• In writing an email just not to ember_ashes, I have just realized how, even though my weeks are essentially free as a bird at this point (sorry to all those still embroiled in classwork) (well, and I'm about to have to grade 85 essays in ten days and then exams right after), my weekends are booked solid, more so than I really thought. It's very odd. I have ( Read more... )

SO MANY THINGS have been going on. AMONG THEM:

- Well, not revising my thesis! Not yet. I need to email Prof Big Cheese and clarify a few things from the defense before I get started. My committee wants to see the revised Introduction by Friday, so I have time.

- Gilgamesh opened! ciaan came, which was NIFTY! I also went to the designers' grad pad ( Read more... )

Thing the first-

Remember how last night I was flailing in worry about the notes I left in my Gilgamesh director's box after the run-through last night? We got in a detailed schedule for the issues that will be worked tomorrow and like. IT HAS SEVERAL OF MY NOTES INCORPORATED. \o/ I feel MADE OF DRAMATURGICAL WIN ( Read more... )

Let it be said-

I am enjoying being here for tech, but MAN- I really do want to watch Doctor WhoLE SIGH ( Read more... )

So I am currently sitting in the theatre, hanging out during a respite in the second day of Gilgamesh tech. I am absolutely useless, but I can't deny the fact that I'm really, REALLY happy to be seeing this process again- especially one as snazzy as this. Theatre at Haverford was all done on the cheap, drawing more from the director's own bank ( Read more... )

I came in this morning to build my lobby display for Gilgamesh and it is TOTALLY HOT.

( BEHOLD! )

I am camped out in the office once more, working on the Thesis of Doom. I'm SO CLOSE, y'all- I finally have all the resources in hand that I wanted to use and just have to do a complete readthrough. Readthroughs are always horrid but valuable- I'm tweaking lots of things for clarity and I just want to TAKE A VIDEO AND SHOW MY STUDENTS THAT ( Read more... )

MAN OH MAN some days I feel like a nut a girl. I've been saying for the last 6 months that my next haircut would be a big change, one that would cut out all of the blue streaks that have slowly but surely turned to straw in the past 10 months. I resolved to take the plunge after my prospectus defense... but then forgot that I would be in the midst ( Read more... )

Last night, I had The Finals Week Dream- you know the one. I was suddenly informed that I was enrolled in a class I thought I'd dropped and I was already late turning in the final essay, but I had 24 hours to get something in. I was in such a panic that I forced myself to wake up so I could get to work roundabout 2AM last night... and then ( Read more... )

Last night, I spent a lovely evening with Natalie and Ara, eating more pizza than I thought was physically possible and doing our best to play a Gilmore Girls drinking game as we watched episodes from the start of Season 4. We started off too cautious with our drinking rules, but by the final episode we made it through we'd added OODLES of new ( Read more... )
