Okay, so I'm going to make this one kind of quick, not that I don't love the blog, it's just that I've got like four other things to do and right now, I don't really have anything interesting to say.
Basically, I wrote my paper which I need to get from my paper and I need to go get a shower and do the picture for today, and that will take some incredible time. So for these reasons, I think I will impart on you, at least for now at this very juncture, a quote from a great person on twitter.
"You came from a woman, so you have no right to disrespect one." -- AyyLucky
Now, I will tell you that this quote is incredible because it came from a dude. I mean I love dudes. I find them hilarious, but seriously? That's freaking amazing. And it wasn't a retweet, that was all him and just it blows my mind whenever people do something like this, that restores a little faith in humanity. Because there are people out there who know what's right and will keep fighting for it, even if it's not going to benefit them in any way!
Just some things from a college student finding her way in the world, one web update at a time. Hope you find yourself non easily offended because I can get offensive sometimes. I'll try to keep it down, but that's what it is and that's that.

Beda: Day 2: Procrastination
Okay, so I'm reminded of a joke from a meekakitty video. She said that her choir teacher told it. He would ask "Who here is good at procrastination"....and then people would raise their hand and then he would say "Then, why do need to keep practicing it?"
And yeah, I kind of wish that I had someone ask me that like a week ago when I should have been doing all this work that I'm doing right now. Thankfully, good news is that I got all the printing done and now it's all writing the write ups. Well, it's getting there. From the time this is coming to you, I've probably been working on the writing for about an hour or two and I've gotten about half of it done. And yeah, it's amazing what kind of fire you can get in when the fear of failing gets to you.
And I've always known I work the best under this kind of pressure that I have a deadline and I have to get it done and if I don't buckle down and do it immediately, that nothing will be done and there will be consequences. But usually I have at least some of it done before the mass writing spree that is things that I do. So yeah, I'm feeling a little stressed. I did however get PADA and VEDA done for today before I settled into the thick of the article reading and stuff.
This is the first like really intensive project that I've had to do this semester and I feel a little bad for letting it slack for as long as I did, but it's not like there's something that I can do about it and at the end of the day if this is what I need to, I guess there's no arguing with that. And it is good for my skin. The crazy skin I have which constantly craves the stress. Seriously, on Spring Break and relaxing weekends and stuff, I break out but such is not the case when I've got four major projects going on at the same time. So anyway, yeah. I just needed to talk about that.
Because yeah, my life for the next couple of day is going to be articles whenever I can. Hope this assignment comes out okay. :]

Quote Analysis: "To live is to act and much good is done"
I have this saying on my Skype message "To live is to act and much good is done" to most it doesn't mean anything. I'm an actor, of course I would put this little saying I thought up on my Skype, but it becomes interesting when you think about what acting really is.
Acting is not just performed on stage or screen by pretty people. We all act everyday. We don't show our full selves to everyone. There are times when we bite our tongue to save our jobs. This is all acting and it's something that everyone does. Even I, who try my damnedest to be honest, maybe to the point of brutality, doing this in my normal life.
So literally it is what it means, to live, to breathe is to sometimes to put on a damn good [or bad] show. And it's something that I don't take very lightly. We all have that in us. We're all actors. We're all leads in our personal movies and some people treat themselves like an extra. They don't even treat themselves as a supporting actor in their own film. They label themselves in the massive sea of faces. And we are all special whether people want to tell us that or not. I'm saying it, you, yes you who is reading this, you are special.
So we've gone over the point in the quote "to live is to act...," and that would seem to be simple enough, but there is a second part to my quote. "...and much good is done," it might not surprise you that I'm an optimist, but this doesn't refer to my personal belief. It refers to the first part of the quote. When we act, we are thinking of others feelings. Either not hurting feelings of those that are in charge or close to us or we do something nice for someone and we don't want them to know. Much good refers to what we put out into the world by keeping some things private and maybe telling lies to tell the truth. And it's done everyday. It's done without thought and often times it couldn't be better said that we love it.
So to live is to privatize our live, to tell certain people lies so that they see certain truths about something or someone and by doing that we bring much happiness to ourselves and other people. No one notices that it's wrong to act and that's because it's not. living is acting and we all have our screen or our stage and we all have the audience we play into. People see what they want and that is the good done in the world. It's hopeful, but it's also complicated to live this life. That's what's so fun about it though. How dull would life be if everyone in my life knew everything about me?
