well, i have told my students that i am leaving at the end of the year. we had a big meeting. it was cathartic-- both sad and joyful. there was an outpouring of love, which i felt privileged and comforted and energized to receive. i feel sad about not being there for many of the students next year, but they were 100% supportive of my moving on.
it has been a huge couple of months-- i took six students to the harvard speech tournament (we won 8th place in duo interpretation), i went to minneapolis, i took a group to the state speech tournament (we won first place sweepstakes), competed in our zone one-act play contest (we advanced to the district level), and this past weekend i went to dallas for my nephew's wedding.
now it is spring break and i am:
relaxing
cleaning the house
doing laundry
learning my lines for the upcoming LINCOLNESQUE (opens the second weekend in may)
helping one of my students with a film he's shooting
spending quality time with friends (esp. fran and zoe)
by the way, i have finally updated the drawings blog. the drawing called "supine" had been the last one posted for way too long, but was also somehow appropriate, since the blog was a little bit asleep for a while. visit!
