I'm waiting for my departing flight, but it doesn't seem to be showing...
I love theatre, and I'm glad I have the passion to pursue it.
When you're living in the makes of a crackhouse... it really boosts your sense of everything.
The only thing keeping my sane,is the cross hanging in my doorframe, the journal I've kept while here, and my phone calls with a really great friend.
Last night we had an amazingly violent night of thunderstorms, and to tell you the truth, I couldn't sleep because I was really that uncomfortable. I miss home. I can barely even recieve calls from family and friends because I don't know how long my reception will last. Although I could probably find someone in town with morse code, or the technique for smoke signals... i don't think I have the time to learn how.
Sorry for the random updates, its what I got.
Be good, smile, make a connection.

Good News... I saved a bunch of money by switching my car insurance, and the doctor didn't kill me.
Ok, Quick update.
Just wanted to let everyone know that surgery was successful. It took 4 hours instead of the 1, and was alot more detailed than expected. The doctor told my parents that the growth had enzymes that were about to eat away at a bone connected to my brain, but lucky the surgery was in time. This is coming from the same doctor that wanted to postpone surgery, and put me on more meds to see if that'd help. Good thing we all listened to Todd on this one. I'm making great progress, I'm eating and chewing solid foods, and walking around to keep me going. Look out world, you only kept me down for one day, I'm back and ready for action... well, almost.
This is a pic of me as a child. yes, thats really me.

"Average Hero Saves the day, but know one knows who he is"
Someone at UCF once told me why it is I'm so persistant, determined and focused. "Oh, I know why you do so much in the department, it's because you're new. Once you get to be where I am, you'll stop"
You know what I have to say to that...
This is my career I'm working for not a grade. I strive to become successful which means I'll do what it takes to achieve greatness. I don't get a second chance at this life, so why should I sit back and wait... I won't.
I've been hired to be one of the brothers in the production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat in Missouri with the City of Maples Repetory Theatre. I'll be there from May 24-July 18 (which happens to be my 22nd birthday) and then I'll be back in florida to get ready for the fall semester.
Surgery is Thursday, and I'm ready for it. In, Out and Cured... right? Damn right.
You know what I have to say to that...
Fuck You.

Blast from my own Past. Part I
I wrote this when I was 17. It's shocking.
When you wake in the morning, what thought crosses your mind? Is it the burning question of acceptance, well to me, it is. Not accpetance in society, but to someone even more important, myself.
So i ask myself, and you should also, who am I, and why?
It's funny, in this life we search for new and daring adventures, to enhance our lives, yet we forget to realize that what we've been doing daily is constant and isn't new. The only thing in the enitre world that will always stay the same is change. We use the word like one day we will wake up and we realize that everything we're used has dissapeared and we will soon be forced to fen for ourselves. I'm assuming that not only I feel this way, this is the reason people live with there parents after high school, not to mooch or live off them, but yet that we are scared that one day we will wake up, and nothin will make sense. So now i've come to the point in my life where i must decide, do i really know myself, or have I not only been fooling everyone else but also myself. We spend all our lives digging a pit of despair, and trying to fill that imagianry hole, and for what reason, to reassure ourselves, or make someone feel more confident in you ? Everyones got a special place they like to run and hide, a sanctuary the can express there deepest in. Mine is in the worst place of all within myself, and i need to change it, but its constant and will always stay the same.
So i ask myself, and you should also, where am I, and why am I there, and where will I be?

Mission Accomplished - Part I
Sorry I haven't written in a while but i've been busy with finals, and getting ready to move back home.
Finals are over.
I had my BFA review. I heard lots of great things. I have excellent Leadership and the Attitude to go with it. My professors are glad to have me in class. Fucking Rad.
The only criticism I recieved is that I need to work on taking direction better. Done. I have all summer to work on that, and I will.
I have the theatre banquet on friday evenin' and I'm excited to hang out with my kinda people. This will be the last time I see them until the fall semester. things will be a bit different then. Promise.
Saturday I'm working tech at the Wyndham Orland Resort on I-drive. I applied for the chance to work with some big people around town on this FAME banquet, and I got in. It's going to be quite an experience, it's load-in, set-up, rehearse, run show, strike and load-out all in the same day. Holy Poop... This should be fun.
I started 2005 with the theme for "living in the now" and I think i've surpassed that. I've lived in the now, and even more.
I've become a better person day by day. I've made somethings better with people, because conflict isn't healthy. I'm not perfect and I don't strive to be something I'm not... but I need to be the best Todd Justin Davis I can be.
On that note, the theme for the rest of the year is..
Take a chance... be yourself... make a connection.

If I wasn't such a wuss, I'd do what I wrote...
So, I've been writing a bit lately, and this was born from a conversation I had the evening before. It's a tragiclove lyric, and I'm not sure where it came from. It's so bittersweet in my opinion, and hopefully some people can relate.
"I've decided I'm going to drop out of college and just look for shit on the beach with a metal detector... I could wake up in a sleeping bag on the shore and have no care in the world, I mean I'll probably never leave your side, but atleast I'll always have that choice"

Live by these fucking words...
There are no
bad experiences.Sometimes we will make mistakes.Occasionally, we will achieve greatness.The only requirement is that we
live our life the way we want.
Something significant is missing in my life and I've not been able to place it.
But i'm living my life the way I want.
Guess thats the price for making my own decisions.

I'm not really nervous I'm in what I'd like to call, Negitive Anticipation.
Live on Pay-Per-View
Thursday. Thursday. Thursday.
May 19th.
I've never been a man of religion, but with each passing day, I find myself exploring the possiblities.
Thursday. Thursday. Thursday.

I've never been a man of religion, but with each passing day, I find myself exploring the possiblities.
What a moment, huh ?
It's only when we're in need we look above, it's not when we have too much do we ask.
