I Don't Know Man I'm Trying

I got some pretty awesome presents. I got five sketch books of assorted sizes, awesome erasers (like rubber ones, plastic, and a molding one), and some Prisma Color Pencils! 8D I also got guitar strings (8D), an awesome video camera that records in HD and shtuffs, The Hunger Games, another book I can't remember the name of, a robe, a 2011 Calander (Broadway Themed), an electric pencil sharper, candles... other... stuff... I can't remember... BUT IT WAS AWESOME! What did you guys get? Sam.

So right now it's about nine o'clock on Christmas Eve. I'm pretty excited for Christmas because my family got some awesome presents from me and I also like presents. A lot. I'm a present whore. So at about ten fifteen tonight my mom and I are going to leave to go to church and we'll get back around twelve thirty or one or so and we'll open one present. Then we all go to "sleep" (I put it in quotes because I probably won't get any sleep and it'll be longest four hours of my life... ever.) and I will proceed to wake EVERYONE up at five o'clock in the morning and we will start the stocking and present opening shindig hopefully starting with my brother, father, and mother opening my presents. It'll go youngest (me) to the oldest (my father) so I'll open some other present or something. I love presents so much BECAUSE I AM A PRESENT WHORE! I am. I need to go to a Present Whore's Anonymous meeting or something for how whore-like I am ...

-coughcoughcoughcoughcoughcoughcoughcoughcoughcoughcoughcoughcoughcoughcoughcough- That ^ is basically how my day has been. I'll speak, or at least try to, and the coughing is like "NO BITCH!" and slaps me across my throat. I do not enjoy it. Besides death by cough I am watching the Vlogbrothers Project for Awesome show thing on the p4a channel on YouTube. It is beautiful. I also broke a string on my acoustic guitar and I DON'T HAVE ANOTHER STRING FOR IT D8 YAY! Sam.

I guess you could say I finished the book? I read the last few pages so I could understand what had happened but I stopped reading about page 100 and skipped to the end. The book basically said the same things over and over again in slightly warped ways and it was getting old. I decided that I didn't like the book as well. SO HA!

And if you deny it, I'll pwn you in the face with a monkey. I read a lot of books (a lot by my standard) and lately, the rate at which I read books has gone from fast to a trickle. I have been reading the book The Road by Cormac McCarthy for about three months now. It's a good book and it's only 287 pages long, but I just can't read. I have the time to read, but I spend it on the computer. It seems as if lately the internet has controlled my life so much that I can't find the time to do things that I actually want to do. I haven't drawn anything good in a really long time. I haven't played any video games or read any books or done anything that didn't involve the internet for a very long time. So I've been thinking, once I finish this semester of school, I am going to finish reading The Road and then once that is done I will go on the computer and do internet stuff. If I can stand being off the internet for as long as it takes me. After I read the b...

I really wish that when I'm in my car and I'm listening to the radio that songs that I actually want to hear come on more often or when I'm actually in the car... Now I'm not that picky of a person when it comes to music, I'll listen to anything at least once, but there are a few things that I don't need to hear when I'm trying to listen to something. One is ten million cuss words like rappers use. I don't care if people cuss but because my mom is a bit psycho and she makes me buy "clean" songs on iTunes and when I listen to a song and every other word is bleeped or empty space, it just isn't worth the money. I don't listen to much rap anyway, in fact I only listen to Eminem and a few of Akon's songs and such, but when I am listening to a song that isn't rap and it bleeps it I get a little pissed off. I hate censoring and such useless nonsense. If you don't wanna hear it, don't listen to it. The second thing is people th...

DRAW A CIRCLE THAT'S THE EARTH! DRAW A CIRCLE THAT'S THE EARTH, I'M HETALIA! I am in LOVE with Hetalia: Axis Powers and I am only on episode 26. I am in love so deep that if cut off at the source I might cry... I must finish watching these videos, but why am I wasting time here? I dunno, but I am pretty sure my favorite is either France or Switzerland because both are freaking hilarious. In other business, I bombed the test I took in my physics class today (I think that's what my mom said) and I am a little upset, but I've come to a point where I just don't care. It's like senioritus except for the fact that I'm a junior. I now have a 75% in that class SO I MUST BRING IT UP! Or I won't get to go to a college I want... My mom and my teacher are also still trying to convince everyone and their brother that's it's best for me to take Algebra II but I say screw it because I'm putting balls to the wall next semester. I will pass that class. ...

Well, I hate high school. It might just be the high school I go to because everyone else I talk to quite enjoys high school. It's not my friends, because they're awesome, it's not my classes, because I have some pretty cool classes, and it's not most of my teachers. Most. There is just one that I wish to never ever be in his class again but the sad fact is that I have another class with him next semester and as much as I hate it I need to take that class. I admit that the teacher is a pretty nice guy but his teaching style doesn't match the way I learn and that results in me constantly not paying attention to him or the material he is trying to teach and never wanting to talk to him about what I missed while I wasn't paying attention. He is a good teacher but he is extremely boring and I do not wish to have another class with him. DO NOT WANT. I also don't think that math has that much to do with what I want to major in, at least not the math class that I a...

That song is beautiful and I quite enjoy listening to it. Let us see what has happened since my last post... I had a beautiful weekend at Arizona Thespian Festival in which I had to moan several times when I lost the Burping Color Game thing (when someone burps you have to say a color and the last person to say a color has to moan) and my moaning became quite good. Two out of four times I ate food I had pizza, the other times I had a lunch that wasn't worth the price and that was totally messed up, and the other one was a gross veggie wrap with delicious chips, a cookie and juice. I don't know why they have to give vegetarians wraps because we can just as easily have cheese sammiches. SIGH. Thespians like to make things so complicated but who would we be without our complications? ;D I wanna vent about the lunch that wasn't worth the price I payed because it honestly really ticked me off. So for the last two Thespian Festivals, not including this one, I went to this restaur...

Procrastination runs in my blood and it's how I get my best papers done. I like to put it off (even if the teacher gave us the assignment a week ago and extended it to where it was due tomorrow instead of today and I still haven't started it. I find it hard to write passionately on things that I don't feel I should have feelings on. I don't know how to feel about the assignment because we are dissecting the characters instincts. It's a brilliantly planned assignment in which we read Lorraine Hansberry's play A Raisin in the Sun and write about their instincts using the Kolbe Index. Like Walter Lee is a quick start because he does things whithout thinking or making sure it's secure. He gave his son fifty cents for school and then gave him another fifty cents to show his wife that it wasn't okay for her to tell their son they don't have money. He then needed the extra money he had given to his son to get to work. He gave his son money without thinking...

That is what today was. I sat at the computer all day and wrote and listened to music and watched Julian Smith on youtube. I just did a plethora of nothing. It was terrible. I looked up some songs that I would consider playing on guitar and then printed the ones that I could actually play so I can learn them. I wrote a bit of my Christmas list for my mom and watched a little bit of LA Ink which has changed a butt load since the last time I watched. I don't think I plan on watching anymore episodes because it has honestly just turned into 'scandal' and such stupidity that it doesn't seem like it's worth it for the film crew to be there. Everyone that's on that show is only doing it so the world knows their problems. I just don't understand it anymore. I have over 11000 words written for NaNoWriMo! Did I mention I was participating in that? I don't remember if I did or not. I participated last year but I only made it to about 2000 words out of 50000 and I ...

AHHHHHH! Anywho... so I am participating in NaNoWriMo and I'm doing pretty well. I've got almost ten thousands words and it's only five days in! I am so excited that I have no idea what to do right now. I've been thinking of recording a cover of some song that I can easily play... Maybe something like Wagon Wheel by Old Crow Medicine Show or Hallelujah the Rufus Wainwright version or Closing Time by Semisonic... One of those. I'll probably work on that when I'm done typing this. After that I might draw a bit or write a little more for NaNoWriMo... or play video games... I can't decide. Maybe I'll just chillax and watch some YouTube videos or TV or something... Not a lot has happened since yesterday except maybe for the fact that it took me so long to get to sleep last night and I failed a Physics test. My mom was pissed that I got such a crappy grade on that test (I got 46%) and I was mad at myself. The bad part is that every time I ask the teacher for...

Here's an introduction to the wonderful life of Sam! I am a choir kid, a theatre kid (a techie), an English lover (though my writing skills need work), and a math despiser. I have been a part of every high school production my school has put on since my freshman year (I am a junior now) and for each and every one of those shows I was a techie. I went from being part of prop crew to costume and make-up to assistant stage manager to the stage manager. I hope my stage managing career will continue because even though I yell and threaten a lot I honestly love that job. If my school ever did a musical I would consider stepping out of the dark and into the light of the stage because even if my acting skills aren't that great my singing is pretty good. I would probably never take the actual step though because I have a massive amount of stage fright. I would also probably forget my lines because my memory is terrible. On to choir things! I am in my second year of choir! Sort of. I joi...
