Yup thats right. ISF is done with me. All 3 shows have opened. And they all turned out preaty well I think. Now as long as the run crew doesnt destory the set while loading it in and out, every show should rock. In my opinion I enjoyed Comedy of Errors the best followed by Julius Ceasar, with Pericles as my last choice. All the sets really rock. I just wasnt into the story of Pericles, but I did enjoy going to see a show that night. So I'll probably be going back a few more times to party once with the ISF peeps and then a few days to do time lapses of the loadin/outs. Should be fun, espically since I get to see everyone again. I just hope I dont get bored during the day, its not like i can go to my room and sleep (i dont have a room while there), so i'll probably spend some time walking threw the mall or other shopping. Maybe if its cool enough I'll just take some long walks (on a short pier. :-P Maybe the comedy pier. Haha, i make myslef laugh) So anyway..... Nothing else really exciting about ISF. The weather hasnt been passed on, but don't worry ISF peeps, it will be. Its that or I'll just have to update it while I'm there.
Sunday was a crazy day. I leave Bloomington IL at 6:30 without saying goodbye to anyone. :-( Although it might have been a good thing since im not good at goodbyes but then again its hard just to leave. So back to my story of sunday. So i get back home to Naperthrill at 8. I unpack my stuff. Say hi to everyone and was back on the road by 8:30. Why you might ask? We'll Terry asked me to help him move so I was off to Indiana to help. I got to his place at 10:30 (after spending 30 min getting lost) and we packed the truck till 7:00 at which point I left and come home ariving at home at 10:00. All those times are central. Yes it took me 1.5 hours to get to terry and 3 to get home. @#$%@# backups. It was cool helping terry. I dont know how he would have done it by himslef. It was also cool to see Alek, terry's baby. He's so cute, and looks just like terry with the long eyelashes. Alek was good for the first part of the packing and then he got alittle cranky. He just wanted to be held.
Since then I have been really bored. I wish I was on run crew for ISF cause it would atleast keep me busy. All my friends in Naperthrill work during the day. where as if i was doing ISF all my friends would be working the same hours. I did get a chance to work on some drafting. and I worked on my online portfolio some more. both seem like an endless battle.
Oh my, I almost forgot. I got to see Wicked yesterday. I really liked it. Even though I kept saying to myslef, "I know how they did that", it was still fun. I love how well it fit into the story of Wizard of Oz. It all made sence to what I remember. I will be getting real fimilar with Woz too since I'm designing it. And we'll see if I find anything that doesnt jive.
I find it ironic how I kept talking about courage in my away messages and I'm working on WoZ. How interesting. I really should just stop talking about not having courage cause it isnt helping anything. It's not like other people are going to change just cause I have more courage. (or will they?) Damn there I go again, overthinking everything and not knowing the truth. I wish there was a magic ball that could answer my questions without any reprocussions of hurt feelings. ok chris, its time to stop talking about this because its not getting you anywhere. you've had many people (even outside of people from ISF) tell you what to do. Yeah but..... No buts just do it and left the chips fall where they may. Even if nothing happens it will probably be better in the long run. Yeah I guess your right.
(hehe you like that. that we me talking to myself)
I guess that about it. I'm sure I'm forgetting something. hmmm..... some guys can be jerks.......... I hope im not one....... hmmmm....... I want to travel somewhere.......... no place in particular........... damn gas is high...........
I leave you with a couple things I found on myspace that I would like to share with you.

Pretty good tips for relationships
this was written by a man who has dealt with enough girls to understand them. READ.
hahaha, it's almost like a girl wrote these. =). deadon.
1. Whatever you do, don't just show up at their house [without notice]...they run around in their underwear just like we do.
2. DON'T CHEAT ON THEM. It may seem foolproof, but girls tell each other everything about everything. Trust me, they WILL find out and you will be mud.
3. Beware of every single male relative and all guy friends. Any of them would kick your ass at the drop of a hat, and a lot of them wouldn't even wait for the hat.
4. NEVER miss an opportunity to tell them they're beautiful.
5. DON'T refuse to kiss in front of your friends. If they laugh at you, it's because they're jealous.
6. If they slap you hard, you deserved it.
7. Don't be afraid to touch them if you want to. If they're going out with you in the first place, it's because they like being in your arms.
8. If you don't sleep with them, DO NOT tell your friends that you did.
8.5 If you DO sleep with them, DON'T tell your friends that you did.
9. You can be dirty minded in private, really...most of them are not offended by it...
10. Not all of them eat like birds, a lot of them can eat like whales.
11. Most of them don't mind paying half of everything, but they do discuss these things with their friends. Realize that if you make your girlfriend pay half all the time, everyone will know about it and your friends will know you're a pussy..
11. Do you honestly need all your money that much? Be a man, pay all the time!
12. Every girl should eventually get three things from her boyfriend- a stuffed animal, ONE OF HIS SWEATSHIRTS, and a really PRETTY RING (plastic ones from machines count). Even if it's not a serious relationship.
13. Make sure she gets home safely as often as you can. If you're dropping her off, walk her to the door. If you aren't dropping her off, call to be sure she's home safely.
14. If a guy is bothering her, it is your right to beat the shit out of him.
15. If you're talking to a female friend of yours, PULL YOUR GIRLFRIEND CLOSER.
16. NEVER, ever slap her, even if it's just in a joking way. Even if she swats you first, and says, "Oh, you're so dumb" or something, never make any gestures back.
17. Go to a chick flick once in a while. She doesn't care whether you enjoy it or not, it just matters that you went.
18. You're dead meat if you can't get along with their pets, parents, and best friends. Be prince charming to their friends, Mr. Polite to their parents, and make sure to be nice to their animals.
19. Don't flirt with their moms...that's just freaky.
20. Don't be freaked out by PMS. It's not gross, and it really does make them feel like shit, so be understanding.
21. If you don't like the way they drive, you do it.
22. If you're officially dating, and you're introducing her to your friends, you'd better damn well introduce her as your girlfriend.
23. Don't stress where you go for every date. They really only want to be with you.
24. If they complain that something hurts, rub it for them WITHOUT being asked.
25. Girls are fragile. Even if you're play fighting/wrestling, be very gentle.
26. Memorize their birthdays. You forget her birthday and you're basically screwed for life.
27. Don't marinade the cologne, but smell good.
28. Don't give her something stupid for her birthday or Christmas or Valentine's day. It doesn't have to be expensive, but it has to be meaningful.
29. If you think the relationship isn't going to last, don't wait to find out. It will only hurt her more if you draw it out.
30. After you've been dating for a while, realize that they really have started to trust you. When you have a girlfriend who truly trusts you, you have a lot more responsibility, privilege and control than you would think. Be careful with it, most guys would kill for that kind of power, and it can be lost in a nanosecond.
31. NEVER in your life blow her off to hang out with your friends. In case you havent noticed she blows off her FRIENDS to hang out with YOU. If you know you dont have anything to do and you know she wants to see you..GO SEE HER! when you blow her off it makes her feel like she is less important to you than your friends are. If your friends are more important to you then you're a dumbass and should let her know before you hurt her anymore.
31. Include her in things you do. Introduce her to your friends and family and take her along when you go out with them. That way she doesnt feel disregarded or left out.
32. NEVER, and i mean NEVER make her do anything she doesn't wanna do. Because if you do she'll think that you're only after one thing. (and i think you all know what that is)
(If you have read this and you are a girl, then some of these things are actually really true...am I right?! And if you read this and you are a guy, then these are like the best tips you could ever get!)
You now have 2 options...
1) Repost this bulletin and you will have good luck in all your relationships.
2) Ignore this, and you will have bad luck in all your relationships...now you wouldn't want that, would you?
Re-post so EVERY GUY will know how to treat a lady
repost this as.."Pretty good tips for relationships"
