Luckiest Person EVER?!
So...I'm beginning to think I'm the luckiest person ever. This is why:
#1. The other day I was late for a meeting (what else is new) and in my haste I quickly shoved my iPod in my bag and ran from my car to Brock. During my brief run, my iPod fell out of my bag and was missing for 4 hours. I realized it was missing at about 10:00 at night and started panicking. Just as I was about to give up, I ran into Denise who just so happened to be doing her laundry on campus and she agreed to help me look again. So the two of us were looking around in a dark field for quite some time and just as we were about to give up, I randomly looked down and saw my iPod, sitting about three inches away from a busy sidewalk.
My iPod had just been lying there for 4 hours while people, some honest, some not-so-honest, passed by not noticing it. Then, about a minute and a half after finding it, it started pouring.
#2. I drive a crap car that breaks down FOREVER! (I do realize that that sentence makes no sense, but if you've ever driven in my car... you get me). Anyway, it just so happens that my car broke for good on Tuesday, the same day my mother's will money came due from the bank and the very day my Line of Credit became available. Guess who got a new car?! That's right!
#3. THIS IS A BIGGY.
So...my friend Allison and I are always planning random trips to random places to see theatre. We recently decided to actually go on a for-real trip to New York. She just so happened to have a long weekend Oct 25-28. Looking at my schedule, I realize that I haven't been scheduled to work anywhere but the only problem is I have an unmissable class all day Friday. Well...it just so happens that this same weekend the Drama in Ed students were taking a trip as well, forcing my teacher to cancel class that day! I WIN!
However...things can't be easy for B-Wats. It soon comes to my attention that I have no idea where my birth certificate or any of my ID is and, ever since 9-11, its impossible to cross the border without it! So for over a week I've been looking for my ID, ripping my house apart trying to find it. I'm supposed to leave for NY tomorrow and I still hadn't found it. I decided to look one more time in my room. Three hours later...still no ID. I figure I might as well take a break and read from a High School Musical themed magazine...guess whats inside? YOU GUESSED IT, MY FRIGGIN' ID!!!!!! All of it!
B-WATS IS GOING TO B-WAY!!

AWKWARD!
So everyone knows I am the King of Awkwardom (and musicals!) but I thought I would post something that gives even me a run for my money.
The fun part is deciding whether the dancing girl or the horny dog is the best part of this.

I Am a Terrible Person
Okay...so this is a clip from the play "The Miracle Worker" about Hellen Keller. I feel horrible about posting this but I think it is important to watch for educational purposes, specifically for Stage Managers...and its effing hilarious in a very messed-up, slightly Patrick Bateman-ish way. Enjoy...

A FUN VIDEO
STILL NO VIDEO BLOG FROM B-WATS! But here is something that is almost as entertaining as me! Frankly this made my day.
A series of things that amuse me about this video:
#1. Why in hell was Mr. T chosen to be the narrator? I love the opening line, "Everybody gotta wear clothes." Duh, Mr. T...duh.
#2. He is clearly reading his lines off of a card. I'm impressed that he can read that coherently.
#3. I am amused that the personal labels are duct-tape with the person's name printed on it with marker. I think I'm going to start doing that!
#4. What kind of sadistic parents name their twin girls Xena and Zena!?
#5. Did he REALLY just call that girl a "hot-dog?!"
#6. Did anyone else catch the "pervert point" Mr. T gives Manny? Poor, poor Manny.
#7. I NEVER thought I would hear Mr.T say the series of words "Here's Janine, cool as a peppermint ice cream in her pink ensemble and frosty white pumps." I'm horrified.
#8. Why do a group of children scream "Baseball party" at us at the end of this? I'm thinking this little league team probably sponsored this video.
Thanks Mr. T! I owe you one for my epic style!!

This video was sent to me by Denise. I think that ALL of us should use this as a monologue at some point. My Sheridan audition monologue? I think so! Denise's NTS audition - very yes! If I turned it into a ballad, I could use this for my Sound of Music audition. Maybe....?
Also, I LOVE the Outsiders bit. This is one of my favourite movies ever and it is now even more my favourite! How in hell did this man get into Julliard?

Okay peeps, there are still NO videos posted on the blog. Let me tell you about what's going down with the situation (which I will now be calling the sit [pronounced "sich"]. It has been QUITE an ordeal.
Firstly, I hate how every single piece of equipment needs a special cord. Your printer needs a different cord from the internet, which is different from the cord on your straightener, which wont work on your synth, which, in turn, will not work for your cell phone, which you can't charge your iPod with. What the HAY-LOSS is with THAT!? So anyway, I'm having trouble uploading the vids because I don't have the right, you guessed it, cord! It has to be this specially ordered JVC super-cord that I had to specially order, specially.
I went to Circuit City (which we are now boycotting due to their lies!) and they told me this specially ordered super-cord would cost me $149.95!! I was like WTF, its an effing cord! So I went on ebay, which always saves the day for me (Cast Recordings for only $4.00? Sign me up!) and found one for 6.49 (taxes and shipping incl.). Stupid Circuit City.
So, the specially ordered super-cord is in the mail. As soon as it gets here, the adventure begins!
This is B-Wats - out!
P.S. Go see Across the Universe. Julie Taymor makes my face melt. The guy who played Troy in the National Tour of HSM was in it for 7 seconds. That was exciting!

B-WATS FIRST EVER BLOG!!
So here it is folks, Brian's blog...(which will soon include amazing videos of my adventures but because of Wal Mart's insolence, you'll have to wait until tomorrow for them to happen). Sit tight because this promises to be probably the best video blog ever. It will definitely include a crazy deaf man in a Wendy's, a gold Elvis impersonator and a WILD Value Village adventure (where we buy awesome Fish-Bowl Friday shirts/knitted ponchos). How do I know?? Because all of these things are already on tape and ready for blogging!!!!! (Blame Wal Mart for not being able to watch it right now).
Anyway...thanks for coming. Tell your friends!
Hearts! B-Wats
