Well this week has been crazy, but fun. Haven't updated in a while. So...
Monday we hadcall back auditions for solo musical competition slots, which was a great accomplishment in itself, because there were only 13 call backs out of 22 that origanally auditioned. I auditioned w/ "Adelaide's Lament" from GUYS & DOLLS. I love the song. It is my child. LOL...j/k. I sing w/ a Brooklynese accent in it..and I get to be sick all at the same time. Fun stuff. Anyway, I was absolutely thrilled when I found out Teusday that I'm going to competition for solo musical!!! Which means I am filled to capacity for the# of events I can compete in @ districts: Large Group Musical (16 of us from the Les Mis cast...the stronger singers...doing "One Day More"); Ensemble Acting (Me, Heather, and Amber doing r spelling bee scene from "Eleemosynary"); and Solo Musical ("Adelaide's Lament"). I am soooooooo excited! Yea!
I think my play, "Eleemosynary", this week went well overall. I got a lot of compliments on it. When I was on stage I got really into my character...I really connected. I have never been that into a character before. Then again, I haven't ever had as prominent a role as that of Artie. I know I'll always remember this play. I love the people in it with me. I love it. I love theatre more and more each day. The sad thing is to think that I only have a year left with this program...b/c i know, even if i do theatre @ college, my parents (@ least dad) won't approve. Plus, I'm not that great. I'm improving, but I'm not that great. But I still love it. It has always been a part of me, but lately, it has become probablly the biggest passion for me. Thanks to all those that came and saw it. For all those people stuck in band that wanted to come see it, u were there w/ me in spirit. And for a few that didn't come b/c others are more important, even though they promised, well...
So it has been a SUPERLATIVE theatre week, but i dunno, it feels like some people just don't seem to care about me much ne more. And then there are people who don't even know me that seem to not like me from other people's prejudice against me...not b/c of ne thing I've done, but b/c of people I'm associated w/, or just b/c I'm too damn "bubbly"! Gosh, never knew that happiness was a bad thing. Oh well. They're just happiness leeches - people that try to suck other people's happiness b/c of their own insecurities - or something like that. Ne way...please respond to this if ne one has ne thing at all to say! <3
