Location: New Jersey, à la capital
Human Name and Age: Lizzy, 8/28/84
Cat Name and Age:
Family Name: Marzi; shortened from Marzipan (click for the
recipe)
and is the equivalent of a teenager (duh)
Particular Name: Rampantessa
Deep and Inscrutable Name: that would be... Oops, I forgot, I
can't tell you! (I'm cheesy, I know)
Human Markings: short, fat, and ugly, or if you're really
interested, 5' 3", black-brown-black/brown (lol, long story, did
you know hair dyed black doesn't take very well at ALL to other hair dye
colors? OY! Yes I have a brown stripe around my head!) sorta shoulder
length hair with anime-like bangs (trust me, it's a curse, you do NOT
want anime-like hair in real life... thankfully my bangs were sort of
behaving for the school picture you see below), paler than death, hazel eyes (change colors
depending on what I wear!)
A picture of me is to the lower right. It's a school picture. Don't I
look happy?
Kitty Markings: red and brown swirls with tabby stripes and
leopard spots everywhere except chest and back, where it is white, and
legs, which are white with brown and red stripes and black spots, and
forearms which are white blending to black at the paw (I must have been
on a sugar high when I thought this up)
Personality: Is very shy on human terms, but as soon as I get on
the net, I'm not so shy (most of my net friends would agree with that),
am a bit hyper ("I have to much blood in my caffeine system"),
and I'm also a werefeline, most likely a simple housecat, if you're confused go to my
other page which is WAY out of date (and mostly a big lie ^_~).
Family: An engineer dad, a lawyer's secretary mom, and two terrible
awful horrible little sisters who I would seriously enjoy killing.
Pets: 3 cats (Nicky, Wicky, and Figaro). Nicky is gray with white
feet and belly, Wicky is a blue cream tortishell, and Figaro is black
with white feet, belly and chin. A dog (stinky!!! oh wait.. Freddy) who is a German
Shepard, and he smells like the Bog of Eternal Stench , 2 guppies (Razzle
and Dazzle, Razzle is a baby, her mom died the day we bought her!), a hamster (Poofy, my sister's), a bunny (also my sister's, his
name is Coco), and a boa
constrictor, who is Snakey (that's his name). Would you like to buy a
snake? He's for sale! If I sell him (or her), I'm getting 2 rats.
Hobbies: Welp, I've been a
lil arteest ever since I could grasp a pencil (my first real drawing was
of a horse milkman (???), and at the time I wanted to be a person who
sold pretzels out of a vending cart at the mall when I grew up), so I
love to draw. I do not have a single notebook that has no doodling (and
a lot of it!) in it, and I usually choose an art subject in school. Last
year I took Theatrical Design, which involves drafting and building
models of stages, and at the end of the course, we had to design a set
and build a scale model of it for a play (there are 3 people in my class,
including me, so our class is made up of actually 3 classes, Theatrical
Design, Environmental Design, and Studio). I did Cats, of course! So now
I have a little scale model of the Cats stage. ^_^ I like it. My other hobbies would be BIG TIME costuming. I love it! It's
just so fun to make something with your own hands that'll disguise and
let you live out some fantasies in a way. Right now I'm very into Cats
Costuming. I also love to dance. Right now I'm only taking
jazz, but when ever the time rolls around, I'm signing up for ballet
(and maybe tap or lyrical). I want to take jazz, tap, ballet, lyrical,
modern, Irish, clogging, acro, belly, exotic yadda yadda yadda... I also
love Halloween. I'll be trick-or-treating till I'm 83, because it gives
me an excuse to show off my costume and get free candy at the same time.
Aspirations and Goals: Well,
my goals have sort of changed a little.. okay, a lot. Right now I have
no idea what I'd like to do for a living. Dance would be fun but not to
live off of, the arts are an extremely competitive job thingy and I'm
just not up to it. Maybe I'll be an auto mechanic, I can fix my own car
and overcharge people to fix theirs. Maybe I'll be a fashion or costume
designer or go into making webpages or maybe I'll live out of a Volkswagen
hippie van and travel the country doing things. I have no idea, and
frankly, that sucks.
My History with Cats: When I was a wee little one, I was watching
Reading Rainbow, and the episode had a thing on Cats. I remember saying, "Mommy, mommy!
Can we see Cats?", and she said no because we lived too far away
from NYC at the time. I mainly wanted to see it because my favorite
critters were cats, so why wouldn't I want to see a play about people
dressed up as cats running around a junkyard singing and dancing? Almost
every other Halloween I was a cat (black turtleneck, black sweatpants,
ears stuck to a head band, hair in a braid, nose and whiskers drawn on
with mom's eyeliner, and a fake tail with a wire in it). I eventually
forgot about it, but we moved to NJ, where we had cable (our old house
only had basic TV) and every time the Cats commercial would come on, I
would say "Can we see Cats?", and the answer was always no,
because my parents wouldn't want to drive all the way up to NYC (takes
about an hour) just to see a play about people dressed up as cats
running around a junkyard singing and dancing. It was also one of those
things in the back of my mind to research on the net when I was bored,
but I never remembered to do it. But finally one night, Cats was on
TV!!! I was ecstatic! But since I had never seen it, and it was at a
boring type part, my mom made me change the channel and I did. PBS
showed it a million other times, though, so I watched it almost every
time. We bought the video tape about a week after it premiered, and I've
watched it so many times I'm ashamed of it, and I wish I had only seen
the video once so it didn't ruin the live experience like it did. After
enough begging, I got my mom to call the theatre in Scranton, PA (the
tour came in April) and she bought tickets for the whole
family (center mezzanine, first row)! She was excited too! She
also bought a ticket for me to see Cats on Broadway on March 31 (second
row to the stage, on the aisle!!!), and I am eternally grateful for
that. It was awesome! I saw it again in July (with Michael Gruber! Why
does everybody love him so much? I don't see it...) with Jemima whom I
met off the internet. We were supposed to go in full costume, but it was
very hot out and we would have melted if we did. So we just wore our
wigs and makeup, she as Jemima and I as Rumpleteazer. I then saw it in
December on Jacob Brent's very last day, and it was a very emotional
purrformance! I had standing room seats (we moved up to second row house
right during intermission), and I thank Hector Montalvo for helping me
get those tickets. Thank you so much! I also met a whole bunch of other
Cats fans that I knew from online, and I bought a jellicle ball (they're
Christmas ornaments based on the cats, the ball will be the main colors
of the cat it represents and have a small piece of fabric on it from the
actual costume) of Bombalurina, and a calendar. I went in January, next,
with my whole family and I had an AMAZING seat. It was in Row K right in
front of the ramp!! We all had a TON of fun. THE RUM TUM TUGGER DANCED
WITH MEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!! NEXT, I went in March (we
had special discounted tickets for these 2 shows if you're wondering how
we afforded it.. my family is NOT even CLOSE to wealthy) with Aurora who
I knew from online, and we went in full costume. I dressed up as a black
in white cat (my Bombalurina costume was not finished). I was all black
except for my face and a chest triangle, and my arm warmers were white
and black striped (one had a red stripe) and my legwarmers were black
with white cow spots. Aurora dressed as Rumpleteazer from her song. We
had SO MUCH FUN!!! AHHH!!!! Then we went again June 16th but with a HUGE
group of people in costume! Eighteen of us went who had on some sort of
Cats attire! Sixteen in full costume! WOW! We had too much fun. Pictures
here! The next and last time I saw Cats on Broadway was in August,
the week before my birthday. I had a pretty bad seat (I wish I has
bought standing room) U26. I moved up to Row K near left/center during
intermission, though. Good move! During intermission I met up with my
friend Taylor whom I'd met twice before at Cats, and we went backstage
for a few minutes and talked with Julius Sermonia (Misto) and Jon-Erik
Goldberg (Pouncival). I also saw the new Demeter perform! She was VERY
good and, believe it or not, she's from my hometown! My New Jersey one..
she lived in Ewing which is a few miles from here. :)
