Everyone Cut Footloose!

It's over! I must say that this show has been hard, but I'm really going to miss it. Even though there were some rough spots I really bonded with alot of these people who were in it. I almost cried the last performance...and I'm not emotional at all. I think I've watched the DVD four or five times and it's only been two days. I don't know why this show has left me wanting more...there hasn't ever been a show where I felt this way before. It was an awesome experiance being the costumer and I'm looking forward to the next time...Treasure Island here I come!

Footloose Flash Mob

So I'm the costume design intern for ACT! For Youth's production of Footloose...I've already written about this. But during this production someone decided to try and do a flash mob. Here's a video of me getting ready for the flash mob (I had to learn the dance in 2 hours) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZNT6BAgwEoo&feature=endscreen&NR=1 and the actual flash mob.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2b4kK2EI7E So it was a ton of fun and I would love to do it again!!! (This was the most I have ever danced in my life and I think I should probably stick to costuming.)

I Know I Can!!!

Ok, so I promised pictures, but unfortunaetly my dad's phone is not wanting to cooperate so no pictures...yes I'm a little ticked, but that's life. I'm now home from Asheville and have already started Latin Classes again. Tomorrow I work and Wednesday I have Envirothon and Bible Studay and AFY. Then on Thursday I work and Friday I also work and there's a small chance of AFY...although I think that will be on Saturday. Then my week starts all over again.

I have some great news though!!! I'm the Costume Design Intern for ACT! For Youth's production of Footloose!!!! I'm super excited, but really nervous because even though I'm an "intern" I'm sort of in command. When thinking about it I feel like I have to grab for a trash can, but inside I know I can do it! I think I can....I think I can.....I know I can.....I know I can!!!!

We've Arrived!

Yay! We're here, my family and I, we've arrived in Western NC! I'm already enjoying my Thanksgiving break. Of course all my family is here...all the crazy ones at least. I'll hopefully post some pictures later!

Next Couple Days

Well, in the next couple days "Cinderella" will be over and I will be headed with my family to Asheville, NC. I can't wait! This will be a well earned vacation. I will try and take a lot of pictures. Sometimes my family will go up to the Blue Ridge and see the sights or something like that. I can't wait!!!

Spanish!

Well, I'm starting to learn to speak Spanish... so far I know a few questions/answers and I'm working on the alphabet. So far I know English (of course... although it's more of Southern Slang) and Latin. Can't wait untill I can really learn to speak it!
