Here are a few things I'm doing great at so far:
1) No caffeine. Hi, I usually LIVE on soda at this festival, but since I've cut it out four months ago (and since I'm not a coffee drinker), I'm flying solo these ten days of 5 to 6 hour a night sleeps. I can't speak for the rest of the fest yet but so far I'm feeling good!
2) Not falling asleep during movies. I suppose this is a bit connected to the first but maybe it makes it even more amazing. I haven't fallen asleep or even thought of falling asleep once! Knock on wood since I'm on my way to a 9 AM subtitled feature.
3) Finding a Sundance hoodie. Done and done!
Here's the big fail of the trip:
1) I am NOT drinking enough water. I am so scared I will over-do it and have to pee during the middle of a movie. Failure!!
