basically describes where I've been. lol. So...like everyone said, I took on too much. 15 credit hours, being president of the Native club, costuming 2 shows and being a lead in another was too much. I needed it though to show me I do have limits and that there are consequences to surpassing them. I had to drop out of costuming a show. it burned a bridge, one that I don't care too terribly about, but burned a bridge nonetheless. I left them a bit in the lurch, though all they had to do was finish hemming and trimming costumes. i was able to make a REALLY good contact with the other show, which is all that mattered to me, and the director was very impressed with me.
My school and club responsibilities didn't suffer, I don't think. I got a bit behind but after I quit the other show, things lifted and became better. I wasn't as focused as I needed to be on the show I was a lead in and it caused me to learn my lines later than I wanted to. (though, in my defense, there were a LOT of problems with that show in the production side of things that caused it to be such a bad experience. Actually, the director was lazy and had zero communication skills with those of us who weren't "theater majors" but that's an entirely different blog...I take full responsibility for my own actions and I was off book at least a week before the male lead so whatever...) Anyway, I learned a lot from the experience. And that's why I've been so quiet.
I am so excited for...life! I am loving being in school. I am MEANT to teach. I got to go to Albuquerque in the end of October and really found my calling at that Education conference I went to. Again, another post for another day. I just love the direction my life is about to go and i can't wait to get started!
