end of the world.


from an "end of the world" party i helped plan.
did you party hard december 21st?
we ate delicious scones (and the like). 
sang around a campfire.
participated in an epic white elephant gift exchange.
 and sat on a trampoline in freezing cold weather laughing about things that probably weren't that funny.

i really love getting together with old friends.

a day in the life.

hello!
oh yes.
i know.
it's been a while.
but i'm back! 
huzzah!

so back in november i did an instagram challenge.
basically, take a picture every hour and post it on instagram.
kind of a glimpse into a day in my life.
and now i'm sharing it here!

8am.
waking up in my room is a beauteous sight.
the quilts.
the photos.
the simple, quaintness of my room.
i love it all so very much.

9am.
i don't know about you...but i think leg warmers are kind of the coolest invention ever.
nothing else keeps me quite as warm as a pair of leg warmers.
and they're just about as fashionable as can be.

10am.
every day i spend a total of 2 hours in the car.
driving/riding to and from work.
it's kind of annoying at times...but i may not have to do so much longer.
*secret alert* stay tuned for more.

11am.
the theatre.
my work.
my hobby.

my home away from home.


12pm.
oh chickfila.
there is no place quite like you.
waffle-y fries.
perfectly fried chicken.
sweet tea.
chickfila sauce.
PERFECTION!

1pm.
the costume shop.
some lovely 80's clothing.
(we were in the middle of costuming "footloose.")

2pm.
i'm not going to lie...having a name tag is one of the coolest things.
of all time.
"rebecca roberts.
costumer."
!!!!!

3pm.
remember that time when i was all alone in a sketchy neighborhood working in the costume shop and a strange man walked in and i hid behind a clothes rack and then he left?
ya.
fun times, for sure.

4pm.
i have a fez now.
fezzes are cool.

5pm.
hanging with my friends in the box office.
sitting behind a desk like i actually know how to run the computers.
i don't.


6pm.
stretches before footloose rehearsal.
see that awkward foot just kind of sticking out there.
that belongs to me.
i just pretend i know what i'm doing.

7-10pm.
footloose rehearsals.
because who wouldn't think it's a good idea to be in a show that rehearses during thanksgiving and christmas break and opens on new year's eve?
i think it's a FABULOUS idea.
what else would i do? 

11pm.
the long drive home.
it seriously feels longer every day.


and there you have it, my friends! 
a view of my epic and exciting life as a costumer.
this is basically my every day (with a little twists and turns here and there).
of course, instead of rehearsals i have shows.
speaking of...oh my goodness...footloose is kind of the coolest show of all time.

it's good to be back!
