I didn't even have to take my shirt off!

I figured for those of you who follow my blog, that title would catch your attention.

Yesterday was Mardi Gras in New Orleans and I got a string of beads. I had completely forgot about the big holiday, not working in a bar or living with Ian has thrown me completely off! It has been a rough week between rehearsal and midterms fast approaching but I am hanging in there for the next 11 days! I am spending my Spring Break in Chicago with my friend doing all of the touristy things we missed last time we went. For the most part...I am just excited about drinking good beer, Blue Man Group, and The Bean.

Obviously, the most exciting part of my trip to Chicago will be Curling Nationals!

I am thinking that my team should enter like these guys with the bagpipes playing softly in the background.

March 13-15th, we will be in Chicago, IL for the College Nationals tournament.

On another note, I am staying busy with the opera, School for Fathers, and I just joined the props crew for Into the Woods. On top of that, I have curling practice! I've been kinda boring, sooner or later something will happen and I will have a better story to tell you.

Last night

Since Tiff is out of town and the next few weekends are going to be insane, I was looking forward to just relaxing and watching Cinderella over and over last night. Tiff and I said heartfelt good byes and around 5:45pm and I was at work by 6pm. I was back in my dorm around 10pm with a Mike's Hard Lemonade, Cinderella, and a candle burning for ambiance. I know this totally sounds lame but I did my fair share of partying last year and I have begun to just enjoy quiet time. I went to bed around 2am with Sex and The City on the tube and RIIIIIIINNNNNGGGG!!! RIIIIIINNNNNGGGG!!! My phone rang around 4am, it was Cameron, an old friend of mine from High School. Without going too far into why he didn't have his keys, he was locked out of his frat house and couldn't get a hold of anyone to get back in. He stumbled over to my dorm, by this time, it is 5am and we are both starving...the only place open at 5am...is the Circle K gas station 5 blocks away...He needed cigarettes and I needed a pop tart. Long story short...I have learned to not answer my phone at 4am...

Just plain exciting.

This past weekend was extremely exciting. Curling Regionals began on Friday at 5pm; we played another BGSU team and won. My teammates and I agreed that as long as we won a single game, we achieved our goal. Four out of the five games, my team played three on four. We finished the tournament with a record of 3-2. I would just like to send a quick thank you to all the volunteers especially Molly and PJ who put in a ridiculous amount of work to make this weekend work.
On another note, as I believe I have told you all before, I am double majoring in English and Theatre Tech focusing in Scenic Design. I plan on living where the job takes me and hopefully not in a box but ultimately it really doesn't matter. I picked up a class, THFM 046, which I have to take 4 times as a Theatre major. The entire class just consists of working 30 hours in the shop throughout the semester. I also got a job working a few hours a week in the College of Music and Arts scene shop...and in addition to all this, I was just told that I am the Assistant Stage Manager for the opera School For Fathers. Whew!
I am just keeping busy, for this Summer, the plan is to get a job somewhere in the continental United States as a camp counselor but who knows what the rest of this semester will bring.
