I'm a 20 year-old Theatre major at Oneonta State. These are my crazy stories :-)

The Verdict

I met with my adviser yesterday afternoon and we've decided that I'll be graduating next December. I still have to complete 39 credit hours before I am eligible to graduate (we need 122 credits). We also talked a lot about possible internships for this summer, which I might be able to get credit for. I have a lot of options for that still so I'll talk more about that some other time. He encouraged me to go out and get some experience over the next few years and go to grad school when I'm ready. He told me that I should definitely apply to the stage management masters program at Yale. He said I have the ambition, I'll have no problem getting the experience they'll want me to have before they accept me, and I have the GPA. I'm a little skeptic but if Johnny Mac says I can do it, I'm going to at least try. He also said that the most successful SMs are Yale graduates and SMs in general. I'm really excited now :-).
I was asked to live off campus in the main theatre house next year, unfortunately I can't now because I'd have to sign a lease for the whole year. Although the lease is only for 4 people it is a 5 bedroom house so I might just do what Sam is doing this semester and live there without the landlord knowing. Actually that's what they've been doing for the past two years as far as I know. We'll see what happens.
Well that's the current update.
And yes, Mary I will be home for Christmas, I'm just not staying for the whole break if i can help it.

My show opens in 2 weeks (17-20) who's coming?
