. . . not with one person, but with my entire dorm. :) We had a Talent Night Show tonight, and I was just blown away by all the different acts: a comedy "blues" act with guitar and trumpet, an avant-garde piece (nothing happened), readings of stories, guitar/singing, Latin-Israeli dance, funnyman/straightman acts, lip-syncs to "Goldfinger," Aretha Franklin and the Backstreet Boys . . . these kids were really great. I had so much fun watching them.
Living here has really brought to life a range of emotions that I never would've felt had I continued to live off-campus in a tiny apt the landlords of Ithaca keep around for impoverished graduate students. It really is a kind of falling in love; messiness and all. :)
what act did you perform? :)
ReplyDeletenice one with the avant-garde (and nothing happening). must've been profound ;>)
hah . . . i was the clapper and laff-er. i am a very good member of the audience. they had me laughing so hard i had to wipe tears away from my eyes.
ReplyDeletethe avant-garde piece was actually also a comedy act, so they got a few chuckles, but it was really literally about nothing. nothing really happened!
AWww... must be kinda like being a mom... all your little chickadees are so grown up! You must be so proud : )
