Relaxation Out of Contemplation

     I can't believe it! Just 5 minutes ago I had no idea that this site existed and now I already have a blog that I'm posting in! To be frank, it's been a long time since I've blogged anything (maybe 2007 or 8-ish), but I think I'm picking it up pretty well. That being said, I don't think I'll have enough time to blog every night; I shouldn't even be doing this right now, I have a lot of work from English class that I've been procrastinating about for way too long (which is a paradox, it seems). Nonetheless, I enjoy blogging for one simple reason: I don't have any true restrictions here; I can say what I want to say regardless of following some coherent plot-line or having to deal with character development that seems spontaneous. I love writing, but sometimes I just need a break from the usual creativity of it all; just kick back and throw out some old school journal-like writing. 

          As of now, my life has officially reached a point where I can say I am really comfortable. I may not have a girlfriend at the moment (although I do have a crush whose name I dare not speak anywhere albeit a few conversations with close friends), but I've just been living so fun, free, and energetic every day, trying to remain as optimistic as I can in preparation of Beal Musical Theatre's production of the Broadway musical Hairspray, which I'm starring in (and, no, I'm not playing the lead black role, which I did regret not auditioning for but, after much thought, I've gotten over). I've made so many new friends and met a lot of interesting new people through BMT, and I'm having the time of my life performing with them all on stage! In fact, my friends Gonzalo, Matt, and Zach (the Lenny to my Carl), have all formed a group, with me, called the Rat Pack; we are literally the definition of the word misfits.

Come On Down and see the Magic that is Hairspray

          While my life continues to evolve and I transcend through my teenage years to young adulthood, I start to ponder what my future holds and who I'll spend some of my most interesting days with. My passion is writing and acting! Speaking of acting, I really need to go schedule an appointment with my guidance councilor and see if I can switch some of my classes next year to drama classes (considering I wanna act and all); I'm also wearily contemplating whether or not I should participate in choir next year or not (I keep picturing myself next year, sitting on my bed, bored out of my skull, wishing I had selected an extra-curricular activity of some kind to do). Lord knows I'd never turn to sports as an extra-curricular activity, but choir or some other kind of work would be nice... Oh wait, I could just get a job! 


          And, as an added measure of awesomeness to those who may read this, here's the link to my newest draft of a Mortal Kombat script that is truly one of my longest projects so far. My next project appears to be a new musical called "Insanity's Bride," which I'll be collaborating on with my friends Matt Butler and Sharon Fisher! Anywho, enjoy:
