Why do I not update more?
Because everyone has their stinkin myspace...and facebook...everyone including me. Well, minus the myspace. But I'll still update my xanga bc I'm really cool and this is my way of expressing myself- arts school phrase.
Lots of stuff is going down lately.... wow, including my grammar.... But I didn't really mean "going down" as in progressing negatively until I started talking about my grammar. Lots of cool stuff is going down.
For instance- West Side Story. For those of you who don't know, NCSA is producing west side story next year- with THE ORIGINAL DIRECTOR of THE ORIGINAL BROADWAY SHOW, who just happens to be the dean of the drama school here at ncsa. Pretty awesome, huh? They showed the Natalie Wood movie down at the film village, it was very cool to see it on the big screen. We danced all around for about an hour afterwards... I mean, where else can you dance like a Jet across campus?
It was fun. Unfortunately my marvelously beautiful and talented roommate didn't get onto the list for the workshop/talent pool... neither did John the piano player.... Sad, eh? I couldn't believe it.
Also- human chess match was very entertaining. Two of my good friends played opposing queens for the red and black teams- Two of my very male friends. It was a hilarious production and made quite a bit of money for hurricane relief, so I hear.
We also saw the Piano last night... the movie, that is... weird but a well-made movie. Lots of "gratuitous nudity" in Drew's words. And if Brian Sutow ever happens to read this- it was DEFINITELY more feminist than sexist. I mean, a female wrote and directed it for pete's! However, like I said, not sure I would do that for my cello.... even though I love you very much, paolo.
Zach and I broke up... it just needed to be done, I just need some space. I promise I'm still a nice person. Don't think I'm a dog. Cause I'm not. I just need some space and hey, 21 hours away from everyone that I know is a lot of space and I'm enjoying it.
I'm going on an opera date on tuesday! I'm dressing up and so is my date, it's going to be so much fun. This is the same kid who plans to blast the Wagner trilogy across campus from his window all day on Wagner's b-day. it's going to be so much fun.
Funny story- the coffee shop downstairs doesn't know how to make mochas. What?
in other news, I learned how to waltz. a ballet kid showed me and we waltzed around the what... which is our coffee shop downstairs... still working on the viennese.
The Cookout is the new Sonic, btw- except it's open till 3 so we usually go around 1 or 2. I also watched half of the shining (until falling asleep) and it's still my favorite horror movie. I'm also on the third book of King's dark tower series and LOVING it.
Well, since I already have a thousand words, here's some more thousands' worth of pictures. (A picture is worth a thousand words, after all.)
football in B2!
Amanda in her uber-texan mode.
Improv on the quad which is a huge grassy hill. Studio 6 in the building in the background... This one tree is the lone tree on the whole hill, a great gathering spot. I wish I was as creative as these guys... I had nothing to contribute except backup humming. Sad.
Mark.... no words describe him. This is a pre-Nerf war period piece of art.
This is pre- NCSA- PeiWei with Steven Curtis Chapman! (he's not in the picture.) Aren't we a beautiful bunch?
Ahh. I love me some mel.
My film name... Ja-vwee. Don't ask, I guess... cause I don't know. but I like the picture. Courtesy of Mark
Chelsey, (hallmate filmmaker), Kristen, (awesome Texan Flautist), Alex, (hallmate filmmaker), John (pianist) after our Corpse Bride/chick-fil-a adventure.
View from my dorm... I guess my backyard
An awkward picture- not just because I didn't rotate it correctly
The Elephants.... on a rainy day. kind of meeting place/ work of art. Designed by a student who evidently was suicidal and made it to spell "Help" from the air- which you can kind see if you're here. Then she hung herself. Cool story, eh? this is also the view from my dorm room which is right behind the photographer (and 3 floors up.)
Our room.. kind of
My Tribute to art and sports... and melissa... I told you I'd never throw that thing away!
Alex and his cap
Amanda- looking sexy as usual
Paul and amanda.... hmm.
Another shot of our room- kind of
Our Psychedelic/cheap/filthy rugs that match both of our bedspreads. great find, eh?
Rugs- a weak ending, I know. More to come, more to come... |
