Does anyone know of any upcoming productions of West Side Story in the southbay?
this hotel is located next to the waterfront, near downtown Buffalo and i know that it is still there. there was once a real popular night club there. if i remember correctly it is next to the express way going to Niagara Falls ( but that could be wrong)
*This question is being written by a friend.*
I’m a 15 year old girl turning 16 soon. I’m told to be "bubbly, friendly and funny" and I love making people laugh, telling jokes, watching comedy. I’m getting decent marks in school and I have a lot of friends, as well as a warm and loving family. But for some reason, I’ve been feeling strangely down for the last several months. Random little things can make me really angry (like when one of my little siblings ask me a question - the question itself isn’t offending in any way, since it’s usually about homework, but it’s the fact that she asked me which makes me strangely furious.)
Even though I’m liked by a lot of people, I feel like I don’t have strong friendships - friendships that go beyond hot guys, annoying teachers, loads of homework. Friends that aren’t so immature and shallow in their approaches to life (not to sound mean, but some of these kids either act like they’re in kindergarten, or spend their time cutting their lifespan with drugs and alcohol.) Since there’s a lot of people in my personal circles, it feels like there’s not really anyone I can fully open up to. I had some strong friendships back when I lived in a different country about 2 years ago, but I feel like it’s changed too much. They’re all heading off to college, meeting new people, developing new relationships and interests that I obviously can’t relate to because I’m not there to experience it with them. Despite one’s best efforts, 2 years changes a lot in life, especially relationships with people. Although we all try to keep in touch, it’s just not easy when you’re on different sides of the globe and graduating soon/heading to university.
I love my family and all but this is something that they wouldn’t understand. They wouldn’t be able to give me advice without sounding condescending and making me feel like I’m just being over dramatic. And if I point that out, I’ll get in trouble for criticizing them when they’re trying to "solve" the problem.
The thing is, I find my life too "perfect". I know that it sounds completely ridiculous, but it’s sort of true. It feels like there’s got to be more to life than what I’m experiencing right now. Past activities that I used to enjoy are just so empty now: going to the mall, hanging out with friends, watching TV, partying, etc. Everything is so temporary/shallow/unsatisfying. I don’t have much motivation or drive at all. I don’t think I have any real problems, so I guess it’s what makes me so ungrateful for my current comforts. When you don’t have problems, you don’t appreciate the comfort of not having any. If you’re not challenged, then what do you achieve?
And one thing that bothers me is how I’ve changed when it comes to something I really love doing: listening to music. When I listen to music, I’m in my own world and I can do anything. It used to give me the biggest high I could imagine (I don’t do drugs btw) and so much energy, that when I stopped, I’d be giddy and hyper and ready for anything. I still feel good while listening to music, but instead of leaving me with dynamite sticks of energy, I feel like I’m crashing - as if all the dreams and hopes I have have no chance of coming true at all. And it disappoints me so much how my life can’t be as rich (not as in money), or as deep as the music I listen to. Like I can’t experience the things that the lyrics are saying/are meant for. I honestly feel like I don’t have much of a purpose.
I don’t do drugs or alcohol so don’t say it’s that. And it can’t be PMS because it’s been going on for months now. I DO NOT contemplate suicide nor do I ever plan on attempting it. Also, if you can’t be mature about this, don’t bother answering my question. Serious advice would be appreciated. Let me know if I’m depressed, or just going through the whole teenage thing.
PS: One thing I noticed I love doing lately is climbing onto bed and just lying there. Thinking and wishing that my life was different. Even though I know that I have to get up and do homework or whatever, I just have no motivation to leave my bed. It feels so safe and secure there, that I usually end up falling asleep often - and even then, I still don’t want to get up from bed.
I’m attending a Godfather party/movie night next week, but it will be relatively casual. However, everyone will get a kick out of my attire if I theme it to match, and it’s the sort of thing I’d do. However, I have never seen the godfather - the reason I’m going - so can anyone help me with costume ideas?
For the past 2 days, I have had on and off mild dizziness/vertigo, I haven’t fallen over or anything, but I thought I almost fell over today while waiting in line for a game at school, but I am hyperviligant and have anxiety problems, I am not affected while running and I’m scared, what could it be?
i have a star wars picture signed by carrie fisher, harrison ford, mark hammil, and james earl jones. it has the holly wood dreams certificate of authenticity and is signed by one of their agents. any ideas on how much this is worth.. or where i can find out?
Mine would have to be Brian Regan.
the address is:
354 Broadway New York, NY 10013
So would I say "Can I go to the corner of Broadway and Franklin Street?" or something like that? I’m going in a month and don’t really know how the whole taxi cab thing works. Thanks!
also, could I just walk there? It’s only like 4 miles away from where I’m staying.
something that u can watch over and over again, it could be drama, horror, comedy, romance, suspense, action, anything.
Mine is "Why did i get married"
"Boyz in da hood"
