I am going to be BETTER, god dammit. Better at all the things I've stopped being good at or want to be good at for once. It's long past time for a fresh start. This shit is not beyond me. I can totally do this.

I CAN AND WILL BE A BETTER SONIA. Starting right the fuck now.

I've glad you've toned down the drinking. Shit'll kill ya.

The thing is, the vast majority of the time I AM "out making myself a better Sonia" - whether it's by working my ass off, getting some exercise, going to auditions, or spending time with people I love. But once all these things are accomplished, I find it's actually conducive to one's betterness to lay about and smoke of an evening, because (A) it's relaxing on multiple levels and (B) it helps you sleep realllll good. A big fat rest and a good sleep following a hard day's work can be a way of taking good care of yourself - provided, again, that you're being smart about it. Like I said, moderation is key. I never smoke until the day is done and I've gotten some shit accomplished. Otherwise, you'd be right - it'd be hurting rather than helping.

And you're absolutely right - you don't need it to be creative, and anyone who believes that smoking is a necessary function of creativity is FUCKED. Opening up the third eye once in a while can certainly expand the imagination, but creativity has got to come from within your own unstimulated brain. However - that once in a while inspiration HAS produced some VERY creative creativity in me. XD

I still stand by original statement,but you'll just have to prove me wrong by living a better life than I ever could.

Oh hush, you boy thing you. I'm totally down with proving you wrong about smokin' not being epically awesome, but it's up to YOUR ass to make YOUR life as incredible as you want it to be. YOUR actions, YOUR attitude, YOUR potentially win-filled life. Got it? Good.

I heart you.

And believe me, I'm well on my way. Film School is the best decision I've ever made.

But first, I want you to understand that although I may pull us into many debates like this, I will never think less of you simply because your opinion is different than mine. I don't look down on my equals - I try to help them.
