Everything!

It hasn't been a week since closing, but it already feels too long. I miss everyone dearly, but I do realise that I must move on after this week, not completely, but I can't spend the time mopping around any more. For some reason, ever since the end of this show, I have felt like writing a poem. Yes, a poem. I know it sounds odd, but as a writer in training, I feel like, at least for now, I should let my heart lead the way. Close away the senses and distractions and just... write. I personally think I'm better at writing short stories rather then poems or songs (which isn't saying much in the first place) but my heart seems to want a poem, so I will definitely get to work on that.

Speaking of writing, the story my friend and I have been working on for school is completed, but bad. So we are planning on using a lot of our now free time to tweak it and hopefully have a little bit ready to test it out on people I trust, the Greenies. I know that it's not very good, but it's what I love so I know I will keep up with it. Especially if I do decide to go to the fine arts school, SPCPA. I'm still trying to decide between going there or too the high school in my district, Mounds view High School. I love Mounds view, but unfortunately, they don't have very good literature or drama programs. Normally I would jump at the chance to go to a place like SPCPA, but I already know, and have known for quite some time now, the choir director at Mounds view and he rocks! As you can probably tell, I have a good few hours trying to decide, that's if I even get excepted to SPCPA. See, you have to audition for it, depending on what you want to major there, instrument, voice, dance, theatre, and musical theatre, I think those are the five you can pick from.

I was checking up on other blogs and found that Claudia is writing another show for the Greenies and I am ecstatic! I mean think about it, another show with the same wonderful cast, written and directed by an amazing director!! I can't wait, but now I need to leave and clean... ew. I hate cleaning, but it's something that needs to be done! Oh, and to those of you who have been pushing me to get a Facebook, I think you might of won. I am now seriously considering deleting my Myspace and getting a Facebook. :D

It's Over

It's been, what, 24 hours sense I left Lakeshore yesterday? And I'm already devastated about the parting with my newest friends. I've been tired, depressed, and cranky all of today, yelling at people who annoy me, and tearing up whenever I remember the fantastic times I've had with my fellow "Greenies." Our last few shows went swimingly (yes, I did just say swimingly :D) but I for one knew that my last show would be the worse. I already almost cried before going on stage and I couldn't 100% get into character, thoughts of, "This is the end," kept floating in my head, distracting me. Giving everyone a hug at the end, I had to leave. That night I couldn't sleep, I just kept thinking, "It's over, it's OVER!" I know it'll take some time to fully get over this but I know I will... eventually.
Hugs and Kisses

Shows shows and more shows!!

So, we are officaly done with four shows and I think I'm already about to cry (which is a HUGE deal for me seeing I CAN'T cry at the end of shows, movies, books, or songs) I mean we have only, what, only NINE shows left!! And they fly! I love this cast and will be very very sad to have to leave it which is why I am trying to pass around a notebook for people to write down all their contact information. Also because my mother (my REAL mother, sorry Jessica) has already approved a summer cast pool party at my house! So I will need to get those from everyone.
But anyway, back to the show. Opening night, Thrusday, went very smoothly, only a few minor mistakes. Second show, Friday, went a little worse, but honestly not that bad at all! Especially since I have heard and experienced, through my entire acting career (which isn't that long :]), that the second show is always the worst! So it's all up hill from here which is definetly a good thing! Today's shows, both went quite well! Most people would think that one would get bored having to do two shows in one day, but at the end I STILL didn't want to leave. Not to mention that the cast had some very fun "bonding" time between shows. And a "few" good laughs!!
I'm so excited to get to spend another whole day at Lakeshore with the whole cast and crew, but alas, I must leave to eat then get some rest so I'll be energized and ready for tomorrow's shows!!
