day 21 whatever
today was absolutely beautiful.
gorgeous.
saw “kiss me kate.”
it was really good.
i learned today that you can totally not expect something you totally expected to happen.
people won’t change. and people move on.
things are meant to be, and you’re always better off.
what goes around comes around, you just have to be patient.
i can’t let people bring me down.
i...

today in sociology we started watching “the crucible,” which ive seen before and i totally love. but i was really starting to notice something….winona ryder is godddd awful. not talented. shes just stupid.
in my intro to film teacher was at a conference so a sub was there to turn on “ratatouie” and basically told us to turn...
day 19 and another hundred people just got off of...
just got back from rehearsal. i feel like im getting better. i just need to be confident in myself and just do it! i’m getting better, my acting skills are definitely starting to suck less.
today i actually woke up at a reasonable hour (even though i strongly attempted to go to bed before 2am, and failed, falling asleep around 3am), actually dressed like a human being today, and did NOT...
day 18 lets rock this joint
today was my dance call back. i had to miss a class (which i wasnt too excited about, buttttt you gotta do what you gotta do) and by the grace of god, sociology was let out early, so lukcily i didnt have to awkwardly walk out 15 minutes before the class ended.
the dance call went okay. i miss dancing. i felt not as confident as i usually am when i danced today.
company rehearsal tonight, it was...
can't deal
i’m just so tired of everything. im completely exhausted. the second i have a moment to sit, i have something else to do and i cant focus. i need to take a break from everything. im so sick of everything. im just not having it right now. i honestly dont feel happy today
day 17...totally missed day 16
ok. yesterday, saturday, i had an audition. i didnt wake up in time becuase we had the surprise krisnte/taylor event. i woke up a little after i meant to but i got to the audition pretty much on time. once i got there, they told me to sing at 5:16. a smart person wouldve stayed in the city. but no. i didnt. i wet back to hofstra and bought rainboots and threw on jeans (it was the freakin...
ay ay ay
didn’t go to sociology or intro to film today. i probably would’ve slept in later, but, even after the shit load of alarms that went off, the only thing that woke me up was the thought that i had to straighten my hair
michelle took kristen and i to go get fabric/clothes for our costumes and booze for discoglobe. sooo excited!!
we came back and i had a killer two hour nap, which was...
day 15 still awake
i’m still up. i finished choreographing my speech project, just finished my laundry, got out of the shower, and am now gulping down some milk.
while showering, the usual couple that showers together, did whatever the fack they’re doing in the shower while i was in the adjacent shower. this is, i believe, the 4th night in a row. has it occured to them that they are in a residence...
speech project
we have to choreograph/have movement for the words to the Henry V prologue. it has to be real movements, or a move we learned from a class or something. im eating doritos and drinking juice and jumping around my room like a crazy woman in just a sports bra. will i throw up? probably. stay tuned….

last night i stopped by chels room, and we had this off in-depth decision about religion, spirits, angels, devil, exorcisms, and other intense shit. it was really interesting. then chels played nurse to ryan…which was both odd and amusing at the same time.

i’ve been feeling sooo weird for the past few days!
its definitely not pms, i just feel so out of place.
i know that if you feel a weird feeling when running a show, it’s information about your character, but i honestly havent done any outside work on Marta in Company. i mean, we ran the 2 scenes she was in, but i havent like legit sat down and thought about her. well…mybe i...

just saw alice in wonderland...
not that good. dont pay that much to see it in 3-D. wait until someone has the DVD or you can watch it illegally on the internet. the alice sucked, some of the graphics sucked, and some of the lines sucked. i went into the theater knowing i wouldn’t like it, i accepted it and moved on. but near the end i thought, this really isnt that bad, but then the mad hatter broke out into this random...
