Life is hard, damn it

Hi, guys. This may be a long entry. It also might be a short entry. It might also be a standard-length entry that takes me ages to write and thus feels like a long entry. I make no guarantees and shall not be held to any standards of length

Holler at feeling left out on that. I can't graduate early--I'm too afraid to leave college and enter the real world.

oh my god! oh my god! you're listening to JOHN MAYER!! do you remember once upon a time when you really did not enjoy him? i do. on our french club field trip into the city...beginning of senior year? junior year? i can't remember anymore. now i feel old. aaaaaaaanyway.

put on your trunks, boy. time to jump in!

Heavier Things is a great album, and I definitely remember not liking John Mayer. I think it was becaue bloody Mix 104.1 used to play "Your Body Is A Wonderland" every half hour and I'd had quite enough of it. Who knows? Maybe James Blunt is worth a damn, too, but if I hear "You're Beautiful" one more time I'm going to do something drastic.

I bought Heavier Things at Amoeba in Berkeley, which is interesting because that French trip we took ended at Amoeba on Haight Street, where I bought Brothers In Arms.

Not everyone can have distinction of a receding hairline.

Hmm. I would probably poop myself thinking about moving to New York on top of graduating a semester early. Though, New York to me is like "the big kids' pool" where they won't stop splashing. If you're up for the Big Apple, i'd say go for it. What would be the worst thing? You don't like it and move home (*big smile*)?

In terms of classes and theatre at school, that is a pickle. There are perks to both of your situations. Graduate early, yay, no more school and you save money. If you pace yourself, you get to finish college slowly instead of it being WAM BAM DONE BYE! Personally, I HATE the idea of class fillers. I'm dealing with that shit now.

So... I'm sure that helped as much as it would have if I hadn't say anything. All I know is... in San Fran... we go to 24 hour Naan and Curry. Mmmm... chicken tikki masala. Yep, now I know you've made up your mind.

Now, I'm off to the gym. Thursday's arms and back.

"I'm sure that helped as much as it would have if I hadn't say anything." Not true. It's nice to know there are other people who are similarly mixed-up. We'll see what happens; I sway back-and-forth from day to day about when to graduate. I spoke with my acting professor yesterday; she suggested I look at schools other than ACT, which I admitted I was serious about only because I know it exists. She suggested (how about this?) I look at NYU and New School, a place in Louisville, one in Denver, and (ready?) UCSD or Irvine. I thought it was interesting.

Why aren't you working on getting that booze tolerance up? You know that if you're dancing around the club after one martini, you're not going to score any big Hollywood deals. Smoking helps too, btw. Let me know if you want to hire me as your "I'm acting like an adult while consuming various substances" mentor.

That was Kevin, btw.
