Goals


So I found a new musician I really like thanks to my director/teacher Chris. It's a band called Beirut. It's indy gypsy. I like it alot! It got me started on an idea too. I decided I'm going to take a swing at mask making. I collect them, but I want to make em! Yes, one more thing to add to my stuff of things I want to do. I always get these projects that I want to do and spread myself too thin on most of them. The ones I do accomplish turn out pretty good though for the most part. So far my big projects for the year are to:
Get really good at mask making
Learn to play the accordion
Get my Shakespeare project started
Play the violin as a street performer in Salt Lake City
Read Talking to Tesla (why cant I find time to read anything other than school stuff and plays?)
Save up all my money for Europe
.....so far I have a mask made and am on my way with the accordion.... thats all. Oh well.

There's no swimming in my show

So this blog is pretty much blank, which describes me at the moment. I love hanging out with my friends, but I've basically sold my soul to theatre. I just finished a play for the PG Players. I got to play Charlie in "The Foreigner". It was fun and I got to draw alot of inspiration from my crazy family and friends. Now I'm going off to play in the Forest of Arden in Chris Clark's "As You Like It". I get to play the violin and I love it. I know... I'm a geek, but oh well. So between those rehearsals, school, work, and church, I've become practically monastic in my social life. Sorry guys.
