"The time soon comes for parting,
And our time is at an end,
The rest of your life is completing,
And we have no time at all to spend.
You knew one day you'd have to go,
But thought you'd have more time.
We can't reverse time's one-way flow,
But at least you'll have this rhyme.
You had your shining moments,
Upon life's darkened stage,
And in my book of wonderments,
You're more than just a page.
Like the exploding of a star,
You've changed me in and out,
Your light will travel with me far,
Past when all other lights go out."
- Megan R. Bokowski

"Farewell dark skies
Farewell unbroken silence
Farewell summer
Farewell Autumn leaves that drift by my window
Farewell sunshine
Farewell today
Farewell to the songs singing inside my heart..."
- Aldo Kraas
Goodbye, SA. No amount of words can even dare to express my love and passion for such an electrically beautiful production, as well as those fans just as infinitely the same. You have (for the past 2 years) served as the epitome of my love of the stage and it's majesty, and I have absolutely no idea where I would be without the discovery of your thundering bass and poetic verse. God bless each and every cast member, their families; your talent and your charity were never taken unappreciated. You changed and defined so very much of who I am, and for that, I give eternal thanks. Each and every word of which you spoke and enlightened upon is treasured, and each tear I weep is pure, unadulterated remorse. A piece of my heart shall always belong to the glory of the spring and the song of purple summer. I believe in hope. I believe in love. I believe in loss.
I believe in Spring Awakening.
Farewell... and endless congratulations on your previous success.

LIFE.
It's killing me.
Week before finals week... CETA (The California Educational Theatre Association) festival/Master classes this entire weekend... AP Music Theory garbage... Spring Awakening's Sunday closing... sickness (cough, exhaustion, congestion, etc. etc)... reviewreviewreview... PMS... costume committee [1950's] research... obvious procrastination... feeling like being a moany bitch, haha.
Blarrrrrrrrggg.
I'm just... so-- ACKSDIUHFMNVJXHD this week. *shrugs* I don't think my energy has ever hit this much of a low before... and I'm not even all too sure why. Hmm. On the upside - however - my missing belt (and I mean VOCAL-wise, not pantaloon-wise, lol) has finally returned after approx. 2 days!! :D THHHHAAAAT, and boys have been strangely lovely towards me lately. One even walked me home today, which... well, never happens.
EVER.
Haha.

**I apologize GREATLY in advance for the following vent, for auditions have yet to prove themselves a friend to me recently.
I didn't get my solo for Spring Concert. All of my friends (whom did try out, of course) received their's...
All - except for ME.
... I truly thought I had deserved it. And I'm tired of those who don't accepting them...! Though, perhaps I just wasn't right for this production; true-- I'm utterly glad for all of my buds whom are getting the chance to perform for the first/second time, considering that I had had my own piece during our Winter Concert. It's just--... UGH.
It's still disappointing. Especially when those around you don't care to acknowledge - wrapped up madly within their own contentment - the concept of tears pouring down your face [And yet I KNOW they'd feel the same]. (Yes, I cried. I felt the right to be a bit upset) Indeed, this shall be yet another humbling experience for me and I expect to learn a great deal from said experience; honestly... I don't mean to bitch and moan! I never meant to snap... It merely puts oneself into a dreadful, BEATING sort of mind-set, and-- It just, for lack of a better word, SUCKS. Majorly.
... But you know what? Our Cappies Acomendee/Nominee Ceremony took place this evening (just 2 weeks before the official gala). And you know WHAT?!
I GOT A MEDAL.
Stick that in your pipe and smoke it, ya'll. XD

Truly - D.C. was wonderful, but... I'm a bit too torn up at the moment to recall any memorial events.
Sunday was Jon and Lea's last day in Spring Awakening.
Dear Lord: May they move onto even bigger, better, and brighter things. May they open the eyes of millions once again in whatever they next pursue, and may their presence ever grace that of the stage of the Eugene O'Neill Theatre, however long gone. May they bear eternal happiness, and may Alexandra FUCKING Socha not kill such a wonderous, electric production with her wretched awfulness.
Amen.
PS: I would KILL (Socha, preferably) for any footage of their last night. I've seen several (all) of the videos posted on YouTube and I know of a few audios floating around, but if ANYONE KNOWS OF ANY VIDEO RECORDINGS: PLEASE let me know!

1. Choir Audition: I... I dunno', I sort of d-don't really wanna'... get into it. Let's just say - it was quite obvious I was sick. (I continuously had to stop and cough between warm-ups, I had NO proper control over my breathing whatsoever... though my head voice was a tad ok) I'm hoping to speak to Mr. Hedgecock about it tomorrow and, if I can't manage to get a second chance, I'm hoping he'll at least understand my current situation and take into part my previous performances in both the class and concert... again - wish me luck. :[
2. Geometry: Lots, and LOTS of make-up work, a power-point project-- just... BARF.
3. Comedy/Improv was canceled. AGAIN. Ugh...
Unfortunately, said events caused major frustration, and said frustration caused a lil' bit of a breakdown. I know it seems silly of me to be so upset by such a simple audition (considering I wish to enter a business where rejection is a HUGE part of the reality), but... this is something I want to do for the rest of my life, and being a part of Vocal Ensemble would only both further and better my training! It's just... I don't know. It's hard at times, however much I try and convince myself that - truly - it isn't. But... I do feel a hell of a lot better after venting to both my friends and family, and I pray to every God in folklore that Mr. Hedgecock will take SOME sort of pity on me.
Though - lunch was hysterical, as always! XD
ALYSSA: (talking about her recent Spring Break in Ireland) We had all kinds of Irish animal friends that we named. We saw a reindeer and named him Pumpkin. We found a cat, took him in and named him Starbreeze. Snowflake - the baby cow, Marshmellow - the baby bird--
KAYLEIGH: Why wouldn't you name a sheep Marshmellow?
ALYSSA: Because the sheep's name was Skippy!!

ME: Marisa, may I please have a tater tot?
MARISA: (gesturing towards her tray) Sure.
ME: Well, I'm sick so... could you please pick one out for me and drop it in my hand?
MARISA: (doing so)
ME: (Popping it into my mouth and smiling) OWM (- weird food eating noise) - Thank you!
(Suddenly, Kayleigh and Laur burst out laughing)
MARISA: (raising an eyebrow) Umm... are you guys ok?
KAYLEIGH: We're laughing because Angela is funny.
ME: (grins through tater tot, causing the two to laugh even harder)
Hells to the yeah for funnies! Lol. (PS: Dinner was purdy good: sandwich wraps and home-made, low salt french fries. Can you say "yum"?! I can say "yum". YUM)
*Sigh* Well... again - if you could wish me your kindest words for a second hope, I'd really appreciate it. Thank you all so much for taking the time to listen. I pray tomorrow is a better day...

Although, I did manage to squeeze out some creative juices and write a story yesterday. It's the first part of many; I saw Enchanted on Saturday night and was inspired! (BEST DISNEY MOVIE EVER!!! Giselle is TOTALLY my new favorite princess!) :D Check it out on my DeviantArt account if you get the chance - it's called, "When You Wish Upon A Penny 1"...
And now, if you'll e-excuse me... *Cough, cough, cough, COUGH!!!! Boooooooo... again...*
