Drop Everything.

Hey, guys!

So sorry I didn't write last night. It just didn't work out last night. Haha, but I'm writing now!

Umm. So, I had a pretty good weekend. I hope you all did, too!
Friday night I hung out with Ally and Johnny (my best friend and my brother), and then slept over at Ally's house. It was a pretty epic time, as it always is.
Saturday and yesterday I basically sat in my room and wrote songs. It sounds kind of sad, I know. But it was actually really awesome.
I used to hate being alone. Now I don't mind it so much. Which, I guess is a good thing and a bad thing.


Hmm, what else to say? Well, I can't give away too many details, but there's this guy I really like. And things are going really well. (That's all you get. :P)


I would like to take this chance to say that acting is hard. I'm not trying to be/seem rude or burst anyone's bubble, but I just want all of you to realize that acting is not what it looks like. I think so many people have a misunderstanding (and therefore a lack of appreciation) of what acting really is. You know, there are so many demands. You have to get up there and bare your soul out take after take after take in front of cameras and crew people and cast memebers.. And later, possibly millions of people. And there's so much to the technique that people don't really realize.
I just felt like saying that. I'm not trying to discourage any of you fellow actors/actresses. Quite the opposite actually. I'd love for there to be more people interested in acting, especially here in Arizona. I'm just trying to shed a bit of light on the subject.


I know that maybe some of you who are reading this would like to be in the acting world, so I have a question for you. Would you like it if every blog post, I also post some acting tips? Some for the stage and some for the screen (cause they're MUCH more different than you think)? Comment on here or on my formspring and let me know if you'd like some advice on acting and everything everytime!



Alright.. one more thing before the song of the day. I'm not making any promises, so don't count on tonight, but either tonight (or if not tonight, sometime this week), I'm going to also start posting separate posts for short stories/poems/songs.. Stuff like that. And I'd really appreciate it if you'd give me some critique, your thoughts on what I write. You can either comment or go on my formspring. But if you go on my formspring to critique, I do ask that you specify which piece you're critiquing (include the title!). Thanks, guys!


Song of the day: "Sparks Fly," another Taylor Swift one.
Line(s):

"The way you move is like a full on rainstorm, and I'm a house of cards. You're the kind of reckless that should send me running but I kinda know that I won't get far. And you stood there in front of me just close enough to touch. Close enough to hope you couldn't see what I was thinking of. Drop everything now, meet me in the pouring rain. Kiss me on the sidewalk, take away the pain. Cause I see sparks fly whenever you smile. ........ My mind forgets to remind me, you're a bad idea."


Someone told me today that they wish there was something really calling them, so that they could just drop everything and chase after it. I realized that I'm lucky to know I don't have to wish. I have that thing.
But they also said they find it interesting "how much we do, give up for the things/ones we love. Or at least we wish we did because then it would make us seem commited, honest. And no one's honest, not really."



Whoever you are reading this, I'd just really like to thank you, before I end this post. I really appreciate you spending time to hear what I have to say about the day and the world. It's nice to know you guys are there, listening to me. :D
