Poppets and Accusations

Back from break to jump right into The Crucible rehearsals which consisted of giggles, groping and gasps. Ha, i was actually able to list three things that actually happened if it is considered groping when you grab some one's hair. My group is doing the second half of Act III and i have the pleasure of being Abigail (who screams ALOT). But i have some issues with this one section as far as giggles go :


DANFORTH, blanched, in horror, turning to Abigail:
You deny every scrap and tittle of this?

ABIGAIL: If I must answer that, I will leave and I will not come back again!

Call it immature, dumb or whatever you want but the word tittle makes Erin (she plays Danforth) and i crack up! This in turn messes up everything because i'm supposed to be angry and once it peeks out the character is broken and i can't scream proper. We don't even have to say the word and there we go...I have been attempting to make the word unfunny, but no amount of repetition or overuse helps and it might be a lost cause. Other than that, so far the costumes are coming along splendidly and i whipped out an apron and collar yesterday which looks pretty damn good for a whimsy 45 minutes of work. But that's all i can delve into today because i have to get back to the grid iron and learn those lines before May 8th!

Vegan Taxidermy? I'm in!

So whilst surfing the other day I came upon this post: (here's the link http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=27267.0;topicseen ) and not remembering I've had a blog since I was 14 (one of the middle school things that go along with myspace) my poor forgotten and neglected blog needed to be reupholstered sooo, this bring me to the topic:
A pig rug made out of FAUX fur! how amazing, I am definetly making one of these for my room and i might venture as far as to try and make a Tiger one as well. But I definetly thought this was swift (that means cool, it's slang that I made up, pass it around) enough to go here since i am a vegetarian. Oh, I guess I never mentioned that...well yes, I am a vegetarian as of January 2009. (Yay! New Years Resolutions). Well that's it for this week, Happy Easter all and see you back here on Monday!

Spring Break Day 1

okay, so maybe today wasn't super exciting but at least i was doing something functional, I finnished designing the costumes for "The Crucible"... Still bored so i made swatches too, the dork i am. Eariler I attempted to exercise but ADD took over and I only got half way through which is actually an improvement because normaly i just sit there and have a laughing fit at the cheesyness of it all. Oh, i have big news...i got into C.A.S.A (capitol area school of the arts) the P.M. class for the super good artists! at the end of the year we do a big art show which will be exciting so now i can't wait for Junior year! I get to spend have a day at CD high then i hop on over to the city and do art for the rest of the day. AHHHH could life get any better? maybe add some chocolate and cookie dough, yes absolutly. now i'm going to eat because it's long over due and i might just use that tofu that's been in there for a week (unopened of course) then i was planning on going over to Christine's but it fell through, Parents get you everytime. I attempted to call everyone else but they all have family coming over or nobody's home so POO! today was boring as HELL, but i've still got 4 days left to make this thing called spring break work.
