Easy A

To those I've met since I changed my major to Theatre (Interpretation and Dance):

Thank you.

Thank you for everything I've learned from you all.  Whether they were good things, or bad, I learned a lot in the last year and a half.  About myself, about theatre - on stage and back stage, about CMU and so many other things.

As I look to graduation tomorrow, I know that changing my major was the best decision I ever could have made.  I have met so many wonderful people, people who have changed me forever.

To my professors, Dr. C, Keeley, Jill, Annette, Lauren, Jim, Doris.  Thank you, I have learned loads from you.  Thank you for your patience and willingness to teach me.  And for those of you whom I had this semester, thank you for allowing me to do what I needed to while my Mom was so very sick.

To the other staff and faculty that I worked with on various productions, thank you for teaching me and allowing me the opportunity to work on those shows and build my resume.  A special thanks to Ann, Doris, Joanna, Catherine and Katie for all that I learned working in the costume shop during Into the Woods.  That was the longest, horrible-est photo call.  Awful.  And another to Neil for casting me in Everyman.

I wish you all the best in your futures, and I hope that we get to work together again.

And thank you to my husband and my family and friends for all of your support through all of the years, not just the last year and a half.

This has been anything but an Easy A.

P.S. Hey Kat, let's go get our B.S.s in Make Believe and Dress Up!!

I Totally Did Not Make the Point I Meant to With My Last Post.

My last post was supposed to be about how when I am really super busy, I can do everything I need to because I know that I only have X amount of time to get 80 bajillion things done.

What I meant to say was that if I am crunched for time, like when I have three classes and a rehearsal in one day, I am way more productive on my down time than if I have a totally free day.  That was my point.  This paragraph was also an edit, because I STILL DIDN'T PUT THIS IN WHEN I ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED THIS POST.  GAH!  I need to go to bed.

Anyway.

Instead, it turned into a frazzled I'm-going-to-list-everything-I've-done-today post because I couldn't, for various reasons, put together whatever words I intended originally to give the message about that.  Probably because I was operating under the impression I was much shorter on time that I actually was.

See, I was asked to switch to a different section of a certain class so that everyone who needed to take the class could.  Which involved rearranging another class to a different day.  But I never changed it in my calendar, so I had it all mixed up.

Long story short, I missed the class I was supposed to be in today and went to a different section at the same time as the class I am supposed to go to tomorrow.

I'm an idiot.

But I got all the rest of the stuff I needed for the semester.  Yay?

P.S. Textbooks are really freaking expensive.  So is stage make up.
