Election 2008


I get to vote in the upcoming presidential election. This will be only my second time voting, but my first time voting for president. I decided that if I'm going to vote, I'm going to know who and what I'm voting for. I filed for an absentee ballet, which was fun in itself seeing as I'm going to be in three different states before the primary election and had no idea which address to give them. But I got that worked out.
I even looked into whether I was a Republican or a Democrate. I mean, my family is republican... my whole town is republican for that matter. But who is to say I am. I went through a lot of the issues, actually kinda hoping to be a Democrate just to shake it up a little bit. But I can't do it, at least not in this election. Blame it on working at the LIFE Center for so long, but I just can't get over the abortion issue. So looks like I have to vote with the old boring Republicans. HA!

With a Breaking News Update...


NEWSFLASH: I can't make decisions.
Yet again here comes the dreaded decision of acting vs. athletics. How many times have I made this decision, and how many times will I have to?
Tennis is not going according to plan and I got thrown into an acting gig and had forgotten how much I loved it. Actually, at the end of my acting debut at Grace Fellowship Church, I was offered the most amazing job, to the point where I was almost ready to drop everything and go. But I didn't, which was probably... ok definantly... the wise decision. But now I'm faced with another one.
Do I start getting my feet wet again in acting, or do I continue on the tennis path? Or do I try once again to manage the balancing act of 18 hours of class, 10 hours of tennis, 10 hours of work, and x number of hours practicing.
This would seem like an easy decision for anyone who didn't know me. I'm not planning on following either path into a career. So it shouldn't matter, shouldn't be that big of a deal. But it's me, and I have a desicion complex... so it does matter and it is a big deal.
So, this weekend, I have a tennis match... that I should just be excited to be playing in... but in reality, I'm scared to death.
