It is all up in the air
As I approach graduation in less than 2 months, I begin to get a little worried as to what exactly I am going to do! I applie to a theatre management internship with the Roundabout theatre Company in NYC, but I'm not too sure that is going to work out. I called them two weeks after I sent my resume and all of my info in and they said they were in the process of calling people to set up the first round of interviews. They were doing this until Match 31st. It is already the 15th. So I have no clue as to what is going to happen with that. I have looked on Playbill.com to try and find jobs or paid internships in NYC. I want to be there and I feel that is where I need to be! I know it is a hard place to live, but I want it. I really do. I am tired of the small town life. Very tired of it. I also feel that my time at UA is ready to be up! I know I am graduating therfore making my time there up, but i just feel it within me. I notice that everyone is making these friendships that they will have during the rest of their time at UA. I have already made those friendships and most of the people that I have made those with are gone or have moved on to another set of friends. I kind of feel like the outcast in the situation. Maybe I am taking it to the extreme, but that is how I feel. I love my friends, dont get me wrong, but sometimes I feel as if they don't love me back. I hate that. People have been saying to me, "Where have you been? I don't feel like I see you anymore!" Well, 20 hours is kicking my ass! I knew it was going to be challenging, but I did not think it was going to be this hard. I think there is a different between challenging and hard. It is Spring Break and I am in Saraland. My last real break from school and I am in Saraland. This whole year I have been planning on going to NYC for SB, but i guess rent and bills took that away from me! Blake did make me feel a little better when I talked to him last night, although a little tipsy, he siad,"Kist think, they are here visiting and you will be living here soon!" I guess that made me feel a little better about it all. I guess it is also a good thing that i am not there right now. If I were in NYC right now, I would not be able to see my family. Although i do not know what I am really goign to do after graduation, I do want to be in NYC. So spending time with my family is a good thing. I may ride over to Pensacola for a night to play with Style and them so that should be fun. I have been talking a lot about what I am going to do when I graduate and the main point that always comes up is,"It really is all up in the air." I don't like that. I need to feel like i KNOW what I am doing. I am utterly confused right now. I do get to see Lizzie though! I have not seen her since this past summer!! She has been in London and now she is back in the good ole' Mobtown! I can;t wait to see her and her new haircut! haha! But anyway! If any of you hear of any theatre management or advertising jobs/internships, let me know! haha! I want to be in NYC!!!!!!!! Current Mood: depressed | | Thursday, March 5th, 2009 | | 6:57 pm |
I decided to log onto LJ and what did I find? APO drama. Do we NOT remember the drama of the LJ a few years back? Some things should not be posted on Lj, and frankly this is one of those things! So please stop, for the love of GOD!!! | | Friday, August 15th, 2008 | | 8:03 am |
Everything is completely different. No matter how we try to make "excuses" (too harsh of a word) or just brush it off...things are different! I have an apt. to myself...and what do I do? I don't know...I get lonely and bored. People I am used to are not here...it is a funny and strange feeling that really is indescribable. I will be there in less than a year. I feel it. I love you. | | Sunday, May 4th, 2008 | | 7:06 pm |
Thank you Val and Taylor! Thank you to everyone who understands Thank you to the people who have made a difference, in whatever way that is! Thank you Blake for helping (verys slowly) realize that it will work out Thank you everyone who cares! I love each and every one of the seniors graduating...in one way or another. I am upset that Lindsay and I cant dance togethr one last time. I hope and pray that I do not make anyone feel awkward, right now is a tough time for me and I am trying to work through it. I now I havent wrote on LJ in like forever! It is true, I did come here a sad little boy from Saraland, Alabama! The parents did not know anything and I sure as hell did not knwo anything either. I soon found out that even college is viscious (sp?). I was naive, and I still think I am to an extent. I trust way too many people and it has turned out to be a not so wise thing. But I thank you Blake for making life enjoyable and loving! You are my best friend and I pray that never changes! I was talking to David after Guerrilla last night, and I came to the realization that college is purgatory. This is the holding cell before we decide where to go. It is one tricky bitch, and I have one last year to decide on where I am going. I don't really mean as in location, but in my heart and mind. I also thought about what I have done at Guerrilla, and that is really nothing! I have done soem group stuff, but nothing where I showcase more fo myself. What will people remeber about me? Dance? Teh GT audience probably doesnt come to DA! or ARDT! So I think I need to take this next year and try something. I love you guys!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
You know, I was thinking that some people in this place are CRAZY! (Only 2 ppl, but they are bitches)!!!!! JM has been making me a little mad lately! I don;'t understand what her deal is! ~D~ needs to quit looking at people like he does because he is mean! | | Friday, August 17th, 2007 | | 2:04 am |
THANK GOD DANNY DID NOT WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sabra gives me the confident that I need to become a somewhat good dancer! That is exciting! So exciting! Thank you Sabra for the confidence! | | Monday, August 13th, 2007 | | 11:17 pm |
DANCE DANCE DANCE!
I am really happy about the top 4: LACEY Sabra NEIL Danny (but he is a little tooooo cocky!) So I am hoping that this will happen...BUT... I met a guy named Nick Watkins who is a mjor choreographer in the dance world. Glen, my friend back here who has his own studio, brought him in for some classes and to choreograph a piece and some solos...well...we start alking SYTYCD and how much I love Travis Wall... Nick and Travis work together for some conventions and they decided to start their own convention called BeyonD Dance. Well they are going to be in New Orleans October 6-7 for the first week of their danc econvention. Nick told me to come hang out with them in New Orleand that week so I could MEET Travis and Ivan (although I am not a fan of Ivan). And to go out with them on Bourbon St. Glen is also taking some of his dancers there for classes. So all I have to do is stay in contact with Nick and things will be great! WHOO HOO! I am not sure uf you realize how AMAZING this is...REALLY! I almost had the chance to meet Travis this past January when Ivan, allison and Travis were in Mobile for NYCDA. But Glen did not call me...for legit reasons though. AND...Travis will be back in Mobile for NYCDA in January! They will call Glen for some reasons and I will be able to meet him AGAIN! I am lucky! YEAH BUDDY! | | Sunday, August 5th, 2007 | | 10:29 pm |
AΨΩ
So when I was in t-town, I took Ben's leadsership and bought AΨΩ letters for my car! YAY! I went to LETTERS to get them and those people are SOOO NICE! I was kinda shocked. Because they were probably like, "why does he want AΨΩ? That is not a fraternity!" But I told them what AΨΩ and they were like, "that is great!" And I also bought Allison some Theta stuff from there (but I hav enot told her what it is)! They also wrapped it and put a Black and Gold ribbon bow thing on it for free! :) So everyone go get AΨΩ letters from LETTERS! they are one dollar for each sorority/fraternity but you will have to buy Alpha Chi and another one with Psi in it so it will be 2 dollars! GREAT FUN! | | Wednesday, August 1st, 2007 | | 10:32 pm |
Alright...Britney is crazy these days BUT... LEAVE HER ALONE ABOUT HER PARENTING SKILLS! they say she is a bad mom because 1. her kids eat doritos and coke...SO WHAT? 2. they stay up late...we all know that kids go to sleep when they want to go to sleep! 3. driving them around to make them go to sleep...MY PARENTS DID THAT TO ME! Ok for real...the entertainment industry is STUPID! GET OVER IT! | | 9:02 pm |

I am sitting here...
So I told my parents about 2 times that I wanted a laptop. so today my dad looks at the Best Buy sales paper and was like, "Do you want this one?" I said, "OK!" so i am sitting here tyoing in my living room with my new laptop computer. I am picking up a little wireless connection1 YAY! I live in a neighborhood where it is mainly older people so I am a little suprised that i picked something up! YAY! And I got a new printer/scanner/copier/photo printer/regular printer for 54.99. it was originally 99.99! I am excited! So YAY! I only mentioned this to my parents about 2 times and then BAM! It happened! Current Mood: a lil shock! :) | | 2:47 am |
I saw HAIRSPRAY again for the third time tonight. It just gets better with age! ;) And then we walked out and beside the concessions was a table. This table contained posters for the simpons movie AND HAIRSPRAY! So I took one and it is now in a frame...awesome! So Lizzie, is it true that Daughtry is playing at UA for homecoming? That is what I heard...so cough it up! :) I am sad yall are going back to ttown very soon and I am not! BOO! :( | | Friday, July 27th, 2007 | | 12:37 am |
Kameron should still be here!
Dominic has showed too mahy weaknesses than strangths and Kameron has showed some weakness but many strengths. So I diagree with them on that. I would really like to see Nigel and Mary NOT judging on the show next season. And Nigel and Mia's apology was 100% not sincere. Mia knew what she was doing and Nigel is the producer of the show...of course their apologies were not real! When it comes to a television show where you are judged on dancing, there comes for a responsibility of the people in charge. Yes we all want peace, and it is never going to happen. There are people who want every american dead. So peace is not going to happen. Sometimes it gets a little tough for me because the majority of my friends that I know and love have completely different beliefs than I do. Which is fine and if it was not, I would not be friends with them. HAHA! But I dont enforce my beliefs on people and I do not want to watch an entertaiment show and have their beliefs thrust upon me. | | Thursday, July 26th, 2007 | | 2:41 am |
So You Think You Can Dance? I think I can...........a little! :)
I am a little upset...I am not going to lie! What is happening with SYTYCD? I mean, I am not complaining about the dancers, it is the judges who I am starting to have troubles with! I just do not seem toagree with them on much of anything (exceot that Lacey is a phenominal dancer). ''Ok they told Mia Michaels told Kameron that he was exposed and looked like an immature competition dancer...I do not agree with that! I think he is an extremely great dancer (and very VERY nice to look at!). I agree with them on the fact that Sabra is superb! She is one fierce dancer! But she isnt my favorite. And the solos. I do not like this idea of having ALL the dancers do the SAME solo. After the first 2, it gets boring. Soem may say that it shows who can dance that dance better, but I think it bores us (well me). They all had to do a solo based on anti-war. What is they all were not anti war? The way that Wade Robson made it out to sound is that they had to agree with it. I know if I were on the show I would have a TOUGH time with that dance! It is funny to listen to my dad and I watching the show because we disagre on EVERYTHING! We argue and get pissed off about each other's comments. It is frustrating. He thinks that he knows everythign the is to know about dance (and I dont either) but knowing about dance somes with the terrirtory that I am in at BAMA! He was like "you cnat say much because you have never even taken a class." I have. They do not know that or that I was in 2 dance alabamas already at school. My bad! :) I wish you could listen to us...we fight like bitches! It is crazy! But I think that Dominic and Jamie are in trouble! I don;t knwo though! but I do know that I spent an hour vting for Lacey! HAHA! (she is my fav.) And a girlis going to win this year, I cna tell! Nick and Benji already won so it is tiem for a girl really! Ok I need to go BYE! ~OBIE! :) | | Tuesday, July 24th, 2007 | | 1:24 am |
front step (cha cha cha) back step (cha cha cha) side step front step back and turn...
Just saw HAIRSPRAY again! YAY! I came back to the apt. from eating and the GAP and I was like "Hey lets go see HAIRSPRAY!" So Stephanie and I went! We sang a lil and danced a lil! Sorry Jackaholic...Zac is mine! BACK AWAY! He is 19 and legal now! YAY! And I am going back this weekend to see it with my friend Allison. And the photographer that Jessica and I were to do the shoot with this evening threw out his back...so needless to say we did not do the shoot. Upsetting? Yes. but I completely understand that this man had to go to the hospital. So I hope he gets better! :) We are supposed to maybe pecan come back up here! So thanks to the people who are like "Hey, I think you should be a model!" It means a lot because that is what I hopefully will do in the near future! :) Take Care! :) (and lindsay, you can watch the entire episodes of GREEK on ABC Family website...who knew?) OBIE! | | Sunday, July 22nd, 2007 | | 3:06 am |
Something weird happened so if my last post is posted 2 times...I am sorry! Lindsay, also on GREEK, zeta beta got into trouble for hazing that new sentor's daughter bitch! (i hate her!) But she got them out of trouble and the president loves her! A video was sent to Casey (ZBZ) of her boyfriend and the sentors daughter having sex (from last weeks show) and she blackmailed her and decided to make her her lil' sis! Casey gave the president a "her or me" speech (tlaking about Casey or the other girl has to go). The president was like "You don't want me to give you my answer!" This is from the website: Episode 2 Hazed and Confused It’s the first week of school and the first week of rush and neither is going particularly well for Rusty. On his very first night trying to become one with his pledge brothers, he fell asleep on the job. His “brothers” let him know they weren’t too happy by leaving Rusty to dash off to class sans shoes, with blue feet and covered in mud. Rusty’s professor was not amused. Rusty’s sister Casey has a problem of her own—namely Rebecca—Senator’s daughter, ZBZ pledge and the woman who made it with Casey’s boyfriend, Evan. In hopes of doing her in, pledge chair Casey gives Rebecca an all but impossible (and possibly X-rated) scavenger list to complete. When Rebecca is picked up by campus police for doing what’s on the list, she makes the most of the opportunity, scoring Casey’s room and endearing herself to ZBZ’s president by offering the sorority the use of Daddy’s jet. Rusty, meanwhile has learned he has to juggle completing an all but impossible engineering assignment with his next pledge night at Kappa Tau. Splitting the assignment with his roommate Dale, Rusty assures him he can do it all. But he can’t. He aces the pledge night but flunks the assignment leaving Dale totally screwed. Facing facts, Rusty tells Cappie he has to drop the fraternity. But Cappie has a better idea—one he puts into motion the very next day, saving Dale and Rusty. Casey gets a handle on her problem as well, getting her room back by blackmailing Rebecca and then, to sweeten Rebecca’s experience, offering to be her Big Sis at the sorority. Hell hath no fury… OOOH and the guy who plays Rusty the brother is a front man for a HEAVY METAL band...heavy metal...HAHAHAHAHA!!! He is also into musical theatre and has been in show like Les Mis and Guys And Dolls and others! WEIRD...I know! :) www.abcfamily.com | | Saturday, July 21st, 2007 | | 3:30 am |
Saw HAIRSPRAY tonight with Lizze, Elise, Brady (their friend), Elise's fater and sister! IT... WAS... AMAZING!!!! There was a little technical sound issues and for it to be a musical and have these problems and I still loved the hell out of it, makes me happy for when I will see it again! I think I may go back tommorow night and then back next weekend when Allison comes home! OMG IT WAS SO FREAKING GOOD! I AM SO HAPPY! I will marry Zac Efron one day...trust! (haha!) So I will be xoming back to Tuscaloosa on Sunday because I am going to B-Ham to do a photo shoot with Jessica Hodgens for some catalog. To be honest I am really not completely sure what it really is for, but I do not care because this will be AWESOME! Hopefully this can be one step closer to fullfilling my dreams of becoming a professiinal model! :) How cool would tha tbe? (but I think I have too many skeletons in my closet for me to be famous...well hell..I am sure yall do too :) ) But it is official...I want to be in Hairspray dancing! Those dancers in that movie were fierce! With all this musical theatre stuff being made into moves (although Hairspray was originally a movie b4 B-way) it still shows how much imprtance singing, dancing is nec. today with actors! It is crazy! Now only if I were an actor, singer and dancer I would be GOLDEN! HAHA! If you are reaidng this Sockler, Hok and Anya were kicked off...YAYAYAYAYAY! You know that I never liked Hok OR Anya! So YAY! I wish you could have see Pasha and Sarah's dance! It was so freaking good and it was def. a throw back to REALtechinical jazz! Pasha is tight blue jeans=HEAVEN! Many people turned against Lacey and Kameron this week! They finally gave Kameron the chance to NOT be a prop and they did hip hop! I thought he did an amazing job with it but the judges didnt think so! I really think that they are tired and really do not know what they are tlaking about these days! HAHA! The judges really did not like much this week and I do not understand why. But oh well! I wish you could have watched it! :( But I would def check out the website! And they als previewed GREEK before Hairspray tonight! I was like HEY ELISE THIS IS THE BEST SHOW!!!! Ok wnough now! BYE YALL! ( I love you lindsay...GIIIIIIRLFRIEND!) | | Thursday, July 12th, 2007 | | 11:08 pm |
