DRIVER'S LICENSE!!!

Yep, you read that right- I got my driver's license!!!

Just took my test about 2 hours ago. I'm ecstatic. I waited about 4 years to get it and I'm so glad I passed. Now I don't have to walk to school anymore, not totally reliant on my parents taking me places, and when I move to Florida I am now SURE that I will be able to get around. =D EEEEE!!!!

Yeah, that's about it lol Short post- awesome subject.

Have a Magical Day- I know I will!

BTW people- Ask Me Stuff!!! My formspring is lonely! It doesn't even have to be Disney related. Just stupid random stuff will make me happy :)

I've jumped on the bandwagon...

I have officially jumped on the polyvore bandwagon. And I must say... I'm addicted. It's so fun. I've done a few already and here's some of my favorites :)



This is my dream outfit to go eat at Le Cellier. If I was going to dress up and (finally after so long) get to eat at Le Cellier- and I had unlimited amounts of money to spend on my outfit- this would be it! Don't you just love the maple leaf necklace?!




An Animal Kingdom inspired outfit :)



Snow White inspired outfit! I am seriously trying to get together the yellow dress, blue sweater outfit. I LOVE it.

Here's a link to my profile on polyvore-

Hockey, Disney, and School. In that Order.

Hey everyone!

Hockey:
So USA played Canada tonight. I was very torn. I'm an American. But I am a HUGE Sidney Crosby fan, who is Canadian. So who did I cheer for? Well... I really didn't cheer for either, but I kind of cheered for both lol When something happened for either team I just said "I'm happy and sad at the same time!" It was a very confusing night for me haha

Disney:
I am no closer to deciding which audition I should go to. I started to lean towards Pittsburgh, but then my mom said if we're going to FL, I might as well audition down there and use my FL address. But then I mentioned that the Pitt audition is a week earlier than the FL one and she got just as confused as I am. I've decided to wait to make a decision until after Disney posts the audition for Orlando on the site. I'm going to see first of all if they're even having one on Apr 1st and if they are, what they are auditioning for. If they're not auditioning for the range of stuff they are in Pitt, I think I will go to Pitt. But who knows.

On a different Disney note, I'm planning a new costume :) Duh duh duh duuuuuh!!! (that is to be read as a fanfare lol):


I'm starting to work on a White Queen costume from the new Alice movie! I haven't seen more than the trailers, but she already is my favorite character. It's definitely a role I would want to play. I have a white prom dress that I bought for really cheap that I'm going to alter into this dress. It will take a while, but it shouldn't be too difficult. I'll post updates on here of the costume!

School:
School's good. It doesn't help me concentrate when there are 5000 College program posters and flyers up all over campus. But other than that it's good. Keeping up with my theatre stuff.. barely keeping up with my one General class. Geology... ugh. That reminds me... I need to work on that.

Hopefully once we get into the month of March I will be able to update about what audition I plan on going to.
And I hope to get another vlog up this week- so watch for that.

CONFUSION!!!!!

If you couldn't tell by the title- I'm kind of confused....

You all know I am planning on auditioning for a Seasonal role with WDW Entertainment for this summer, right? Right.

My plan was to audition during my spring break on April 6th in Orlando. I was told by a CM in casting that my best bet was to audition in March/April. So I was planning on going to WDW for my spring break and auditioning that Thursday. (Which I don't even know for sure if there will be an audition that day...)

Well now the CP audition dates go up on disneyauditions.com and they're coming to Pittsburgh, as usual. But it says that they are also auditioning for Full Time/PT/Seasonal roles in Pittsburgh. They say they're looking for Character Performers for shows and parades and Princess look-a-likes. Well those are things I want!

Now I don't know what my best option would be.

Here's my pros and cons of each:

Orlando Audition:

Pros: ~ It's in Orlando- shows I'm there and really eager.

~ get to go to WDW for spring break

~ I can use my Florida address ( I guess I could use that anywhere, though...)

Cons: ~ It's in Orlando - I would have to travel.

~ It's a week after the Pittsburgh audition- the more time passes, the more auditions they have, the less spots they have open

Pittsburgh Audition:

Pros: ~ It's close to where I am now- only about an hour away

~ It's a week before the Orlando Audition

~ If they're actually making the effort to have FT auditions there, it means they want people.

Cons: ~ I would be a person from PA trying to get seasonal in PA- I heard before that they really shy away from giving people from outside FL Seasonal roles (that could have been bad info, though)

It's the same people doing the auditions in both places, I believe. I mean, I've had the same people at almost every audition.

So what do you all think? I'm so confused right now.... This is all I have ever wanted and I really want to get the job for the summer. It just aches in my bones how much I want this... I am open to any of your opinions or advice. Let me know!!!

Apparently I live in Narnia now...

Seriously- where's my Prince Caspian?!

It does nothing but snow here anymore. I'm so sick of it. I hate walking almost a mile to class in the snow. (I wouldn't have this problem if I wasn't a loser who doesn't have her license...) But I have to do it. Unfortunately.

So this post isn't going to have too much in it. Not too much has happened recently. Just going about school stuff. Oh! I did learn that many of my friends are going to be in WDW when I am over Spring Break! That'll be really fun- we're going to meet up hopefully and eat or something. I'm excited. I always go with my family- and while I absolutely love going with them, it's such a different experience with friends your own age.

I'm going to do a shameless plug for my vlog and formspring.

Hey Everyone!

Kat And The Mouse: The Vlog!

I don't have too much to talk about yet, but hopefully I will be able to keep them entertaining until I have some real stuff to talk about.

If you have any ideas you want me to talk about - let me know!

And don't forget to formspring me!

ArtsGive 2010

Last Night, my college held a fundraiser for Haiti relief called ArtsGive. It featured music, dance, theater, art, and even puppetry! It was a free event, but we asked for donations to 3 different charities and organizations doing work in Haiti. We also auctioned off art and old show posters.

I was able to participate in 3 different pieces throughout the night. I sang with the musical I am in later this semester (More on that another day.), did a piece of text from a Haitian writer, and performed a solo dance. My solo dance actually had a WDW connection! I danced to "We Go On" from Illuminations :) I felt it went really well, and it got a great reception from my friends and other audience members. My best friend recorded it, so when I get the video link I will post it here.

Update!- Here's the link to our musical performance from the show! I am the brunette in the red tshirt- second from the right! (I come in at about 1:28): Kingdom Come - Artsgive Performance!

All in all the night went very well! The performances went off without a hitch. It featured students from the divisions of music and theater. We also had a great performance from The Hide and Seek Effect- an up and coming band in my area. You should check them out!

We raised over $2000 to send to Haiti! How awesome is that?!

That's actually a really great number, considering the collection at the WVU vs. Pitt game (with 16,000 people in attendance) only raised $1700. We only had about 200 people. Just proves how powerful the arts can be and how generous supporters of the arts are.

In other news- I started a vlog! I don't have any videos yet, but I set up my YouTube channel. As soon as I get a video up, I will let you all know!

Have a Magical Day!
