So I auditioned for a band but it wasn't the right mix. First off, the band wasn't even complete! It was only a singer and guitar player. Their songs were really good though and I jammed with the guitarist (who was awesome) but the style wasn't what they were looking for. They said I was the best they've seen though! I told them about my sister and they want to see her haha.
I think I have the idea for my one-woman show and I'm really excited about it. My wonderful boyfriend help me with the idea and I think it's going to be really fun!
I'm obsessed with Lost!! That's alll Ive been doing these past couple weeks is watch it from the beginning! CJ is a big fan and he showed me the pilot and I was hooked! Any fans out there, share the love!!

I'm so excited! I emailed a bunch of people to get put on a list to do stand-up and I'm meeting with a band this weekend! I really hope it all goes well. These guys are really serious about getting into the music industry so if I can make it with them then giddy up! Just working with these guys would be a great experience. They really want to try to get a record deal and such but I know the odds and I'm not holding my breath. If anything I'm doing it for the experience because the rush you get being on stage and creating your own music with a group is just amazing!
If I can go back into stand-up that would be wonderful as well! I just want to get out and do stuff. I want to experience as much as I can while I'm here. Dreaming isn't enough, I have to go out and get it. I'm not sure what's next, the band could end up not liking me, I don't get a call for stand-up, but I tried and I'm going to keep trying. I'm thinking of creating a sketch comedy group again to see how we do. I'm sick of being in this creative rut. I haven't done anything in a while and I need to get out there and explore what I'm capable of.
Here I go...wish me luck...

So much to do, sooo lazy...
Whenever I realize the amount of stuff I want to do and can do, I get very sleepy. It's so much easier to take a nap. Then again, my "naps" last at least a couple hours...eeek! I was so pumped to get some writing done but then my dog was sleeping on my lap. Well, I couldn't just leave him...you know, he was all...sleeping and zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz alright!! I'm guilty of taking the lazy way out!! Oh god!! I'm working out today to make up for the last *cough* three days of not doing anything.
Good news though! Due to my "nap" I couldn't sleep at night (go figure) I was doing some research online and applied to many stand-up spots as well as...drumming gigs!!! YAY! Someone already called me back for a jam, so you never know! I might be in a band soon!
I also have a new job that I'm excited about. The people are super nice and it's a really great restaurant - Casey's. I am so happy that I'm back in the restaurant business instead of bars. The hours are far better to work with. So far I've only been working two and a half hours a shift! Once training gets done it'll be sweet. I'll be working three or four hours and making the same amount as if I were working nine hours at my old place.
So now I have no excuses, I'm working 20hrs a week so I should have enough time to get stuff done.
The stuff I want to do is a little much, but this is in a span of 5 years. I have at least 5 screenplays to finish, I want to be in a band, of course I need acting work, I would actually like to make my own film from my screenplay, I have a musical I want to make, my podcast and theres a lot more so I need to get crackin!

American's Next Top Model makes me want to purge
I was watching "America's Next Time Model" yesterday and I watch it sometimes because I will admit, it is entertaining. It floors me though every time I watch it. I know people in the fashion industry are crazy, but oh my god! Really?! You have this annoying bitch of a man with an enormous ugly bow on, telling you that YOUR outfit looks bad? HAHAHAHAH ohh isn't that the pot calling the kettle black.
Also, I know it's the industry to be youth obsessed, skinny obsessed and yet, no one has a problem with this? Industries change all the time why can't this one be the most flexible? I can't remember the name of the girl that got voted off, but she looked too old for the industry. She's 25! Oh god, I'm going to be 23 and luckily I'm an actor so I have options. Honestly, I wasn't a fan of the girl's face either so I get why she was voted off but THEY say it was because she looked "mature". Why are they obsessed with youth anyway? Most teenagers are stupid! (haha jk) I think the fashion industry is sooo funny. The fact that people take clothes and snottyness soo seriously is so pathetic in my eyes. Yes we're talking millions of dollars so of course they're going to take IT seriously but those people take THEMSELVES sooo seriously it's laughable!
If I want to wear socks with sandals (don't worry, even I know that's a foe-paw...is that how you even spell it?) who are you to freak out on me as if you caught me throwing a baby off a balcony?! A bad outfit is not the end of the world, we are not hurting anything other than your eyes (which you can look away by the way).
Basically, the moral of the story is, yes fashion is fun and pretty and all that, but I really hope people take it less seriously because it can be really scary that THESE people are in control of how we proceive ourselves. These crazy people wearing ugly large bows, telling young pretty girls that they look old, these people that say a size 2 is an ideal size, these people that talk utter nonsense! You can not let them tell you that you're not good enough. The clothes in the magazines, the cosmetics, how slim you should be doesn't mean anything. These people are messed and I think we need to look at them as such. Why would I take advice from these people? Why would it mean so much for me to care? That's just how I look at it. Whenever I see Vogue or whatever big fashion magazine is out there, I take it for what it is. A waste of trees.
But seriously, if I were to ever be on the cover that would be cool. Not gonna lie.

What's the deal...
Women are fucking up! How do men have all the power? Didn't we have a movement not too long ago? Did we forget that? Men, I think, have figured out our weakness and have not let it out to the public because they know the terrible outcome that will fall suit - women will stop giving it up!
We all know about using sex to manipulate men. I'm pretty sure there are other ways but we haven't found any. Or perhaps the sex has worked so well in the past - but what about the girls that don't want to go about that route? They still will get burned and there's no hope in hell they can come back with vengence!
I know this is kind of going against women power, but think about it! I was just at a bitch fest the other night and I can't believe how many of my fellow gals get blind sighted by some dude! Are we doing something wrong? Probably, fifty fifty. There are more sides to the coin, but doesn't anyone want some sort of justice? Wouldn't you just love to stick it to the guy that did you wrong?
Believe it or not, the worst thing you could do to a guy is to stick to what you promise. If he does something that is a DB (deal breaker) and you threaten to leave? LEAVE!!! There!!! Justice is served! If you were a good girl friend, you leaving will distroy him! MWHAHAHA...ahem.
Trust me, I know it's easier said than done. I've been there before with the back and forth and he not believing what I was telling him because I didn't follow through. Men, I think, are like children. You tell a kid that if he doesn't stop throwing things you will take away his Playstation. Guess what. He doesn't stop and you take away the Playstation - but give it back as soon as he starts throwing a tantrum and promises he'll be good. So to get him to shut up and leave you alone, you cave. Oh, big surprise, he continues to be a doucebag! Get where I'm going with this?
Okay I'm done giving you ladies a lecture.
Men!! Really?? You need to try harder! There are some rules that you need to bend. For instance, don't hit on a girl the way you would want to be hit on. I'm sure it would be cool for once if a chick came up to you and said, "hey cutie...how about you let me buy you a drink and I let you fuck me". No. Eww. First off, do I really need to remind you that we are PEOPLE not objects?! Do I look like a blow up doll? Then don't treat me like one. Now, it's our jobs as women to point this out to men and hopefully the word will spread and men will tone down the lameness. A key to a woman's heart is through laughter. So if you're not funny...learn to be charming. If you're not charming, be clever, if you're not clever, be nice. If you're not nice, keep your mouth shut and pump iron. Same to you ladies. You have to have SOMETHING going for you or you'll find someone just like you...useless. Then you'll breed more useless people that only take money from the government and to get more government money they pump out more useless soon to be rapists people because they don't have any skills...woah, where's the road? What was I writing about? Meh...
