Welcome to the first-ever RSA Blog!

So, here's an odd thing...not only is this the first-ever RSA blog, but it's also my first-ever blog! Yes, it's true, Paul F Muir has never blogged in all his forty-something years of running around on the planet...until now. So it seems somehow fitting that my first blog is an RSA blog. So, I still don't really get what a blog is. I've read a blog or two...I remember when Jordan and Eben (former RSA students) went on their big sailing adventure off the coast of Florida, they had a blog, and it was great to hear about their escapades and misadventures as they happened. Maybe that's all I need to know...maybe a blog is just a cool way of saying "journal" or "diary"? I can live with that. And I do like name...BLOG! Very fun!

This RSA blog will be a way for the world to get an inside peak on life in Rosebud. Students and staff will be assigned to blog many of the various activates, shows and events connected with Rosebud School of the Arts. For instance, a student may be asked to blog about the rehearsal process of an Opera House or Studio Stage show, about a specific class, and of course about our Theatre Trips to London, New York, and BC. A director might also be asked to blog some these things from his/her point of view. There will likely be entries about all the other events here in Rosebud like the Budding Playwright's Festival, Choir Concerts, Student Showcases, Final Projects, Performance Nights, Risk Nites, and even the ever popular 15 Minutes of Fame Festival.

So, if you're into knowing what life in like in Rosebud, this is a blog for you to keep an eye on. Stay on top of things in this little hamlet and keep checking back as often as you like.

Thanks you Rosebud School of the Arts for forcing me to stay current and write my first blog!

Go with God!
