For my final performance in a play at my school, I am playing a girl named Goneril.
Not, not gonorrhea. Goneril.
….UH. Totally fine with who this character is. Actually requires acting, but the name? What the… GONERIL?

For a day or two, I was SERIOUSLY considering lowering my standards for a guy.
Thank goodness my brain came back. WHEW! That could’ve been bad… Now I can’t even stand to look at the guy.

The Theatre
Ever since I was about 6 years old, I’ve been acting.
I acted in the church Christmas pageant ever since I was 2. Yeah, that’s right, 2 years old. Me. A sheep, an angel, etc. As I started getting older, I got more talking roles. I ended up playing every main female character and then ended up playing males.
Around the age of 6, though, I was introduced to the local high school...
The school shooting at Chardon High School is breaking my heart. When I heard about it yesterday on my way to work, I was so emotionally distraught from it. Today, the death toll has risen to three.
A part of myself never wants to have kids just because I never want to bring another soul into living in this crazy, messed up world.

I’m so chill today and I have my brace off and I’m not in total agony.
I just finished playing my violin for almost two hours. I have to take a break and eat something and shower before school later.
Life is really peaceful and AMAZING when I don’t have to rush trying to squeeze last minute homework in, which is usually how it works on Tuesdays.
To hear the sheet music I am...
This is why my writing is so awesome. The things...
Me: Did you hear Natalie Portman might be secretly engaged?
My brother: You shut your lying mouth!
Me: No, it's true. Everyone thinks she married her baby daddy.
My brother: Where's the nearest cliff?
Me: Uh...
My brother: I'm done with this world
It’s kind of sad how I don’t want to be bothered by anyone or anything right now. Gotta LOVE diving into a book and being completely invested in its story.
How thrilling!! I’m at work reading Macbeth aloud and not paying enough attention on my cleaning projects.
Can’t wait to get off. Gotta go straight to school. I hate Monday’s. I get up at 9 and I am busy all day until I get home between 10:30-11. I can’t wait for 11. I’m going to take the longest shower and then crawl into bed and finish reading Othello.

I hate when someone says they are going “HAM” on someone but this is exactly what I am doing right now with this complete and utter imbecile on Facebook. He is saying Moneyball was the best film of the year an then went on to criticize The Artist.
He is saying that if you looked away from the screen, you missed the film. He said “part of the fun to see a movie is not havein to...

My essay for class! Any criticism would be welcome
On Front Porches
With Jackson there was quiet solitude. Just to sit and look at the landscape. An inner quietness. After dinner, to sit on the back porch and look at the light. No need for talking. For any kind of communication. – Lee Krasner
Meeting people can be an exciting event, if you make it one. But before you even meet someone, the first thing that you notice is his appearance. What does...

Ever know you shouldn’t but you know that when the time comes, you are going to anyway?
…Josh is on his way over.
Everything I wanted to get done today, is done. Now I can go make my family dinner during the commercials for The Oscars Red Carpet.
So once I’m done eating, all I will have to do is clean up the kitchen and lay in bed for hours and watch these fine film folks win awards and get mad when the idiots win.

I have no idea why this never posted. I wrote this...
Garrett: Hey Shelley?
Me: Yeah?
Garrett: How long do Twinkies last?
Me: I don't know, why?
Garrett: Cause I found one downstairs and I thought it was one from the ones I got yesterday that fell out of the box.... But the box still has them all in there so...
Me: When was the last time there were Twinkies downstairs?
Garrett: Uh... Like over a year ago? I never had them downstairs before and I've been living down there for 2 years.
Me: Oh. Well, you're probably gonna die soon.
Garrett: *25 minutes later, throwing up*
Me: I was kidding! Don't die!!!
There is a serious difference between having a blog and having a Tumblr.
My blog is serious and has a lot to do with my writing and what I’m reading. This is just a place where I share songs that I’m listening to, posting random pictures, etc. Kind of like a weird/twisted version of Facebook to a lot of people I don’t personally know. I think I personally only know about 13 of...

5 Random Facts
5. If I am having a hard time going to sleep at night, I create a story in my head and it plays like a movie.
4. I like to drive in the summer even if I have nowhere to go. I will just drive up the lake, windows down, music up, and just drive.
3. I like going somewhere I’ve never been and getting lost. I always look for the most interesting-looking store I can and go in, buy something...
“We watch that [the waves crashing on the shore] for a while and then Scottie...”

Me: The Oscars are on tonight! I want to finishing writing my story.
Garrett: Who cares about the Oscars?
Me: I do! Duh.
Mom: Garrett, you know she has a movie addiction.
Me: This is a fact.
Garrett: Robert De Niro and Natalie Portman are going to win them all.
Me: And my brother is addicted to them, not films.
Mom: What are they nominated for?
Me: Nothing.
Garrett: Doesn't matter. Natalie Portman will win them all.
Me: What about De Niro?
Garrett: There's gotta be a first in Oscar history for ties.
Me: You're an idiot.
Garrett: De Niro for president!
I am halfway done with my checklist for the day. Now I get to spend an hour or two writing a section of my story. Hopefully after I’m done, I can run to the store before the Oscars. I don’t want to go during the show. Once the show is on, I’m done with being productive for the night.

The Oscars
Only award show I watch. The Grammys leave out too many artists so I don’t care, the Golden Globes bore me, I don’t watch enough TV to understand the Emmys, etc.
So now I have to do a few things before they come on:
clean my room
bathe myself
print off my homework
write a section from my story in 3rd person omniscient
And maybe run to the store and buy more shampoo? MAYBE....

I went to sleep last night and I had 16 anonymous messages. I woke up and saw I had 27. 27.
You creeps made me have to get on my actual computer so I can turn anonymous off. My Tumblr app on my phone needs to include settings. Pain in the butt that’s for sure.

This lady in drive thru pissed me off by being the definition of ghetto. She snapped on my coworker so I went to the window and killed her with my smile. She was shocked that I went to the window.
I told her that it wasn’t my coworker’s fault that the prices changed. She starting getting real ghetto then saying it wasn’t my business and that I was between her and the little...
