So, I totally suck at my resolution for this school year. I was going to post in my blog more regularly. I have failed to do so. Damn it!
Anyway, it has been a good school year so far. We are about ready to open our first official show of the year, and we are sitting wonderfully. Today was the first day of classes since fall break. Now, for those of you from state schools, don't freak out. We don't get columbus day (or Native American Day if you are crazy and think that is what the day is about) or Martin Luther King Jr. Day off from class. We have class everyday because Augie doesn't acknowledge all of the national holidays. It kinda sucks, but oh well. I was planning on getting so much accomplished over break. I was going to
1. Read Hamlet for script analysis
2. Read Dramatic Imagination and write a paper on it for stagecraft
3. Run Lines
4. Read Ch. 3 in my theatre history book and write a top 10 list of that time period.
Here's what I got accomplished:
1. I read Hamlet.
2. I started to read Dramatic Imagination.
3. I ran lines.
That's it. That's what I have to show for my fall break. I did do some laundry as well. But, I guess it wouldn't really be a break if all I did was work. It always amazes me how important cleaning or laundry is when I have other things I should be doing. The boring task of laundry suddenly becomes the ONLY thing I could possibly do. Lord knows you can't do homework and laundry at the same time.
I did kinda understate what all I did over break. I also spent a lot of time at the Washington Pavilion. I volunteered for Spooky Science Night, and I also worked one afternoon. For volunteering, I dressed up in a clown outfit and walked around the science center entertaining kids. For doing that, I got a free ticket to Second City's touring show. It was Saturday night, and was highly entertaining. I really enjoyed it. When I found out I was going to be sitting up in the balcony, I was worried that I wasn't going to be able to see anything (as the balcony is almost 6 stories high), but I was pleasantly surprised that I could see and hear everything just fine.
Right before break, was mid-term week. I didn't think I was going to survive this mid-term, but I did fine. I even squeaked by with good grades! Wow! I love the classes I am taking this semester, but I can't wait for next semester. I finally figured out what I am going to be taking. They go as follows:
Interim
THEA 234 Theatre for Community: Scripting for Social Change
Spring 2007
THEA 137 Costuming Foundations
THEA 340 Stage Management
THEA 216 Theatre History & Literature
BSAD 270 Statistics
PE 100 Karate
PE 100 Raquetball/Fitness (tentative)
ART 101 Drawing 1
It seems like a lot. Wow, next semester is going to be fucking hard.
The posters for The Comedy of Errors has my face on it. Pretty creepy when you see pictures of yourself all over campus. Now, they have a picture of the poster on Augie's website as an advertisement. Augie's website.
Anyway, that's all for now, my ADD is kicking in.
