"les mis"

instead of studying for my rather large honors old testament test (on friday), i watched the movie "les mis" tonight.

now, i am a huge fan of musical theater, so i thought that netflix sent me a musical in the mail. (yay!) well. . . let me tell you, my friends, i waited for about an hour to hear the characters break out into song & dance & it did not happen! there was no singing! i was too lazy to look at the little envelope the movie came in, but it turns out that the version i received was NOT the singing version. . . . sad day :(

i can't wait until the day when "wicked" is on the big screen. i'm sure i'm not the only one who's imagined a giant green alphaba on the big screen singing "defy gravity". oh yes, there will come a day when my fantasy can become a reality. at least, i hope.

sometimes i wish my life could be a giant musical. imagine. . . walking to class & suddenly peppy, upbeat music blares & everyone around you breaks out into a perfectly choreographed dance routine! witty lyrics & beautiful harmonies surround you & you're lifted into the air. your life seems so romantic now. all because you live in a musical. . . .

okay, stop me now! i need someone to slap me in the face w/ a leather glove like in "the princess bride". if i go on any longer, i'll have lyrics written & choreography for a friday morning's "opening number".

blessings!
