Welcome to the last week of February! It's been snowing in SLC rather a lot since two weeks ago and I'm not very happy about it. That being said, there is a lot that has happened over the past week that has been really fun.
I started vet school last week, and I already know so much more about animals than I did before. For instance, dog pheromones can travel up to two miles. My coworkers think that it's gross, but I find it fascinating. I also learned that birds, contrary to popular belief, do not smell their young, but rather identify them visually. Also, baby conures are really cute.
I went to see "The Little Mermaid" at HCTO on Saturday. It's a really fun musical and the costumes are incredible. There are multiple fog effects used and, while the fog smells like a musty old coat, it adds another layer to the show that is very visually exciting.
Last night I went to see "HIR" at SLAC. It's a very interesting show that really leaves one thinking about the content of the show. On the one hand, you have a very unorganized, fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants character that is accepting of everything except unacceptance. On the other hand, you have the very militaristic character that is driven by regulation and order. In the middle we have a transgender character who is trying to figure out who "zay" (used in place of he/she) is and where zay fits in the world and in terms of personal identity. While "HIR" doesn't attempt to answer any questions, it is a good show and I recommend that you see it.
That's it for today! Be sure to check out "The Little Mermaid" and "HIR"!
