Wow, what fun
So yea, I'm in Connecticuit right now. And what fun it is.
It actually started amazing. I took the ride in with Greg and his mom. We had a blast. Except for when I took his picture and he stole my camera and i almost broke his finger. Then he almost broke mine when i got it back. Yeah. But we had a blast.
Then we watched all the performances. EVERYONE was amazing. I think i peed from laughing at Maloney, just a trickle. And Emily's solo was A-FRIEKIN-MAZING. And so was Sweeney's. And CJ made me tear up a bit.
Yeah.
And then I went back and ate dinner in my room. :-/. Chicken fingers and fries. Only thing i really ate all day.
Then awards. Which made Maloney a bawling mess, because she got Platinum (the highest award) and 1st place in her division. WHICH IS AMAZING! I am so proud of her!
Then we went to Emily's room to chill. I got a headache.
Then the real not fun part started.
I woke up around 7 with like acid build up of something. Took pepto and tums and it wouldn't go away. Then around 8:30 I got sick. Really sick. Which woke my sister up. Who woke my mom up. So I got in bed and had some pepto. Got sick again. And then I was fine for a bit. I started to get nauseous again, which I knew was a bad sign. I couldn't even keep down water. And I was dry heaving. Which sucked.
So, I had my mom call the ER to see how long the wait was. And they told her to take me to the immediate care center in the hospital. I got out of bed to go and made it to the door and had to curl up on the floor. She called for a wheel-chair. That took 10 minutes to get there. Yeah, love hotel service, don't you? So they wheeled me down to the car, drove me there. I waited for like 15 minutes, then they made me get up and stand on a scale. I almost passed out on the way. And the second I sat down, I got sick again. Which was retarded, cuz there was nothing in my system.
So, they gave me meds for the nausea. As I'm leaving, I get to the door and collapse in a chair. My entire arms went numb, and my fingers wouldn't uncurl. My face went almost gray and I couldn't open my eyes. It was like I could hear everything going on around me, but I couldn't say or do anything. It was on of the scariest things of my life.
Somehow they got me in a wheelchair and broughtme back to the room, covered me in blankets, and stuck me w/ an IV. Yeah. One of the most painful things in the world. I almost passed out just from that.
While I had the IV in i kept crying, 1-from being sick and 2-because all of my competition stuff was that day. If I wasn't out in time, I would have missed Emily and Greg. Which I was looking forward to. And then there was all my group numbers. So tara called me and told me I didn't have to do any of it if I didn't feel up to it. I cried.
And guess what? I GOT THROUGH IT ALL! I almost threw up a couple times before I got onstage, but I did it. During Star Spangled Banner I almost passed out from sheer exhaustion, and lack of anything in my system. But I finished, all through Wicked. We did Fame (Gold Trophy), Sweet Charity (High Gold), Seussical (High Gold), Footloose (Platinum), Star Spangled Banner (Platinum) and Wicked (Platinum). We did amazing. I am so proud of myself and of my group. Myself for getting through everthing. I got off after Wicked, and started sobbing on Maloney, because I finished everything. Then I sobbed on mom. I was just so happ that I got past all of what I went through and finished. And my group had to conform to a few things because of me, mainly the lift in Fame. Cheralyn had to do it for me.
All in all, yesterday was one of the scariest things in my entire life. I thought that the second I sat in that chair and passed out thatI was in deep shit. But I did it!
And I realized how close everyone in CSPA is. Because I have people I don't know offering help and assistance if I need it. Parents I don't know are asking if I'm okay. Students I don't know are asking how I am. I think that helped me get through everything.
EDIT: WE WON BEST STUDIO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHICH MEANS WE WON THE ENTIRE COMPETITION!
