It's hit me today how lonely this place might be. I don't want to get homesick and I don't think I will, but it's very difficult to get onto the internet unless I borrow someone else's computer or use the one in the costume shop. Not having my phone isn't helping either. So my addiction to texting and facebook has had to go almost cold turkey.

I met my flatmate, Jen Seluznow, today, which made me feel more comfortable. And I went to the costume shop to see where I am going to be working and met everyone there as well, including Daniel Mathews who will be coming to Bournemouth next year. Everyone else here is from different areas of the US so they've all been in the same place that I am now, but its still scary, and in a way intimidating to meet so many new people all at once, without the luxury of being able to call home.  An hour on facebook this afternoon made happy :)

The show that I will be working on this summer are Macbeth (apparently 'Macbeth' can't be spoken in the theatre because it's bad luck and so it's called MB or Moose), Merchant of Venice and Much Ado About Nothing. All being shown in the Adams Theatre, built to look similar to The Globe Theatre.

Generally it's been a chilled out day, but with lots fitted in. I had a look around the area, did a bit of food shopping and went to the costume shop for cupcake day and to meet everyone.
