In less than 2 days, I will be attempting to write a 50,000 word novel in the month of November. This is my first time participating in the NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month).
In order to write 50k words in 30 days, I’d have to write a minimum of 1,667 words per day. You might think [...]

So, for the past couple of rehearsals, we’ve been working mostly on scene two. And I’m not in scene two at all. So that means I get to take it easy, rest well, get more sleep, and prepare myself for the next rehearsal.
Honestly, I don’t miss acting that much. But I do miss the rehearsals, [...]

Sadness and stress. Those two words seem to surround my life this semester. And they usually go hand in hand. The more stress I have the sadder I become. The sadder I become the stress increases even more. There’s no way to end the cycle! Ridiculous!
I have friends who are in the same boat, too. [...]
What Am I Doing Here?

Lots of questions swimming in my head. And I know I won’t be able to address them all in one sitting, plus I’ve already forgotten some of the questions that I was going to discuss.
I visit PostSecret every Sunday sometimes for inspiration and sometimes to get a laugh at the secrets that are revealed on anonymous postcards. [...]

I don’t think I’ve ever mentioned why I am so excited to be part of the Directing Projects this semester even though I’m taking 5 classes —2 of them theory / reading & writing-intensive, which is part of the reason this past week has been really rough. First, I am having a hard time finishing [...]

So tomorrow (Saturday, Oct.24th) we will hit the 1 full week of rehearsal mark. Time sure flies. 6 days into rehearsal, I am still discovering things as Petra the servant.
Every time I go on stage I feel different. Every time I go on stage I try to remember all that I have to think about [...]

So this weekend marks my first ever rehearsals as an actor (as opposed to being a stage manager or some production thing). What is it like / how do I feel, you ask?
Well, first and foremost… exciting and scary at the same time. Exciting because I finally get to see what it’s like on the [...]
A Recollection of Dreams

PART ONE
————————————————————————————————————
This is a documentation of the dreams I’ve had in the past month (they are separate events). Some of them are normal events or events which happened normally; some of them don’t make any sense at all, and then there are some which are beyond bewildering. And if your name is mentioned, know that [...]

…I think I should have the decency to at least take the time to thank my readers. I appreciate the care and thought you put into our friendship by visiting and understanding (or not) somewhat the inner philosophical part of me.
I appreciate your patience as you bare with me through countless nights of rants and randomness that [...]
