There are giants in the sky

Song of the day: Best of Me - (Covered by a currently un-named acoustic band)

Ever second guessed your own decisions? Welcome to the world of Brennan Cuff.

My most sincere advice I could ever give a young guy that's just entering into the new environment of independance is a resounding: "Just don't think about it".

Best advice I've ever gotten, and that goes for many things. Girls (especially), career, friendships (although that ones more of a "don't worry about it").

There are enough little things, if you take the care to notice them, that will tell you all you need to know.

Case and point: yesterday.

I long ago decided that I want to attend some sort of production/theatre school somewhere in the world. I didn't care where, but I just needed to embrace my love of performing in some sort of professional environment.

And, like many times along the way, I got scared last month. I realized that I am now a professional performer. I get paid to be on a stage singing and entertaining. Could this be my fill of professional performing? When I finish this year, am I going to be thankful that I got the opportunity to perform for a living, but now I'm ready to settle down and go to university for a more 'business' like job?

Yesterday, I spent my day off going to watch Marion M. Graham Collegiate put on 'Copacabana'. It was the only chance I'd have to watch it, seeing as we're in Manitoba this week.

These highschool teenagers were up there, singing and dancing around, just having fun.

....And all my fears were calmed.

I am so ready for the next 8 months (or possibly year and 8 months) to be enjoyed, but fly by as fast as possible.

My dear holy God, get me on that stage now...

...the lights, the stage, the music, the dancing, the costumes, the make-up, the audience....

... the life.

"Open up your eyes take a look at him
If the picture fits in your memory
He's been dreamin by the rhythm like the beat of a heart
And Cuff won't stop until he starts to stand out

Some people settle for the typical things
Livin' all their lives waitin' in the wings
It ain't a question of 'if', just a matter of time
Before he moves to the front of the line

And once you're watchin' ev'ry move that Cuff makes
Ya gotta believe that he got what it takes!

To stand out
Above the crowd
Even if he's gotta shout out loud
'Til his is the only face you see
Gonna stand out 'til you notice he(haha)

Cuff's under a spell, he's in over his head
And you know he's going all of the way, 'till the eeeeeend

To stand out
Above the crowd
Even if he's gotta shout out loud
'Til Cuff's is the only face you see
He's gonna staaaaaaaaand out'til you notice he, yeah"

- Appropriate, no? :D You're the best, buddy!
