...And it just got better.

It's funny the curveballs life will throw at you, especially when it's even better fortune than what you've had before. A good kind of funny, though.

First of all, in Drama... I GOT CAST. As it turns out, callbacks went pretty damn well. The next day, I went to my Acting I class, and one of my classmates came up to me to tell me "Congratulations". I looked at him, rather confused. Then he told me that it was the casting, but wouldn't tell me anything more to ruin the surprise. So I sat uncomfortably through the entire class before practically sprinting across campus to the Performing Arts Center. As it turns out, I was cast as William Page, a schoolboy. The role does not have much stage time, but I'm still glad to be a part of the cast, especially since there were about 100 people that auditioned. For those who can make it, Merry Wives of Windsor will be performing December 2-6 this year.

I got a little special gift from Karma when I headed to my stagecraft class last Thursday. I put in two dollars to get a drink... and three bucks in quarters spat out.

And finally, even though I had talked a lot about Kelcie in the last post, life steered me in a completely different direction by the end of the week. We still remain friends, though. I think.
On Friday, I got this invitation on Facebook to go to a movie. One of my "friends" on there who I didn't really know was sending it out, just to a group of her own friends. The movie was "Burn After Reading", which I had really wanted to see anyways. So I went with her and one other friend. The movie was absolutely hilarious, from start to finish (And apparently Missoula really goes nuts for JK Simmons, much in the way that Germans love David Hasselhoff). We hung out for a little bit afterwards, playing some intense rounds of ping-pong. And then the night was over.
The next day, she texted me, asking if I wanted to hang out for a bit. So we did. We had dinner, then went up to her room (Right next to Jayme's room in Knowles, oddly enough, which is right next to Sarah and Cassie's room), got lost in conversation, then watched Monty Python's Life of Brian. Somewhere in the middle of it all, we started to hold hands. And then after the movie was over... we kissed.

So we've hung out every day since then. Watching movies, or just walking around and telling stories.

Her name's Jessica. And she's now my girlfriend.
