Where is Spring??

Thursday, April 10th, 2008

I really don’t know what to think about this weather. It’s the middle of April and we’re still expecting snow. It’s only been over 60 degrees once so far this year. Our track team has had two out of three meets cancelled, and we’re on the verge of cancelling another this weekend. I just can’t believe the winter is still lasting this long. (more…)

“Spring Break”

Tuesday, February 26th, 2008

Well this year’s Spring Break is fairly disappointing on many levels. First and foremost is the weather. It is certainly not Spring, nor does it feel like it. In fact, Spring Break is even earlier this year than most. Secondly, I’m stuck here on campus while everyone else is off enjoying their free week. The baseball, softball, and golf teams went to Florida, meanwhile the Track and Basketball teams are here getting ready for the upcoming games and meets. Speaking of which, our indoor conference track meet is this Friday and Saturday in Bemidji….wish me luck!

I’ll crawl out from under the rock now

Tuesday, February 5th, 2008

Not to worry, I have returned.
The end of the semester (last year) was a fun swirl of busy-ness. Now I’m adjusting to the spring semester 2008.

It’s SUPER TUESDAY (have you/will you caucus?)!!!

I don’t want to make this extremely long (because I have some homework to attend to), but I’ll give a bit of a breakdown of what my semester entails.

CLASSES
Fiction Writing
Playwriting
Directing
Theatre History I
Lighting and Sound Design
Dance
Choir

(Okay, so I have a lot of classes, but I truly love them all)

OTHER STUFF
News editing for “The Sword”
Acting in “Seascape” and “Pirates of Penzance”
Vox 9 Vocal Jazz Ensemble
Paying my rent every month

Am I in over my head? Not quite, but I’m sure I’ll be flirting with that possibility throughout this semester.

I’m really starting to get sick of the snow and winter.

QUESTION:
Anyone seen any good movies lately?

A Good Start To A New Semester…

Monday, February 4th, 2008

We are now four weeks into the second semester and things are very well so far! My classes haven’t really gotten hard yet, but I can see the work load a-coming! Myself and the track team have done really well so far this indoor season. We’ve had quite a few injuries, but we have plenty of time to get healed up before our Conference meet. All in all, I’m really happy to be back here at school with all my friends, and to get one step closer to that diploma!

News, news, news–a coffee rush update

Wednesday, November 14th, 2007

Coffee is one of those strange things. It’s really not the greatest thing for my throat and voice, especially with performances coming up for “Into the Woods.” But I do have a jolt of energy this morning while I’ve been working at Alumni Relations and sorting through my e-mails, the news, and my Script Analysis homework.

Speaking of the news, Concordia is nearing the end of a two-week pilot of the USA Today’s Collegiate Readership program. (more…)

Here we go…

Thursday, November 1st, 2007

It’s the middle of the semester (well, past the semester actually). I’m sitting in the middle of an “Into the Woods” rehearsal right now. We open in two weeks! I highly encourage all to attend this unique show. We open Nov. 15 and run through the 18th of Nov. The Thurs, Fri, Sat shows are at 7:30 p.m., and the Sunday show is a 2:00 p.m. matinée.

It’s nearly been a month since I’ve written in this thing, and a lot has happened. (more…)

Let’s see. It’s been a while. I can’t keep track of everything anymore.
I’ve had on my to-do list to write a posting for the past week, and here I am. I don’t feel like writing much, but there’s a lot to update. (more…)

The Update

Tuesday, September 11th, 2007

It’s been chilly the past two days. Fall is coming, and I love it. This transition is my favorite time of year by far. Hopefully we won’t have to turn the air conditioner on anymore at the apartment. (more…)

beantown!!
