Why is being extremely busy so hard to get over?

I finished up the play this weekend! It was a good experiance for me to grow and help with making a big decision. I'm majoring in both music and theater!! I know it is a lot of work but I am willing to put in the effort to graduate with both!!

Anyway, the play went well. Seats were either sold out or close to it everynight!! That is good for the Theater Department here!! We had a critic from the Kennedy Center America competition committe come on Friday. He mainly had good things to say. Most of the negative went to set design. I had SO much fun!!! But it was plenty of work as well.

Now with the play done, I have plenty of time to do homework, church, callings, and being a regular college kid. I don't know if I can handle that!!

Meagan, congrats on the birth of Sarah Mai! My RD (resident director) just had a baby on Friday too! His name is Lincoln David Maggard. He weighs 10 lbs and 2 oz, and is 20 in long. That is one big baby!!

Well, I love you all and can't wait to see you all soon!!

Being Chased by a Rhinoceros!!!

This week has been getting busier with the play opening night coming up this coming Friday!!! While doing this, I've been trying to keep up in all of my classes and fulfill my calling to the best of my capabilities.

I wish all of you in Chesapeake and other family spread through out the country could come and support me in my first college production!! As far as videos go, the department won't be filming, but parents and others can if they get permission. Admission is $4 for SVU students, fauclty, staff, and seniors. $6 for others. This is cheaper than the tickets for She Loves Me that was produced last semester.

Stay safe and warm in this winter weather and know that I love you all!!

Snow Does Exist!!

This weekend I have finally witnessed a great snow!!! It was about a foot deep of the powder stuff, but we are suppose to expect more winter weather this week!!

Last week seemed to go on FOREVER!!!! I didn't get a healthy amount of sleep (see Papi, I only had 10 hours of sleep total Monday and Tuesday nights, Wednesday was about 6, and Thursday was 8), and classes were getting confusing, and play practise was not tons of fun.

But Friday changed the mood for the weekend. Since I had slept for 8 hours the night before, I was well rested for classes and I understood more of what was going on. Forum was the best though. One of the professors performed with his traditional Appalachian music band. The percussion was the best part of it!! He used mostly his body to make the best sound effects!! And he could dance!! AMAZING!!!

Saturday was mostly snowy with play practise in the morning. Sunday was relaxing as well. We have a new convert in our ward. His name is Donny Cox and yes he attends VMI, Virginia Military Institute. He is quite funny.

Well that's all I have to say about that!!!
