I'm back now! Yes, I was home this weekend! I wasn't planning on it, but I had to cause I needed to get stuff for my interview on tuesday. It was a very good weekend home, except I didn't get homework done, which I kinda planned on, so yeah...
I have got my suit, two ties, two shirts (cause I can't decide the colors), nice shoes, and a nice bag to carry my nice files in. Also, today I got a haircut! It isn't as weird as I thought it would be, but it's also not as short as I planned on it being. But it's still nice cause it's manageable. The only problem is that I feel that without my hair to distract attention, I feel that my acne kinda stands out =/ Also, I think I have chubby cheeks, but Adam says it's just my cheekbones, which does not make me feel any better at all, lol.
It was funny, today the guy who cut my hair was like, really flamboyant and funny, and he knew a lot about hair, but not much else, haha. Like, we were talking about traveling cause I told him what my interview was for, and he was like "Well, I've been to Ireland, but that's about it. I traveled down the...this is the east coast, right?" hehe it reminded me of Beauty and the Geek. Which I don't watch. Seriously. It's just on right before Reaper! I swear!
No, but seriously.
So my plan for Tuesday is that I am going to get to the bus station by 8:30, cause the bus leaves at 9:30, and I'll get to NYC at 12:15, which will leave me plenty of time to get lost and then find the building right on time. Nah, I should be fine, the port authority is only about a mile away from Helmsley Building on Park Avenue. I'll probably get there like...hours early. Luckily, I will have plenty of books to read! Also, I will be too panicked to read so having books won't really matter. I will probably stare at my application and lesson plan and just give up hope or something.
What sucks is I have no way to transport my suit without it getting extremely wrinkled, so I will end up having to wear it on the bus and everything. Oh well. I emailed my awesome cousin Margo this weekend on my mom's suggestion to see if I could crash at her place, but her friend is gonna be in town for an audition and she was already promised the futon, but it's no big deal. I will probably end up just catching the bus back to Albany that night, cause I don't think I'll get a call back. I mean, second interview XD But yeah, I am trying to think of this as only a practice interview in preparation for the Amity one in November. But if I do end up needing to stay over, Nicole from work said I can stay at her place. Hotels in Manhattan are really expensive!!
For my lesson plan, I decided to do what Christina suggested (cause I think she did this also) and I am going to teach animals and colors. But mostly colors. What I have in the lesson plan is that the students will have colored in their favorite animal outline with their favorite color, and then they'd all stand in a circle and present it with a statement, and then ask another student to tell about theirs. The email from Aeon said that it should help their conversational skills, so I think this should help a bit. I also had a fun game planned, but I couldn't find a beach ball anywhere, so that wouldn't work.
Anyways, this weekend, I went back home and ended up getting to see "Noises Off" at the rivoli. My mom was in it, and so was a friend of hers, Tom (who is, btw, totally awesome as hell). The show was, I must say, freakin hilarious! It is, I think, the best play that they SCDW has done in years! It's just, a completely chaotic show full of mishaps and whatnot, and I was laughing like crazy throughout. I saw it the second night as well, and it was still just as funny! The thing is, it's about an acting troupe who are doing a play called Nothing On, and like, in the first act, nobody knows their lines at all, or their staging, and so it alternates between them acting a play within the play, and then acting amongst themselves. The second act is entirely what is going on backstage on their opening night, and it's full of drama of the funniest sort and all that nice stuff XD The last act shows them all just doing the play on the last leg of their tour, and the cast is just beat and no one cares, and it's just complete pandemonium of the most hilarious sort. I am so so happy I got to see it, and it went so well! Even though it didn't cause a lot of people kept forgetting their lines and stuff, cause they've hardly had any full cast rehearsals, but the great thing about this show is that most of the time, forgetting your lines is fine because they're supposed to be actors in a really bad play, haha
It was a movie (I don't remember if it was before the play or after) with John Ritter, Christopher Reeves, Michael Caine, Carol Burnett, and others. It's funny, but I think the play is better. I never saw the end of the movie. But yeah, I can't wait to go see it again next weekend.
Mostly because, by then I will have finished my interview.
Which is the first thing on my mind. I don't even care that my English midterm essay is due less than 24 hours from now, and I still have one more essay to do.[myuzIk] ♪: Stay Away- Tommy D. |
