This semester is crazy... First of all, I've volunteered to work on every show. So far it hasn't been too bad. I mean, the musical review was a bit stressful (but due to some drama with certain people) and Dracula just ate up mostly all of my 'free' time, not to mention school work piling up! But all that aside, things have been manageable. I haven't had the chance to really do much art-y projects outside of classwork. Makes me sad. I have so many ideas but no time to follow through with them! Argh. That's the worst. A bazillion times worse than Art Block. Trust me. At least I have my new tiny Moleskine sketchbook! I swear, this thing is my security blanket! I hardly go anywhere without it.
Anywho... so what I'm working on now... Well we're just a few days from Tech'ing Love of the Nightingale. For this show I'm assistant to the designer, painter, and props master (call me a prop tart! haha!). Sounds like an assload of work, eh? Well it isn't too bad. The design was already finished and there isn't much painting to be done and most of the props have been taken care of by the designer (my and my co-prop man, :happygoatguy: aren't allowed to actually buy the props... something with the University doesn't allow us to use the card for whatever reason, so we basically scout around and tell people where to go and buy stuff). But there are some awesome things that we are doing as props people *big smile!*. We have to make a sword and a dagger Yay! In all the production meetings, the thought of having to make a sword (or swords) always kept me in an awesome mood. Process shots of those projects will be posted as soon as we get them done. (I promise.)
Um......... what else? Meh, I'll write another journal later. I'm actually gonna go do some homeworks.

I love you all!
