eggs? bacon or sausage? salad or homefries? wheat, sourdough, or an english muffin? coffee or tea? juice? orange? grapefruit? watermelon? or carrot?

i quit the standard!

I can't believe it. after working there a little over a year, i have had thousands of interactions with people from all around the world. It was a positive learning experience and I do not have an ounce of regret for having worked there. Yes, i have many things that i would change had i the chance, but who wouldn't. i'm going to be working at the gym full time now. i think it will be good for me for awhile, but I will sure miss dealing with shit like this everyday..................

Sound check, please.

Last night as you know was opening night for Studio 1954. Running extremely late, Ryan, Tory and I showed up about ten minutes before curtain. We quickly threw ourselves through our stunts and got to places. The three of us were squeezed backstage with about eight other girls and a wardrobe chick while we listened for our cue. "Alright, we've got a pack of live acrobats going on in 60 seconds, places everybody!" Our music starts and plays for about eight counts when all of a sudden the music skips, shuts off, then the music from the first scene began playing, then that stopped and ours started again!!! Umm?! We continued on with our routine as we should, music or not. We hit every move and we looked great! Maybe tonight the sound guy will have his shit in order.

Opening Night

I cannot believe that it is already may 9th! It feels as if new years eve was just yesterday!

Tonight is opening night for the production of Studio 1954. Over the last few weeks, I have struggled with time management to put together my piece for the show. Not only did i struggle with time, but I also was challenged with casting my act. Without being able to gain a few professional acrobats to perform with me, I figured I'd just make them myself. Ryan, and his best friend, Tory were quickly appointed as they are both extremely talented actors and dancers. We put together a total of about 6 routines before we have finally settled on the one we will perform tonight. I'm going to try to get it on video. Check back soon for that.
