Alphabetical Exercise Cont.

Look for the extraordinary in the ordinary, you're told, everyday has an adventure you're not seeing yet. Maybe it's because you're too busy running to auditions and rehearsals and trying to pay the rent and eat in the same month, but you know you can't do both. Or maybe it's hard to see the excitement when your neighbors party and fight 'til three am while all you want to do is practice and sleep. People don't see you as you, you're "alternative", living the lifestyle that doesn't need a nine to five and a white picket fence with 2.5 kids and a dog named chappie. Question your reality, that's what they want, to pull you into the normal and boring. Relax, you live in a world of glitter and sequins, of performance and stages of lights and booming sound. Slip into the comfort of that alternative world and run from ergonomic chairs and keyboards. Tomorrow you'll wake up to worry all over again but tonight it's you, the audience and that stage. Under the cloak of blackness, you're ready. Wait for it. Xanadu, my Xanadu, live in a world of your own accord! Your life is your own and it's full of bourban smiles and red velvet curtains being opened. Zap, you're there, live it.
