Frosty Foot - Day 32

Day 32: Frosty Foot
Frosty: snowy, frozen. Foot: doggy toes.
Poor thing was cold.

Bonus photos!
Here is what I made for the drama department as a good luck charm for their performance at the state one act competition. They perform at 11:45 am on Friday in Brandon Valley, SD. Break a Leg SHS S.T.A.R.S.!

I wrote a little note to accompany the jar of 100 lucky stars.
"Dear Alice Ensemble,
You are probably wondering what exactly this is all about, right? Well, what you hold in your hand is a jar of 100 lucky stars. They will help to guide you and remind you of all the hard work you have done to get to this point.

As I made each star, I remembered many things about my own experiences at state competition. I remembered being stressed out during hell week and nervous during the competition performance. But I also remembered all the enjoyable, fun times I had as well. Remember those good and bad times, and treasure them. You may not realize it, but you have learned a great deal in the past weeks.

Take a look around you. These people are not only your friends, they are your family. Some you have known for a while, others you met when rehearsals started. If you think about it, it’s amazing how different your life is with just one new person in it.

You are telling a story with every movement, every sound, and every word. Everyone, on and off the stage are telling a story. So:
Begin at the beginning and go on till you come to the end: then stop.

Break a Leg!
Much love,
