*Sigh*...I can't believe how fast this semester has gone!! I'm really trying not to go into freakout mode here, but I don't know how long I'll be able to hold it off. Tomorrow is the last day of classes, and then I have exams through Thursday, and then that's it. I'm halfway finished with college, which is a darn scary thought in and of itself. The main issue, though, is leaving B-W for three months. This is the first time I haven't been counting down the days till I get back home. These past ten weeks or so have been the best ever, and I don't want to leave everyone!!
Don't get me wrong, there are very good things about summer, mainly having "the family" back together again. There's LeakyCon and Montreat and Half Blood Prince, and it will be great to church every Sunday for a while. Plus I never have to sit through another waste-of-my-time Nutrition for Athletes class ever again.
It's just all crashing down on me at once, though. I can't believe Jennette and Snicholas are graduating, although at least Snick will be around here next year. I'm really, really not so good at this "change" thing...and that's one thing that never changes, lol.
Anywho, As You Like It was incredible!! I had so much fun. :) Thank God for Becky needling me and needling me to do crew. And our production of The Two Gentlemen of Verona is tomorrow afternoon, and we're doing at least some scenes from it again on Saturday at Ovation...it's going to be very interesting, to say the least. Tonight is The Price Is Right, which is a major highlight of every year, of course...hopefully I'll be able to see a lot of cool people there, since the theater picnic got cancelled due to the darn rain and for some reason we can't have a picnic inside...?? Whatever.
*Not freaking out, not freaking out, not freaking out!!* AHHHHHHHHH!!!

The calm before the storm, so to speak
It's lucky I've got a free moment. Becky laughed at the lack of blank space on my calendar for this week. I find her laughing rather amusing, since she's the one who was bugging me to work on the show in the first place!! I'm light board op for As You Like It, which opens this Wednesday night. We had tech all day yesterday, and fortunately we got enough done that I'm not sitting over in the theater right now. I don't have to be there till 6 tonight for first dress. It's lots of fun, though, and Becky and Snicholas are great SMs who are totally on my side. ;)
Other than AYLI, I've just been crazy busy with school work and such. I've hardly gotten to watch any baseball, although I'm watching the Braves and Pirates right now on MLB.TV. (It's so nice of them to let me watch this game, since I'm paying to watch whatever games I want...geez!!) The Braves are up 3-0 in the third, which is a good sign, since we've lost several in a row. But Chipper's back in the lineup, so that should give us a boost. And MAJOR congratulations are in order to the Indians, who have made spectacular contributions to the Yankees' epic fail season so far!! They've won the first two games in the new Yankee stadium, including a spectacular 22-4 steam-rolling yesterday. Keep it up, everyone!! WOOT!!
Hopefully everyone has seen the incredible new trailer for Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. (If not, you can see it here: http://video.the-leaky-cauldron.org/video/1155) We got word this week that WB has change the release date AGAIN, from July 17 to July 15...I suppose that's better than delaying it again, but it still annoys me. I know Warner Brothers is a business, but I still somehow expect them to have a little bit of respect for the fans that bring in sooooooo much money for them. I'm sure we'll get it worked out somehow, but I'm just worried that people will have a lot more trouble going to a midnight showing on a Wednesday than on a Friday. And this will change the dynamic of the 3 A.M. LeakyMug broadcast from Azkatraz, but I know it will still be awesome.
Well, to the one person who's probably reading this, have a good week (or two, or whatever...no idea when I'll be on here again.) DFTBA!! ("Don't Forget To Be Awesome," for those who aren't up on their Nerdfighter lingo.)

End of a loooooong week
Well, this has been just about the longest week ever. Phish (aka my sister) was here on Monday, just to hang out and go to classes with me, and we had a blast!! She was such a trouper, crutches and air cast and all. We finally got our Acting Shakespeare scene re-blocked on Monday too, even though we were missing our trusty Crab. :( But the rest of week was pretty insane, with a diet analysis and a character analysis and an important email to my high school board of education and superintendent to write.
But now I can relax, at least for a while...Pat was my hero and cut the music for Shakespeare (the Outlaws in The Two Gentlemen of Verona are rocking out to "Dancing Queen"), and now he and Jamie and I are watching Accepted, the best college movie ever. Then we have Becky's birthday party tonight, Red Beard and other sweet bands at the SAC tomorrow, and Katy's show, Free Will and Wanton Lust, on Sunday. So it's going to be a pretty darn crazy weekend, but hopefully I'll get a ton of work done too.
