Behind the Scenes

As I've said before, I am in my schools production of the Music Man!. Well, we opened up back on Wednesday night..........and we didn't do so well. Yeah some people messed up on lines, little kids came out late, mikes were left on, orchestra forgot to play, we weren't loud. etc. Yeah, your basic high school play screw ups. Sort of bummed me out. Like whenever I watched plays they were so good and fun to watch, but now I miss it all because I'm stuck behind the stage the whole night. It's like the magic's gone! But last ni-
Hi again Emmy!
But last night we went on again and did much better then the first night! Yay us! Still I never remember how annoying it is to get off stage when it's pitch black and you can not for the life of you see where you are going. There's this one scene where we're on bleachers and the lights go out and we have to get off the bleachers. Sounds simple enough, but when you don't know where the end of the bleachers are well it's pretty scary. It's like you're falling into a dark pit! But I'm very proud of myself, I haven't fallen or lost my shoe yet! Those are my worst fears on stage.
Did I ever tell you about my custom??? OOOOhhh! I just love it! Well the shirt makes me look like a blimp and I have to pin the skirt because it's too big.....well actually I don't like my outfit really. But I love my BOW!!!! Omg I was meant to wear that bow! It's bigger then my head and it's Red!!! I just love it! I look simply divine in it!!!
I cannot wait till the cast parties! They're always fun. There's one tonight! But my friend can't come :( sad. But I'll just hang out with my other buds. Still wish she would be there.
Special shout out to my one and only fan, hope you get better and you should come to school!!
