This trip to the midwest has really made me think. I really liked Beloit College - I liked the campus, liked a lot of the students, loved the professors I met... everyone was really nice about having 170 prospies wandering around campus ( Read more... )

It'll probably be Beloit. If money works out.

Except that Wisconsin has no mountains, no oceans, and no arts schoolers. No arts schoolers within hundreds of miles. What will I do without you guys? I can't imagine being that far away.

I get to go to CONada after all! The registrar plead my case, and it worked! Now I have to readjust to the idea of going to Con and of not being in shock ( Read more... )

Things can always get worse.
Mr. C says the right things at entirely the wrong times. Today was slightly better than yesterday, but I'm still a little beat up inside.
If I don't get more money from Beloit or Linfield, I won't be able to afford either. Stupid financial aid stuff that doesn't take things like child support and multiple college-bound ( Read more... )

I was impressed.

Sooo.... schedule this week? Anyone?

Mr. C tells me (with some frustration) that I need to stop being so critical of myself, or just leave so it can be someone else's problem.  Probably a good idea, but I do it so I won't be as disappointed in myself if things really go badly... or something. But anyway. The showcase went infinitely better than I'd expected. Sarah and I kicked butt at ( Read more... )

This week really has been jam packed and amazing. Much as I dislike stress and having to sit still for hours on end, show weeks are my favorite of the year. I adore playing in the pit, I really don't think there could be anything better. And everyone's doing such a great job, it makes it even better.

Yesterday was a day of random extremes. AWE went ( Read more... )

Quotes of the day are from GH (Who finally brought us our grasshoppers):
