The Kabuki Play 3

Kabuki is a traditional form of Japanese theater that portrays the lives of people who lived during the Edo period (1600-1868). While it's subject matter is primarily historical, Kabuki's extraordinary spectacles of color and sound through acting, dancing and music still symbolize contemporary life.

About Me

Name:

HISTORY OF "THE KABUKI PLAY"

  • The original "Kabuki Play" writings exposed a brash inner monologue as I struggled through the trials and tribulations as a college student. Broken friendships, irritating dorm-mates and akward trips home between semesters kicked off the first "Kabuki Play" series. However, college didn't last forever and "the real world" was right around the corner with drama ten fold.
  • "The Kabuki Play 2," a darker and more disturbing account, told the unsettling story about my first job after graduating from college, it being one of the biggest trainwrecks in the history of "The Kabuki Play." After being caught in the middle of 10 consecutive firings in less than two years and being stuck with four pisspoor bosses, I decided that I'd had enough. So, I quit my job and cut off all the negativity in my life, and moved two hours away from home to start my life over.
  • With a new job, my own apartment and a new beginning, "The Kabuki Play 3" picks up where the second series left off and revisits my inner monologue as I try to leave the past behind me and spread my wings.

Chapter 2.2: Next Year

Last year (for 2006), my New Year's resolution was titled "Operation Don't Givva Fuck," (yes, "givva") where I vowed to stop letting bullshit and stress affect me the way it was during that time. However, 2006 was not a great year for me and progressively got worse over time. "Operation Don't Givva Fuck" became more and more difficult to maintain, especially since I was at an all-time low, and my stress levels were through the roof.

For 2005, the year before, "Operation Back On Up" was put into effect and still remains quite successful to this day. Whenever situations got sticky and people became illogical, I would divorce myself from the stupidity and take two or more steps back from the drama and watch as shit imploded. Case in point: I sat back and watched as my previous boss self-destructed from her own stupidity.

For 2007, I hope to fully regain the confidence, wit and strength I had lost between 2004 and 2005 and with that, I propose "FUCK IT" for my next New Year's resolution.

With a flip of my hand in the air and a face of disgust, "FUCK IT" will allow me to maintain normal stress levels, not care about shit, and become more fearless. While it's title is rather explicit, guess what? FUCK IT. Does it look like Igive a damn? 'Cause I DON'T!

Ok, so you want to make 10,000 excuses instead of getting straight to the point? FUCK IT. So you want me to be the staff photographer? FUCK IT. You want this WHEN? FUCK IT.

And soon, "FUCK YOU" will spawn, which is a small sub-resolution that naturally follows suit. I don't need to explain this one, do i?
