A photo copy machine named Nicholas

This week marked my first week of work...ever! My job is actually pretty sweet. I intern at a musical theatre camp at a studio in town. I only get paid if I stay for aftercare but during the day unless I have work I'm pretty much taking classes for free. Most of my duties concern lunch time supervision, but I also do things like running activities and making photo copies. An explanation of the title: Ariel, a fellow intern, and I were making photo copies, we quickly became bored so we decided to name the copier Nicholas. He's our friend. One highlight of the week was explaining Anorexia to a 4th grader. Yes, love those kids. Friday is the camp performance so I'll be dancing with 4 year olds, but also singing a solo that I've been working on. The family who owns the studio and everyone who works there are super nice and the internship is a great opportunity to get work experience. Tuesday I had a super hard work out. I had to do 25 sets of stairs and it was timed so I was sprinting up and down those stupid stairs giving myself an asthma attack...fun, thanks Johnny. It's okay because at Thursday's work out Johnny was punched in the face by Sara! They had a long standing agreement that when Sara lost 100 lbs. she could punch him in the face. Well she did (I'm so, so, so, proud!) and she didn't hit him hard but that was okay it was still amusing. Wednesday I got a pedicure and Japanese food with Nicole! It was pretty fun. I ended up with blue toenails and a happy tummy. I watched so many movies this weekend :D Friday, I finished watching (500) Days of Summer with Sonya and Victor. I don't know how I can love a movie so much but also hate the ending so much! Saturday I hipstered out and watched Zooey Deschanel Indie flicks (and now I'm blogging about it even more cred). The first one was called The Good Girl. The main character was played by Jennifer Aniston. It's a really emotional movie at one point I had no clue what outcome I wanted for the characters I just wanted things to be better for the characters. Then I made it a double feature and watched All the Real Girls this one starred Ms. Deschanel. Can I take a moment to talk about how much I love her? Total girl crush. No shame. I think I want to get bangs like hers. She was really good in this movie! I also really liked the style of the film. The endings kind of ambiguous, I was left assuming what the character was going to do and hoping I understood him well enough. Then today I watched The Adjustment Bureau. Really a fantastic film. Great performance by Matt Damon! Emily Blunt was good...but she's Michael Buble's ex so I can never really like her. BTW HAPPY Birthday AMERICA! My plans involve cooking for the party at my house :) 1st real week of Summer and so far so good!
