SO helpful! Thank you! And I only need around 5, so all the rest of you are off the hook.

So I just got back from my FIVE HOUR LONG callback for The Man Who Came to Dinner. I got callbacks for five different roles; the two leads and three supporting roles. I can't tell you how many scenes I read. But it was so much fun! And I'm not gonna lie, I did a bomb ass job! I even have a chance at the lead role!
So near the end, I was the only girl left and was requested to read extra scenes to help out the guys. One of the scenes is Ms. Preen being carried on by a crazy guy and the guy confesses his love. So my friend Chris says "Claire, just go with me on this." He confesses his love and then starts to make out with me on stage! Then he throws me over his shoulder and slaps my butt! So hilarious! I can't believe I stayed in character! Gah! Today was good except for the fact that it's 9:30pm and I still have a history and english paper to write along with chemistry, algebra, and honors french homework to do. Boo.

It has nothing to do with theater at all. It has to do with seeing what is familiar.... I don't think the theatre will die per se, but it's never going to be what it was.... It's a tourist attraction." Stephen Sondheim

Congrats Schmerg. Glad to know somebody got some good news today.
To cap off this week of hell on Earth for yours truly, I was placed on the waiting list for the term abroad in Ireland. Lots of crying on the pillow this week. There is a slight chance I could slide in but I do not see how it is possible. I am #5 on the waiting list working against a group of ten, meaning half would have something better to do than go to Galway.

Thanks Stock, I was not expecting to get in but this week has been so terrible it was as if this was all some dirty plot cooked up by either the devil himself or a plot in a Coen Brothers film.

Posted: 2/15/10 at 10:07pmSince I'm bitter, I forked the lawn of this guy I like who already has a girlfriend. Four-hundred plastic forks stuck in his lawn at 3AM. Happy f*cking Valentine's Day!

Posted: 2/15/10 at 11:14pmI've never heard of forking someone's lawn. That's actually sort of funny.
KFTC!!!!!

Posted: 2/15/10 at 11:29pmThat is as vicious & quirky a way as any to get Valentine's Day revenge!

Posted: 2/15/10 at 11:48pmYou should have left your mark by playing Alanis Morrisette's 'You Oughta Know' on full volume as you exited the forked up lawn.

JAG, I'm chalk full of crazy ideas for causing all sorts of trouble and shaking up life...or someone else's life.
I'm tempted to go up to him at lunch and ask "Hey, do you have a fork? Wait, never mind." and pull out a box of forks.

strummergirl, I was thinking "You Belong With Me" by Taylor Swift.
As I always said, don't get mad, get revenge.

That forking idea is hilarious!It'd be so embarrassing if you were caught, though... how would you explain yourself?
I wrote love letters to like fifty people for Valentine's Day. I had people on my facebook give me the names of fictional characters and sent them Valentines from those characters... it basically took all Valentine's Day and the next day to do it, but it was so funny to do. There were some really weird ones in there, like one from Ariel the Little Mermaid to Mushu the dragon, and one from Joan of Arc.

Okay ladies, I have to tell you about the hilariousness that was Friday. So a friend from high school was throwing a party that night so she met me at school and said that we were just waiting for her roommate and, get this, my guy! So we all piled into the car and headed out to the house to help set up. Well, as we were setting up there were a couple of *interesting* moments..... first my friends skanky (other) roommate started hitting on C right in front of me (while I had a knife in my hand) and he just kinda brushed her off and said that he didn't have time for "BS and messing around". I was like, whatever, and went back to cutting veggies... all of the sudden he starts humming and I instantly recognize the song as Lady Antebellum's Need You Now, which I love! I simply say "I love that song." and he responds with "Yeah, it's been running through my head lately."
And then the power went out.
The power stayed out until, like, midnight. My friend decided that it would be fun to play pairs hide-and-seek in the dark.... well guess who I got paired with? :-P And we WON! I went to give him a high five and got a huge hug instead (the first blatant physical contact since.... well, you know). The rest of the night was spent playing more silly games (including a way too competitive game of Mafia)
Best night I have had in a long time

Ahhhhh! I just got two pieces of awesomely good news!!!
1) Me and the boy are going to do a duet in choir again... I can honestly say that this has very little to do with the fact that I like him- he is really one of the most talented singers I know, so I am pumped!
2) and now for some BIG news.... I am taking over as the director of the LACS Musical next year AND I am getting PAID for it!!! It's a real official job! I will have full creative control of the show, and I already have an awesome assistant director!! Booya!

Posted: 2/16/10 at 2:47pmAw, Kels! Great news! I'm glad to hear things are starting to look up. What show do you think you'll do?
#4746happiness :D
Posted: 2/16/10 at 2:55pmUmm, I think my top choice is Kiss Me Kate.... but I need to come up with some good back ups incase that doesn't go over well!

KELS. That is so darn cool! Congratulations!
Let's see... my life... um... I had my Fiddler on the Roof auditions today for the role of Fruma-Sarah. Fiddler on the Roof was the first show I ever saw and the one that made me want to do theatre, and I've wanted to be Fruma-Sarah or Yente ever since I was seven... so it's kind of a big-deal audition. I think it went pretty well, especially since my chorus teacher said, "Wow, that was awesome" after my audition (to my face), but the OTHER girl in my theatre department who gets all the crazy scary roles is also trying out for Fruma-Sarah, so I feel like between the two of us, she'll probably get it.
Also, two of my friends told me they really liked me. But they're both much older than me, so I don't really want to get into that...
