Aiight. So, this blog will follow a similar fashion as the last. But, don't get used to it. Week summary, random thought. Ready, go.
Last Monday, we found out that prof. directing the opera had major surgery. Utter chaos ensued. Haha. We are mostly back on track now. There was also a quiz in my opera class. I'm a nerd, but I was so excited. I LOVE a challenge. Tuesday I had a test in my stage make-up class and I feel like I did ok. I was responsible for a red carpet glam look on myself. And I looked good, but with all that schtuff on my face PLUS fake eyelashes, my eyes looked like 7 times their size. And I already have fairly sizeable eyes, so the effect was interesting. Wednesday was fun because it was the first make-up call for Mikado. It was interesting to see what was good in my designs and what still needed work. I think it's going to turn out really nicely. And by "nicely" I mean "HILARIOUSLY." Nothing worth mentioning happened Thursday, but Friday was all kinds of exciting. My best friend got married and I was her maid of honor. She looked so beautiful and she just radiated happiness. It was a great experience. And, then.... Lizzy got up at 5:30 a.m. on Saturday to drive home. I got to my cousin's house just in time to watch her kiddies. The highlight of the visit was singing Disney songs and playing the piano while her 2-year-old daughter sat on my lap. And my cousin just HAPPENED to get home right at the end of "Zero to Hero" from Hercules. Talk about impeccable timing! Haha. After an afternoon of shopping and lunch with Mom, we went to Aunt Mern's for a birthday party. And my temple recommend/mission interview with the bishop. (That was way cool. The bishop is my uncle. Haha) Sunday was my interview with the Stake Pres. and then back to Cedar. (3 hours, 15 mins. With a stop. That's how I do.)
This week was kinda nuts. It all ran together. I had a presentation in my Education Psychology class that I ROCKED. It was on nonverbal communication. I showed a clip from Act III of Carmen from the Met. I had a paper due about beauty, specifically how it defines art. (Rocked that as well.) Voice lessons and practicing didn't go to bad either. I just need to work on not pushing the high notes in both of my songs. And yesterday was the publicity call for Mikado. Jana and I did make-up for the Mikado and Katisha and they both looked AWESOME. I am so excited for the real thing and to see everyone all done up.
Random thought of the week: As I get closer to entering the mission field, I can't help but thinking about my friends and family it what it's going to mean saying goodbye for a whole 18 mos., specifically about what it means with my SUU friends. I have loved and appreciated all the time I've been able to spend with them. When I first came to college, I had had a bad experience with a close friend that made me wary of making new friends. I thought that they'd end up hurting me or leaving me. But, through lots of patience (on everyone's part) I have learned that good friendship is stretchy... for lack of a better word. The Lord knows who you need and when you need them. :) That is also something I've learned. So, the moral of the story? If you need, me call me. No matter where you are. No matter how far, don't worry, Baby. Just call my name, I'll be there in a hurry. You don't have to worry.
...Or something like that.
