//my free annual pass
now that i finally got my work id (it's so weird calling it work)...it's also my free annual pass to any disney park...and i think that's cool.

i should have had my id last saturday, but, the id center made a mistake because my picture wasn't on file...so they put some girl's picture on my id. kinda funny...actually, really funny at the time. but, i re-took the id pic, and got the thing yesterday.

but, yeah...now i don't have to wait for my dad to sign me in anymore...and i don't have to pay for parking anymore. eating at disney restaurants won't be as expensive (thank goodness)...but, churros will be the same price (oh well...at cast member parties they'll be cheaper).

and, no, i cannot sign people in yet. i'm on a probationary period, after that passes, i'll have 16 opportunities to do sign-ins...that's right, only 16--so treat me NICE!!!--unless you already have an annual pass, then you can be an ass-hole to me all you want.

//old-school flashback
there was an infamous list of certain items pertaining to me that i had published in my old free open diary. i decided to share it with the rest of you, since it has brought laughs to those who know about it...mind you, some will claim that the list has grown...but, i've also appended reasons why some of the items are not true. so...without further ado...

peoples' justifications for thinking i'm gay
1. i'm the president of choir.
--(yeah, i was president of choir my senior year of high school)

2. i'm on thespian board.
--(true, i was also on thespian/drama club board last year)

3. i was just informed that the gel i use has glitter in it.
--(the gel i use now also has glitter in it...bed head rocks!)

4. i dress well.
--(i used to wear sweater vests, a lot, last year...but, i've ditched them since)

5. i hooked-up with a girl who has a reputation for "turning" guys gay.
--(...no comment.)

6. i'm in show choir.
--(yes, i was in show choir...but, so were a lot of jocks...who pissed me off a lot)

7. i sing.
--(and hell yeah i still sing...but, more emo/punk now.)

8. i dance.
--(hip-hop damn you...hip-hop!)

9. i shop gap.
--(i don't dig their fashion line anymore...i've gone to hollister co. and a&f now.)

10. i know how to apply my own make up.
--(damnit, as an actor, you've got to know how to do that. still not a good excuse, huh?)

11. i spend a good hour to "get ready" in the morning, most of my time picking out my outfits and doing my hair.
--(that was when i did liberty spikes--yes, with preppy clothing--but, i've stopped doing that. picking out outfits is easier...jeans and a t-shirt? jeans and a polo?...)

12. i have been seen to wear a skirt on two rare occasions (one of which was halloween a long time ago).
--(guilty as charged...i think it's like, three or four now.)

13. i walked around the cafeteria with a glittery vest one rare monday.
--(well...shit.)

14. people think that my best guy friend is gay too.
--(yeah...people thought that josh was gay...that's funny.)

15. i just bitched out one of my chick friends for messing up my hair...and i'm about to bitch her out again for rubbing the gel off onto my sweater.
--(and i'll still bitch people out of messing with my hair, damnit.)

16. i'm a songwriter.
--(punk/emo damnit! punk/emo now!)

17. i write poetry.
--(so? shakespeare did too! no one accuses him of being gay...oh, wait. shit.)

18. one of my favorite musical artists is macy gray.
--(hell yeah.)

19. one of my favorite musical artists is prince (or formerly known as, whatever).
--(once again: hell yeah.)

alright...but, i've changed a bit since february 16, 2002...a lot, really. but...hey, it's fun...i'm just glad i've "forgotten" the rest of the reasons that have popped up since then...i think the list, because people had kept tabs since then, had grown to, like, 40+ with appendages.

i'm actually proud of all those things that aroused misconceptions...because those things were/are uniquely me...even if i didn't act like i appreciated them.

it's funny. it's a way for people to remember me. i enjoy it. it was one of those shining moments from my senior year in drama.

you can either walk away with all the bad and horrible memories, or stay thinking about that one shining moment.

laugh and love and happy afternoons
watching tv from your room while you're laying in my arms
and i know it's not fair to me to see this love walk right by me every day
will we ever meet the right way?
