STS Ch-53
“Holy shit! That was the best film I’ve ever seen!” Daisy shouted the second the screen faded to black. “Language!” Mom scolded, shooting Daisy a sharp look. “We talked about this, Daisy. You need to control how you express yourself better. You’re not a kid anymore.” Daisy rolled her eyes and gave Mom a defiant stare before turning to me, throwing her hands up in frustration. “See what I have to deal with? On top of schoolwork, Zach’s nonsense, and now Mom too. You and Zach say…- 199.4 K • Ongoing

Gene Siskel didn’t have high expectations when he received an invitation to the premiere of . The reason was simple: had been such a big hit two years ago that copies were bound to follow. This happens with every film that becomes a major success, whether it’s comedy, romance, tragedy, sci-fi, or even horror. Slasher horror, especially, makes copying easier because it can be made cheaply and quickly. If is a hit, more copies and inspirations of the movie will permeate Hollywood. “What do you…- 199.4 K • Ongoing

~My first love broke my heart for the first time, and I was like Baby, baby, baby, oh Like baby, baby, baby, no Like baby, baby, baby, oh Thought you'd always be mine, mine~ I watched Zoe Kravitz sing with slightly judgmental eyes and raised eyebrows. "Really?" I asked. "You have to sing that one out of all the songs in the world?" Justin Bieber had made his debut with "Baby" only recently, and the song had exploded worldwide. It was one of the biggest debuts any young pop star had…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

February 2008, Staples Center, Los Angeles, CA, USA “Why did we leave the red carpet early?” Scarlett asked in a low whisper as we were guided to our seats. The auditorium was already half full, buzzing with murmured conversations and the low hum of anticipation. Most of the non-red carpet guests had already arrived. My family had stayed behind this time for security reasons. “It’s just security being security,” I replied, keeping my tone casual. “They initially told me not to stop for…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

May 2009, New York City, USA “Ladies and gentlemen, Troy Armitage!” I walked out through the studio doors with a bright smile on my face. The in-house band sat to my left, just by the edge of the stage. Beyond them was the sea of faces that made up my audience for the night. The moment my name was announced, the crowd erupted into thunderous applause that echoed across the studio. I waved as I stepped to the center of the stage. “Thank you,” I said, though my voice was almost lost beneath…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

“Maintain your note for ten seconds, then give a pause for five then continue with next. Start with C, then C-sharp, D, D-sharp, and so on till you reach F-sharp.” Mr. Tanner instructed. I cleared my throat for good measure and began my practice. Practicing vocals with a coach was so much different from working alone. My previous coach didn’t have much experience with singing herself. She covered the basics of notes and voice pitch well enough but after that, even I with my limited experience…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

~I believe That God lives on a planet called Kolob I believe That Jesus has his own planet as well And I believe That the Garden of Eden was in Jackson County, Missouri~ The crowd went wild as Troy, as Elder Price, clasped the hand of the African warlord, General Butt Fucking Naked, and launched into a full-blown dance on stage. Scarlett looked around the hall and saw people losing their shit all around her, clapping, cheering, and wiping tears of laughter from their eyes as they…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

“What do you mean she’s not good for this role?” I asked, barely stopping myself from shouting at the director. “The moment she started acting, it felt like she was made for this part. And she’s tall too, just like you wanted.” Paul leaned back in his chair and shook his head slowly. “I can’t say it with certainty. I just didn’t like her. Not once did she look me or anyone else in the eye. That’s not the sign of a good actor.” Samuel Rivers, the studio executive sitting in on…- 199.4 K • Ongoing

Doug typed furiously, the rhythmic clack of the typewriter keys echoing through the small, stuffy room. Sheets of paper already littered the floor around his chair, the casualties of discarded ideas. He was working on the rewrite of one of the key scenes of The Blue Lagoon, and the pressure weighed heavily on him. Just yesterday, Randal had urged him to hurry, insisting the production was moving faster than anyone had anticipated. The crew was somehow shooting underwater scenes at an astonishing pace.…- 199.4 K • Ongoing

I love motorbikes. I wasn’t rich, per se, but I had five of them in my little garage. My mom used to hate that I took one of my babies wherever I went instead of driving a car like normal people. Fuck normal people. They don’t know the joy of riding long distances in the fresh air, all the way out into the countryside, without a helmet, as the wind caresses your hair. Aah. I must have closed my eyes while riding because the next thing I knew, my baby had run over a boulder. The bike came to…- 199.4 K • Ongoing
