that pretty much sums up crewing this play. the director blurted it out after bursting into the dressing room before the show. she meant that it smelled like "emoting". im pretty sure it just smells like sweat but too each his/her own.
i missed the hold steady tonight becaus eof this damn show. im over this shit.

chill out tent
so my new found Carpe Diem attitude took a kick to the groin today when while trying to by some cereal and lemonade at the university food court ally ran up to me and asked why wasnt i in THEA 220. "well" i replied "because i was in another class at the same time." " but you need thea 220 to qualify for the theatre bfa."
que panic and crying
turns out the class my advisor told me to take in that time slot was not as important as the class ally was referring to.
why is this so ridiculous? because the class i need to be in. the class my advisor TOLD ME NOT TO TAKE is taught by my advisor. he's retiring at the end of this year so im assuming he's just doing this to fuck with me.
this the song that got me through today almost in one piece. god, i wish i was at some music fest laughing at hipsters right now

thats a wrap
first day done.
woke up starving and craving oatmeal. which is weird but moving on...
while in the hall waiting for my second class of the day on of the token musical theatre gay boy stormed out of the previous class crying. ITS THE FIRST DAY! anyway, it turns out he had an argument in class with his identical looking(seriously i can barely tell them apart) roommate about sleeping with the tv on. a serious enough argument about wasting electricity at night it brought on a full diva fit by 10am.
the rest of the day consisted of look at syllabus-panic about cost of text book. just copy and paste that about 4 times.
when i got to opera rehearsal i had to ask myself "who are these people?" answer: music majors-the only people more socially awkward than theatre majors. but i will admit they have something on me. i feel like a total fraud being in an opera and not being able to read music. im bitter my parents never put me in piano lessons but for a lot of my life that just wasn't viable option financially. i can match pitches just fine but when i look at the music score its like reading latin, which is unfortunate because some of the lyrics are in latin.
we'll see how this goes.

a plea for retail
i've been spending my break (glorious,glorious xmas break) working at a large chain bookstore and cafe in an effort to be able to afford to eat. retail is always an adventure so before my break ends i'd like to reflect a little on things everyone should consider before going shopping.
coupons- i cannot magically make you coupon work if it is expired, does not apply to what you are buying, or the item your buying is already reduced. insisting i "try it anyway" will only lead to disappointment. also, no i cannot give you someone elses coupon that already been used. nor, can i magically look up your coupon in the register computer. print that shit out or suck it up and pay full price.
rudeness- being rude to me because you not happy about your miserable life doesn't make anything better. next time your rude to some low level employee take a sec and imagine what might be going on in their life. chances are their day has been just as bad as yours, probably worse consider you haven't been standing behind a register for 8 hours.
asking to speak to a manager- if after i've pleaded with you and done my best to convince you there is nothing further i can do to reduce your price you'd like to "speak to a manager" i'm telling you now it wont make any difference. they are not going to give you free money just for showing up. all your going to do is make a bunch of other shoppers angry for holding up the line. hope they dont decided to run over you in the parking lot.
that's enough for now.
next semester- Opera!!! Burlesque!!! stay tune.
