SA of the Year!
Tonight was the MOB’s end of year banquet where they recap the year and presents awards and stuff. Quick background info, the MOB is Rice’s Marching Owl Band, but we don’t actually march.

Post-Post hurricane Rita
I did promise to post an update about hurricane Rita. Well, it was a bust, she turned and hit east of us as a category 3 or 4, so although we did get the northwest corner, it wasn’t that spectacular.

King Lear, III
King Lear is over with. I actually find it sad that it’s over. This past hell week has actually been one of the best weeks of my Senior year, if not my time at TJ ( Read more... ) -
King Lear, II
Yay for dancing in the dark. Yay for glow. Yay for Circle, for spinning, for pennies, for waking up the stage, for the roller coaster, and for pudding in the mix. Yay for friends, for relaxing, and for having fun. Yay for performing, for stage fright, for hell week, for makeup and binding and costumes. Yay for feeling alive ( Read more... )
