Moushi! Moushi! Moushi!

The last three days have been so much fun!

Wednesday: Opening Night!! The whole cast had so much energy and the audience was amazing. They started to cat call and go "oooooo" when Oscar and I did the date seen. Two times I got an applause for that scene. Yay! Every one did a wonderful job wonderful! I was so incredibly nervous before we went on I was convinced I was going to pee in my pants. (I didn't)

Thursday: The biggest deal about today was I was called a "baller." One of the girls on the basket ball team (you know the ones that never talk to you unless they want something...) told me I did excellent and that I was a "baller" I have never been called a baller before it was rather exciting. The play was OK. Not great. Kristin calls it the Thursday syndrome. Steph said it was the audience. Oscar said it was because we had no energy. I'm not sure what it is but I will agree it wasn't our best performance. Thales came and managed to hurt Steph and I's feelings, with his look of "I'm way to good for this even though I don't do it and I'm an asshole" type of looks. Then preceded to tell us that the only worth while part about the play was when Kyle yells in German off stage. He then admitted that he lied when he said he wasn't going to come earlier. oooooo I hate lies! oh well. After the play I went to sleep and I here what I thought was my dads voice. But I tell myself logically it can't be him. I must be going crazy. If I were really going crazy I wouldn't think I was going crazy. Sure enough it was my dad! He came to see my play!!

Friday: I was once again sooooooo nervous. I think I did well. Everyone clapped again at the date scene. That made me so happy. I got a standing elevation. ( I know I know its only a St. Mikes drama play...) Mrs. Roybal said before the play that "The Diary of Anne Frank" was her first play and she played Anne Frank I was so excited that she gave the part to me, because I know it holds a special place in her heart. I did well. Nick came and told me I did wonderful. I asked him "really? truly?" To ensure he wasn't lying. He seemed genuine (Although I know he couldn't possibly have been impressed...but I almost believed he was.) Sarah told me that it was creepy how much I could turn into Anne Frank...she wondered what happened to Alex. After the play we had the cast party! Mrs. Roybal gave me and all the girls a bracelet and earrings. It was really nice. I thanked her for giving me that part. She told me I was perfect for it. I wanted to cry I was so happy.

The cast party number one: We had this one in the auditorium for all the little junior high people. Mrs. Roybal gave me the red beret, she gave Jess the pink pajamas, she gave Steph the pretty flower dress, and she gave Oscar Moushi (the stuffed cat). He pretended to not really like it, but he did. Jessica and I laughed over him and that cat for a good 2 hours. We ate pizza and had a blast.

The cast party number two: It was a secret we didn't want the junior high kids to come (except Sam he's cool). So we went to Mark Dennison's house. We are rather bad at keeping secrets. " I don't know how to get home" "Can you give me a ride to your house?" things like that were said. There we saw Sarah Dennison. Nice Girl. Oscar and I planned to scar Kyle...it didn't really work. Then I had to leave. Jess, Oscar and I all left at the same.

Now that It is all over I feel like a part of me is missing. I miss Anne (as stupid as that sounds) I haven't decided what I am going to do with the 3 hours of my life back everyday. I will figure something out.

Thanks everyone on the cast. Jess, Steph, David, Oscar, Peter, Kyle, Marj, Kristin, Mark, I love you all!! You are some of the most talented people I have ever been with in my life. I believed you all so much I had the heart breaking realization last night that Kristin is not my mother and Steph is not my sister. I had the huge disappointment that I don't really hate Kyle and that Oscar is not my boy friend. I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!!!!!! I cannot wait until the next drama play!!
