I've pretty much decided, based on the quote that Mel has wrote on our white board, that I need to watch House. (For those of you who are curious, the quote is: "I think your argument is specious." "I think your tie is ugly.")
But that's not the heart of the matter here. No sir. Today was my first day of classes. I was worried about the workload this semester, but I think it's going to be manageable, even with Gypsy eating all of my time. The good news is that I only have two major projects: one is for The History of Medieval Europe, a ten page paper and a fifteen minute Power Point (AAAAAH) presentation, wherein my topic is practically chosen for me. He wants us to do the project on a saint in a stained glass window of a church here in Cedar Rapids. Why? I'm not really sure. But I don't have to make a huge decision, so that's good. The second is we're designing all aspects of a production in Design for the Stage: lights, scenery, and costume. This is going to be slightly scary because I'm the worst drawer ever (I draw like a mentally-challenged four-year-old, seriously).
There are, of course, two scenes for Directing, one from either Proof or Three Days of Rain, the other is from a Chekhov play. The exciting news on this front is that due to the amount of people in Directing I (eleven) and Acting II (three), the classes are not going to collaborate and instead we each get to act in one scene, so that directors have to find only one actor. Western Civ II is awesome because it's Dr. Nordmann again, and I love that man.
I should be starting Here I Stand, but am I? No sir. Hello, Gilmore Girls.
Melissa got me a day calendar for Christmas that is Murphy's Law and things like that. We've determined it's going to dispense completely priceless advice for the next four months. i.e.: Wilson's Law of Politics: If you want to make enemies, try to change something.
