Gosh... it's been a while, hasn't it?

Hi kids, it's that time of year again! That's right, a Greg ramble! Where to begin?...

Actually, there's not much to really ramble about. I'll get through the obvious stuff first. Family is taking a bit of an upswing. Had some mom trouble for a while, but our relationship is tentatively recovering. Good. What else?... movie is almost finished, at least as far as filming.

Oh yeah. Just broke up with Rachel, unfortunately. Not exactly great as break-ups go, but certainly not my worst. I guess what happened was we got sick of not seeing each other, and of course she's playing host to an attractive exchange student her age, which only heightens the fact that she never sees me, so, that frustration expressed itself in every facet of conversation except where it needed to. Yet another relationship attributable to poor communication. Remember, kids, always talk about problems, even if it's awkward.

But alas, I'm actually glad it's over. Sure, I liked her, but it was awfully stressful never seeing someone but trying to maintain a relationship. It will be cool going into senior year single, as there are many opportunities ahead of me for a bit of closer-to-home . And of course, guiltless on-screen romance. (if you don't know what I mean, go to www.fourthbreeze.official.ws for details.)

And it's nice to have finally had a normal relationship, with normal problems! It's so cool to look back and say, this went the way it does in real life, instead of the twisted realm of Gregland which always seems to involve unwise or slightly crazy people! This was a normal, healthy relationship and it died peacefully, as they should.

Now that I've beaten that horse to , let's talk about something else. I am auditioning for Meet Me In St. Louis, a musical at school. Might be fun. In fact, it will be fun, because I will make lots of new friends, which I am doing right now at drivers ed. Of course, everyone knows how wary actors are of newcomers, but hey, to know me is to love me. I'll be fine.

And school is starting soon! Photography, advertising, Theatre Management, Acting, etc. Cool classes. In fact, this discussion is what proompted my recent breakup. I was bragging and pointing out that I don't have to take things like 'algebra' and 'biology' anymore, that I can learn what I want to use someday, at last, and that set her off. "You criticize my subjects just because yours are more fun-sounding!" etc etc maybe I took it too far but whatever. Not exactly psychological trauma here, just a plain old argument. A breath of fresh air. Damn it, I'm rambling.

Had to happen sooner or later. But that seems to be the phrase of the day, doesn't it? I'll see you when I see you!

Peace and Love, somewhere off in the distance,
Greg
