And tonight's was the best of them yet. I'm... I'm so, SO terribly unprepared (and DREADING) tomorrow's closing matinee. Ironically? End. Of. Story.

Full review of the following performance, past shows, pictures, dance party extraordinare, and older-teen-between-shows-Seuss-PCP-perverted-pizza-picnic (whew, haha) soon to come, preferably after both family awards banquet/cast party. I apologiiiize: I know my posts have been... lacking magic lately, but I swear on Mother Mary that I will MOAR than just make it up in both photo and woobie dump :] For now? Too exhausted... too hyped... and yet all too hackin' bummed. G'night, all... <:(

<3

My. God.

Tonight was so, SO incredibly amazing. I ca-- I can't even begin to describe how much of an ecstatic whirlwind this singular production was! The only coherent thoughts I can manage are: Hsdjvbhksdvbkdhsvbdhkvbhdbv...!!! In short: WE BROUGHT THE (full) HOUSE DOWN. Did I mention we sold out?!

Oh.

Well-- we did, haha ;P

I'm just... truly, I'm left in awe. Every single person within this cast is so beautifully and GLORIOUSLY talented; they had the highest of energy, the best of spirits, despite the fact that our Cat was feeling somewhat sick before hand. But, however: at least I didn't slip in the snow this time!!! (Haha, it's a looooong story, soon to come XD)

ACK. It. Was. Beautious. I... In all honesty, I couldn't feel as blessed as I do now to work with both such an open and gifted creative team/cast. Unfortunately, however-- my camera battery died, and photos will have to be posted tomorrow night. UGH. Honestly? They review the show within themselves, haha :) God... I can barely even contain my st-stoked... ness right now, lolol. I pray you'll wish us luck in our next four, loves! Peace. Around the world. For generations ;D

Haha, DO IT. XP Please tell them I referred you! :)

: D <333333

UGH. After several, throughly well full-act reviews of Seuss. (off-book, with the exception of understudies), constant re-fittings, hair and shoe notes, show notes-- our production is finally starting to resemble that of the true GLORIOUS-NESS of Opening Night!!! :D Not that we haven't all done well before, but  - I truly believe that for the first time tonight... we let loose. We finally stopped processing our motivation, had a blast, and (with the exception of our FINALE) we were at the pinnacle of our best work! However-- there has been one... plaguing setback:

Everyone's getting sick.
BLECH.

And, though I've had the blessed fortune of not catching anything as of yet, I think I just might be. My throat is a tad sore and, what with our first week soon approaching, Im'a hafta' take it pretty easy. Say hello Vitamin C and gargling boiling salt water!

Not to mention, Mariann totally jinxed me ;( When called in for our first re-fitting (in which Mrs. Roysten needed to be sure we could actually get into and out of the dresses in one piece now that they have trim), Mariann said, "It would suck if someone - and I'll probably be that one - got their period now before the show." <---- And that, my friends, is NEVER fun.

Oh ho HO. She was soooo off. THANKS Mariann :P

Ah, well. On the bright side, only 2 days left until I hit the big 1-5!!!!!!!! [If you didn't already know that, lol] Whut, whut, whut home-skillets :D (Oh, yes. Fear my badass street-ness, lulz) Feel free to throw me a surprise party for serious you guys, hahaha. <3 ~ Peace. Around the world. For generations, all ;] And please forgive me for this amazingly exciting entry, ha. *insert sarcasm here*

PS: Two randomly, slightly hilarious, facts I discovered today when reading People magazine: Kevin Federline is gonna' be playing The UPS Guy in Legally Blonde. #$%@#$%!*(, FTW?! Lolol. Also: Demi Lovato is soon to get her own D*sney Channel original series, Welcome to Mollywood. I'm actually a little embarrassed to admit that I'm extremely excited for this, OKAY?! Haha. :D

PPS: Much thanks to michellecore and her glorious generosity, for I now have an audio of Port Authority. (SQUEE!) Johnny Gallagher + an Irish brogue = one of the most adorably SEXY things I've ever heard in my entire life, spinning one of the most beautiful stories. God, I wish I had been able to see it live...! :)

It's 4:21 in the morning and, have I - Misses Angela Griswold - had even but a wink of sleep? NO'M. This, my friends, is the reason in which why I curse my family's night owlage-- I mean, I have rehearsal tomorrow (our first week within the actual theatre)!! UGH. Speaking of rehearsal, our costume fitting was GLORIOUS on Saturday, even though the yellow of both my feathers and leotard cause me to gain a pretty close resemblance to that of Tweety Bird, lol. (Unfortunately, I couldn't manage any pictures; will show up shortly!)

Although, I strangely adore it; honestly, it's gonna' be quite fantastic-- the costume itself consists of (as stated aboooove) a leotard, with two layered feather boas of the same color across the bottom front. The boas then drape off the side of the outer thigh and gather again to layer/hang in threes upon the TUSH. Plus, we all got to choose differing trims (mine's all sequiny and gold-like, lol) and decide how we wanted them to be layered across our dresses-- the only downside?

My costume was (at first) missing it's frontal layers and, therefore, I had to pin the side feathers across my crotch... Yep.

Lololol, but they soon fixed that, and we now all look extremely FIERCE, if I do say so myself-- I'm incredibly excited for this production, and - in fact, if anyone happens to be in da' neighborhood from around July 24th-27th (which isn't the majority of ANY of you, but--! Lol) and wanting to see a throughly good community production, be sure to message me for the deets, haha. :D

Also on Saturday: Got a manicure [my first!] :) Bird Girl gold, so's my directors would manage no complaints, lol. It ended up pretty spiffy, however, and I was even given a complimentary hand massage/snacks-- for only 10 BUCKS! Woot, woot for bargain pampering! ;) What else... The Producers is my new favorite movie, SHUT UP. XP Got pj's that look like Wendla's lil' panty-like undergarments, which kind of excites me. PS: My mom's a complete and utter SA fangirl now, which is just about both the coolest-- and most funniest thing ever! OOH! Saw HellBoy 2 today - I highly recommend it. In fact, I am MOAR than just on board for them to make a third, ok?! Lol. :P

Other than that? I just can't sleep. At all. Stick a fork in it, I am DONE, haha :) For those of you whom have taken the time to read this rest-deprived babble of a post, I thank you kindly. I love you all and now - if you'll excuse me - I'ma turn up the smooth jazz (lol, I know I'm lame) and count me some sheepies. Ha, g'night sweetsies. Peace <3

* "FAT! FAAAAT! FATTY!!! FATSO! FAAT! FAAT! YOU BIG FATTY FAT FAT FATTY FAT WALRUS, GIMME' THOSE FAT BOOKS!!" I've *officially* watched The Producers five times this week, three times in one day :) HBO On Demand, baby.

* Green gummy bears are slowly, but surely, becoming my favorite.

* Seussical is going AMAZINGLY wonderful-- we've just recently had our Act I/II off-book run-throughs and, tomorrow afternoon (2-3:30), we have our very first costume fitting (though, we Bird Girls have already had the glorious opportunity to view our outfits before hand) I'll be sure to take pictures!! PHOTO SHOOT TIME! XP

* Had spaghetti with marina and turkey meatballs for dinner. Unf-- HELLO DELICIOUSNESS.

* Been belting a lot recently, and, am extremely proud to report that my voice sounds pretty damn amazing! Tried to upload a view clips onto YouTube the other day (as well as a sketch my friend Shayla and I created on Wednesday), but the website's being a bitch. UGH. If anyone knows the answer as to why a video will upload/channel be created, and yet not show up in the search or on the profile at ALL, pretty please to be letting me know? Thanks in advance to anyone whom can help :) EDIT: Invalid file format. Must fix, lol.

* My school just might be considering Frank Wedekind's Spring Awakening for our fall production. Hjhsdvbjsdhvbhsdvdhjvb, how cool is THAT?! God... I need to brush up on the scripture! Links anyone? (Any translation is perfectly acceptable)

* I'm getting a manicure tomorrow. Huzzah. :DDD (PS: Had an ortho appointment yesterday morning. They've now attached my final tooth along the rest of the wire, slowly pulling it into place. You can safely bet that my mouth hurts like a MOTHER right now)

* Watched Jon and Lea's final about... 6 MOAR TIMES since it's arrival, lol. Full review soon to come for those whom don't have it or either were not at the performance!

* Been trying to write lately. Some drabbles have been born better than expected; others? *insert chirping crickets here* .... Ahem. :[

* Marie Antoinette was a complete and total waste of 2 hours of my life, despite the few lulz within the film.

... God. I'm just so extremely exciting, aren't I?! Lol. :)

My DVD of Lea and Jon's final night just arrived this morning.



GAAAAAHHHHH!!!
*explodes, re-pieces, then dashes off to watch!* :D




EDIT: (Just finished watching) Oh my God. Dear sweet Lord... O--oh my God. I can't-- *tries to compose* I can't... I can't even begin to describe th-- Just... I feel so blessed just to have watched the DVD, I mean-- Hliufvhuifgvuvgfygyvgfhvbhfbvilhfbvhl. AGAIN! I mean... God, ya' know: I am SUCH a woobie. I completely and utterly lost it at Martha's confession - and from then on... I just couldn't stop. At ALL. *sniffles... SOBS* If I can bare to manage an actual, coherent review tomorrow morning, I promise you all the deets on production and performance - though, may it be stated, that it was nothing short of AMAZING!

G'night, all. :)

* The Highlight of My Independence: [Hope yours was all as equally a blast as my own!] Stopping to (illegally) purchase a butt-load of fireworks on the way home from my uncle's birthday, proceeding to light them off along the alley-way of my sort-of-Grandma Jesse's house and, watching as one of our own sparklers burts into a mad fit on the concrete, my mom's boyfriend's friend finds it fit to say - sipping his beer: "... Now that's just damn pretty." Lolololololol. God... I sure do love my hick of a family, ha. X3

* Saw Wall-E today, [tried to win an iPod Nano in the arcade beforehand. Failed miserably, lol] and I just about EXPLODED from the sheer sugary-goodness of that movie! Honest to God, I loved that film to bits and pieces. UNF. I mean, so much of both story and character development was done through mere animation alone, and, if I may say so myself-- it served a bit of a friendly fore-warning. But, then again: that's just one girl's opinion, lol. Your thoughts???

* Oh my God. OH. MY. GOD. Ohmygodohmygodohmygodohmygod--- for serious, you guys. My mom may just be the most amazing person in the world. I mean, after all the garbage she's ever put me through (haha) she may be - just may be - trying to make up for it. Not ONLY is she taking me to see Mama Mia! the day before my birthday... but she's already purchased me two tickets to go and see SA in LA as a gift. Hzuvidsvgdusyvgdu-- so, this now means that, not only am I seeing it in San Fran and San Diego... but LA as well. *BURSTS FROM SHEER GLEE* I love you Mama. From the bottom of my heart, just-- sososososo much. I love you. XP

* Working on several more prompts, as well as an AMAZAZING start to Kassie and I's Hernst RP. Have fun at your academic camp, love-- but be sure to hurry back!! Lol.

* Watched Fred's new vid. *pees pants* Wait, what? (lol) Found a tank-top when shopping at some Mexican outlet down over at my mom's (FTW!). $3.99, detailed with a glittery, vintage 1940's Barbie illustration. In other words: life is pretty good right now, lolol. :D
