Last Week

It's the last week of my time in NY. Sad. But I've been busy, so it's been good.
Monday, I went to Pilobolus. It was awesome. They are so good. It's amazing how they throw themselves around and do crazy jumps and flips and partnering stuff. A lot of it wasn't what most people would call "dance," but it all fit into this big picture that was a really good piece. A lot of it was really funny, and the girl sitting in front of me for some reason thought that it was rude to laugh or she didn't like my laugh or something, cause every time I laughed she would turn around and look at me like I had just smacked her upside the head with no warning. Whatever, I still enjoyed myself.
Tuesday, 2 girls and I went to a Yankees game. Here is my now-traditional (2 years in a row makes a tradition, I've decided) picture of my foot at Yankee stadium.

The Yankees won, my friends really had a good time, we danced at all the songs and did the wave and clapped along with the out-of-sync clapping hands on the scoreboard. There was a home run in the 2nd inning, and from where we were sitting we could see the full arc of the ball (way cool). A great night.

Wednesday, I did nothing. But that was good, I needed some rest, I haven't been sleeping well cuase it's so darn hot.

Thursday, my friend and her sister and I stood in line for 2 hours to see if we could get Lion King tickets. We were 8, 9, and 10 in line, and there were enough cancellation tickets for 7 people. So we didn't see the show, but we had a good time eating McDonald's on the sidewalk on 42nd St. It cooled off that day, so it was actually very enjoyable to be outside.

Today was the last day of class. It went alright. The piece we did this week was really crazy, and my back hurts really bad, as do many odd muscles throughout my body, like my left rhomboids, my right adductors, and my right anterior tibialis (get out your anatomy texts, everyone). The muscles that run around the right side of my waist really hurt, too, which is a very odd experience I've not had before. But the showing went off alright, and though I never saw Paul Taylor in person I really learned a lot this month. Plus, losing some weight and gaining some muscle back was nothing to be upset about.

Tonight, I'm taking all night to pack so that I'll be really tired for my 18 hour train ride tomorrow night. Pray I have enough to read...
