CURRENTLY LISTENING TO:
"BENEDICTION" by THE WEAKERTHANS
The art of pretending is my favorite of all. Specially when it's masked with the word "theatrical acting." One Act Season has begun. The pretenders that make up our student theater body are quite curious adolescent characters that speak of gay things (literally) and use a cell phone to listen to the latest tunes during class (an excuse to show off their singing abilities; observing is enjoyable). Like all, I am flawed: I take theatre quite seriously. Although I'm willing to admit that I am no where close to the best at acting, but as self-absorbed as this sounds: I'm certain I know what it takes, it is simply not my focus of expression. I want this year's One Act production to be spectacular, not just another "cute little thing" that makes people want to pat our back and grin a little. I want what we do to make leave people speechless, to make them want to invite us out for shots of vodka (I'm the only one who wishes this) and I understand fully that there are limitations when it comes to One Act. I'm certain that all these funny little people and I have what it takes to not only make the best of One Act, but also re-difine our own activity horizons. I'm a big dreamer, sure, something that can be mistaken for an unrealistic grasp of things. But fuck... "Ambition" is my middle name...

I'd gladly take you out for shots of vodka! But, just so you are aware, the shot glasses will actually only have water in them. I care about you FAR too much to give you vodka, MC.
