First Post

I don't even remember making this blog...seriously. BUT I guess I'll use it.
So today hell week starts. We open Noises Off on Thursday, but actually, I think we might just be ready! I'm sound head, which isn't too bad, I'm mostly by myself (well, Rachel's up there too, but she really doesn't know anything yet) which means that I don't have to argue with anyone or answer to anyone. I just do my thing.
I don't really like the play itself, I'm not a big fan of farces, but as an objective observer, it is really funny, and its the kind of funny the average Stevens High School Student would understand. The best part is probably the second act...because I actually get to sit and enjoy that act, as it were, since there are next to no sound cues. No, but seriously, y'all should go see it!
I'm writing an "idiot's guide" to the sound system for posterity, since it took me 3 years to learn enough to keep the thing from exploding...I figure I'll give the underclassmen a break and just write down everything I've learned from trial and error so they don't have to go through the hell I did. I'm also trying to write it in regular English that doesn't take a degree in sound engineering to figure out.

In my personal life...I'm feeling a bit...abandoned. Again. As usual. One of my good friends has discovered "love" and now I never get to see her. It's kind of frustrating being in this situation yet again. It seems like ever since I moved here, its been a series of these painful splits in friendships...but of course the one time I got out before I could get burned, I still felt awful, and just recently have I actually explained my reasoning to the person I did it to. Maybe thats really all that life is...a series of painful burns that you just have to live with and keep moving. It really sucks though, now that I think about it...because looking with a clear and rational mind, the person who most recently burned me just seems more likely to do that sort of thing, whereas the person I burned would probably never in a million years do something like that to me. Shows you how smart I am.
Well, I'd best be on my way, so until next time gentle reader
