WELL, this week has certainly been a little...stressful.
Lots of things have piled up, as usual: Communications homework needed to be done and forums to write on, "Is Negativism Bad for the American Political Process?" (Which, in all terms, isn't necessarily true). Needed to read Death of a Salesman (interesting play, makes me think too much about my own life, though). But my biggest concern has been completing my research project for USEM. I finally turned in my rough draft, but it is literally a diamond in the rough. It needs the polishing badly.
Other than that, I appreciate the time I have spent with friends, am much in love with Mom for that wonderful package of cross-stitching and hot chocolate books. Thank you! And I've also managed to FINALLY draw in my sketchbook again. It's been weeks. I never even realized it had been that long since I have sat down and drawn a picture. Very depressing.
Well I'm typing this as I'm working in my 2 out of 8 shows for Dick Whittington this weekend. I'm not too happy about waking up to be at the theatre building at 8 am when I've been exhausted with 4+ hours of sleep this week + a mighty cold. Oh well, such is life, and it could be worse.
Time for a quick change, I hope you all are doing well and I will talk to y'all next Friday!

Skipping Days
Well, ladies and gents, this has certainly been a busy week. Not to mention how many times I've mistaken the days of the week (like for the longest time, I thought Tuesday was Saturday for about three days).
For starters, I'm glad I have gained some experience working for wardrobe crew in Dick Whittington and his Amazing Cat. I've gotten a glimpse of what the jobs are like, and I can safely say I will probably never work for wardrobe crew again. Except when someone I know is the supervisor. That's my only exception.
Classes are going well, I managed to successfully register for classes early (15 CREDITS, I'VE LEARNED) and I'm proud of what I've chosen. And homework has just...well, has become homework. There is nothing special about it.
Other than seeing some plays (Anna in the Tropics at SOU and Kickin' The Clouds Away at the cabaret), I haven't really been up to much. All I can say, despite the chaos of working a lot and homework, this has been one of my more favorite weeks this year.
Sorry if this post is late, but I just got done with wardrobe crew and just remembered that it was Friday. I still thought it was Saturday. Darn.
ALSO, just to point things out, I've also discovered that yoga has contributed nothing to my life. I'm a doer, not a meditator. Sorry, Mom!
Anyway, I hope you all are doing well and I'll see you guys next Friday!

Week 4
Yes, the creative title era has come to an end. For now.
I've officially deemed Winter Term to be the most stressful term ever. No, I'm not going to wait until Spring Term to change my mind, I've all ready made it up.
Ah...well, there's considerably *less* things to stress about now. I'm through with Midterms, so the only things I have left to work on are final projects, basically. I've also managed to take the time to do something else OTHER than school work. This week has basically proven to me how important that is.
On another note, I have been dismissed from my stitching crew to go work for the wardrobe crew for 'Dick Whittington and his Amazing Cat' because of the lack of people helping out in that crew. Though I wish I could do both crews (seriously, stitching is a relaxing drug), I'm glad to help out with this production in any way I can. It's a really cute children's show!
Also, it snowed here last night. It both was hypnotizing to watch and made me home sick at the same time. Again. Still counting off the days for Spring Break...
Well, I will be heading out, now. But I'd just like to say how much I love you all (or everyone who keeps track of this blog, anyway) and I miss every single one of you.
Until next Friday~

What...a....uh....part 3!
3 weeks. 3 ridiculous weeks of continuous things/stress to think about. WHAT?
Ah, well, this week's been a little bit of a hysterical one. ACTUALLY, let's break down the last three weeks:
Week one: Emotional Hangover week
Week two: Social construction week
Week three: Ultimate study on 4 hours per day of sleep week
...YAY!
Well, basically, I've been juggling my communication homework along with my USEM midterm (which had to be done in a week) along with gathering more information on my research paper and still attending all my other classes and trying to remember what to do where.
This week has included many late nights at the library upon very little sleep.
In fact, this week's been so hectic, I couldn't go to work in the morning because I was at the library studying (which I still feel bad about, but hopefully I'll be able to catch up next week)
And even after all this, I have another midterm to study for Communications, prepare for a presentation for Communications, start thinking about my Communications final project AND I still have to touch up on my research paper.
Ah, such is college life.
I've decided to take 14 credits next term. Congratulations. You've all warned me about this and now I'm knowing the consequences of over-exerting myself. Thank you for warning me ahead of time, I appreciate the concerns.
No, this isn't sarcasm, I still love you all.
Other than that, sewing, family and friends continue to be a favorite part of my life, I love the plays that I'm reading for Script Analysis and the Oregon Shakespeare Festival has invited the SOU Theatre Dept. for a free showing of "Death and the King's Horsemen" this Saturday. HUZZAH!
All right, I'm heading back to work, so you all take care for now!
