• Pleasant Surprises

  The event that I was toiling away on for most of the school year took place last night, and it went absolutely well. I’m so surprised, since during sound check, everything seemed to be falling apart. I got into a fight with my VP and good friend. The performances weren’t going as planned. I just felt so nervous about the whole thing pulling through, but it went amazing. The audience’s reception to everything–the food, the performances, my MC’ing–was so great. I’m still on a high from last night. It was a pleasant surprise how well it went and even more so that a good friend of mine came up from Virginia to attend. It’s the last time he’s probably coming to the city, so I was more than happy to see him.

  The best part was that people came up to me afterwards congratulating me on such a successful event, that this was probably the best cultural show they’ve ever been to, and that they can’t wait to get more involved in VSA. It just feels so great to know all my hard work really accomplished exactly what I wanted.

  And of course, what better way to celebrate other than with friends, liquor, and junk food?

  

  

  I’ll probably post a photo reel of the actual event later when all the pictures get on Facebook.
