Today will be the last day I am able to just sit and rest. Tomorrow is Dancers' Company to Tuacahn, then the film shooting for Diantha begins on Monday. I'm excited to have things to do so I'm not just wasting away in my apartment, but it will be busy. I am working for 12 hours tomorrow, then it will be 12hr days for Diantha. When the filming ends, I'll have two weeks before leaving for China. It's exciting! I'm already gathering everything I need for tour.
Besides reading and watching movies with Andrea, I have been learning how to do my hair. I really use to hate bothering. It's a waste of time because whenever I bother to do anything with my hair and makeup, there is no one to see it (except my roommates of course). But, I do feel more confident. I'm coming to the idea of actually trying to do my hair while on tour. I'm so use to pulling it in a bun or letting a dancer do my hair. Now, I think I could handle blow drying it straight or even spending the time to curl it. With practice, it doesn't take too long. Of course, I am using up all my hairspray, but it's worth it.
From September 2009 to March 2011, I will be posting to my other blog. For those who want to follow my mission experiences in Florida Fort Lauderdale, please go to:

Stagehands have astonishing learning curves. It's not unusual for stage crews to have trucks full of unknown scenery arrive at a theatre on Monday, which we need to assemble and understand to open a show we've never seen before... on Tuesday night.
Most people, if confronted with such a task, would flatly say it was impossible.
Stagehands find ways to make it possible. We learn quickly, we draw upon years of experience, skills and training, and (all too often) we drink lots of coffee and work all night.
I've had one longstanding handicap in my career as a stagehand. I don't drink coffee.
