And so it begins.

....wow.
So I've just completed my first week of school and I am beat.
I can tell it's going to be one of THOSE semesters if you know what I mean. Yeah. Those semesters where I will no doubt blog something like "I'm so overwhelmed!" at some point. But it happens.
I think I'm just really tired because of Spelling Bee rehearsals mainly, so when that's over with I'm sure it will be a little bit better...
Speaking of, I'm really enjoying getting to know the show, we've finally blocked the whole thing and it feels pretty good. I'm loving my part and really sinking my teeth into the whole thing. It's tiresome for my voice, however. It's a vocally demanding show, especially for me as I'm blowing out high G's and A's all over the place, but as long as I take care of myself I will be fine! It just means no going to places where people are smoking heavily, and just staying hydrated and healthy.

Speaking of being healthy, I've been going to the gym almost everyday and I am already starting to see some results! I feel so much better, and you will never believe that I am waking up at like 6:45 some days to go before class, but I am, and I have already lost a few pounds in a week or so. I'm not really out on this mission to lose all this weight, but I know that I have put on some extra weight this summer especially, and it's just like "soft around the edges" weight, nothing really substantial. I just want to be really toned mainly and get my body in gear for whenever I graduate! Seeing as I have this membership for the year that I am paying for, it will really motivate me to continue to go which is nice, and I can also go to all the gyms in the area which is super convenient once my schedule allows for me to take some more classes!
I just want to be in the best shape of my life when I graduate! It helps that school starts when it comes to eating right too, because I just pack all my food for the whole day basically. And when I only pack healthy things, that's what I eat! Also, if I'm in a real bind, the Market on broadway now has all these yummy healthy things like Amy's organic meals and tons of new healthy stuff that I can eat! :) It makes me very happy to see that.

But anyways, I'm excited for what the semester has in store. I'm still waiting to hear back from the Springer regarding HSM casting, but as far as I know they are still in the process, so who knows. If that doesn't work out, it's just opening a way for something else to work out so I'm not that worried.

I'm just staying positive in general and trying to make it through this last year until I finally get to really live my life! Can't wait! :)
