High School Musical?

Who is that on the left there? Who is that extrordinarily good looking chick who should probably button up her shirt a little more? That's "Kelsi" from "High School Musical". It's not really Kelsi. That's the actress being extremely out of character. Olesya Rulin, the Russian born, Eastern Orthodox, animal lover, actress who I think is the best in person in any of the High School Musical movies. I've only seen one but I still think she's the best. When I say she's being extremely out of character I mean that in High School Musical she plays a timid little pianist/playwright who, like all timid people in these types of movies, stands up to the antagonist at the end and pulls her hair out of it's bun and turns out to really be the hottest of them all. Of course if you're me then you thought she was the hottest even before that. Anyway, I've just been doing a little research and it seems that Kelsi is also in a horror movie called "Vampire Chicks With Chainsaws". And after watching the trailer I've just got to say that anybody who thought she was a sweet nice little pianist and who liked her that way would be quite shocked. Though vampires are pretty cool, I still like her better as a timid pianist.

Anyway, I don't know how I ended up spending so much time talking about my dear Olesya. Maybe the fact that she's Russian and Orthodox, which still isn't Protestant but close enough, makes me think that like Hayley Williams of Paramore I might have the slightest chance of somehow meeting one of them and falling madly in love and so on and so forth. You know how my dreams go. Not likely though. Unless I somehow get a part in High School Musical 6.5, because I'm sure they're going to make at least that many. I could be this nerd who finds out he has a passion for rapping. I'd been like the Kevin G dude from "Mean Girls". Mathlete baby. Anyway, why am I talking about HSM (High School Musical)? Because my sister just got it for Christmas and forced me to watch it. And believe it or not I've actually fallen under the evil disney spell. Creme brulee! I actually like it! The movie, not creme brulee. I've never had creme brulee. But it sounds good. Anyway, I just love that "Stick to the Status Quo" song. It's so much fun! But don't watch the MadTV parody. It might be realistic, but it's not funny.

I know you're all waiting for me to say it so I will now end your suspense. HAPPY NEW YEAR! I'm actually sad to see 2007 go. I had a pretty good year this year. Last year I was glad to watch the writhing death of 2006, but 2007 was good. And now I face 2008 with apprehension. So much is going to happen this year. I'm jumping off a cliff into a dark abyss and praying that a passing cloud will catch me. Some people might think that's not a good analogy for going to college, but I'm absolutely terrified. This year I will move internationally. And I will do it alone. And I will be moving to a place that is far more foreign to me than Estonia. America is very foreign to me. The people, the culture. All of it. And as far as I can tell college life is like a whole new culture in itself. There's some great quote about how when you've become comfortable it means it's time to move on. And I've definitely gotten comfortable. But I haven't gotten bored. And that's why it will be hard to leave. I love it here. And I love the people. I don't know how I'll do it. But all I know is that I will. I'll probably fill my MP3 player up full of rebelious music and rebel against myself (I actually do that rather often, because of the large difference what I want and what is right for me) and my fear and then not just drop off the cliff but hurtle myself with all the force of a nuclear warhead.

Another freaky thing that will be happening this year is my birthday. Of course I'm happy about the way that this international holiday will fill do a little to fill my personal coffers and fill my room with junk. But what I'm freaked out about is that I'm turning 18. That's a big number. And It means that time is running out for me to sit on my butt playing "Perfect Dark". I need to get to work making myself a useful person. And last time I checked my N64 had no way of transmitting my controls to some secret agent robot that is off saving the world with my help. So that's another thing I'm freaked out about, that I'm turning 18. All very freaky. But I think I'm blogging now. And though I think I had more I meant to say my little brother wiped it from my mind with constant distractions. And this post is long enough now anyway. So Cya!
