a blog...: If Every Day Could Be Like Today...

...i would be a very happy girl. This morning started with the Matinee of the Opera- which is this family friendly performance where the Director explains what Opera is to little kids. It was so cute and amazing! I did my old age makeup and then helped with the main guys, i love love love all of my opera casts!

When i first started doing makeup for the Opera students it was pretty hard because we weren't communicating very well. Once i started joking around with them and praising them when they did their shadows correctly we started to become friends. All of my Chorus Men and i are tight, they are seriously my favourite. The Chorus girls and i bonded over boys. One time i was standing behind them looking at their shadows and highlights and one girl starts talking about this guy so i sit down and start listenign and then they all turn to me and are like "OK, now you tell us your boy problems!!!" "Welllllll......" And we just talked about boys hahaha they know my life now. It was such a fantastic moment, and i love those girls to death. The main boys and i struggled at first because we are all so stubborn, but now we are tight. Mas comes to me to do his shadows and we talk about the most random things, Russ and i bonded over Memes, and Jubal and i just mock each other mercilessly. The main girls- words cannot describe how beautiful and kind these women are. So patient and always happy to see me! We've become a weird family of sorts and i honestly love every minute of it and the time passes so quickly.

One of the girls who helps with costuming asked me to do her makeup because she had an audition later that day. She was fascinated by what i was doing and i made another friend :)

Then i came home and chilled with Charls until we decided to go shopping. I discovered this supermarket called Sprouts...formerly known as Sunflower market. IT'S FANTASTIC AND I'VE NEVER BEEN SO EXCITED ABOUT A DISCOVERY IN MY LIFE. Organic awesomeness, vitamins that i've been learning about in my plant class, kefir, kumbacha, gluten free food, homemade bread, sunflowers, and beautifulness that is YERBA mate in a can. It's my kind of store. I just felt automatically at home and at peace when i walked in that store, it was super weird.

WE ALSO WENT TO LUNCH WITH ZACH! He's going on a mission soon- i will miss him :(

Then the opera again which meant more makeup! It also meant a super deep conversation about marriage with one of my co-makeup artists. Over all- it made me not scared about marriage at all (She's married) and got me really excited about the future and craziness. We also talked about our lives and again, i made a friend.

Mate. Mate all night long, i drank so many cups of it. I drink it with cold lemonade- crystal light. I found out that a bunch of my Chorus Men had served missions where their people drank Mate. Matt and i drank it all night....at the end i got super super hyper. Like...honestly only a handful of people have ever seen me in that state...it's bad, but hilarious.

Also Michael did my hair- he is one of my chorus men- and from England. He knows how to do hair better than i do....he also scared me tonight when i was walking home from the hammocks, he was in his car in the Brownstone parking lot and yelled my name and i screamed then Charls started screaming. Love that man.

Tease ALL the hairs
