Soap Operas WHEEEEEEEE
My life has been... interesting as of late. Boyfriend and I broke up last wednesday, which drove me kinda crazy bc I was trying to save it by turning it more into a friendship but he was like "...lets just be friends..." and I was like "fine", it didn't hit me until like friday when I went to dad's house (JOY x.x) where I spent 4 hours listening to disciplesister rant to me about how its all my fault because I gave myself depression by allowing some demon into my life. Not only that, but she was like "YOU ALLOWED A DEMON INTO YOUR LIFE IT DOESNT MATTER THAT YOU DIDN'T KNOW HE WAS ONE ITS AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALL YOUR FAULT AND ALL THE ABILITIES YOU HAVE ARE A CURSE AND CAUSED YOU DEPRESSION AND ONLY GOD CAN SAVE YOU NOW NYAAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA. SO THEREFORE BREAKING UP WITH HIM IS ALL YOUR FAULT!!!", crammed into like four hours nonstop and the entire time I was like "uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugh" and dad was like "OMG DEMON YOU NEED TO TELL PSYCHS ABOUT THIS YOU NEED TO TELL EEEEEVERYONE!!! AND YOU NEED TO LISTEN TO YOUR SISTER ITS HER BELIEFS AND SHE ISN'T PUSHING IT ON YOU AND YOU NEED TO RESPECT THEM!!!" yeah... uh huh... that entire rant TOTALLY wasn't her shoving it in my face... the next night she came to me again and said that it's entirely my choice for that stuff and that she kinda went overboard the night before, so I was feeling much better. I come back to my house to a huge soap opera I'm now smashed into. Details I am SO not going into, but basically it's exboyfriend and I liking cutewriterguy and arguing like crazy and cutewriterguy's like GAAAAAAAAAAAH
OH YEAH!!! So, I have no idea how long it's been since I've last posted, so I'm gonna dunk this on: I'm in ensemble for How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying. It's a fast-paced business musical, like a romantic comedy. For those who don't know musicals, ensemble would be the sketchy people running around in the background who just run on and offstage and whenever someone starts to sing we pop up and start singing and dancing as well. Mamma Mia (the latest version) shows a perfect example of them, just people running in and somehow knowing exactly where the people are. Another term I guess you could use would be extras. I'm pretty much gonna be mailroomboy#1, so I'm gonna be in the nosebleed section of the stage (there's going to be risers on the stage, and I'll tend to be at the very top) throwing mail at people. I'm deciding how to have my character think of Twimble (head of the mailroom). I came to some conclusions: I'm deathly afraid of him, I hate him, or I'm madly in love with him. The only reason I'm thinking of this is because the stories that run around at the back of the stage are hilarious, like two people hate each other with a passion or one loves another, or they're being complete idiots at the back. I'm going to have to talk to Twimble and Director about it, to see if it would distract from the actual play too much or not.
Not only that, but on Thursday I was at a fashion show. This is a high school one, so I imagined it'd be bad. Actually everyone imagined as much. Afterschool I went home, then kyokomom came to pick me up. We spent the ride over to her house talking about kyoko and her escadapes from she was a child. We went to her house, hung out for a while, and I was making my costumes as well as I could. The fashion show was somehow based off of Greek mythology, with catagories like Posideon (beachwear), Nike (sportwear), Athena (preppy), Hades (goth/emo/punk), and Aphrodite (sexy) I was in Posideon and Hades because those are pretty much the only ones that'd work with my body. Posideon outfit was boring enough; silver/blue shorts, white shirt under open jean shirt, sandals, kisuke hat. Hades was much more interesting: black chain pants, black tophat, black scarf, rly dark blue boots, same white shirt, black coat with tails, eyeliner to look like tears. Everything went smoothly enough, a bit fast-paced for a fashion show anyways. Everyone cheered whenever someone popped up, person walked around, walked back, next popped up immediately. Songs were obvious enough, like Posideon has Under The Sea, Athena had Hungry Like The Wolf, Nike the areyoureadyforit song, Hades Du Hast, Living Dead Girl, and Bodies, Aphrodite Girlfriend. Everyone, as I said, everyone mindlessly cheered for everyone. Come Hades, with people coming out looking emo and punkish, everyone just was like *clap?*, I was the most intense out of everyone, being like the macabre 19th century showhost. Everyone stared in horror as I walked up, with a sadistic grin on my face. I walked up and gracefully bowed, and everyone started to scream with cheers. Walk to the right, give a hand to the crowd, got more cheers, walk to the left, give a hand, even more cheers, dropped my hat and promptly crunched it with one hand and walked off the runway with a grin on my face. Aphrodite was all screwy because the tech crew made a mistake and brought out too many people at one. Come later, and kyoko and I decide to convince her grandma that we're going out, it worked all too well and it was amazing.
Now I'm sitting here still in my pajamas and going to see Hello, Dolly! at 7:30 :3
