I Look Like I'm In Pain...

Miss Marleigh Culver has inspired me to write more with a kind comment on my last detailed blog. So here I am. Under a week (?) from my last entry. w00t!

So I had an actually pleasant conference with my devil (as in this lady is actually a human form of satan) of a teacher. She said that I had good ideas and had something legit to work with. In other words: I DON'T SUCK!!!! YAYYYYYYYYY!!! You have no idea after the heartbreak/mindbreak which was the first progression how happy this made me. The lecture we were required to go to recently: no so much happiness. Apperently the girl was really insightful but I couldn't understand a word coming out of her mouth. She was an author, an Iraqi woman. I think this was her first time to New York City. Anyways the venue we went to was cool though. Apperently it was the place were a presidental candidate named Abraham Lincoln made some speech that eventually won him the presidency. It's called Cooper Union.

I saw Pygmalion on Broadway Thursday night. It's with Claire Danes. The movie My Fair Lady is based upon it. Only I discovered something (to a theatre kid) that is funny:

In My Fair Lady, Audrey ends up happy to be with Higgens, as his servant but equal. But in the play, Eliza discovers her own womanhood and leaves Henry.

In the movie A Streetcar Named Desire, Stella decides to leave Stanley because she believes he has done horrible things. In the play, Stella is torn between her attraction to Stanley/she semi-believes he is right and her loyalty to her sister, but ends up staying with Stanley.

Movie cop outs.

A little drama her in the apartment but nothing that I really care about. I have found that I am increasingly good at spereating myself from things I don't want to be apart of. Which is bad in the sense that: if I don't like this class I will seperate myself from it.

Anyway, the show gets a C+ in my opinion, with the Farnsworth Invention at an A, and Cyrano de Bergerac at a B.

Oh yeah, I totally saw Cyrano de Bergerac last night. Be jealous.

It starred Kevin Kline, Jennifer Garner and Daniel Sunjata. It was really good. The sets of all these shows just blow my mind. I MEAN TALK ABOUT THEATRICALLITY!!! WOOOWZAH. Damn. That's all that can be said. Damn.

Oh by the way, if anyone is interested in buying me one of the dresses in Cyrano, feel free.

Jennifer Garner's performance was about a B. Kline the same and Sunjata at a B+.

I wanted to wait for Kline to come out but my toes about fell off.

And let me explain my picture with Jennifer. I am cold, wet, and tired, and the lady behind me had just shoved her green umbrella into my picture so I was straining terribly to get into the shot at all.

Tommorrow I am going to do rush for Cymbeline, wihch I will explain later.

All in all good night. I ended up playing card, mental, electronic games with P, Lindsay, Fabi, the boyfriend MAnny, and Susan and Sophie for about two hours.

Can't sleep tonight again. Have been up for about 20 hours and I am now getting the wisps of sleep. I really am an Insominiac. Less that nine hours in the past two days and I'm bouncy. I really don't know whether to think of it as a gift or a curse. Preferably a gift that I am trrying hard not to abuse.

Sick Sick Sick

SO yeah, last night I came home. I went to the Wellness Center on Wednesday and they gave me some behind the counter strength sudafed. But it didn't get better. It got worse. And the creepy spider bite that was on my right ear, is now on my left ear. So I went to the doctor here and told him my symptoms and he thinks I have broncotis (sp, I don't care). So I got an antibiotics thats supposed to take care of that and my skin infection on my ears. I think I have MRSA because they say it is often mistook for spider bites, swollen skin, and pus filled sores. Hello!?! yeah, that's what I have.

Daddy and I waited in the doctor's waiting room for almost 2 hours and it took another like 40 mins to finally gin et outta there. They swabbed my throat and it came out negative but they are sending it out anyway. We also went by the eye doctor. They gave me some Daily contacts to try. They are thinner and disposable. So that means no hassale of cleaning and no worries of eye problems that way.

Oh let me catch you all up on my illness/injuries:

1. Huge quarter sized blister on big toe of left foot from walking in the parade HAlloween night in practically new shoes. I totally popped it. IT was like a little explosion. Took a bunch of paper towels to wipe it up. Did I mention I like popping things?

2. Broken toenail. SEe above.

3. Bruises. Adler is abusive.

4. Cramps. Period blues.

5. Sore throat. Cold issues force me not to talk and now I can't work on voice work which SUCCCCCKKKKKSSSSSS.

6. Runny nose. Better than a stuffy one I suppose.

7. Cough. Probably from the last two items.

8. Sinus Headache.

9. Stye in eye. Doesn't bother me anymore but then again it isn't gone. If it isn't gone by Christmas break, I will look into it further. I haven't heard of eye cancer before but I could be wrong.

10. Clogged glans in eye. Supposed to be taking fish oil and flaxseed oil supplement and a vitamin but I often forget to take it before meals as I refuse to take them at breakfast. (my reasoning I don't want the first thign I eat in the morning to be pills) But I might have to change that now.

Top it off with OCD, a slight curve in my spin, insomnia, stress, anxiety, and low blood pressure causing me to faint more than normal and you've got yourself one messed up child! Yay! 10 bucks says I get the flu, a bladder infection or need eye surgery by the end of the year.

After the doctor Mom Dad and I went to Max and Ermas. It was yummy even though I couldn't taste it fully. We started talking about geneology and I asked Mom if we could start looking into ours. She said that she's gonna get on it. She also said she would get me a trash can for my bathroom but that never happened.

Anywho, I feel like crap but mommy and daddy are taking care of me. Mommy just bought me some warmer pjs and some slippers (which totally rocks cause I hated the last ones I had).

Sarah left today. I left her note saying goodbye because obviously I'm not up there to say goodbye to her today. Apperently I won't get a new roomate for a month or so or more likely not until the next semester (after Christmas break). Hopefully I can keep a single. If I get a new roommate I ask Lee (my general Tisch advisor) to see what he can do. I need space for my creativity. Or so I will say.

So right now I'm listening to Daddy practice guitar through the vents (he is above the garage). Mom and I are going to pick up my prescription tonight and then going to maybe get a movie, as I don't feel up to doing anything else. I doubt I'll make the movie. I'm supposed to be napping but for some reason I haven't been tired until suddenly right now. The doctor is also giving me some stuff to make me sleep better (aka knocks me out liquid medicene).
