Upcoming Things

       This blog is an interesting experience for me; because of it I find I push myself to do things that are outside of my comfort zone or things I just normally wouldn't do. Today (November 5, 2012), I received a email that was about attending a focus group. Being a introvert this is the kind of thing that I would never see myself doing, however this blog is always in the back of my mind so I replied with my application and was accepted into it. So we will see how this goes, hopefully I don't become very reserved and shy which has happened before. One good thing about this focus group is that at the end of it we get twenty five dollars, which I need pretty badly. For two reasons, one I am a college and that money could go pretty far whether it go to a meal that isn't fried chicken, to a video game or towards a date for my partner and I. Two it would help replace the dent in my wallet after I either lost or had $40 stolen from it, I believe the latter of the two. I will keep this blog posted with what happens.
         Some other things that are happening this Weekend is that I get to go home and to my high school to see a play. I was pretty involved with the theater program the last two years of high school, and I can't wait to return and see that group I left. That is on Saturday and my friend is picking me up and we are driving all the way from Fort Collins to Centennial which is about an hour and a half, then we are seeing the play, and then driving all the way back. So that will be a long day but a fun one. I have to remember to start making a good playlist now for the road.
         On Sunday I have tickets to go see Watsky, who is a poet, rapper and speaker of sorts. I am very excited to see him perform, the reason being as before mentioned I was in theater in high school and in my senior I was in a class called "Company", an elite acting class. We once had the assignment to perform a monologue and I picked one of Watsky's speeches to perform entitled "Go Robo". Click Go Robo and see the video that I was going to perform parts of. That is until my teacher found out it was from a YouTube and not from literature, and told me to choose something else a couple of days before the showcase. I really enjoy his work and can't wait to go see it, I will try to get pictures on the night. Definitely expect a blog on this.





         Finally for everyone that has read my blog I would like to say thank you. To do this I am going to change a couple of word in a lyric because I think it fits well here, "Thank you for reading again, or for the first time, or for the last time, we share this moment and for that I am grateful"-more or less attributed to AWOLNATION. There are good things that are going to come if you folks keep on reading, I will try my best to keep things interesting.

         P.S. Feel free to leave a comment, I will try to write a response promptly. I have my phone glued to me all day and I will receive a email saying I have a comment and I will be all over that comment so fast you'll be like "Whoa he wasn't kidding".

    1. I just believe that words have a lot of power and meaning and in the current times words are being used very harmful by some people. This is called using inclusive language, words that don't carry a negative connotation. I really think one way to make the world a better place on a small scale is by using this. So I chose partner because everyone can use that term, not everyone can use Boyfriend-Girlfriend. Hope that didn't come off like I was attacking you haha I just wanted to share what I was doing there.

      Have a great day,
      Matthew Juneau
