Hey ya'll! What's up? Today was a pretty chill day. My theater class was cancelled so I went with a couple of my new theater buddies to the cyber cafe to watch Glee yet again. (This was the second time) and now I've just watched it a third time with Jess. (Why do I not love Glee?)
So I'm here back in 308 Maple St. where I'm pretty much staying for the whole weekend. The beva feva dance last night wasn't as much fun as we thought it was going to be, but we made it fun anyway, especially when Single Ladies came on (I love those moves!) And tonight, we're just chillin' cause tomorrow I'm spending the day with my mom. I'll let you know how that goes. :)
I'm actually pretty excited because I miss her. As much as I don't really want to admit it, I really miss my family. It's kind of hard being over here and not with them, but I'll get over it. I have to.
So anyway, that's what's going through my mind right now. We're going contra dancing tomorrow night on this weekend full of fun so I'll write about that tomorrow!
Peace out!

I Got Felt Up
So for today's adventure, I had to go to my costume measurment -taking thing for the play. I was wicked excited because it means that things are finally starting to happen with me and the theater group here.
I went at 4:00 p.m. my scheduled time and went down into the basement of the Royall Tyler theater where the costume shop is. I was mildly nervous seeing how this was the first time I was going to meet the costume director and plus I'm not very good with body measurments. I get sort of self-conscious. But anyway, I went and we started doing the measurments.
Boy, did he get a little personal with the inseam! I was like, "Whoa, buddy!", but he was extremely professional.
All in all, I'm so happy that things are finally starting to look up for me here at UVM and in the theater department. At the end of our session, the costume director asked me if I was a first year, and I said that I was. He said, "Good. Great to meet you." And he smiled. I think it's a good sign.
ALSO...tonight's festivities are gonna be off the hook! There's a dance at Champlain tonight and Megan has invited me to party all night long! It's the beava feva dance (for those of you who don't know, the Champlain mascot is the beaver) and I'm pumped. I get to pretend I'm a Champlain student tonight. Can't wait! And it's Glee time! All good things rolled up into one!
And with that I say Peace Out!

WOW...Am I Psychic Or What?
So...as soon as I type "can't wait till tomorrow...can't wait for something to happen...can't wait for anything" as my facebook status, meanwhile sighing into my sadness over being sad (is that a double negative?) I check my UVM email. There is awaiting me an email from the stage manager for the play I'm in here at UVM. Apparently, I have rehearsal tonight. And apparently, I was supposed to come to a costume fitting at 3 this afternoon. I have class until 3:45. Damn. I was supposed to respond to the email about whether I could go or not by 10:30 a.m. It was 10:40. Damn. So I responded as fast as I could, saw the stage manager later, and got the whole thing straightened out.
The thing I learned was that maybe I shouldn't be so sad that nothing's happening or feel depressed that I'm not doing enough theater. Because, really I am. I should be happy with what I do have. It's like freshman year of high school all over again. If that's true, then I'm sure something great is coming on the horizon.
But I still can't wait until tomorrow night!
Peace out!

Happy Monday!
Hey! Sorry I wasn't able to post yesterday, my decision to get ahead on all my homework for the week was a little more than I bargained for and it kind of turned into an epic fail. BUT that's okay, I'll just have a little more work than I thought I was going to this week. Speaking of this week, last night the Feeley House gang had a meeting and this is the deciding schedule for the week (with my own little bits mixed in)
Wednesday - Dance Party! Woot! Then an epic gleegasm at 2 in the morning
Thursday - Chillax at Feeley House before going to class and then more Feeley House fun that night
Friday - I have the day off. My mom's coming to B-town to chill for awhile and then it's time to go contra dancing with Ashley and her parents.
Saturday and the rest of the weekend - Party at Feeley House!
So, that sounds like an awesome time. I pretty much can't wait. Our meeting last night was full of homework, Next to Normal, and Desperate Housewives. Of course, all of this occured after our awesome 007-Indiana Jones style-WTF journey through UVM's library system.
Let me explain. I was helping Megan (with Velvet tagging along) find some books at UVM's library for a project she has to do. We go to Howie's (the name Megan has assigned to our official library Bailey-Howe) and Megan signs in just fine and takes out the book she needs. So then we go to the medical library where another book is hiding. We find the book after being stared down by some snotty med students and bring it to the front counter. When Megan asks whether she can borrow the book or not, the man at the desk (with the biggest smile I've ever seen and the dumbest attitude) simply replies, "Absolutely...not!"
Wow. Duche.
So then, with the skill and percision of 007 himself, I whip out my UVM ID and say, "How about UVM?"
The man replied with a soft, "Yeah." That's right, bitch! We just beat the system. Needless to say, I handed the book to Megan as we were walking out the door.
We were pretty proud of ourselves.
Peace out!

Recharged
Today was a very good day. I got recharged and I'm feeling it. Now, a day wouldn't be a day without it's comical mishaps and sitcom-style mischief, but still it was awesome.
Today I decided I was gonna go swimming. So that's what I did. Yeah, I went swimming. Yeah, I do exercise. I spent an hour trying to find the men's locker room and then trying to find how you get to the pool from there while trying to dodge nasty, naked, and sweaty lacrosse players as they ran through the locker room. But swimming was fun.
Then later on I got to usher for UVM's first play of the 09-10 season. It was a lot of fun, and I got to see the play for free, which is good seeing how I have to write a paper on it. The experience of ushering (I was a ticket ripper) and watching the show helped me a lot. It has been soooo long since my last play and I was feeling sort of sad about not being completely involved yet in all of the theater here (I'm a freshman, it doesn't come easy). But now, I'm completely ready for rehearsing the little bit I have and rocking it out and joining this improv troupe and singing glee every Wednesday night and practicing for auditions for the musical and remembering why I do what I do.
Life is good.
Peace out!

Laundry Day
Today is Friday which means it's laundry day! The glorious day where all my clothes feel semi-clean and where the dorm actually smells good. (I think it's like the unofficial rule of Jeanne Mance that everyone has to do laundry on Friday.) Today was a fairly good day what with a test and all and my mom calling trying to get me to come home next weekend. My parents are great, and they mean well, but sometimes they just don't know when to leave the hell enough alone. But that's okay. I told my mom she should come over on Friday from the dreary place that is Lyndonville to a sort-of-less-dreary place here in Burlington. I'm just kidding, Lyndonville is an amazing place and I miss it a lot. I had a great time there the whole 17 years I've lived there, and I hope Velvet and Megan have a good time there this weekend. Meanwhile, my roommate and I are going to see Zombieland tonight and tomorrow I plan on working and getting ahead on all my schoolwork this week. I really wanna have some fun, but it's kind of hard. Wish me luck!
Peace out!

Fudge-Bottomed Candy Crunch Pie
From the first bite, I knew this was Heaven. It was a glorious mix of chocolate, cool whip, and more chocolate. It was cold, yet fudgy with a bite of crunchiness. It was pure, it was sinful, it was awesome. This was Velvet's wonderful creation: Fudge-Bottomed Candy Crunch Pie. YUM! I was joined in my glee by Megan and Ashley's orgasmic noises over the pie. We had a good time. Ashley was quite delighted because of her healthy (yes, healthy, there is nothing wrong with it!) obsession with chocolate. I mean, that box of Dove candies they had the second week of classes was gone in a week, so...
Today was a pretty good day. It's Thursday which is my off day, sort of. I don't have class until 1:00 and then its theater so it's cool. It was cold and rainy, but I don't really mind expecially because all that was going through my head were wild dreams and aspirations of having pie in my future.
In fact, today was pretty full of unhealthy choices. After going to Champlain farms for a Ben and Jerry's fix this morning with Megan, I decided to have Easy Mac for lunch while quickly finishing my reading for religion. Then came dinner full of pizza, bacon, and ranch dressing :) Then came pie. Wow. Freshman 40 hahaha.
Well, that's pretty much all for today. Food, food, and more food. That's my life hahaha.
Peace out!
