11 Foods That Fuel The Theatre Major
Dreamatico.com

If you have friends who are involved with the Theatre and Dance department at Ohio Wesleyan University, you know they have long hours, are often working several shows at the same time, and barely get any sleep.

We try to eat, but more often than not our classmates end up snacking rather than having an actual meal, or just live off coffee and pure will.

So here's a list of ingestible items that fuel the Theatre Majors at OWU.

1. Coffee.

I don't feel like I need to explain this one.

2. Monster.

I guarantee at least one person in the Department is drinking one at this very moment.

3. Bagels from the Hamwill Bakery at 4:25pm.

Because we might not get to eat till a lot later in the day and damn, those bagels are nice.


4. Anything Publicity Crew brings in.

You know, for receptions and strike?

5. Pizza at the lunch hour.

Between production meetings and major/minor meetings, a lot of our lunch hours are in the Theatre, so the Hamwil lines are unacceptable.

6. Alternatively, sushi at the lunch hour (pizza was the day before).

Some savages even go in with a fork.

7. J Gumbo's on Fridays.

You know, because Hamwil is closed.

8. Props food during shows.

It was mashed potatoes during An Enemy of the People, week-old cake during Red Hot and Cole, amongst others.

9. Hot Pockets (looking at you, Ares).

He makes them during morning classes. I laugh every time.

10. Tea.

For our voices, you know?

11. The tears you shed over the script/light plot/ground plan/props list/cast list.

Most are tears of frustration.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
