lifetime hello |
] |
I graduated, I am no longer a high school student. It feels good to finally get out, but I will miss it. I didn't do high school regularly, but even with all the tutoring and missing classes, it was worth it to finish. I am going to New York again soon. Andrea, Jake, Shane, and I are doing a DVD signing, and I cannot wait to hit the city. The first time was amazing, and I am really lucky to be going back. Anyway, I am watching a lifetime movie where Mike has dreds and says things like, "What is your mouth made of, teflon?" and talks about Japan a lot. Oooh he just touched some chicks boobs and got shot down. Very intelligent fella, especially since he is back for season five. Daniel isn't, and we all hate him. You know. Anyway I'll probably post in welcome_wagon soon and start this thing over. Just didn't want to hit six weeks.

Crap, I hit five weeks. I didn't mean to do that, but I really don't have much to talk about. I'm going to the Young Artist Awards. We start filming in less than two weeks. Mike is coming back and no one was sure if he was, so I guess that's good news. Daniel isn't. They'll be a lot of other surprises along the way too. I think Cassie, Jake, and whoever else was here died. Oh well, I can't blame them. They should come back and the rest of the cast should get journals and be normal because that would be fun. Get it? Got it? Good.

I was too busy gushing about Cassie last time to talk about what has been going on with me. The "New York Times Magazine" had a special feature about the cast. We all had to go back on set for the photo shoot, it was exciting. The article is pretty interesting, I would say go get it but I don't think it's out anymore. Sorry, I am so slow on these things. Also, the Young Artist Awards Nominations came out. A lot of the cast got nominated, but let me be the first to say that I am so proud of Aubrey. He gets overlooked a lot of the time when it comes to things like this. I am so glad that this time is different, he deserves it. I'm nominated in a TV movie category for She's Too Young. That movie is like the gift that keeps on giving, let me tell you.
Oh, on the East End they are renaming a bar-restaurant to the "Degrassi House" this Friday. I think I am going to the grand opening thing, it'll be a good time. I figured out how to get my AIM to work again, so I've actually been signing on. A+ for me.

CASSIE STEELE I FREAKING LOVE YOU. You are so talented, beautiful, and have an incredible amount of confidence. Please come back, I want to make our engagement official.
I will try to be calm and serious about this. My best friend in all of Canada had her CD release party last night. She performed all the songs off of her new album. Buy it, okay? I promise you it is worth the weeks it will take to ship to where ever you live. I have never been so proud of this girl as I was last night. A lot of the cast caught the show from the side of the stage so they would have a better view, but I made Aubrey and Melissa come with me to push our way to the front. She looked so gorgeous and sounded even better. I can't believe that this girl that I've grown up with wrote these amazing lyrics. My best friend is the greatest rockstar that ever rocked. Sorry Jake, you know I love you too, bring back Mind the Gap and give her some competition.
Lauren's dead so I am going to pretend that I've moved in on Aubrey until she gets angry enough to come back with a vengeance. I am not really interested in him though, my heart belongs to Cassie.

I've been shopping so much lately, I think I am addicted. I can't help it, I think I like everything. I can't classify my style under any category. I like the boho look, but I also love to be glamorous. I am so lucky that there are so many great stores around here.
Anyway, let's get to the point. It's Mike's birthday today. He came back from LA to celebrate with some of the cast, but he's legal in the states now so it doesn't really make much sense. Tonight we are all going out to celebrate. I didn't really know what to get him, but I went down to the music store the other day and made Cassie help me pick out a drum set. I know he likes his old one and all, but it's really beat up. I think he's had it since he was 14, I figured he could use something new. So yeah, Happy Birthday to Mr. Lobel. Tonight will be fun. I think everyone in the cast died again, but it's okay I'm still alive. If anyone else gets a journal I might even attempt to remember my AIM password, so get cooking guys.

Well hello there! It's been a while. I figured since Epstein showed up I could write a little something. Anyone who follows the show knows the finale was a few weeks ago, and I personally enjoyed seeing Skinny beat up everyone's favorite emo kid. Just kidding, but no one can deny the bipolar brawl with Joey being the best thing that ever happened to the show. Since then the show has gotten renewed for 19 new episodes next season. That sounds like sort of a random number, doesn't it? It's because the 19th episode will be the 100th episode of the series. Contracts and stuff are all being negotiated so I've got no news on who is coming back next year and who isn't.
"She's Too Young" came out on DVD this past Tuesday. You can get it on Amazon, or wait until it hits a local store. If you are too lazy for that, it's on Lifetime tonight at 9. I know, the Oscars, but really wouldn't you rather watch a teen STD flick?
School is driving me absolutely nuts. It's really scary to think about graduation though. It's only months away. I could do without all of the physics homework, I really miss being on the set. It's easier to get help when there are only a few of you there. It's funny how fast these four years go by. I started the show just before I entered Grade 9, so I can't say that I ever had a normal high school experience. It's always been a mix of tutors and teachers. I miss so much sometimes and it can be really hard to catch up. Everyone is really good about it, I'm thankful.
The next few weeks are going to be really exciting. Mike is coming back from LA for his birthday, well that's what I've heard. Who knows if Daniel is too, he's busy with his photo shoots and all of that. I am going to be nice though, I promise. After that it's Cassie's CD release. I am so proud of that girl, I cannot even begin to express it. She is working so hard with rehearsing, she has so much drive. Everyone should pre-order her CD. It's great, I promise. I hope Lauren didn't die, I don't want to be alone!

phantom planet - the anthem |
] |
Let me start this out with the negative so everyone forgets about it by the end! Am I allowed to be a little bit bothered? I know it's selfish of me and completely unnecessary, but I am. On to the important stuff, thank you to the beautiful Sarah Michelle Gellar for always leaving me the sweetest comments, I'm sorry that I am so bad at returning the favor. Also while I'm talking about great things, I figured now would be a good time to tell you all that you can pre-order "She's Too Young" on Amazon. It's out on February 22nd, too bad they didn't line it up with Valentine's Day. What happy couple does not want to watch a movie about the big S on the holiday of love?
Speaking of Valentine's Day, I do not have a date and I figured the odds of me posting again before then are slim to none. I think I'll celebrate the occasion by going through my memory box and burning photos of old boyfriends. I hear Shane knows a lot about fires, I'm sure he'd help out. Then maybe I could do his hair, it would be perfect. I will probably just hang out with single girls at some crazy Toronto event or maybe Lauren and I can take the good Clark out on the town. That's if I can get rid of Aubrey for five minutes.
I am going to make this plain and simple for you folks and if it doesn't work I may resort to ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif) mbp_suggest. These people should have journals (in order of importance of course): Aubrey Graham, Robert Clark, Alexis Dziena, Goldsbie and Epstein, omg JOSIE TRENT. I think that's it, unless some kid with really big eyebrows wants to show up again and bring his LA loving jobless gonorrhea power ranger friend. Who really cares about them though. I'm going to look for the cast of Van Wilder now, anyone want to come over and watch the movie with me?

How lucky am I to have a girlfriend as hot as Cassie? If you haven't heard her song yet, I suggest you do so and fast. I think Mike went down to LA, I sure know how to drive them out of the country. He and John are going to be roomies or something while they look for work. I told them to say hi to Jackass for me and let him know I like his brother more anyway.
I've been doing some pretty fun stuff like hanging out at the meet me in TO events with Jennifer Love Hewitt look-a-likes. Oh the wonder of a fake ID. I've gotten really good at avoiding this guy who shows up at just about every one of them. The rest of the time I am down in the Hazelton Lanes shopping or forcing everyone over to watch the OC. Oh, happy belated to Jake. We all partied Saturday night. New Degrassi tonight, we went and moved days of the week on you guys. I hope everyone can figure it out. Lauren gets some action, so if you are smart, you'll watch. I'm in a bad mood so I'm going to go watch my Van Wilder DVD and cheer up. I don't care what anyone says, some parts are really inspirational.

omg lauren i am so jealous. i really wish he didn't delete. i know hadn't used 916-call-tur(k) in a month, but i still think he is a STUD. oh and you better believe i always dialed the k, it didn't feel right otherwise.
good thing i changed my keywords to what i was going to update with because i sorta forgot. i never mentioned going to the geminis. it was a blast. stefan and i did our thing on stage, everyone made fun of my outfit, lauren and aubrey macked it, and i hung out with those crazy RFRers.
i am removing all you degrassi people except lauren, adamo, and cassie. no one else ever posts, so you are being traded in. i just hope there are replacements! i think i ask for aubrey to show up in every post but i need my bff and i can get him the hook up with a hot chick. ;););) i hope i can remember my aim password, i'm contemplating signing on some time this century. if not there is always teenplaya*, that's the kind of thing that you never forget.

So now that Degrassi is done filming, I'm looking for work. The amount of STD acting I have under my belt (no pun intended) is pretty impressive. I'm your go-to gonorrhea girl. Your significant syphilis sweetheart. Why bring an end to such a good thing, it's obviously where I excel. Gosh, the chances of me ever getting a date again decrease everytime these things air.
Tomorrow is OC day I think, if it's not pre-empted for some Christmas special. I don't really remember. We have a party this week too, it's with the cast of "Instant Star". I'd pick going to the movies with Kevin Smith over that any day. CASSIE where have you gone to, beautiful? I think it's just Lauren, Adamo, and I that are alive.

Gosh, how are all of you? I've been running here and there and everywhere. You'd think now that we are done filming, things would lighten up a bit. It's been kind of the opposite though. Adamo, Lauren, and I did a photo shoot for Eye Magazine. You can read the article here and there's a picture here. Etalk Daily covered the photoshoot, and they did an interview with all of us. Lauren and I talked about the OC of course, fashion, and having slight crushes on Adam Brody. Adamo was all about Sex in the City. I can't find the link though, it's on the CTV website somewhere, I think.
Tuesday was the big day, I'm really happy with how the episode turned out. There's still half of the episode to go, but so far, so good. It was weird watching parts of it, because some of the scenes were really hard to film. Everyone is telling me how creepy they think Mike is now. I don't know about you, but when I see this face I don't start to fear for my life. He is one of the nicest guys I know, so I think that everyone finding him to be so believably creepy just helps to establish him as an actor. Speaking of, when do he and Aubrey get journals? We have been waiting forever!
Just wanted to remind everyone if you want to see the Lifetime movie I did a while back, it's on tomorrow night at seven. There's a little bit of teenplaya*, some syphilis, and fourteen year-old sexperts. Good times should be had by all. Where is Cassie? I don't want her to hit seven weeks again. I'm going downtown to get some Christmas presents, I hope you all have a good Friday night. If you live in the states, watch tonight's Degrassi. I promise it's a good one.

The OC isn't on tonight, I really don't know what I am going to do with myself. At least you Americans get a holiday to make up for it, we get nothing. I think I am going out with the girls though, so it will not be all bad. We can talk about things like how cute Aubrey and Lauren are, Daniel's eyebrows, and how much we miss Kevin Smith and Jay's banana.
I'm sort of nervous about next week. I don't like the watch the episodes of the show before they are supposed to air, unless I know I'm not going to be home. I kind of gave in this time, and watched with My Mom. I was getting flashbacks to the time I watched "She's Too Young" with her. Completely awkward and I pretty much wanted to die the entire time, but in the end she was crying and telling me how amazing I was. I really have no idea how people are going to react to the episode, especially since it's about something that isn't usually covered on television. I'm hoping for the best.
Happy Thanksgiving to all you crazy Americans.

There are only a couple of days of filming left. It's really sad, but at the same time I'm excited. I get to work on a lot of other things, but I'll miss everyone. It feels like we just started on this season and now it's already over. Four years of this have gone by so fast. I know a lot of the older people have plans to go out to LA and audition there. I still have school, but I'm not quite sure what I want to do on the off time. I definitely want to go back to New York, just because the first time we all went was so much fun. It's like a completely different world, I love it.
We are having a huge cast party on Friday, it's going to be so much fun. I am trying to be more alive, everyone should follow suit. Then maybe Aubrey, Andrea, Sarah, Mike, and everyone else that is wonderful will show up.

Besides going to the movies with Kevin Smith, there isn't much going on my life. I tried to sit next to him, but he called Cassie over. I was so jealous, thankfully Lauren was there to comfort me. Then we had a whole bunch of candy, and I begged Cassie to tell me if he put the moves on her. I guess if it can't be me, then why not the closest thing!
Thursday night is dedicated to the OC at McDonald residence. I hope you are all plan on attending. We can re-enact scenes, it gives us an excuse to make out! But if you have the big S I'm going to tell your M and you won't be able to come. Aubrey will be there because he is as addicted as I am. Well maybe not quite, I can't get him into the soundtracks. I got the new one the other day. I can finally take Phantom Planet out of my stereo. Well, that is all I have for now. Wait, Stacey is finally here, I am excited. Lauren and Cassie need to come back though.

so i have a lot of degrassi related things to talk about. first of all, for everyone in the states the season one dvds came out today. there are some pretty horrifying pictures on the cover, but beyond that it is pretty good. it's fun to watch all of the bloopers and behind the scenes things, they are finally far enough into the past to laugh at. you can see a couple of clips here.
in other news, the new season started on ctv a couple of weeks ago. a lot of people are telling me what a bitch emma is this season, and they are kind of surprised. it's not that she's a bitch, it's that she stands up for what she believes in and doesn't back down. it's nothing new for the character. every one of the characters has changed and grown up a lot since the beginning, it's just some differences are more subtle than others. i don't want to give away anything so that's all i'll say except I AM SO JEALOUS OF CASSIE, kevin smith is obsessed with her :'( i can't blame him though, she is wonderful!
aubrey and mike need to show up around here or lauren and i are going to throw a fit, and that will not be pretty. not to mention, the rest of you need to update, i miss reading them :(

I didn't die, I just had nothing to say. I never did talk about seeing Garden State. Well, I went with Lauren and it was WONDERFUL but that might have just been because of my date. She bought me popcorn, what else can you ask for?!?!! Cassie is so hot, if you haven't seen her Unscripted you are missing out. I am so happy for her because she came off so well, and exactly like the person I know. Everyone seems to think she is some sort of psycho slut because of Manny but she is the exact opposite, and I'm glad people got to see that. I need a date, I am bored with everything. I like mcs Justin, his posts are interesting. Too bad my entire friends page is Peaches (Hi!) and Welcome Wagon. This is a SERIOUS matter, do what you can. Especially Lauren because I miss her. I have new icons I am too lazy to deal with it and if Daniel wasn't dead I'd upload the one of us. Speaking of, this is horrific.

Last night my Degrassi Unscripted episode was on. I think it was on 5 times and I'm sure it will be the same tonight so if you are dying to see it randomly put The N on, it will be there. I was pretty pleased with how it turned out, I was expecting to be much more embarrassed. Not to say those audition tapes weren't horrific, because they were. But instead I ended up crying over the nice things everyone said about me, I didn't realize that was going to be part of the show. If you watched you are a real playa, thanks.
My Launch radio has gone to hell, there is no way I programmed Peter Murphy to sing Cuts You Up. And it is just getting worse, I think it's a sign I have been online too long. Wait, I didn't even talk about RFR. I don't usually watch the show, it's not my kind of thing but I decided to give it a chance before Unscripted came on. I don't think I like Lily but if she was smart she would pick Robbie, he is the best one on the entire show, forget Ray and Travis. Lauren and I went to see Garden State finally but I don't think I will have anything to update about next time if I talk about that now. See you next time.

Kevin Smith is going to be filming three episodes of Degrassi soon. I am so excited, I want to follow him around saying snootch to the nooch. I bet he will think I am psycho but it doesn't matter. He had Pat and Stefan introduce him at some college event, for that one small time in my life I wished I was Joey Jeremiah.
They are re-airing "She's Too Young" on September 3rd, and I know you are all interesting in catching this classic film. You don't want to miss me being a sexpert and saying, guess what you guys I have syphilis. The big S ravages through the school taking anyone and everyone prisoner. And then we all go on our version of AIM called Teenplaya* and say things like hey grrrl and i'm bummin......
I made Cassie come over the other night and bake cookies with me. We tried so hard to make oreos but it just turned out to be a huge mess. So then we decided to just put oreos in the oven and see what happened, I was hoping for an explosion but all we got was a black, crumbly mess. Then we gave up and made chocolate chip which were mighty good if you ask me. A whole bunch of people got journals since I last posted, Ryan, Jake, and Daniel. Daniel thinks he's a monkey, poor guy. I think that's all that showed up but I could be lying. Where is Towerz I will not be satisfied until he comes around. I am going on a movie date with Lauren VERY soon, hey grrrl does your M know about the big S?

Which episode of Degrassi Unscripted are you looking forward to the most?
Miriam McDonald 15%
Adamo Ruggiero 18%
Cassie Steele 28%
Jake Epstein 21%
Lauren Collins 18%
You know what, I don't like any of you either! :( Just kidding, I just hope you remember to watch the Unscripted thing on Friday. And if you miss it I bet it will be on Saturday. And I bet if you miss it again, it will probably be on Sunday. There are not many programming options over on the N. Did Lauren die, I think Cassie is still alive. I am not sure about the rest. Tell me a story!
