So, friendslist? You might want to head over to citharize, as I'm moving journals over there. Some (read: almost all of you) are already friended over there, and if you're not and you'd like to be, let me know by commenting on this post or on the new journal. The switch isn't to avoid anyone, to escape any past drama, or anything like that. It's just ( Read more... )

It's been a frustrating day. I've broken several pieces of furniture while moving them, and I'm having difficulty dealing with my Spanish teacher-- I understand her not giving credit for the class unless you have the homework finished, yes. What I do not understand is why she refused to accept my homework when I went to turn it in, because it was ( Read more... )

Cabaret vs. The Cure at Troy, a modern adaptation of Sophocles' Philoctetes. This weekend I got to watch a musical about sex in Nazi Germany and a play about a soldier with a stinky foot. For all intents and purposes, The Cure at Troy should've been awesome-- local theatre, actors I know, a story I had to read for class last year, and one of the ( Read more... )

"Your mom and I went and saw Smart People last night."

"How was that?"

"Depressing." My dad pauses, swallowing. "It's about a burnt-out English professor and his daughter, who's growing up just as solitary and unhappy as her dad."

I can't help laughing. So that's two roles scarily close to my life that Ellen Page has played.

Wow, this day has been crazy. One good thing followed by one bad thing in quick succession ( Read more... )

Upon waking up this morning (well, afternoon... being unemployed and not in school contributes to an interesting sleeping schedule), I had to remind myself that:

• my girlfriend was not dead, thank Heaven,
  
• I hadn't gotten into a car accident, and the other driver had not been so angry that he would punch me, and
  
• God had not caught me having sex in ( Read more... )

Audition went... okay, I guess. The two professors seemed to like the pieces I chose, and were even laughing when I did the Jane Martin piece, especially when I flipped them off at the end. They wanted me to tap into more rage when I did the Shepard piece, encouraging me to get really loud and physical. The interview portion went less than ( Read more... )

Like a good little girl, I'm supposed to be working. However, I am not a good little girl, I'm a rather mercurial blogger, so I'm wasting time.

Everyone has things they blog about. Everyone has things they don't blog about. Challenge me out of my comfort zone by telling me something I don't blog about, but you'd like to hear about, and I'll write ( Read more... )

Thanks to everyone who held on without getting a proper introduction post. Hi, guys! My life's been a bit, uh, weird the last couple of days. Not that it isn't usually, but the kind of weird that doesn't steer me towards updating ( Read more... )
