A picture says a thousand words. So here's a thousand pictures.

Trip consisted of France and Italy.

ENTHUSIASM!!

Love the colors! Love them! :)

They made me beautiful.

Paris spoke for me.

Hygiene Rap!

Well, Jason and I, as a last thing to do before he ventures off for college, made a rap. We thought that the topic should be about hygiene. So we made it! And it was great! Beautiful! Phenomenal! Sensational!

But it was missing something.... A music video.

So we set out, putting our creative juices on high. And when we finished, we had created this. All congrats to Jason for the beat and the editing/recording. We wrote the lyrics that we sang, and it only took about 3 days. Featuring Haley, Gina, and Kylie. Enjoy, comment, love, and LAUGH!! It's supposed to be hilarious!!

ANOTHER New Haircut!!

I guess I get bored really fast, because I already have made another dramatic change to my hair!! I've realized that I was always meant to have short hair. Short hair = Jenna. And though it was already short, I knew it should have been shorter. I just left it long enough to make a small ponytail for volleyball. Hehehe

And about the color... Well, everybody told me to dye it brown! And though it was a big leap for me, I decided that now would be the best time to try it! Because if I don't like it, I can have it grown out before Junior year. But it really does bring out my eyes! I really like it!

All over I'm absolutely THRILLED that I got it cut. I have absolutely NO hassle with it anymore. Even less than my last cut! And my hair had gotten so long and so light... It grew SOO much in three months!!

I guess I just feel like my hair suits me now. At least that's what people are telling me, so I'm gladly agreeing. Hahaha, and it definitely brings me back to the good old days... 

IT FEELS SO GOOD TO BE BACK!!!

RIGHT before I left for the cut.

Brown and short! With some trails of my old blonde for memories.. :)

The past isn't too forgotten. :)

Phenomenality = Little Shop

I'm going to have to say that the greatest thing to ever happen to me was my miraculous casting in my high school's production of Little Shop of Horrors. Everything about this musical was nothing less than a dream come true. If not more than that. Starting off my acting career with this grand performance was nothing less than perfect. This is the greatest musical in existence and we put on one heck of a show. :D

I got cast to do many little parts throughout, as my pictures show. In order my roles were: Prostitute (I know you all must be so proud), Chang (Chinese woman), Interviewer (No picture of that character. :( ), Bernstien (Where I did my solo), and a Bucket Brigador (I sing the Finale in that role).

And trust me, if you haven't seen the movie yet, GO SEE IT RIGHT NOW. It's so hilarious. The stage production ends differently, but it's just as entertaining.

Everything about this show was phenomenal. We had the best actors/singers at Deer Valley, the beastliest set we could have managed, the most PHENOMENAL plants ever to exist, a live band, and great techies, too. The band, by the way, was stunning. I couldn't get over their talent. 

My friends and family, I must say, were too sweet to me. Especially my number one fan -- Haley. She went every single night and even made a shirt for me!

And if you haven't picked up the implication, I fell in love. With everything. Everything that had to do with the play. Everything that had to do with the people. And everything that had to do with theatre. This most certainly will not be my last time on stage. :D

The fancy head-shots we got. :D

A nice view of the whole cast in our opening number, Skid Row.

Yes, me as a prostitute. Never shall those boots touch my feet again!

Chang! Definitely a fun role. :D

Close up of Chang. :)

The greatest cast ever. :) (Techies and band included! = small cast)
