I had my acting audition for QUT today. I think it went ok, but I'm not holding my breath. There are only twelve spots in the course and there were at least twenty in my audition slot alone. I'll find out tomorrow if I got a callback. If I'm "unsuccessful", as the flyer says, I'll take after-school acting classes and try again next year. Mom bought ( Read more... )

          I'm in the library, preparing to do French work, once I can be bothered. I just gave $50 to Amnesty International. It's a fair bit of money for me, so now I have that really crappy sense of righteousness and benevolence. I hate the idea of basking in generosity. One of my classmates came up and spoke to the entire school of behalf of the ( Read more... )

Here is my schedule for the rest of the day:

• 3:00-4:00 Clean Room (I really hope it doesn't actually take that long)
• 4:00-5:00 Study for Drama SAC
• 5:00-6:00 Catch up on French
• 6:00-7:00 Study for Drama SAC
• 7:00-7:30 Dinner (probably pizza, the kids have rehearsal and Maria and Greg are going out for her birthday)

 I'm so dissapointed in myself. We got our marks back for our ensemble performances in drama (worth seventy percent of our mark for the unit). I got sixty-two and a half out of seventy, and as others rejoice over seventies and sixty-eights I can't help but feel a little inadequate. I just haven't worked hard enough. I haven't really worked at all. ( Read more... )

All right, I have commited one of the most flagrant acts of anti-femminism. I have retreated into the world of passionate love, neglecting my journal-keeping and the interest of my female friends (or the sisterhood, if you will oblidge me) so I can dilly around in the disney-like land of adolescent romance. Worse yet, I have returned to grovel at ( Read more... )

It's wet and muggy here in Brisbane, and I'm sitting in the Cleveland Library paying to use an internet connection. I slept on an air mattress last night in the new house, and spent most of the morning forcing myself almost unconciously through Heart of Darkness. I think I'm reading it without knowing exactly what I'm reading, and I'm afraid I'll ( Read more... )

I don't know if any of this is going to make sense to you, I'm practically comatose and don't know why. I've been fine all week, taken my pills every day, coped really well at work, but suddenly I'm lost. I should be doing one of many things:

• Choreographing a dance to Whistle While you Work from Snow White
• Clean my bedroom and bathroom
• Finish ( Read more... )

I don't know why I need to write, but I'm so bored at the moment and I can't find a single thing with which to occupy myself. At least, nothing seems attractive enough to actually attempt. I've been off of work for an hour and a half, but somehow I'm exhausted and motivationless. Nothing really sounds like fun or seems worthwhile. I'm just this ( Read more... )

I'm home alone for the first time in my life. I suppose not in the strictist sense of the phrase, but it is most defiantley the first time I've stayed in a building for two nights without anyone else around. Last night was a bit scary, actually. I was alone, bored and fatigued. I suspect this all contributed to a severe urge to cut, which I ( Read more... )
