[03 Apr 2003|09:04am] [ mood | bouncy ] [ music | damage- Plumb ] Its been a looooooong day, And I'm covered in paper mache. yea. i rhymed! yeah ok, so SORRY to all about the April Fools pranks,,,cher....i had you going! but seriously...me? a lesbian? not as long as hot men like Brad and Ben are alive. Not a Chance!! but all kidding aside....today i worked with REALLY underprivileged middle schoolers in the ghetto and taught them to write plays!!! yeah!! in like an hour! yeah! so i had LaTonya, Laquinta AKA Sady (pronounced Shaw-tay....like a slang form of "shorty"...think about that) and Abraham....yes they were all black, and no they didnt want to take instruction from a little white college girl about how to "make choices". SO amanda used her humor and wonderful imitation skills and was telling them to write about ANY choice they want and said "well....Tupac CHOSE to fake his death then come back to make million dollar records to keep profits.." AND OFF WE WENT....It was AMAZING!! These kids had so much to say and think about and it was totally gratifying....yes....scary A LOT at first and throughout but we all did a good job and it was wonderful!! on the Paper Mache note....we just built our set for Bald Soprano, i cant BELIEVE we open in two days!! alas, my hair will not be black....keepin it real, so to speak, but its all gonna look awesome and be SO SCARY!! and yet so funny! our publicity photos are just rockin and although im runnin on a half-tank, its aaaaall good! Got my Music school audition in two weeks.....ay-yi-yi THANKS TO ALL FOR WONDERFUL COMMENTS THE OTHER DAY!! YOU ALL ARE BEEEEAUTIFUL PEOPLE!! MUAH!! i really did feel like poo but now im rejuvinated!! yes!! go life!! I did a little prayin and the weather is beautiful!! OH and I, yes MOI, simply said in my nasty boring "indians in the US" class, "We are going outside for class today!!"" and my professor looked and without skipping a beat said "OKAY!" so we had a discussion out on Landis Green!! HAHAH!!! Amanda has POWER YES SHE DOES!! this was totally courtesy of my ever proud roomie, Katie, who pulled a successful class transfer maneuver earlier in the year, and so i dared and WON! Astronomy is still poo but i think i did decent on the test.....famous last words..... still no word from SMT...gettin nervous....(bites nails, then realizes she doesnt bite her nails...) I have acting tomorrow with sweet boy....saw him today and flirted a tad....JUST a tad ;) its ALMOST summer and ALMOST the weekend and its ALMOST time to pass out to dreamland so GNIGHT ALL! OH AND ON MY LUNCHTIME TUESDAY!! a winner? ok now, as far as guys are concerned, I am one to get my little hopes up then something always falls through, then great things come out of thin air. well the thin air has seeped from my acting class. a boy....a man....i have befriended through our acting class. the stats: almost twenty-one, an actor, a STRAIGHT actor, originally from New York, quite handsome- dark hair- looks italian- built pretty nicely-honestly, SWEET (just bought me a friendly lunch at the Loop- a not so cheap lunch site), holds down a steady job at Carrabas...soon to be promoted to a manager position, lives alone with a DOG- yes a DOG woo!!, loves football....could this be too good to be true?? And i have seen him progress in our acting class from a shy guy with potential to jumping at volunteer opportunities. Hes level headed and charming, and he really listens whe we chat and really pays attention! The beauty is he didnt come out of thin air necesarily because i know him from acting and right now we are building a little friendship...always promising! SO im not getting hopes up...im busy...its the end of the year...but one can observe and take note right? the weather is back to beeeeautiful outside and i have a SHOW THIS WEEKEND AHHHH.....going black haired tonight....scary....hopefully itll work in the first place....hmmmm....oh well, WE SHALL SEEE!!! fun laughs...good times.... ok well still have lots of work to do, but im in such a mood to get things done now!! who knew!! thank you new boy...for you are a friend now....woo! still waiting on seaside.....dorks.....grrrrrr shant know until tomorrow at the earliest....AHHHHH weres the comment love people???? this is getting depressing all you busy people with lives!!! lets make it happen!! post comment

life is poo at times [30 Mar 2003|12:38am] [ mood | uncomfortable ] [ music | silence...roomie sleeping.... ] SOOOO last night didnt end until 5am and technically i didnt get back to my dorm until 9am- NO it was NOT a walk of shame, but it LOOKED like one. To my surprise, I just ended up at Meagan's and we spend the night, which was lovely, only so i could wake up at 9 for a TEN AM rehearsal aaaaaahhhhh grrrr.. Played football AND raquetball with my BFA boys...good times, burning calories is good. I just am in this weird funk where all i am thinking about is my body and everything wrong with it. Slimfast shakes during the week and then i have miserable failing points to my willpower, like last night ending up at MacDonalds- where i havent been in like a YEAR. So this all leads to me being lonely, but not even confident enough to really look in the mirror anymore, let alone considering trying to find a boy to hook up with or even flirt with. Its so weird. Its never bothered me to this extent before. I think it was spring break and seeing people getting into the summer spirit here and i dont have time to go lay out or even really work out with my schedule, which im not humoring as i should. like right now. I should be studying since im wasting a night i could be out with, but not- im here, typing, like a loser. i admit it. so i just want someone to cuddle with or to appreciate me as a woman, but at the same time, i wouldnt want that because i dont feel worthy as a woman right now...does that make sense? well it does to me and it feels like crap. i wanna crawl in a hole and disappear. I want to just have my schoolwork done so i can work on my performance classes and show but not that crap i dont care about. ugh. life. thats what they say. im trying to be positive because i dont want this to be complaints, but it really just comes down to what we're feeling and im feeling like i want to not be here right now. Uncomfortable is the word. really uncomfortable post comment

juuuuuuuuuuust kidding! [27 Mar 2003|12:25am] [ mood | bouncy ] [ music | papa dont preach in my head... ] ok, i may have seemed a little exagerrate about the NO MORE LIVEJOURNAL stuff but im still gonna post here, im just gonna post at xanga too cuz im a loser and all my friends are there, EXCEPT FOR THE WONDERFUL SHANE AND BLAKE- my CONSISTANT posting friends, everyone else you all need to catch up on the fun! woo! ok well just went kareoke-ing and had a blast and a half, with my lova blake and meagan of course...blake and i have become attached at the hip....if he turns straight we have to get married....its law. i know, weirdo. ok well im tired and have acting tomorrow which i dont want to but i promised a lunch date to this guy in my class and dont wanna be mean....:) love to all! post comment

keeping up [25 Mar 2003|11:10pm] [ mood | grumpy ] [ music | typing of computer lab...yes i know... ] This is a little late, because I've joined the Xanga community because more people love me there, but anyway, I dont want to burn bridges here because there are some great words spoken by my friends here; therefore, posting here will compel me to be able to read the entries of my creative friends.. ANYWAY... WHERE DO I BEGIN??? I guess to explain my crazy fun night is by this equation...Funny awards with PLENTY of celebrities to make fun of PLUS bad chinese food PLUS crazy theatre people EQUALS darn good time! The rest lies in the quotes... To begin, lets take a look at amanda and blakes football venture earlier in the day... BLAKE: "AMANDA AMANDA THROW A PROUD MARY! PROUD MARY!" AMANDA: "its HAIL Mary, you dumb gay man." Lets trot to BEFORE the ceremonies to our opening of Chinese fortunes... BLAKE: "Be practical? What does that mean?" Morgan: "Spank once, not twice!" ON to discussing the terrible loss of body mass among our entertainment role models... Amanda: "RENEE! Eat a carrot. somebody get her something. some oxygen." Meagan: "trust me, i know all the tricks to eating disorders." Blake: "god made me fat, so i ate cotton for a year." Can I describe the amazingness of the show?? Queen Latifah and a ready-to-pop Catherine rockin Broadway style, then loosing to EMINEM! EMINEM!! HA! Adrian Brody, I want to have your children. He made out with Hally Berry, SHUT UP the orchestra, and made everyone cry, again and again... And the little man from the documentary denounced Bush and our country... thanks so much! AAAAnnd of course CHICAGO TAKIN IT HOME BOOO-YAH! HA! "I have an oscar....and a pre-nup..." -Blake as Catherine Zeta Jones' inner voice... Aaaaand on the final catagory... All: "whos gonna win?" Morgan:"it might very well be the peenist!' blake: "and its huuuuuuuuuge!" Kathy Bates is our hero when saying "every time an oscar goes out, an angel gets his wings." Aaaaaaaaaaaaand the finale of OUR night is upon learning of our troupes almost getting caught by the lights of their computers, of which they covered with ponchos.... Blake: "now THATs high tech. ponchos." MAN I LOVE YOU GUYS I AM SO BLESSED WITH SUCH AWESOME FRIENDS! And PS kids, Amanda was just called and offered an internship for this summer that PAYS mucho dinero and I dont know who "recommended" me for it but RANDOM! woo! lets see. ok its time to go to bed! gnight all go chicago! bless our troupes! 1 comment|post comment

done [21 Mar 2003|04:53pm] [ mood | apathetic ] [ music | ghetto booty music ] well folks, my livejournal fun has come to an end....well, not really, but im switching to Xanga cuz more of my friends are on there and they comment on entries and acknowledge the good that i write about and funny things and its more of a gratifying experience over there. so cest la vie! post comment

chillin as much [20 Mar 2003|11:35pm] [ mood | complacent ] [ music | chill tunes ] well, after last night's fiasco, things calmed today with things in perspective. I made a "have you..." list posted in front of me to keep me praying and controlling myself. Have so much to do tomorrow, from performing to rehearsal to touring to movies to aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh....might just nix it all. Today was a sight, i felt like in the middle of Forrest Gump with angry IGNORANT students outside protesting for peace. I know I sound mean and bitter but they dont know whats really going on and all they hear is "war" and think our government is full of killers when thats what were trying to put down. grow up people. face the world. puh-lease! Im really happy with the Bald Soprano and my directing scene, for how much we've rehearsed. Granted, i wish i looked better in the dress i wear but thats comin along soon enough! it shall be done!! I passed a clep test today! yay! not more History for meeeee! soooo happy about this, really i AM! ha! I still am a blessed girl with a family at home that loves and supports me, friends that love and support me, and a God that loves and supports me. i know everything happens for a reason, whether its global war or getting a role here at FSU. Its all for a reason, i swear. Now, off to read about native americans that i dont care about, but im going to try. i keep seeing Stela calling my name from the shelf in front of me and i long to answer her, but no time no time!! aaahhhh! ok gnight 1 comment|post comment

so then [19 Mar 2003|09:14pm] [ mood | embarrassed ] [ music | silence...its eerie ] Blake: "fruit has carbs" Amanda: "so does my LIFE!" mua ha ha ha. Well, kids, we're going to war. I have mixed feelings on this issue. I really dont like the idea of lots of innocent people dying over there, but ya know what? they are already dying over there at the hands of that damn dictator and he needs to be shut down once and for all. Our boys volunteered for what they are doing and I dont think that Iraq is a match for our military anyway so this isnt going to last as long as we think. But thats just my opinion so I've said it. So yeah, Bush messes up a lot in his speeches, but i think this is a decision that wasnt made overnight so i wish everyone would stop acting like it was. Its our safety our boys are out there for and we'll be thankful when we wake up and the rest of our cities are standing and our air is not polluted with gases that they could foist on us. So, thats my piece. Of course, I pray for those going over there and those who will be affected by it directly but this is inevitable. At the same time I have been hit with the same bomb that hits me about myself time and time again....my selfish personality. As much as I am aware of it and whole-heartedly wanting to change, it never pulls through. My roomie has brought my selfish behavior to my attention in the same fashion that I got from my friends at home and of course, my family, who never fails to throw it at me. But alert, i saw this with gratefulness because otherwise i keep on doing my thing not knowing that I am hurting people or at least annoying them to all hell! When are we - i- ever gonna learn? it worries me because of the extremely selfish profession that i am in and especially how ive been acting with all this auditioning and getting roles and stuff lately. i resort to my childhood behavior, which is so damn frustrating and i know it is wrong and i am AWARE which blows things out of proportion! ahhh! ok well i cant vent like this online....i need to talk to someone....shall find someone to listen...maybe God, that works.... god bless america and pray for those in the middle east right now... post comment

spring break [17 Mar 2003|04:07pm] [ mood | calm ] [ music | sex in the city ] well, im back. what a break. i mean, nothing evolutionary or crazy happened, but I got to hang with people that truly made me happy. I regained a friendship I had lost through a relationship and it feels so good and natural to have it back. It was meant to be. Everything DOES happen for a reason. I've been kind of separated from the war lately, and its only hitting me now after my aunts attempt to slap my faith succeeded. Shes good at getting her point across, even when i can read it coming. Nevertheless, i have a lot to do, but now the stamina to do it. I sat down to read today and was cool with it. I can memorize lines without procrastinating! its a new me! I've realized that i dont need a BFA to work on my body or worry about my acting...i can do that on my own with the stress all in its own. I love just being able to take charge of my schedule. now to decide about double majoring....and find a straight boy to cuddle with. thats all i want right now. really. post comment

[14 Mar 2003|09:06pm] [ mood | tired ] [ music | silence of fatigue ] ok, so im sitting here with my lovely cousin and his girlfriend standing over my shoulder while i purge in jealousy after seeing her pictures from the Tim McGraw concert cuz she was close enough to see his nose hairs. or as clint would say...
