what a week! - 2007/04/03 03:41
oh man, what a week, and its only Tuesday!! (and just barely tuesday since its 3:33am)
on sunday i finished a 2week run of Annie
on monday i started rehearsals for Plaza Suite
but the best part of monday was getting my acceptance from Randolph Academy for the Performing Arts!!!
its a private college in Toronto, right in Mirvish Village actually, that is completly about triplethreat training (and no, i dont mean they train people to try and overthrow Kris -as if anyone could! )
im incredibly excited about this news since its the first acceptance ive gotten this year, and hopefully i wont have to turn everywhere down like last year bc im broke **keeping my fingers crossed for OSAP and student loans**
but of course, once i told my mother of my acceptance all she said was "and just where are you planning on getting $50,000 from?" yup, thanks for your congratulatory words mother, i love you too
but thats okay!!! somehow ill scrape up the cash, even if i have to put myself into crazy debt to do it, this place is amazing!!
its a completly bohemian setting and its backed by the Mirvish company so when they cast they often cast right out of the school!!! its such a great oppourtunity and such a great stepping stone, i really hope i end up there in september!!
Nikki!!
currently rehearsing: Lady Viola/Cesario (Twelfth Night), Joan of Arc (a raisin in the sun) |
...again, speaking from experience. another thing you can do is try to find a compy to work for that will pay back a portion of tuition. like right now i work for a company that will reimburse up to $5000 of tuition a year...if you can get a job for a cmpany like that, that will help out a whole freakin lot. also go on the internet and apply for EVERY scholarship you can find. no matter how odd the requirements are...its a fast way to build up some $$$
