Life is a Cabaret and the Olympics

-
Wilkommen  back to my blog!

So I just got back from Skidmore's production of Cabaret! It is super late so I will be very brief.

They did a really nice job and the set was fantastic! Although I did not love all the smoking and fog that filled the space. Additionally everyone in the cast was extremely talented and I was very impressed with their voices. What was interesting to me at least is they had the same issue as LHS where you can't hear the performers over the band, which was a little disappointing.

My friends loved the costuming but I felt just kind of meh. I felt like the production I had seen at theater three had done a better job but that could be because of the MONEY!   I did like the cohesion between the girls that was lacking at theater three. There was one actress who they needed to be one of the guys but she then did all of the females dances so it felt unnecessary for her to have such a defined mustache but I wasn't in the production to say otherwise.

Here is where I am so so so confused and I'm reaching out to the theater nerds in the family for clarification. This production had a very different ending than the last production I saw, so... how does this show end?

Today is Saturday and Skidmore's first ever Res-Hall Olympics with free chipotle. I forgot to apply sunscreen so Don't Tell Mama but I got a sunburn on my face and the tops of my hands. The event was solid overall but it was such a nice day that many people preferred to lay around with their friends.

I think that is everything for now
hope you all had a nice week

I lost the game! and other fun traditions

-
One day last week, or maybe it was the week before, was national wear your camp t-shirt day-of which no one (at school) that I know participated. However there is no need to fret because yours truly-super counselor extraordinaire remembered and wore her staff shirt from last summer. This combined with the Hillel retreat where we sang a lot of the end of session songs and an email encouraging us to apply for summer 2020, reminded me of all the little traditions from camp that I wish took place more in my daily life. For my camp friends reading this I hope it doesn't make you too nostalgic, and for everyone else maybe this a way to bring a little bit of fun to the office or maybe the holidays. The pineapple game When you are out with a group of people the first one to point to the pineapple and say I win. Wins. Yep- that's the whole game. I do highly recommend it for group shopping trips as it brings a sense of adventure to what can be a drab day at the mall. Invisible ...

Less Busy

Yesterday I got up and worked on some papers and then around 11 decided to make up my mind for the day. I had a kind bar and hit the road. I went to the Barbican, Postman's Park, and Postal museum The Barbican is a really unique building because it has plants overall the windows. The Postman's Park is much smaller than many parks that I have been to but that there are some titles that describe heroic events live saving children from a fire. Finally the Postal museum was incredible. I didn't think that I would enjoy it nearly as much as I did. Also at the museum, you can ride the mail rail, which is the old mail cart which would run under the city. Overall I had a great time and I was able to walk most of these so I saw many new parts of the city. Today I leave for Derby today to visit a camp friend. Don't expect any more posts until Sunday Morning. Have a Great Weekend!

Meal Prep and a Movie

-
This will be brief because I am going to watch a movie with some friends. Today I got up and read in bed for a bit. I then got up and worked out before going foodshopping. I got stuff for the week and also to make Nutella brownies with. They were pretty good, a little gooey but that didn't stop anyone. I then proofread a paper and did more research for AA overall it was a really chill day.
