for roughly four months.


I AM SO EXCITED YOU WOULD NOT BELIEVE!!!

It really is hard to imagine that I'll be off on my own come tomorrow. That it will cost around $700 if I ever want to come home. That... that... I'll be surrounded by those gorgeous accents in the near future!

It's so weird, actually. I still feel like I'm that little freshmen going off to high school, it's hard to realize that I'm going to college now... in ENGLAND.

So, with this new stage in life comes new responsibilities. And since I have new responsibilities, it's basically the equivalent of a new year. So here are some New Years Resolutions:
1. Maintain GPA of at least 3.5 (or come home because you lost scholarship)
2. Stop procrastinating until the last minute... the second to the last minute is satisfactory.
3. By X-Mas, tour half of all the free museums in London.
4. Update blog at least once a week.

Alright, there's four. It is a good start, I think.

Anyway, next time I update... I'll be in London! Ta!

Neville Longbottom - a hottie? [09 Jul 2007|10:04am]
I am stunned.

I always thought Neville's actor (Matthew Lewis) was a little cute... and figured, yes, he'll grow up to be a cutie.

But a hottie? No way.

I was wrong, he now has hot potential (potential being the key word). He just looks so different! Look!

Definite improvement, me thinks.

Graduation was last night. It was the end of high school, officially, and the beginning of something completely new.

I can't describe how amazing the sight of my class walking in, cap and gown, to the civic center was. I was speechless as the red walked in, then the white... and the final meeting. It hit me then that this was my class. I was part of this great group, and my God, we were graduating. I may never see these people again in my life, but how amazing is it that here we all are: together? People who never talked together, or hated one another, or loved one another... all joined together at this moment... this one moment in time. It's just phenomenal. It's a vision I'll carry with me the rest of my life.

As the speeches went on and the names were called, my mind drifted to this last senior year. I've been very lucky this year, I have had soo many dreams come true, it's unbelieveable. I couldn't with for a better senior year. I was able to be Elizabeth Bennett and kiss Mr. Darcy. I was able to sing in Rock and Roll Revival. I was able to be an officer in drama, and people listened to me this year. I was able to head the school newspaper with little to no drama (that in itself is a miracle). I was able to receive that acceptance letter to the college of my dreams. I was able to speak at my graduation.

Not all my high school years were so excellent, in fact, I had some dreadful moments. Like getting booed freshman year. I face that failure every day I wake up, it's etched into my memory. And it still hurts... but I learned a lot that day, about people, about the world, and about politics. I became cynical.

But the years went on, I was sophomore class president. Then I founded The Kelp, and the world began to fall apart at the seams, courtesy of my unwillingness to change a decision of mine. I don't regret my decision, I will never regret it. I did the right thing, even if it did cause me to lose many friends and to incur the wrath of many. It was worth it. And despite this horrible event, I became less cynical. Because I learned that I had true friends, friends who would stand by me even when everyone else was ready to hang, draw, and quarter me. Yes, Nicole, I'm talking about you. There are some awful people in the world, but not everyone is like that. And for every five human beings who are selfish, cruel, and hateful there is that one who cares about the good, kind, and wonderful parts of our world. And after that, I looked around and realized how many people meet these qualifications.

I'm not going to lie, throughout highschool I've been that weird loner who hangs out with a bunch of people. In my mind I'm off in my own world, seperated from the crowd. I've had a lot of friends, and they've meant a lot to me. But after Junior year, I really learned to value my friendships in a completely different way, and they became a part of me. The exemption to all of this is Meredith, who refused to leave me alone even when I did my best to push her away. Meredith who persisted in calling me and talking, even when I never called back. Meredith who was always ready to be my partner, MINE, first before everyone else. But to go back, high school taught me a lot about friends. I learned about the respect one must have for everybody, and the love to. I met Kellie, Kate, Cassie, Dan... you know who you all are. We were friends, maybe not the best of, but friends. And your friendships taught me about friendships. And all of this was in highschool. Just four years of my life. High school has changed me... for the better.

I had a lot to think about while I was on that stage, looking out on the sea of my classmates. I don't think I ever thought so hard about highschool, about graduation, and what it exactly means. Am I sad that high school is over? I don't think so. It's changed me. I've learned, I've lived, I've loved. But I'm going to continue changing, learning, living, loving... high school isn't the end. It's going to follow me the rest of my life. Graduation really is just getting that diploma, having that physical, tangible symbol describing what you've been through. And that's it. You've had the mental and spiritual effects of highschool etched into your mind from that first day you walked into it's halls.

I'm just so lucky that I don't regret any of it.

What makes you pretty?Your style
What makes you loveable?How dorky you are
What makes you fun?Your love for everything
What makes you irresistable?Your laugh
What makes you cute?How you talk


I don't know whether to feel insulted by that one or not.

ANYWAY: I have made my college choice, it's off to London for this chicka. I'm quite excited... no, scratch that. I'm so excited I want to jump up and down, scream, and then eat fifteen peanutbutter jelly sandwhiches.
