George Fox

I like it. A lot.

Pictures of Recent Happenings

 Apparently to multiple colleges.

 November Calendar!

 At my first Potter Hall meeting we made hand turkeys. I made the mistake of thinking that all the markers were washable... But the brown was not. So for a couple days my hand was outlined in brown. My Senegalese French Teacher thought that it was a tattoo...

 Picture from my bike ride route.

 And another.

 And another.

 Car in Sharis parking lot. 

 Turkey i drew at thanksgiving in a rock garden sand box thing.

 One of these fish is not like the other. Though now my tank has lots of orange colored fish. 8 are in there. I predict like 5 by the end of the week... :-/ Petco giftcards always nice. 

Apple or Pear?

These were just some pictures that i had been meaning to post. But hadn't... Today was kinda weird. I woke up feeling awake. Which was really weird. Then, i went to class and stuff. And everything was kinda normal. But at work we hung lights. And it was sorta like we each did a section thing. So it was kinda quiet but nice. Then i went to dinner. And then went shopping. I went to JC Penny first. I found a couple presents for Megan. Saved A CRAP TON OF MONEY! Holy cow. With what i bought i saved $108 and spent $60. Totally worth it. It was awesome. I might go back... FOr me... They had a necklace that i really like. I'd seen it on other people and liked it. So now i want it. It looks like this:

I think i'll get it as a gift to myself. Maybe for getting through the week... Yep. Then i went to Pier One imports which is an AWESOME store. It was cool I like their stuff. I can't wait until i have money and a house to decorate. It will be awesome. And i got a gift for my mom. And if she doesn't like it I will take it. And then i spent a really long time at Petco because i got really distracted by all the fish. Big fish scare me... If it is bigger than my thumb it is scary. Aw CRAP. I forgot to get a toothbrush. I left mine at home and was supposed to get one today. Ugh.

Pizza

I made pizza. And i got a large because i wanted to eat it all week. So yeah. But i had no pot holders to take the pizza out... SO i used socks. Which was scary. But it worked. And i didn't have a pizza cutter so i used a knife. And i didn't have any foil. So i used the syrand wrap that came on the pizza... SO pretty much all i had was the oven... Because i had to go get the pizza. Sooo yeah. I'm in college.

I had a rough day. We went to the Transyberian orchestra. It was okay. Not what i remembered. Pretty lame lights i thought... And it was really long. And lots of people...

I think i'm becoming more OCD. Like. My room is really clean almost all the time. And not correct things bug me. And yeah. Maybe perfectionist. But i thought of this because i got really clausterphobic while we were waiting in line to go in. I really am a space person. I need space. And i hate malls because of all the people. I get freaked. Something about too many different people that i don;t know their motives. Freaks me out. I guess i'm just a small town girl.

I feel bad for my cousin. Him and his longtime girlfriend just split. And i feel really bad. I feel like now everyone's falling apart... But i hope he know that i love him. :-)

I didn't beat all of Kingdom Hearts this week like i wanted. I got to the last level though... Guess i'll have to go to spencers sometime.

Hello,

    My name is Kacy Helwig and I am a freshman currently at Linfield College. I don't know if you remember but you judged my Lighting Design at the Oregon State Thespian Conference two years ago when I designed for Children of Eden by Stephen Schwartz. I graduated last year from St.Helens High School and decided to go to Linfield for a major in Theatre, and while I have enjoyed the department at this school I have found it very difficult to want to stay here for the remainder of the year. While my work study job of being a lighting assistant has been both fun and an eye opening experience, the social community of Linfield and requirements of the degree have left me unfulfilled.

    I am looking at transferring to a different college in the winter that would be able to provide me with more of a design or technology base and somewhere where I would not need to participate in acting. I would someday like to be a lighting designer perhaps for something as great as Disney but do not have a passion or much interest in acting, which would be required for the degree offered at Linfield. I was wondering what advice you could give me about colleges that would be able to provide me with both hands on experience in working on lights and on designing shows. I have strongly been considering going to George Fox as I think that this program could offer many things and that I could learn a lot from you.

    I was wondering what kind of classes you offer for theatre design majors and what opportunities you could be able to offer as well as any suggestions that you have for me or other information about George Fox and its' theatre program. I would love to hear your thoughts and what type of program you offer or even to meet with you to discuss the opportunities you have to offer and the requirements for a major.

I would great appreciate to hear back from you! Thank you for your time.

Thanksgiving Break

I'm making Applesauce bars which i like. They ae like cake but healthier because its applesauce. But they are good. I'm home now.

I'm getting really sick of the limited Christmas commercials that are on tv. I hope more come out this week. Getting a little sick of Wal-Mart Layaway and Grandma got ran over by a reindeer...

I wish it was Christmas time. I hope that will make me happier because it's a different mood. So yeah.

Jillion Degrees

My room is literally a jillion degrees. My heater like went crazy and not its HOOOOOTTTTT in here. I couldn't get it to turn off. So i'm like sweating my ass off in shorts and a tank. I opened my closet which is always cold so now it will hopefully cool down a bit. But i got it off.

I finished my drafting Project thats due Friday on accident today. I had been staying after class just so that it was convienient to get lunch with Sami (I know but HA!) afterwards at 11:55. But today i was just workin on and in the zone and then was like wait. I just finished this... So then i was like wait can i turn it in so i can sleep in on Friday? Yep. So then at work i was like hey Rob can i take friday off? Yep. BAM. Done. Break will now start at 2:50 tomorrow. Which is awesome. But i'm staying here on Friday so that i can take Sami to the station on Friday. So now i can just go home that way. Which is cool. But i'm glad to be done soon. This has been a really tough week for me.

Its hot.
