#14 Wicked

The book and broadway play is one of my favs. I just heard some of the most amazing scoop when I was looking on the web. Wicked is being made into a MOVIE. I am so excited.


For those who don't know what Wicked is about, it is the prequel to the Wizard of Oz. It is what happens before Dorothy landed in the land of OZ. The Wizard of Oz, which was made in 1939, is the first movie It starred Judy Garland. I ever remember seeing as a child. I watched it over and over again. I think i made my parents go crazy. In my college career as an art student I did many art projects where the Wizard of Oz was my subject matter. In the book and play, Wicked, audiences and readers learn how the Wicked Witch became green and "wicked."

Robert Downey, Jr. is rumored to be cast as the Wizard.



I will share more when I learn more.

#13 New Start

As the summer approaches, I can't help but feel that I need to shed some pounds. So this week, I have decided to start Weight Watchers and to begin really using my Wii/Wii Fit. Being from South Louisiana, the home of some of the best food, it will be hard to eat right. Lets just hope I can do it. I guess I need to put my New Year's Resolution to work. I am only 4 months late. My New Year's Resolution was to eat and be healthier. My goal, for now, is to loose 50 pounds all together. I want to feel better and have more energy. Since diabetes runs in my family, I hope to prevent that too.
