so here I am sitting in my only friday class. I have to say it is so incredible hard to get your butt out of bed when you only have one class and its your most hated class. We have about 5 minutes until the most boring man alive comes and and talks about everything but the lesson for 50 minutes. Tonight will be fun though...we have an APO(alpha psi omega) pledge game. Tonights game is a treasure hunt..who is excited? I AM! If you don't' have facebook and haven't been able to see my photos I will do a blog with lots of pics as soon as I have time!
p.s. Colby...I got your postcard :)

the blog ain't dead!
Well long F*cking time no blog! I am sorry I have gone this long without blogging but to tell you all the truth I have be super busy!
Classes are picking up and even though I only have 2 core classes I am taking 19 hours and i am at the school from 7am-7pm. Yes indeed...12 hours of on campus time a day spent on classes, eating, working, rehearsing and studying.
I don't know if you all heard but i was cast in the musical theatre cabaret and was given 2 quartets, one of which I have a solo in. Today it was announced that a group of 8 of us are forming a singing group for VSU that will travel and do shows for: opening, meeting, conventions, dinners and whatever else they want us to sing for.

THEA1710 Homework
Observation #1 "where"
Where: My Brother/Sister-in-Laws Attic
As I walked up the painted wooden stairs to my brother’s attic I instantly felt a temperature change. When I began walking up the stairs I was completely cool but as soon as I reached the 6th stair I could feel that the temperature was getting warmer by 20 degrees. As I reached the top of the wooden stairs I found that their attic was completely covered in plush light blue carpet. I found that in they had two twin sized beds on either side of the space, one covered in holiday decorations and one completely clutter free. I situated myself on the free bed and began my observation.
The first thing I noticed was that, in 1 short year of them living in this house, they have accumulated so many things. The Attic was littered with decorations, old baby clothes, retro antiques and memorabilia from our childhood. My first moments in the space I felt completely cluttered and wanted to get out and choose another location but the longer I stayed in there the more comfortable I got. Comfortable in a welcoming way not in a temperature way because at the end of my stay I was covered in sweat and felt like I never left Valdosta.
Once I got comfortable with the space I decided to roam around a bit and check out the interesting sights. The first thing I came across was a new batch of Halloween decorations my sister-in-law was working on. She apparently took a note from Martha Stewart’s book because almost everything in the batch was covered in Glitter. I couldn’t help think that the glue she used could have been better for the glitter kept falling off. The decorations we cute in a way that I would never associate with Halloween: Frankenstein had a smile on his face, The witch was way too cute and the scarecrow seemed to be missing a head.
The walls and ceiling were painted light blue with white puffy clouds, which I thought was odd that an attic would be painted at all. There didn’t seem to be a light but the midday sunlight from the windows shown enough light on the space. You could clearly see that this was a well loved family and their attic was filled with memories from not only their lifetime, but many lifetimes before. In one of the corners I was very much enthralled with a quilt that had to have been at least one hundred years old, if not it looked it. It looked like it was hand made from different silk fabric, all different colors, and sewn together to look like a bed of flowers. Each flower was unique so I couldn’t help but think how much time this had to have taken to make.
Next I ventured deeper in this long narrow attic and found a bathroom. The bathroom seemed at first glance to be a normal bathroom…toilet, sink, shower…but there was something odd. As I walked in I realized either I was getting taller or the room was getting smaller. Knowing I was not in Willy Wanaka and the Chocolate Factory I came to the immediate conclusion that the floor seemed to slope when I entered the bathroom the floor was angled upward as you crossed to the window. In the bathroom the clutter continued with a 4 foot tall penguin with a birthday hat, hundreds of copies of National Geographic, a collection of tin robot toys and boxes of hundreds of salt and pepper shakers.
I could have spent hours in the attic going through all of the collected items but being hearing my three year old niece downstairs singing and playing proved all too tempting and I had to go join the family. The best way I can describe the attic is if you ever got a chance to look at those “I Spy” books that had pictures of rooms with way too many things and you had to locate certain objects…this is that attic. Every movie with an attic that has dress forms, trunks filled with old clothes…the Jumanji game hiding in the corner…that was this attic.

storms a brewin
It has officially rained for 3 conceptive days! Since I moved to Valdosta last Friday I have been wet every day I have been here. Between it being so hot my clothes are soaked in sweat or it raining and my clothes being soaking wet from the freaking hurricane, I change clothes on average about 3 times a day. I went through 3 umbrella's while I have been down here: 1st one flipped inside out and broke, 2nd one that I bought @ the bookstore flipped inside out snapped off and blew down the street and the last one (today) my mom opened and it just got tired of working and said "screw you." Finally today I broke down and bought a poncho! I am going to buy another umbrella but I will make sure its a good one and not pay $5.00 for one.
Another crappy thing that happened with the rain was I bought a book bag which was supposed to be waterproof (can you see where this is going?) After buying my theatre book that cost me a lovely $143.23 it the rain decided to start and drench my new book. If you didn't know, paperback books HATE the water so this weekend I have been ironing my Theatre book.
Other than that it has been fun here I guess...I am a little lonley even with the friends I have here. I am sure it will get better soon bc I have auditions for the Musical Theatre Cabaret this coming Monday and then Labor day weekend I am coming home!
I am off to get ready for the 1st football game of the season and yes we are braving the storm to watch football...who would think I would ever do this?! I guess what they say is true: "college is all about new experiences"

ok but no...
So sadness strikes my blog tonight. Last night was informed I had the best in class essay and when, for once in my life, I am the top student...I HAD TO DROP THE CLASS!
What I wanted to do was drop my math bc I couldn't get to it but my adviser let me drop it. I was sad because I had to drop my favorite class...oh well I will try next semester to get the same professor.
In other news I have auditions on monday for the Musial Theatre Cabaret. I am not really sure what I am singing yet..I would like to do something new but I need to work on it. The Good thing is that my boss, the secretary for the music department, is one of the accompanists. She already told me that she will play whatever I want her to! Score I am goign to talk with her tomorrow and see if there is a time I can get her to run over a few things with me.
I did get my 1st postcard from the postcard club and I do have to admit its pretty amazing. I am being a slack ass founder bc I have yet to find a damn mailbox! I promise you PCC that I will have your cards in the mail by the end of the week, even if I have to build a mailbox!

Here I am...
SO here I am and here I be. I at the moment I am sitting in the Library in an internet cafe looking at this smoothie wondering where one obtains these things. The Current time is 3:13pm and I've been done with my classes for 5 hours. Last class MWF ends at 10:50am so I have most of my day free. Lets Discuss my professors and Classes shall we?
1st possessor is Dr. Odom I believe is his name...he looks like this dude...
Thats right, Gene Wilder...fun times he is really Mellow and seems cool. This class would be Intro to Music, you basic "this is sheet music, this is a treble clef..." yadda yadda.
Next was improve with Jacque Wheeler and I don't know if I am going to like that class but we will give it a shot. I keep thinking that every time I speak her name she will drop from the ceiling or appear out of no where...her presence is so big. I have a feeling I will like her but I am sure I have to get used to the new teachers.
3rd was my American government class with a half deaf man which I was completely like 10 minutes late to. I thought the building was on the other side of Campus. This guy sounds EXACT ALLY like Ben Stein....yeah you try staying awake!!!
I have 2 more classes tomorrow and then I repeat but I think I am going to add a class or 2...I don' know yet. Stay tuned for more info!!!!
Same bat time Same Bat Chanel
*Note to the Post Card Club....I am so sorry guys I DID finish your postcards...(well those of you who have actually sent me your Address) but I still haven't mailed them out. I need to find a mailbox!!! I promise to have them out tomorrow

I can see it
It is nearly 2am on the day that I move to Valdosta...as I am sitting here bored out of my mind I am super duper excited. Tonight at 9:15 I got really tired so I decided to be a big boy and go to sleep at a decent hour in preparation for the move. Because the sand man fucking hates me I got up at 11:00pm and have officially screwed up my sleep cycle again!
I am leaving at 7:00 AM and have about 5 hours to either wait out of try to sleep until...I have a feeling waiting will win.
p.s.
I will post a blog with a video tour of my apartment....aren't you excited?!
p.p.s
I finally found my blog name! "Robot Wizard Owl" for those of you who don't know of the "RWO" I am sorry...but i have a name and it only took 6+ months

AMAZING gifts
so tonight (erm last night considering its almost 1am) I got to visit with and hang out with my best friends in Macon. The best thing about the whole night is I got presents!!! Here goes...
A Few months go I mentioned to my knitting addicted friend (who happens to have the cutest apartment ever) that I wanted a poncho. I told her of the poncho parties we have @ the vintage store and how jealous i was to not own one of my one...rather I had to borrow one from the store to sport while our "PP" was going on. The Amazingness that is Danielle decided to MAKE ME A PONCHO!!!!!! I have to say its the most amazing Poncho ever and I can't wait until its cool in Valdosta (does it ever get cool in Valdosta) to wear it!!! THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH DANIELLE, I hope I thanked you enough bc I absolutely LOVE IT!!
Next on the stop of absoutly perfect presents comes Colby. After me almost destroying her wedding and not even knowing it she decided to make me a going away present anyway (mind you her wedding was like 2-3 years ago, but she likes me anyway.) She kept telling me of this "super surprise" she made me but wouldn't tell me anything about it. If anyone knows me you know I hate surprises so I was annoyed that the small blond woman wouldn't tell me what it was. I do have to admit when I got to her house (on the way to "Blakes" house) I was SOOOOOOOOO glad she didn't but it was perfect. She decided to take every inside joke and make it into a clock!
How you ask?
I am glad you did....here are the pictures that represent the numbers:
12. an 8 year old gay boy named Shannon
1. Lefou from Beauty and the Beast
2. Wizard Hat bc we love harry potter and wizards!
3. Feathers the unicorn
4. a Robot
5. Owl (the owl, wizard and wizard tie into each other...just imaging...ps he has a black eye!)
6. Cadillac the Unicorn
7.Diner....MACON DINER!
8. GNOME
9. and Tom Cruise (the unicorn) oh ooooooooh oh oh oooohhhh
10. Drama Mask
11. Legally Blonde logo
To both of you I commend you on being amazing artists and friends! I Love everyone of my macon friends and with tonight being my last official night in Macon I wish you all good luck with your lives the coming year and thanks for the happy times we have all shared together! I hope you all don't forget me bc I expect you to visit as will I!!!
Look down a few posts for my Valdosta Address....I LOVE getting hand written shit so drop me a letter/postcard/care package!!!

Going away disaster
Yesterday my family (except my mother) went out to have a "goodbye party" for me. The plans were to go bowling and eat nasty bowling ally food, put-put then Lazer tag. Well in the 2nd frame of the 1st game my dad fell on the lane (because it was too damn slick in front of the foul line) and landed in the next lane's gutter. When he got up he was a milky green color and was sweating profusely, also he could not move his arm. After getting him a drink and deciding that he needed to go to the emergency room we packed it all up and took him in. While we were in the waiting room of the worst hospital ever(warner robins), he started to loose feeling in his whole arm and couldn't breathe.
My brother and I lept into action and basically did everything except for actually causing physical harm to the ignorant desk nurses.
To make a long story short we got him into a room. He had an EKG, CT Scan, Blood work, X-rays and everything came back negative. He had dislocated his shoulder but they have no idea why his blood pressure went down to less than half a normal blood pressure. He is ok now, drugged on the couch watching tv.
It sucked that I didn't get to have a real going away celebration but I am just glad my dad is ok....but 8hours in a hospital is 8 hours too many!
4 DAYS UNTIL

Obsession
I am realizing more and more that I am freakishly obsessed with random things. I don't know if its actually an obsession with the few random things or the act of getting those things. Lately I have been getting stuff for my apartment in Valdosta. While doing so I have been obsessed with Three things: Shower Curtain, Bedspread and Rug
I knocked the Shower Curtain out the other day when I walked into the Fabric store on Ingleside and there as if planted from heaven was a bolt of vintage fabric I have had my eye on at Macon Little Theatre. This fabric is the exact same fabric I have been lusting after and apparently it was tucked away in the back of the store forever so I snatched that up and made my shower curtain...suck on that Martha Stewart(I will tell you later why Martha is evil)
Now comes the Bedspread...I was going to go for the traditional comforter set except they are so expensive and who knows how long i will have a full bed. I decided to buy my sheets (thanks to Emmie's gift card she gave me) first and then wait for the bedspread. I found one I like on ebay that is originally from Urban Outfitters but I have been out bid twice already so I move on. Then i found it my dream bedspread!!
Its a vintage olive and while chenille bedspread! I will kill the bitch that out bids me on that!
Lastly comes the Rug...MARTHA STEWART USES SWEAT SHOPS TO MAKE HER HAND MADE RUGS!!!!!
nuff said...I am still on the look out for a good American made rug
There we go people that has been my obsession for the last few weeks. Hopefully when I get all of the said items in my new apartment I can continue my boring life and not have to worry about such menial items.

Postcard Club
Here goes friends...Colby and I sorta came up with a game on accident. If you read my last blog I was asking you all to revive the lost communication means of the postcard. Think about it, how excited are you when you receive a postcard in the mail?
It's really simple,here are the rules to the game:
1. Get a Postcard (make it as random as possible...this may be difficult but I have a feeling that ebay will be a good resource.)
2. Write your message on the postcard as if you are actually there. Your postcard may be from Iraq and your message might read:
"Dear Colby,
I keep counting the Days until I can feel the light of day on my skin again. I long to feel the sun on my face but the downpour of bombs keep me inside.
yours truly,
The Albino
3. Send it!
Thats it. You can make the postcards or buy them and make them as random and funny as possible. I plan on saving each and every postcard I get to eventually make a book out of all of them. If you would like to Join the Postcard Club then leave a comment with your Address and I will add you to the Club!
By the way this is kinda how the whole thing started...this is a video I sent to Danielle. Mainly because I really wanted on and thought it would be an awesome way to keep in touch!

10 Days to school
Hey guys I am sorry I haven't been bloging latley but I am getting ready for school and with Guys and Dolls ending I should have some free time. I have only 10 short days until I move to Valdosta to start a new chapter in my life and all I can think about is getting more stuff for my apartment. I have searched the net and here are a few items I wouldn't totally not hate any of you if I happened to have any of these show up @ my apartment!
I am really doing this just so I can remember what I want to eventually get when i start working and saving up money. If you would like to though, I would love for you all to make me something for my new Apartment. When I moved into Deckworld I had all of my friends make me a piece of artwork that I still have. I got anything from coasters to paintings to a wig head covered in macaroni and painted gold so don't hesitate to make something awesome!
I will be kinda busy these next 2 weeks as I have to say goodbye to a lot of people and have dinners and parties with them...hopefully I can get a chance to blog a bit more before I go down to VSU but I promise to send pics of my apartment when I get it all set up!!
Here is my Address...I expect lots of letters, postcards (does anyone still send postcards?) and other random stuff that is fun to receive in the mail. I promise that if you send me something I will send you something in return!

I am really doing this just so I can remember what I want to eventually get when i start working and saving up money. If you would like to though, I would love for you all to make me something for my new Apartment. When I moved into Deckworld I had all of my friends make me a piece of artwork that I still have. I got anything from coasters to paintings to a wig head covered in macaroni and painted gold so don't hesitate to make something awesome!I will be kinda busy these next 2 weeks as I have to say goodbye to a lot of people and have dinners and parties with them...hopefully I can get a chance to blog a bit more before I go down to VSU but I promise to send pics of my apartment when I get it all set up!!
Here is my Address...I expect lots of letters, postcards (does anyone still send postcards?) and other random stuff that is fun to receive in the mail. I promise that if you send me something I will send you something in return!

Not Quite Art
I haven't made anything in so long. Actually I don't know if I can even remember the last time I sat down and made something. I don't call it art or crafts...I would never consider what I do ART and I think that crafts are something the little kids in bible school do i.e. gluing macaroni on a shoe box. With that said yesterday I finally broke my slow streak and sat down and banged out something i am really proud of...I LOVE MY OWL!
Its painted wood and the owl is made from vintage, new and found objects. I am thinking of making more of these and selling on etsy.

unicorns
This is an ad that was on myspace. If having a good credit score means a unicorn looses his horn and grows wings I suggest that you all skip a few payments!

donate them to me!
Hey guys so I have a new project. As many of you know I have lots of broadway dvds and its not like they come with cases. So I have taken all of my Jewel Cases apart, emptied them and applied individual labels for each dvd.
If any of you have an Jewel Cases laying around I would be happy to take them off your hands! I know I already asked people for ties but that project died when I realized that it would be more like 1,000 than 200 ties needed. OH WELL!
If you are anything like me then you have put your dvds in a flip-book and just set the Jewel Case aside....help a brotha out!

why is this news?
ok so I am not a huge gay activist bc I think "pride" festivals just set us back in the eyes of un-accepting views. Seriously why is this news...as I was looking over youtube videos I found a site that had interviews from gay and pro gay celebs for the 2007 GLADD awards. I am wondering why this made national news...two women kissing because they are in love....GASP!
I want this
so if you don't know...I love 2 things, Owls and Robots. Here is a robot owl that hooks up to your USB drive and is the most amazing thing ever. You know you wanna buy 2 of these and give one to me :)
This little guy is about $25.00 from GeekAlerts

Engrish
Ok friends, I was watching the Graham Norton Show on the BBC tonight as I enjoyed a relaxing night at home. Graham mentioned this website: www.engrish.com so after perusing the site here are some of my favorite photos...
It's sad that these shoes would actually sell in the US
Seriously...they want you to be Fucking Lovely
I don't even know what this is supposed to say!
God and Jesus have been conventionally turned into one crucifix wielding robot

at least I am not the only one
so for those of you who were in "Forum" or know about the infamous "belt scene" this is just a testament to what can go wrong on stage....and the fact that the audience LOVES actors who can't contain it when other actors completely drop character. Enjoy...this is Hilarious!
If you didn't know its from "putting it together" where they taped the final Broadway show...wait until Carol Burnett stops the show....remember back Forum people!!!

Wall Ball Theatre
People often ask me “when did you know you were gay?” my response “when did you know you were straight?” There was never a part of my life that I questioned my sexuality. When boys were hiding under the steps of the jungle gym trying to get a peek up a little girls skirt, I was on top of the jungle gym looking at the boys laying there. It was kind of a vicious circle. Most of my friends growing up were girls. I was really never into anything that the boys were into….except wall ball. I would kill any one at wall ball.
Cut to second grade on the playground
“I think you are cheating….I’m telling!”
“What are you gonna tell? Teacher, teacher Jon is cheating at wall ball! How can I cheat…its throwing a ball against a wall…there are no cards to hide, there are no dice to rig, there are no chips to steal. I think you are an idiot!”
“I’m telling….you called me a word I don’t know”
“Yeah that will go over well….teacher, teacher Jon called me word I don’t know!”
“What was the word Jon?” the teacher would ask
“all I said is that he is worse than president Bush.” I would say
“well what were you doing?”
“accusing him of cheating.”
“well then…” that’s all she said, she then turned and I could hear her calling to another teacher “shit so I have a liberal pre-teen in my class!”
“HA HA I win again!” I would say before I stuck out my tongue and ran off to catch a glimpse of the cute little boys.
What people should ask me is when did you first get into theatre? I can talk forever about that. I didn’t want to be in theatre starting off. I wanted to be in a band. My father was in the Air Force rock band when I was a teen. They would do this “drug-free” show, when I look back at it I can’t believe how cheesy it was but I thought I was the shit.
“my dad is the drummer” I would tell a cute boy
“want to be my friend?” says the boy
“sure, but you have to give me something” I would get a new cute friend, and a new toy…kill two of those fucking birds with one stone!
Some of the best times of my life were sitting back stage at one of his concerts. They would always get a big celebrity to come in and do a cameo or what not. I met so many people that way: Reba, Brian Setser..but not his Orchestra, and L.L. Cool J…just to name a few.
*note- if you can name drop, do. It will only make you seem
cooler than you actually are.
I would sit on a speaker, or a really big fog machine, or anything I could and watch as my dad played his heart out for thousands of screaming kids.
“DRUG FREE…..WAY TO BE!”
I didn’t audition for my first real play until I was a Freshman in High school. I didn’t know I could sing until then. I remember going to auditions and singing the Alma Matter. The director stopped me and said
“where the hell did you come from?”
“I came from tabor middle school…sir” Since this was my 1st audition I didn’t know that most directors actually talk to you…I thought I would go in sing and read the next day that I didn’t make it into the show.
But I made it. I was the only freshman to make it into the one-act play that year. Evidently at my school no freshman has ever made it into One-Act since that kid that played Michael Jackson in the Jackson movie. You know…the one that they play on VH1 all the time. He plays the Michael that got his hair burned off.
Cut to the fist rehearsal for “Damn Yankees” (my first show)
“you must think you are tough shit eh freshman?” said the lead actor guy(he didn’t make it as a freshman)
“ummm….well no. I didn’t know what I was doing. I just sang”
“well here, I am the best. If you try to take anything away from me I will kill you.”
I have come to realize that theatre can be extremely vicious
“uhhhh….alright. I wouldn't take anything from you.”
“you got that right! I am better than you, there is nothing that you do that I can’t do 20 times better”
“I could kick your ass in wall ball”
I win. During the show that ass hole fell into the pit and broke his arm. I was the fist one to look in the pit and see him clutching his bleeding arm and crying.
“now can you beat me?”

Queer Stigmata
a little info on the following stories. I, at one time wanted to write a book, here are the stories that I had for it...everything actually happened but I may have stretched the truth a little :) this is my Favorite one...so start with my fav, they will only get worse from here!
"Queer Stigmata"
I used to give blood. In High School we would give blood like twice a year. When I was finally of age I gave blood. I was so mad at the question sheet you had to answer before giving blood. I was fine until I got to this.
"Queer Stigmata"
I used to give blood. In High School we would give blood like twice a year. When I was finally of age I gave blood. I was so mad at the question sheet you had to answer before giving blood. I was fine until I got to this.
16. Are you a Homosexual?
17. If yes have you had same sex, sex?
WHAT THE FUCK!!!
How horrible is that. So in the yes/no box next to “are you queer” I checked YES. Next to the box that said “have you fucked a man in the ass?” I checked NO………but I wrote in: “so what if I have? Is that such a bad thing?” and drew 2 boxes and above one I wrote YES above the other I wrote No. I got In School suspension(ISS) for this………but I didn’t go. I said that If they were going to send me to ISS then I would go the school board and tell them that this school was saying that just because I was gay that I could not give blood………and I had answer 30 questions in order to give blood so the least they could do was answer 2 of mine. I didn’t have to go to ISS.
Cut to me laying in the chair waiting to give blood.
I laid there and watched the tiny white woman prepare to stick me with a needle that I didn’t know where had been. It wasn’t wrapped. I told her that I wanted a different needle but she said it was clean
“count from 1 to 5 and on 5 the needle will go in.”
“1, 2, OW SHIT! I was only on 2!”
“well its in”
“no………take it back out. You said it would be on 5, take it back out and do it on 5”
“do you really want me to make another hole in your arm?”
“………true”
so I laid there and watched the blood drain out of my body. That is a freaky thing. Something that is supposed to be inside you is being sucked out
cut to the 2nd time I gave blood
This time I checked YES to the question “ever screw a guy?” I hadn’t but I said I did………just to see what happened. They said I couldn’t give blood. My original threat came back. I got to give blood again. They were saying how much they needed blood, and making a big fuss about giving………they must not want a queers blood. Fear of transplanting the gay virus I guess. So there I was. Back on the ugly blue chair. Waiting for a large black woman I have never met shove a metal sliver into my vein.
“count to 5, on 5 I will put the needle in.”
“last time I did this she went on 3”
“oh yeah”
“yeah………1, 2, 5”
“where was 3 and 4?”
“pain comes on 3 and 4 is useless”
“you’re in theatre aren’t you?”
“…..shut up”
“do you really want to be mean to the woman with a needle?”
“3! OW SHIT!!! Take it out take it out take it out!!!!”
“quit being a baby”
“TAKE THE FUCKING THING OUT RIGHT NOW!!!” if we were in a movie my head would be spinning and I would be spewing split pea soup all over her white smock with little pigs dancing on it. She took it out. She went through my Vein. The Needle went through my vein and she was yelling at me like it was my fault. Then I got the GREAT NEWS!!!
“this was my fist time.”
“well it wasn’t good for me! GO BACK TO SCHOOL!”
I never bruise. I don’t know why but I can get hit with a lead pipe and I wouldn’t bruise. But my arm was black and purple. I still hate her.
I was talking about it with my mom a while back………
Cut to us in the car driving by a blood donation place
“what happened to you? Why don’t you give blood anymore”
“you remember what happened last time” I was rubbing my arm
“oh when she made you cry?”
“I didn’t cry mom. My arm turned black because she pierced my vein.”
“who uses the word pierced besides talking about an ear?”
“It was black!”
“you are too dramatic”
I looked at my arm………there was a small red dot, as if I had just given blood.
“STIGMATA!”
That was not a fun time. I vow that I will never
give blood again. And you can quote my dramatic
ass on that one!
so i'm going to hell
I realized today, while I was at orientation, that I am going to hell. Well it was really on the way home that i came to the realization that I would be spending the rest of eternity burning in a fiery pit. Why you ask....i'm glad you do!
I make fun of people way too much, and keeping with the current trend I will discuss some of the "interesting" people I saw/met at my college orientation.
*guy with planter on his head- ok this guy actually looked like he was talking out of the house and decided he needed a hat...so what did he do? takes his moms fern out of the wicker basket and wears it as a hat...YEAH!
*many guys wearing high-top converse shoes with shorts and black socks - I don't know if this is the new "trend" thing to do but c'mon people...REALY?!
*the preacher - we got a lecture about how you can't really succeed in college life without Jesus. Now I love Jesus and all but I really just wanted to stand up and say "I am Jewish...what now bit!?"
*orientation leaders - I think that they feed these students speed in the morning bc when we got there, at 7am mind you, they were jumping up and down and screaming...and it lasted ALL DAY!
*people in Red VSU shirts - this is kind of a continuation of the above mentioned group but seriously...everyone in a damn red shirt was happy.
*my dad - he fell asleep during the opening crap and started snoring...BLAH!
these are just a few of the people i made fun of the whole day...it was fun to make fun of them but not fun to be there for this pointless orientation. There are coutless others but i would be typing for the rest of my life describing all of the morons here.
So friends what did we learn in todays bolg? Jonathan is going to hell!
BTW....I am going to post some of the stories I wrote a few years back bc I just now remembered them so I want your comments on them.

A REAL PLANET UNICORN!!!
The 10-month-old deer was born in captivity at the Centre of Natural Sciences, a nature reserve near Prato.
 | |
While single-horned deers have been spotted before, this particular buck has a uniquely central horn, thought to be the result of a genetic flaw.
"This is a demonstration that the fabled unicorn, which we all know from icons and legends, probably was not just a fantasy.
"It was probably an animal like this one, with a natural anomaly," said Gilberto Tozzi, the director of the centre.
Mr Tozzi added that the twin of the buck has two horns.
The mother of the two deer was brought to the park several years ago after being hit by a car in the Apennine mountains.
The mythical unicorn was thought to have healing powers and was generally depicted as a horse with the cloven hooves of a goat or deer.
The earliest mention of the beast was by the Greek historian Herodotus in the 5th century BC.
In one notebook, Leonardo Da Vinci suggested unicorns could be captured using a virgin as bait.
"For the love it bears to fair maidens [the unicorn] forgets its ferocity and wildness and laying aside all fear it will go to a seated damsel and sleep in her lap, and thus the hunters take it," he wrote.
Mr Tozzi said the Tuscan unicorn was also remarkably elusive.
"Our deer might be aware that he is a little different.
"He doesn't let himself be seen very often" he said.
He advised visitors to "arm themselves with binoculars and a lot of patience."
Last year, a hunter in Elma, New York, photographed a stag with a third horn protruding from the front of its head.

Interesting Youtube comment
As many of you know I trade recordings of Broadway shows on dvd. Everyone keeps asking me where I get them but basically its just a trading group on yahoo. Since I haven't been able to make any new Vlogs I have been taking the dvds that I have and uploading songs and stuff to my YouTube Account: http://youtube.com/user/somethingradical
I got a comment on a Gypsy revival video that I put up that said this: "this is extreemly illegal, you should take this down right now!!!"
I laughed my ass off bc look around YouTube...music videos, tv shows, movies, video games, concerts, all videos that we did not make ourself. interesting comment from someone that had uploaded all of these music videos that I am pretty damn sure they didn't make bc I am sure that this person is not in fact Avril or Snoop Dog.
we are all breaking the law in one way or another...get over it!

something has happened here.
When we came up on Brokeback,
I thought that I wasn't queer.
but we spent time together
we roped and herded sheep
and soon I knew that I would fall in love so deep....
Yes i've revised my sexuality
guess I like guys
that's my reality
i'm never backing down
Ennis: I'm through repressing feelings
its time to let them flow
I used to stoop and mumble
now I sing fortissimo
too long i've been afraid of
being with another man
The summers short
and I should get some while I can
I can't deny my sexuality
but I try to use brutality
to clamp my feelings down
Inhibited
i've always been, inhibited
i'd perform violence to disguise the inner me
Jack: Ennis
guess thats why you hit me
Ennis: Still you never quit me
Both: Were together right or wrong
we just can't hide our sexuality
its cut and dry
our new carnality
our world is upside down
Alma: I hope your happy
now that your off with jack
I hope he rubs your back
and gives your goods a squishing
lord knows your aren't fishing
oh why has life thrown me this curve?
Rit: I hope your happy
you perv
Jack/Ennis: So if you care to find us
look to the mountain side
we'll be alone together
having our own version of gay pride
There's no one else around us
here under heavens dome
we have each other
and we've found a brand new home
That sanctifies our sexuality
and we won't mind
if our mortality
is different from that one horse town
and nobody in all the west
no cowboy who'd see us repressed
is ever gonna bring us down
Yippie Tay-ya oh!
Brokeback Mountain: the musical
