Current Mood: Stressed

Okay so, finals are next week and then a bunch of other stuff so this site may just go on a little break. I’ll still be around, just not here.

Besides, this site is being wonky. Comments are broken and all of my categories were deleted and most of my plugins.

The regional theatre I work at is an affiliate with my university and there is one play a season that they have my university sponsor, and it happens to be the play that I wrote all those articles for. It’s a two person play, called “The Four of Us” by Itamar Moses. It’s not a great read but seeing it live on stage was unbelievable. The two actors, Bhavesh Patel and Jed Orlemann were fantastic.

Well, because my university sponsored the play, the actors and the artistic director came to campus for a talk back and my friend and I were the only two students who showed up. I was sad because they were expecting almost 50 people to show up and participate, but at the same time it was amazing because it was just us two, 3 professors and the actors. We just sat in a circle and talked about the play and what some of their favorite roles were. It was just so amazing. My friend and I were almost in a daze. We both love theatre and here are two actors who have been in movies, tv, Broadway and they came HERE. It was awesome to get advice from them and insight into the professional theatre world. I think they didn’t mind the intimacy of just 5 people in the audience because they were able to focus on one thing at a time. They told us that we need to go back and watch the play again so I think we’re definitely going to do that.

That’s my little bit lol, I just wanted to share.

I just got home from my internship. I’m increasingly annoyed. They cut my article out of the playbill because of space reasons but they included my bibliography AND they didn’t even tell me about it. It would’ve been fine if they had told me about it beforehand because I know the editing process and I know it can be a bitch to fit everything in there. But I had to flip through the actual book to see my name on the cover and none of my work in there. They should’ve just taken my name off it. That’s all I’m going to say about that.

This kid I went to high school with finished 24th overall at the Boston Marathon on Monday. He finished in 2hours and 25 minutes. That’s unbelievable. The marathon is 26 miles! He even beat Lance Armstrong by a LOT! Armstrong finished in just under 3 hours. There was an article all over my town’s newspaper today that’s why I brought it up.

I’ve lost 4lbs already, which basically means that it’s a pound a day. Not bad I think. I’m not cheating on the diet which is surprising because I have absolutely NO willpower. I’m going food shopping tomorrow to pick up some more stuff. I’m surprised, a lot of the stuff that is okay for me to eat, I actually LIKE. I like sugar-free Popsicles and sugar-free jello. Weird.

I’m almost caught up with all of my school work. It’s a three day weekend so I have time. I have all of my internship work done so now I can focus on a paper that is due on Monday. I still have to schedule final rehearsals with my actors even though I still haven’t met with one. The play goes up on May 8-9th and I still haven’t met with one of my actors. I’m grateful to have him though because he was the only one I could find! Other than these and my Theatre History final project, I’m pretty much done until finals and even those aren’t going to be as tough as I imagined. Then I’m DONE. Stupid of me, I picked a career path that needs an MFA, so grad school is a must. Eh.

This was a random post.
