Yes, I'm still alive, just very. very. busy.
It's fun, and I enjoy it, but it does mean I like to sleep more then I like to update my xanga. So right now I'm taking my last couple hours before I get even MORE busy and trying to use them wisely. I don't know why I decided updating this xanga was a good use if the time but whateverrrrr.
And yeah, you may ask whats been keeping me so busy and I'll try to give you a little rundown. First, its summer which means BEACH TIME BABY!!! I live there some days, and the rest of the time I nurse my sunburns. I definitely am tanner then I ever have been even if it comes with a bit of pain. Second, I started taking care of Olivia, my neighbors dog again because she was pregnant and then had eight puppies, so I take care of them too. They are two weeks old today and still haven't opened their eyes, as far as I know. I haven't seen them since Friday. But they are starting to walk, or um... stumble around which is adorable to watch.
Third, I started the apprenticeship at the Playhouse just outside of town. It's AWESOME!!!! My sisters just finished up Beauty and the Beast last night, since they were both in it, and it was FABULOUS!!! Better then when the big huge theater in a couple towns over did it, and I liked some of the characters more then in the movie or the broadway show. Most of the actors were from New York city, which mean the quality of the show was better then anything we've ever done before. I was not in the show, as I'm doing the apprenticeship, but I got to see it six times, and as part of my program I got to talk to some of the actors in it. Like I said, last night it closed and it was the best show I had seen them do. The energy was way up high which is really important and three of the actors families were there so the audience was AWESOME! My favorites in the show was not Belle or the beast as you would expect but Lumiere and Cogsworth. They were both HYSTARICAL! and brought so much life and energy to the show it was just amazing. And LuFue and Gaston were both just great! Billy and Dan, who played them are the two lead actors for the summer, they have lead parts in all the shows. Billy is playing the lead male in the next show, which will be soooo different from LeFue. Thoroughly Modern Milly opens tuesday and I am SO. SO. SO. SO. EXCITED about it!!!! From things I've heard its going to be GREAT and I love the show soooo much and I'm just really excited!!!
Mom decided that this summer I need to read a bunch of Classics so I've been doing that. I finished A Northern Light a couple weeks ago, and just finished To Kill a Mockingbird. I know, shocking, I've never read it till now. I loved it though, and after each book I have to write something on it, which I actually have to do after I finish writing this. Ugh.
I've been spending a lot of time hanging out with friends of course, every monday is pretty much taken up with socializing because my sisters boyfriend Sean comes for the day, and he and I get along really great so we have fun. Plus Sean's cousin Nick came up for a couple weeks and he's been coming too which is even more fun. They came today all day because we all did a 5k walk for abused woman together in the port. That didn't take very long, but then Sean's car broke down and we were stranded at the beach until Dad came to pick us up, and then he and Nick were stuck at our house until Sean's Dad could come pick them up. It was fun though, although we were all REALLY tired.
And tomorrow starts VBS. I'm a teen crew leader which shall be interesting.... I'm not really excited about it at all... but oh well, all of next week is going to be CA-RAY-ZAY with VBS, the apprenticeship, the puppies and other things that are going on. Plus I'll be heading off to camp in about two weeks, so forgive me if I don't write again till September.
