Personalities! :)

Ever since I've heard of the Myers-Briggs test, and all other personality tests for that matter, I've been kinda hooked. :) Thanks to Grace, I found a good Myers-Briggs personality test and I loved it, so I wanted to share it with you all!

The basic idea to the Myers-Briggs (MBTI) test is that people are categorized into different categories, based on different elements. You're categorized into a combination of letters based off of....well, I'd best use an example. I'll use INFP as an example. I stands for Introverted, N stands for Intuition, F stands for Feeling, and P stands for Perceiving. That's a category of a person. There are two options for every letter--- for the first, Introverted or Extroverted; the second, Intuition or Sensing, etc. I did a really horrible job of explaining haha, but anyway.

It's really fun to take quizzes like this 'cause it helps you (or it helped me, in any case) understand yourself and others. And since I'm a big people watcher, I really enjoy that kinda stuff. :)

So, without further ado, here are the links. Make sure you tell me what type you are! I'll tell you my type once I post the links :)

The test

Portraits of the types

The test was accurate, but for me I found it way helpful to look at the portraits of the types to gain a better understanding. :)

My type is ENFP, but I'm weird. I'm not the stereotypical, look-it-up-on-Pinterest-and-agree-with-every-picture kinda thing. Based off of the portraits, I've decided that I'm a quieter ENFP, but when it comes to relationships and being alone I also identify a ton with the ENFJ. Whatevs.

If you take the test let me know what you are! Yay! (:

aw dangit-.-

I'm a pretty horrible blogger.

This blog is literally like my actual diary --- I never write in either, and if I do, it's monthly.

Mostly because I don't have much to write about, but hey.(: So, here's a random post about my life. Whoopee.

In about a week or so, I will be flying down to Virginia Beach! But not to see the beach. To dance! On TV! Awesomesocks.com!

It'll air on CBN (a Christian TV network) eventually, but I'll try to post the link so y'all can watch it live, if you want. Asdfghjkl, so nervous and excited.

School starts back up for me officially September 6, the day after I get back from VA. Not so excited for math and boring, unimportant stuff like that (*grins, knowing Mom could put up a valid argument as to why it's important*) but I'm THRILLED for Drama!! Yay!

Ever since I saw Wicked, I've kinda gotten into theatre and Broadway and all that jazz. (Is it theatre or theater? I have no idea, so I'm going with theatre.)  So, since I've seen Wicked, I've also seen Les Mis (twice) and Phantom of the Opera (twice) and I've heard (and loved) bits of the soundtracks from musicals like Matilda, Newsies, Cinderella, and Annie. All of this makes me want a million dollars so I can go to NYC and pay to see all of these shows on BWay a hundred times. And I've also been watching their backstage vlogs ;D

So basically my iPod is getting loaded with showtunes. And it's getting me beyond excited to see Wicked when it comes in the winter.

What are you all's favorite musicals? And when do you guys start school? (Which is weird asking because you all are mostly or entirely homeschoolers, but whatever;)

Wicked......Again

Okay, now I've actually seen the whole thing. :)

ASDFGHJKLHIPG'EOSIHGDISOBGUDSP

Yeah. My reaction whenever I think about it.

But for now this post is dedicated (mostly) to telling you lovely (probably bored by now) followers who my favorite Elphabas and Glindas are and why! Yay!

If you're not into this, sorry. I'll try to post something normal for once, later.

*ahem* But onto the awesomeness! I'll start with my favorite G(a)linda. After a lot of web surfing, I have decided that my favorite is.....



Megan Hilty! :'D Seriously, she cracks me up. She can still be absolutely hilarious, but also serious when she needs to be. So, here comes some evidence of awesome. (; ooh, this is fun. Okay.

This is the "catfight" between Elphaba and, then, Glinda. It also has No Good Deed in it,but just ignore that. But I just love the way Megan says things. Idk man. I just do.

And, on to Popular. :D I don't really like this Elphaba's reactions, but I love how Megan does this, so I bear it. :) And when she....well.....you'll know what I mean. Let's just say I wasn't expecting it.


And now onto my favorite Elphaba. This took a while, and I have a bunch that I like, but I think my number 1 would be....


EDEN ESPINOSA!!!!!!

Reasons:

1) Her voice is EPIC, to say the least
2) She portrays the character well
3) She was the standby for Idina Menzel for the original performances
4) Her name is awesome. Just say it over and over. Eden Espinosa.....Eden Espinosa....

Anyway. Watch these two videos. Watch them. Tell me she's not amazing. Look me in the eye and tell me she's not, I dare you.






Um yeah. One word: POWERHOUSE. Whoa!!!!!!

Then here's Defying Gravity and No Good Deed, in that order :)



And a "catfight" scene.....I really liked her cackle, but hated the Glinda and Fiyero. Oh well. :)



Oh, and and here's my runner ups ;) 

Glinda:

Katie Rose Clarke, Annaleigh Ashford, Kendra Kassebaum, Alli Mauzey, Suzie Mathers

Elphaba:

Idina Menzel, Teal Wicks, Donna Vivino, Willemijn Verkaik

Those change all the time. :)

So who's your favorite Elphie and G(a)linda? Those are mine, but they might change too. :)

Wicked



= My new obsession.



For those of you who don't know it is a Broadway musical depicting what happened in Oz before Dorothy dropped in. And it looks AWESOME.




Defying Gravity (aka best song ever)


I love this picture, for so many reasons.

This is the song Popular :') Seriously, so funny. ^This is the funniest one, but the next one is the official one, I think.






Elphaba<3


Glinda (or Galinda)



I love this too! All the Wicked Witches of the West - the final product, Elphaba,and the witch I will not name. :)

I looked up tickets (it's coming to the Benedum in January and February 2014) and like the cheapest tickets are $74 per person. :( I couldn't find any group rates, though! Anywhere! If anybody else has any luck please send me the link.

Despite the expensiveness of the whole thing I really want to go. It would be my first Broadway show and I'm seriously so excited. If I can't go for whatever reason I will do some YouTube hunting and I will watch it. I will.

Who's going? Or wants to go? And if you find cheaper tickets or group tickets TELL ME! I will be your best friend for ever and ever :)

COULSON!!!! *spoilers for those who haven't seen the Avengers*

Ladies and gents, I present to you the one nerdy fact that absolutely made my day.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::

COULSON LIVES!!!!!!!!!

That's right. It is now an official fact that Coulson lives and a not so official fact that Loki's going to turn good. But I'll get back to Loki later, for now we just have......COULSON!!!!!

And yes, that requires me to have two geek posts in a row. How nice :)

But here's how that came about. If you all haven't seen the trailer for ABC, Marvel, and Joss Whedon's new TV show, Agents of SHIELD, then here it is. WATCH IT. NOW.


As you will have noticed, Coulson is alive and well, kicking butt and telling people to stay away from Lola. Whatever that means. :) Some may say that this occurred before the Avengers movie happened, but these articles say otherwise.

^Probable reasons as to why Coulson lives

http://www.examiner.com/article/coulson-really-does-live-clark-gregg-talks-coulson-s-return-s-h-i-e-l-d?cid=taboola_inbound

^And Clark Gregg confirming the fact. :D

Thoughts on this extremely exciting and elusive discovery? (: I know I'm excited. LOKI'S NEXT!!!! ahem.....ahem. ;D

As you all know, I am a fangirl. And recently, I was having an extreme nerdgasm over the new Thor: The Dark World teaser trailer!!!!! AHHH!!!!! Watch it all the way to the end..... YES YES YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HE'S IN IT!!!!!!! HE COULD TURN GOOD!!!! :DDD (you'll know what I mean)


Eeeek!!!!! Ahem. Anyway. Sorry I don't post at all: Facebook and Pinterest get in the way. :)

Wow.

Aren't I a horrible blogger?

My last post was *checks* Christmas. CHRISTMAS!!!! Dude.

*Ahem* anyways. The reason I haven't been posting is because there is nothing really interesting about my life --- or interesting enough to post about, anyway. But since it is really becoming bad, I decided to do a life update. Boring, probably, random, definitely, but a life update nonetheless.

So, as you all know, I got an iPod touch for Christmas --- blue, beautiful, and awesome, named Lola (so you'll have to get used to me referring to it as 'she' and 'her'). Well, just recently she began having problems --- won't connect to wifi, randomly turn herself off and restart, all sorts of issues. I tried turning her off at night, and she got better, but still. It's annoying.

Then, I turned her off, and she wouldn't turn back on. Then, a couple days later, I tried for like the ten billionth time to turn her back on and she did. -.- Dad says there's something wrong with the innerds. So, I'm attempting to take advantage of my warranty and get a new one. We'll see how that goes.

So, this is what I call it. She has a heart defect that sent her into a coma, that she was successfully awakened from, but its a life threatening disease. (:

Anyway, Valentine's Day is coming up!!! Yay!!!! I like Valentine's Day because of candy, friends, and Chuck E Cheese. If you've ever been to my mom's Valentine Day party you know what I'm talking about.

One thing that annoys me about Valentine's Day, though, is how most girls our age are like "Oh my GOSH!!!!!! I don't have a boyfriend!!! I'm going to DIE!!!!!!" Here's my response to that:


There ya go. :P

Anywho, I'm really excited for the POTC Marathon!!!! What I got from Tuesday is this: Grace, you have the first one, Steph, you have all of them (except for #4 right?), and the only day we could do it is Saturday. (: March 14 is the earliest available Saturday for me, what about you guys?
