Glee speaks the truth

Of the little bit of the season finale of GLEE that I saw, the simple was stated, "You know what you need? A hair cut." With a few chops of my locks, I have a whole new mood. I've not been myself, which I don't even know who "myself" is so that's a big signal, and I'm taking things day by day. On the way to the hair dressers I figured, Be bold, a phrase that I once used and my mom had used against me in the past. I told the master with the scissors, do it like the new Quinn. Total spur of the moment is almost like a new start, clean slate, liberating thing I had to do. So far, I feel a bit better.

Don't Stop Believin'

I'm watching my season 1 episodes of GLEE and while hearing Don't Stop Belivin', my anthem, I'm thinking back to the GLEE concert that I went to this past July. I remember feeling all of the energy there and wanting so badly to be in there possition. Singing and dancing, while I'm not good at it, along with acting are my passion and being in that select group is so great that I'll do anything to get to be where they were.
In this first episode, Emma shows Will the video of him at regionals and how happy he was. I don't want to look back and wish what could have been. Typing this with the 5 club members singing "Don't Stop Believin'" is such a "movie moment" and I get that warm little ball of light right in my chest that is all my drive and passion. It runs all throughout my body when I think back to how badly I want to be on that stage with that same energy that you litterally feel like you are out of this world and anything is possible.
This movie, my movie, will never end and it'll go on forever, just Don't Stop Believin'

I'm up for the challenge

School begins on September 1st for us  but compared to every other school in the country it seems, we're late. Some schools like in California have already started and numerous schools start Monday. I personally, being farely bored with summer and seeing as my butt will have ot be surgically removed from my couch and I'm experiencing shortness of breath when I walk into the kitchen, I'm ready to return to school. I know that this'll be one of the toughest years and I have a full plate with my trying to return to my place on the stage, I'm up for the challenge. There are tons of kids who don't get the opportunity to learn and go to school so everybody who complains 24/7 about being there, frankly, there's the door. I am adding things to my plate and am ready to head on back

Checking out schools for the future and watching the ever so epic "Armageddon" and "Golden Girls" as the summer drones on boring day after boring day. I'm currently trying to regain my strength after a 24 hour day spent yoga-ing and hanging out with my friends at a camp out on one of the rainiest weekends this year so all I can do is sleep until noon and watch a series of TV shows.
I'm amazed and tramatized at the same time by these fantastic performances on film and television. I hope that one day I'll be as talented and remembered as Betty White, or as versitile and as famous as Ben Affleck. The acting community is so tightly knit and as I've gathered, the very best thing you can be apart of. You have to put your heart and soul into every character and every role and that is exactly what I intend to do. Nothing is going to stand in my way if I can help it. It's my dream.

Doctor Who

Doctor Who might just be one of the best shows on TV. Through 11 timelords, numerous compainions, and so many creatures, my attention is still kept. I admit that I've only watched Matt Smith as the doctor, but I still love it. To travel through time and space in the TARDIS and go around meeting the most amazing and most influencial people in the history of all planets, now that would be incredible.
What more could you want? It's british sci-fi

I did always picture it that way

So many people have beautiful pictures on the internet. People, scenery, food, it's all gorgeous. I once and still do dream of be a photographer in addition to acting to capture everything amazing, to keep it forever and make it look professional. I'm thinking for my birthday I'll ask for one of those really good Canon cameras to be able take pictures of the beautiful trips I take, people I meet, and food I devour

I always did picture myself with a camera around my neck looking like a Boho-chic photographer New Yorker

"What's up Pastry Punks"

         I always love and envy the people who travel the world on food crawls. They go edge to edge across the world and pig out with the weirdest and the coolest cuisine ever. Screw healthy foods and eating lettus and celery to look "acceptable". Serve up the craziest plates of delicious Ethiopian food and chocolate chip cookies as big as your head, it's all good for the soul. The Buddha was fat and happy, hense the name the Happy Buddha, and he didn't get there by playing it safe. Buddha's are supposed to enlighten others as they have been and be happy. I'm not saying get fat and all you do is eat, but tour the world, experience life, and don't hold back.
         Who's hungry?

New York City

          Revisited New York the other day with one of my best friends. It's a lot easier to navigate once you don't have 50 people singing trying not to get hit by taxi drivers and other New Yorkers trying to get out of the way of your pack. The 9-11 sight still stunned me almost 10 years later. I can still remember that day, I got home and I was so excited to see that my mom was picking me up because she never picked me up. All of the parents were there and when we got home, we were sitting in the kitchen and the TV was on, the two buildings on fire were on the screen as she and my dad told us that our friend was in there but had gotten away from the crashes. I specifically remember her saying with tears in their eyes that they didn't know what's going to happen next and that everybody was afraid. The memorials and Freedom Tower, while I was against them at first, will be an amazing sight and will definitely be a future visiting point.
         Also while touring the city, we stopped into what can only be explained as my future home. The Drama Bookshop, filled with plays, guides, and thousands of helpful pages to actors, directors, screenwriters, and all people of the performing arts, was quite the experience. I couldn't decide what to buy and what perils of wisdom lay beyond the intriguing covers. Finally deciding on a play by a playwright I had recently met and two books to guide me in great directions as I explore acting, it was an amazing little shop.
          Grand Central back home with "Back in the New York Groove" playing in my head and my legs ached from the day as I stared at my slice of Junior's Devil's Food Cheesecake (one of the 5 most unhealthiest things you can get at a restaurant - yum), I was tired. Falling asleep on the couch during yet another screening of Good Will Hunting, it was a good day back in the city.

Coraline

Resting with a stabbing pain around the appendix region while binge watching "Coraline" again, I'm so relaxed. Cartoons or at least cartoon-like films are so interesting the the fact that they are often times over exaggerated or just a world of their own. This movie in particular shows how different worlds exist at once and "it may seem like a dream come true, but you're wrong." However, the shoe could be on the other .... table, which is turned [- Social Network] You just have to open the door to discover what lies beyond (Ironic since one of the first titles of this blog was "Open the Door")

I'll go with disk 3 and a rather ambitious "play all"

Everybody needs some down time, mine just comes with repeated episodes of TV series. "Brain-dead time" as I call it, goes without saying is time to just sit, stare at a screen replaying the same show episodes over and over again until I gradually does off and the stresses go to the back of the mind. Yet as I watch these shows, I revisit the constant thought that I need a project. Perhaps inspiration will strike some time soon, "if not in the way we expect"

Happy August

New month, no posts. I don't have anything new to write about since I have yet again been sitting, more seeping into the couch just watching TV. Everything on has to do with dear old New York. I can't stand not being there but the fact that I get to revist it this weekend is so uplifting. I love it there beyond love and watching shows like Project Runway where they work and live in New York City is pure torcher. Counting down the minutes before I get to go back to my true home and inspiration
