Home finally!
i'm home for 2 weeks, yeaaaaaaa! back home in the Chi...so what am i going to do? i have no idea...i guess hang with my family...go to work out with my mama because she got me a 2 week pass for Bally's.....i got my grades...this has got to be one of my best semesters ever...i only got 1 C! i know some of ya'll might be thinking "damn 1 C? she get C's all the time?" Heck yea i do! i'm SUCH a procrastinator...i know if i apply my self more i could get all A's...but thats with anyone...i guess i'm just lazy sometimes...so yea, my GPA is under a 3.0, yea that's bad....but i dont care...just one more semester! i'll have to fix that GPA when i, and before i got o grad school...if i go to Grad school....i know i will though, i might just have to do ALOT of work and get stuff waived or whatever.....but i was mad at that C when usually i am just fine with it...well not just fine with a C...but when i know that i didnt do so hot in a class, i'm glad to at least pull a C out of it so i dont have to take it over again......and alot of times, and the reason why my GPA is below a 3.0 was because of me being on prohbation which is what i use to write about when if irst started blogging and me being depressed, so when i first came down here, i didnt really care about class....God IS the only reason i'm still in school because i know i shouldve been kicked out.......i know i need to aim for A's all the time...but *shrugs*...but anyways, i got A's in my practicum class where i had to run the light board....i got an A in my speech class: communication across cultures....i got B's in my stage make up class, my music voice class, and my african and african-american theater class where the teacher was an a-hole and scheduled our final for a sunday...i got a C in my playwriting class....my full-length playwriting class....i couldve gotten an A but i was lazy...i missed and assignment, and i missed 2 more assignments that he added to the syllabus in the middle of the semester...also my final play, i only got 41 pages into him instead of i guess 60 pages, d amn it's hard to type more than 30 pages!!!!!!!!...or maybe the 40 pages was 80mins worth of acting, but my play just wasnt good...who knows...i know that's not going to look good when i'm trying to apply to grad schools to get into their playwriting program, but i have hope that i can, faith that i can do it....if my work is good, most of the time, with creative type of stuff like theater and creative writing, they dont look at your GPA....it's sad that i would have to go that route though...but this semester was rough....and all of my other plays i got A's on...so i think i'm aight at writing...i'm taking a english class in the fall to help me with my grammar.....and 2 of the ministers at church asked me to write plays...a 15-20 min skit for womens day in Sept. and a christmas play that's about 60 minutes for Christmas time....and i need to write on my own...i'm stage managing a play at this community theater in the fall....i'm pretty mucht he only black face there, with the exceptiuon of this bi-racial boy...all of the actors are under 19...well the main acter is 19, and the next age is like 16...i thinkt he youngest actor is like 8...and it's about 20 kids! ugh...i hope they dont think i'm Nell Carter or something and this is gimme a break....lol...i will not be a mammy! but anyways, that was dumb, i know.....so i got to stage manage lil kids...wow....well maybe they'll listen better than some of these grown folks....but this is some experience i can get outside of the classroom...i'm not getting paid, and i'm not getting class credit because i really dont need it since i only need that directing class int he fall to graduate....this should be fun...the play, i'm not sure what it's all about, but it's called "Honk!"...and it's about a ugly duck and alot of other farm animals...and it's a musical.....wow....but anyways...i have a few play ideas in my head that i need to write down and start writing...i'm also thinking of taking some business classes after i fiish up in the fall, or education classes to get certified to teach.....i think i'd be a good teacher...i care too much and kids like me....also well with taking the business classes, i would want to because i really want to start a black theater....there's only like 2 BIG black theaters, or LORT theaters (big theaters, like the Goodman theater), left in the country....i want to start one...back in the seventies there was like 25....black folks dont like to do theater that much anymore it seems...or we're just not getting funding like the other theaters that claim that they're "diverse"...anyways, lemme do this 10 things since G.
