There were a few years starting around when I was 13 where I got REALLY into manga and anime.
I'm really glad I outgrew it, though even though I don't like that stuff now, I can't lie and say I didn't love it back then.
Anyway, Aruba is starting to take its toll.
It's very relaxing and beautiful here... but a little TOO relaxing and beautiful. This happens every time I go on a long vacation, which is often. I'm antsy to get back to school, to start filming Roomhates, to see all my friends again...
I'm actually missing my colleges bowl game right now. The marching band went to the Texas Bowl with my school's (Western Michigan) football team.
I couldn't go because the bowl game we got scheduled for was smack in the middle of this vacation. Tomorrow, actually.
So that's already put a damper on everything.
I'm not complaining, no.
Well, okay, I am, but I know I shouldn't be.
It's just, I can only tan, swim, and relax for so long.

Today I witnessed somebody lick their elbow. It definitely happened. Multiple times. I don't know HOW in the world she can do it.
Also found out from the same person (family friend that we're on the trip with) that Brandon T. Jackson, who played Alpa Chino in Tropic Thunder, went to my high school (she was classmates with him). That was about 6 years ago, I guess.
I personally think it's cool because after reading up on him a bit, it turns out that he started with stand-up comedy and screen-writing and eventually being discovered and landing roles in movies like Roll Bounce and finally Tropic Thunder. Apparently he was just in The Day The Earth Stood Still, too. He has even opened for Chris Tucker before. I mean, man.
This gives me a lot of confidence in my own very similar dreams and aspirations.
And now I'm searching for Jake! Left him a comment on Facebook, but I haven't talked to him in a while.
I was laying out the soundtrack for all five episodes of Roomhates, like which songs will be used when and where, and I needed the Breakfast Machine music from Pee Wee's Big Adventure for this part where Alvin builds a complicated death contraption. So, I was searching my hard drive for it since I knew I had it somewhere, when I remembered those mash-up mixes that Jake did a while back. Specifically "Pop My Pee Wee." That mash-up of the Breakfast Machine Pee Wee song and Wine-O's "Pop My Trunk."
I have it ready and it'd be perfect to use instead of the original music, but I just need Jake's permission.
Felt that it was relevant to post here.
