It's my favorite scene as well! I love it dearly. That movie is fantastic. I'm such a dork, I even have the soundtrack. At the beginning of our play this year, we had all these masks on and the guys had phantom masks. Only like 3 of us had seen the movie so we were all singing it. I was singing The Point of No Return, the guy was singing Music of the Night, and the other girl was singing All I Ask of You. It was all at the same time as well. Everyone was staring at us. It was great.

Aw, that sounds fun. I loved being backstage on my play, we had some crazy times lol. One night we crawled under the stage in full costume and makeup and sat around whispering/singing the songs till it was time to go one.
Phantom was aweosme! I haven't watched it in forever thought. Hehe, I remember last summer my cousins came to town and they brought the movie. So that night we all watched it and my 6 year old cousin is sitting in front of the T.V. singing all the songs. She knows that movie so well.

We are always so hyper before we go on stage. Especially the last night. We were playing Duck, Duck Goose and dancing. Me and one of the seniors were humming the pirates soundtrack, that was mine! *wink.wink* Hehe. We were practicing our dance moves for some of the songs as well. There's always one person that messes up each time. I usually messed up because I have no sense of coordination. One of our main characters forgot an entire stanza of her song. It was awful. The last night was good though. No mess ups. Which is always nice! ^_^
I want to see Phantom on Broadway so bad. I bet it's brilliant. I have no idea how they'd do the chandelier though. I guess they'd split the fake audience with the real audience. I have no clue.

I finished Atonement this morning!!!! I loved it so much, it was brilliant! Although, there was a line, on the last page, that I read 10 times and I still don't really understand it. I want to post it, but i don't know if anyone else is reading it and it might spoil the book...

It's the part where she can change "it" from happening or not isn't it? Well technically she can't but since she is an author she can add them to her birthday party... figuritively. They won't be 'there' but in her imagination they will be. Do you think this paragragh will give anything away?

Yes! That's the line, the one about her party! I think it makes sense now. No, it didn't give anything away. Don't worry.

Good! ^_^ I cried so hard when I read that part. She's not going to remember any of it! Sadness enveloped me. What was horrible though was my mom coming in while I was crying.

I didn't cry, surprisingly. I thought I would have though, because my grandma and grandpa had/died the same thing Briony did. It was defintely sad, but i didn't cry.

People are saying it's superfantastic. I can't wait. I bet it'll get Oscar nominations. ^_^ Hooplah! And Jean- Yves- Thibadeut did the music again! He did P&P. I loved that music. My sister tries to play it on the piano but she fails massively.

I know! December is so far away. I'm probably the only one in my entire school that has read the book. I'll bring my friends with me though! ^_^
Yelpers, Teen Camp. It's a Bible School thingy. We do different activities like capture the flag and things of that nature. So the peeps from New Jersey came down. Today was the last day and I cried misserablly. They're all so funny and great. Sadness.
I won't have a computer for 3 weeks. GSA. I'll explain that later.

I got the book in April, but didn't have time to read it during school and finished in June. I had to stay up really late and to finish it because it was requested. We retunred it though, lol. My mom hates the fines. [Hopefully your talking about Atonement, cause I am. And if you're not.. sorry] But today I found out that Atonement's rated R. At least in the US it is. Eh, that makes me mad cause me mom might not let me see it. I dunno, maybe she will. I must start convincing lol

hahah yer i was talking about atonement lol at least you returned it... i borrowed it from the school library so there are no fines, you just get warnings which they never go through and punish you with.... yer it was really anoying me that i was taking so long to read it so i stayed up late every night to read it.... i am now doing that with a different book before i have to go back to school... its called 'his dark materials - northern lights' has anyone read it, its coming out at the end of the year as a movie (sorry to get off the topic...) noooooooooo rated R? thats really really anoying, although a lot of the times movies are rated R in america they are MA 15 + in australia so i hope that happens... do you mean you hope your mum lets you see it in the cinemas? or borrow it out on dvd? you cant see an R rated movie in Aus unless you are 18 + ......
