The ensemble can go...

Suck it. Seriously. Every time they sing something we haven't gone over in a few days, it sounds like they're singing it for the very first time. It's not even all of them! It's just a few people that bring everyone else down. It's really really sad.

But we're so close to finishing the show. We have like, one more song that doesn't require a full cast so it won't take three hours and a dance break!!!

So I'm done

I took my first and second block exams today. They were fun. We had two hours per exam (yeah one class room for two hours) and I got them both done with in the first hour. I can't believe the year is going by so fast.


I can't wait for All Shook Up shit to just be done with so we can finally have fun with the show.

I'm pissed

Yesterday, rehearsal was canceled because it snowed and the roads were icy. We all thought today's rehearsal was going to be extra busy because we only have a week left until opening night.

Rehearsal was an hour. We ran each dance twice and I was only in one of them anyway. I should have just not fucking gone and I'm really really pissed off right now. I just need a nice relaxing conversation.

...and I have exams tomorrow.

In the past two days...

There have been five fights at my school. Three of them were gang related.

Don't I feel safe?

Hi one person who's following me : )

Nerd in love.

That's pretty much the basis of what Dennis is. I need to expand on that and portray it so much better if I don't want to look stupid next to the amazing talent that surrounds me.

I have a love/hate relationship with character work

Like a river flows...

We ran Act One today. I feel like the show is going to be amazing and that is that. I'm also excited because I ordered "Dude, You're A Fag: Masculinity and Homosexuality In High School" last night. My friend recommended it to me and I can't wait.

: )

Finally, a blog with something in it!

My highlight of today was seeing Urinetown at a local Regional Theatre Group. I was amazed at the talent and professionalism in such a small cast and theater. Even though OBSP gets about 30-40 people per a show, I don't think we could ever been that great. I'm excited for the Levoy because, with different theatre companies coming to the area, I might be able to be in a show like that.

My low point of the day was the most disappointing phone call of my life. Over an hour of prepping myself for what could have been one of the best moments of my life was ruined by my awkwardness and inability to speak on the phone.

Tomorrow is All Shook Up rehearsal...for once, I'm excited. We're blocking a song that I'm in for less than 30 seconds. I think I'll spend most of my time going over lines with Andrew.

Just one kiss can send us spinning.

I heard something in the hallway today that really made me think about life and I'm pretty sure I thunk some deep thoughts.

Too bad I forget what I heard.

The moral of this story is to never play "Are you nervous" with another gay man unless you really want his body.

Willkommen.

I love John Stamos. However, I do not like staying home from school to sleep because I stayed up all night coughing.

Oh well.
