Well...I got up and went to theatre tech expecting a lecture on some form of desiging...but no I get manual labor instead. I was like I'm not in the mood to do anything today. So, I quickly took over as supervisor position. Okay, here you do that and you do this and that needs to be here. Because I'm a loud bitch mostly right? I know you all out there agree. Then went on the druge through another borning script anyalisis. I keep thinking through the whole thing "Is it me or did I have this already?" But I sit there give my thoughts occasionally so I can participation credit and then I leave. I hate that class. Then I went on to German. Which I think is kicking my ass. That is why I signed up for a tutor. Yea. That is how much it is kicking my ass in all of my college career I have never had to do that. Then I came to my room slept. Woke up went to a healty three mile walk with Amanda and the splured the heathliness away at Perkins. Just finished my homework and now waiting to talk to Patrick - who made it back alive thanks for the thoughts.

Dr. Ruth Westheimer's Game of Good Sex. Based on her sexual advice talk shows, the game allows couples to try and accumulate Arousal Points in quest of Mutual Pleasure.
Is The Pope Catholic? In 1986, two Boston-based entrepreneurs manufactured this game. Players move around the board trying to attain the rank of pope. Among the obstacles along the way: nipping at holy wine and squandering the church's money
on candy.
Twinkies and Trolls. The proprietors of "Buddies," a gay bar in Boston, invented this game, in which players come out of the closet, visit their first gay bar and the "baths" in New York, San Francisco, Provincetown, and Ft. Lauderdale.
NUKE: The Last Game on Earth. Developed by two architects, Chris Corday and Steve Weeks. The game gives players the chance to be world leaders, deciding the fate of the world. If they can't work out their problems, the world is destroyed.
Bankruptcy. The object is to acquire as many companies as possible without going bankrupt. If you do declare bankruptcy, however, you have to play Russian roulette with a toy gun included with the set. If the gun pops, you're out.
It's Only Money. In 1989, more than 25 major companies paid $30,000 apiece to have their products promoted in this game. Each company got a "storefront" on the board where players browsed in a bustling shopping mall, trying to avoid crowds
on the escalator.

let's see i think i'll like my mondays, other than the fact that i have to work at 6:45 but, you get used to it eventually. today was only german and acting. german was interesting because we have a different professor because the normal professor is in germany. i'm not looking forward to the german homework that she assigned, partly because i don't know what it is because it was in german. this makes it difficult to do one's homework when you can't figure out what it is supposed to be. acting was interesting it was a misner exersie called word repition. it is very bizare but i would like to try it before i made an actual opinion of it - right now it seems fun. now i'm just waiting for it to be time to eat because food is good. i like food. um yea. that is all there is in the interesting life of me.

Well I'm just sitting around not doing anything because I'm doing my laundry and decided to walk down the hall to the computer lab. Today's lesson do laundry more often because draging it down a bunch of stairs is a lot more work than draging it a few feet like I'm use to. Um... Let's see I still don't have net in my room I can't figure out what is wrong with it and I'm getting really cranky because I would like my net to work in my room because then I can have AIM. And I'm not going to freezing my ass off down here. I hate it down here I don't like these keyboards and I don't like how cold it is and I don't like the lights and I really just hate it and it makes me cranky. This net not working in my room thing really sucks. I just want the tech dude to come to my room and fix the goddamn net so I can have net. Is that too much to ask for? Apparently it is. Anyway classes. Um...well...theatre tech was relly boring because it was the shop tour - you know this is a saw use it correctly so that you don't kill your self etc. then there was script I HATE!!!! that class. Which is really sad since it is the second day of class. We get to read Oedipus - again, and A Doll's House - again, and Triffles - again. Then we get to read some bizare plays but one is by August Wilson whom I hate!!! I can't describe how much I hate this dude. *twiches from anger* okay breathe new topic becuase I won't even going into the other one.

Well my day today started at 6:45 yea that would be in the am. Actually my day started before that, because I had to get out of bed etc. I had to be at work at 6:45, which for a first day was interesting, because I was under trained and had no idea what was going on it was great fun but since I was smart and took the morning shift nothing happened. The campus army peoples were there before I go there because they are crazy silly like that. I actually don't know if they are campus army peoples but from what they were doing and what little I heard I guess they were because I don't think normal people working out use phrases like "at ease" in there routine. And they all had the same hair cut - that gives it away mostly. Then no one showed up to replace me so I handed the keys back in to the SC and I ran off to class. It wasn't a real run but it was an Adrienne verison of running which to everyone else looks like a brisk walk. I eventually found my class, the Intro to Theatre Technology, the professor was fun and amusing. Today's quote from him, "What is the most poredominate problem in theatre today? Human Sacrifice." -Gary. I guess you had to be there. Then he handed out a pre-test to see what we knew about Theatre Tech. After, time was up instead of like a class participation thing like I think he was hoping for it turned into Adrienne telling the class the answers because no one else knew them. It wasn't all the answers because when someone else knew one of the easy ones (like what is blocking?) he had them answer instead of me. And amazingly there was 9 of them that I didn't know what they were because it was a bizare Theatre slang I don't know and those 9 are now our homework. I didn't think that was too bad considering the list was two pages long front and back. So, I think that I'm not too worried about that class. I might be more concerned when we flip sections in October and it is in the costume constuction part. Because I can sew and everything I even made my own skirt once but I know very little about the technical names and proper way to do things. Anyway after we were shown how to use d2l (which isn't any different than at Fox) I went on to my next class. Script Anaylsis. It was different. Yea. We gave our names, major, minor, hometown, and then asked us a question so we could possible see the deeper meaning in why that person gave that answer. My question was "If you could be an animal what one would you want to be." I told him that I planned on being reincarnated into a house cat. He then asked why that was and I explained that I like sleep. And Catnip looks like it would be a pretty good high and so far we haven't seen adverse effects to it. It was an amusing class because the majority of us in Theatre Tech, are in this class as well. The only bad part of this class was the assignment because the stupid book store didn't have anymore of the book that we need for the class so I didn't get it and we have to read the first two chapters. I told Ken about it and he said don't worry about it because the book store always screws up and it isn't a big deal just get the notes of the net and pay attention in class and get the book asap. Then, on to German. This is was kinda freaky because, as soon as class started it was in German and I was like is this not 101? Then it turned out that it was only simple phrases that she kept repeating and I got it eventually. I don't know about that class yet. I think it scary. Then I ate, and came back to my room and called the net peoples and the phone peoples and I should probally get back up there so I can see if they are there or not because I need to be there for them to fix my stuff. I audition tonight and I'm really scared!!!
