There once was a pile of poo,

He didn't know what to do;

He lay there until:

Along came Bill,

And stuck up under his shoe.

Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween everybody.

I've recently had to pull a couple all-nighters in a row with one of my good friends, working on a pitch production packet to potentially win $10,000 to make a script I wrote into a film. Lotta work and I've got about 4 or 5 hours of sleep in the past 2 days, but it's cool. You only live once, right? That's what I keep trying to tell myself.

Does anybody else wish they just had more time? Like seriously. This whole semester I've been working non-stop on projects and, I don't know, it gets tiring after awhile. Sometimes you just want to hang out with people. Do nothing and talk to people and just get to know them without having anything to do afterwards. But hey, there ain't too much time for that anymore these days, is there?

A Memory

A memory I've recently remembered for a number of different reasons. Excuse the profanity, it was cold.

The Epic Adventures of a Boy and His Snowman

This is my first official post ever, on my first official blog ever, serving as my first official pseudo-journal ever. I'd have to say, it's pretty anti-climactic and, I'll be honest, I have no clue whether or not I'll actually keep this up. Probably not. But hey, what the heck, eh?

I started this blog for a bunch of different reasons. Mostly it's so that I could share the stories I've written and the thoughts I've thunk to whomever is reading this out in cyberspace. I don't know who you are, or if anyone is reading this in the first place (maybe these are just useless utterances into a vacuum), but hey, does it really matter in the end? As long as I think somebody's actually reading this, I'll feel good.

You're probably wondering why I have so many pictures of snowmen on here. Ehhh... you'll probably figure it out eventually.

I'll give you a hint though.

It's not just because they're frickin' awesome.
