Stick it to the Man status

So - update on my drama. Things were going fairly well, I have a decent amount of props, except - I can't find anywhere for those covering the Hispanics/Latinos/Chicanos. I was pretty prepared for not finding anything for the Inuit and easily fixed that, but this is hard.

I'm officially changing my drama to Work In Progress status. Over the winter break I want to check a more diverse area for, well, expectedly more diverse items. I'm putting a lot of money into this endeavor with the only thing received being self-satisfaction, which is payment enough, and I want to get it (gosh darnit!). So I want to do this thing right.

I'll be ready to present Tuesday night what I have. What will really be tested is the foundation of my drama, and if my idea is as meaningful and applicable to the student of today as I believe it is, then it should be adaptable and maleable to survive and fit as many changes as necessary. However, many of these changes will be temporary once I'm able to fix them to my liking and have it closer to the way I originally intended. I definitely want to perform this during APAH Month, and I'm still totally in support of some kind of day of mass exhibition of our projects during April. Maybe we could do something like UCAB does in the Sunken Gardens, or use the Lab Theatre for small performances - *something* that could get this noticed. And if we had ticket sales for anything, the money should go to IPAX I think.

So where to go from here? Well, for one thing, I'm going to do a lot of research. Maybe I'll be able to get a ride to Newport News for some props, I heard there might be some places there, but I don't know. I probably should have been more vocal about any donations you guys held meaningful that I could work in, but it's too late for right now. Maybe for April.

As for now - just gotta keep telling myself "Sí me puedo!"
