Conference Month_02

That's it

That’s it.

I’m updating my blog.

There is so much I want to talk about and so much that I need to do.

I’ve been working on papers while still having fun at college.

I want to talk about the shooting in Connecticut, and about my trip into the city today.

I want to talk about this really cool blind-folded poetry reading I’m going to this week, and I want to talk about the radio show reading of “A Christmas Carol” that I went to tonight.

In my acting class, we have an exercise called: I feel, I want, I need.

I think I’ll use that structure for today’s blog.

I feel:

I feel exhausted.

I feel like I have nothing left to give.

I feel excited about my dinner with my friends tomorrow.

I feel shocked.

I feel lost.

I feel exhilarated.

I feel like I’m all closed in.

I feel overwhelmed.

I feel grateful

I want:

I want to be home.

I want to concentrate.

I want to show my sympathies for families who lost children in this week’s school shooting.

I want to cry, and to laugh, and to be held.

I want to see my sister.

I want a hug.

I want to paint my nails green.

I want to clean my room.

I want to run around.

I want to laugh.

I need:

I need to calm down.

I need to relax.

I need to concentrate.

I need to write.

I need to show how much I love everyone.

I need to reach out to my loved ones.

I need to show how much I appreciate life.

This is very interesting because I usually put very little down in the area of “I need.”

However, after this week, I feel like there is so much that I need to do.

I am working, and procrastinating, and I am going to get everything done.

I’ve started doing a photo of the day, so feel free to submit any awesome photos to: todayisawesomeemail@gmail.com

I hope you are all safe and sound.

I love you all so much and thank you for taking the time to read my blog even though it’s late.
