Living With L.A.Ws

Hey World,

Here is the research as promised, on Dennis Rodman.

Dennis Rodman was born in Trenton, New Jersey, on May 13, 1961. His father, Philander, would end up deserting the family when Rodman was only three, leaving his mother Shirley to try to raise her son and his two younger sisters without a father figure. As a kid, Rodman played sports, but given his small size, there was nothing fantastic about his athletic childhood. As Rodman often says, he was just regular.
When Rodman graduated from high school, he was only five foot eleven, and had failed, throughout four years, to make the varsity basketball squad. He couldn't find a place to fit in, and bounced from job to job. At one point he worked as a janitor for the Dallas-Fort Worth Airport, and on a dare from a friend, stuck the handle from his mop through a gift shop grate and stole fifteen watches. According to Mark Seal in Playboy, "he was arrested, jailed for a night and released after he told the cops where the watches were." The incident passed, but it contributed to the problems Rodman was having with his slacker lifestyle. The arrest infuriated his mother, who was tired of her son's inability to grow up. She threatened Rodman with an ultimatum. He had a choice: he could go to college, find another job, or, following in the footsteps of his father, enter the military. Rodman didn't choose. Getting no response, his mother packed his bags and kicked him out of the house.

Hey World,

Today was the day where I verified my tragic monologue character, for my final exam. The students in Mrs. Thomas' Acting Academy each had to come up with a famous person with a tragic life, and then create a monologue retelling their story.

And of course, I have to end the year with a bang. So, it's only obvious that I do the infamous Dennis Rodman! This ever changing hair coloured rebel is a very interesting celebrity with a deep background story to show for it.

I will post more information about Dennis Rodman in future blogs as I research more about him. All I know is that, I am hoping for the best and I smell a pen throw coming. And that's my L.A.W

Hey world,

I must say that I was truly blessed today. I had the privilege to see a fine group of grade 10 students present monologues for their Acting For T.V & Film class. I've been working with these kids for the past few months now, and it was so remarkable to see their individual growths.

They have learned so much from their amazing teacher, and today it showed. Their song choices were on point, their costuming was tried for, and they had such strong characterizations. I am just in awe, they are such a terrific class, and I wish each and every one of them the best on their future endeavours.

These children are our future, they are strong, and the older generation needs to invest in them and invest in us. The media and society says the youth is corrupted nowadays, but it doesn't have to be that way. We as individuals need to change our mentality and be extremely optimistic.

We need to Believe...and that's my L.A.W

I leave you with this song, I hope it inspires you

Hey world,

As you can see above, this is the pitch for the next Mortal Kombat Movie: Mortal Kombat Rebirth. Mortal Kombat is my favourite video game franchise ever! I've been a fan of this series for 12 years. I love the fantasy aspect, and it has intense characters that build to its deep storyline.

Anywho, 2 years ago it seemed that Mortal Kombat came to its "FATALITY", because Midway became bankrupt. I was devastated after hearing this information, I was ready to just give up on gaming in general. However, today I discovered that some one was working on a possible Mortal Kombat Movie for the future. What's interesting is that, Warner Bros is the new franchise in charge of MK, and they took an interesting spin on the series. The storyline has been altered, and things are more dark/gruesome, which is fine with me.

At the end of the day I am just glad that MK has been reborn. God is truly good to me, and that's my L.A.W.

Hey world,

Glee was outstanding tonight! Absolutely spectacular. It met my expectations in so many levels. More to come

Hey world,

It's been a while since I posted my last blog. Here's just an update of what's going on:

I was casted in F.M.S.S'Mainstage Production and my show is next week
I am heading to Los Angeles the week after my performance,
and I am currently balancing work at wonderland on top of all of this.

Hey world,

Today I realized how much I love Glee. I was having a great day, because I changed my hair and got a lot of compliments from several people. To add to my morale boost, expert fashion consultants came to our acting academy to give each student individual advice/tips. I was graciously complimented and told that I was a perfect 10, and had a rectangular shape (Which is a good thing). So my day was starting off uber awesome.

However, it was during the end of the day that ruined things for me. Rehearsals were a disaster because of the whole photoshoot drama. THESE PEOPLE MADE ME GO LAST! Ugh, I was definitely upset. And they clearly know me to be a "Divo", so then why in GOD's name would you put me to go last. Anywho, when I went last, the makeup artist said she had to rush out, so she didn't get to do me properly like the other 11 cast members. I think God was testing me. Anyway, I didn't really like any of my photos from the photoshoot, so today was definitely a bust because of the inconsideration of others.

HOWEVER, upon arriving home, I got hmwk out of the way, took a nice long shower, and watched my favourite T.V show Glee. IT CHANGED MY DAY. The episode was so amazing. I was smiling throughout. I mean, it was absolutely brilliant. I SWEAR TO YOU I CRIED TEARS OF JOY. I don't know what's wrong with me, I thought for a split second I was mentally ill, or my hormones were acting up; but the reason behind those tears, was my deep love for Glee.

GOD BLESS the director/creator/screenwrite/ and actors of glee. Glee isn't just a comedy, it is a comforter, and that's my L.A.W
