He said you be Debbie Harry, I'll be Joey Ramone.

So apparently the last time I posted I was in the middle of working behind curtains of How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying. Those days ended quite some weeks ago. Taking a rest has been nice, but I miss going every day and feeling useful and having the awesome feeling of knowing I'm working towards my future and dream job <3

LUCKILY, I'll be back to doing just that on the 10th of this month, and this time tackling a new task - stage lighting! I can't wait. It's gonna be hard in the beginning...I don't have the slightest idea on how working in the lighting booth goes. There's lots and lots of buttons, so uh...it'll be confusing. My partner in lighting and friend Dante takes a lighting class, though. So that should help a bit, haha. The play this time is The Music Man. A show I don't even like, but of well. My friend Adam is acting in it and has one of the leading roles. He also sings the only memorable song, being "Shipoopie" (with a title like that, how can it NOT be memorable?).

I finished all the books mentioned in the previous post, and am now on to others. As usual, I'm working on a few at a time.
Fun Home; A Family Tragicomic by Alison Bechdel
The Predators by I can't remember
and I was about to say Paper Towns by John Green, but I remembered I finished it the other night. So I guess I'm not really reading many books this time. Paper Towns was good, though. When I need a break from things John Green books are great. He tells great stories with a serious tone but can always add laughs.

Last weekend my mom and I went all the way to Napa to see a high school production of "Les Miserables," one of my favorite musicals...even though I had never seen it live until that day. But I assure you, my soundtrack of it is quite worn out and begs for a vacation every week. Seeing the whole thing acted out rather that just listening to it made me understand the story a lot more. It was amazing considering that it was a high school done play. Mom thought so even more. She was crying in the end. A lot. And then she called her friend Margy and cried some more! So it was a fun day (:

And the greatest news, I'm going to Texas to visit my greatest and bestest friend in the whole universe in July! Brittany, here I come! We're both super excited. We haven't seen each other at all since she moved - almost three years ago. We're making a list of things to do and everything. Her uncle is also going to take us to a Jack's Mannequin/The Fray concert.

I AM SO SO SO SO SO EXCITED!!!
