Charlie's Thoughts

Well it's been awhile (2 weeks) since I gave a good update on my life. It's been nice to get back to school after Spring Break, although the first week back was a LOT of work. Things seemed to have settled into their normal rhythm now.

Romance is coming along well. I went to another rehearsal today to check it out and was very impressed! On a related note, I recently added ticketing to the YDC site. Meaning you can now get tickets for Yale shows at http://www.yaledramacoalition.org/reserve

Of course if you just want to read about our show you can do http://www.yaledramacoalition.org/romance. For those of you smart ones, /reserve/romance also work I picked up a new skill as evidence by my last post. Now I can do cool links for websites. Meaning that although those links I gave you work, the page your actually viewing is view_show.php?show_id=31 or something messy. That's called mod_rewrite, and I talked about my fun with it in the last post.

Theater aside, I've been busy doing some photos as well. I have officially photographed the NCAA Hockey Tournament (although we lost), in addition, my editors have been giving me some more chances to play around with flashes. This photo: (http://yaledailynews.com/photos/view/12768) was today's Scene cover...think it looks odd there? Imagine it as an entire newspaper page. Not the best thing I've done, but you gotta start somewhere. This was entirely lit by two flashes. Now that I see it online, it looks like they moved his hand closer so it worked

More photo news, theres two new photos which were also cool graphic elements (theater one) and front page (couple) photos. So use the link at the top of the page to check those out.

FINALLY, tomorrow is Marathon. No not a race, I'm too lazy for that. Rather the VQ will be doing improv for 12 hours straight on cross-campus. Noon to Midnight. It's pretty intense, but I'm greatly looking forward to it. If I had an Iphone and Twitter, I would give you a play-by-play. Unfortunately I don't, so you'll have to get the low-down after (OR you could just come see us!)

That's the last two weeks. Only three more weeks till classes are over...we're gonna make it!
