It's been a while, as usual. I get so consumed with life I forget to update.
I've heard back from all of the schools I applied to. I was accepted to UNC-Chapel Hill, UNC-G, and Catawba College. I was waitlisted for Elon University.
As of now, I've settled on going to Catawba. I've got to look at the financial package information for UNC-G before a final decision, but I really enjoyed the campus of Catawba and Salisbury itself. College, here I come!
The week before last was Spring Break. I went to Tampa, Florida, with my roomate and two other girls at my school. We went to the beach, hung out by the bay, and made a trip to Ybor. Lots of fun in the sun!
This last Friday we did our performance of "Mary's Wedding." We had been given the script back in fall, worked on lines, then came back from Chicago in February and got to work on it. It was a successful show, the ending causing sniffles in the audience. haha... Plus, there is a part where I kiss my partner, Ray, and my sister was at the show and giggled. It was adorable. My mom, sister, and grandparents came. It was nice to see them all.
This last week was kind of hard. Coming back from a relaxing spring break and being forced back into the routine of school work was difficult. Also, I had to school rejections while also finding out that my dad was losing his job. My mother has also been laid off. Crazy stuff when the economy falls apart...
Well, we are now starting on doing a performance of Shel Silverstein's "The Giving Tree." It's a movement based show in honor of the volunteers of the Special Children's School (a school for children with special needs) and we will use children from the school in the show. That goes up April 30th at 8 pm, Thursday night. Free Admission.
Our next show after that, which I am most excited about, is MACBETH! I am stage manager and totally stoked. It isn't going to be a typical version of Macbeth... Our intro is to a Rage Against the Machine song. Need I say more?
The performance weekend is May 15 and 16.
I graduate May 30th. Hooray!
That's all for now. <3
