Gangsta Beeatch Checkin' In

"I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use." - Galileo Galilei

Well, I really have nothing much to report as of late. My days are consumed with preparing for Godspell and balancing my studies for a licensure exam and my final paper to COMPLETELY wrap up my Master's degree. Speaking of which, while I truly enjoy and am excited about being involved in a show like Godspell, especially with the great cast we have, I must confess that I kinda regret giving up my graduation. I have been receiving emails about commencement and scholarship dinners, etc... all of which I can not attend because of rehearsals. Now, don't get me wrong. I weighed the options and felt that since acting is my true passion that a show such as this would be a great experience and stretch me as an actor. And, I have awesome friends, Shan Shan and Benny, who are going to provide me with a mock graduation ceremony. That I am excited about.
But, all in all... I can do nothing but say o well, believe I made the right decision and do the best I can in what I am involved in.
But, now what lies in front of me is a 1.5 hour training on some mental health topic that I may or may not remember tomorrow.
So ta ta for now.

Observing the Unusual

It's on the strength of observation and reflection that one finds a way.

So we must dig and delve unceasingly.

- Claude Monet

You ever just sit somewhere you've never been before and watch the people around you? You ever wonder what drives people to think, act, and speak the way they do (no matter how outrageous or sometimes how normal they think they are)? Within each person lies the central core that inspires their daily being. Observing others, watching their interactions, their expressions, them observing others, can say a lot about who they are. Now mind you, staring or gawking may easily lead others to believe you are some deranged psycho looking for easy prey or just plain weird. But, watching others can also add humor to your evening. So sit back and do nothing but watch, you may learn something you never knew you could.
