I went to see this play that one of my teachers wrote. The cast was two people: said teacher and his maybe-lover-we're-not-sure. Jordon put it the best.

"That was like a beginning voice actor's demo reel!"

Laura (the maybe-lover) definitely had a variety of voices she could use. Now most of them were stereotypical, and, believe it or not, slightly offended Jordon, but hey, gotta give her points.

Now, Fred, our teacher, and the playwright, and the reason we had to go see that acid-trip-on-stage, played only one character (Laura played ALL of the rest), and he wasn't BAD, but there are some people who should just not try to do the falsetto thing. The guitar was enjoyable, the songs semi-okay, but really... he probably shouldn't have tried to hit the high notes.

Other than that... it was generally okay. But I think the only difference between that and an acid trip is the linear progression and a lack of trippy colors.

And I have to write a paper on this next weekend. Yahoo.

So... things have been good so far during the 13 days that have passed of 2010. I got to hang out with cyanwitch for New Year's, and I played lots of Tales of Vesperia.

Now, on to other things! Classes have started as of Monday, and I've been to all that I have so far. Here's my thoughts...

( Spring '10 Classes a.k.a. Alyssa is masquerading as a Lit major this semester. )

Looks like this semester is starting off awesome. I'm also going to try to be more organized, starting with getting a planner and keeping track of assignments. I'm going to get books and a planner and other such things today, once I get back from Japanese. I meant to go run and do stuff this morning, but... well... I didn't. ^^ Oh well.

Alright, time to get ready for my first class of the day, and then it'll be shopping time! Yahoo!

So I just got back from going to see Avatar. Not The Last Airbender. I'm talking blue aliens, communing with nature, romance, technology vs. nature, humans lose, that one.

( Paganism )

( Roommate issues )

Hey, LJ, it's been a while. Things have been pretty crazy since the last time I posted, and I don't even remember when that was. Probably October. Or earlier. >_>

So... it's been a roller coaster ride the last few weeks. I've had a 10 page paper of doom, last minute short story after last minute short story, Japanese homework that doesn't get done, movie and Persona marathons, and a bazillion other things.

I had a lot of fun running over the cyanwitch's place to go to the UNT Observatory, and now I've got to finish Persona 3 so I can move on to 4 and learn about all these characters you keep squealing about. ^^

Also, it's NaNoWriMo! If any Digimon fans actually read my LJ, just know that my NaNo this year is a big "What If" Digimon 02 fic of doom. ( And more info here... )

But anyways... ( and now... roommate issues. )

Well, I'd best get back to homework and such. Yay, Japanese!

Well, that was interesting...

Today is National Coming Out Day! Wahoo!

To those of you still keeping your head down, or to those of you that may find out things about yourself in the future, I wish the best of fortune, and the best of friends. It's not easy - sometimes far from it! - but good friends make it a whole lot easier. Take a risk, and if someone isn't willing to still be your friend after you come out, then they weren't really your friend to begin with. Take courage from those that have come before, and don't forget that we all have allies in many places. Ask questions, ask for help if you need it.

And if you need a friend who's willing to listen, you've got one bisexual, liberal, Democratic pagan writer right here who's more than willing. ^^

To those of you who, like myself, are still in the process of coming out (cuz it's a long process, especially when you can only tell people who have "warmed up" to the idea... Goddamn you, Texas (sometimes)), let's help each other out, and make this process easier. We've started, so there's no going back now, but to deny ourselves would be a lie and unhealthy too. Let's take a few more chances, try make life easier on ourselves without burdening others too much - be it with a secret that only some can know, or with the potential awkward that could come at expressing a sexual interest that is not hetero-normative.

Best of luck to all of you as well, and may your allies continue to be true, and at least half as awesome as mine. (You know who you are, and know that I love you guys SO MUCH for being there with me along the way. ♥ x INFINITY)

And to those of you who have come out completely, and are able to be honest and upfront about who you are... congratulations, and I respect and appreciate each and every one of you. It may not have been easy, and it may have had a lot of ups and downs, but thank you, and congrats. You have gone far, and I can only hope that one day I can follow, and I must thank you for going before, and for making my path a little bit easier. I hope that those that follow me in this process feel that I have eased their paths as you have mine.

So whether you're lesbian, gay, bisexual, intersex, transgender, transsexual, questioning, straight, or however you identify yourself, I would like to thank you, and wish you the best of luck.

All of my love to every wonderful ally, and to every person who has gone through, is going through, or may in the future go through the process of coming out. You are all amazing.

♥

... but I'm not, so here, you get a meme. Saw one on microrave's LJ, and decided to modify it a little.


( Meme! )

...today - well, technically yesterday - was Bisexual Pride Day? The post by stillthere4me informed me, since I had absolutely no idea about it. I'll set it in my calendar for next year. ^^

But, as a bisexual, I figured I might as well post something about it, though I'm not sure how thorough or well-thought-out it will be, seeing as it's almost 1 a.m.

So... ( How I found out. )

I shouldn't do this either, but I mentioned it to cyanwitch and I thought that maybe my characters would like me more if I wrote letters to them... *crosses fingers*

( Letters below~ )


Alright, I think we may have worked out some story kinks (and not the fun kind of kinks :P), so back to the assignment that's due at 7. *crosses fingers* Gotta get your head in the game it finished!

( Random stuff that happened today, also some spoilers maybe from Night at the Museum 2 )

I'm still kinda on a movie high. Ignore my rambling. =D

*dances*
