5 Months Later

Posted by Rachel on October 14, 2008

Hey everyone who has read this blog. I’m coming to you now a little bit into my junior year. I’m living in a house with all of my friends, and it’s amazing. I just came back from fall break with my ex and another friend. I kinda wrecked up my diet but who the hell cares, I’ll just get back on track. I’ve lost 15 lbs since I was last writing this blog, and had an amazing internship at a residential treatment facility for emotionally disturbed teens. I’m feeling good about my life, better than I’ve ever felt before. And this will be my last post on StS.

Oh Shit.

Posted by Rachel on May 2, 2008

The way things sit… I’d have to get all my class participation points and ace the final to get an 88 in Psychology of Adolescence. Which I’m not. It leaves me with the terrifying realization that I might get a C+ in this class. Holy Shit. He gave us an opportunity for a 4 points of extra credit. Guess how I am spending MY morning.

Change of Minor

Posted by Rachel on April 28, 2008

Instead of going through the hoops of designing a minor, I’m just going to be a theatre minor. I already have Acting and Costume design under my belt. I’m taking Directing next semester.

So far next semester looks like this-

Directing
Stats
Geology
Intro to Film

I’m gonna change it up to

Directing
Stats
Theatre History 1
Modern European Drama
Geology (Pass/Fail)

I think I can pull that off.

Sorry I haven’t been all posty. On top of work and convention and an internship interview (which I landed, details to come) my grandfather just passed away so… time = occupied.

In the spirit of fixing my life, I tried two new things this break- tofu and skiing. I like both. But the skiing… therein lies pain.
