Being Broken

This year is Life Boot Camp for me, I think. All of my negative and inactive habits and tendencies will be beaten out of me, and I will be a responsive, active performer and person. All my classes are boot camp. My personal life is boot camp too. The only thing that truly upsets me about all of this is that there's no room in it for cynicism. And I like my cynicism. But, these things happen.

On a side note, what on earth is the logic behind taking a nap, setting an alarm clock, and then pressing the snooze button for 3 hours? That's not sleep! Not that I'd know anything about sleep lately...

I've been found!

Life is cool. Generally.

I finally had an inaugural party at my place tonight, after living here for two months. Nothing big, just a board game night with the improvisers. I kind of miss last year when everyone hung out in our room all the time, it was nice filling up the living room for once. And as dorky as it sounds, board game night never fails. Easy to plan, energetic, really chill. Loaded Questions is a really awesome game.

This is a busy time of year. Even for the twelve-credit-wonder with no exams, job, or show to work on. Auditions every night this week, halloween approaching (and no idea whatsoever of a costume). And even though I have no exams, I do have monologues and projects that are kicking my ass. I need to write a short story within the next couple weeks. I know I will put it off til the very last Thursday night. I just know it.

Secrets

I was reading Tasha's blog today and started thinking "Hmm, maybe I should make a blog. I like having random thoughts and writing them down." But I don't think I'm going to tell anyone about my blog. That will make it all the more fun if anybody finds it. I take this attitude toward a lot of things.

It would be nice if the people who are fixing things in my apartment would a) leave and b) not make the entire place smell like cigarette smoke. I can smell it from the bedroom.

I think it's time for me to spend some time in Minnesota. Or at the very least, to take myself on a date to an art museum and check out a new coffee shop. Enough of this football and beer bullshit.
