jump into my life - the life of a 19-year-old not-so-average teenage guy caught between toronto and saint john, striving for fame, fortune, and everything else.

All around me are familiar faces, worn-out places, worn-out faces

The title doesn't reflect my current mood. It just reflects my current favorite song. Haunting.

I find it kind of funny,
I find it kind of sad,
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles, it's a very very...
Mad world, mad world.

sorry for the lack of updating recently. I've been UBER-busy with school. soundscape project running all over Toronto, 5-page essay, two more essays coming up, work ... you name it, it's happening.

so, basically, here's what's new :
-we shot the first part of our comedic television production sitcom, "The Affiliate" last Wednesday. it's quite hilarious, perhaps it'll be up on YouTube once we wrap up production. being a television student is quite cool sometimes, no?
-my comp cards will be ready this week at the agency... meaning I will start castings and whatnot very soon, and start doing "real model"-type things. I've invested a lot of money into this, I just hope it pays off.
-Ben turned 9 last monday (the 5th.) I cannot believe it. he wrote an essay recently on the best part of his March Break: East Side Mario's for his birthday with everyone in his family but me.
-I am applying for television station internships for this summer in Saint John. thus far I've applied to CBC and Global, in hopes they'll offer paid internships of some kind. oh, that would be SO much better than Wyndham. oh... God. never again.
-I ran all around Toronto this past weekend for my religious soundscapes project. I visited the church of Scientology (yes, totally crazy,) the Toronto Buddhist Temple, and the Jarvis Street Baptist Church. In one day. oh, dramatic.
-My last exam is April 25th. kind of late. I don't want to be here for that long.

ok, so I think that's life in a nutshell right now. it's 2AM, oh man, why am I up so late! soooo bad. tomorrow's going to be 10 degrees and SUN. OH MAN!!!!!!!!!!

and you just know what I have to do before I fly.

1. If you could retroactively erase one TV show from the history of entertainment, which one would you choose?

Prrrobably a really tacky show that the world could have done without. Perhaps the Joan Rivers show? That show was scary as shit.

2. Are you more like your mother or your father?

I'm an equal divide I think. I have the athleticism, kindness and patience of my Dad. I have the extreme outgoing nature, optimism, and sense of humor of my Mom. I have hella good genes, what can I say!

3. If you could take a year-long vacation, what would you do?

UMMMM go backpacking in Europe, no doubt!!!!!!!!! HOLY yes.

4. Can you think of a reason not to answer this question?

Um, what? Lay off the crack, friday five. Thanks.

5. What's the nicest thing you've ever done for someone?

Uuuuuuuuuuum. I just do nice things on a regular basis. i.e. I bought a cake for my roommate for her birthday tonight. awww, shucks.

fin!
