    Was on [I can't let you mention that. -Valenti] for like two hours talking with all the people from the play, commenting on pictures and videos, posting stuff. Fun, yeah, but also very sad. I also spilled the beans to some of my fellow cast members about how I'm in love with the person who played Maria (Not giving a name). They all thought it was adorable and sweet.
     
    Then I watched Braveheart. Good movie, uplifting and spirited and gory as heck. XP Love my iPod touch.
     
    My dreams were predictably mono-subject. Her. Obviously. All the things that could've happened, all the ways she could have replied, if I had just had enough guts to tell her how I felt.
     
    On a semi-related note, I've been making a lot of life-related entries of late, a lot of them just me kvetching. It seems like all I can do in a blog entry these days is complain and mope. You can take this time to tell me what you'd like to see instead, considering nobody likes reading up on my problems. I'd appreciate your advice.
     
    EDIT: And also new blog graphics. THE WHO ROCKS

    On a few topics;
     
    NaNo - currently at around 3900 words, going for 5000 by the end of tonight, so I can actually be caught up to date. The novel is coming well, just wrote the first chapter, and am happy with it. And I bid good luck to my fellow Wrimos, can't wait to see some of your works!
     
    Theater - closing in on the opening of Bye Bye Birdie. This week and the next are our intense rehearsals. It's a blast.
     
    RPG reboot - for the record, I'm in favor of the coming revamping of the BZPRPG. Fresh is good, as is the new blood we're bound to get.
     
    Giants - I still can't believe we won it all. I missed the victory parade that happened in the city today, though - I didn't think cutting school would be worth it. But the day sucked, so it would definitely have been.
     
    Other - Not much to say. Life is good, nothing to complain about.
     
    ...Alright that's it, I gotta get back to work. Byeo.

    Got myself some today at my local TRU. Unfortunately, I was unable to pick up the large 2011 Atlantis set that I had desired, but I did nab some other great stuff, including Stormer and Evo 2.0's.
     
    Dare I say, they are rather awesome. Definitely a whole new direction in the way of LEGO action figures - I like it. I await seeing some nice MOCs which will use the new joints in cool ways. Pretty much every part is new. These Heroes are flippin' sweet.
     
    On an unrelated note, yesterday, the cast list for my production of Les Miserables (best show ever) was posted. I am Thernadier. Mixed feelings on that, feelings which I don't feel like going into because the situation is complicated and I tried to write a lengthy blog entry about it last night but then my computer (still the PC, iMac isn't set up yet) died and took the entry-in-the-works with it so I lost heart in sharing said thoughts in said verbose manner. Anyway, there you have it.

    NANO TOMORROW OMGWOW
     
    Problem is, I have a long rehearsal that day (3:30-8:30) as well as (most likely) homework. Odds are I won't write on that day, but I hope I can! I finally figured out my protagonist (thank you SOSOSO much, Lady K!), and with that, I think I'm ready at last. Don't expect to see much of me this month, I hope - if I'm on BZP and not writing, then I'm slacking and that's a bad thing.
     
    On an unrelated note, I saw the premiere of The Walking Dead with my friends tonight. That has to have been the most gory, grotesque, disturbing, awesomely violent 90 minutes of TV I have ever seen. It was surprisingly really well-done, too. I recommend it to those of you with strong stomachs.

    I really gotta get cramming on NaNoWriMo before monday - there's a lot I have left to pre-write, like character names/backgrounds, and a basic plot outline. Hope I can get it all in time! And on a side note, I'm going to go see West Side Story tomorrow - looking forward to that!

    So it turns out that a play I was gonna try out for today just got cancelled 'cuz the director didn't have enough money to get a place to perform it.
     
    Darn.

    EDIT: And for those who have been reading my novel, I have a new chapter!

    Getting up on stage on an Opening Night performance! Bye Bye Birdie was a ton of fun, and I'm looking forward to a weekend of even more!
     
    In terms of Nano, I dunno if I can do this. November happens to inconveniently be the least free month I've had all year, and I'm now, what, 9000-ish words back? Not looking too hot, is my novel. :/

    Hey Lewalew;
     
    WORLD
    FREAKIN'
    SERIES.
     
    You said it wouldn't happen, but here we are.
     
    We have won.
     
    Giants have won.
     
    You were unexpectedly wrong. Logic was wrong. I respect your having clung to it for so long; "it" being reason and sanity, but the time has passed for that. It's time to jump aboard the insanity ship, and hope and pray and watch as my team, against all logical odds, will maybe even win it all. Join us, and be a believer...
     
    GO GIANTS!

    Pretty much my whole rehearsal today was spent on the big kissing scene, which involved deep, soul-on-soul gazes, lots of me affectionately touching her face, smiling, holding hands/waists/shoulders, and being close enough that every part of us was touching.
     
    Not to mention kissing. Lots of that, too.

    I lie on top of the dugout on a baseball field, listening to soulful music, and staring up at the stars in the dark on a clear-skied, cold evening, alone. They peek through the black-blue dome of the sky, a thousand lights winking down at me, as my breath rises in a cloud of misty grey to meet them. The song pounds into my ears and tingles through my whole body. Rough shingles of the dugout's roof are the only thing keeping me grounded, keeping me from soaring up to explore the infinite deep above me.
     
    It is gigantic, and I miniscule. These stars are so far away that the light I now see shining from their places has taken anywhere from hundreds to hundreds of thousands of years to reach me, and yet... it has reached me. The unstoppable energies of the universe conspire and cooperate to bring things even as insignificant as the barely noticeable glow of these stars to everywhere within reach, so that all who see them may observe, and contemplate, and wonder, and wish.
     
    This sky will always be there, even after we have all passed, even after our world has fallen... it will always be there.
     
    I am merely one.
     
    We are merely one.
     
    But the universe is one as well.
