Within Sight

I'm finally done with classes for the Thanksgiving holiday! Such a small and insignificant end, since we'll be resuming on Monday, but it feels so releiving. The air is so crisp and cold outside and there's something festive about the remaining students on campus. It's as if everyone has let out a huge sigh of relief and are all buzzing with excitment about going home. I will be staying in D.C. over break, or the surrounding area at least. My family will be coming up tomorrow morning to spend the holiday with me and some relatives in Fredericksburg, VA. I'll use the time to catch up on lost sleep and get back to a normal life having just finished my second off-center. I'll be seeing Corteo again on Thanksgiving Thursday with my mom at four. What a great thing to do on Thanksgiving. It's such a festive show anyway, it will mix well with the attitudes in D.C. at the time, I'm sure. It will be my mom's first experience with the Cirque on any significant level and I'm looking forward to sharing that. We'll also go shopping while they're up here and I look forward to eating a lot of good food!

Tomorrow I have to wake up early and come to campus to turn in some reports then I'll begin cleaning my apartment and making it look nice. During the run of a show things get all out of whack and I made such a mess of my place. So tomorrow I'll rid my room of the bad ch'i buildup and be productive. I also have to come back to campus for my advising appointment at 2, but that should only last 30 minutes or so. Hopefully no longer since I pretty much have my schedule laid out for next semester - or at least an idea of it... Today I'm seeing a reading of Reckless at 4 and then I'll head home. I think I'll make green curry chicken again and do some writing for my Theatre Performance class. Who knows? I'm just glad to not have homework to worry about for a few days.
