Back in the day when we were so young and full of hope, and Wicked didn't cause us to cringe in fear and head for the horizons...

Wow! Very nice job! I was actually referring to Nard, but it's nice to have a "Hi" in my second language. Annyong ha saeyo to you too!

[movieinmymind]

Posted: 8/10/05 at 1:21am

welcome! 3 of my friends are korean, and all they do is talk, talk, talk, making up conspiracies against the rest of us cuz they know we have no idea what they're saying! lol

and, isn't Annyong a type of respect for someone older? cuz, my friend always calls my other friend, "anyo"

lol yep, Jamie, Catherine learned it from you, it was HILARIOUS.

[Aigoo]

Posted: 8/10/05 at 1:29am

Annyonghasaeyo/Annyongha shimmnika is sort of like..a more formal greeting for adults/business interviews/when you first meet someone. Sort of a more respectful greeting. Sort of like, Hello, nice to meet you.

Annyong is a much more informal greeting. Usually used with your buddies. Like..Hi.


So it's really like Hello VS Hi, except with a much finer line.

And I LOVE making up conspiracies against my non-Korean speaking friends. How FUN. And they'll tell you that I just break out in random nonsense Korean when I'm frustrated, too. People sort of...stare.

I used to curse using British slang and nobody knew what I meant. All my friends caught on and now everybody knows what I'm saying. lol.

[movieinmymind]

Posted: 8/10/05 at 1:32am

lol, aigoo! well, conspiracies are fun! too bad none of my friends speak my language. plus, everybody has those Ricky Ricardo moments!

Liz, that is so cool! haha. was there any other hilarious part of the convo (probably involving nunga-nungas) that i missed?

Good morning everyone. My "crazy Hungarian Cold" (as you said it) seems over.

"The worse part is the only cure is borscht!"
No Cat, although I like beetroot (only as a pickled vegetable) my medicine was two soups: goulash and chicken soup.

And what a heck all these Andrew avatar?...Yeah, right, look who's talking. I think I'll change mine, but just because I am tired of looking at me everytime I post

I'll be here for both cam, till it starts I'll make a wallpaper for you...and Greg...and the non-performing John

OH MY GOD.

Okay, I planned on introducing this post with a joke mentioning how much I'd like to meet Gerard Butler, we should all want to, there'll be times, etc. b/c of what was briefly mentioned yesterday and what I said, but after reading these posts today...forget it. This is....weird.

So yeah...another fun day in the city. Hung with my friend who's leaving and we said bye. He was supposed to see Forbidden Broadway with me tonight but he had to do a portfolio or something, the bum, so I was on my own. Lost both Wicked and Q lottos, ended up at I Love You, You're Perfect Now Change which I liked a lot but this is not at all the point...

On my way from Wicked lotto to Q lotto(well there was a jamba juice break, again I digress) I decide to walk down 46th street to purposely pass the DRS stage door. The only reason in particular I was thinking of that was if some miracle I could catch Joanna. So I pass the stage door, don't see much, walk a few steps...and...who was on his cell phone right in front of the theatre but...ANDREW ASNES!

Yeah now you know why this is....weird. So I was like OMG! But like I said he was on a phone so I certainly wasn't going to interrupt his phone call, so I just hoped he would hang up before he went in. He was on a good 10 minutes I think, eating, came over to the garbage I was standing near to throw food out(I didn't wanna seem like a stage door whore who wanted to see stars walk in, I don't think I qualify if I'm waiting to talk to an ensemble member).

Anyway, he gets off and begins to walk in so I just kinda was like Andrew! and he turns around and I was like..I owe you an apology, I gave Greg the pencil that was used in your murder the other day...he laughed pretty hard, I was proud to make them both laugh with that comment(I e-mailed Greg asking him if I should contact a lawyer for providing the murder weapon).

And great story...he told me it actually all started(him being in Greg's dressing room) was when his...foot/ankle(?-don't quite remember) was injured and Greg's room is on the first floor and the ensemble's was all the way up so he went to Greg's room during the intermission to spare him the walking--and that's where/why the madness started. Funny how things like that work out.

Don't think much else was said...I really gotta start paying more attention and remembering things like this better...I know I thanked him for being so entertaining...and mentioned managing the softball team...and you know he asked my name and we shook...and then I think he had to go in. If I'm missing anything, don't think it's that important.

But I feel bad now! I was thinking of saying something on behalf of Gav or Jamie or some of you, b/c I knew there were things you would have wanted me to say, but I didn't know what! And I come back to read so many posts of I'd tell him this..I'm sorry!

Ohh, and then I passed Jeremy(swing/softball player) who said hi and I decided I'm either like kinda in with some of the DRS insiders, or a DRS whore...maybe insider is a better term..

Ooh another important part, again feels more ironic with all these great posts for him. There WAS a stage door whore there when I walked past, you know, someone waiting for them to go in. Anyway, as I was talking to Andrew, she randomly came up and interrupted and was like...Hi I'm sorry, I probably sound really stupid, but who are you in the show? And he kinda paused and said something like...oh, I'm just in the ensemble, sing and dance, and have a couple of lines. And she said well that's more than I could do and walked away. I dunno it kind of pissed me off, at the very least if you don't know who someone is, I would come up and be like you're great in the show and then whisper who was that? Then at least you don't make them feel...I dunno.

The bigger point is the way he responded...just in the ensemble, sounded like I'm nobody important, etc. I wanted to hug him, I felt really bad. Again ironic, with all the love he's getting here, but it really made me think about ensemble members. I think I was right when I said they walk quickly b/c they don't expect to get recognized. They really do deserve as much credit as anyone and to the best that I can I'm gonna do a lot more to recognize ensemble members. The only problem is it is hard to recognize them...I could ask everyone who comes out that I don't recognize if they were in the ensemble...might get weird...I dunno, but it makes me sad if that's how they view themselves, you know? I dunno just made me think.

So yeah again with all the posts today...it was just...wow. Like I said, if I was looking for anyone it was Joanna, didn't even think of him. He's really nice though, as I'm sure we'd expect.

And to keep this more ontopic...I passed the stage door after the show, it was on the way to my car, saw what was going on...when Greg came out he saw someone who he was really happy to see and hugged her but then started signing, posing, etc. Went fast for him but still did everything and when he was done even loudly said did anyone else want anything signed before he went to talk to his friend, when you're in a rush, I dunno, he's so sweet.

Meh...I really think I am becoming a DRS whore...it was on TKTS for 50% and I had to fight myself to follow through and see I love you for the first time and not DRS for the 7th time...oy.

Now if everyone wants to start talking about how great Gerard Butler his and how we all want to meet him, etc, who knows, maybe I'll catch him too One can only dream...

yup. i haven't been a good girl lately. (been going to bed at 3am, and waking up at 1pm, just in time to eat breakfast and catch the webcam) lol, guess you can call me nocturnal!

wrq! You have the best luck. Backstage with Greg, and now meeting Andrew?! That's definitely awesome. I am very jealous!

[movieinmymind]

Posted: 8/10/05 at 1:58am

AHHH! WICKEDRENTQ! YOU ARE SOOOOOO LUCKY!

first off, thank you SO MUCH for thinking of me while you were in the presence of my bdway ensemble god.(and this wasn't the first time! you thought of me when you were talking to sara! and i <3 you for that!) ah! i can't believe it! i'm SHIVERING, knowing that somebody here actually got to TALK to him! ah, was he surprised that somebody recognized him!?

oh man, oh man, oh man! next time i go to the city, i will have to wait by the stage door! lol. however, i dunno how THAT'll work, considering that i'll be watching LITP on wednesday, which ends at the same time as DRS.

wickedrentq, don't shower tonight. or, tomorrow morning. (whenever it is that you do!) let the day sink in and never escape! lol!!
