this is where you come in, i know that i can count on you to walk me through

i just got back from the american college theatre festival.
what a fantastic time.
i saw a bunch of shows a bunch of good actors and left remembering why i love theatre and feeling inadequate as an actor.
hanging out was also delightful.
there were a few times where every time anyone around me opened their mouth comedic gold spewed forth. i love it when people are funny.
missing a week of schooling does have it's downfalls.
currently i am attempting to play catch up, but thus far it is not successful.
i really want to play a rock show with ojk and tba.
for some reason neither band has been blessed with the opportunity to rock in front of people.
i realized while on the trip that getting shocked might make me more angry than anything else in this world.
whenever i get shocked for 1/4 of a second i think i am angry enough to kill a something. this passes very quickly and i get back to normal in no time but for that brief moment i get so so angry.
it was a great revelation.
here is the lesson in this. never electrocute me because i might hurt something.

alone i can barely light a match but together we can burn this place down

this is my first post of the new year.
if i could sum up my break in one word it would probably be lazy.
my days have basically consisted of sleeping playing guitar and getting our old home movies transfered to dvd.
that's right i have been occasionally watching some classic home movies. they are pretty entertaining. i decided while watching these home movies that i was pretty dumb as a kid. i think pretty much up until high school i was pretty awkward.
i have been working on playing solos on guitar.
i wrote a few new acoustic songs that will probably never be heard by anyone.
my fingers are starting to move a little faster but i am still not terribly skilled.
i don't make new years resolutions.
i forget them immediately after i say them.
ok i just thought of a resolution: do things that are good to do.
that is something to shoot for.
i am listening to a band called for year strong. if you are reading this and have agreed with me on other musical choices go and listen to this band without hesitation. don't finish reading this, go listen to four year strong.


what did you think? did you like them? i fell in love the second the first note of heroes get remembered, legends never die.
i go back home tomorrow and i don't really want to.
i will have play rehearsals and those should be fun because i like everyone in the cast of the play. also for some reason being at dordt during breaks is very relaxing to me.
