For those who don't know, I am back on the island. The trip was great. A lot of good times and memories. Thanks to all those I met and all those who helped me out along the way!
The plan now is to head back to Toronto to attend school at Second City. I need to save up some cash along the way before I go.
Although it is nice to be back home, I cannot but feel like I left something behind. That is a strong indication that I really do want and need to go back and go to SC. Just being inside the building, looking at all the pictures is enough to give you goose bumps. I cant imagine what will happen once I am enrolled.
I hope to be back out in Toronto ASAP. However, due to money issues, and the high cost if living in the downtown area, I have no idea when I will be able to return. September or October seem to leading the way right now.
If anyone out there is willing to pay me a lot of money very fast for any sort of job, let me know.
Maybe I will just pool together some change and play the lottery. How could I not win?
I watched Karate Kid part two today. The rating on the shaw guide said two stars. But I'm going to have to go ahead and disagree with that. Mr.Miyagi is a fucking genius. He was actually really really good! For those who don't remember what the plot of the movie is (only a few I'm sure) Mr. Miyagi and Daniel take a trip to Okinawa to visit Mr Miyagi's dieing father. After arriving Mr Miyagi finds he still has feelings for an old love. This stirs up trouble with an old rival that he originally left Okinawa to avoid. In the mean time Daniel encounters a new love and also makes some enemies. I don't want to get into further details, just in case someone out there hasn't seen it. I recommend everyone goes out and purchases this movie. Hell, buy all three! One of the best American trilogies of all time. And if Mr.Miyahi doesn't make you weep at least three times in the first two movies, you have something seriously wrong with you.
Ok... Now it's time for the number one game show in all of THE NORTH AMERICAS!!
