Dang Friday's should be illegal!

I love Friday! I love Friday! (imagine Brick, from Anchorman saying that) It's funnier now isn't it. I am in a great mood today. I have decided that my feelings about yesterday was just a bad day. I think I want to know how to do things that I haven't learned how to do yet. I'm just getting ahead of myself. I wouldn't expect to be able to build a rocket ship out of scratch would I? I mean I have done that before. I just didn't expect to. I'll tell ya you would be surprized at what you can do when an angry Russian is pointing a gun at your head while he screams and points to rocket ship plans. It was a weird night.

Anyway, I'm starting to move into my apartment today and I have mixed feelings. I think I'm actually gonna miss the dorms. I know, I know. All of you that are reading this that are still in the dorms are going, "Are you crazy man?!" The answer is yes, but that has nothing to do with it. I think I'm going to miss being so close to 70 other people at all times. Other peoples stereos, tv's, computers, late night tennis in the hall, hall dogeball, fried shrimp, boiled shrimp, shrimp scampee, shrimp shiscabob.... Sorry that last part was Forest Gump. The other stuff was true though. I just think that it will probably take me some time to get used to living by myself again. Not to mention how quiet it's gonna be. That might just kill me. I'll probably just sit up in my huge apartment all alone and scream just for the noise. My word of advice to all of the dorm attendees is this, enjoy the cramped, smelly dorms while you can. Savor the noise and the lack of privacy because one unfortunate day a really awesome apartment with a great view might fall into your lap and it will all be over. It'll all be over.

Well I'm gonna leave you with those words to mull over in your mind. I gotta go to class. I'll see all of you later.(because of the tiny cameras I installed in your houses)

Why do I feel this way?

I have to admit that today has been a pretty bad day for me. Today all the confidence I usually have for myself is just gone. I have questioned my career goals and my abilities. I want to be an actor. I haven't really ever questioned my desire to be an actor. I want to be an actor more than anything. Not only do I want to be an actor I want to be a dang good one. I want the ability to create interesting characters and to be able to capture audiences with my imagination. I want to be able to do this soooo bad, but I feel like I just don't have the creativity in me to create such awesome things. It's very frustrating. I tried out for a play and got a very small part. It's about a page worth of dialogue and then my character is gone. I guess I just really want to act and be able to explore creating a character and don't seem to get the chance. I also feel like my professors don't like me. It kind of seems like I'm having a self-esteem problem. This is foreign to me and I don't like it.

Moving on, a good friend of mine is coming into town tommrow night and I'm looking forward to that. I'm looking forward to that like a pastrami on rye with a tinsy bit of hot sauce. Did I mention anything about my new apartment in my last post? I don't know, but I did get a new apartment. It's really cool. It was built in the 1800's and used to be the health club of Max O. Gardner. He was once the governer of North Carolina. I'm gonna enjoy it I think. I keep expecting ghosts though because the place is so old. I'll just keep some harispray and a lighter under my bed. You know that way if I see a ghost I can light the lighter and spray the hairspray into it and have a homemade flamethrower. I don't really know if ghosts are flammable, but at least it will look cool when I do it.

Well I guess that is all I have to say now so I'll see ya later.

You can tell who a person is by their watch.

I was watching this commercial the other day that said, " It's not the clothes you wear. It's not the car you drive. It's not the people you hang out with, that say who you are. It's the watch." I immediately realized that I didn't own a watch and was afraid that I was a nobody. What did I do? I went to Burger King and purchased myself a Darth Vader reversible watch with a hologram backing. What does this say about me? It says that I find anyone who puts their self value in a watch is ridiculous! I did however need a timepiece as I am always late for things. The red and black of the wristband really bring out my eyes, I think.

Moving on. I have a pretty cool PE class. I'm in Alpine Tower Challenges. We get to climb stuff and stuff. I kind of don't want to go today because it is freezing and the class is outside. No worries though. I'll just throw my clothes in the dryer before I go outside. I can't wait until the first day of actual climbing because I picked out this really cool spider-man costume to wear while I climb. I'm gonna see about maybe playing the theme song on a boom box while I climb. What do ya think?

On another note, as of today I am a commuter student to Gardner-Webb University. I found this really cool place in Shelby which is only about 15 minutes away from the school. It was built in the 1800's and has 28 inch thick brick walls. It's this huge, old house that is divided up into apartments. My apartment is huge and it only cost me 350 a month to live there, that includes heat and water. The only bill I have to pay is the electric bill and that's only 35 bucks a month. Needless to say I am really happy with the great find. Well I must go and learn about the proper knots that a climber must know in order to climb. Until next time. See ya.

I got to get there.

Well a new semester has started and I am a fresh start now. I can once again start ignoring this blog. Those who stuble across this path I pity you.
