Jellicle dogs!

Ah well - I suppose Carousel is a no go - that's hard to type - but I didn't get a phone call today either.  Sniffle.  They must have been looking for one of the whispy girls.

However - I did go to CATS and got called back to dance - which made me laugh - 

TOmorrow I get to be a punk dancer and dance for the Green Day musical!  And help rienking move! And film Amanda's audition video! BLAAAAAAAAAAAAH!  Its dizzying - but its nice to be productive.  And my planner is CERTAINLY getting a workout!

German roommate brought NINE PInTS OF ICE CREAM - a PIE - and an economy sized box of candy bars!  GAAAAAAH!  Its also funny because he says "w" instead of a "v" sound - so he talks about Buffy the wampire slayer - or the musical dance of the wampires.  I miss being able to hibernate alone - but I think he'll be ok to co-habitate with.  I hope so.

I also had lunch with my friend Alena - who is SUPER SUPER cool. She spent a year in Korea teaching children English through theatre.  It was really great hearing about her adventures, everything she learned, and her perceptions of Korean culture.  Especially intriguing was the fact that American humour does not carry over in Korea - so English teachers get paid to watch the Simpsons with Korean students and explain why it is funny.  Additionally, due to political events in Korea during the 1950s, they don't understand the concept of 1950s rock'n'roll or poodle skirts.  However, the Korean govt. pays for educational theme parks!  Why don't we have educational theme parks.  (epecot and seaworld don't count!)  These are special theme parks with the sole purpose of teaching English and foreign culture to the students.  Incredible.  

I'm off to bed - big day of moving and being a fierce punk rocker!!!!!
