final post....

Since this is my final post and I will not be going further on with making blogs. Blogs were a new a thing for me, I have never done them before, which made me learn a lot more about the blogging world than what I expected to learn about them. Also the subject that I have been talking about for 9 weeks now have taught me more about Tim Burton, than expected.
  When I first started making blogs about Tim Burton the only thing I knew about Tim was that he made some outlandish movies that made it to the big screen, that were different from other movies with the quirkiness and darkness he has in his directing and producing of movies. With the blogs I then had to research about Tim, which I then learned the reasons behind all the decisions he has made on the screen and his background since his childhood.
   I did not even know that I could do this, but I just became even more of a fan of Tim Burton’s. His path to become a famous director was moving to me, how he came from a small town and was always made fun of as a child because of his quirkiness.
  With all the movies I have seen of his, it could be the first time or the twentieth, I was always still amazed that I still could see things that I have never seen before that it was there with its miniscule sly jokes it has. Some of the jokes were even about what is happening to the world nowadays. For example, Jack the Pumpkin King from Nightmare before Christmas, ever since that movie was released, Tim Burton always put Jack’s smile in a background some way. He could make it noticeable or a small extra that you would have to see the movie for the thirtieth time to finally see the movie.
   With Tim’s fame he gained, he also gained new friends that were or are still phenomenal actors and actresses, that could even make the movie better, which I thought was not even possible. Such as Johnny Depp, which he considers his very talented best friend. Johnny was in movies of Tim Burton’s was Alice in Wonderland, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Corpse Bride, Sweeney Todd, and Headless Horseman, and in the future he will be doing a remake of Wizard of the Oz too. He also gained a wife, Helena Bonham Carter. She has the same quirkiness as Tim does, which makes them a perfect match, and the roles she plays in Burton’s movie are practically made for her. Movies she has been in was, Alice in Wonderland, and Sweeney Todd, and for the future she is going to be in Wizard of the Oz. You can say that they are a cup of tea together.
Making these blogs have helped me a lot, more experience in the blog world, learned new information about Tim Burton and has helped me with my English.

American Idol....

Most of my life I have always been influenecd in the music industry. I have no clue what I want to be, but no matter what I know that music will always be in my life. I know that I can not become a professional singer because you must no someone to become a someone, and in this town I wont become big. That is why this year I will audition on American Idol.
I have been in chorus, and musicals all of my life. I have been in Lion King, I was the only one who had a solo in it. Also was in West Side Story and now 25th annual Putnam County Spelling Bee. I also have been in all county for 3 years and have almost gone to state, but I did not pass a test, sadly. It would have been a great experience. And this year I also became a Thespian and went to districts and got an excellent. Since 6th grade I have always had the spot light on me. That is what I call home now.
If I had to choose what my favorite type of music it would have to be classic rock like Queens or Aerosmith. I literally though listen to every type of music on this earth! I mean what 17 year old do you know that actually listens to opera?! And not just the famous Ave Maria, I actually have CDs.
So if I ever do make it big I will make sure I remember the little people in Port Saint john, and remember to call my number if I make it on the American idol stage. (:
Even if you do not like my voice, just think that who will really become big in this small of a town that we live in. Just think of the opportunities now people would have.
