Tell Me Something I Don't Know

I found a cool feature on Facebook. You can change your language to PIRATE! How cool/funny is that? Your main page is your Home Port. Your friends are Maytees. Logout is Abandon Ship. Pictures are Paintins. Birthdays are Baaaarthdays. The Wall is Scroll. To put a wall post is Squwak(I don't know). But its cool and funny and I can understand it(which is a little weird).

Mainly that's a funny thing I found out. 

Now I'm off to do my Bio Homework=[ Sorry this is so short but nothing else happened today. It rained. That's it. 

-Hail=]

PS: Everyone should watch Animaniacs and Spongebob. Best Cartoons EVER!!!!!!!!

*Sighs* Its Sunday=[

The weekend is over=[ I think it went a little too quickly. It was kind of sucky out because it was raining so I didn't go out so much. It's also the last day RENT played in Theaters and I couldn't go because the tickets are 20 bucks and my mom doesn't have that much money=[ So now I'm a little upset that I couldn't see it but I'll try to look for it online. Oh and I won a RENT Memorablilia thing. It has the dvd, buttons and magnets=] 

I didn't do my homework(I'm a bad a-- =]) I may do it later tonight or tomorrow morning. 

What else...

Oh I was trying to win on Z100 an iPod nano and a $100 iTunes gift card, Sadly I didn't win=[ It rang and then it said 256 and it hung up. Wtf? 

Anyways, I got up at like 9:15 today so I was watching my good friend Spongebob=D Spongebob is my homeboy(Word) Lol sorry I acted like a ganster.

So mainly that's it. If anything major exciting between now and later, I'll blog it=]

And the Man in the back said Everyone Attack and it turned into a Ballroom Blitz

OK so yesterday was "Dancing with the Stars" I occasionally watch it(if I'm not on the computer doing Facebook/myspace/AIM or Blogging). So my favorite is Lance Bass. He was in the band NSYNC(You know, the boy band from the 90s-early 00s.) Yeah him. So during the show the Jonas Brothers performed! They are a great band to listen to(and if you haven't listen to them, you better). They are three Brothers; Kevin(Turning 21 on November 5th), Joe(Turned 19 on August 15th) and Nick(Turned 16 on September 16th). They are awesome and I do want to see them in concert(if ticket sales weren't so expensive or that it didn't sell out in 5 minutes). 

Ok so anyways Michelle and Kimberly stopped by my home and got me donuts!!!! Yay! My donut withdrawl lasted for...5 days. I need to go to Dunkin Donut anonymous(along with Harry Potter/Twilight/RENT/Wicked/Chocolate/Cake/Chocolate Milk/Ice Cream Anonymous). Well I didn't have them yet because when I got them, I had to have dinner but I should have them for a snack later on tonight. 

But mainly that's all that exciting that happened today. What's exciting about school? Mainly its boring because for somethings we may never see in our lives again. I rather be here blogging or sleeping in. 

Anyways That's Mainly it. Oh and Listen to this song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJyH-oH_aqk
Its called River Flows in You by Yiruma. Its a great piano melody. And should be Bella's Lullaby in
Twilight(But Robert Pattinson(Plays Edward) is writing it)

Cause Everything is Rent!!!!!!!!!!

For those who don't know me I am a RENTHead and I'm proud of it. I am watching the 2nd disk of the RENT DVD I have and It shows the documentary on Jonathan Larson and the history of RENT. Which is now going to be the main topic of this blog. So heres my version of the history of RENT:

In 1989, 29 year old Jonathan Larson composed a few songs for a new Rock-Opera musical. Two years later, he talked to a playwright named Billy Aronson to discuss about bringing musical theater to the MTV generation. Larson worked in the Moondance theater while composing this new musical called RENT. 

On January 25th, 1996, hours before the first off broadway performance of RENT and hours after he had his first and only interview, Larson died of a Aortic aneurysm at age 35. He never got to see what his musical become. The day of the first perfomance was canceled and was only run to friends and family of Jonathan Larson. After it premiered, preview ticket sales went through the roof and became one of the hottest tickets in town. On April 29th, 1996, RENT was moved to the Neaterlander Theater to make its Broadway debut.

The Original Cast was:
Mark Cohen-Anthony Rapp 
Roger Davis-Adam Pascal 
Mimi Marquez-Daphnie Rubin-Vega 
Maureen Johnson-Idina Menzel 
Joanne Jefferson-Fredi Walker 
Tom Collins-Jesse L. Martin
Angel Dumott Schunard-Willson Jermain Herida 
Benjamin Coffin the Third-Taye Diggs 

After RENT debuted, it went to be a big seller having two tours in the USA and having productions in 43 countires and translated in 22 languages. There is also a school edition which eliminates the course language(aka removing most of the play). There was also a movie that came out in 2005 but Fredi and Daphnie didn't protray there original roles as the others. They were cast by Tracie Thoms(Joanne) and Rosario Dawson(Mimi). On June 1st, 2008 RENT was suposed to close because of lack of ticket sales. However, when the announcement of the closing became broadcasted, ticket sales went up.

After 12 brilliant years and 5140 performances, RENT closed Sunday, September 7th, 2008The final performance was filmed and will show in selective theaters this Wednesday(9-24), Thursday(9-25), Saturday(9-27) and Sunday(9-28)


Does it seem, what's the word, weird/wrong to be sad that a broadway show left the great white way? I loved RENT so much, it was one of the first shows I fell in love with and seeing it not there anymore is weird. I went to the 5000th performance there and I wrote on the wall of the theater. I was in tears when the show I went to was over(and well because of the story as well). It was basically the first and last time I saw it and I'll never forget it.


I'm closing this blog by saying Thank you Jonathan Larson. Without his composing skills, we would of never heard of RENT or we would of never seen how far it came. I'm still a little upset that it closed along with a few other RENTHeads but there's a message in his show that no one should ever forget;

Theres No Day but Today<333333

Vienna Waits For you...

*Yawns* Its 10:00 and I'm tired now for some reason. I guess because I was up at 9 today. It was my last day working as a lifeguard=[ The upside was that I got paid=D so at least I have some money now. I am applying for the ice rink insted of the Rec center. The Rec seems cool but it doesn't pay as much as the Swim Center or the Ice Rink. But if I don't get either job, I guess I'm stuck at home with nothing to do and not getting money. At least when you work you do something and you talk to people and get to know them. I was only working at the Swim Center for a month but I got to know some people. 

I found this photo editing site called Picnik.com. Its a cool eiditing site and I'm doing a few pictures. Heres what I done now:
Jackson Rathbone Original-
Jackson Rathbone with Picnik-Photobucket

Joe Jonas Original- Photobucket

Joe Jonas with Picnik- Photobucket

I can only edit the eyes and make everything else black and white. Hey I just started a few days ago. But I will be good at editing more. Maybe I can try making the eyes different colors and the what not.

Well I am signing off now. I have school (unfortunately) and I need to do Bio homework(and I'm not). So I am going to watch the final game in the House that Ruth Built=[

What About Now?

What about today? What if you're making me all that I was meant to be? What if this love never went away? What if it's lost behind words we could never find? Baby before it's too late. What about now?

The chorus from What about Now by Daughty the video is really touching. It shows about some the people who aren't as fortunate as us. Who try to make ends meat every night or who try to have clean clothes at least. Its a touching video and it makes you want to go to where ever the video is and to help these poor people. We should try to help the world. We should try to stop Providy, Cancer, Hunger, AIDS, Global Warming, Polution, everything like that. Its changing the world today and may change it forever. So why not change it now? Why not change it today?

What I did today

An original title right? Well heres something brief I did last night/today:

My computer was screwy and it took a lot of times to send IMs or respond in chat rooms. And when ever they responded while I'm typing something, I pressed Enter and it sended it uncompleted=\ Sometimes computers are very screwy/sucky. Later, I went to get Ice Cream with my bro and Silvia(his Girlfriend) at a place called Maggie Moos. Its like a coldstone creamery where they put the ice cream on the silver plate and they combine the toppings in it. Yeah it was like that. Mine was Chocolate Ice cream with Brownies, Oreos and Rainbow Sprinkles=DDD SOOO GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!! I had a sugar rush for 20 minutes and then it became a sugar meltdown=[. Ever had that when you eat a lot of sugary stuff and then you're hyper and then you just become tired/lazy/all sugared out? Yeah I was like that last night.

Today: I got up and got my usual Chocolate Galzed Donuts in Dunkin Donuts=] But now the DD in the Plaza is closing for a few weeks for renovations! Now where am I supposed to get donuts now for breakfast???? Besides the point the donuts were good(as usual) and then afterwards I went bowling. My score was an 88, 80 and a 76. Eh I guess that was ok but I want to do better. After Bowling, I went to the Libarary fair for an hour. It was ok. I bought a knock off Chanel purse for 8 bucks(Can you say Fake?) and I got a lot of VHS tapes for free.(For those who don't know what VHS Tapes are they are Pre Dvd). I entered for a Target Gift card, Two autographed Giants Plaques, An Autograph Giant football and an Autographed Eli Manning poster with Two tickets to see them October 5th
I won Nothing=[[[
But I tried and that's all you have to do right? 

Tomorrow is my last day as a lifeguard for the summer=[ Meaning I'm not getting paid anymore=[ I need to get another job(s). Maybe I can try the Rec center or the Ice Rink we have. I think the Ice Rink is the same hours and pay as the pool but I got to apply to that.

Anyways tonight I'm gonna watch Across the Universe(Again) and Maybe I'll get ice cream.

Later Gators!

Yay Friday!!!!!

Today is FRIDAY!!! YAYY WEEKEND IS HERE!!!!!!!!!!!=DDDDD

Except for the fact that I have homework during the weekend=[ But theres a 2 to 1 chance that I may do it Monday morning=] 


Anyways Halloween is in a few weeks. I know I'm 16 but hey I LOOVE the free candy=DDD So anyways I have an idea about my halloween costume. I'm thinking of one of the Voultri from the Twilight saga(If you do NOT know about this amazing book series then you better read it or the Voultri(Vampire Mafia in the books) will kill you*Sinsiter Laugh*) Ok so anyways I'm thinking of getting an Angel of Darkness costume with a hooded cloak, black wig and white makeup. 
Or I'll be Alice Cullen from Twilight. I'd just need fashion clothes(Alice loves fashion) the wig and makeup.
But if neither plans work then I'll be something else, Maybe someone from RENT.


So anyways Tomorrow I have bowling=] I have a 72 average and I want at least an 80 or 90.
Tomorrow is also the Library fair so I may stop by after bowling.
I was talking to this girl in my Clothing and Fashion class named Laura. She's an amazing singer.
So anyways I asked her if we can do RENT or Le Miserables for the school play. She said no
because all of the leads there are mainly guys and we don't have great guy singers. So I think its
the choice of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat or Annie. I rather do Joseph than Annie.
I'd try out for either one and I wouldn't care if I was just a background person.


Well I am closing this blog with a few words:
"Early to rise,and early to bed, makes man healthy but socially dead"(GUESS THE SHOW!)

Goodnight Everybody=DD

Hail=]

PS: I may do another Blog later tonight








PPS: The show was Animaniacs. God I miss that show and the quote Goodnight Everybody is
from there as well.

What's Victoria's Secret?

A brilliant Rick Springfield Song for the title. Rick Springfield isn't that bad of an artist. He's a really good singer. He's also in the soap opera "General Hospital". Ok well anyways I'm here to blog about my day so I guess here it is

I get up and have two chocolate glazed donuts

I go get dress and go to school

I then doodle in Bio(I got a 77 on the test=\) while McKenna went over it.

I go to Gym and walk with Julia, Kimberly, Michelle and Mariel

I then go to Germann, Lunch and Clothing and fashion(We learned how to do the threading in the machine.)

I signed up for two clubs today: REBEL and The school Newspaper. I want to be in more clubs because it looks great on applications for college(plus they seem cool clubs to join. Just wish we had a Drama/Theater club like we did in Middle School)

So today was the Bonfire. Eh... on a scale of 1-10 I give it a 4.5. I thought it was just for the school but no, the entire community came. Then we went on the baseball field and watched the bonfire(which was cool...except that it was out in 5 minutes) But it was kind of a whole lot of nothing. Oh well this is Secaucus. We're lucky we can afford Toys R us, Babies R us, TJ Max and Sports Authority but we can't afford a decent bonfire(let alone a longer one). 

Now I'm here in my PJs doing this blog. I just had Ice Cream=] and now I'm going to check my Facebook and my other sites. 

Till Tomorrow(That or later on tonight)

Hail=]

First Post

Hi. Well my first blog post on this blog of mine. Maybe I can start off with the basics:

My name is Hailee(Or Hail to some people). I am 16 and living in the state of New Jersey(Home of so many brilliant people). I am a sophmore at SHS(Class of 2011). I was born in North Bergen, Grew up in Jersey City and I've moved to Secaucus about 10 years ago. I'm a brunette(and Edward prefers brunettes=](More on the obsessions later). ) and my eye color is hazel/green or something like that. I don't want to drone on and on about my entire life so that'll be a blog later. I HATE being judged for looks(Blog on that later). Anything else I should say? Hm... Oh yeah: Incase you didn't figure out I LOVE RENT, Wicked, Twilight and Harry Potter. Mainly I think that's it. Any questions then I'll post a blog=]

Hail=]
