flagpole sitta

today was rather busy. but busy is good!

first off, i woke up early for community service. i went down to brooklyn to work for a homeless program that gives furniature to needy families who have just gotten new homes... but namely i folded sheets for five hours.

afterwards, after hanging out at my apartment for a while, i was lucky enough to get left-over tickets to the lion king from my school-- so my evening was spent rockin' it out in times square on broadway.

although the entire set-up was truthfully rather surreal, the costumes by julie taymor were absolutely stunning and amazing. seriously, i am inspired to draw an entire picture based on the concepts of her puppetry and masks. the way that the animal features were incorporated with people was excellently done, and the singing was quite good. i was muchly impressed by the dance numbers more than anything else, though.

damn... seeig this made me want to see across the universe all the more.

but yeah. things are going great :D
