looks like there's a fire in the snow
so "a lie of the mind" was last weekend. it went okay. i mean besides the fact that i still was having to go over lighting cues with the light designer before the saturday night performance...which isn't supposed to happen and i was really stressed out. oh and besides that fact that on opening day i accidentally ruined the cd's and we had to burn all new ones and i felt HORRIBLE about it all. but in the end it all turned out okay but i am so glad it's over! much less stress in my life now. only my mum got to come see the show. that was kind of sad, i wish more people had got to come see it, but oh well. after she saw it we went to village inn and talked for i think almost two hours and that was really nice. we haven't just talked to each other like that in a long time, withouth being interupted or getting into a fight or something. i went to the cast party that night too, but that wasn't too fun for me. none of my good friends were there, and i wasn't drinking. it was amusing to see mar get upset at emily for her phone going off during the show, which was really dumb anyhow. apparently dave and i are dating again. i guess we weren't even on the same page with that one. he thought we were still dating and i didn't think we were. but now we are. i'm to the point now where it's really not a big deal anymore. i like spending time with him, and i still like him and all that but i dunno. it's cool, whatever. i have so much stuff going on right now that i'm not going to spend extra time worrying about it. it's just cool that we can spend time together and have fun when we do. i still think it's funny though that he thought we were dating and i didn't...i dunno why though i just do. anyhow.
i had my costume fitting for "much ado..." today. my costume is going to be pretty goofy. partly because i'm dressed like a boy, and partly because my character is supposed to look goofy. my pants are really big and so is my shirt. i'm mostly just glad i don' thave to cut my hair or anything! so that's exciting. i was worried i was going to have to get a bowl cut or something weird like that. but apparently my hair length is what they want all the guys to aspire to...which maybe i should be offended by...? haha but i'm not.
rehearsals for katie's ten minute scene have been going okay too. especially compared to what i've been hearing about other people's ten minute scenes! which i find to be pretty funny really. and i'm glad that scott and i don't have to make out now, just a little peck. which is still awkward because it's scott...but oh well. that's still much better. now i just have to finish my memorizing! and tonight after rehearsal i'm seeing "brokeback mountain" with my mum. i hope it's not too boring because i might fall asleep! school has been wearing me out. almost every night this week i fell asleep doing some sort of homework, then i'd wake up around 2am with the tv on and a book in my lap. it was strange. this week probably won't be much better since it's midterm week. blah. i have two papers to write (one of which i have NO CLUE what to do still, since i have NO INFORMATION!!! it's the one about my family's immigration and no one knows anything and i haven't been able to really find anything either. so here's to making up something!), two tests, a book to read, along with final rehearsals and a performance of katie's scene, and whatever work i get scheduled for. but then it's spring break!!! so i'm looking forward to that and next weekend dad will be in town too, so that's another thing to look forward to. so i just hope i can surivive this next week, then things should somewhat slow down for a little bit before they pick right back up again until the semester, and my st. ambrose experience, ends! eeek!
also, i've had like five people ask me if i've lost weight recently so that's been pretty cool. i know i have, not sure how much exactly, but i have. but it feels good when other people notice too. especially when it's someone other than my mum. one person even said she could tell my face was thinner...i can't see that, but i'll take it anyway! and i know i've been eating a lot less. not really on purpose or anything, i just really can't eat a lot anymore. i get full much faster than i used to. and i almost always should be wearing a belt with my pants (though i usually don't because i'm not used to it). so i'm feeling pretty good about that! :)
