I'm Still Alive!!

So, I have to leave for a jam-packed Monday in approximately 20 minutes. That's enough time to write a blog entry, right? Sure... why not!

Sometimes I am sure people wonder why I go home so much. Yes, my boyfriend lives back home, and I enjoy spending time with him. Yes, I am really close to my mom, and I like to see her. Yes, I have a lot of obligations to the theatre back home. Most of all, though, I think I go home because home is the one place I can just stop running around like a crazy person and stressing about all the things I have to do. Honestly, when I go home, I spend a good portion of my time just laying in bed watching TV, which is something I don't have the luxury of doing here, even on the weekends. And honestly, I don't think there's anything wrong with going home to escape because I know I can relax there and let my mommy take care of me and not worry about my homework or whether or not I'll have time to eat between commitments.

Speaking of eating... I need to go back up some food incase I don't get to come home before rehearsal.

This blog was pretty much useless. Oh well...

Love Monologue from the movie Stardust

Yvaine: You know when I said I knew little about love? That wasn't true. I know a lot about love. I've seen it; I've seen centuries and centuries of it. It's the only thing that made watching your world bearable. All the wars, pain, lies, and hate, made me want to turn away and never look down again. But to see the way that mankind loves! I mean you could search the furthest reaches of the universe and never find anything more beautiful. So, yes I know that love is unconditional, but I also know it can be unpredictable, unexpected, uncontrollable, unbearable, and strangely easy to mistake for loathing. And, well, what I'm trying to say, Tristan, is.. I think I love you. My heart it feels like my chest can barely contain it, like it doesn't belong to me anymore; it belongs to you, and if you wanted it, I'd wish for nothing in exchange: no gifts, no goods, no demonstrations of devotion, nothing, but knowing you love me, too. Just your heart in exchange for min...

Why Lent?

Earlier today, I tweeted something about Lent, and then I decided that my impression of this tradition is far too complicated to confine to tweets. Essentially, I do not understand the point of Lent the way that most people choose to celebrate it. I get the basics of it, you give up something for 40 days because Jesus wandered the desert for 40 days while fasting, and you want to show Him your love and devotion by giving up something of yours for Him. Here's the thing, though, after those 40 days, Jesus went out and began His ministry. His 40 days of fasting were in preparation for Him to give His life to the salvation of the world. The idea behind Lent is that if you give up these things that we don't realize we spend so much time doing, you can then devote that time and energy to God through service, prayer, devotional time, etc. Lent is supposed to be a time where you not just make a sacrifice of something you like but where you spend time reestablishing your connection with...

Monologue: Once Upon a Time

Once upon a time, I was the happiest I would ever be, though at the time I didn’t know it. I had three of the best friends in the world: Alex, Lauren, and Kristin. I also had the best boyfriend I could have hoped for. His name was Kevin. Life was pretty magical that last year of high school. I had friends I wanted to be friends with for the rest of my life, I had a boyfriend girls would have given anything for, and it seemed almost certain that life would continue to be incredible for years to come. Life had other plans though, and it changed abruptly when I started college. I broke up with Kevin in a daze of insanity when I first got to college. To this day, I couldn’t tell you exactly why. All I remember is feeling lost and alone, and there was this boy there at school who seemed like he really wanted to be with me. Turned out he didn’t, and Kevin ended up moving on, and I ended up throwing away something wonderful. Kristin… has changed in these first couple of years I’ve bee...
