The Emmy's, Back to the Future, and my future.

I've seriously just sat here staring at this page for 20 minutes. I hate not having anything to write about, or anything important to say about my day. So, I distracted myself by watching a bit of Youtube, and making tea. I decided I should just write about SOMETHING and get it over with. I don't know how I'm going to do this everyday for a whole year.....
   Today was filled of nothing but much too sleep, reading, and t.v. watching. I went to bed really early last night, well, early for me, and woke up around 1 p.m.! I love weekends. I woke up feeling rather ill, and I'm still not feeling too hot, so I'm drinking like gallons of tea.
   The Emmy's were on today, and it got me thinking about how much I love acting and why I love it. I know a lot of people don't like award shows, but I'm absolutely in love with them. The Emmy's, The Oscars, the Tony's.... I just love them. I like them, because they're not just for the fans, but for the actors and actresses to see how much we appreciate them. Many people may think that "oh, these actors don't need anymore 'appreciation' blah blah blah" but really, I think they do. I mean it's obvious that since their shows are still on air, or their movies are making money, that they have fans, but I bet nothing feels as great as holding that award in your hands, knowing that people actually admire something you put a lot of effort into and love to do. And that's what I love about acting, because there will always be people who really really appreciate your acting, and it makes it all seem worth it. As long as there are people who appreciate what I do, I know it will all be worth it in the end. I mean, like, I act because I LOVE it. I act because I want to act. If no one came and saw anything I was in, well, that would be okay, because I love what I'm doing. But the fact that an audience shows up and appreciates what you're doing, well, that's something else. And that is why I love theatre so much.
    All of this led me up to thinking about my future and about how much I want to be apart of an award show one day. I think I would be best suited for the Tony Awards, because I love stage/musical theatre so much, but even being at the Oscars or Emmy's would be nice. ;D One day....one day.... I will work my ass off to make it to that point. And I'll do it respectfully.
   And of course, with all this future talk, Back to the Future as been on for the past three days. The first part was on on Friday, the second on Saturday, and the third was on today. Of course I watched them because, duh, it's Back to the Future! I haven't watched them in sooo long. I forgot how much I loved that movie. For some reason I don't own the dvds....:[ I'll have to buy them soon.
   I've been re-reading Catching Fire because my copy of MockingJay still hasn't came in the mail. :/ This makes me upset. I want to read it now! I've just been glad that I haven't come across any spoilers. Now I have to finish reading Phaedo for my Philosophy class tomorrow.
Catch you on the flip side.
(oh, and I've made it through a whole week!)
