Now Holding Royal Fool, Rosepetal Flinger, Cook, and Orchestral Tryouts. Already have the Reader.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): To be completely aligned with cosmic
rhythms in the coming weeks, you'd arrange for rose petals to be thrown
at you each time you opened a door. A gourmet cook would provide a
steady stream of tastes you've never experienced before. A great band
or chamber orchestra would come to your home to play for the best party
you've ever thrown. A friend would read you stories that deepened your
appreciation for how courageous you've been in dealing with your own
struggles. And you would enlist the services of your own royal fool,
who'd be responsible for telling you jokes, identifying incongruities,
and keeping you flexible.

I'll be your water, bathing you clean in liquid peace...

Victory is mine! I got a 92% (2 questions wrong) on my Sound Design midterm, and a perfect score (OHFUCKYES) on the second project with the DAT recorder and the capture/master in ProTools. Eheheh. Wow. Maybe I'm actually *good* at something. Getting perfect scores on projects directly relating to my major make my heart-rate drop slightly back to near normal. Lets see how long *that* lasts. Hello, I'm Daria, I'm almost twenty, I'll have senior status in a quarter, and I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I'M DOING! ...Well, I sorta do, but its just those reoccurring middle-of-the-night panicked crazies that get me. Two nights ago, my room mate walked in to find me lying on the floor of my bedroom laughing hysterically at nothing. That hasn't happened in ages, but it felt good.
Also, I was the only practicum lackey to show up today in my slot. I give one of the guys credit, because he got hit by a car on his bike, and is okay, but needed a day off from power tools, but everyone else... *eyeroll* This girl who's in my timeslot with me was telling me two weeks ago how tech practicum is "So degrading". Well SHIT; glad to know what I plan on doing for a living matters to those who NEED IT! She's "an actress" and was miffed that she wasn't in the show, hence the degredation of working on a set of something she hadn't gotten into. Well, Little Miss Actress, if you want to live to see twenty-five without having a lighting tree fall on you, I'd seriously consider gaining a lot of respect for techs in a hurry. *eyeroll* I'm really seeing the credibility in the perma-grouch mode most tech directors seem stuck in. I dont need any foot-kissing here, just realization that if sets and lights and sound and run-crew were left up to straight-up actors... yeah. No.
... That little blurb brought to you by five weeks of listening to little "actors" in my Intro to MPRA class bitch and whine about working scene shop (but none of them even GO! ...Whats the damn point?). Not like I always wanna wake up early and inhale sawdust and sealant fumes for three hours before SNDS. Oh I give up.
In other news, with less whining. Halloween weekend is NEXT weekend!! Huzzah!!
I need to get lots of chains and a cool hat. Maybe some uberslutty clothes...
