Thirteen Things about LINDSEY
1. Alright, so, what has been up in my life since my last good update? First I had finals . . . which were a mess. I had a ton of work to do at the end there, and I would up getting a really bad sinus infection that lasted for almost a month. Getting my work done was a NIGHTMARE. But it happened. Phew!
2. Then we immediately left for Living Parables tour. It was great except that I was sick the whole time and spent almost 2 whole days in the bed . . . sigh. But we got some good performances in, and a neat service project. Not bad for my last things with the troupe. And on the last night all the underclassmen talked about the seniors and the seniors talked about each other, and we were a mess. Correction: I was a mess. Crying everywhere. Which is pathetic, because all four of the seniors are going to be in Winston-Salem next year, so it’s not like we’re going anywhere . . .
3. Then I graduated. Which was good, haha! We had a great graduation party the day before - kind of a cookout with our families. And Daddy got a new camera before graduation, so I have lots of great pictures of everyone in caps and gowns! And a bunch of family came up to see the graduation, so it was a really great weekend.
4. The week after graduation I stayed at school and packed things up and finished my GRE course. Then on Monday I went and took the GRE, completing #19 on my 101 in 1001. I was so nervous, because the admissions committee from the grad program I applied to was waiting on the scores to make a decision, and that’s a lot to ride on a test that’s on stuff I haven’t done since high school. However, I did really well, much better than I had expected (Verbal: 580, Math: 740). So, hopefully that’s good enough to get me in!
5. In the middle of all of this I took care of wrapping up all the Parables stuff that I needed to get fixed up for the future generations. We got all the reimbursment stuff worked out (#22), I delegated someone to get the new constitution approved since they never got back to me (#24), and I got all the coordinating director stuff pulled together and passed it along (#26)!
6. I also sorted through all of my clothing at school (you know, actually trying things on to make sure they fit or not), and I got rid of a ton of stuff, definitely at least 70 things, which completes #57. And I didn’t give it to Goodwill, I’m giving it to our housekeeper. Her house burned down, and she and her husband (the other housekeeper) are having to start from scratch, and they have a baby . . . it’s a tough situation. So, I’m considering #60 to be complete, even though it’s not going to Goodwill. To me, this is more important anyway.
7. I came back home to Florida on Friday, and on Sunday was my brother’s graduation party. It’s so wierd that my little brother is graduating high school! It’s even wierder that at his party I didn’t know hardly any of the kids (keep in mind, we went to the same high school) . . . they’re just all that young. And I wasn’t at the party as a guest - I was there as an adult chaperone. It felt odd. But it went really well, so 2 points for Bo!
8. And there was the big computer crash, which is all better now. I’ve been playing catch-up ever since. I’ve had a ton of stuff to do online (my website, email correspondence, etc.) that I’ve been neglecting because of, well, all the things you just read. Anyways, I’ve been frantically working to get everything back up to speed, and I’ve still got a lot ahead of me, but I’ve done a significant chunk of it tonight.
9. The new MagicMouth Productions website is up, and I must say, it looks STUNNING. It was designed by a company called MindSmack, and they’ve done a terrific job with it. We are really pleased with how it turned out, so go check it out!
10. Also in MagicMouth news, there is an article about us in the June 2006 issue of Entrepreneur Magazine!!!! Here’s the link, but you should really check out the paper copy if you get a chance - there’s a great photo in the magazine that’s not online. June issue, page 150 ;)!
11. And our DVD is supposed to come out this week. Ben went to Charlotte to review the final copy today, but I haven’t talked to him yet to see how it went. More news on that later!
12. My 22nd birthday is coming up soon (June 7), and I’m super psyched because I get to go up north for it, including being in New York City on my birthday. We’ve got a crazy busy week planned for that, so I will fill in the details later.
13. And a quiz to round things up!
