Hello hello!

This week confronted our group with tiredness, big sugar cravings and annoying emotions, slowly but surely our 'all girls show' is syncing us to share what all girls get at the same time each month. It is rather inconvenient of course but at the same time amusing as we can share our strife together, rather then alone at seperate times each month. I am not sure why I am sharing this but I think to me it was a sign of how close everyone is getting, we are becoming a tight knit family and it makes me very happy, we really need this as homesickness really takes its toll. This weekend our 'big family' got together to celebrate American Thanksgiving. Stacy organised this a few weeks back as we were all feeling very homesick, so she thought celebrating something together would make us feel better... it really did. What an amusing night it was... Renee set her pita bread on fire, thus setting Stacy's oven on fire! Luckily no one was hurt and Stacy's kitchen wasn't effected thanks to Columbia who fire extinguished the fire out! Unfortunately Summer's sweet potatoe dish and my apple pie were fire extinguished in the process, so there were some hefty sacrifices... It was very funny though, possibly the highlight of the night! A MASSIVE highlight this week for me was my first time seeing snow! It was amazing, I was skyping Richard at the time, and he told me to look out the window, and when I did I was greeted with Montreal's first snowfall of the year! I was so excited! It has melted away now but hopefully next week more snow will come.

Training this week was pretty good, however our usually productive sessions were somewhat interrupted by the need for a random presentation on Friday. We were presenting to the director of the show but we really didn't have anything solid put together so it was a bit of a kerfuffle. We began our strength and cardio programme this week which we have to do in our own time now. We also began specific character work in acting. This was really really helpful for our act, as we were able to put the images in our heads into practice without having to worry about acrobatic skills at the same time.
