"When the sun goes down and the moon shines brighter"

It's a Thursday. We all know what that means, it's time for me to go on and on and on about somebody pretty......this Thursday we're going to look at someone who most of you have probably not heard of: Kaden.

Everything I know about Kaden comes from his Myspaces and his ModelMayhem pages, I won't lie.

First on the shallow end of the spectrum....just look at him. He's frikkin' GORGEOUS. Especially those eyes -- yes, even the eyebrows. And I could stare at his beautiful, strong jawline all day! Gorgeous hair, gorgeous skin. Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! Do you think it would be redundant if I said he was gorgeous once more?

(Can you tell that I enjoy him when he's wet from the first two pictures? I was trying to be subtle but...:-P)

He's also got that amazing talent: he can pull of so many different looks. Preppy, hard-core, wet, dry, business, casual, in-between. He can even do different hair colors!

The most amazing thing about Kaden though is that he's got strength, determination, perseverance, smarts, and the will to follow his dreams. All those things I tell me are gonna help me make it big some day.

The boy left Idaho for California with 44 cents, period. Talk about brave, right? So he starts modeling and obviously, that goes pretty well.

Now, he's a terrific singer too. Like, honestly, I wish I had the songs on his Music Space on CD so I could listen to them in the car too. As it is, I have to visit it at least every Saturday as part of my "getting ready to go out and work it" music selections. Kaden comes in right between "U & UR Hand" by Pink and Willa Ford's "Fuck the Men"...uhhh...anyways........

He's a good guy too. Says he has no ego (but then again, egos tend to give egotists blind spots on the ego, so I'd have to meet him to confirm that for sure, but I believe it), and he's not into drugs -- which, good for him! That stuff is everywhere in most of those "glamorous" industries; clubs, acting, music, modeling...those are full to bursting with them and it takes a lot of strength to resist.

He used modeling to get money in order to start his music career -- strategic thinking! This is a boy who knows how the world works and works it! And, he's put his foot down where nudity is concerned. Yeah, he's doing all of this without losing his morals and values...how great is that?

In short, he's another one of those amazing men out in California who I would love to have in my social circle when I get out there. I dunno if he's into men, but if he's not it doesn't matter. The point is, aside from the eye candy thing, Kaden is the kind of up-and-coming star we should all look up to. He's a role model, you could even say.

Speaking of which, you get a chance to get any of his music? GET IT. If you're a photographer reading this? Get your butt out to CA and get a photoshoot with him. Much like my friend Tony, this is one of those models you absolutely should not pass up the opportunity to work with.

To Improv or Not to Improv

I have a dilemma. And who better to turn to than my loyal readers, all of whom (to my knowledge) are both older and wiser than I am? Yeah, I came up with a whole list but oh well. :-P

I am not doing any of the theater departments projects this semester.
While I should be filling the spare time I have looking for ways to make money -- scholarships, jobs that aren't too time consuming, etc -- I haven't been. Mostly I've been doing favor after favor after favor for friends and being a bum in my room. I'm just completely unmotivated, and I think that my distinct lack of theater (or possibly my distinct lack of hours at abercrombie) is the reason my motivation has up and disappeared.

There's an audition on Thursday for our campuses comedy improv group. I'm friends with everyone in the group, and they are all encouraging me to audition. I want to, but they are only receiving two new members and I am really not that good at being funny when I improv. At least, I don't think so.
There's also the fact that it brings me into the theater department. In some sense, that's good because this semester the theater department will be going through a lot of changes and I will need to stay on top of those changes. This will be an easy way to do so.
Unfortunately, it also brings me into the theater department, which will probably get a lot worse before it gets better. And by that I mean, it's going to fall to pieces. I don't think I want to watch that from inside. More to the point: it will mean I might have to deal with our hellish tech professor, something I've been successfully avoiding.

Also, because I will be behind the other members as far as knowing the improv games, it will absorb pretty much all of my free time. No time for scholarship-hunting, no time for job-hunting, at least at first.
But maybe it will motivate me again?
See, it's a dilemma. Should I audition, or not?

In other news, I did do something almost productive this week as far as my financial situation goes.
I created an account at ModelMayhem and have already been messaged by one photographer, and added by a few others. I could do some modeling on the side of school, no problem! Right?
