Friendly reminder that we have our club picture tomorrow, Thursday, December 12th, at 9:00am in the gym. Ms. Hall can give you a pass to get out of your class. WEAR YOUR THESPIAN SHIRTS OKAY EVEN IF YOU DON'T HAVE ONE FROM THIS YEAR WEAR ONE FROM A PREVIOUS YEAR OR THE ONE SHELBY AND ADELINA MADE FOR YOU.
Also we have a Thespian meeting. Facebookers: tell your non-Facebook Thespians about this not-even-lying important news post! Those who aren't on Facebook need to know all of this information, too! THE THING THAT MAY BE THE MOST IMPORTANT IS THE MEETING TODAY AFTER SCHOOL FOR THE NM STATE THESPIAN CONFERENCE. SERIOUSLY YOUR MONEY IS DUE ON FRIDAY (THE 13TH) AND YOU NEED ALL OF THIS VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND PERMISSION SLIPS AND REGISTRATION AND STUFF LIKE THAT SO PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE COME.
In un-capitalized text: the New Mexico State Thespian Conference is taking place on January 17th and 18th, 2014 at the Albuquerque Academy. Incredibly, stupidly-important information is going to be given today after school in A-1. "Important information" reads as follows: how much you need to pay ($50), when you need to pay it (Friday, Dec. 13th), and many other things. PLEASE come to this meeting if you're interested in coming with us to State this year! Friday, Dec. 13th is also the night of our Holiday Party!!!!! WOOOOOOOOH! It's going to be at Aj's place (ask him via Facebook or SMS for his address) and it starts at 6:00pm. It'll probably also be posted on the chalk board in the classroom) this year. Bring good treats such as actual food (read: main dishes and dinner items) and cute holiday-themed goodies. Aj requests that you PLEASE carpool!!! Seriously, though because there isn't that much parking, also it is better for the environment. Another possibility that falls under carpooling is get someone's parent or older sibling to drop you and a few others off. Either way, try as hard as possible to carpool!! Under that same umbrella, we will be doing a voluntary White Elephant gift exchange! For you kiddies who don't know what that is, allow me to explain. A White Elephant is when you buy a low-priced gift (or gifts) and take it to this get-together of ours. The limit for gifts is $5! People who bring gifts will put them in a pile and be given a number. Now, only those who buy a gift will get a gift. The number signifies the order. Whomever is #1 will pick a gift from the pile (wrap your gifts because it will make this much more fun!) and unwrap the gift. #2 will then have the ability to steal #1's gift or choose a gift from the pile. This goes on until all of the gifts are unwrapped. Once you unwrap a gift, you can't put it back. Also, a gift may only be stolen twice! You can steal any of the opened gifts (unless it's been stolen twice.) Oh, and you can either pick a gift from the pile or steal a gift if a gift is stolen from you. Again, the White Elephant gift exchange is completely voluntary, so if you don't have the money, or don't want to participate for any reason, it's completely okay. Just keep in mind that if you bring a gift, you get a gift and remember the $5 limit. Another INCREDIBLY important thing that is going on THIS WEEK is our group picture!!! They will occur on December 12th (Thursday) at 9am. I understand that this is during a class period, but you can go to Ms. Hall for a pass. Meet in the gym at 9am for these lovely imprints of our faces to be made. There is no extra cost for taking this picture and it will go into the yearbook! PLEASE IF YOU HAVE A THESPIAN T-SHIRT IT IS HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED THAT YOU WEAR IT ON THURSDAY SO WE CAN ALL LOOK NICE. IT DOESN'T EVEN HAVE TO BE A SHIRT FROM THIS YEAR, IT CAN BE A THESPIAN SHIRT FROM ANY YEAR EVER. Aaaaaaaallllssssoooooo on that similar note, Thursday, December 12th is also the deadline for paying your dues aaaaannndd updating your points for this semester. Again, as if we haven't told you many times already, dues are paid in G-5 whenever they're open. If you are not a Thespian, you must pay $20 (codeword: perspective thespian) and this will get you a points sheet and entry into the National Thespian Honors Society. If you are already a Thespian, you just have to pay $10 (codeword: returning thespian). Now let me explain a thing: if you haven't paid your dues, DECEMBER 12TH IS YOUR ABSOLUTE LAST TIME TO PAY DUES EVER. Not really, but if you're a senior, this is your last chance to enter into the legion of official Thespians. And even if you're an underclassmen, starting as early as possible with your point sheet is optimal. Also, there are perks to being a Thespian. Again: after December 12th, 2014, you will NOT be able to pay your dues for the 2013-2014 school year. Coming off of that, December 12th is also your last day to update your points for this semester. We need to give our president enough time before break to count up our points. Points will get you many cool things, such as a Thespian card, which can get you discounts into shows, a letter, bars, and other hip accessories. This Thursday (December 12th) is our last Thespian meeting of the semester. You'll learn important information, as always, and we'll make sure to play games this week! We learned some fancy new improv games in Denver, so coming to this meeting will be worth-while. Also, why not come anyway? There is no rehearsal, and we haven't had a meeting in 5ever. Please come to this meeting and hang out with us and have a great time. Tell all your friends about the meeting, because we're cool, y'know? Finally, all of you lovelies who went to the Colorado State Thespian Conference in Denver, I know many of you took pictures. Send all of them to Shelby at [email protected] so that they can be included in the slideshow at the end of the year. You can also post them on Facebook to show the world the beauty of the LCHS Thespians. Facebookers: tell your non-Facebook Thespians about this not-even-lying important news post! Those who aren't on Facebook need to know all of this information, too! Have a good week, burritos. |
