First Entry of 2010....whoops

Feb 19, 2010 15:04

Remember like two months ago when I said I would start writing in this thing more frequently? Heh. My bad. Life has been interesting to say the least.

At this very moment I should be working on my paper for Brit Lit. It's an analysis of William Wordsworth's "Ode: Intimations of Immortality". Actually a very intriguing poem that is quite enjoyable. If you're reading this you should probably check it out (cough Difran).

Life is slow all while moving at a breakneck pace. It's an odd sensation. I can manage to think both "I'm only 6 weeks into the semester?!" and "I'm already 6 weeks into the semester?!" at the same time. Honestly I do not enjoy any of my classes that much this semester so I am counting down the time for it to be over. I'm taking 20th Century Art History, Brit Lit (Romantics through 20th century), LAS (the bane of any BW student's existence), stupid Math (last one of my life!), a class on Orson Welles, and after spring break I'll be starting Intro to Drama.

As much as I don't like the idea of it, school truly is the number one thing on my mind at most times. My primary focus is to get this degree. I'm still double majoring in Film and English and I'm still content with it.

I want to quit my job. I want something else. Cinemark just isn't doing it for me anymore. I've been there 2.75 years and I still only make 7.70 an hour. Pathetic. I have no idea where else to find a job though. Harumph.

I'm one of the alumni in Berea Goes Broadway this year. For the second time in my life signing Sit Down You're Rockin' the Boat in front of a live audience. I'm enjoying it. Like...a shit ton. I miss being on stage. I forgot what it feels like to perform in front of people. The sound of the applause washing over me like a wave is one of the greatest feelings I've ever experienced and I can't believe it's been 3 years since I've done anything. In a perfect world I would like to do theater again somewhere....something. There is nothing like entertaining.

I really should get on this paper. I mean...I have it all outlined...which makes writing it the easy part....but still...procrastination seems to be my one and only way of life.

Socially, things are changing more rapidly than ever. I'm making commitments where I normally would not and I'm basing several decisions on impulse and just trying to go with the flow. I've opened myself up emotionally more than I have in years...a process which truly made me realized how guarded I've become throughout the past 3 years. On top of that I'm really trying to do some self exploring...and through that realizing how really neurotic and paranoid I am about life in general. It's just something that can't be helped. Interesting.

As of now I have two more performances left...and I must finish this Brit Lit paper by tomorrow. Then I have a 6 page LAS paper due Tuesday that I haven't even begun thinking about yet. It's going to be a hectic two weeks before Spring Break. Cheers.
