New York City in the summer

Yes, that is correct. I am back in the city. Yay! So... I am currently working on the NYU Steinhardt production of "The Fix" which is a politically based rock musical. So far I'm loving it. I'm just an Assistant Stage Manager but it is better that other jobs I've had in the past. Hell. It's better than the job I have now. I still work at the Silver School of Social Work and on my first day back my boss had me write a project report for her that ended up being 18 pages and took me 5 hours to create. And then another to hours to cut this down to 13.5 pages. So that is my lovely job as of late.

This Year I get to live in Chinatown which is fun. ... Not really. I have a 22 minute walk to campus and I know that will be hell when it starts to snow. Luckily I can make 22 into 16, I'm a fast walker. And my mother is still running for city commision and teaching music at a high school in Ponte Vedra (Although she is short on intstruments and pianos and books and chairs, etc.), my dad is working full time as a teacher and part time as a private instructor, my older brother is finishing up his last semester in college, and my younger brother is on the start of his senior year. The fun part about that is that I get to help him with all his college applications. Yay again!

Well, I had planned out like 20 posts while I was at home and never actually got to typing them up so I'll have to catch up at some point but I just wanted to make sure that everyone knew I was still trying to keep this alive. Hope everyone's summers were fantastic and I'll be seeing you all soon I'm sure. Good night!
