Day 7

Jack Baurer is pretty awesome. In the TV show 24, he successfully saved the world 6 times, and now he's doing it for the 7th this season. I just finished watching Season 5 on DVD on Monday- he manages to stop the Nerve gas from being released into the LA air and prevents hundreds of thousands of deaths. He also manages to kill/ take into custody all the bad guys, and uncovers the scandal of President Logan, all in 24 hours, before being kidnapped with 5 minutes to go in the season! Thats what you get from coming out of hiding after faking your death.

Although I love this show and how it fairly accurately portrays the time scale (people just don't fly half way accross the world in 2 seconds), it is finally getting a bit repetitive on the 7th season. Oh well. I'll keep watching Jack Baurer save the world until the show is gone.

Day 6

Bamboo. It is gorgeous in the wild, but a pain in the butt when you have to carry it across campus. We are using bamboo for our advanced dance in Rhythm and Taps, as a part of a jungle-like beat song. Its a great prop to have, and its going to turn out well I think, but we have to store the bamboo some place. So... for the next 10 weeks we will be storing it in my car!

P.S. We bought the bamboo legally, we did not steal/cut it down from the local bamboo "forests."

Day 5

I went and saw the Secret Garden last night. Sinfronicron put it on in 2 1/2 weeks. It was amazingly well done- the songs were beautiful, the sets were gorgeous. I am amazed by the talent that we have on this campus.

That being said, when thought about, The Secret Garden is full of ghosts/spirits that haunt the house throughout the musical. The music is eerily beautiful, and the acting was phenomenal. Enough said.

Day 4


So I had a good reason for not writing yesterday in a timely fashion. I went to the Black and White dance party at TDX. I went out with all my sisters, and we had a fabulous time dancing until the wee hours of the night :). I love my sisters like woah- I don't know what I'd do without you!

Day 3

I thawed out some monster cookies that my mom sent me for finals in December that I had put in the freezer. They tasted fresh and new, and were quite delicious. The key to success is this: take fresh cookies, put in ziploc bags without air, place bags in freezer within 1st day of receiving/making cookies. When you're ready to eat, let them thaw for a few hours and enjoy! Yay my momma's cookies!
