Hey all,
So its been three thousand years since I updated this thing but I must admit not that much has happened since. Luke, Chelsea, and Adam got a glimpse at my amazing taste in cinema as they blasted my life of the Madonna classic, The Next Best Thing. The world must be dellusional because it turns out that The Next Best Thing is critically hated. This makes no sense to me! What more do people need from a movie! It follows the lives of rich attractive people who don't waste time doing unglamorous activities.
OMG OK I HAVE TO STOP TO REPORT ON THE MEETING GOING ON NEXT TO ME!!
Ok there are to Frat-bros and an Indian guy with a cool accent talking. At first they were just talking about like whatever, lending a laptop to each other or whatever. The second frat guy shows up and they start talking business. I'm thinking ok they are probably meeting for a group project...tis the reason right? WRONG!! I happen to hear "adult advertisers" and I thought thats strange...whats adult....OH MY GOD!!!!
They are in talks of making a PORNOGRAPHIC WEBSITE!!!! CALLED THE SEX (but with 3 X's...original...) TUBE!!! ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME!! The Indian guy is designing the website and organizing the advertising (stereotypke much?) and the two bros are gathering all the information. One bro is super worried about legality of what not and they don't want their names to be attatched to it. THIS is RIDICULOUS!!! They are in the most populated part of the food court and not even in hushed tones!! WHO DOES THIS!!! OH MY GOD!! I only wish I had a mac so that I could snap a photo or a video of whats going on next to me.
Shoot I have to go to English where I can further lose faith in humanity!
Trust No one

A New World...goes CRAZY
Lots to talk about.
So much to talk about that I completely support my starting with a short statement and having a period that says more than "end sentence here". Instead is suggests a sort a magnitude that can't be described in words.
To start, last friday I audition for something for the first time inforever and it was really fun. I auditioned for SOS's spring cabaret and to fast forward a week I'm in the ensemble and super excited for it.
On Monday, I embarked to the airport to fly to california in search of gold like so many before me. However, instead of panning for rocks I was looking for gold in the form of a living breathing Julie Andrews. On the way bombs started falling from the sky and exploding my life, changing everything I ever thought I knew. FIRST!!! My best friend in the entire world told me she's 8 months prego (not the sauce but like the baby-in-the-stomach). This took a lot of getting used to. Tears, laughter, screaming, shaking, the threat of binge eating and the response of anorexia were all phases I went through sitting in the Tucson airport. Becky said "be excited for the new person in your life!". Sharlee said "This is really exciting for her and it should be for you too". My mom said "Whats the big damn deal kevin! she's 25 years old what do you expect!"...thank you mom
So I get to California, freak out over the bun in the womb-oven and then stop by my house to witness my mother's first martini and my dog's possible fetal alcohol syndrom. Fast forward to the next day when we're at disneyland!!!
We go to disneyland in search of the Andrews and get there only to realize there are no wristbands left. In spite of attempts to get there are early as reasonably possible for us people had camped out the night before dashing all hopes of a person meeting. HOWEVER! We did go to the Carousel and see her speak and very close range and just loved every second of her.
I'm going get a little sappy here but I believe its important that I say this.
Julie Andrews is the symbol of my childhood and I get misty every time I hear her voice but I would be lying if I said she was the most important part of my day. While Julie Andrews is the icon of my life, Lex is the best friend in my life and spending the day talking to her and catching up with her and getting excited about her baby was the most magical thing that could happen in the most magical place on earth. After she dropped me off at the airport I was in total disney princess mood (which basically means walking with one hand up in the air for no reason) and I really became very glad to have all of my friends. If you are reading this (and there are few of you) know that you really do mean a lot to me. Whether I've known you since middle school, high school, or first semester I'm just so glad to say that you're part of my life.
Now Lex's baby wasn't the only bomb dropped on me. Elena called right after I talked to Lex to tell me that she was coming to Tucson this weekend! And come she did!! All of the people down here in T-town got see what one of kevin's non-theatre related friends is like. My favorite thing was that everyone was so comfortable with her being here. Having her here was like the BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSTTTTTTTTTT OF BBBBOOOOOOOOOTH WOOOOORLDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The rest of this week was crazy and all over the place but very nice. Except for the fact that its getting hot again..watch yourself Tucson because I am in NO mood to start sweating just from being outside.
I'm going to sign off with a conversation I heard tonight
"Where's the raisin they're always talking about? I think it was left in the sun..."
"Oh you mean the one that's purple"

A New World...Never Updates Its Blog
Well its certainly been a long time since I updated. Its one of those things where I keep thinking I'm going to do it then I forget. You know like homework or a love life. Anyways I think this works out because now that spring break is over and I've been back in Arizona for a few weeks I can really see that stand out moments. Did that makes sense...I dunno. Anyways this is going to be a kind of lengthy entry so if you don't really have time I suggest doing whatever you have to do first and then coming back when you can seriously commit (its of like when I call you on the phone..according to Rebecca)
So! Michelle and I went to Disneyland with an assortment of fun people from school and it was SO much fun. It was a long over due trip and long over due time getting to know people that I am around all the time. YAY getting to know people. On a more serious disneyland note..
Fuck the fucking teacups
Molly expressed serious interest in spinning away and so we appeased her. Let it be known the a majority of the group bailed out and it slimmed down to Angela, Molly, Brian, and myself crammed into one small cup that we chose solely because it had formly been occupied by a very attractive person.
2 dizzying minutes later I swore that I will never ride those stupid teacups ever again! I love disneyland and it can do no wrong...but those cursed cups are far from right
The morning after Disneyland I climbed into Darin's suburban and started a long journey to UC Berkeley to visit friends/power couple Pat and Elena. Berkeley is a charming city with not so charming homeless people. In fact a golden moment was when I was on the phone with someone being sad that Tucson is so....Tucson when suddenly I noticed a crazy homeless person being arrested next to me and I thought...hey...Tucson isn't all bad.
What spoke to me the most in Berkeley were the people living in trees. I dunno their sense of dedication and their scent of B.O. really make me consider what I hold sacred enough to protest like that. I realize that there is nothing I would live in a tree for months for and thus it is right that I go to UA not UCB.
Thursday we took a fun adventure to SF and it was amazing!! Not to get all sappy but I must say that this day was my favorite of my days on spring break. The wonderful scenery with people that I never get to see but I love so much really made an amazing memory. PLUS THERE WERE REALLY CUTE PENGUINS

My trip to home to California was really very nice and totally needed break from the hustle and bustle of school.
Coming back to school was....just great. I got back and it was WHAM WHAM WHAM!! with lots of fun things to get done. I guess its kind of calmed down since but I'm anxiously awaiting summer. Especially because we'll be out of Arizona before it gets too hot.
Finally, I must discuss the Julie Andrews controversy in my life right now. Julie Andrews is going to be signing her book in Disneyland next week, a once in a lifetime opportunity to meet the closest thing to perfect the Earth has seen since Jesus. After lots of encouragement from Alexis I looked into plane tickets and saw that they were a steel at only 57 dollars a ticket. A moment of haze, excitement, and debit card weilding, I purchased plane tickets to fly home monday night and then fly back tuesday night. Its all worked out. I fly there, Lex picks me up. I spend the night with her. We go to Disneyland. My life is changed when I meet Julie Andrews. We drive to the airport. I fly back to Arizona. The end. Its also perfect because its on a Tuesday and I have no classes on Tuesdays. Anyways I waited a couple days to break it to my mom. When I finally did I explained that everything was taken care of and it was a total bargain. She was unsure at first and then seemed content that she was in no way affected. THAT IS UNTIL..
She sat and thought about it. I later recieved to voice mail messages warning me of the consequences of this plan. "I wish I had that kind of money" "It just seems frivilous for a college student to fly somewhere for a day" "I don't have money to supply you when you need it for something serious". Well...perhaps money would be more available if...well I'm not going to say it. I'll just say that alcohol isn't exactly cheap...and leave it at that.
So thats about everything going on at the moment. I'll try to remember to check in more often...if anyone even reads this anymore.
PS I'm not proof reading this so if there are any spelling errors..get over it
