Breakaway moment

This weekend I went to Leicester to stay with my brother and his lovely mrs. :) My parentals were there too and it was so nice to have a break from the norm. Listened to music with my bro, met a load of their friends, ate lots of yummy home cooked food and went to see fireworks and had lots of bonfire toffee. All together a briliant weekend :) didn't really want to come back to the real world but tis all good. hope everyone else had fun celebrating bonfire night!

The life of an actor ;-)

I'm sat on my bed stuffing my face with chocolate and sipping on a mugful of milk after having done the final of our 3 performances of Macbeth today....I'm knackered....and in an hour or so i'll be out on the town celebrating the end of the run. Such is the life of the actor. Although having said that for the life of a true actor probably replace the chocolate with celery and houmous (I do like these things but sometimes you just need a chocolate hit...) and the milk with wine. ;-P lol.
So how's it been this week? Well - I've gotta say I've really enjoyed it :) Totally. even the high schools which I was apprehensive about. The workshops were really enjoyable and we were pretty fortunate with the kids we got - sure, some were restless, some uninterested. But the behaviour was so much better than I expected from remembering my high school days, and the amount of interested kids far out weighed any down points. And of course I totally loved going to the primary school - I love working with this age kids and today wasn't a let down at all. :) Right now though I'm so tired and really just wanna sleep for a few hours before I go anywhere but ah well...



Also, I am a little bit sad that it is bonfire night and I'm not doing anything bonfire related - although our director did bring in some bonfire toffee today :) - because I totally love bonfire night.... there's something about it - well lots of things about it - I just totally love. Often we have a big bonfire at home home. But not this year. ah well. Maybe find something this weekend.

um think I may have reached the level of too much chocolate now :S lol

Sushi, ghosts and a little blue bird

This coming week we are performing our version of Macbeth to schools -by the way, don't know if i've mentioned but if you're interested to know we are being directed by the artistic director from Jump the Moat theatre company. This weekend is therefore final prep (although my group has a bit more time to rehearse on Monday) and finding time also to relax a bit :) This evening I made sushi with my flat mate for tea and later on we all watched 'Ghost Ship' and ate many treats :) Also went shopping today and got a gorgeous necklace from accesorise -it's a little blue bird in a little cage on a long chain and it's so pretty I can't wait to wear it :) Anyway now I must get some beauty sleep!

...ZZZzz...
