An Update? From Me? It's More Likely Than You Think!
I am almost in awe of how long I have managed to go without updating. I was finally spurred into action by my acquisition of two shiny new icons. Both are of Ray Person from Generation Kill! If you haven't watched GK, do so immediately plzkthx. It's an amazing HBO miniseries about the invasion of Iraq (I know, and yet) filled with humor and poignant moments. Very Heller-esque. Random things:
- I finished that story I mentioned in my last entry! Ended up around 33k. Achievement of the year, easily.
- I also wrote a decent amount of poetry, including a poem to Sami Khedira written in terza rima! I bet no one else alive can say that lol. Good times.
- I cannot even talk about soccer/football. Too much drama. But some things I will never forget.
- Managed to fulfill my law school advanced writing credit with a fictional story about justice in a fairy land. No joke. I'm just that awesome/good at making the system work for me.
- I apparently have a job this summer doing research for a prof. If he ever e-mails me back and gives me a concrete task, I'll get started on that.
- I bought Community season one on DVD and basically inhaled it. So good! And I don't usually like sitcoms! I usually avoid them so hard and yet this one is awesome. I just love all the characters and their little family. :) Plus the show is basically on crack and we all know that I love cracked-out stuff.
- I was thinking of skipping So You Think You Can Dance? this season but then I watched an audition ep and fell in love with a dancer. His name is Jess and he is a baby broadway dancer like a cross between a 30s actor/dancer and a young Max Casella. He could be a newsie lol, so I obviously love him. My family is already sick of my fangirling. A judge this week said he was like a young Jimmy Cagney! And Jess knew what that meant! It was meant to be, you guys.
- I'm doing gymnastics again! Had my first class last night and I am super sore haha. But it was pretty sweet. I can still do a cartwheel on beam! And a wendi dismount. And a front handspring on the floor, and a punch front into the pit. I look forward to re-acquiring more skills as my body adjusts and I regain some fitness, strength, and flexibility. It's just so weird/nice being in a gym again after so long.
Otherwise life keeps on keepin' on. I've seen some fun movies and listened to some good music. Trying to be as awesome as possible and live my life like a boss. As Ray is saying in my icon: we pimpin'.
