Hey Leaf-do!
Here's the LJ update I prizomised you:
Right Now I'm at UFSGCS Computer number 4. I'm directly underneath a flourescent light. :P :). I have four stories to read in my narration and description class. In that class I have to write 3 short stories.
Doesn't sound to hard, right? That is until you factor in my creative perfectionism. Let me put it this way: I've re-written this sentence three times already. Nothing else in my life has to be perfect. Everything can fall apart. (...) But if this damn story is not the shit and isn't the best thing I've ever written (and is not the best thing you've ever read) than I have to start over and try again. So I'm fucked.
Anyways. I'm swearing off Ice cream until I manage to lose some weight (which I haven't).
My story? The story I'm supposed to be writting right now is about a musician and his collaborator/producer type who have long since split ways and now both of them make music than suck. So the producer tries to get back together with the slightly more successful musician for an album to benefit the homeless.
SPOILER: The musician turns him down and the producer goes back to where the two of them first met: The NYC subway. A homeless man walks on to the train singing the same song that made both him and the musician famous... He gets homeless people to record an album for the homeless and it sells multi-millions and gives the carrer of the producer a boost...
I don't know if all of that can really fit into the story but yeah... |

I'm scared right now. My heart is pumping. I don't think I want to go to classes tomarrow. I don't think I want to do anything tomarrow. I don't think I should have stayed here in Tampa this summer to take these damn classes. I don't think I should have tried journalism as a double major. I don't know if I really want to go through all of these classes. I don't know if I can look any body in that class in the eye.. I don't know that if I take it next semester I won't get this asshole teacher again. |

Okay, now I'm really back. This week has been lovely for the most part.
There's been one major problem. I finally got around to ordering my new AC Adaptor online and I put it on 2nd day delivery. Which is true. They just waited till yesterday to ship it. I've been worried that I might have had it sent to the wrong Magnolia box. I never remember which one it is by number I just know what it is by sight really. Dell had the last box I had it shipped to and thre was no reason to believethat the last time I had to order a cord was last year, but there just felt like there was something not right. Like three days after the date expected going by and still no power cord. Loverly. But simple fact was... they HADN'T shipped it.
I think I'll stop here. |

They keep using this word "unipolar". I'm having a hard time envisioning a unipolar world. I keep getting pictures in my head of a flat earth. |

Once, I saw a graphic on an arnrcho-capitalist website I was curious in looking at and it had a graphic that had nine Clintons and one Reagan. It said "There are nine democrats to republican teaching on college campuses. Encourage Academic Diversity."
Trust me folks. Nine Clintons and one Reagan IS academic diversity.
Hell, ten ACTUAL Bill Clintons would be a diversity of opinion, too. |

Okay. I'm at the library turning in books. On the way, I went to the mailbox and I found a copy of a zine I had nearly forgotten I had ordered. Yes, it took that long but a copy of Mediageek arrived in my box. I haven't flipped page one of this thing, but it's supposed to have a big article by Jon Anderson of DIYmedia.net in here where I believe it was supposed to be a listing of every major pirate radio station he knew of at the time. Of course, now it probably more of a snapshot but an interesting one.
So, I don't even know if I've really talked about my one man show. But, I need to edit it all together and start memorizing and shizznit. Which brings me to my current hell. I'm in three shows. One of them opens on the seventh and runs a shitload of shows and closes on the 17th. That's fine I've done that before... The problem? The other show I am in starts on the 18th. So it's not like some crazy sitcom where the guy is in two different shows at the same time only.... IT S. It's EXACTLY LIKE THAT. I refuse to do a tech reharsal (the bane of an actors existance) and then run out right afterwards and do another show. I refuse it is not going to happen. And THEN I'm in my one-man show which I have to do on the 14th.
I was told this yesterday by the guy who wrote the show my (possibly former) friend Ray Taylor... who...
My reluctance to leave the show have risen alot for seperate reasons.
#1. This is a show that is technically being done outside of college and I need to do something like this.
#2. He's my friend.
#3. He wrote this friggin' part for me. Deny it all he wants, these words are mine practicaly.
But the fact that the guy most conscious of my problems would be such an asshole and schedule it for the day after another show gets out. He said he might want to push the opening two days later.
What else? I haven't come right out and said it but... The 18th is a Monday. I cant imagine doing a show on a Monday. Bah! I am openly questioning this man's intelligence for doing that.
This post is over. |

It took 10:29 for my lappy to get to the point where there was a mouse cursor on the screen. It was so long that I wondered if it was actually supposed to start up. I thin I was slightly better off with it not being fixed.
12:49 Icons appear...
13:49 before I can click on anything.
I'd like to thank Academic computing for fixing my paperweight. |

His antipathy to the UN does not bother me. I'm not the biggest fan of anything slightly resembling a world government. But when he says "If I were redoing the Security Council today, I'd have one permanent member because that's the real reflection of the distribution of power in the world."

All I wanna do right now is write. But I gotta go to rehearsal.... I've waited all spring break for this moment to hit me. A massive desire to write, write, write. But I gotta go. |

So.
I am a few hours away from finally entering my Spring Break. And I will possibly be doing so with a night of Anime at Oushi Anime. It's my anime club here on campus. We watch Naruto, Scrapped Princess and GENISHEN! (the society for the study of modern visual culture)
and other awesome anime goodness. and yes, that was the other anime's full title. Alas, with all of the crap I've been through lately I feel I should be off now and that I have paid WAY too much for this time off.
I have one more rehearsal. I, also, might have to be dealing with one stage manager who might [read:will] be on my case when I get there. I friggen want out now! Grumble Grumble.
I need to write a few papers. I need to finish writing a play. I need to unvirus my compy. and other blah things. Oh yeah, memorize my role in one of the three plays I'm in.
I burst into tears last night yelling at my dad. |

Okay, I just took my Contemporary Performance Theory Test and I did not bomb it. I stillhave another test to take today that I feel I have the capacity to bomb, but I am not afraid of it. Yesterday Anthony came up to me and said "We thought you had died!" No, I've not died. Fortunately. I have two weeks roughly to get my life back in good working order and I think that will require going to the library and traking this test as soon as I can.
Oh yeah, thankies.
Ps. I just had three coffee beans and I'm allready buzzed, what does that mean? |

I haven't felt like being emo on my blog lately, so I won't, but rest assured I've been down for quite some time now. I will not moan about it. With everything going on right now. I have decided that it might be best for me to extend this break from LJ for an undetermined amount of time. It might be a few days might be three weeks. I don't know. This is less about quitting LJ as it is telling you I need to get my life back on track and that will mean facing down a few of my friends in a way I don't know if I can handle. I don't wanna bring that up here.
Another reason for not posting, as silly as this may sound (I don't know, depression makes you unable to know what is rational anymore.) I haven't wanted to whine about my own depression with what Tracy has gone through lately. She needs LJ love more than I do right now. (Yeah, that sounds really silly.)
So there.
End of line. |

I had way, way to much caffine and I just went off on a writing tangent, and I barely ever lost steam until I came to a place to stop. This is shit I've been thinking aboUT way way too much and so I'm glad I got it out muh system.
I don't wanna continue moving my life along in this direction.
People are known to say "Simplify, Simplify." and there are many who believe that as well, who believe in organization and other things of that nature. You cannot simplify a life. You will only end up trying to reorganize choas. You cannot simplify a chpoatic life, you can only start from scratch and try again to live simply.
You must live without your fears. You must get outside of your head through means legal or illegal. You mustbreak the law. Ever now and then you must stand up to your fears. (For me, those last two are totally one and the same.) I am scared to death of cops. I will go far out of the way to avoid being looked at by a cop. Break any rule you can find every now and then to make sure you know that you can actually do this. Break rules both written and unwritten. Take your goddamn shoes off right now. Smell your feet. Your feet are beautiful. Take your computer outside. Get some sun. You know, sunburns are not a good enough reason to stay indoors. Do you have a back porch? Yeah, that'll do. Get some sun. Sunlight has been proven to make you fucking blissfully happy. So, get some sun.
Curse words. Not just is the idea of a fucking "bad word" fucking idiotic, but the "bad words" are the words we use for our emotional release. They don't want us to remember that we aren't allways governed by their logic, which sometimes make no sense. We are both. We must move out of our heads and go outside. We must say "fuck" Say "Fuck" Say any word you wish, I don't care.
We stopped going to church, but when we did we lost something that connected us to our communities. We must get bacck to real face-to-face community. We stopped listening to the preacher. Now we don't listen to each other. Now the words are scripted and on a five second delay. The words are not our own. We need to hear people speak from heart and soul. I wanna hear people speak. To go back to my fear of the fuzz... every word they say hyas been scripted. Try it next time. You all ready know what they are going to say so beat them to it. "Do you know why I pulled you over?" "No, do you?" |

I've had m fair share of depression lately. Hopefully this last "incident" will be it for a while.
I JUST GOT ACCUSE OF STEALING FROM THE LIBRARY!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
Wanna know how THIS fucking shit occured? So I had a book and movie out on my workstation. I get up to go somewhere else and I put the two into my bag to move it all. WAIT, IT GETS BETTER! I leave the Sixth floor and the alarms go off. So I look through my bad and I see the book. So she passes me the book to tun in downstairs. NO ALARM GOES OFF AS I GO BACK THROUGH THE SENSORS. These are the sensors that are there to stop people from bringing the tapes off of the sith floor. AND IT DOESN'T GO OFF AGAIN. This could have been a funny little "Kenny's a doofus" story. That everybody could have lol'ed at. But they took my information and are forwarding this "security incident" to the wonderful people in Judical Services. MOTHERFUCKER, IMABOUT TO THROW A BRICK. AT SOMEBODY. MAYBE THEIR FREAKING FACE. |

So I got myself a user name at the evil Satanic Organization know to many as Wikipedia. Wikipedia is the single largest group of total assholes on the face of the planet. The Republican Party does not have the sheer numbers or higher percentage of assholes that Wikipedia does. So I thought "Gee, maybe I might want to create a screen name an try to become a part of this..." What the fuck was I thinking?
So, I start by creating a little place holder article for "Mbanna Kantako" with every intention of creating a fuller article. I go over to the "Pirate Radio" article and ask people to help me out and before I know it I am berated for creating this "sub-sub-stub" by a guy who doesn't even think Mbanna is worth writing about in the first place. He then proceeds to write my entire article for me and do it badly, saying he's an anarchist just because he called his station "Black Liberation Radio" and "If he's not an anrchist than WHO'S he trying to liberate?" Other portions of the article are unreadable and just stupid and I think he's holding the whole thing hostage under his false assumptions.
I swear to God he said something about "Tavis Smiley isn't crying to be liberated."
For those of you who don't know: Mbanna Kantako is the the founder of Human Rights Radio, a micro-power radio station in IL and is considered by many to be the forefather of the Microradio movement. |
