Officially finished sorting out my life

And I am left with:

1. A place to live! Next year moving in with a girl and her brother from up near Loch Ness in a beautiful and absurdly affordable flat (landlords had a kid go here and were horrified at the increasing-by-£5/month-every-year prices). Spoke to the sister (Louise) two days ago, and played a game of pool and chatted with her brother Archie today. Both cool, fourth years next year, a psychologist and neurologist.

2. An artist-in-residence for my production company, who will be costume/set/poster designer for Hecuba and puppet maker for Nightmare Before Christmas next year! Harry (my co-director in Psychosis) has this brilliant idea of attaching people to a production company rather than a specific show, and of having an artist-in-residence who can consult and implement on all things arty, so he is 100% responsible for the idea. Talked about doing Hecula almost cyberpunk, with lots of wires and circuitry on costumes. Also an interesting thought of playing with language--Ancient Greek, binary, html (Korean? Hmm not sure how it fits...). So.

3. Actors for Hecuba--aka finally had a serious chat with Clare and talked more with Cheolseung about the show and they are both in, so that's good.

4. A producer, one of my 1984 freshers, who I think will be brilliant. Meeting with him tomorrow.

5. Saw various people before they left for home/travels. Lots of coffee/tea.

I think that's a decent list.

While the title of your post is a bit overstated, it IS good to hear that you'll have a good place to live next year! It's sort of like doing college applications every year... trying to figure out where you will move in 6 months.
