for NO reason!
Things are going amazingly well,
I returned from Japan one of the defining experiences of my life, booked an amazing job, that job got pushed back, and before a nervous breakdown could set in I was whisked away to Edinburgh Fringe as the newest addition to the cast of Lovelace A Rock Opera, followed by an amazing 1 week vacation to London to visit some of my favorite people on this earth, which turned into two weeks and I had the absolute pleasure to work with award winning film director Marc Price on his new yet unnamed sci-fi short (which I was really excited about because I was the hero and the only one to not die, and lets be honest, usually my people are the first to go(and by my people I mean brown people, just in case you were confused)) and now I’m back in LA, singing with a cover band Pop Vinyl this weekend which I’m stoked about, Rehearsing for my new Show, Sing Sister Sing, with the gorgeous and talented Natalie Wachen and Jantre Haskin Christian, and the big cherry right now, is I’m finally recording an album! FINALLY! and I’m doing it with two crazy skilled producers Mind Majors (its sounding rad by the way, all soulful and delicious, a little schizophrenic like me, but that’s me, and that’s okay I realize).

The thing is I’m busy, but not that busy, I could probably manage my time better. Maybe its just the sense memory of Los Angeles, that makes me feel kind of useless, not to be dramatic, but there is something so frantic and desperate about this city, and you’d think with all that energy there would be more of a buzz, but its at once, frenetic, and stagnant.
I love this city.
I do.
But maybe because I’ve been away for so long
and maybe because I felt so very vital in other places…
You know what I think it is…I feel here (LA)…and the only one making me feel this way is me (and a few other people that shall remain unnamed)…that you are literally only as good as your last project, and that project doesn’t even have to be GOOD, that’s the killer, it just has to fall into a certain vein of media.
Wow, this turned into a rant.
Fuck it.

(there was supposed to be a picture of a volcano here, but I couldn’t get it to load, so there)

I know that this isn’t reality, but when you are surrounded by it, you are consumed by it.
I think because I’ve been gone so long I’m feeling really sensitive.
Part of it is just being an actor, people are always going to ask what you’ve been up to, or what your working on, but it seems like the ONLY thing people have been asking me lately, and to be perfectly honest, my answer should be LOTS OF SHIT, I’ve had a great year career wise and it keeps getting better, but I find myself responding with,
“Oh you know, this and that, did a show, auditioning, same old..same old…”

IT’S NOT THE SAME OLD SAME OLD!!!!!

WRITING IN CAPS MAKES ME FEEL BETTER!!!!!!!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

aaaaaahhhhh

that’s a little better.

that’s actually a lot better.

I need to see my friends,

I need to stop working for five minutes and eat some bruscetta

I need to work out.

Maybe I’m overwhelmed because I feel like life continued so rapidly while I was gone, and I need to catch up.

Or maybe just because there is so much I want to do, so much I AM doing, and so many ideas constantly forming in my head…

Or maybe I just need to hug my mom.

sigh

I feel better

I wish Beck Corley was teaching Yoga Class in Los Angeles instead of Sydney, I love back bends and challenges and being pushed beyond my limits, its completely therapeutic for me, gets me out of my head and completely into my body.

Wow.

What just happened.

Am I still typing?

lol

K, time to go work on music.

love and light,

Kasi
