"I put LIME on them. I put limes on them... What was I doing, making a fruit fucking salad?"

 Last day of The Pillowman. The show has been going fantastic. It sucks that the theatre can only hold about 60 people, because a LOT more wanted to see it.

Also, ACFT is here tonight. This is good and bad. They with determine whether or not we will be going to to Lansing to perform the show at the ACTF Festival. If we do, I might have to quite my job at Meijer. But if we do, it will probably be one of the most awesome times of my life.

Yesterday I got a bouquet of flowers from my family. It was beautiful told Bill, the main character of the show, that I felt stupid because I had this big bouquet and I don't really have a big part. 
He got really serious and said, "Hey. You deserve it. You kick ass every time you're out there." And other things. It made me cry. I'm not quite sure why it made me cry, but I think it is because I don't feel like I really belong here. I've made few friends here, and I feel nowhere like I did when I was in High School. I feel like the people here like me because I'm in the show with them, but they probably think I'm weird.

How strange that I am trying to be more of an honest person and more myself, but I worry that everyone thinks I'm too weird for them.

Anyway, the 30 days of Truth: Day 2 ; Something you love about yourself

I'm trying to find more things that I love about myself and like who I am better.

1. I love my wit. I think I'm pretty quick-witted, and even though I'm not as great at improv because I have been out of practice for a year, I still think that when I get back into it, I will be good.
2. I love my freckles. I used to hate them. As a child, I wondered if there was a way to get rid of them, but now that I am older, I've realised that they make me stand out form others. Also, they aren't so noticable that that is the first thing a person sees, because they kind of blend in with my skin, but they are pretty, I think.
3. My hair colour. Not my natural one, but for some reason, I do a really good job of picking out reds that match my eyes and go with everything I wear. I'm very proud of this fact, and I think red looks fab on me.
4. This has to do with my wit, but I love my sense of humour. My sense of humour has gotten me through a lot of hard times, and a lot of amazingly wonderful awkward moments. 
5. My paleness. I get teased for it a lot, but I thinks it's pretty. It's classic. Sure, tan is "beautiful" now, but even if you see a completely pale woman dressed in the right attire, there is something luminous about her.
6. I love my creativity. I say this meaning when I actually get the initiative to do something creative. In my acting class, I'm pretty good at directing scenes, and I would like to thank my creativity for that. 
7. My ability to read people. I know what you're thinking... no you don't! Well, most of the time I do.

show, the pillowman, 30 days of truth
