A Christmas Carol: The Musical!

It has been a while since I last updated this thing. To begin, I want to tell you about a play that I was in. I joined a drama group called "Eternal Reconcile". This Christmas we did A Christmas Carol Musical. A few of the members slightly modified the play and added a few songs. It was a bunch of fun!

Becoming a bum is dirty work!

It was fun becuase a few of my friends showed up for he performance!

The opening number, Sleigh Ride, the only kind of "dancing" on campus.

Opening scene and "bum" scene.

We sang, You're a Mean One, Mr. Scrooge (instead of Mr. Grinch).

And yes, I'm not in a costume here because we had to share.

Coming Up for Air

Oh! That accursed feeling that you are forever swimming underwater and can barely reach the surface!!! If you were to ask a Southern student how they are feeling right now, that might be the common answer. I am desperately trying to get above everything that I need to do this week:

1. Finals begin on Sunday. The one that is threatening to kill me is Tuesday.

2. I'm in a Christmas musical version of the Christmas Carol. It's a lot of fun but... it's this coming Saturday night and we're not selling as many tickets as needed and I really don't feel like we're prepared to preform. (DISCLAIMER: for anyone reading this who has bought or is thinking of buying a ticket, PLEASE COME! The one scene I'm in is amazing and you won't want to miss it! Ask anyone! They'll tell you that the "bum" scene is the best!) So we have a 2 hour practice every night this week.

3. Design class... Ugg.. This is the hardest one to create: Texture.

4. I have some back work to complete because I got sick last week...

5. And I need to get back to work so, I'll leave you with a picture that I took earlier tonight, before the rain started.

This is the main building, girl's parking lot and big Christmas tree that they put up. What a wonderful time of year!!! Ok, I'm going back under water now...
