(M[a]n)tal breakdown

Well it is almost 2 so why not write. 3 year of college-only a step further in the right direction. Hey 3 steps back 4 steps forward-progress in the slimmest senses. Anyways, today has been a good day. Not enough of those to go around…but it has been. 3 call backs. 2 that I want and 1 is a lesson learned.

The first and most important. A play write program for the old globe. Gonna spend my summer doing what I love. Gonna make a play and somebody is actually gonna perform it. Hopefully I get this chance. The next is an account executive for the daily aztec. Pretty cool. Gonna be selling aid spaces in the news paper. I dont know how I feel about cold calling but we shall see whats up.

Anyways. I have a good feeling about summer. Please come sooner.

Santa Monica Pier

So i’ve been thinking lately about the Santa Monica Pier. I have never been there but I really want to go. But in recent events of meeting new people, their idea of California is a bit misunderstood. Not everyone surfs and talks in Pigoen—yes “dude” does fly out of my mouth a lot but thats about it.

SO dude, I believe Santa Monica pier is what people see as the southern california lifestyle. And California is often seen as paradise compared to many other places. however, california does suck in a lot of ways. but I think for many people who dont live in california, ignorance maybe, santamonica is the false image of paradise. its a very shallow but, i think at least, cool metaphor.

i kinda just wanted to have something on my tumblr since i have not put up anything in years.
