Rumors of My Death Have Been Greatly Exaggerated

Wow, I've been away from blogging for a long time. Such a shame, especially when it seems like I was just getting into it. Truth be told, I just haven't had enough time for sitting at my computer. Life has been pretty freaking hectic for me. Which is actually why I'm blogging now.
Ok, so I was in this High School production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. We have been practicing nonstop for many moons. We finally had our student and parent performances just a week ago and things have quieted down as far as the play is concerned. It's over and I'm glad. Although I will miss it. I met a lot of new and fun people and these memories will stick with me for a long time. I don't know what I'll do now that its over. Maybe I can finally devote more time to fencing. Anyway, the play was a smashing success. People are still raving about our beloved musical and still randomly singing songs from it. It brought a smile to my face when I heard some random person whistling Go Go Go Joseph in the bathroom lol. Cracks me up everytime. So yeah, It feels good to be part of what has been considered the best musical Hunter High has put on since Les Miserables. 
Another major change is that I turned 18 on November 20. So yeah, I'm legal now. I even made a list of all the things I can do now that I'm 18. I can join the army, get married w/out parent approval, buy M rated games, buy cigarettes (but not smoke them), pay my own insurance, become a porn star, not get legally fed by parents, oh and get tried as an adult if I blow something up. Am I missing the bright side of turning 18? Oh and guess what? My first hours of manhood were spent shirtless and wearing makeup and twirling around a ribbon like a twinkled toed fairy leading the Gay Pride Parade. In other words, opening night of Dreamcoat. What a way to become a man.
Lastly, I was chosen to be the English Sterling Scholar at my school. It was an honor. I was also selected as a Wolverine of the Month Nominee. 
So there you go. A lot of crap has gone down in the last month I have not blogged. A lot of drama has gone down too, but I'm not going to write about that. Why would I want to remember any drama? I want to only remember the good things about life. That way, when I'm old and wrinkly, I can look back on my life and enjoy it a second time. 
By the way, I saw James Bond Quantum of Solace with my dad. That was the highlight of my month.
