It is all over. The musical that is. Here are some of my memories and farewells.
-The "Legend of the Red Dragon" will live forever in my heart and hopefully Ben Ruppert's. I know that Abby greatly disliked it, but many others got caught up in the fervor it bolstered.
-Meeting new people is always the best. Abby, Ben, Joanna, Jacob, Samantha, Ethan, and Renee (i haven't talked with her in a really long time). I love new friends.
-Wearing fuscia/hot pink lipstick to spite Mrs. Stafford was totally awesome.
-Chilling with David Shirbroun, my ole buddy from Meeker Elementary school and chess club. Today he got a kiss from Abby, and he is definitely the luckiest guy I know.
-Making intimidating signs to place on the footbridge. Examples are "Kiss!" and an expert drawing of Tricia and Brian making out.
-Cast party at Lott's house. This is perhaps the best thing that has happened to me since 8th grade formal. First, Karoake with hot choir chicks, then clubbing upstairs with more hot choir chicks. We danced for like 2 hours straight with 88.5 FM and Ben Barclay as DJ. Everyone was sopping with sweat, but hey, as Ricky always says "it isn't a party unless it smells bad." I think David is a better dancer than Greg. So ya, we started out in this cramped bedroom with the lights out, and there were like 20 people in it jammin to the radio. Then we booted the DDR people to use the real dance floor. There was way more space and even a disco ball! I lost myself to the pulsating music.
-I only messed up twice that I can think of (with my lines). I vaulted over Jacob on Sat and Sun for the bows, and that was a good decision because everyone applauded way louder than ever before.
-Perkins was great. It was very difficult to eat, because I am left-handed and Tricia was VERY close to my left side. We trashed the restaurant though, so it was fun.
This musical was way more fun than last year, even though I didn't get my desired part. It is on the top five joyous events in the Life of James Pringle list. What else can I say? It was totally awesome.
