Ohhhhh today was awesome. Church this morning was nice (even though an alarm mishap meant my roomie and I had twenty minutes to get ready beforehand), and the Pepperdine basketball game afterwards was also fun. I love going to athletic events - need to do more of them, in fact - and in an effort to get students to attend this game, which is right before formals, they were giving out free pie, free coffee/coffee drinks made to order (think portable Starbucks), and free ten-minute massages. Needless to say, I thoroughly enjoyed the freebies, then thoroughly enjoyed the game. I love going to games - it gives me an excuse to get excited and yell like a crazy person. All that stress has to go somewhere! 8D
Cut short my time at the game in order to go to Jane Austen improv.
Yes, you read that right. It was an improv comedy show - an entire improv play in the style of Jane Austen. I absolutely loved it. Highlights included a brooding character with a penchant but not an aptitude for jokes (though the joke about bananas and "ap-peel-ing" came up more than once) and playing a card game called "'Round the Maybe." A maybe is evidently a small goat-like creature. Make of this what you will - we all highly enjoyed it. XDb
This was followed by dinner at an authentic Polish restaurant at the insistence suggestion of
orelle_peredhil. I will dream about those potato pancakes.
And now I am here, working on my monologue analysis. I have to come up with long- and short-term background for the character delivering the monologue, who doesn't have a name, let alone any of that stuff. Sound familiar, anyone? XD
Tonight is the free breakfast (probably not going), my SLA's little get together (probably am going), and the return of the five-minute "rave" in front of the library (definitely going). Wonder how long it'll take Public Safety to break this one up. Either way, good times. :Db
