If you can't tell, it's a Twilight brand Sweetheart candy with "pearlescent pigment" that says DAZZLE.
other phrases consist of "LIVE 4 EVER" "I <3 EC" "LAMB" "U R MY LIFE" "I TRUST YOU"
etc etc
They taste really horrible, burn, and offend all my senses. I still feel the burn in my nose.

Landlord has 14 days to get rid of the bedbugs or else she's going to court.
She called me and was acting all "nice" to me and was totally freaking out.
Haha.
However this means that we have to not only wash everything in the apartment, but pack it all up as if we were moving. That should be fun...
In other news I am going to be working on a play this summer, to be put on early September. It was my teacher's idea to create a play from scratch about the Boston molasses flood of 1919. In my set design class the other day, he was excited to tell us he had thought of a name for it:
"MOLASSACRE!"
oh boy.
So yeah it should be a total mess of a play but also fun I hope! I am currently on the scriptwriting team but I will also be performing and helping with costumes and who knows what else.
Also I guess now I'm the treasurer of the theatre club. The club doesn't really do anything and no one shows up but hopefully that will change next year...

I just got an email from the president of the dance group I am in. The performance date is being changed to April 3rd. I will be in NYC that day. And the reason they are changing the day from the 2nd to the 3rd?
MTV SUPERDANCECREW BLAH BLAH is coming to Northeastern and they just simply HAVE TO SEE IT.
Ridiculous. And now I won't be able to actually perform the 2 dances I've been working on all semester. The group is run by a bunch of freshmen girls so I shouldn't be surprised at this idiocy.
Tonight was an Acting Out performance. It's the group I work with that puts on stuff about domestic violence and whatnot. My main job was helping out with direction because the people in the group are not actors and overall don't know what they're doing. Unfortunately I had to miss a bunch of those rehearsals because of more important rehearsals, so basically they were left without a director. That's not the worst of it though. Today before the show we met up and they went over lines and stuff. It disappoints me, pisses me off, and even depresses me that on the very night of their show these people don't know their lines even though they were supposed to memorize them over spring break. I can't really even expect them to act or even think about what they're saying; but my god they should at least know their lines. They also can't commit to anything. We had to BEG one guy to come on the stage and say two lines. He was just soooo busy drinking with his brahs that it was such a goddamn struggle to get him to participate in the group that he is supposed to be the TREASURER of. So I was disappointed because of that because not knowing your lines and not showing up is just completely unacceptable. I just wish I had all the time to have rehearsals several times a week and actually direct it. Oh and also to get a better script, because Christ it needed work.
Why do I continue to work with Acting Out? Because I feel obligated to, Maya (the president) keeps saying "I don't know what we'd do without you," and I have a hope that next semester I can have the time to overhaul the way things run completely. I NEED to take charge of the group if anything is to be done right.
UGHGHGHGUHGHGH
On the bright side, I had a job interview today with Boston Children's Theatre for a costume job. Important to note that this is a PAID POSITION. And there is a free shuttle to where I would need to be. So I hope I get it. The kids will be performing RENT in the summer. Child Rent sounds hilarious.
Also on the bright side, yesterday my acting class was replaced by this crazy movement workshop where we did all these acrobatic flips and lifting people upside down and stuff. Though I was not feeling very well and I felt like I was going to black out, it was still fun. And then right after that I showed my Shakespeare monologue to Antonio, my favorite teacher, and he liked it a lot, which made me feel a lot better about it...I think I'll audition for Comedy of Errors with the Commonwealth Shakespeare Company so it was good that I got his feedback on it. Commonwealth Shakespeare is the company that does free Shakespeare in Boston Commons during the summer.
As far as Vagina Monologues go: I was cut out of two of my monologues, but given one other one. So I have 3 total. It's not that bad though it is a little disappointing. I know I am doing well with what I have though.
ALSO: THIS MAN (ON THE RIGHT) HAS RUINED ONE OF OUR TECH REHEARSALS!

We had scheduled a tech rehearsal Monday night. As it turns out, Zach Galifianakis has taken up the exact space and time of that rehearsal.
This sucks because: 1) We do not have a real tech rehearsal and have to rehearse elsewhere 2) I CAN'T SEE ZACH GALIFIANAKIS FOR $5, AT NORTHEASTERN, BECAUSE I HAVE REHEARSAL ELSEWHERE ANYWAY
But...this is called priorities.... Something that freshman girl dance group presidents need to learn about.
