Portrait of a Girl
So... I guess it's been awhile. Sucks how that ends up happening. Hopefully this won't be too long...
But who am I kidding, it probably will be.
Um... So... Wednesday the... Whatever... I watched Bare that morning, which means I probs didn't have to be at school until later. And I believe it was Dress Rehearsal. Which went REALLY well... As far as I can remember? But very high stress. Very very high stress.
Thursday I had more Heart of Darkness in Lit, some little sewing things to do, and then we had Preview. Which was a gong show, I'm pretty sure.
Friday was Opening, and we totes didn't have to be in until the afternoon! It was AWESOME. Opening went... Relatively well for Wardrobe, I think.
After Opening we went out to Brado's (as per usual). I hung out with Crystal, Kate, Kate's friend, Chris, and Nolan for most of the night, and then headed off with Izzy, Erika, Celyne, Wendelynn, William, and probably some other people to Denny's for 3am breakfast. Which is totally going to be a tradition next year. Ah ha ha! I love 3am Denny's.
Saturday we had most of the day off, and then another show at night. It went well, as far as I can remember. Dressing always takes a little time to get into a good groove... But yeah. It was nice.
Sunday we had two shows, and both went well? I don't know, it was a long time ago, ha ha.
Monday classes started up again, and it was also totes Dark Day. So that was awesome. I'm pretty sure I did a little grocery shopping, and did some laundry. And I'm pretty sure it was great.
Tuesday - Friday was all the same. Classes then a show. Nothing super exciting happened, as far as I can remember.
Saturday was Closing, and it went SO WELL. It was kind of crazy. Some people went out, I went home. Because we had Strike the next day at 8am.
Strike went well. We took out all of our alterations, and me and Morgan were sent to clean Wardrobe Storage. Which we did. With funny costumes. Good times ensued. Wardrobe Storage is just kind of awesome. We had to be done by 3, and apparently not everything was finished, so we went back Monday after class and finished up. I helped Props clean Props Storage. There is some interesting stuff up there, I have to say.
Tuesday we got let out of Lighting really early, so me and Izzy went on a car wash adventure. It was quite delightful, as they usually are.
Wednesday - Thursday I only had classes. And that was weird. Like... Really weird. I only had four days like that this semester up until then. Time off makes me really, really, really bored...
Friday after class me and Izzy decided it would be fun to see a movie that night. So she looked up the times when we got home and we decided to go see How to Train Your Dragon. It was SO GOOD. I really liked it. Part way through the movie we decided Izzy was def totes Toothless, the dragon, and I was Hiccup, the loser misfit viking. It was really, really fun.
Saturday was my first day off in 35 days, and oh what a glorious day it was. I cleaned my room really well and then went to the Alberta Art Gallery. They have a Degas exhibit, and Degas is ind of my favorite artist ever, so I had to go. It was really fun. The Degas stuff was all amazing. I spend most of my time in there, but there were also exhibits on Goya and Karsh, and then some other cool ones. There was one called The Murder of Crows which was an audio exhibit. It was a white room with speakers set up everywhere, and a gramophone in the center. A recording of a woman talking about dreams about wars played with music and sound effects and it was super cool.
Sunday I went to West Ed and shopped and spent some gift certificates I had. I got a shirt at American Eagle, 2 of the Alice in Wonderland nail polishes, Post Grad, and a bear from Build-a-Bear. It was fun. I like shopping, and the hunting for the Alice in Wonderland nail polish was an adventure and a half.
Monday classes as per usual.
Tuesday after class me and Morgan ventured over to see the Theatre Arts kids cabarets. They were really good. Basically they have to put on 20 minute performances with songs and such. They have to do one song with at least one other person, and either a medley or a parody. Tuesday night Brian parodied "I Don't Wanna Show Off No More" to "I Don't Wanna Jerk Off No More." That was REALLY funny. Bracken's cabaret was really good, also. Definitely my favorite, I think.
Wednesday I went back to the cabarets with Kaitlin. There were lot's of supper hilarious parodies that night. Liike... Tim - A Whole New World "I'll Rule The World", Ashley W - Defying Gravity "I've Got A Cavity", Chelsea - Good Morning, Baltimore "I'll Kill You Voldemort", and Nolan - Pretty Women "Fluffy Kittens." Good times. Tim, Matt B, and Jesse also sang Big Ass Rock, which was too awesome for words.
Also on this night I texted my mom and said I really wanted to come home for the weekend... Ad by the end of the cabarets I had my tickets! it was super cool.
Thursday I had class, then me, Izzy, Celyne, and Anna ventured across to Ceili's (an Irish pub) for $5 fish and chips, but it was way too busy, so we went to a different pub on Jasper instead. It was really fun. I didn't drink (of course) and I was the only one, so I got the lovely new nickname of "Kid's Corner." Yup. I'm awesome.
After the pub we went back to Res and watched Breakfast on Pluto, which seemed really good and I will have to watch more in depth sometime.
Around 10:45 Izzy drove me to the bus depot and dropped me off. I got my ticket and whatevs, and my bus left at midnight.
I read for a little bit, and listened to music and I actually slept and it was AWESOME. Hacing two seats on a bus really makes a difference.
I got in Friday morning at 8:30 (time change. yay.) and my dad picked me up. I spent Friday just hanging around. My brother was supposed to get in Friday afternoon, but his flight was cancelled and he was rebooked for the next day.
I dyed some eggs and they were awesome, so that's cool. I was super tired though, so I went to bed really early.
Saturday I hung around with my family watching ridiculous old home movies of when I was a baby. Apparently my parents gave me crackers to shut me up, since I cried so much. Also... My brother kicked me in the head and pushed me over. In one video.
After supper I drove into town and picked Amanda up and we went to Blockbuster to rent some movies. We got 500 Days of Summer, Whip It, and Julie & Julia. They were all really good, and hanging out with Amanda until 3:00 in the morning was fun too.
This morning I woke up and got chocolate. I had already gotten my Easter presents in the mail, since my mom didn't think I'd be home. I got Love is the Higher Law by David Levithan, Broadway Bound by Jen Calonita, Fourth Comings by Megan McSomethingerother, Grease, and a new shirt. Quite delightful. :)
ETA: New layout! It's about time I had a Glee one, I figure. Mood theme to follow, hopefully.
