K-Town, Beachslam, and Summer Players
So I just got back from my first summer trip to Kingston. I freakin' love it there. I stayed at SBS' house because mine is not yet ready for me (i don't have a bed yet). It was really fun. She had lots of players reherasals so i spent much time at her house with her housemate and kitten (sooo sweeet).
Here's a quick recap of the events:
Saturday:I got there, SBS wasn't home.. and then she was and let me in. I went out for dinner with a bushel of my 4th year (now graduated) friends (including Hope who i hadn't seen in SOOo long and missed terribly).
Sunday: I went for a grocery shop with SBS' housemate... and.... i think that was all.....
Monday: Sbs and i went for a mighty adventure downtown and then to the paint store up town to buy paint for my new room. It was quite the exciting adventure with the busses and a nice lady who told us which one to get on.. THAnks Lady! Monday night, Sbs went off to a PLayer's reherasal and i went off to my house for a pre beachslam party/games night. It was HILARIOUS! we played a game called Apples to Apples and we had to come up with the best noun for the adjective.. with cards... it's really very fun.. ANYWAY, the best one was "Unscrupulous Anne Frank". We howled.. and we were getting drunk so things were funnier anyway. Beachslam was a party and a half. Lots of dancing, lots of beach. My TA won a bike in a booty shaking competition. SBS showed up with the Players people and bikini tops. So we put them on and danced (the bikini tops, not the players people). I went back to TA and Utown Vocal D's house for a sleepover. It was lovely.
Tuesday: Painted.... painted with SBs... called in some favours when we realised that we are both 5 feet tall and couldn't reach the ceiling for touch ups. oops. Had an easy night by the TV with movies...
Wednesday: Painted... Went to players.... got HAMMED. I mean SERIOUSLY hammed. i sat with TA, BatBoy, and Coach's sis... Me and Coach's sis shared a pitcher of Sex on the Beach.. and then i shared another one with TA. All in all i had a whole pitcher... wuh. It was BatBoy's birthday... we danced.. we sang... we were in the third row and LOVED players... In the true spirit of the show, i have no idea what happened.... i mean NO idea. there was singing... and we drank and it was a good time. AFterwards TA, Coach, and i went to Stages to see if we could get the bike.. they said come back tomorrow... (which TA did and GOt the bike.. woot). Then she walked me home and Coach went to the Brass with the rest of the players. I curled up infront of the TV with Alice and Wonderland playing and the kitty in between my ankles. it was very sweet... until she started batting at my face.. then i chucked her off of me and she came back and snuggled all night.
Thurday (today): Painted... LoJo helped.... sat on my roof... painted some more.. and took the train home with Bobby (who also helped paint along with Utown Vocal D on different days). Tonight i saw LOTR with my parentals... it was quite a spectacle... too much story for a musical.. it didn't lend itself well.. meh. The effects were fab and i'm sure they were a Stage Manager's nightmare.
Aight, i'm off to bed for i am TRES tired from all the fun that was this week.

PS. If you switch two letters in "oops" you can get "poos".. hahaha
