Posted: 6/19/07 at 10:06ami'm going! i'm competing in 'solo acting'. i'm not doing anything else, so i'll probably do a lot of workshops and look at a school or two. there's only one there that i would want to attend, though.

Posted: 6/20/07 at 10:30pmI'm going mainly to audition for colleges. I registered too late to sign up for a Hairspray audition, but I think I'll go by the audition early and see if they can squeeze me in somewhere.

Posted: 6/20/07 at 11:00pmwhat schools are y'all auditioning for? i'm pissed, it turns out my grades were good enough to audition, but our school never tells us our gpas and i was really unsure. but, i'm hoping maybe i can at least network with a few schools. oh, and what i.e.s are you guys doing?

Posted: 6/21/07 at 2:37pmWell, I know that I had signed up to do college audits, but there was some form I didn't know about. So since they didn't have one little peice of paper on time, I can't do it. Im gonna try and network schools too though. Bring your headshot and resmue to give them!
