WOW.. just... WOW

So, it's been a long while since I've posted anything. I might as well tell you why. Homework, and a play. That's why. Either suck it up or stop reading this. Anyways, I have a TON to write about. So much has happened recently. Plus, I have soooooooooooooo much information about the story I started in the previous blog. In fact, I am thinking about posting another chapter tonight.... MAYBE. Not quite sure yet.

Blackout? In public? Nawwwww ;)

So, the above title has NOTHING to do with the blog... just wanted to point that out
Moving on (wow, I write that a lot), I'm not sure exactly where to start. I mean, the rehearsals for the show are going great, my date was awesome, some depressing things have happened, some funny things have happened, some Godly things have happened... let's start here.

Well, rehearsals were fairly fun for a while, learning lines, blocking, and getting through all the awkward moments. One of the worst was when I had to kiss Bethany for the first time. I won't lie, I am a guy, and she's VERY good-looking, but I was friggin' shaking beforehand. Before, Chad said "Okay, today we are running the show. WITH the kissing." Everyone froze. It was pretty funny. However, Bethany offered me some Tic-Tacs. I took them without argument. 

Later on, during the show, I said my line "Can you feel this?" Which is where I kiss Bethany, and I froze. There was a three-second pause, then we both turned to Chad, and said something along the lines of "How should we do this?" After a few awkward seconds of talking, I kissed her. It wasn't bad, but I didn't feel anything. Nothing. Only a stage kiss, but I am a GUY, so I thought I'd feel something like... well... (crickets)... ANYWAYS, it was fairly awkward. The second kiss was a little worse, because it was longer. It lasted about 5-7 seconds. Longest 5-7 seconds of my life

So, nothing out-of-the-ordinary. Just my first romantic stage kiss being awkward. However, she chewed a ton of mint gum the scene before, so when she ran out, and we started running scenes with the kissing again... I discovered the WORST thing a co-star who you have to kiss can have... bad breath. IT WAS HORRIBLE. I wanted to wash out my mouth with something strong. Vinegar, maybe. I'm going to buy those pocket Listerine strips for the both of us. It would make it a tad better.

Moving on... You know what, I'm going to count how many times I say that now. One. Moving on, (two) I went on a double date with Panda and Blended, my date being Rabbit Bait. It was really really awesome. I picked her up around 6:30, and had a chance to meet her parents. Her mom was funny, and her dad was wearing a Tom & Jerry shirt. INSTANT LIKE! I really love that show, and consider it the TV show of my childhood (other than Thundercats of course).

After picking her up, we drove to Old Town Clovis. After finally finding a parking spot (I'm just complaining, it didn't take to long) we saw a few of my parents friends, Cory and Jennifer. We talked for a few minutes, and then they directed us towards Luna's, the restaurant we were supposed to meet Panda and Blended at.

Once we got to the restaurant, we looked for Panda and Blended, but they were nowhere to be found. So, we checked the waiting list. 45 minutes. Panda had forgotten that this weekend was Farmer's Market, and the place was packed. So, we waited, and eventually Panda and Blended showed up, Blended carrying a monster in her hands. We greeted each other, talked for awhile, then walked around. We walked into some antique shops, then Panda and I both said, "We should probably head back". As we were walking under the little overhang in front of the restaurant, our name was called. Me and Panda high-fived, thinking "Perfect timing."


So, we ordered, me choosing the calzone speciale, a delicious calzone with all sorts of wonderful meat and flavoring in it. IT WAS AWESOME. To make the night even more interesting, I screwed with every waitress that would walk by. I did this by switching up my accent every time they would walk over. Mostly British and Southern, but after dinner I asked the waitress where she thought I was from. She knew I was from America, but for the sake of the joke I said I was from Britain. Ah, good times.

Moving on (three... or four... DANG.), after the date, we went to my friend TAB's house... you know what, I'm changing her nickname... to Photo, because she always pulls me out of class to help her with a photo project. Godsend :D

So, Photo pulled me out of class three times now. All times were perfect timing. One helped me get out of sitting there doing nothing, another helped me get out of listening to a lecture, and another time helped me get out of a stupidly boring and pointless assembly. We took some awesome photos that will hopefully be up on Facebook soon (They better be) before I curb stomp a baby.

So that was off-topic. But, after the date, we went to Photo's house to crash a cupcake party they were having. Delicious red velvet!!! After, we watched Mulan, then got kicked out of her house because her parents were going to bed. So, we went to a nearby elementary school, where the janitor yelled at us saying that he would call the cops. Well, it's public property, so technically we are ALLOWED to be there. Idiot.

After, we went to the park by my house, and we all hung out... that's part of the depressing part that I am NOT going in to.

So, fast forward a few days. I was leaving for school in the morning, when a lizard ran across the cement. I literally yelled "S#!T" and chased after it. I love lizards. I will catch one and name it Paco.

Moving on again. I will post the second "Chapter" of my story after I get my homework done today. Then, you can see where it is going from there :D

Finally... Oh yeah! We are filming a custom music video to the song "Kiss Me Slowly" by Parachute at Panda's house on Saturday. I will post the video on the blog, if it will let me. It's going to be awesome.

Well, peace out. Hope you enjoyed reading all this. I wish people would comment :( I feel so LONELY!!!!

Quote of the Day
"Saying bless you disrupts the class."
"I'm sorry, should I say, "God bless you?"

  1. I don't understand my nickname being TAB to begin with...but whatever. I'm glad those outings are a Godsend to you! And I appreciate you not going into detail about the end of the night on Friday. I pretty much love how your whole life is basically based around our group. ha! It's okay, if I didn't know you guys, my life would be so boring. You should talk about our lunches in the next one, considering it will become routine in not too long. :)
