Months to Come
Well didn't get into "The Complete Works of William Shakespeare Abriged" which is sad, but if you dwell on one show you will crash and burn, it happened, it's over, onward to the next thing. lol, I actually got cut after the initial audition. Next auditions: Assassins - Village Players OTA's - For a paying contract hopefully for the summer or a year URTA - Hoping to get into a grad school to get a MFA. I want to get better, and I love having teachers and coaches giving me advice and I love finding new ways of learning the craft. Life is good, I'm tired though. Wish I could sleep, but I have a busy night ahead of me!!! | | Thursday, November 26th, 2009 | | 2:51 pm |
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
Or in other words: HAPPY TURKEY DAY! Black Friday tomorrow....I hate shopping...but it's tradition. I need a paddle, some paint, and hopefully some cheap seasons of The Office and Park & Recreation. Also a new pillow would be nice. I miss Hello, Dolly! but I'm excited for my audition a week from Sat. for 'The Complete Works of William Shakespeare Abridged." Wish me luck! and HAPPY TURKEY DAY!

Another good quote from Star Wars....... "A Jedi does not cling to sorrow, young Padawan. We accept it. Sorrow is a part of life as well as joy. There are gifts to be found, even in death and sorrow…strange gifts. We accept this, we learn, and we go on."- ―Plo Koon to Aayla Secura

I'm going to my first college homecoming today! I'm excited....although it makes me feel kind of old.... | | Sunday, September 20th, 2009 | | 12:59 am |
Star Wars For Thought:
Ever get goosebumps when you hear a certain line of dialogue in a movie, here are two from Revenge of the Sith, both from Padme Amidala: "So this is how liberty dies....with thunderous applause." " What if the democracy we thought we were serving no longer exists, and the Republic has become the very evil we have been fighting to destroy?"You could easily apply these to things that happen in life, whether or not they have to do with politics is up to the person saying the quote, but I feel like George Lucas wrote two very strong lines of dialogue here, and for some reason I felt the need to share.

Good Quote
"Do everything with a mind that lets go. Do not expect praise or reward." -Achaan Chah My friend Bethany posted this on my Viewpoint teacher's wall on facebook, thought it was a great quote and wanted to share it. Also, I may or may not have an amazing job......I think I have it, there is a 10% chance I might not have it, but I'll post more if I do get it! If not I'll post on why I thought I'd get it and what it is! Current Mood: calmCurrent Music: Company | | Saturday, August 22nd, 2009 | | 11:52 pm |
Tenis
I love Tennis. It's amazing. I've been playing a lot more lately, and I love it, and I want to get better at it. It's such great exercise! Played with Steph, her sister Jess, and Kaela tonight. I wanna play more, I think I'm slightly obsessed. On the down side I almost killed us all by turing on a green light while another car was coming straight...ooops. | | Monday, August 10th, 2009 | | 12:35 pm |
22
I'm 22....and that is weird. I feel old, but it's also kind of cool. In other news: I went to New Philadelphia Ohio and saw my friend Bridget in 4 plays. It was at an Out Door theatre called Trumpet in the Land. It was sweet. Out door theatre looks so different and like so much fun. I would love to try something like that one day. I really want to go out there and start auditioning. I love theatre, and I want to start my career now, this second, so why am I sitting on Live Journal? lol. Anyways, it was good to see her, and drove the 5 hour ride with my friend Amel. Met new people, and I became less awkward as the days went on. We were going to be there thursday night, come home Friday. But Stayed till Sunday morning! It was a blast, plus a blockbuster went out of business in their town and I bought 6 movies for 3.99 a piece! I saw: Trumpet in the Land, White Savage, Winnie the Pooh, and The Music Man. White Savage was prob. my favorite, although the very end of Trumpet was sweet. And I love the songs from Music Man, never saw it before. And my friend was Piglet, so Pooh was funny! | | Thursday, July 9th, 2009 | | 11:07 pm |
Ah!I
I leave for Cali on Sunday at 6am. I'm doing Improv and I think some sketch writing with people from The Second City and other places. I'm so freaking nervous, but so freaking excited! I can't wait to to learn this stuff, but it's so intimidating at the same time because you have to be so honest when performing it and they call you out when your not being honest and real. Two weeks!!! 8:30 am - 10pm every day, yoga and Improv/Sketch Comedy! Gonna be great! I just sent fan-mail across facebook to one of my favorite MAD TV alum's Mary Scheer.....hope she isn't weirded out lol. Also I'm about to go see Bruno at midnight with some friends! I'm excited!

Don’t take life for granite
Don't take life for granite....you never know when it may be taken from you, or someone you love. Stay in touch with those you care about, you never know when the last time you will say goodbye to someone. I feel weird, like it didn't happen, I feel horrible like a bad friend, and I have many mixed emotions. R.I.P.

dream to reality....
I had a dream. I was in the Warren Woods Middle School Theatre, working, except it was our college theatre. Annissa was up there, and I thought I was cast a part in the tempest, but I didn't know anything about the lines or character, then the play was going on and I realized I wasn't cast in it. And I said "the play looks good. I like the costumes." And she said "eh it's ok." And I remember specifically one Steppenwolf ensemble member being in the cast, and also this other girl who was a freshman at Adrian this past year. And I said, "It is just as good as Steppenwolf" even though I knew it wasn't. Then I woke up. I like to analyze dreams, and I have no clue what this one was about. Part of me feels like it's a sign telling me to move on, because it was in an old setting of mine that I had to move on from that I thought would of been hard to but was able to, and that setting had people in the current setting that I am in. But then again dreams are just dreams and may be nothing. I'm so lost with what to do. I want to go back and learn music at Adrian, but I also want to go explore life and see what I can get out of it. But I feel like for right now I'd get more out of going back, which I'm not sure is the smartest choice. I hate this, I wish life was on a silver platter and whenever you needed to know what to do next you could just ask. On a random note, I'm currently making a DVD out of "The Insanity of Mary Girard." I'm having fun with it. I'd like to learn how to become a DVD maker, I feel like it would a lot of fun! There are many jobs I'd enjoy.....I want to learn it all.......

......change.....
I hate this. Now I'm jealous I'm not graduating. Well I am, but I'm not leaving. I'm ready to leave, come home and work and take some classes at Macomb so I can stay on the insurence, but I know it's just me going through change again, I'm at school with the last couple of weeks that me and my friends will be together as 'school kids'. I will still be one next year, they will not be. But I will be walking across a stage with them, and that means a lot to me so I'm excited. I hope I made the right choice. I don't know what I would of did here without Amy, Bridget, Amel, Justin, and Cyndi, and I"m scared to find out next year. | | Tuesday, April 7th, 2009 | | 2:32 am |
Marcus made a choice.....finally.....
I have decided to walk this semester, and I will be in full cap and gown on May 3rd, with a degree in Mass Mediated Communication and a degree in Theatre completed. I am walking with the people that mean the most to me at the school, but I will be coming back for two semesters to finisha music minor. The minor was a last minute thing, and I think I have made the right decision. It feels right. I know my life is going somewhere, and my path is to stay in adrian for an extra year, but it will give me a music background, and also give me the chance to audition at the Croswell Opera House or the Toledo Rep. Theatre, Life is finally looking good! Current Mood: excitedCurrent Music: Company | | Thursday, March 19th, 2009 | | 11:41 pm |
Should I Stay or Should I Go?
Tough choice up ahead.......no clue on what to do about it....and no time to think about it.......................help. On a plus side Opera Workshop went well tonight, besides being sick for it.........A Little NIght Music was a lot of fun, and I can't wait for the rest of the semester.

I don't know what to do....
It's almost time for graduation, I am more then ready to graduate, and also have met all and many more requirments needed, and yet I don't think I'm going to. I might be picking up a minor in music, and staying on an extra year. The grad schools I'm interested in aren't taking new students till Fall of 2010, and my GPA is slightly low, so I might be staying to build that up and to get this extra minor......advice from anyone would be great! I know part of it is an attatchmetn issue and also joining a fraternity, but I'm trying to leave that out and do what is best for me. And I truly think staying is the right thing, even though I want to walk with Amel, Cyndi, Bridget, Amy, and Justin, the five I came in with, but I want to be happy also. I don't know what to do. This is the short version, and once again any advice would be great. I'm calling grad. schools tomorrow to ask them how important GPA is...if they say it is very important than I will be staying, if not, I have a lot of thinking to do.

Goodbye my Myspace - 2/17/09
So I slept through my senior defense today. I've been so good, I've done a complete 180 on how I used to be, and the one day that I NEED to get up, I forget to switch the flip on my alarm. I was prepared for this, and was nervous/excited, and now I have to wait two more weeks. I don't want to graduate with a theatre major anymore, I really wish I could find something else I really like. I'm over it. So I finally decided to delete my myspace today, I've had it since highschool but I hate it. I like this and facebook, so myspace is going forever. Goodbye myspace! | | Monday, February 16th, 2009 | | 2:32 am |
Alpha Tau Omega
I'm officially joining a fraternity! I got a bid, I did run outs, now I get new member ed. and initiation. I have had a lot of support, and some people made fun of me and said it was dumb since I'm graduating in May (which now I wish I wasn't....irony.) But I'm proud to say I will be a member of Alpha Tau Omega (ATO), and I can't wait. I''ve wanted this for a while, and could kick myself for not doing it sooner. But lately I've been in some bad moods, but this is the one thing that is making me happy. Plus after I saw all the dances all the fraternities did, which you would be surprised to know that they all used backstreet boys at some time, ATO was perfect for me since they had a mix of Spice Girls, Time Warp, and Backstreet's Back, among others. lol Current Mood: happy |
