There's a First Time for Everything

Well, life's experts say that there's a first time for everything, so here I am on the first day of a new semester and writing my first blog entry. This is a wonderful way, suggested by the wonderful Shakespearean actress and professor, Melinda Pfundstein Vaughn, to keep track of my experience for the future reference of myself and others.

A small intro to myself, I am currently a Sophomore at Southern Utah University and hope to pursue a career in costume design and construction and a minor in creative writing. As such, I hope to provide you with a well written, thoughtful, and entertaining perspective on the events I experience here at SUU.

My Experiences from the 2014 fall and 2015 spring semesters last year include being a part of the wardrobe crew on Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream, themed in the Wild West, four corners area, and Joseph Stein's Fiddler on the Roof. The quick changes I helped out with included: Helena going from Desert stained rags to her wedding finery,an interesting change to be sure, and changing a villager of Anatevka from a normal wedding guest into a bottle dancer, and then to a woebegone refugee of the same village. Those changes didn't have quite the amount of frantic energy as Midsummer, but were important all the same.

So here's to new beginnings and a successful semester to everyone!
