Belch. burp. fart. sleep

Not much has changed in my world.

At the moment I'm enjoying peace and quiet in the dorms. I really have learned to love this work shift. I really get a lot of thinking done.

So. Some exciting news. I may or may not be doing some classes at Second City very soon. I had been emailing a lady there and sent her some information and she approved me to get into a particular class called Improv for Actors. Normally there are two 8 week sessions for this but I would be able to do a combined course so I would do both courses in 1 single 8 week period. It sounds like a lot of fun. Coincidentally, my friend Stephen who lives in Chicago has a friend who is possibly needing someone to sublease her apartment for the exact days I would be there. She is still a little iffy on whether or not she plans on doing it or not, but the thought of living in Chicago for 8 weeks during the summer sounds absolutely beautiful. I loved the city and would love to see it in the spring time. Then maybe catch it as it changes to fall. With the excitement of the news I opened my mouth too soon and probably talked about it too much and if it doesn't happen I'll look like a fool.

I thought the program was one of those "of course you're accepted, you're paying us to be here!" but a friend told me he has known people to get rejected from the program and weren't able to take the class. So that made me feel good. What would happen is I would take this class, then audition to be in the conservatory. From there, I would take several other classes at different levels and work my way up 6 I believe. After that I am able to audition for a company member.

Either way it sounds fun and gives me an excuse to move there.

Besides that not much is different.

I had a nice Spring Break. I got to see some good friends. Even got coffee/donuts/tea with a friend, and it was really nice. The last time we really saw and talked to each other things got real ugly and I was officially blocked from facebook and his life and blah blah blah blah blah and it was really important for me to see him again just to get that section of my life closed for good. It was nice, we talked about that situation and even were able to joke about it, and catch each other up on our lives. He's a great person and I owe a lot of where I'm at today to him. We started out as complete strangers and for whatever reason we were able to tell each other a lot from the beginning. I think it was the fact that we were both outsiders into each others lives so I couldn't judge him and vice versa. Then we became friends. Then enemies. And now friends again. So it's nice!

Rehearsals keep me busy. Not as busy as I anticipated, but busy.
This weekend I'm going back to Wichita for my sisters birthday. That should be a lot of fun. I love Wichita. I really do. But I just don't think I want to LIVE there. I like the feeling of going home after not being there for months and just noticing something different. No matter how small it is. Oh that restaurant is now closed, or there is construction on Broadway, or this store opened. For the first time I may be in Wichita over fall and I'm actually kind of excited. I haven't been to a Fall Fest in years, and while I'm sure it's not as thrilling as it once was, it will be nice to get a funnel cake, or some corn, or a huge corndog, or a lemonade from the lemon shaped stand.

It's the little things.


....oh.... and the reason my post is titled "Belch. burp. fart. sleep" is because that's exactly what I want to do right now.
