Jasette's blatherings, or lack thereof
mostly lack thereof
hay you guys hi plinkinfrot
So I don't really care that AX is at the LACC next year. I checked it out pretty thoroughly and it seems like people really were exaggerating. I mean yeah, there's probably going to be some sort of drunken loser action, but I personally like the sense of adventure that adds to the whole thing.

Anywho, I'm definitely going to be going next year, but for the next couple of months, up until the sweet hotel deals turn up (I'm shooting for a nice room at the Holiday Inn LA City Center right now, but that could change depending on where the official AX hotel is) I'm trying to get my mom to let me go alone. It seems obvious, but alone, you have the freedom to do whatever you want to. If I had wanted to go to the Gaia Sponsored Dance that night when I was stuck at the California Pizza Kitchen without a ride back to my hotel that was fifteen miles away, I could have -- especially if I had thought things through and booked a hotel that was in walking distance of the convention, like I'm planning to do for next year.

It's a little crazy, thinking about next summer when this one is barely halfway through, but I don't really see myself having much adventure for the rest of this summer and I guess I like planning ahead when the things I'm planning shall be hella fun. Especially since, if things go the way I want, I'll constantly have loads of Gaian friends hanging around me and I'll always feel safe and happy.

So I figure if I do go alone I can prearrange to have a cab pick me up from the airport and drive me down to the LACC, or I bet there's a bus that does that, me and buses are like peanut butter and jelly. And then, well, depending on who's staying at my hotel, I'll either bunker down in my room and Gaia it up until the morn' (I'm planning to arrive the night before the convention starts so that I can feel comfortable the next day) or I'll hang out with people and be social. It's funny how with people from Gaia I feel so comfortable but with people from school I feel like I'm something somebody sneezed.

In other slightly related news, I was planning on maybe getting a job at Starbucks next summer, since there's one within walking distance from my house (a little under a mile away, probably). I've never had a real job before though and I heard they're really selective with their people so I dunno. My mother has suggested that I try to get a job there sometime in the spring and then they'll be more lenient with my vacation time in the summer. This sounds like a good idea to me. But. Work. Crazy. I am such a lazy childish buffoon, doing stuff to get paid is a very foreign idea to me. How much money do people making by 'working'? What would I do with said money?

This Thanksgiving I'm going to stay up for the great deals night thing and get a laptop of some sort (portable computer device) to recieve on Christmas day. Is this a good thing? Do I like laptops? I've had Gemmy for so long I've become disenchanted with those inset keyboards and connected monitors. It all seems so cold and unfeeling to me. If I'm going to get a laptop, not only is it going to have to have blue somewhere on it, it's going to have to have feeling, and maybe even a cool name like Gem Philips here.

Gem's name comes from the two monitors she's had over the ages, of course. The first one was a Gem and the second, current one is a Philips.

If only I weren't so crazy. They always go for the crazy ones.

I have an improv midterm today and I'm a little nervous. I have to explain this blocking exercise, then do Sit-Stand-Lie and Enter-Exit, which are pretty fast games as far as how long you're actually aware it takes, but whatever. I still need to break a couple legs.

But for now, I must go write up one of them Tuesday Letters and email it to my teacher's address. Then pretty soon after that I'll be off, then pretty soon after that I'll be off again for Ashland, which is going to be a huge test for me. Do I really want to go to SOU? Is it too much of a compromise? Competitive theatre program with crappy other areas? Whatever, it's only my future.

K so.. I'm going to read all of that and post a really long reply post.
Because it's 12:51 A.M.
And I have very little to do. But take that to offense. Your journal is uh.. very high on my priority list. xD
But anyways, I decided, it needed an introduction post.
This one. =D

You and your adventure. stare

And where the dance is.

It's cause Gaians are sexy and nice.

Go to Comic-con.

Always.

Sit-stand-lie is hard. gonk
And for some reason, I tend to be lying the majority of the time. I find that's the hardest. I haven't heard of enter-exit, but it seems fairly self explanitory. sweatdrop
