Why Yes, Drake Bell And Corbin Bleu Are That Good Looking In Real Life. Better Even.

August 25, 2007. A day that will go down in history, mine at least. My first ever concert. Pretty sad, huh? But it was worth the wait. The concert I attended was in Boston, Massachusetts, at the Bank of America Pavillion. Drake Bell, Corbin Bleu, Biance Ryan, and Aly & AJ. And I went with the best company ever...friends. Monique and Bailey. And Bailey's Mom who was brave enough to deal with us through the concert and the night we spent in Boston.

Bianca Ryan performed first. Man, does that girl have a voice. I was amazed. And she's so cute. I really enhoyed her portion of the concert, though it was only 20 miutes long.

Corbin Bleu followed her up as it started to get darker outside. He got the audience pumped. I don't think he stop dancing at all through the fourty minutes he was on stage. That song from High School Musical 2 "I Don't Dance" was totally a charactersong, because Corbin Bleu does dance. A lot. He was very good. I screamed like a fangirl. *shrugs* So I am.

Drake Bell...this will be long winded. Before every act came on they played a short clip of them. For Biance Ryan it was the clip of her winning America's Got Talent last year. Corbin's was him dance. For Drake it was this picture:

That was all Monique, Bailey and I needed to scream at the top of our lungs. We weren't the only ones screaming, but we were probably the loudest and most enthusiastic. After that Drake actually came on stage. He had his guitar and was wearing sunglasses. He played: "Up Periscope", "I Know", "Do What You Want", "Found A Way", "Makes Me Happy", "Fool the World", A song none of us had ever heard, "Fallen For You", "Rusted Silhouette", "Break Me Down", and "End It Good". Somewhere around "Makes Me Happy" he took his sunglasses off and I think Bailey and I both melted. Also during "Makes Me Happy" he looked over, saw our sign, and smiled at Bailey (who was holding said sign). I of course missed this. Though I don't know how. Monique got some amazing pictures of Drake on stage and I'll put them up when I get them. And when I'm all set up at Champlain I'll scan in my ticket and program.

We didn't watch any of Aly & AJ. We went to get autographs and missed it all. Unfortunately only people with VIP passes were allowed to get autographs and none of us had those. A very kind man at the concert with his daughters was able to get Bailey in to see Drake and she got a pull-out poster from of those PopStar-type magazines signed by Drake. And also a hug.

After that we went back to our hotel room and fangirled for about an hour. Then Mo and Bailey's Mom went to bed. Bailey and I attempted to do some writing and ended up staring at the signed poster and a picture of Jensen I had. Then we shut off the lights and chatted 'til about 2.

It wasan awesome night, though Mo and I are a little jealous of Bailey. Mo and Bailey both got Drake shirts, and I got a poster for my dorm room wall. Those shirts are pretty nice to look at. I have pictures of them modeling them to put on my dorm wall as well.

I can't wait to share pictures from the concert Monique took some amazing ones of Drake. The ones of Corbin came out blurry because he never stopped moving.

Supernatural, That One Year Deal for Sam: My Speculations

I recently read a Supernatural fanfiction called "Ico" by EleanorRigbee. I recommend the story as it was very, very well-written with a really cool plot. The main plot of this story is that Dean traded his soul to Sam (jokingly) when they were kids. No matter that it was joke it counts none the less and when the demon comes to collects Dean's soul a year after "All Hell Breaks Loose Pt. 2" Sam informs her that because Dean had previously traded his soul that it wasn't his to trade. The demon can't beat this logic and leaves.

I hadn't really thought any further on that story. Tonight I was messing around in Photoshop. I was getting screencaps from StripedWall.com to mess around with. I opened up a picture and had a sudden revelation that I then had to run by my sister.

I'll try to be coherent and start at the beginning. We know from the episode "Crossroad Blues" that to make a deal with a crossroads demon a person has to first summon them, agree on a deal, and then kiss the demon (yeah, I still think being a crossroads demon would be a cool job). At the end of "All Hell Breaks Loose Pt. 1" Sam dies. The beginning of the season finale, "All Hell Breaks Loose Pt. 2," we see that Dean is distraught. He doesn't know how to move on. He can't let go of his little brother because he's got nothing else to live for. He goes to the nearest crossroads and makes a deal with the demon there. Evidence:

He agrees that in exchange for Sam being alive he will only have one year to live. Once the one year is up the demon will come to collect his soul.

Back up once again to "Crossroad Blues." Dean and Sam are trying to save a guy named Evan. Sam stays at the Evan's home to protet him while Dean drives to the crossroads and summons the demon. He has a devil's trap set up under the Impala and he tries to lure her into it. She sees a side of it as she's about to step in and moves away. Thinking he has no more triks up his sleeve she follows Dean under a water tower, where there is another devil's trap is drawn. She is trapped. Dean wants to deal. If Evan is released from his contract, then Dean will let the demon go. She refuses and Dean starts an exorcism. The demon finally agrees to the deal, the hell hounds stop going after Evan and Dean and the demon share a kiss. Evidence:

What if - and ths is a pretty big if - instead of trading the demon's freedom for Evan's release, he instead traded his soul for Evan? This would give Dean 10 years, and if he didn't know about if then it wouldn't be considered trying to wiggle out of his deal with the demon in "All Hell Breaks Loose Pt. 2." If this were true, then when the demon comes to collect she won't be able to because Dean's soul would have already been promised to the demon in "Crossroad Blues."

What do you think? I hadn't realized that Dean had actually made terms to the deal with the demon in "Crossroad Blues" until I re-watched the last couple of scenes to make sure I got my facts straight. That's a hole in my awesome theory. If you get nothing else out of this post, then at least check out the pictures. I learned a cool way to sharpen images using Photoshop (Other than using the Sharpen filter) and I've had fun sharpening pictures for this.

A Mystery of Life is Solved

I now have the answer to one of the many mysteries of life. What is this mystery you may ask? Simple: Is there a limit to how many videos you can favorite on YouTube.com? The answer is yes. After 500 they cut you off. Actually nothing happens you just get a message that says something to the effect of "Video NOT saved". When you try to favorite more.

My goal for today will be to go through my favorites list and pick which ones I want to keep on there. I favorite alot of things just because Idon't have the time to watch them when I find them.

Edit/Note Thing: I had 507 videos. I must have added the last seven or whatever so quickly that it wasn't noticed until the 508th vid I tried to favorite. Go me!

Another Note Thing: After cleaning out the most obvious things on my favorites list it is down to 440 videos. That's right, 22 pages of favorites listings.

The Sexy Face

In the process of making another desktop picture (I'm learning and advancing my Photoshop skill) I found this piture that just needed to be saved and shared.

It's from "All Hell Breaks Loose Part 2" (screencap found http://screencap-paradise.com). I call it 'the sexy face'.

It Takes A While, But A Eventually One Wakes Up Your Muse.

A few nights ago I was looking for a prompt, 'cuz I wanted to write something. I looked through many sites and pages of prompts and finally one caught my interest.

A girls vollyball goes missing on the way to an away game.

I was trying to just write an original story from the prompt, but from the way I started it may end up being a Supernatural fanfiction.

Towels Are Evil!

For Bailey: A short blog post on why towels are evil (and why we also love them).

Jensen Ackles - The episode "Borrowed Time" of Dark Angel

Jared Padalecki - The episode "Hell House" of Supernatural

And that is why towels are evil. But HELLO! Nice view.

Both of the pictures are from http://www.desiring-jensen.org/ (even though one is of Jared).

P.S. Bailey, I had to search through pages of pictures to find these. Then I had to pick from the shots they had of each with the evil towel. It was hard (right!), but I did it (and would gladly do it again). Love ya Bails!

P.S.2. This really shouldn't make sense other than Bailey and I (and possibly Monique), so just enjoy the pictures.

Really Quick

Look is pretty.

It's 1280x800.

Check out http://moments.misplaced.co.uk/ that's where I learned how to make it. They have tutorials for Photoshop and lots of lovely desktop pictures.

EDIT: Misplaced Moments has become Belldonna, located at the following address: http://www.deadly-nightshade.com/

Oh God! Not Another One?!

Yes, another wallpaper. Because Leviathan's screen is so large none of my other wallpaper fit. So I've made three new ones and they've each had their turns on Leviathan's 1280x800 pixel screen. The latest of the three is gracing my desktop now. I made only half an hour ago or so. And it's just so full of pretty and made of awesome that I wanted to share it.

That's really all I have to say. I keep getting distracted by my desktop picture now. I don't know how I'm going to get anything done.

Kidzels - Is It Wrong?

I was helpin' out at my aunts daycare today and she gave the kids Kidzels for snack. I'd never heard of them, but they're just pretzels made in fun shapes for kids. They're quite cute actually. I can't find pictures, but one of the shapes was a car.

Now I have a question: Is it wrong that the first thing I thought of when I saw the car-shaped pretzel was Metallicar? Because I totally did.
