Long Time No See. . .

Holy shit, I haven't posted since over a month now.

I remember I use to post on this thing like all the time. . . I guess I really don't need it anymore, but I'm still going to post shit on here when I'm in the mood and I guess that day is today. Well first off let me say I'm hungry. . . I didn't have time to fix me some ego waffles I stole from my mom house this morning. I had to be at work by 9:00, woke up like at 8:50. But I got here on time.

Man things has been going quite well lately. Staying busy, as usual. Balancing three jobs and theater can be tough, but so far I'm managing. And to be honest, I like staying busy. Don't get me wrong, I think it's important to have like a "rest" day, in which you doing absolutely nothing. But If I don't anything for a while, I go crazy.

I'm glad the semester is finally over! Oh god, dead week was basically theater finals week, and I'm just glad that its all over.

Hamlet was an awesome show! Fucking loved it, but I'm glad it's over and done with. It feels good to have some evenings free lately.

I got cast in the faust show "Raised in Captivity" which I think is going to be an awesome show. We have a really talented cast and producition team! So EXCITED!!! My only concern is that I hope this don't exclude my chances to be considered in "Our Country's Good." Well I have a small feeling that Scott may think I'm doing way to much. Then again, Jeff did do three shows last year. I dunno, I guess we see what will happen. But, rehearsals start tomorrow!!!!!! WOOT!

I'm also really happy I am going to ACTF. I never gone before and I think it's an honor to go as a partner. Maria asked me to go with her as her acting partner, which to be honest I was shocked that someone would even ask me. We are having our read through today and everything. These next couple of weeks I'm going to work really hard on faust show and scenes for ACTF, I all ready have some of my lines memorized for Faust. Man, this is going to be fun.

I know it may sound creepy and everything, but I know I am a busy person, it's just that I get REALLY excited if it has to do anything with theater and willing to put every effort into it!

I will say again and again how much I love my friends. 

I found my glasses the other day. They have been missing since September and I found them the other day in 006 on a seating unit. It was crazy, because I just ordered a new pair like the day before :( But oh well.

Oh my god, I saw Eargon and Pursuit of Happyness. Amazing. Well, Eargon is a bad movie in general, I mean it was bad. But for some sick reason I fucking loved it. I'm going to start reading the books. And Pursuit of Happyness is just freaking awesome. I cried atleast 5 times throughout the movie. Will Smith really impressed me, I mean REALLY. It was fucking great.

That's pretty much how my life has been, not to shabby. Maybe I should get back to work now. . .Yes?

Dude. . .

This footprint thing is kind of freaky. . . I mean I assume people I don't know read this, but the fact that it keeps track how many times it happens its sorta awkward. . .

Anywho.

My head fucking hurts like hell. Been stressing out a lot lately. Need to calm down. But it's sorta hard to. I mean part of your brian is telling you to calm down while the other half is constantly bringing up stress related materials.

gah.

Costume party was so fucking awesome. Had one hell of a great time.


off to rehearsals.

An Unorganized Brian

Well, Well, Well, I see we meet again. . .

Life has been going quite well, can't complain too much tho.

**sigh** have you ever had so much on your mind you just can't organize them to either write them down or to even think of them? Well, that's how my mind is right now.

I admit I have been neglecting this Xanga for quite a while, guess I've been growing out of it. But fuck that, I need to write some thoughts down. Let's try to organize my thoughts. . .

Thought 1: "Drinking"

Well, as everyone know, I've been getting drunk like every weekend since school started, except for one weekend. I'm not ashame of it at all, but I think it's time to ease down on the booze for a while. Well, I know the faust halloween party is coming up, Tom's 21st birthday, Hamlet cast party. So pretty much after that, I'm going to take it easy. And it's not the fact that I've been drunk every weekend, it's more, i'm just getting tired of it. By all means I have a great time doing it, but it's just getting tiring. And it's not like I drink every day, I can't see how people can do that, it's just going out on the weekends. So easy on the booze is a for sure.

Thought 2: "Financial"

Well, I'm going to be more organized with money. I'm getting a credit card, for I can build credit for the future. Looking for a new car, cut down on fast food completely, and just be more careful. I've slowly been paying off my tuition which is a good thing, I'm almost down with that, thank god. I just want to be more organized. . . I even thought about requesting not being in a show next semester. Like not auditioning because I want to look for an evening job, for I can save money for I can move out next summer. . . which leads me to my next thought. But knowing me, I love theater so much, so I will just go ahead and audition and if I don't get cast than that's cool, if I do it's still cool. Just trying to be organized here. . . But I do love theater O so much.

Thought 3: "Friends"

I truly do love my friends. And I'm a person where I befriend anyone, but I do have  a select few whom I stay the closes with. Am I guilty for being friends for someone since the 4th grade, in which we are not that close but are close. . . if that makes sense, he considers me his bestfriend, but I actually don't. I mean truly we do like nothing together, I truly think he just says i'm his best friend, just to say he has one. And I've known someone for like 6 months, and I feel that we are on the same page and I'm considering him a best friend, I mean, am I guilty for thinking that? I mean I was informed that I'm not, but, it's sorta hard for me to really really really trust people, because I've been backstab/used so many times in my life by those people who I considered close friends. . .

Thought 4: "Living"

Well, I am highly considering not being an RA next year. I mean don't get me wrong, it's a great job, and I recommend people to become one. It's just that, being an RA and a theater major it's just not cutting it. I don't have time. I mean so far I'm balancing everything, but it sucks tho. SO me and Tom and this cool guy name Jake are considering looking for a house. Which would be cool because then we can have parties next year. Plus, I lived on campus for almost two years, and I'm sorta ready to leave. To really experience being a young adult and everything. . . So I dunno.

Thought 5: "Hamlet"

Rehearsals are going pretty damn well for Hamlet. I'm going to be honest, I'm having trouble finding Rosencrantz. I mean, working with Chris ir pretty cool, but I still don't understand what Cindy is quite looking forward. I spoke with her and Dani couple of times, and by the judge of it, they want us to be couple of stupid goof balls. Which is cool and all, I just want to be able to do that and not look like we are trying really hard to be funny. . . if that make sense. And sometimes when I go and talk to Cindy she goes off and talk about other people. . . that can be annoying. But like I said, rehearsals are going smoothly for being three weeks until we open. We have one HELL of a GREAT cast. Oh my dear god we kick butt. A lot of good stuff is happening here.

Thought 6: "Understanding People"

I'm starting to understand  I have high expectations of people and I need to quit it. My mother raise me to be a respectable young man, and I can say that I am. And it kind of pisses me off when people are just plain rude or don't have manners. You know whatever happens to the "please and thank you's." There were times I did shit to help other people, I mean truly help them, in which I did not get a single thank you out of it. Or just a phone call to see if I'm still alive or anything. I dunno. Certain people just get under my skin when they do that.

ugh.

Thought 7: "Voice Class"

Don't get me wrong, I respect Amy as a teacher. She has a strong background and I can learn a lot from her, it's just that I disagree with some of her tactics in the classroom. And I'm sure other voice students can agree. I also think to myself, am I jealous? I mean I was really looking forward to a "D. Scott Glasser Year" Voice in the fall and Acting II in the spring. I really like Scott and love what and how he does it. But we got Amy and she's not bad, I just miss Scott.

Thought 8: "STOP IT!"

Plain and simple. I need to stop being insecure. . . I can't help it. People will be surprise how insecure I really am.

Well, that's pretty much it. Actually to be honest I feel better writing these thoughts down. Well, I better get some sleep, Darin and I are going to the gym tomorrow morning at 6:30, YIKES!
