You want to know about me? I feel special! Okay, where do I start? I'm teenage scifi geek with an old soul, who just happens to suffer from chronic depression. Not enough info? Fine. I dream of becoming an actress, and I am determined to make that dream come true, so I've got that going for me. I'm a sucker for a good revamped fairy tale, and I can usually be found singing my heart out in my bedroom. If you want to know more about me, feel free to ask.

  • Audition song help (not looking for a song, but how to skip over the speaking parts in it)?

    I'm auditioning to play either Rizzo or Frenchie in Grease, and I'm using the song Little Known Facts from You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown. The song has speaking portions, and I was wondering how I should go about skipping over those. The casting notice said to prepare a song, no mention of sheet music, so I'm assuming they just want me to sing without accompaniment. Help?

  • Ideal place to start up a civilization?

    Right, so lets forget about industrilization, and various human conflicts-- we'll just sort of pretend none of that exists for the sake of this question... Where do you think would be the ideal place to start a civilization would be and why?

  • Harry Potter fic finding help wanted?

    Alright, if anyone knows of or can find these fics, I would be very grateful.

    1) I originally found this one on fanfiction.net. This is post Deathly Hallows. Draco invited Harry to the Malfoy Manor, and slipped something into his food so that he could kiss him/tell Harry how he felt about him without repercussions for Harry (Malfoy did it so that if anyone found out, Harry could say that he was drugged) There was a story from Malfoy's point of view as well as Harry's.

    2) Also found on fanfiction.net. Alternate version of Deathly Hallows, and pretty long. Harry is captured by Death Eaters at the Malfoy Manor, and Draco frees him. Harry convinces his fellows to take Draco with them. They end up getting together. At one point Draco teaches Ron how to make these barrier/trap things used by Death Eaters so he can make a "virgin trap". It's a lot better than I make it sound, I swear.

    3) Found somewhere on livejournal. Set after OOP and before Deathly Hallows, Sirius comes back from beyond the veil. He can only remember hazy tidbits of his time there. The Order still use Grimmauld Place as headquarters. There are a few parts to the fic. Molly is scandalized to find that Sirius and Remus are a couple, Arthur doesn't have a problem with it. Sirius and Remus make love in the main room in front of the fire after the rest of the Order leave the room to go to bed.

    Thank you!

  • Can I get some character name help?

    I'm working on a screenplay, and I'm sort of stuck on the main character's name. I'd appreciate some input-- just let me know what sort of person each name on the list brings to mind when you read it.

    If you can think of a better middle name, or just a similar name combination that you like better, please let me know. Thanks!

  • Auditioning For Tommy- need song suggestions?

    I'm auditioning for a role in The Who's Tommy (auditioning for either Mrs. Walker, The Acid Queen, or Sally Simpson), and I need to prepare a one-minute song (16-24 bars) for the audition. The song is supposed to be pop, rock, or modern musical theatre music. I need some suggestions on what songs to sing. I am a mezzo soprano with a four octave range, if that helps.

    If you want a list of all the characters you can go here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Harry_Potter_...

    Remember, you don't need to cast every character, I'm just asking for the main ones (you can write no change if you like the actor who plays a certain character)

  • What is the best pairing you can imagine happening in Syfy's Tin Man?

    It's a brilliant miniseries, filled with fantastic characters. Ever think some of them should be paired up? If so, who? It can be as implausible as you want, as long as you can think of a reason, or situation to explain it. I always love to know the opinions of others, especially when it involves pairing off fictional characters, so please answer my question.

  • To ask him out, or to not ask him out: That is the question.?

    I like one of my guy friends, but he has this unrequited love/severe crush thing for this other girl- the whole school pretty much knows about it (it's a REALLY small school), and we all know nothing is going to happen between them. Should I bother asking him out? I'd like to, but I feel like even if he said yes, it would be because he was settling for me. I think we could be good together, and... I dunno. What do you think? I'd really appreciate some advice.
