And thus, life can return to "normal"

Last night was the final performance of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, in which I was a player (as in, part of the troupe of actors within the play). It's been an amazing two weeks which have just flown by. What a fantastic production to (possibly) end my time with NUTS. It's been 5 years, now, I think I really need to move on

Hi Michelle.
I went to watch R&G on Friday and thoroughly enjoyed myself. Hope it was a memorable run. Nice hair!!

Hi April!
Glad you enjoyed it! Wish I'd been able to catch you afterwards, it's been too long since we caught up. I'm enjoying reading your LJ - sorry I don't comment much :)

Five years of acting?

[framstag]

Why do you want to move on? Or was it 'just for fun' acting? You still could do that... except if you had a lot to do. I thought about acting from time to time, but I'm not good in that... okay, with my acting skills, I can work in average soap operas and telenovelas.

It's a nice hair colour if you ask me (nobody does usually *sob*). Not too different from your real colour, and a natural looking one (not pink or tomato red). What are you doing now? Last thing I remember was that you worked as a nurse (or did you think about it?).

Yeah acting was always just a bit of fun on the side during uni, I'm not interested in it any further than that - I have many other interests I want to pursue in my life, most of which I haven't been able to because acting and teching shows has taken up so much of my time in the last 5 years.

And thank you, re the hair colour :D

I'm working as a secretary, as explained in earlier posts.

Secretary? *blushes* Ouch! Sorry. I mixed that up with one of your choices then (IIRC, I said something stupid).

But I suppose your next step will be assistant of the upper management, just to make you a top manager...

I was looking for "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead", but the German translation doesn't seem to be at hand at any bookstore. The description was very interesting ("a bit like Waiting For Godot"), and since I love Godot, I'd love to read the play. My English skills are too low for reading the original. (Is that lost in translation?)

Re: Five years of acting?

It's ok, don't worry :)

No plans to continue this secretarial/assistant business! It's a post-grad's life for me as soon as I get accepted (as also previously stated in my LJ)

Um I think a good translation would be ok, but there is a fair amount of word play involved in the play. If you come across one in German, give it a try, but maybe only borrow an English version from a library to give it a try?

Awww, what a cute li'l slothy pineapple... I could eat you up, but 1) It wouldn't be good for my health (due to getting my behind kicked) and 2) It wouldn't be good for my health, having so much sweets.

[shelie]

Slothy???

You look so lazy in your avatar picture.

That, my dear, is the face of severe sleep deprivation :p
