Something Awesome?!

I have about ten minutes before work is over so I figure I'll do a quick update because I have been sucking - as usual - at keeping up with this blog. I am terrible at keeping blogs. Especially because I vowed that this one would be more devoted to art than to my daily life, I feel like there isn't much for me to say at this point in my life. I'm just trying to get through my last semester of college and figure out what I am going to do with myself next year. This weekend I applied to 3 more theatre internships. Hopefully I get one of them. I think that would be the best thing for me to do next year. Not a TON of money but something steady and concrete - which will be nice.

In other news, the show went well! Crazy actresses aside, everything was more or less a success! So that's good! They are probably holding a talkback right now and will move on to strike the show - which I don't have to be at as a designer! That's SO AWESOME. Strike always sucks. You're tired after doing a show and you have to put everything away - boo.

In other other news, I vowed I wouldn't mention anything until I found out more about it but seeing as there are two of you who read this and I am really excited about it, I figure here is a safe place to talk about it. Also, I hear that word has leaked out anyway because I was just approached my one of my most gossipy friends about it yesterday - so really it's only a matter of time before people start finding out. I was approached by the chair of the theatre department on Wednesday night at the show who told me that he was going to try to nominate me for... VALEDICTORIAN! WHAT?! Nothing is set in stone yet so I shouldn't be spreading anything around but I'm pretty excited. I want to know more about it. I know there is a nomination process in which there are interviews and essays and such but I don't know if the chair is trying to get me nominated to BE a nominee or if hes actually nominating me officially. Does that make sense? Like - if I've made it to the semifinals or the finals. Either way, I will hopefully be receiving more info soon. He is going to try talking to some of my other professors about it and get them to send in recommendation letters and such. AHH. I'll definitely let you know what happens.
