HELOOOOOOOOO!






Everyone, I'd like to introduce you to what happens when someone goes to Studio 58. I'm finally fed up with not sharing stuff that's happened, that I am making time to make this post. I really should be working on my acting project due tomorrow, or on my next two play projects due in 2 weeks, or on the english essay due on monday... but that's stuff is obsolete compared to the way I feel about this school. I want to hug it, and love it, and make it hot chocolate and sit with it by the fire. I'm actually excited every morning to go to school, I learn so much every day. Let's take a couple weeks back. The standard day starts at 5:30am. I wake up. At 6:45 I'm at the bus stop, and at 8:30 I start english. At 9:30, more likely than not, is acting class, then we have physical theatre, movement, voice and on wednesdays, Choir. We had crew calls, which are basically calls to help out with the play. I'm on costume crew, and we're responisble for making sure the actors aren't naked. I had to sew and stuff. On those days, I'd be at school till 9, 9:30. Here are some pics of my crew.
Today it took me two hours to get home. So even though i ended at 3:15, I got home at 6. But I am not complaining at ALL. I love this school. Okay, last week, I was really feeling pressure. The teachers are so direct with their criticism, and it is for my own benefit, and I can deal with it, but after I haven't gotten a single positive response for a while, I got kinda desparate. I finally said, whatevs', let's kick it into high gear. See, I didnt even feel like I had a chance to show my true abilities and talents in class, so I was feeling down, because I didn't feel my potential was being realised, blah blah blag. So. this week, has been amazing. I'm finally showing my true colors, and making people laugh again. I even got my teacher to say "good". I KNOW! :D But more than that was the fact that I felt satisfied with something that I did, and fear wasn't ruling me in class. Tomorrow, we've got a presentation of a precious character. And I'm presenting Darek, who, some of you may remember, is my boss. I'm completely excited about this, and can't wait to call myself dum-dum. Things are going great. Movement class requires a quite elaborate getup, but the reward is stretches that are making me a foot taller and amazing yoga for an hour and a half a day. In voice, we all trip out at these amazing things we're learning, like this video.



So, although I miss getting to see everyone, and I'm missing a special person who lives kinda far away who's hungry for gelato right now and who's name MIGHT be Christine. Throughout those things, I am having the time of my life. I honestly see myself getting through this school, although times are tough. And I realised a week ago that I'm going to do whatever it takes for this dream to be a reality. I love you all, and just to prove it, you guys are lucky enough for me to post a gorgeous picture of what I wear to movement every day.

I gots me some stuff on Boxing day





3 am- wake up

3:20- stop hitting the snooze button

3:23- Paul showes up. I make sandwiches, we get outta there.

3:30- We arrive at Future shop, where we're located -with nate- about 100 meters down the line. not too shabby. I learn that they've been there since 1am. Wow.

4:00- Nate and Paul retire to a romantic nap in the subaru. I finish my hot chocolate, and Brian shows up. Apparently he'd been working for 2 hours.

4:14- I have hillarious conversations with our new friends who are sharing their chairs with us, Jeff and his friend.. uh... not Jeff?

5:00- Beat the first world boss on super mario advance. Damn that was hard!

5:16 ish - Mad panic time as people start getting up, moving towards the doors, and I warn Nate and Paul to get ready. They weren't ready because they opened the doors a minute later. There were people lined up all the way to the bay! We rush in, they let us loose in waves! I gimbled with my broken toe as fast as I could after Paul and Brian, as Nate held back with me. Paul grabbed two Toshiba HD DVD players JUST in time. There was ONE left right after he picked mine and his up, and that was snatched up as we watched. SO insane in future shop! As it should've been. The DVD player we got was marked down 300 big ones! we paid $100!! AND it comes with 300 and bourne identity in th box, and you can mail in for 5 more hd dvd's! Thank you Paul for letting me know about this!

I also got myself a bluetooth headset, which I'm pretty sure I'm gonna keep. It'll help me with Pizza deliveries and I can use it with my PS3. I got Transformers on HD, which I just had to have, and I got Zelda for my DS for 20 buckaroos, as well as... actually.. that was it. We headed over to my house after Paul HAD to check out Best buy, where we got all comfy and sleepy. My mom made us the most memorable breakfast I've ever had, and Paul is beginning to understand why I chose my house for my favorite place to eat. SUCH good food this morning. Scrambled and eggs, sandwiches with 2 choices of cheese, Polish sausages, and orange slices, topped off by juice. I love my mom. Then we started watching a part of transformers, as Paul left Nate and Brian here at my house. The're still asleep. At 9 oclock, after the best boxing day ever, I clocked out.

I was talking with much enthusiasm about the new Star Wars game.. and my phone rang. My ringtone is Star Wars.

Gridlock in a beautiful world

CHRISTINE IS BACK! :D For a while, anyways. I can't control my happiness! I spent the day picking her up and hugging her torso. After changing my oil and being late, that is. I'm always late. I was sitting in gridlock on the way to her house, and I realised how everyone around had something to do. Everyone seemed unaware of eachother, that noone else was on the planet, or that everyone else was a lesser person. I kind of panicked, thinking how we, as people, go through life being shut off and afraid of other people. Sure, we can't be friends with everyone, but it hurts to think of how we are all humans, and can't all respect eachother and live in a perfect world. DAMMIT, why can't we be perfect!? "If everybody looked the same..." that song has a good message.
I keep realising that, even though my life may not be perfect, it sure is perfect for me. I'm so happy with my life, the trials and tribulations in it. I need to be reminded that life is like a slurpee. The good times gotta be cherished, or you'll be disappointed in the end. All ranting aside, I'm happy with my life. Although I may not become famous or a meaningful person in the world, I know that I have people who are extremely meaningful in my life.

So, onto the day. I had a hotdog. Then I went to pick Christine up. It's so good to have her home! ARG! :D We stayed at my house for dinner where we had some awesome soup/cheese. We watched some HILLARIOUS Jeff Dundam,
and proceeded THAT with some Gelato from Esq... from a place that Christine and I love to visit.
We moseyed on to Improv at Gallagher's, a place I haven't been in months, I am ashamed to admit. It was better than I remember it. We also had some beer at the pub, which I can't remember the name of, but we sure had it, I promise! Scout's honor! After improv, was the much anticipated I am Legend, a movie I had high hopes for. Hopes that were satisfied again and again. Will Smith will adopt me and teach me how to act. That's just the way it's gonna be. The only other movies that have impacted me this much are Patch Adams, Star wars (yes, actually), and the Land before time (I was young, okay!). But this one was different. My heart sank to the floor from fear, suspense, and sadness so many times that I had to get a harpoon to keep it in it's place. It was more spontaneous than Michael Jackson if he had ADD. "Today I wanna be white. No, spam." An amazing movie. If you haven't watched it, then shame on you. Shame. Off to the Romeins, and soon, sleep. UMOTD:

Wow. Dudes, look at youtube now.


Hokay, so I know I haven't posted in forever and a half, but that's 'cause I'm busy taking up all the time I have of freedom right now to hang out with my friends, and be COMPLETELY lazy as much as I can. ANYWAYS, Nikolai and I are sitting here playing wow, at 4 in the morning, NOT tired at all, and we discovered that youtube just took steroids. But without the ball shrinkage, Youtube is now improved. Just watch a video in full screen, and you'll notice the button beside the play/pause button will change!! HOLY CRAP, EH!? so click it, and don't be scared. It feels good, don't worry. Videos that relate to your current one pop up in little bubble form! What's scary, is that Nikolai and I were watching videos about an hour ago, and the option didn't exist! that means we're Pioneers of youtube awesomeness! We just crapped ourselves! it HERTZ! I'm sure PAUL doesn't even know about this!!! MUAHAHA! so seriously, go check it out. Now. Here's a video, just for kicks.

"The shield generator is down! Commence attack!"

We woke up at 1:04pm today. I figure that's our "sleep bank". We're gonna now take from that for the next week. In which we will go crazy. Like today. I mean it's 2:26 am and I'm blogging. Mostly because I'm talking to Nate right now about how you read magna from right to left. So today we went to the Edmonton Science world, because I refuse to call it by it's "real" name I got to drive Nate's car. We met up with Alby, the lady who Paul was corresponding with about our trip. She's really cool, and a bit of a geek too, so it helps. We both felt like celebrities when we were there, because everyone knew us. There was even a picture of us up in lobby! They had something that was way cooler than anything I could've imagined. They had a giant LEGO Star Wars exhibit, where a group called the Northern Alberta Lego Users Group had, I'm sure for Paul' and my amusement only, set up scenes from star wars, recreated totally from lego! Christine, Adrienn: These won't have much significance for you, but we'll take care of those when we watch star wars. Besides... they're cool! It's lego, c'mon! Aaaaand... I managed to break one of the models. HOWEVER, with my absolute pwnage lego skills (and using the force), I was able to put the custom built satellite back together perfectly. AND I figured that It's a good thing I did so. I actually helped the rebels destroy the death star, because I knocked out the shield generator! So it was a good thing! I can't believe it, though. They invite us over here, FLY us out,even, let me go behind the fence to take pictures, and I thank them by breaking down their exhibit. Great. Anyways.. then we went into the giant thunderdome theatre where we watched Return of the Jedi!!!! On a giganticus screen! That was after eating an awesome meal at the swiss Chalet, of course. I love being with Nate again!

Brian is the king of kings

And In Polish:
Brian jest szeẃ wrzystkich szeẃoẃ.

Brian's Birthday today. Give him 19 solid ones, or buy him a drink. It's a day to celebrate. We played poker at Denny's, where Brian cleaned us out, and we had some good burgers.

Going for a walk with the family. It was good to chill with them a while.

Prepare to get your brain pwned.



Portal will blow your mind. Like, you will play this game, and it will actually make your grey matter ooze out of your ears in amazement, and out of your mouth as you drool at it's uber awesomeness. Playing this game is something spectacular. They even manage to make an STD joke! Your guide makes constant jokes and jests at your survival, and its presentation is simple, and straight to the point. Moreover, it's a concept that just rocks.

Number 1 in the frickin world

A lot of practice yields this. The game: DiRT. The pWnage: Greg. The track: Monte Di Ii Conchi B. Try and beat me. I'm on to other tracks. If I keep this time for a week, Chris owes me 15 bucks. And don't forget it.

19 years later...

That was an awesome Birthday. Thanks, guys, for making it super special. Like super duper special. If one of you was missing, it wouldn't have been the same, and some of you were missed, so it wasn't as awesome as it could've been (cough* cough* Esquires). I love soup, and I love you guys.
Dinner with the folks: Awesome
Improv with my friends & family: Awesome
After Improv at the pub with my friends: Awesome
Life: Awesome.

The 12 cases of beer is just Jessy and I buying beer for Pauls surprise birthday, which he was totally amazed by, by the way.

UMOTD:
My whole day ruled.
