and when it alls seems hopeless, you say the words to put me back in focus...

Couldn't figure out what I wanted to entitle this entry, and Pac jumped into my brain. If you think about all of the musical legends who died way too young (Bob Marley, Sam Cooke, John Lennon, Otis Redding, Marvin Gaye, 2Pac, Jimi Hendrix, etc.), the groundbreaking legends, that changed the musical AND social landscape, imagine what the world would be like if they were still here. Anyway, back to the entry--

Yeah, this is Lee (the Poet), back up in the spot...or whatever, I don't know. What's good, ya'll? Word? That's what's up. Me? Oh, well, I'm hopefully going to sit down and get some writing out. My aim is to start small; there's this short story I want to hash out, and I've been sitting on it for a while now. I think I had a dream about this, or, I don't quite remember. Most of the significant dreams I either forget, or some how get lost in translation. It's a dope concept that would translate excellently to screen. But, I don't have the patience or desire to write a screenplay on this bad boy. I just want to sit down and write it out, and see what I can do with it once I'm finished.

The other thing I wanna do is look for a voice over casting agent. I happen to be quite well versed in the art of vocal mimicry and wanted to do voice acting since I was a likkle yout, sin? So, those are two simple projects to get started on. I don't necessarily expect to finish the short story, but this is not an impossible task if I actually focus and get in a good groove. The good groove I can't really control, but the focus part I can. Outside of that, I think I'm going to restart my cardio regimen...maybe the jumping rope routine. It had me in decent cardiovascular shape, I just got tired of the same routine after like the 7th or 8th month. We'll see, though. Starting ain't so hard, it's making it stick that makes it difficult sometimes.

On another note, I have a friend who put me on notice by saying I should be in NY at least once a month, getting the lay of the land, doing poetry spots, looking for voice work, etc. Know what? He's absolutely right. I'm going to start pushing towards that.
