Unity: 1918

This is the last week of Unity. I have had so much fun with you guys, I hope to work with all of you again in the future. But now since college calls I am not able to act in community theatre, too much stress, unfortunately. Thank you for all the laughs, the smiles and of course the fun we have all had on and off stage, have a great week everyone, and break a leg!

I might need help....

OK, so I might need therapy because I have a new addiction.
Yes you guessed it. The game "Little Big Planet" SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO addicting.

That is all

The Rainbow Theory

Well it's been a while since I blogged, and there is only a couple things I wanted to say.
1. Melissa, seriously wtf? Why are you acting the way you are. You used to be such a good friend and now you're turning into a selfish bitch and it kills me, it really does. You have my camera in your possession and you refuse to bring it to me. I can't afford it, yet you have the car to bring it, I really don't understand. It really hurts the way you're acting lately, and it's been since you have met Caitlin, no word of a lie, and it really bugs me!
2. College shit, hoorah I am getting closer to being accepted, just aced the English assessment today, fingers crossed!!
3. Melanie, I really hate how we can never get along, every time I try to get a moment to socialize, or just have fun with you, I get shut down, you may not know, but it really hurts. I want to be able to have a relationship with you, I always have. It seems like you hate me, I love you sissy, and I guess it's a one way thing, and it feels like it always will be.

Update, and the topic of Bags of Hell

Hey everyone!
Well this is a relief. I found some security settings here so that people who were looking for trouble, wouldn't find it.
To start this one off: Fuck you!
You send daddy off with a warning? Like seriously wtf? SOOOO immature! It was OUR relationship, and you get daddy involved. He said he didn't want me writing about you anymore or he would get the cops involved (hence the new security settings)? Seriously, you're entire family is immature, I don't understand why you would go to daddy about something we can fix ourselves. You wanted to get me charged with slander? Woah now, you have done the EXACT same thing with your blogs, PLUS you also vandalized my property, so yeah, if you wanna fucking pull that, go right ahead, it will just come back to bite you in the ass. But whatever as soon as I am getting my DVD back from you, you are gone from my life.

Bags of Hell:
Quite frankly, I am getting very sick of the reusable bags that customers bring through my till. I have mentioned them before, but I think they need more attention then a few mentions. First off. I am not your fucking slave. If you want YOUR bags packed the way YOU want them packed do it YOURSELF. Secondly. When you ask me if I want your bags, you don't hear it, but I always say

"I don't want to pack your fucking bags"

 Because I don't. You are quite capable of doing it yourself, but you are too God damned lazy to do it yourself. What is going to happen when Sobeys doesn't pack your bags anymore? Change stores? I don't fucking care, I'm just a cashier! Seriously people, pick up you're own fucking slack and pack your own God damned bags! (and you older generation say that WE are lazy...pssshhht!!)

Fed Up

Yes, I am now officially fed up with you're bullshit. Ever since this whole drama with Caitlin has started you have become a real self-centred person. Yes you were kind enough to drive me to the Whitby GO Station, which I am thankful for. BUT the drive was honestly horrible!

First of all you try and tell me to call Chelsey tell her I am going to miss the train and I am catching the next one. I don't change my plans because people tell me to miss a train, so fuck that.

Secondly, I had a headache yesterday. Yet you BLAST the music. Yes I made the mistake last night by drinking a beer too fast, but you didn't need to blast your music when I had a headache, seriously!

Lastly, I was trying to help you get to the GO Station, you were ignoring my directions and going by the GPS. I know how to get to the train station, you yelling at me was COMPLETELY uncalled for! I was trying to help you and you yell at me telling me I am being a backseat driver, like come on!

You say I'm the one being immature, if you actually evaluated yourself, you will realize that YOU are the one who is immature and not acting your own age.

That is all.

PS 6 Days 'til Opening Night!

SOOOOO MUCH STRESS!!!! GAH!

Sorry it has been a while since I last blogged, I have been so uber busy! Between College stuff, Unity, work, and a shit load of drama going on, I have not been able to find the time to blog.

So let's update shall we? Let's start with the drama. The whole Caitlin and Melissa thing? Ya, it's gotten worse. Caitlin burned, the most important video to me. Yes, she burned it. Now Melissa is starting to become more like Caitlin with the whole feeding off of drama and doing a great job creating her own as well. I really don't understand how people can do this. Melissa and I have been friends for 4 years, and she would sooner drop me than drop a friend she has known for like 2 months, does that make sense? Well it sure as hell doesn't to me. She wants me to apologize for not being there. Well the last time I checked she wasn't doing a very good job of that lately either, plus I have been SOO busy, I have barely even had time for Chelsey (and that's saying something). Between memorizing lines, trying to figure out my characters wants and needs, work, stress from work, stress from the whole college application shit PLUS all this fucked up drama, I haven't had the time to be able to get a hold of her. She has PLENTY of free time and she can't even throw a text message because of Caitlin, who I might say, is a complete bitch since her and I broke up. Plus she is trying to put shit into Chelsey's head, and so is Melissa which is REALLY pissing me off! And this is only the START of the drama.

Unity: We have ONE week before we have an audience in front of us, and 4 rehearsals in between. So yes, stress there too (and is Melissa there to help with that? No.) I pretty much know my lines but every rehearsal I catch myself calling line because I have hit a blank. So yes, stressing. We have no set, sound cues are JUST starting to be put together and we have no lights set up either. Our ladies have no costumes, so yes, the Hell Week has begun!

College: Application is bullshit. I have been waiting and waiting and waiting to hear from someone (other than Durham) and I still have heard nothing, ugh I hate waiting! I heard from the Prof at Centennial last week that I should "receive an offer within the next few days" that was over a week ago, and that's the college I REALLY want to get into. I went to Humber yesterday and not even NEAR the same feeling I got when I walked into Centennial. UGH!!!

Work: Fuck don't even get me started. All I have to say about that is that if you are in a pissy ass mood, don't fucking come in ok? It's THAT simple! I am not your slave, I am a cashier, there is a difference so suck it up. Do I want to pack your bags? NO! I only do because I have to and you are too God Damned fucking lazy to do it yourself!

So, I think that pretty much sums it up. 

Green Screens -_-

OK, so I wanted to rant about green screens. Apparently this is the new way to go in films. Yes, the technology is out there, and getting better day by day, but does it really need to get to the point where we don't need sets or actors anymore? Bottom line, I HATE green screen. I know it's what the cool kids are doing these days, but a set, and building a set is the key transformation with a film and the magic of a set, or even being on location, it's one of the key reasons why I want to get into film production. To travel to our location, see the world, film all around the globe, see the sites that are on the screen when you watch it in theatres; not stuck in a warehouse somewhere with a green screen and a shit load of lights and a camera. I like to be at the Eiffel Tower, in China, in London, or in my hometown's film location "Parkwood Mansion". And if that wasn't possible, then build a set that resembles that location. My last resort would be to use a green screen for something that was physically impossible to film. For example, I can't exactly take a camera to the moon and film astronauts walking on the moon, not gonna happen. I mean, let's take Avatar for example. Great movie, great special effects, but 90% of the movie was green screen, which pissed me off. There were places he could have filmed, like an actual forest, or build a hangar set, instead of using a green screen. Yes I understand that you can't exactly get a casting call asking for blue people, so those people would have been green screen. But why not do what they did for Davey Jones in Pirates? Put a guy in a special suit so that way yous till had an actor and not just a voice? That's just my opinion but whatever. A movie that a lot of people hate for example is one of my favourite movies, "Jumper". Great storyline and you don't even notice the special effects, which is what special effects were designed for. It actually looks like the people are "jumping" from place to place, which is what I love about it. Then there are movies like Avatar, the newest Star Wars movie, that are 90% green screen when you could have easily made a set or chosen a location for a purpose in the movie instead of using green screen.

Like when I watch a movie, I love to be able to say "Hey, I've been there! They ACTUALLY went on location". And I want to be able to give other audience members that same feeling when I put a film in theatres. I mean I like the luxury of a green screen, but to me it's a last resort and isn't necessary for the entire film.

My opinion though right?

A fantastic feeling

OK so yesterday I went to Centennial College for my admission session and OH MY GOD!!! You know that feeling when you walk into a building, whether it be for an interview, a new house, or in this case a college and you can see yourself walking those halls, going from room to room, well I got that feeling going into Centennial yesterday and it was the most amazing feeling I have ever had walking into a building. I had this overwhelming feeling that I got in. I was always paying attention to the professor (whose name ironically is Chris Terry :P ), I was always asking question and was in complete awe the entire tour . I was the first one done my writing assessment because I got right into it. During the tour I was in complete awe! The professor's office over looked the TV studio, which we then took a tour of the behind the scenes, and my jaw dropped, and I kept thinking, this is where I wanna go, this is where I want to go to school for my dream to come true. I had a really good feeling when I handed my paper in, I saw this look in the professor's eyes, and the way he said that I would hear back from him sometime next week that I was almost 100% percent sure that I got a spot. Now, I know I might be getting my hopes up here, but I just have a REALLY good feeling about this. there are only 30-40 spots per semester, and I REALLY hope I am one of those. In my portfolio I used my Beside You Music video, and my Lost and profound script. I just can't shake this feeling that I got in!!!

Fingers Crossed :)
