You're so damn beautiful

I've never seen it, I found this love, I'm gonna feed it
You better believe, I'm gonna treat it better than anything I've ever had
Cause you're so damn beautiful

At the Begining with You

We were strangers
On a crazy adventure
Never dreaming
How our dreams would come true
Now here we stand
Unafraid of the future
At the beginning with you

I Just Wanna Sing a Song With You

Blue Eyes

by Cary Brother

Wish enough, wise man'll tell you a lie
Window broke, torn up screens
Who'd have thought that you'd dream
Of a single tragic scene

I just wanna sing a song with you
I just want to take it off of you

Cause Blue Eyes
You are all that I need
Cause Blue Eyes
You're the sweet to my mean

Fess it up, dot on the palm of your hand
I can help you to stand
Saved it up for this dance
Tell me all the things you can

I just wanna sing a song with you
I just wanna be the one that's true

Cause Blue Eyes
You're the secret I keep
Cause Blue Eyes

All the lights on and you are alive
But you can't point the way to your heart
So sublime, when the stars are aligned
But you don't know
You don't know the greatness you are

Cause Blue Eyes
You are destiny's scene
Cause Blue Eyes
I just wanna be the one

I just wanna sing a song with you
I just wanna get it on with you

Cause Blue Eyes
You're the secret I keep
Cause Blue Eyes
I just wanna sing a song with you
I just wanna sing a song with you
I just wanna sing a song with you...

That tiny thing i've been working on lately...

 

Bar Code

I have, for quite some time now, made more or less of a living working as a bartender. I see a lot of weird things while working in that environment, but it always astonishes me that people don't understand bar etiquette. Simple things, really. Such as...

·         Do not catch the bartender's attention on a busy night only to hesitate when they approach you. If you do not know what you want to order, refrain from approaching the bar. Bartenders are all about speed and will resent you for slowing them down.

·         Do not ask for "what's good". It's alcohol, it's all delicious! If you do not know what you like, how on earth am I supposed to!

·         Do not, under any circumstances, leave change smaller than a dollar. Quarters are acceptable only when they equal a dollar, but they still piss us off. Dimes, nickels and pennies will be thrown back in your face.

·         When ordering your drink during a loud DJ night, keep it simple. I can barely hear you. Do not utter more words than necessary. “Rhum and coke” does it. If you drown your instructions with pleasantries, it all gets muffled into one big confusing sentence.

·         Order the alcohol, than the mixer. “Sprite and Vodka” isn’t a drink. “Vodka 7” is.

·         Open bar, all you can drink or any kind of free alcohol still requires for you to tip. The service was the same, regardless of money exchange. Please respect that.

·         Do not order a drink whose recipe you do not even know. There’s a chance I might not either and when I ask you, you will look like a fool.

·         If ordering a “surprise me”, do not be appalled if your drink gets thrown back in your face with a “SURPRISE!”. I’ve been secretly hoping to do this one…

·         If you want to compliment me, you may. But please refrain from touching me, in any way, unless we have an already established friendship or working relationship. You may think kissing my hand is sweet, but you are a complete stranger and you ain’t the first one who tried.

Blue Eyes

I see your blue eyes
Every time I close mine
You make it hard to see
Where I belong to when I'm not
Around you

Theatre

I've been doing a lot of quotes lately, and not really writing. It's been quite busy.

I actually got a job which would qualify as my dream job, outside of acting. I got to do public relations and marketing for a theatre company. I'm greatly grateful that I had this opportunity to be a part of something I believe in. That I got to contribute to thousands of people enjoying Shakespeare, for free, in a park.

Theatre should be more accessible. It’s not normal that people have to pay more money to go see Shakespeare in a small theatre, produced by a small independent production, than it is for them to go see a crappy blockbuster at ScotiaBank Theatre. A blockbuster that cost millions of dollars to make and which will make millions of dollars back. Theatre companies are not ripping off the public, trust me, I know. They are barely making money, when they do make money at all. But this is the world we live in; a crazy, crazy world, where crappy, drowned entertainment is cheaper than live and exciting performances. Where a trio at MacDonalds is cheaper than broccoli. No wonder the arts are dying.

I wish theatre was like the movies. You could just go to one place and look around at the posters, and pick the representation you wish to see that fits your schedule. “Yeah, let’s go see Hamlet at 7h30 since we clearly missed All My Sons at 7h05”. Then people would walk into these rooms and be witness to live and amazing theatre instead of mass produced, overly glossed, cheap entertainment. Now, don’t get me wrong. I love movies. But I don’t understand why it’s such a standard to go see a movie, and not to go see a play. They are both extraordinary medium, and they both deserve an audience.

No Artist is Pleased

No artist is pleased. There is no satisfaction whatever at any time. There is only a queer, divine dissatisfaction, a blessed unrest that keeps us marching and makes us more alive than the others.

Martha Graham

Life is funny. It's funny how the simplest things can knock us off our feet; the perfect gust of wind, driving down country roads with the windows down, seeing someone you love smile, being where you feel right, skinny dipping at midnight while the moon shines, letters from old friends...and yet, these simple things, remind us why we live.

When I was a little girl I used to read fairy tales. In fairy tales you meet Prince Charming and he's everything you ever wanted. In fairy tales the bad guy is very easy to spot. The bad guy is always wearing a black cape so you always know who he is. Then you grow up and you realize that Prince Charming is not as easy to find as you thought. You realize the bad guy is not wearing a black cape and he's not easy to spot; he's really funny, and he makes you laugh, and he has perfect hair.

Taylor Swift

Success

"The people I consider successful are so because of how they handle their responsibilities to other people, how they approach the future, people who have a full sense of the value of their life and what they want to do with it. I call people successful not because they have money or their business is doing well but because, as human beings, they have a fully developed sense of being alive and engaged in a lifetime task of collaboration with other human beings -- their mothers and fathers, their family, their friends, their loved ones, the friends who are dying, the friends who are being born. Success.. is all about being able to extend love to people... not in a big, capital letter sense but in the everyday. Little by little, task by task, gesture by gesture, word by word." 

- Ralph Fienne

Signs You Are In A Horror Movie

#18 - Signs You Are In A Horror Movie

(From the BrokenChairEssays)

      You'll be fucking a blonde with big tits when the lights go out. This is the first sign.
      The first you'll actually notice anyway. There were others before this, but were the kind of signs only seen with hindsight or in a rear-view mirror.
      Driving in a topless jeep with four other college juniors toward a remote group of cabins by the lake while listening to CCR and smoking weed.
      That was a sign.
      But what's important here though, and I can't really stress this enough, is that you're fucking a blonde with big tits when the lights go out.
      You won't notice it at first, then will, but will keep going. This is a mistake, and is one of many that you'll be making in the near future. The mistake isn't so much that you continue with the big breasted blonde but your reckless abandon in the face of the unknown. This will be a reoccurring theme.
      When you're about to finish on the blonde, a machete blade will come from under the bed and emerge from her chest.
      This is a sign.
      She might scream, but probably won't get the chance and will just make some sort of pathetic gurgle. You'll recoil in horror, naturally, grabbing a pair of shorts, or jeans and running from the cabin. You'll run to the next cabin over to get your friends.
      You'll burst into the room in a blaze of desperation only to find the hanging body of your best friend (sign.) He'll have some sort of ridiculous meat hook through his face which is keeping him nailed to the roof. You'll be devastated of course, you were close with him, having shared the school’s quarterback duties (and the blonde).
      You'll decide you're angry now. You don’t know what’s going on but you’ve had enough. You’re planning some good old fashion vigilante justice. (Mistake).
      You’ll head to the jeep and open the back. You root around to find your dad's old skeet shooting rifle, some ammo, maybe a large hunting knife and a flashlight. (There might be a bit of a music/quick edit montage here, or some sort of camera circle-around-the-actor shot as you look out into the woods. All of this really depends on whether or not Michael Bay is directing this particular horror movie.).
      Having armed yourself you'll head off with a Rambo-like determination. (Mistake. Reckless abandon. Sign.)
      This is when shit really goes sour for you though, when things really come down to the wire. You'll be trouncing through the woods shotgun slung over your shoulder. You'll hear some noises; see some bushes shake, or some shadows move. You'll put your back to a large tree, terrified as you try and calm yourself down. This is when we, the audience, get our first good look at our hero (not your hero). The camera will pan out and he'll be standing behind the tree, machete in hand. This shot, with you and him, will probably be the movie poster, or the website graphic or some sixteen year old’s facebook picture.
      You'll hear him breathing now, and your eyes will be wide with panic. Your bravado will have completely subsided now and you'll be running through the thick trees. You’ll run all the way to the jeep, which will now have its top and windows up. It'll be unlocked and you'll get in. You'll find the keys in the sun visor and put them in and turn them. Despite being a brand new jeep in perfect condition, it will rev, and rev but never start. This is most definitely a sign.
      You'll be focused on the engine's efforts, revving and revving. There's a stillness while the engine revs and fails, revs and fails. This is when the brunette will get your attention by ridiculously hurling herself on the driver's side window as hard as she possibly can, effectively giving you a goddamn heart attack.
      She's pretty but in a near miss, supporting actress, kind of way. She'll be crying and telling you about the third dude's head, and how it’s in the freezer beside the rum. (Sign.)
      You'll look past her to see the enormous man wearing a mask and holding a machete emerging from the surface of the lake and walking at a leisurely pace.
      (These are all signs).
      The brunette will let out a bloodcurdling scream, and the masked man will throw the knife end over end at her, splitting her head open like a watermelon.
      It's at this point when your suspicions will be pretty high that you are in a horror movie. You're pretty sure. You'll venture to say that with all this evidence you're almost 94% sure. There’s hope though right? You think that there's always a survivor isn’t there? These things always have about twenty seven sequels and remakes, each one more ridiculous than the last. But usually there’s that one person that overcomes the forces of evil and survives.
      Right?
      These are the thoughts you've chosen as your last while the boat anchor smashes your nose through the back of your skull.
      (This is a sign.)
