• Hello, world. Meet Crissy... She's in for it.

  The first two days of my third year in college have officially passed. This semester, I am taking Calculus, French 311, Psych Stats, and Developmental Psychology. Fun stuff, right? It's all going well so far. The Calculus is an odd story that no one finds funny except for me. I was originally registered for Pre-Calculus but decided that it was way too easy for me (considering I almost fell asleep during his very first lesson because I already knew everything he was talking about). Long story short, I went straight to the registrar after class and transfered to Calculus. After that, I bought the book and went to see my new professor for the first day's assignment and syllabus.

  So far, I'm done with all of my homework except for the reading and chapter pre-test for Developmental Psych. I was too busy re-programming my brain for Calculus to bother with that reading. I also took some awesome notes for Stats. That was fun stuff. I'm glad I'm ahead of the curve in all of my classes so far. French will be super easy because I've already taken the course before and know all of the material. I just need to make sure to participate in class and to do well on all of the culture assignments (my weaknesses).

  I went to the dance audition for Cabaret. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. We went there and did a warm-up dance and then got straight into it. I had a lot of fun, and I think I did really well comparatively. We'll see how my acting/singing audition will go. The only component of the auditions that I don't think I'll do well on is the acting audition. I'm really nervous about it because I've never had to do an acting audition before. I've never done a monologue like this before, and I'm not sure what the process is for the auditions. I know I sing my song and read my monologue. I know I have to read/recite the monologue twice in two different ways. I just don't know if I'm supposed to look a certain way or do certain things in between the different parts of the audition. I'm sure about singing, just not completely sure about the acting. We'll see. I've decided that I would enjoy any role, even a chorus role. I just want the opportunity to be in the musical for fun's sake. There's nothing wrong with that, is there?

  After the audition on Friday, we all went to a party. It was a lot of fun once people started playing beer pong. We all just hung out and talked. I ordered two pizzas for us all to share. It was partly due to the fact that I was drunk and incredibly hungry. I had a great time, though. I've never been that drunk before. It was an interesting feeling but not one that I am willing to duplicate any time soon. It's just too vulnerable. It's just asking for it, especially since I was in a partially unfamiliar place with people I knew and some I didn't. Note to self: Make better choices. Still, I had a great time, and I can't wait to hang with that crowd again very soon.
