Let's pretend like there is no down side, k?
Oh Christ, what a mistake. This is a placeholder for tomorrow... Seriously. What. A. Night.
Edit update:
Oh boy... Let's see what I haven't mentioned.
Theatre
I fucking love my directing class right now. There's no doubt about it at all in my head... This is what I want to do with my life. And because of Charlie Richter's encouragements, I feel like I might have a shot.
You see, for our first presentations Charlie kept complimenting me on catching good notes and stuff but I thought nothing of it. I mean, fuck, he says that to everyone. Then he did something he DOESN'T tell everyone that totally side swiped me: He told me that the play that I directed was the best first showing he'd ever seen at Muhlenberg. He said it was better than a lot of final showings he normally sees. He then went on about how I hit all the main issues, had a brilliant setup, and how I obviously have the knack for this kind of stuff. He told me that I just set the standards bar a lot higher than he expected.
Holy shit. That made my day so much that I was actually dancing for the rest of this last week. It still makes me giddy when I think of it. ...I just need to play it cool and not get a big head about all of this attention he gave me.
Women
Hm. On Thursday night I did something classy and made out with this drunk girl. Yeah, I know. Very nice, right? I felt like a schmuck especially since I feel like she would have let me go pretty far with her. She's a nice enough girl but she kissed like an octopus. Seriously, you know it isn't a good make-out when you have to fucking wipe your face with a towel afterward. That's just gross.
I've been flirting with this one girl who comes over to HC a lot and I think she has been flirting back. Instead of totally fucking up my mojo, I'm going to just flirt and play it cool. I'm not even going to write her name here because it could very well be bad luck. I'll leave it at this: I'm crushin' pretty hard for this one.
Oh. Also, I flashed Erin today by accident and it was one of the most awkward things ever. I think we've cemented things to be just friendship and I really like that. She's cool and I feel like things between us are best defined as friends. Yay!
Good Will
I have been experimenting with drug culture lately. No, I didn't do anything crazy... Ish. I just got creative and made myself a bong out of a giant flower vase / tea pot object that I found at a thrift shop. It worked amazingly well and last night ended up being an odd blur that I actually remembered. Fun stuff!
...I also made up my mind: I'm going to start a tiny grow op. I want to try and grow just one or two small plants for myself so that I don't have to spend cash buying. Also, it will make a good story. I have the perfect place to grow it too and now all I have to do is get the seeds and buy a lamp and then I'll be all set. It's a huge gamble because if I got caught I'd get in trouble with the law. However, I'm not going to let some kind of fear of retribution keep me from having some harmless fun at botony.
DAMN!
Shit, I look good. I know, I know I shouldn't be saying that stuff but today I looked up in the mirror and I kinda stared. I've been getting some muscle definition in my chest and arms lately and I'm currently in okay shape. Between that and dressing snazzy with black collared shirts and good looking gear, I feel full of pep and energy. I seriously feel so confident walking down the street that I haven't lowered my eyes or nervously shuffled around other people at all. In fact, I sometimes feel like strutting a bit.
