So, this week.
Well, I worked as usual. On Monday I helped Erica to schedule some final interviews for the Front of House position. On Tuesday we held two of the three interviews. It was really interesting for me to conduct my own portion of the interview. I wondered what the interviewees must have thought seeing a young intern come in to interview them for a position. But Allison and Erica assured me that because I have been at Lifeline for a while and I know how things work and what it’s like to be an employee ther,e that I was more than qualified to help with the job. I felt like I was back in my Senior Seminar class, except that instead of practice interviews with fellow students I was conducting a real one. It was a fun experience.

Today I started the day watching the first performance of our new Kidseries show: The Naked Mole Rat Gets Dressed. The book that the musical is adapted from is not very long, and there is very little dialogue, so it was really fun to see what the adaptor and the composer had done to create a more involved storyline. The costumes were so fun, and the characters were hilarious. It was funny to watch a show where the main character was being ridiculed for wearing clothes and not wanting to be naked all the time: not exactly how we human beings would react. Haha.
The opening number for this musical is entitled "Naked". Yes, it is about all of the naked mole rats and their love of being naked. It's actually a very catchy number, and it has gotten stuck in all of our heads for the past week. Throughout the day someone will randomly sing "naked!" and the rest of us will quickly chime in. I caught myself singing it on the train home the other day, and I got a few strange looks. But, there have been weirder people on the CTA.

This weekend I am house managing for the Friday night performance of Hunger. And Saturday is St. Patrick’s day. My roommates want to venture into the city to see them dye the river green and watch the parade. I’ve lived near Chicago my whole life and I have never been in the city to see the festivities (probably best because I’m sure the crazies will be out to play that day). We are looking forward to walking around and enjoying the gorgeous weather! I’m very sad that I don’t have any of my flip-flops with me. I thought that I would have another few weeks before I needed my warm clothing (I think we all did).
Well that’s all I have to say about my week thus far. I hope you all are well! As always, you are in my thoughts and prayers.
