The grass is always greener on the other side

I do believe that it's easy to get stuck in the thought that the grass is always greener on the other side, I'm not sure what that means, but I've had a lot of situations out here in Los Angeles, they never seem to be perfect, there is always someone or something just not quite right, it's easy to say to yourself if I could just change my situation it would be better. But I'm starting to think that's not true, like anyone else, just because you move into a new situation doesn't mean that your problems don't follow you. I think I keep waiting for me or my situation to be perfect and I'm finding that will never happen, your always going to have faults or problems but you have to be ok with yourself, and you have to be ready, because the mothership could call at anytime. I don't necessarily have a really great plan yet too triumph this yet, but I think by starting off, I can just make a choice to be happier and less worried, to be appreciative of what I have.. I've been thinking about education lately, I know that I must keep educating myself, I have to take hold of the life that truly is life, it won't be easy.. Thanks blog, goodnight.

Late blog

I won't promise a coherent train of thought. This is a late blog. I feel like I have been trying to predict what is going to happen a little too much instead of just living life, with that said, I'm doin alright. I'm makin good of a situation. A guy told me I reminded him of Jon Belisha today that was cool. Not too much too report, worked on a commercial today had a couple other auditions this week. Im thinkin about getting back in class, stay in touch. Peace.

Barnes and noble

I am writing this right now at a Barnes and Noble which is located at the grove. I came here to see the new Wes Anderson Movie the grand Budapest hotel. They are not playing it here. The last two weeks I have written some scenes for a short film I want to make. The script comes first, I know a few people that have cameras, and actors of course. I need to keep reaching out. I saw QT director of pulp fiction and django and many other great films at amoeba yesterday, that was cool. I think I might watch pulp fiction  tonight. It's a good week to get stuff done, wake up early get going, make the most of it, I found a footon that hopefully we can get in our apartment soon.  I  am thinking of locations for the film, it could involve golfing and bowling potentially, and just buddies hanging out, hopefully it can become a type of buddy film. I will try and keep the blogging up even if they are just short entries, I am not using Facebook or twitter this month. Until next time, dude.

Mo

Hello blog. I am in tonight, I had an audition and worked out today. I prepared a lot of the day for the audition, did my thing had a great time and got out of there. Yesterday I also did a on camera open call submission. It's been a good week been eating well and blah blah blah. Realizing that it is time to move on from something, want more detail? Ok but it will be abstract. I have realized that a certain way of life that I had is over, not literally over, but it is definitely time for a new chapter. I have to actively pursue my life basically, and that's a good thing. I will report back but I think I need a little more intentional planning to help myself get out there, and it will bee good, alrighty then, next time!

Mid day blog

A quick midway blog what the heck why not.  I actually dont have a lot to report, tomorrow i have an audition for a student film.  I am curious how useful this blog really is, i dont think its useless, but I think it may need some redirection.  I know a lot of people dont read my blogs, but its something about putting something out on the internet where everyone can see it that is just kind of strange.  I think the blog should either start to become a collection of stories, or just a way for me to simply report news, which is what I kind of do I guess, or even just to talk about process, but more specificly about what it is Ive done rather than what I may or may not do.  Im not sure Im making any sense.  It is a beautiful day in Los Angeles, California.  Today I have been writing, also I was drinking coffee for about the first time in a week.  Ive got other plans as well.  I believe I will hit the gym, get on the eliptical machine, thats kind of my thing lately, followed by about 5 or 6 lifts, then hit the sauna.  I would like to start reading a little bit more, some options I have are to dip into Hamlet, Death of a Salesman, and the new book my Uncle Mike wrote that he sent me.  I was reading backstage there are really some great articles today, theres usually one or two good ones everyday but I would say today they are more exceptional, I think its because they are more about process as oppossed to articles that are titled, How to become the best actor ever!  Ok, thats not really a title of any of them, but you get the point, there more practical, applicable, take it with a grain of salt and move on, maybe take an idea or two.  Thats one thing I think I can do more of, I am in that school of thought where I never believe there is a certain way, or one way to do things, but just because I think that doesnt mean I cant take a little bit of something from everything.  Become a self educated man, whos open to learning with a healthy dose of skepticism.  Alright, back to my day, studying, lifting, writing all that good stuff.  Until next time.

Hamlet

I'm going to do a quick blog, I will attempt to write some things I usually don't. Sort of, will see, let's go. I threw a party at my house I had been drinking quite a bit, towards the end of the night when the party waned down I got on Facebook and had a personal message chat with my high school friend Pete Nelson. I quoted Friday night lights as did he, then he asked how I was doing. I said I had new agents, they were better than my old agents and I've gotten into some good rooms and stuff. I also told him what I'm learning is that it is all about hustle and all the big wigs out here don't means shit, if you don't believe in yourself or make work for yourself than you've got nothing. He said when then you will dominate because you are a man of hustle. It's true, I need to continue to hustle. I watched the Oscars last night I really liked all the speeches but especially matthew mccanueghays. I'm not gonna re write it, go watch it on YouTube if you want. Also speaking of hustle I can hear through the walls, my neighbors who we heard fighting not long ago are watching American hustle I can't hear what anyone's saying I can just tell when music plays because I know the soundtrack well. I had an argument with my roommate a week ago, I saw a trainer and a member of the gym I go to almost get into a brawl today and then when I came home my neighbors were yelling. What the heck going on, people fight I guess, but it's important to remember to fight the right battles, I have been watching sons of anarchy which my uncle mike said is based in Hamlet, to be or not to be that is the question, until next time, peace.
