HAPPY BIRTHDAY SLM!

Hi everyone :D I am part of an amazing group of amazing super effing epic people, called Starkid Life Missions. Before we get started, I want to state a problem: WHEN I AM AWAKE NO ONE ELSE IS! Most of the people in SLM live in America or Europe. I live in Indonesia, which is 11 hours ahead of the east coast, so that's kinda annoying. Now I'm gonna start saying good things. Quote from our amazing Mama, Sophie (I edited it out last names, for privacy):

" Sunday, January 23, 2011 at 10:21 PM... STARKID LIFE MISSIONS!!! was born.
Emily added Kelsie and they became admins. The first official post, by Emily, "Okay so here is the first step to me and Kelsie's plan. Add everyone to the group that you know of that likes Starkid... and go!" was posted Sunday, January 23, 2011 at 10:23 PM. 
By Tuesday, May 24, 2011, at 10:48 PM, there are 249 members of STARKID LIFE MISSIONS!!! and I would be the one to find the very first post...The first..of 8,141. "

Tomorrow, it's seven months. Happy 7-month anniversary, SLM."
That was beautiful :)
I just heard a spooky noise... Sorry I heard something make a noise on my roof and I'm mildly creeped out, though it most probably a cat. Or a murderer.... 

...*coughcough*...

Back to the magic that is SLM. I joined around April/May of this year. At 1st I was SUCH a spare. I didn't do anything and I was too dumb to turn off e-mail notifications. I got about 60 e-mails a day. *Sigh* 
We don't only talk about Team Starkid/Glee/Harry Potter things. We help each other with real-life problems. We go through major events together. Like early access to Pottermore, the winner of the Glee Project. the release of HPDHP2. We've even had a love-fest! Needless to say, I love these guys. I would LOVE to meet some of you in person. Aussie SLM'ers, would you care to fly up here? Asian SLM'ers, what about you? I know that I've been in the same room as a few of them when I got to see 'How To Succeed', but I didn't get to see them. :'(  Maybe when Dare's on Broadway. 
I need to stop rambling and get to the point:
HAPPY 7 MONTH BIRTHDAY SLM!!!!!!! I LOVE YOU LIKE HERMAN-MONSTER LOVES ROONIL! <3<3<3<3<3<3<3 or as we say LESSTHANTREE!!!!!!!!!!!
~S<3
PS: TOAST!
Most of SLM, including me! I don't remember who made it, sorry! I'll edit after someone reminds me. If you need me I'm under the D. :)

Starship Review


Hey peoples :) Sorry I haven't posted recently. I was in Bali the 1st week of May and then I caught typhoid there so I had to stay at the hospital for another week and this week I had school so I'm sorry.

So, as you might know, Starship premiered on YouTube on April 30th and I still haven't said anything about it! I've seen it about 3 times already and I love it! They finally got mics! The puppets were beautiful and everyone was amazing. I question why we haven't really heard Dylan Saunders voice before now?! 'The Way I Do' and 'Kick It Up A Notch' are really, really, really good and I've been replaying them since I got them on my iPod 2 weeks ago. TOOTSIE NOODLES! :D
Joey Richter was also amazing, he says no to status quo :P The dude will be content to resent the status quo for dead god sakes! Sorry, I'm listening to the Starship album as I write this. The thing I don't understand is how February and Bug got together in the end. SHE DIDN'T DESERVE HIM!!!!!! At least we have Tootsie-Noodles/MegaGirl. But Up/Taz never actually became canon :( And I heard that they edited out the Krayonder/Specs I was really sad :( :(. Stuff like this really makes me wish I saw it live.
But the 3 new Starkids were wow. When I heard new people were coming on board I though 'There's no way that they'll fit in' but I was proved really wrong. 1st off Brant Cox is perfect and wonderful how I'd hoped he'd be (Sorry, listening to 'The Way I Do') Roach is a really solid character and Brant's voice is really impressive. Meredith Stepien is not exactly new (she was in 'Little White Lie') but LWL was pre-Starkid. MegaGirl :D Denise Donovan was funny as February and she seems like a really good person but she kind of failed during 'The Way I Do' (The YouTube version, the version that's available for download she was good in)
I've decided that if I could play any character I'd play Brian Holden's character, Junior. I know he's a guy and blahblahblah but I don't care! He gets the 'Kick It Up A Notch' reprise and he's the bad guy! If I had to play a female character it would be February. She seems like an easy character to play. I would say Taz as well but I wouldn't want to be compared to Lauren Lopez and I can't do a Spanish accent.
Aside from the actors the plot was a little scattered. It starts with Bug wanting to be a Starship Ranger and ends with everyone singing in harmony, typical. The plot does get a little confusing at times but you've gotta hand it to them. It's there 1st outside-of-school play and they did really well.
Some people really shined during the play. Brant Cox (Roach), Dylan Saunders (Tootsie Noodles and Pincer), Lauren Lopez (Taz and Buggette), Nick Lang (Mr. Bug, The Caller Bug, and One of Pincer's Claws). Yes I know, Nick's parts were really small but he really got into it. The way he puppeteers is incredible.
I'm off to watch Starship again!
