Your place to babble about anything random here. It's spam to an extent, but not to an unbearable extent. Just write down your current thoughts.
--------------
The three Disney characters I relate the most to are, in order,
1.) Prudence, current majordomo and future grand duchess.
2.) Captain Amelia.
3.) Princess Ting-Ting.
Interestingly enough, none of these characters are from anything close to Disney's most beloved movies. Granted, Mulan II and Cinderella III were probably the best sequels so far - at least in the opinions of myself and quite a few others. Still, I would venture to say there is at least some small-time epic quality (if you'll pardon the contradictory phrase I just used) to all three ladies.
They have fantastic voices. Holland Taylor. Emma Thompson. Sandra Oh. Unless I am mistaken, each of these well-known actresses only voiced one animated character.
They characters themselves are very authoritative figures, and yet very complex with unusual weaknesses to boot. There is certainly more to their stories than is ever seen on our screens. I wouldn't call them "gray area" characters, especially not Amelia, because they are obviously "the good guys". You could tie them up and gag them, but they would still refuse to join the villains. They've only got their noses stuck in the air, which is what makes younger fans mistake them for villains. I remember after watching Cinderella II for the first time, one of my friends was convinced that Prudence would treat Cinderella just as Lady Tremaine had. Erm, that's a definite no. Makes me wonder if said friend wasn't paying a speck of attention to the royal banquet scene at the end of episode the first. (A commercial featuring this scene is what made me count down the months and days until C II's release date, way back when.)
Treasure Planet shouldn't have "flopped". It was bad timing for the movie's release. I absolutely loved it, due to many factors. Starting at the age of seven, I read Treasure Island every summer- and thus I was already quite familiar with the story.
The live action Disney character I relate best to is actually a male character by the name of James Norrington. I'll say a few words about him later. I'll also talk some about characters I don't see myself in, but I completely love. I don't truly relate to Kelsi Nielson, but I find her completely adorable and love her for quite a few reasons.
In one word, I suppose you could describe most of my favorites as "understated".
Bring forth the babble!

That's hot.
I'm a little affraid to start a new relatonship
As a 21-year male I think that girls should be my first thing on my mind, but after my 2 past...and only....relationships well...
I just started to think I have some "6-months only" curse or something because my first girlfriend left me after 6 months(why? ask her she never told me) and well...two months ago dani just...left...
Anyway, that`s my current thought because I'm starting to fall in-love of a great girl and I know I like her but I'm affraid that in six monts well...all could just fall dwn again

Sorry about your GF trouble,Isidiour...
C'mon...curses only exsist in movies,I say go for it! You could be surprised at the outcome...don't let past experiences let you down!
Now for my rambling...
I just got back from my first viewng of Hairspray(2007) and am officially obsessed. I REALLY want my high school to do this as their next musical(after fall's Alice in Wonderland).
One thing that may direct the director(hehe) away from this production is:
There's hardly ANY negros in our school..let alone ones that would try out.
MY cousin was like "Maybe we could spray-paint white peopel" and I was like "WTF!???" you can't do that! It's RUDE!
Whatever..I just really wanna do it! xD

I find that even though I know the dance moves for We're All In This Together from HSM I'm still really stiff when I do it, for some reason I can't just let loose and have more fun with it 
I also find that Bop To The Top and What I've Been Looking For are extremely hard to learn for some reason which makes me worried because myself and a couple friends are going to perform the HSM songs in a little concert/performance of sorts and I really hope things start working out since we've had non=stop problems

This isn't happy babble, but I'm just kinda sad. Nothing in life seems to go according to plan...you grow up in a very unsupportive household, so you move out when you're a very young adult, and then your life is completely different. What you've wanted for yourself since you were in kindergarten just doesn't happen and you don't know how to make it happen, but your just stuck in a hole you can't dig out of...and you feel alone in it.
I love UD- I don't "know" you all so I guess it's easier to spill how I feel, because I just can't do that with people I know...
I admire parents of people who are in the entertainment industy (the people who got in the industry as kids)- that's just awesome of the parents to a) actually care what the kid wants, and b) to let them (and help them) do it. I never had support like that- my parent's didn't give a rats behind what I wanted...as long as I went on to college in order to get a 9-5 job. That's just not me...I made a rant about this in the rant thread a while ago. I was trying to get ready for bed (it was a late night last night), and I was just in the bathroom crying...I know my hubby is a sometimes-UD member, and he could read this, but at this point I either don't care or hope he doesn't read it...*sigh*
I'm home alone right now- I probably wouldn't have cried in the bathroom if he were home- I would've just gone to bed and fallen asleep. It's just hard/weird/different to be 22 and married, first off, and it just sucks to never have been able to do what I wanted in life. I wasn't allowed in Girl Scouts or to do sports (without having any encouragement at home, I asked to do some activities, which my parents always said no to (except for band, but a year after I wanted to- I wanted to play drums...they said NO)...or do musical things. I LOVE music, and I know that that's what I want to do. Especially after going to concerts- I like younger acts- and just knowing that they're having a blast. I mean, I have a blast going to concerts...I used to write a lot growing up, and I haven't in a couple years...
Yeah, I just needed to get that off of my chest. Time for beddybye.

I'm sorry, Amy. *hugs* I am always here to talk. You can email me if you want 
And look at it this way--your husband is a sweetie. Most men aren't
My turn--
Lately, there have been a few things that are bothering me. First off, I am kind of being stalked. There is a guy I know who likes me, and who is constantly talking to me and flirting with me when he KNOWS that I'm engaged. The really sad thing is that my fiance has kind of been ignoring me lately, and calling my friends instead. It's really bad because I get upset and angry, and then this guy calls and I am tempted to do some bad things because I want attention. Jeremy has forgiven me for things I've done in the past that I don't want to share (or repeat) but I am so desperate for attention. I don't want to leave him, but I really wonder if he loves me. I was the one who told him that I was interested in being in a relationship, and he said OK. And now, you know, he's in love with me and I have a hard time believing him. I know that I have trust issues, but this one is extreme, and I've never had issues trusting him before. Also, I am about to go to college for theatre. I have to get (and memorize) two monologues for next Monday. I am completely lost, I don't know where to begin. I asked my friend for help, but he doesn't really know.
My highschool is doing 'Cats' as their spring musical. 'CATS'! 'Cats' is a GREAT show. It's non stop dancing, singing, high energy. I love 'Cats' and I know that the production is going to be awful. I'm afraid that if I see it, I am going to lose respect for the show. But my friend is going to try out and wants me to see it. I'm really annoyed because it's always all about her and I really don't like her at the moment. She really gets on my nerves....
Plus I've been feeling unloved and unwanted and ignored lately. My fiance calls my friends instead of me, my friends call all my other friends instead of me, my friends call their love interests instead of me, or when I am on the phone, they TALK about their love interest. It's hard because I miss Jeremy soooo much and everyone's snuggling and holding hands, or talking about how they want to be in a relationship. It's really been getting to me lately and I want to cry.
Thanks for reading......

This will be brief, but:
- I love the Grand Duke from Cinderella and its sequels.
- I love Sir Hiss from Robin Hood.
- I love Dr. Doppler from Treasure Planet.
- I love Kelsi Nielson from High School Musical and its sequel, although I do not consider myself to be a "real" HSM fan.
- I love Samantha Samuels from Cory in the House.
- I love Jeanette the Chipette from the Alvin and the Chipmunks series.
- I love Yuen Shi-Yi (the Reader of Rules) from Sagwa, the Chinese Siamese Cat.
- I love Griselda from The Winx Club.
Notice a pattern? (The pattern is not that seven of the above eight characters wear some type of eyeglasses. The key is personality, although the personalities are rather different at times. For instance, Reader and Griselda have nothing at common at first glance, but they do share traits if one looks deeper.)
//
I'll tell you what I don't love. I don't love a memory that I recently stumbled upon. Now, you should know that I love my father. For better or for worse, I am living "proof" of Freud's theory that girls grow up to be with men who remind them of their fathers. However, my mother and I can't seem to find common ground or even respect on almost anything.
When I was young, I wanted to play football. Oh, be quiet. I know that doesn't sound like me, but that's what I wanted. My mother wouldn't let me. I wanted to play baseball. My mother wouldn't let me. The list continued. I did end up becoming a cheerleader, but not in my elementary years. Ironically, my younger sister received Mom's full blessings on playing any sports her little heart desired.
In retrospect, I can see the cold truth. She, the woman who supposedly birthed me, thought I wasn't good enough for competitive athleticism- although she had never seen me play. Never mind that I come from a long line of marathon runners through my father's side. Never mind that I have flexibility and "good strong legs." Never mind that I was an excellent swimmer. Never mind that I beat records at obstacle courses, have always been a natural at dance, and went on to cheerleading. It didn't matter to her. She thought I wasn't good enough to play baseball. A small piece of me still wants to play baseball, although I truly am bad at it now because I was denied practice.
Unfortunately, my mother has never seen me as capable in any form, no matter how much I prove her wrong. I long ago gave up trying to make her proud. She will never see me for who I am. All she sees me as these days is a snob. She calls me a snob and says she is ashamed to be my mother. Why? Who knows. I could do anything in the world, but she would find some fault in it. I try not to care.
However, I must confess something. Sometimes I wonder if I am her daughter at all. There's too much in favor of my being my father's daughter to doubt it, but I cannot find any resemblances between my mother and myself. If someone else is indeed my mother, then I certainly inherited a great deal from her and it would explain everything, including the obvious favor Mom shows to my younger sister.
(My parents were married for many years before I came into the scene.)

current toughts:
Being nervous, that sensation in your tummy like if there were nothing but air inside, and yet you feel so heavy...
"Pao...I wanted to ask you if..."
--"Hush my little fawn, I love you too"
Then I feel no land under me, no floor or something that hold me for a second, and just after I feel her arms around me, I hold her tight too and we kiss...A kiss that makes me feel even better, a kiss that warms not only my lips but also my heart and my soul. That provokes me to lift her and laugh, to say her the only thing I have on my mind
"I love you Paola"
I love the scent of your hair, the taste of your lips and the tickles in mines after your kiss, and how amazing is to feel my heart and of heart bumpingo together at the same rythm.
My current tought are, to be more specific, only one: You Paola, and even when you can't read it for now I know you knew this since the first time our eyes met.
Destiny, God's will, luck?
who knows...but thanks

*whistles amusingly* what a load of romance probs. I'm truely sorry to the following
Meg *hugs her*
Isidour: You should work things out with this new girl please
and I wish best of luck to
Amy *hugs her* Just listen to your heart please
Prudence: Everything's gon'na be fine, just take life slowly, you got plenty of time.
Now for my babble
I had the most unexpected experience in my life, a couple days ago.....I met 2 nice Juniors (High School) and we got along really well. Apparently they're both best friends, and they both had a crush on moi yet they hid it from each other.....So much drama came with this event, I was PRESSURED seperatly to choose btween Suzi (the main girl) and Jazzy (Best Friend), it boiled down to the lot of us takin' a break from each other. But I told 'em to think of THEIR friendship 1st. Again we're currently takin' a break from each other, so yeah, I hope it works out to the point of us being friends. I don't wan'na ruin friendships.
