lazy Sunday
FINALLY sleeping in, after an action-packed weekend. A LOT has happened this week:
The beach yesterday was gorgeous. Joshua, Davida, Katie, & myself went, along with Ryan & his girl, Chelsea. It was fun having a new dynamic on the beach. We missed Wayne though!
Yellow flags greeted us upon arrival again, which meant that the rip current was pretty strong. I thought it was strong the last time we were there, but it seemed even stronger this time!
I bought this awesome beach umbrella with a stand that digs a hole into the sand & it turned out to be a pretty sweet investment. Only $30.00 for 7.5 feet of shade, haha.
I just LOVE spending time with friends. These people are my family here, so it's great to bond in this way, in such a stunning place.
Oedipus went really well. I really enjoyed doing this show. The process from beginning to end was fun & not a chore to be a part of. Yanci is an inspiration & I'm very thankful I got to work with him as a director. Hopefully that won't be the last show with him before I graduate!
Last week of ORI is this week. And then I'm on to Summer B & Theatre Appreciation. Sigh. I gotta get my stuff together & organize this class!
- Teched, Opened, & Closed Oedipus
- Got into the Summer Dance Intensive!!! yay
- Beach yesterday. I just want to live on the beach.
- Karaoke last night.

OEDIPUS, KING!
In tech rehearsal for Oedipus this week. I actually really like this show. I'm proud of the work I've done & I'm just stoked I get my own lines, haha. I know, it doesn't matter how many lines an actor has, but it just rocks when I do get to speak all by myself!
Cross your fingers for me!:
I am trying to get into the Dance Intensive that's happening Summer B. I'm hoping it'll count towards my Summer Rep credits. I just need one more thing to satisfy it & dancing would be a dream come true! I already emailed the lead professor, so hopefully she says yes!

an early Saturday morning
waking up early
too excited to sleep now
might nap later on
My friend & colleague, Katie, turned me onto haikus. Now I'm obsessed & make them up all the time. My facebook statuses are littered with haikus! It's just a fun way to express myself, when conventional sentences don't adequately communicate my state of mind.
I'm doing well right now. Oedipus opens on Wednesday, but we haven't been in rehearsal lately due to technical rehearsals & the opening of Romeo & Juliet. We had an impromptu rehearsal today & one today, so hopefully we'll get our act together by Monday, our first tech.
I'm super pumped for this production! We tell a familiar story in a refreshing way. I just hope my vocal work shines through. Yanci, my words-can't-describe-how-amazing-he-is voice professor, is the director of this production & he's pushed me to work harder for my voice.
In other news... Still teaching ORI. That class is finished June 16th. And then I'm slated to teach Theatre Appreciation, which I'm super nervous for... SIGH. It's a lecture class & survey course. So, it's intimidating to take on so much material. But I'll pull it off somehow.
ORI is going well. I'm learning a lot about how I want to structure the class for the future. I'm stoked because their Final is going to Eurydice by Sarah Ruhl, which I think will be fun for them. I hope so anyway!
