Bummed out

Yes Im in a little bit of a rut right now. My friends and I have been trying to plan a weekend at one of our friends cottages on a local lake this summer for all of us to hang out. Today I heard the date that had been decided on, and it turns out that two of us (one being me) cant make it for one reason or anouther. It kinda sucks. Last summer we did one of these, but I was the only one who couldnt make it. Yeah...so im really bummed out right now. I know they arent trying to leave me out, but it sucks when you seem to be the only one who cant ever make it to the summer get together.

I guess part of the reason im so bummed is that going to a local community college that everyone commutes too makes it hard to make new friends. That and seeing most of your closest friends go away to college has made me wounder who i am, and who i was meant to be. In the past year or so I started realizing that I can write. My dad has said that i cant count on ever being published. I havent given up on that chance yet though. There are people I know who have read the screenplay Ive written and loved it. The stories and screenplays I have written and am writing seem to be the only things I've got right now too hold on to. They're the only things I've found that wont disapear.

Wow...

It's been a while since I posted. Since my last post, my brother graduated from High School, grandparents came and left, VBS at church happened, the minor leauge single A all star game happened, and the power chord for my laptop died. I just got a new power chord today, and I'm so excited that I am now able to charge my laptop, which was out of battery, and actually use it again!!!
I've got a surprise planned for my parents and brother while they are in wisconsin. AKA I have a few games while they are over there, so after the last game of the stand, I will go over to see them and grandparents as a fun surprise. I've told my brother what is going happen, so he knows.

Update

I feel like I havent blogged in forever! It's been a while, but Im still alive and kicking. The past week has been chaos with lots of baseball games to work. Last night I set up a BlogTV account for myself so that i would have anouther way to keep in contact with people (even the ones I dont know too well!). If you go to BlogTV and search ppmusic2006 you'll find me. I've got shows planned for June 20 at 1PM EST and 7PM EST, and July 4 at noon EST and 10PM EST. You dont have to have an account with blog tv to be able to watch or chat, so dont run away because you dont want an account. I'll try to post here again a day or so before the shows so people wont forget.

My days of Jello have returned.

Do you remember the days when you loved jello, grilled cheese and tomato soup for lunch? Those days have returned for me. My younger brother dislocated his shoulder several weeks ago. On Tuesday, May 20, he had surgery to repair a small tear in the cartilage. The past two days he has spent at home, and each day he has slowley gotten better. Yesterday he only felt lik eating a little bit of bread, lots of water, some jello, and some soup. Yesterday he puked all over his front because of the vicotin. Today he hasn't had any pain, and hasnt had any need for the vicotin which is great! Today he was able to drink a ton of water, eat some jello, some toast, soup, and some sprite. I just ate some jello for dinner before I leave for the Loons game (since I am working for the loons in food service.

Flops, screenplays, work, and concert series.

The whole blog a day thing hasnt worked out. I guess you could say I got lazy about posting. I don't know if I will ever post a blog every day...so dont expect it.

Screenplay update:
The first one is done, and I am still in the midst of writing the first six scenes of the second one. THis time I think Im writing a lot slower simply because things are more complex in the second one, so Im makinging sure i get everything right.

As for working for the loons, things have been slow where I have been working, but that is perfectly fine! We do have a game tonight despite the rainy weather, and Nick hasnt called me back. Thats weird. He usually calls me back. Thats okay, Ill see him tonight at work.

In other news, I am organizing a concert series here in Mid-Michigan. I need composers and vocalists that want to be featured in the concert series. There will be one concert a month, on a monday evening somewhere in the Mid-Michigan area. I seriously need vocalists!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If your interusted, then please e-mail me at MNNVmidland@yahoo.com and I'll get back to you withing 24 hours. I could care less about where your from, as long as you want to sing. So PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE get ahold of me ASAP if you want to be apart the the concert series. There will be five vocalists and one composer featured at each concert, I still dont have enough people for the first concert, so you might have a chance at being apart of the first one the sooner you get ahold of me!
