Wow
It has been some looong time since I last updated, but you knew that. Life has been insane -- papers, midterms, going home for thanksgiving, got the student caller job, feel like I'm in grade ten all over again, really miss being in charge, but other than that... I'm doing well. A couple girls asked me if I was engaged today. : ) Halloween is a big up-in-the-air... Atomic Vaudeville's this weekend! Somebody come with me, or else I'll just Marina along again. I'm starting to learn my classmates' names... well, the theatre kids anyway. Very few people outside of theatre talk to me... except mEn. mEn's in my english class.
Charles: Now, be careful, because I'm the only one wearing steel toed boots.
Me: Ah-hem... *lifts up foot*
Charles: You're wearing steel toed boots??
Me: Yup!
Charles: Lemme see!
Needless to say, I was very proud. And a huge show off, but no one cares much.
I miss the drama room... seriously, every time I do a crummy job, instantly I think, "eh... they're poor." Sometimes I even shrug. I will never be rid of Lughnasa. It will follow me around like... a demon puppy dog. But I wouldn't give it up for anything... I miss having even four walls and a roof under my semi-control... Need rehearsal space? Kick the grade tens out. Need quiet time? Go to the Green Room. Need something done? Do it. Or get someone else to. Now, every time I see someone I don't recognize, I revert to my fourteen year old "Oh no big scary person DON'T MAKE EYE CONTACT look at ground... nice ground... okay they're gone." It took three years of Speirs madness and Amy worship and Tom magic and Linsae love and Brent fun and Love snarkness and Xtina randomness and Scott mockery and Naomi wonderfulness and Melissa yelling and Kirk and Tanya and Amanda Martini and Alex Geoffrey and Kathleen and Steffi and more than anything, Gus, to make me think, hey, this is my room. Back off.
