Time to Relax

Friday night a few of my friends & I went to the Hershey Theater to see, "Avenue Q" It is a Tony Award Winning Broadway Musical about a man fresh out of college with a Bachelor's Degree in English. He ends up without a job and lives in New York City on Avenue Q - in a not so nice neighborhood. He ultimately befriends his neighbors and learns some life lessons along the way. The catch is that the entire cast is puppets! Also, it is a tad bit liberal, which makes it that much more awesome. Some of the songs are entitled: "It Sucks to be Me," "The Internet is for Porn," and "Everyone's a little bit Racist!" There is also puppet nudity in the play! oh my!



I must say this musical was a little too far left for most of the conservative Hershians - the highlight during intermission was the lady in a fur vest grumbling about how ridiculous and stupid the play was and that it was a bunch of liberal bull crap.

I finished my month of inpatient medicine this last Friday. I have one more month of medicine - outpatient. So this weekend was a good one to go out and enjoy myself.

And Saturday a big group of us combined of Med students, old friends, and a group of Au Pair's my guy friends have met went to Philly for the day to watch a 76's game!

Let's just say that today (Sunday) - is going to be a relaxing lazy sort of day. I'm looking forward to a little cooking, cleaning, and watching tv!

Sometimes we all just need to get out and live a little. It's so easy to get caught up in the stress of school and work, but don't ever forget to take a little time now and again for yourself. Just relax, have some fun and enjoy life! In the big scheme of things will it really matter if the dishes sit in the sink for one more day (just let them soak a little longer) or the house doesn't get vacuumed until next weekend? Nah...I don't think so! :)

If you would care to see some more of Ave. Q - look below! Here are videos of the opening scene with "It Sucks to be Me" and then below that - "Everyone's A Little Bit Racist"
