Probably the main reason I've stopped blogging (as well as why I'm behind on YouTube) is the fact that I was asked to be the Assistant Stage Manager of my school's production of Thoroughly Modern Millie. I basically run around doing whatever the director and stage manager tell me to do and watch over the other (unnecessary) assistants. I have to go to every single rehearsal, every day, for three hours after school, so I've basically sold my soul (and all of my time) to high school theatre. Yay.
But honestly, I enjoy it. I'm friends with almost everyone in the cast, so I'm expected to hang out with my friends every day. Pretty sweet deal. I like the fact that I get to be a part of the show without having to have the talent to audition of all that jazz.
Outside of that, not much has happened. Winter Formal went well. I didn't win court, but I had tons of fun and my date was super awesome. (He's in the play too, so seeing him every day is an added perk.)
OH, I did go on Junior Retreat last week. It was my first overnight retreat, held at this really great place in Robert, Louisiana, the middle of nowhere. I grew really close to a bunch of people in my class, and even got a little closer to God. The coffee was also superb and free so, yeah. :)
This is once weekly, right? That's totally reasonable. I can do that. I think.
Currently reading As You Like It by Shakespeare for English and The Help by Kathryn Stockett for History. No more reading for fun for a while :(
Currently listening to "Sonic Doesn't Need a Story" by Alex Day
I just got back from a weekend retreat! Glad to hear school/play work-meeting friends/ Formal is/went WELL!
