well, update already

since my last post i have succesfully changed my monologue before auditions and landed the biggest role of my life to date. so, life's going well. we (fpc marietta) leave tomorrow for sharp top, and i couldn't be more excited. some mishaps has come up though. one of my fellow actors is sick. i personally do not know what this means as of right now, but we'll find out if we need to pick up and move on or just carry on as normal. big weekend this weekend.

Title: The Visit

SHOW DATES: Nov. 15-17 @ 7:30 PM and Nov. 18 @ 2:00 PM

so...

i've moved into my new apartment, and when i say new, i mean NEW. it still smells like caulking and the fridge actually keeps things cold! school has yet to start, and besides the fact that i have a pretty tough schedule, i think it's going to be fun. i'm taking a lot of theatre classes to (hopefully) hone my craft and make my way up the ladder in the department. speaking of which, auditions are thursday (tomorrow) and i just picked out a monologue, fun right? let's see how far I get without looking in the book.

"You want to know how low I've sunk? I didn't even speak to Edith. I made a phone call pretending to talk to her to scare the Edith and Karen in my head out of here... I tricked myself, i fell for it... the thing about going crazy is that it makes you incredibly smart, in a dumb sort of way. But I do feel like I'm loosing a grip on my life. As if I'm spiraling downward in diminishing circles like water being drained from a bathtub and sudden;y my big toe gets sucked in and I'm left screaming for my life... No. Not my life, my mother. Why, tell me why is it always your mother? It's never your father or your uncle or your second cousin from Detroit..."

there's more, but i don't know it quite yet. i don't even think the part i wrote down is correct, so a little prayer for some focus would be nice. other than that i guess some prayer that i could get back into the sming of things would be helpful as well.

that's it for now, hopefully i'll start posting more regularly.

song...

last blog kinda set the scene for this song:

"Babe"

All the love we shared, you can have it back
'Cause now it don't mean jack to me anymore
Take back your pretty hair and your big green eyes
'Cause they have all but lost the love you used to have for me

(All of you)
I want all of you
(None of me)
But you want none of me
So, I guess I'll leave you alone

Make me out to be the victim
Make me out to be the one who's hurt (x2)

So dump your weight on him, 'cause it's rolled off my back
I hope he's got a knack for talking like the way we did
One day I'll move one, and you'll be in my past
Wishing that the "us" we had could've had a chance to last

(All of you)
I want all of you
(None of me)
But you want none of me
So, I guess I'll leave you alone

Make me out to be the victim
Make me out to be the one who's hurt (x2)

I'll never call you babe again, I won't even call you friend

(All of you)
I want all of you
(None of me)
But you want none of me
So, I guess I'll leave you alone

Make me out to be the victim
Make me out to be the one who's hurt (x2)

I want all of you
But you want none of me
----

Oh well, it's what I felt and now it's done.

Awesome Road Rules Video

The following is a video of a bet that started as a joke, but then quickly escalated to an all out leg-licking catastrophe. CAUTION: the following video does contain tongues and legs.

done.

so i'm back home for summer after the easiest hard class i have ever had to take. i say easy/hard because we had a crap load of work to do, but it was only for three weeks. i am so glad i got to take it now instead of later. i am still, however, one credit hour short of being a sophmore, lucky me right? oh well... i got my deposit back from campus housing and what else would i do with that money but buy music? i bought Dreamboat Annie - Heart and it is mindblowing. Ann Wilson sings like an angel. i also got The Village Sessions - John Mayer. it's not bad, it's acoustic, new John Mayer. also got me some E.L.O. (Electric Light Orchestra for the n00bz), and i'm SIKED about it. well, i like music.
