Twins' day out part 2
[to those who've read peachy's blog before this, one might experience the sensation of deja-vu :)) ]
Yeayness! Yesterday i met up with Peachy to watch Trumpets' Joseph The Dreamer in Megamall (Thank you jepoy!=) ). We got there early, at around 12:30ish, so we went around hunting for our future happy planners of next year. We conquered National Bookstore, Powerbooks, Egg, Humor Post, and Toy Kingdom (hey, there are a lot of neat stuff in there!), but sadly there were no happy twin planners to be found :( Anyways, when it was finally time, we went to the theater which was surrounded by students who were also watching JTD. Luckily, we were part of the "sponsors" list so we were able to go in first! While in our seats, something fell from Peachy's bag and made a loud clang on the floor, so we both bent down and started looking for whatever it was, waving our cellphones around as a source of light. Suddenly a pair of feet came into view along with a deep-voiced, "uh,excuse me..". Standing next to me wondering what the heck i was doing was Joms and his friend liz! Hahaha. Funny. Well anyway, the show was great! Despite the students who weren't very enthusiastic some of the time, everything was great. Their voices were so nice that i thought they were just lipsynching at first! Hehe, yeay, congratulations jepoy and maita, and the rest of the cast :)
here are some of the happy pictures:

Oh. Here's one thing that we decided not to tell people. Buut, Seeing joms and peachy just reminded me of this. And since the whole thing's almost over anyway..... our secret is now finally OUT. This was our closest call to "STARDOM":
:))
Forget regret.... or just quit being so fickle-minded.
Sooo, after roaming around and going into any attractively colored store we saw, peachy, joms and I finally went home. That night though, since tita baby gave my lola tickets to the opening night of The Sound of Music, me, lola, my sister and my two cousins went off to Greenbelt. At the entrance to the theater, i could already feel my heart pounding with agony of not having pushed through with the final auditions. I knew this moment would hit me sooner or later, and well, i guess it was sooner. I could see the families of the cast surrounding me, proudly talking about their kids to one another. Maaan, kill me now!! *sob*
Anyway, luckily Menchu played Maria that night. As usual, she was greaaaaat :) She played opposite Audie Gemora as Capt. Von Trapp, and Cherie Gil was the Baroness. I didn't even know Cherie Gil could sing! But after ushering for Doubt, i have such respect for her. :D Surprisingly, the role of Liesl was played by Vanessa Paoleli, a co-glee club member of mine back in OB! Lucky, lucky girl. Hehe, i knew she got in, but i didn't know she was gonna be Liesl! Aww, well goodjob :) Other alternates for the role are Criselda Consuji and Nicole Yulo. Awww, i wanna see all the casts! Anyway, the play was great. They took out a few things and added in a few songs, but it was nice. Haha, the kids are adorable. Some of them are really all-foreign looking, as they've come from either British School Manila or IS or something. Oh, and i loved the girl who played Brigitta! She reminded me of Hermione Granger with her oh-so British ways ;) The set was really great too. Still i could feel an angry voice of regret yelling at me everytime i'd see the people i auditioned with up there on the stage. Hay nako, well that does it! I WILL audition for REP's Fiddler on the Roof next year! [*oh please don't let some last minute screw up happen before the auditions like it almost always does*]
So i guess that closes my sem-break for this year. That and the fact that i just got sick last night, while IN the theater watching the Sound of Music. A headache, a cold, a sore throat, and only one day away from the start of second semester. Ang saya-saya. Haha.
