My favorite month of the year. Sure, there are days I like more than Halloween, but as a month on a whole, October's got me hooked. Why?The much-needed drama. Every year, October seems to deliver it in multitudes. And the subject this year is *drumroll* "Fright Fest is BACK?!?!?!" I'm not usually one to gossip [for those in doubt, everything I say, I'll say in person. A true gossip talks behind one's back.] , but this is something I need to share.
Players in the Drama:
The Delinkuentz [Main stars (in code): Redd and $$]
The No-names of Silent Scream
Party goers
It goes a little somethin' like:
The Delinkuentz all turned against $$ one day. No matter how many sides we find in the story, that much is true. They saw her as a liar and a back-stabber, she still holds to the claim of a misunderstanding. But either way, she was kicked out. But, let's face it, $$ wasn't the only one doing the stabbing (I'm not going any further with that, the rest is conjecture). Thanks to the coming of huge exams this year, the Delinkuentz decide they'll put of Fright Fest (this is to be the third annual) until October 2009. And the no-names jump. I'd like to go on record saying I don't think Silent Scream could have gotten very far without the promotion of Timmy and Redd. Yes, Redd. I hear she left the Delinkuentz. No surprise. She was one of a handful who still spoke to $$.
The competition begins!
They've left it in the hands of attendants. And I wouldn't be surprised if more people went to Silent Scream while cooler people showed up at Fright fest. Why? Because FF is an invi-only event. Everyone must attend in costume, must hae invitations and must be connected to the D'z in some way. (ie, Show up with someone else's invi, and they'll know.) The drinks [and party] are free, the venue's bound to be better and they always know how to make the crowd move. Good luck to Silent Scream, and thank GOD Fright Fest is Back.

Finally something to say...
So I've been coming online for days now trying to come up with something to blog about (as it turned out, my life is way more boring than I thought. And that's saying something). I've finally found my subject. Ever notice how people never really seem to offer up want you want until the moment you don't want it so much anymore? That just happened to me this week. I have a job now. It's not really work though. I get paid $3000 (roughly US$43) a week to help these two girls with their homework every day.
Now, everyone who knows me knows that I love kids and that I'm great at babysitting, but keeping them focussed enough to sit down and do homework for an hour or two? I have found the drawback here. But between rehersal's for this year's big musical, practicing my sight-singing and feeding my Facebook pet I really have nothing to do with my time... so I figured, what the hell? It's worth the cash, I got the time and I get to hang out with two adorable younger girls.
And in other news! There's a Halloween party coming up next month- any friends who are reading know I'm talking about Silent Scream- and I am so loving the idea of arriving as none other than Dr. Martha Jones of the Doctor Who and U.N.I.T. fame. (She's my fave companion...next to Tegan) For those of you who don't watch her and don't know the full extent of her costuminess:
Gotta love 'er. Some people are saying that her costume doesn't look like a costume at all. Well, duh, it's not supposed to. But alongside the Doctor, [click it] someone's bound to get it. If not, there's always the all black thing she had going in "Last of the Time Lords" and again in "Journey's End". [linkety-link-link]
The upside to the black deal is the fact that when someone decides to pose the question "What have you come as?", instead of responding "Martha Jones, and he's the Doctor.", I can say "I'm Dr. Martha Jones of UNIT, who the hell are you?". Makes the cosplay just a bit more kickass, no? Black jackets are a hell of a lot easier to find than maroon or red leather too. Gawd, if feels awesome knowing that I'd be able to afford one. Oh, and the backup backup? Lauren Cooper.
And now I'll leave you with:
"Amest I bovver-ed?"
