11/5: Moments of Truth

I remembered this time to post on a Friday, ha ha!

Ah, well we're moving right into the true Autumnal months as the leaves fall into the gorgeous color palette. Definitely love this weather, but cannot wait for Winter to come. Fireplaces, snowing, CHRISTMAS...Ah, a magical time.

Anyway, things are certainly speeding up again. The show I'm working on opens up next week, which means for the next few days is definitely last-minute adjustments and fixing the kinks and knots of the production.
Am I excited? Of course I am.
Did I really do anything to support this show? ...not really.

Working with two assistants must be nice for the Designer, but for someone who has never helped run a show such as this, I had no idea what to do or expect, or even when it was appropriate to speak up. Even with what ideas I did had, the other assistant thought of them first before I got the chance to say something.
So, essentially, I was really a third wheel in this production. I suppose something that should have been expected, but it's something I also have to learn from.
Still, had been feeling useless as a theatre student for a majority of this production. Oh well.

Academics seem to be doing well, I'm well caught up for the time being and have time to sleep in every once in a while (WHAAAT? You may question me later about how pleasurable this was).

OH. And my housing situation, yes.

Managed to find another roommate just in time, but the deal is that I will be sharing the master bedroom with another friend of mine (Rebecca Denley, I'm sure many of you may know, but for those who don't: High school/colleague of mine) so that we can all save some money. It would be nice to pay less than what I'm paying now, but we'll see.
The important thing, though, is that I will not be homeless. Yay!
On the other hand, this does mean I need a job soon. Something different. Probably retailing since the holiday season is coming around the corner.

So that is how my life has been so far. I hope everyone is having a good week and hopefully a better week to come! I will let you know how opening night goes and there may even be some pictures involved, ooh la la! Later~
