What I love about costuming is how some things have stayed the same for decade; while other things are constantly changing. For instance, this spring while I was working on Wizard of Oz I was introduced to the concept of printing pattern pieces directly onto plain white fabric. 

My schedule has changed over the past month because of the tour I am a part of. I thought today was Tuesday. Thankfully I still had to be at work anyway. Sometimes in theatre we forget what day of the week it is; or is it just me?

I am starting a journey towards graduate school. I have made lists, contacted references, made more lists, and started my personal statement. I have never been stellar at selling myself on paper. I enjoyed my English classes and love writing articles and some research papers, but when it comes to telling others why they should pick me I tense up. 

There are many reasons I chose costuming as a career, but history and m love of it is one of the biggest reasons. I have loved history, learning about societies in the past, events, rituals, etc. since I was little.
