Well, it's that time again. How often have I opened with a line like that? Gah, whatever. Anyhow, I'm nearly done with my first semester of college and I have found it most enjoyable, though I am glad it is nearly over. I'm officially going to school full fledged for theatre and I've got to say it's not going to be easy but hell I'm willing put forth the effort it takes to make it. This semester we put on three productions, two one acts and one full length. The first one act we did was called Wiley and the Hairy Man and it was a kids show. I was in this one, as the dog. It doesn't sound like much, but it was a hell of a lot of fun to do. I had a freaking blast. Then after that came the full length play, which as called the Laramie Project. I teched for this show, I ran the sound board. Then after that we put on the world premier of a one act called A Streetcar Named Katrina. And yes, it is a spoof off of A Streetcar Named Desire. That show was fun, but only at the end when we actually got to perform it, all before that it was a pain in the ass.
It's funny how fast these past few months have gone by, and how much has happened. I came to a lot of realizations concerning various things, my life personally, my choosen proffesion, that kind of thing. I know that theatre is going to take a lot more time and effort than I had ever realized before, which is ok with me. It's a lot of fun, it does take a lot of work, but it's so much fun. I love the kinds of people and the sense of humor that I've encountered. Like anything in life you're going to find that one person you just can't seem to get along with, but for the most part I've found that even if I'm not close to these people I do like them a great deal. I also finally know where I am going to attempt to go to college at. I had been toying with the idea of UCF but I got to thinking about it and FSU is really much more conveniant than UCF. I would much rather an hour and a half drive, than the potential eight hour drive it would take to get to Orlando. I have other reasons for making this choice but I'm not getting into those here.
As far as realizations about my life personally I just kind of woke up to the way I really am. What I mean by that is, I finally realized how I'm going to be for pretty much the rest of my life. I like the lose and more or less care free way I live right now and I've realized that I want to keep things this way. I don't want to change for anything or anyone. It's odd how one can live a certain way and never really think about it until something threatens that way of living. I suppose that since I lived with my bro for so long that I never had a chance to realize how much I liked this way of living so now I'm finally seeing that. I come and go more or less as I wish at my house (within reason of course) and I have friends over as late as I want, without worrying about whether or not I'm bothering anyone else. I just love the feeling about the way I live, it's comforting and enjoyable.
There is a lot more I want to type, but I'm too tired right now so I'll have to come back to this... which probably means I'll forget about it for a while but hey, whatever.
