Soooo in environmental science class I was selected as the class guinea pig in order to figure out my ecological footprint. As some of you may be aware I'm what you'd like to call, ecologically conscious. meaning, I try to take some steps in order to cut down my impact on the globe (buying locally and used, recycling like a crack head, etc.). Well, as it turns out if everyone on the planet shared my lifestyle it would require a total of 4.3 planet earths to sustain the ﾄﾏｽ invasion. Which, when compared to the typical American citizen, isn't all that bad.... depressing really. I think the main issue is that I live in by the world's standards a large house that consumes a lot of electricity, and drive a car that exhausts wayy too much fuel. Go consumption!
That being said, you should go find out what your ecological footprint is! The website is the title of my blog. Who knows, maybe you can find ways to cut back, and save not only money, but some space on the earth for other people as well.
As a side note, the other person in my class that also took this quiz thing had a total of 6.2 earths used, so I guess I wasn't as bad as some people.

Me? Casted?!

Yes, you read the title correctly! I, yours truly, have been casted in the winter production of Our Town by Thornton Wilder. I'm playing two characters...minor characters I'm sad to admit but I actually got casted! It's kind of a cool feeling, because this doesn't happen to me too often. Anyways, I can't wait to experience this and I'm going to do my best to observe the process and become a better overall actor. If anything this will be a fun time.
That being said, Japanese class is going well...if not extremely difficult, the new instructor is harsh to say the least....
Okay, I'm tired, I'll write more later

dealing with the public...

can be freakin' stressful! I'm sure anybody that's worked in a retail job has had their days where they just get a crapload of shitty customers. Well today was that kind of a day for me. I just have to keep telling myself that I'm going places and the only reason I get treated that way is because people get envious of my life, the fact that I'm happy, and that their stuck with no life whatsoever (to get mad about self inflicted late fees and expired coupons only proves that point).
To end the night on a happier note than I am, I have officially applied to Portland State University and Oregon State University. Of course I will get accepted to both because I managed to rock this term and bring my cumulative gpa to a 3.59! So all I have to do now is pick which university I want to go to.
I know today was awful but I just have to keep telling myself that I want to do this. I want to work, I want to be here. Japan is worth it Japan is worth it Japan is worth it. If I have my way (which I pray to God I do) I'll be studying abroad for a year in the land of the rising sun. I suppose we'll see what happens but I found a really cool program that if the Indian tribe pays for I will be able to afford and go do. I just have to keep studying the language and I'll be able to see this dream become reality.
I know this is long but I haven't updated in a while. The new term starts next Monday and so does some more acting! So if you want to see me in some productions I will be doing several, every other friday at the chemeketa mini-theatre. It'll be fun and you can watch me do my best on stage! I'll post more info as it becomes available to me.
Well just typing this made me feel a little better, and seeing as how I have to be up in 3.5 hours to go to Target I'm going to bed. Goodnight
