Update 2-10-17: 

So a bit of interesting things of note, since my last update. We have learned a couple more dances for the play, one of which proves a bit scandalous, though our choreographer has toned it down from what it potentially could be so it could be worse. The director has suggested she might consider rather risque costumes for the number though, so needless to say if I see any of my Professor's in the crowd during the show's run, I likely will not be able to look them in the eyes for a quite a long time after words, lol. I've also been given a couple of lines within the first act, which is pretty cool We've also began mapping out the first act scenes last night, another fun moment

Other classes wise. I have essentially memorized the lower case Greek alphabet, though not in alphabetical order. I memorized the symbol first only because, while knowing the order is good, when your reading Greek words knowing delta follows gamma does help one translate  βιο as beta-iota-omicron. Although, not having the alphabetical order memorized did lead to some hilarity as I admitted to my Professor that I didn't have it memorized which, lead to a humerus back and forth in his office, that included me butchering the pronunciation of ρ or rho. I pronounced rh-ow instead of row, lol. He got a last laugh on me as later he opened the Greek/ Latin class by noting I would say the Greek alphabet in order, lol. I love my Professor. In my History of the Language class we learned the basics of linguistics and then shifted into learning the differences and similarities between Old English and Present Day English. At this point, I have learned to transcribe consonant and vowel sounds and have shifted between OE and PDE spellings.

Annndddd....the biggest piece of noteworthy news. As I mentioned I've been considering getting my Master's. Well, I don't know if it is because doing the play has inspired me to go big or go home but, not only am I thinking of entering a Master's program, I am considering going out of country to do so. At this point there are only two universities still accepting applications for the fall: Edinburgh and St. Andrews. My Professor is willing to write me a recommendation and since he is an alumni of Edinburgh that might prove somewhat helpful. I still plan on applying here at home, too, just in case but, when I do apply to those Universities will be for an Master's in Creative Writing.

I love Edinburgh. We were there for the military tattoo and the Fringe festival. It sounds like you are destined to continue and get your masters. Good luck.
