"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.

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. :)

* Vanessa Anne Hudgens: I'm only allowing myself to state this once, and ONLY ONCE-- Get. Some. Help. Truth be told, sweetheart... you like a drugee in your new video. And, honestly, I mean - "Sneakernight"?!! Please.
* Jonathan Groff (as well as the entire cast of this summer's revival of Hair) displayed in Vogue. He is such an adorable goober. And I love him immensely for it. XD <3
* June 17th = My lil' bro's 9th birthday. Went to Dave & Buster's on Saturday in celebration. Both aunt and Mama got into a heated debate over gay marital rights-- my mother, however, voiced that I was "too young to have an opinion on the matter". *insert obscene gesture here* Won the Jackpot. TWICE. (1,000 on "The Big Spin" and 400 on Deal or No Deal). Considering I never win ANYTHING: FTW!!
* Watched Jesschior once again, only along with my mother this time. (Review soon to come, I swear it!!) ROFL-- I find it fit to mention that she found Socha as equally ridiculous as both myself and the majority of others. XD
* I need to work out. For serious. *Uuuuuuuugh*
* Seussical rehearsal was filled with absolutely nothing short of complete and total AMAZING-NESS!! We laughed, we bashed-- though all in good fun! XP
* I wanna' be a part of the SA San Diego street team so immensely, it's driving me up the wall!! Unfortunately, I have rehearsal this Saturday, and cannot attend the first official meeting. If anyone DOES end up going, I'd love you for all eternity if you managed to pick me up/sign me up for any handouts/freebies/information. I'd be MOAR than willing to pay for shipping!! If not, it's nothing to worry about. Just a mere request. (Email: gjgto1@aol.com)
* My voice sounds surprisingly fabulous lately. :D
* I have an ortho. appointment on Thursday. Hoo-rah.
* Lol, I'm rambling now!! Have a good night everyone... and please forgive me for the lack of energy in my most recent posts. In all honesty: I'M DRAINED. The end

As recommended by Mrs. Klein, a large group of her best - and varied - theater students (me and Amanda included) were selected to participate in several afternoon workshops yesterday-- with that of future candidates for the position of our new drama teacher! **One of which was a current Children's Rep. Theater director...
From 2:00-5:00, each workshop being thirty minutes long, we met with four different men (YES) applying for the job; after spending both seat and stage time, working through exercises of both relaxation and trust (to "break up the cliques" as our first, and my favorite, instructor had stated), we students each received an individual review sheet in which to rate the applicants. Number ranked and based entirely through opinion, we chose - from highest (5) to lowest (1) - whom we thought did the best in the following categories, such as: connect-ability, challenge, professionalism, safety, environment, etc. My hopes go out to Mr. McLoy!! Whut, whut. XD
STRANGE: As we checked in for role with current Thespian Club historian Loralee, (YES, that's one word) Amanda and I noticed that we were listed under Theater 3 for next year (adv. placement). Now, forgive me if I'm wrong but-- she didn't even have us audition. She was supposed to... not that I'm complaining; I hadn't even LOOKED at my dramatic monoloug the past, oh - I dunno'... 3 MONTHS! Lol. Just-- wow, I guess she really, REALLY loves us then! XP
Saw Indiana Jones Saturday. LOVED. IT. Though, I have to say-- Indy has officially jumped the shark with this one. No joke. Still, it was fantastic. I didn't realize it'd been so long since I'd seen such a good action movie!!
Watched Jesschior with me mum last night. Full review to come soon. (As will a full telling of D.C.) Soon to be ordering my DVD of Jon and Lea's final night!! *SQUEE*
Got the WiiFit. ULTIMATE COOL. (At only 104 pounds, 18.2% of my body weight is fat. Huh. I guess you learn something new every day!)
Spring Concert = this Friday, and Mr. Hedgecock STILL hasn't bothered to post the soloist/small ensemble list!!! UGH. Ah, well... I'm hoping it'll be up by tomorrow. Ummm... other than that, my life has been relatively boring as of late. If something interesting happens to strike me - like... l-lightning... or a bus, etc. - I'll be sure to report. Lol.

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!
