Hello cats and kittens!
Are you curious and creative, spunky yet sweet? Glam and glitzy, but down-to-earth? Outspoken, but never rude? Do you dig putting your uniqueness on display? Do you love taking inspiration from the past while looking forward to
the future? If you answered YES to these
questions, then you are what I call a Pesky
Meddling Girl. And that, I’m proud to say, is what I am too!
The LIFE IS A MOVIE STARRING YOU game is created by and for Pesky Meddling
Girls like us! This game is for every girl who knows that life isn’t about sitting in the audience—it’s about being up on your own silver screen! And every time you play it, you learn new things about yourself, and your friends, too.
It all began one night when a magical mantra came to me in a dream: Life Is a Movie Starring Me! It was a totally empowering revelation. Life is not a dress rehearsal. You are the

director, writer, music coordinator, costumer…and, most of all, STAR! So now you have the Pesky power, it’s prime time to play the game. You write the script, hold the
casting call, choose the wardrobe, and conduct the audition!
I’ll tell you a story: Back in school, I tried way too hard to be cool, not realizing that the coolest girl on this planet was living right inside my heart. Now all I had to do was find her. So, at sixteen, I started searching for a creative outlet, a place to explore my inner voice and share my passion for fashion and opinions with other girls. I had always dreamed of becoming editrix-in-chief of my very own magazine, so I started a fanzine. (A fanzine, or ’zine, is a homemade, cut and paste, collaged magazine, duplicated on any copy machine. Anyone can do it!)
My ’zine needed a killer title, so I flipped through the dictionary. I came across two wacky words that had almost identical meanings: Pesky and Meddling, which were both equally nosy and annoyingly curious. Sounded purrfect!

in a sparkly pink nutshell. Pretty soon my ’zine was a hit not only at my school, but real celebs started ordering issues. My dream had come true!
What do you want to be when you grow up?’’ is a question we all hear often as kids, but it doesn’t have to be about what we’re going to become in the future. We can be it right now!
Once you’ve caught a glimpse of your own life’s story line, mark your clapboard, roll up those sequined sleeves, roll out that imaginary red carpet, and remember…it’s always going to be your name up on that glowing marquee, and it’s always going to be your feet on life’s glittering walk of fame. No more waiting in the wings! Because after all, LIFE IS A MOVIE STARRING YOU…and I wish you a very happy ending.
Let the glammy game begin!
