Pictures of You, Pictures of Me- Post #232

Indescribable, incomprehensible, indefinable, idealistic, illusory, insouciant, intricate, infamous, illustrious, ineffable Iona.

I am definitely ready for school to start. Well, as soon as I finish Great Expectations, find and do my Chem packet, get school supplies, and refill my entire wardrobe. Then I'm ready.

The past couple of days have been so...blah. Rain. Cold. Boredom. Schoolwork, no one to talk to, nothing to do. Even the drum sectional was canceled. Tom came over for a little while, and that was nice, but only while it lasted.

Hurry up and get all this over with so you can get on with your life...

Half of me says hole yourself up in your room tomorrow and read all of Great Expectations. The other half says you probably could, but no way do you have enough self control to do that these days.

So I've been editing a couple photos. Well, three. They're all here. I'm actually kind of proud of some parts of these. Anyways, here we go...

This one I dubbed Dream the Rainbow, because there's a really faint rainbow aura. I'm proud of that, and of getting the sketchy flowers and butterflies in the back to be tie-dyed. The picture is of the day I got my hair cut.

This one is what it says, A Moment to Remember. The whole thing is just a brush I downloaded. I'm just proud that I figured out how to change the color of the flower without the photo outline, and for getting the photo in there. The picture was taken by my dad of Tom and me when we walked to a waterfall.

I actually really, really like this one. It's me now mixed with me in 2001, so aged 9, mixed with my own homemade night sky, mixed with some words and accents. And I think it suits. I don't know. It made me happy.

Hmm. The HSM2 songs, in order from worst to best (says me)...

10. You Are the Music in Me (Sharpay Version) - Whether this was supposed to sound odd or not, this song...is just a mixture of overdone, creepy, and depressing. And Zac Efron's high notes are twitch-worthy. Just a little.
9. Work This Out - The drumming on the pots and pans is a little to wanna-be Tarzan. And the pay day bit is just odd.
8. Fabulous - Not last only because it is mildly entertaining and slightly mock-worthy.
7. What Time Is It - Good rhythm and all, but a little to close to last movie's hit "We're All in This Together." Just overdone, I suppose.
6. Bet On It - Like the tune and the energy and everything. Still a little do-gooder, and Efron's dance moves are questionable, but nevertheless an enjoyable one.
5. All For One - Danceable. And Miley Cyrus randomly shows up. Another, slightly less generic What Time is It full cast dance party song.
4. I Don't Dance - Hahaha, I so enjoy this song. And the line "You never know" just sounds cool.
3. Everyday - Feel good song. Original enough to be memorable.
2. Gotta Go My Own Way - I completely cried at this song. Stupid? Probably. Pathetic? Almost definitely. But when he sings "Why do you have to go?" it's so harmonically heartbreaking...
1. You Are the Music in Me - Way cute. I like how is starts out soft with Kelsi singing, then Kelsi and Gabriella, then Gabriella and Troy, then a good chunk of the cast at the end. The transition is sweet.

Huh. It's 12:17, so I'll probably head off to bed. Night all.
