This weekend only Alamance Repertory Theater Company presents "Annie! The Musical". Annie will be presented at Triad Stage in Greensboro May 11-14th at 8:00 on Thursday, 8:00 on Friday, 8:00 on Saturday, and Sunday at 2:00.

For those of you who have not seen this musical based on the "Little Orphan Annie" comics, its about a 11 year old girl who is an orphan in search of her parents. Annie is a 11 year old girl who just wants to find them. In an attempt to leave the orphanage, Annie gets caught by a police man; and is brought back to the orphanage that is run by the horrible Mrs. Hannigan. Mrs. Hannigan meets a woman named Grace who is the private Secretary for Oliver Warbucks. Find out what happens next by attending this wonderful show for one weekend only at Triad!

The show features a wonderful cast including Phoenix Mangus (Oliver Warbucks), Ella Howell (Annie), Jessica Leigh (Mrs. Hannigan), Danielle Aj Storm (Lily St. Regis), Austin Rowland (Rooster Hannigan), and Eliya Watson (Grace Farell).

Music directed by Eliya Watson, and directed by Gill Hope Thornton (Aged 17) this show is sure to be a hit in the area this weekend!

Speaking of Gill Hope Thornton, did you know she is directing, and partial owner of the theater company at the young age of seventeen? She comments on what its like being seventeen and running her company, and being director of this production in this small interview.

Whats it like being seventeen, and running your own theater company?

It's hard. A lot harder than i expected. A lot of pressure is put on you, and i wasn't ready at the time to hold up a company. But with Walter Boyd's help, we are growing every day!

Whats it like directing a cast this large at the age of seventeen?

It's really hard. I think a lot of the cast had a hard time taking me seriously at first. When i showed them it was all business it started to go smoother, and now i have many new friends because of it!

Did you ever think Triad would be the space for the show? Did you consider any other spaces?

Triad was one of the first spaces i was looking at. I never expected to be able to put on a show in a theater space like this.

Tickets for Annie! Can be purchased through Triad Stage by calling (336)-272-0160 or online at http://triadstage.org/tickets. Come see the show!

11 Moments Every College Freshman Has Experienced

Because we made it, and because high school seniors deserve to know what they're getting themselves into

too tired to care

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

Letter To My High School Friend Group

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf: Your Spirit Animal

Who wouldn't wanna be Queen B?

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo
