| Hello all.
I have not been here in a while. It seems as though all my entires have started out that way lately. Oh well. I am currently in rehearsal for "Ragtime" at NJPAC. We open in 9 days. I actually think we are ready for the most part. We shall see how it goes once we add costumes, lights, sound and computer images. We move into the theater today. Very exciting!!
My 4th of July was fine if relatively uneventful. I layed around for most of the day...my last day off until we open...then my parents got home around 3. I had to help them unpack and then Alex called so I went to her house for a little while. I ended up going to the fireworks in Maplewood with Alex, Amanda, Melissa, Julie and Brendan. After we all went back to Manda's where Brett and Abbey were there with the baby...seriously the most beautiful baby I have ever seen. We hung out there for a little while and then they were all going to a party but I had to go home to get up this morning for work/rehearsal...
So here I am at my desk with no task at hand...
Well I should be a good girl and get back to work...
I will attempt to update again soon. | | |
| Wow...I have not been here in FOREVER!!!! I am not even going to try an recap what happened since January 24 or whatever. Man, when I think of all that has happened in that time it almost scares me. The ups and downs have probab;y been some of the greatest of my life.
Well I am quickly approaching the end of my high school career. How scary is that??? Where did the last 4 years go? I had been waiting so long to be the lead in my high school musical and perform my senior spotlight...and it all came or has already past. I know that I have greater and bigger things ahead in college and beyond but I really feel like I am leaving my whole world behind come August. Perhaps I'm being dramatic. But I guess that is what change does to me...
I am still trying to decide where I am going next year. I did overnights at Drew and Mount Holyoke and I will be at Muhlenberg on Wednesday. We shall see.
Today was a pretty good day. I was home because today was a teacher in-service. Dad and I drove home from VT last night and I stayed up to late watching the Keira Knightly version of "Pride and Prejudice" (the Colin Firth version is better). I woke up semi-early this morning and drove to my voice lesson. Then I got an emergency call from Kyle so I went to the mall to help him pick out a tie for his prom. Then I came home and worked on my English project. When Dad got home we ordered pizza and then we attempted to watch "Our Town" but Dad fell asleep...as usual. And here I am.
I guess that will have to do. Sorry about the big gap in the entries. There was something wrong with my password on this site.
Later! | | |
| END OF THE FIRST SEMESTER!!!
Rehearsal continues to be a blast...even though we have to go in from 9-3 tomorrow which is a day off...
I had a really fun weekend. Spent Friday with Liss, Alex and Julie and we watched "Just Marrief"...lol...cute movie....Saturday I had a voice lesson and babysat for the Meisels who I love!! And today i had another voice lesson...coming down on the wire for these college auditions. Then I went to see Brokeback Mountain with a group of my school friends. The movie was excellent. Worth seeing for sure...and not only because it is probably going to win Best Picture.
Later! | | |
