The results

Luckily the flashmob was postponed, because it is raining quite hard, and it doesn't look like it will clear before 4 p.m.

Did I quit? Well, more or less. As I left for the meeting, I suddenly feared my desition was a bit rash. So, after they told some news, I plucked up my courage and said, "I don't know what to do. I'd thought I'd come here and quit." Then I proceeded to explain why. As I did, I encountered absolut silence, which gave me a notion that quitting (and my reasons for doing so) was not an altogether wild idea. They all agreed with me, some excuses/apologies were made... But since after that we left for the party, (and on good terms, too) I'm not sure whether they thought I quit or not. I'll realize soon, though. Anyway, if they didn't, I'll think about it and decide.

After the meeting we headed for a party/fest that took place at a student's residence. I did a monologue I had learned with Andrea a while ago. It went great! That's something, considering I had only had one rehearsal after root canal, and my mouth was still partly numb due to the anesthesia. The girl who helped me prepare (Luz) had some good ideas for the mise en scène. I'd never shown it to an audience before, but it worked just fine. It is strange to address a lot of people holding glasses of beer (they weren't drunk yet, luckily), but I could connect with them, they laughed, and I got a good round of applause and cheers when I was through.

Another funny detail was that since the place wasn't a theatre, I had to change in a shed and rely on Tamara for makeup, since I had no mirror. I must have been quite a sight, because when Luz came to see if I was ready she laughed her head off. Hopefully, I'll be able to see a picture.
