April is almost over....Finally!
April has been a crazy roller-coaster. It started off so awesome with Hello Dolly @ Matawan. Then it got weird. Then it just went nuts. I had papers due, fell behind, caught up, got ahead, fell behind again.....all over the place. This last week has been insane. Accidents, mishaps, general malaise.... It has apparently been a crappy month for everyone. I absolutely can not wait for April to be over.
The Underpants went pretty well. The set was freaking awesome. The pieces from Beadle really helped make it look incredible. And the window kicked some serious ass. I definitely finished building the window at about 7:15 and it was painted by 7:30. The paint was probably still drying when the show started. But none of the costumes were ruined, and that's all that matters. Since there was only one coat of paint on it and it was with a brush you could still see some of the wood grain underneath the paint. It was a neat, though unintentional, effect. You could only see if it you really looked though. I spent so long on that window. But people actually noticed it. I got a lot of compliments on it, which was nice. Cause usually, in theater tech, when you do your job right, people shouldn't notice you. But they did notice in this case, and it was cool. Mom & Dad came to see it & brought Nani. We went advertising crazy. I think I sent out like 10 - 15 messages via different outlets about the show. We had decent turnouts every night, but no sellouts. Ah well. So Big Thanks to all the people who did make it out, and even to all the people who tried but couldn't. Knowing you tried to make the effort is just as great as if you had actually managed to get to the show.
I can't believe that April is almost over (thank goodness). I can't wait. I'm seriously considering going to the May Day celebrations in Princeton. They start at dawn I believe. V exciting. It'll be a good way to start off the new month and the last day of classes.
Oh my god - the last day of classes. The LAST DAY OF CLASSES!!!!! I'm almost a Grad student! This is crazy. I don't know if I can take it. Graduating. I just f*ing graduated from Matawan, and now I'm supposed to be graduating from Rutgers?? How did this happen? It seems so impossible.
Bah humbug. I've got observations in the morning, so I must off to bed. Last week of these too. weird.
too weird. all of it.
later.

Basking in the afterglow
Another show over.
Another amazing experience.
Yet this one was so far beyond anything I've done lately.
Carolyn told me the other day that I've been "glowing" since I started HD. I think she's right. And it kicks ass.
It was a tight show. And I'm so happy I got to be a part of it.
Strike is Friday. That'll really be the end of HD. But not the end of the goodness. (Never-mind that I'm not making any sense and just go with it. I'm floating. What more do you need?)
later :-D
