First and foremost, there's a new picture on the photoblog. A nice portrait shot of one of the VQ cuties.

Moving on, I have created my first theorem of my college career. Through it, Croom's constant is derived. Of course theorems don't make constants, but it sounded cool.

Various Things

10/22/08 | by Charlie [mail] | Categories: College, Improv Comedy, Theater, Classes

Really a variety of things going on this week in my life:

  1. Mid-terms are finally over, and I believe that I am going to pass all my classes which is fantastic.
  2. I am going to be Assistant Master Electrician on The Full Monty production here (Dramat fall mainstage)
  3. I somehow ended up being the Lighting Designer for a spring production of Equus in OBT...more on that later
  4. We have another Improv show this Friday...first on campus show. So hope that goes well!
  5. And of course, with Parents Weekend coming, this weekend will be very busy! (Football pictures soon!!!!)
  6. Speaking of pictures, buzz about Darq Knight is finally making it's way around the web. See my last post for more
  7. Finally, there is a new HDR picture up on my photoblog, I forgot to check settings before I shot, so not perfect but hope you like it nonetheless...10 pictures total so far!

As far as Equus goes, I don't actually know what the play is about other than Horse Gods...weird. But it's in the OBT which is the smallest legitimate theater, so I am hoping that I'll be able to handle it. Nervous and excited for all of this!
