UH YEAHHHHHH
I am sitting in my new apartment. And I am finally all settled in. Living on my own is a lot better than I thought it would be. Except I'm not working at this present moment so it will probably suck once I have to go back to work. There is so much dance space! Taking the bus is annoying, but I am figuring it out. Plus there is a beautiful park by the theatre so whenever I'm early I can walk over there (it has a gazebo and a fountain!) My bank account however is basically empty which is the tough part. Luckily I have some awesome parents to help me out.
My last paycheck was a beautiful $450 dollars. And guess who got it? Thats right. The guy across the street from Tina's whose car i hit. Grrrrrr....I guess it could've been worse but that was two weeks of extremely hard back-breaking work. So there. My fault. Stupid Katie.
Rehearsal is REALLY awesome. I have a few complaints, but I won't whine about them here, mostly because (thanks Alysha) Alysha made me feel a lot better about them yesterday. However, I would really like to discuss style choices with the director and the preconditions of the society she is placing us in. The songs are SO much fun- I love Cole Porter anyways so this is a sweet treat. The cast is lovely and talented, and I try not to be intimidated by their great character choices. I am the youngest cast member and I feel like a baby- when all Olivia's people are around me I am by far the tiniest. But I am so jazzed to finally be able to do Shakespeare- I feel really natural in the style and I feel that I fit into it better than contemporary plays. But we'll see. I'll just have my fun and be careful with my voice. But the music director praised my voice over and over at rehearsals so I am starting to feel a bit better about the problems I'm having in my lower range. And I get to choreograph a dance that Olivia and Sebastian do- ha I just have to make Sebastian feel comfortable enough around me to actually touch me...I think he is scared of me?? or something to that effect. But I've gone out of my way to talk to him and make friends so he really should'nt be.
SUNNN TIMEEEE!
