My feet are killing me! Let me tell those who ever wondered what it is like to stand for 5 hours straight, -it's hard. I was dying to sit down and have a cup of coffee and a footbath. Had a ten minute break, that's all.
It was just one night of learning, and it all went well, mainly thanks to the more experienced hosts who saved our asses on several occasions. LOL The old crew are all super-nice and will be fun to get to know btw.
Yesterday was rehearsal with audience, free tickets and unnumbered seats. Tonight will be the real thing. Eeek. If someone wants to know where seat number 28 in row 8 in area 201 is, I will not be the right person to ask. It's gonna take me a few nights to figure out the place, but getting used to confront grown up people, guiding them around like children and correcting them where necessary will take a wee bit longer.
Actually I have to face a few fears I've had since I was little. Confrontation is not my strongest asset. I was taught to turn out the smooth side, and be a good girl in any given situation. I was always treated like a child, and no responsibily was given or demanded, and much of my growing up was something I had to figure out by myself as I went along. I believe I was forgotten, or maybe even a hassle to deal with, so I have had many tough rounds with myself and my own attitudes over the years. But I still suck at confronting. I guess now is the time to learn. Somehow I always think there's a meaning to all things that happen in a lifetime. Whether it's supernatural, destiny or simply that we follow a route of some kind. What you didn't master at age 12 is coming to haunt you at 25. I'd rather think it's the destiny-thing. Things are meant to happen, by some universal force that nudges you in the right direction. Fascinating thought.
