| Wow, I'm making a Xanga update. This is really weird... I haven't really had the urge to update on my day-to-day or anything for a while, but I just suddenly did, so I guess I will.
The other day, Laura sent me an email, asking about how I was doing and to catch up a little and such. Obviously, it was welcome amongst the myspace messages and spam that I usually get. It was a +10 on my already fairly decent happiness level.
Tuesday night, I spent at RBC. I got there at about 7, where I painted, screwed [building sets], and washed until almost 11. For the limited number of people there, we actually got a lot done. We painted everything on Dan's list that we could without him building something first, and the Davises, with help, got some good work done. As much as a pain in the ass it can be sometimes, I enjoyed it. Even washing the brushes, which is the most tedious job ever. I like putting in the work for a show, knowing that I helped put it together in more than just the performance. And any kind of behind the scenes experience I can get, I need it. Tech/set construction is the area of Theatre that I underutilize, but that can be just as rewarding as acting. More so, in fact, depending on the show and part. Painting that crate was much more worth the effort than playing Kenickie in Grease, I'll tell you that much. ;p
So yeah, that's about it. Just making sure Xanga doesn't have a reason to delete my account. ;[

49. [if so, why do you like that person?]
She's an amazing human being. She has everything I could ever possibly ask for in a girl: generousity/kindness, intelligence, beauty, a great sense of humor, etc. I find myself attracted to everything about her, no matter how stupid or insignificant it may seem. The way she runs, the way she sits, the way she sticks her tongue between her front teeth. All those little things that you're only supposed to notice when you're dating, I guess. Above it all, I just have this deep, undying concern for her. I care about all of my friends and usually will wind up doing anything for them, but she seems to be on a tier above that. Without a second guess, I would do anything she wanted me to, whether or not it's beneficial to me. As much as I hated A Knight's Tale, I would similarly let the jouster kick my ass. But I know that I wouldn't have to worry about that, because she wouldn't make me do anything harmful to myself. Regardless of who I am to her, she wouldn't have me do anything that I wouldn't do willingly. It's how she is, unless I just have a complete misconception of her. But I'll assume I don't. I have my doubts anymore of what love is and how it's supposed to work. I couldn't tell you what the hell love really is. I just know that every sight of her beautiful face or every sound of her beautiful voice (without a doubt, the most beautiful singing voice I've ever heard. I was honestly stunned the first time I heard her) makes me want to keep on living, with a hope of making the rest of the world as happy as I am in each of those very moments. That I care about her more than everyone else I know, period. If that's not love, then I really don't have a fucking clue. And above all, when I really think about it, I just want her to be happy. I really do, even if I can't do that for her. I like to believe I could if I would just have a chance to prove myself, but if I can't make her happy, I just hope she is happy with her current situation. I'm unworthy of her, anyway, so I pledge to leave her alone, to try and let her be at peace. I try to move on; hell, I even started to a few times. I'll find another girl that I kind of like; maybe she doesn't have that magic charm, but she's nice and fun to be around. So I'll quietly pursue alternate girl for a week or so, I don't know.. Before I know it, something falls through-- she gets a boyfriend or I realize that she isn't interested, whatever-- and the fog over my eyes lifts. I can see clearly again, see the truth again. And there she is again. I never stopped loving her, I just got disenfranchised and then distracted. I'm back to the same non-moving, wonderfully miserable place I started. And I get scared. So, so very scared. I try to be her friend because, well, I like to think that I am her friend, but I'm afraid of her. Afraid of what I might say, what I might do. Afraid of how she feels toward me, how it may change for the worse if I do something wrong. I can take the rejection, but I don't want to lose it all. I don't want to fail completely.. But I digress. It's almost 5 AM, so my inhibitions seem to have fled me. I guess that's why I found the nerve to write this. I'm usually a spineless coward with no confidence and no resolve to pursue anything to its end. Try as I may, I just can't seem to be more confident in myself. I'm working on it.. So yeah. The answer to the original question is up in there somewhere, I think. Take what you will.
50. [was this a good survey?]
Sure
------------------------------
You can't escape what makes you tragic you know; vicious 'cause you want to be, leaving time possessed to please you...
