I Never Met a Carrot I Didn't Like...Except for THIS ONE!
So. I haven't posted on this thing in over a year. Applause. And I am far too lazy to recount what has gone on in my life, so I'll just start afresh.
One thing I will say, though, is that this summer I attended Duke University's Creative Writers' Workshop and met the most amazing people there. And I love them all! So, shout out to my fellow C-Dub-Dubbers!
So, last week I was cast as Lady Capulet in Romeo and Juliet at my high school. Maize High School. Yeah, Maize like corn. AND we found out that our fantastic show Blithe Spirit made it to the Kansas Thespian Conference, A.K.A. the state-wide, three-day-long theatre conference. Which is fuckin' AWESOME. BUT, this also means that we have to completely rebuild our box set, figure out how to break it down, load it up, take it to a different venue, put it together, and perform in a day. Oh, and we have to figure this out by the first week of January. So, the fabulous four-person crew, of which I am the only female and source of estrogen, and the rest of the cast have our work cut out for us.
Thus, today I spent two and a half hours removing staples and muslin from old flats. And Max painted my face so I looked like a kitty while I did it. Easily amused am I.
Also, this college thing. It's freaking me the hell out. Just sayin'.
Daily addition to my Christmas List: A Periodic Table of the Elements shower curtain, like on The Big Bang Theory!
Spanish verbs can picanseme. I'm about 90% sure that means bite me.
I need an XBox 360. On which to play Left 4 Dead 2. A zombie game extroidenaire. But if I had that then I'd fail school and that aformentioned college thing wouldn't even be an issue.
I had pizza for two meals today. I don't even like Pizza. But that doesn't stop me from eating Papa John's for lunch when my school gets it catered once a month. What Maize lacks in educational standards and proper budgeting, we make up for in catered pizza.
I'm just writing down thoughts as they come to me, now. Water bottle.
Ugh, I'm sick of one side of my family being pissed at me for wanting to spend time with the other side of my family. LIke, for real, you're mad at me for not writing off half of my chromosomes? Whatever.
Youtube videos are slowly taking over every single conversation I have with my friends. They include at least one quote from something. It's probably really confusing to outsiders.
Hm. This might be all.
Oh, book reccomendation! The Manny Diaries. It's nothing really ground breaking, but the characterization is awesome! And I want a clothes valet because of it.
Well, now Castle is on, which I think is a dreadful knock off of Bones with the genders reversed, the dialogue bad, and the plots usually taken straight from Bones as well. But, alas, it's the only thing worth watching on Monday nights.
