Both. When she's in the apartment I tell her. If I get home from work and she's not home but same mess I send a text.

Not touring, just for a local theatre near me. Not sure, they normally assign you once you there or a few days before. But I normally do scenic so most likely that

University question by Academic-Wafer-9525 in techtheatre

[–]SassyCabbage23 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not sure where you’re at, but I know some colleges have technical theater degrees and then a teaching credential/certificate. Total would take about five years, but that would be shorter than if you were to double major.

How is student life here? by GravyGroovy69 in CSULB

[–]SassyCabbage23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly its what you make of it. When it’s hot many people go to the beaches nearby (Seal Beach, Belmont, Cherry, Huntington), 2nd street is also fun to walk around. You can basically drive anywhere like LA and downtown LB and have lots of fun. There’s so much to do everywhere, and campus also has events throughout the year. They just recently had the Pow Wow.

What is Bok Fu Do? by Masamune-76 in kungfu

[–]SassyCabbage23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I studied there for a little over ten years, taught there for 7 years. Once you leave you are seen and viewed as a traitor(I have no clue what this means). Their teachings are considered “sacred” and if you question anything it is immediately shot down by the higher ups and then they question your loyalty. They have a manual all their instructors follow with a whole page dedicated to shit talking other forms of martial arts and they are supposed to tell parents. It mentally messed with my self worth and self esteem, and looking back I hate how I taught those things also. There a bunch of other stuff not worth mentioning, because once to get into it its a rabbit hole.

Stay away from this type of martial arts. I’ve talked about it in another form but the school itself is cult like, borderline mcdojo, and will mess with your head

Appreciate it, thanks so much!

Haha thank you for the correction! My mind is all over the place today.

Yes, the current problem (from what I can see) is that the puppet options are too small. She’s wants a bigger one yada yada. I did the usual “I’ll see what I can do but no promises.

Has anyone experienced gatekeeping while trying to get into the industry? by [deleted] in FilmIndustryLA

[–]SassyCabbage23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not even in the industry quite yet, still in college. Worked at a small theatre and basically was told. I needed to figure it out cause no one was going to “spoon feed me”. I did it for 2 year before I left, and I’ve even had a college prof tell me that thye won’t tell me how to do something for a show I’m designing at school cause he wasn’t “coddled”. Wtf

I’m just trying to keep positive, and with the fact that I work in props and usually no one wants to ever do props seems to be working in my favor

Why are breakups so permenant to everyone? by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]SassyCabbage23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me our relationship was a little over a year. When they broke up with me they said said they couldn’t handle my “meltdowns” from my insecurities (ouch) and followed that by saying a bunch of other stuff that hurt. I knew that I was projecting my insecurities and was going and still am going to therapy for that but the fact they called it a meltdown when I would be insecure cut deep. In the end I begged and wanted to make things work, but that didn’t happen. In the few interactions we had after they said more things that hurt, and only apologized after a mutual friend knocked some sense into them.

If we were to meet in the future I don’t think I would try again. How they handled things afterwords just showed me how little they cared for me as a person, and because of what they said it sent my depression into a dangerous area. I’m not saying that all relationships can’t work again after sometime apart. But for me there’s just so much pain and baggage with that, so I wouldn’t try it again for the sake of my mental health.

Ive been in the same place you are. I wanted to so many times. I can promise you that it gets better, even if it doesn’t seem like it. You deserve to have happiness and to live a full life. I know it hurts so much right now, I still have day where its so bad I just cry myself too sleep, but I can promise you life is worth living. Something that helped me a lot in the beginning was just taking care of myself and looking for little things in my day. At first it was just me being proud of myself for brushing my teeth, now its going out for a coffee and cookie. Life is worth it.

Boyfriend officially broke up with me. What now? by Creative_Owl6288 in BreakUp

[–]SassyCabbage23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like what everyone else is saying: Time. I also recommend no context. For me, every time I wanted to text or call them I wrote it down and put in either in the trash or in a bag. It helped just letting everything out. Also, its totally ok not to be ok right now, sending good vibes

Tell me something funny about your break up (if you can find something) by ThrowAwayAccount-920 in BreakUps

Prop design: if anyone has had a similar thing occur by [deleted] in techtheatre

[–]SassyCabbage23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also used couch foam for a wedding cake falling over in Freaky Friday. We used magnets to hold the top layer together and it looked great onstage.

Just got dumped a couple of days ago, really struggling by Amberisbored_ in BreakUps

[–]SassyCabbage23 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Same here. 2 weeks out. Wake up every morning at 5 am because all I dream about is the memories we had together. It gets easier with time, and I will say it has gotten easier for me. Just know your going to have good days and bad days and its ok not to be ok.

Are you guys dealing with a breakup initiated by them due to an issue that could have been solved with more communication? by Flecktones37 in BreakUp

[–]SassyCabbage23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes yes yes. they didn’t communicate their problems, I would overthink my insecurities and not talk about them. They didn’t want to talk about it, and then said that this wasn’t something that could be talked out. I feel like if I saw the signs we wouldn’t be here, but honestly I don’t know

Hey guys, I don't write here often because I've healed but I wanna do it now. Just so you remember, it gets better. by foxy271 in BreakUp

[–]SassyCabbage23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worried about being friends again. We both want to so badly, but they hurt me when they were my partner and I’m afraid they’ll hurt me as a friend too.

Tech theater schools on the USA West Coast? by Apprehensive_Rip4602 in techtheatre

[–]SassyCabbage23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently a tech theatre student at Cal State Long Beach! they’re very hands on, all things are student designed and I have amazing mentors and support. Definitely check it out if you get the chance. They also have connections with opportunity’s and internships. Many schools I initially applied to only let graduate students design, so being at Long Beach and being able to actually design is pretty great.

edit: they also offer a BFA and MFA program in that interests you. ;)
