Hey poodles! Monkey, how did your Mme.TN audition go?
Ellie, are you still on drugs?
Is anyone else still around? Oh poo, if Bonsing, insomniak, b_s_t (I miss you!), camerangel and my guido were still around, we'd have a real party tonight. (And where's CQ?)

Leave my druggie tendencies out of this please, Tiff. It's a hobby - now leave me be. *snort* *sniffs wildly*
New Year's Eve was hellish for me. I spent it in a freezing wattle and daub shack near Lake Erie, with my boozed up sister and her even more boozed up friends. As we counted down to midnight, I could see fireworks going off way in the distance...oh, how I longed to be there. I'm still not home, but I have found a computer, even if it is from 503 AD.
Didja miss me? No? Oh well....*snort*

Ellie!!! I did miss you and I'm sorry your New Years sucked. At least it's over.
Tiff, I feel so flattered to be remembered. Monkey, you had your audtion?
I actually don't know if Monkey had her audition yet - I just noticed she's had that signature for a while.
Ellie, why a shack? Why? How much did you drink? Why Lake Erie? (Where are you from again?) Pass the cocaine, sweetheart.
Som, oh, did I remember you? Don't let it go to your head. It was a slip-up on my part. My master plan is to eventually phase you out of this thread, then out of the OT board, then out of BWW altogether. Until then...

Tiff hon, master plans don't go anywhere without a master following and I don't think anyone here wants to get rid of the lifeblood of the Angsty Teens...
Ellie, you should have driven south a bit and hung out with me instead. Aren't you in Conneticut, though?
Coke? Who brought that?
No, I haven't had the audition yet. Probably late Jan or early Feb. I just was so durn excited, I had to put it up early.

Hi Nia!!!!!!! Don't worry, I won't let Tiff get rid of you! (As if she has that kind of power...delusional, or what?)
*passes Tiff some foil with a powdery treat inside*
Well, shack maybe too cruel. My sister kept calling it a 'lodge'. But shack is more descriptive, trust me. And it was fffreeezinggggg.
Are there are any changes between the Bway version and the high school versions in terms of the songs, the characters, etc., Monkey? I've only seen LM the one time in November, and it seems too gigantic to have a high school do justice to it, but what hte hell do I know. Mme.TN is a fun part!
Sommie. Pookie. Poor, dellusional Ak. Lifeblood? PAH. More like the paralysis. But potato, potahto, oui?

Well, those kind of treats do tend to cause delusions, Ellie. It's your fault. What is your avatar from, I've always wondered. Did you paint it?
I was in a lodge too, but it sounds like it was better than where you were.
Broadway Legend Joined: 9/20/04
No, I didn't paint my icon - it's Salvador Dali. Although when I do paint, it's quite similar in style. It may be weird, but hey, I like it - and no one can tell when you make a mistake!
And yeah, Connecticut, but my sis's friend had access to a 'holiday home'...so I was dragged along.
Broadway Legend Joined: 5/7/04
You paint? Nifty! Can we see some pictures? I'm starting to kinda pick it up.
Why couldn't you stay home?
Broadway Legend Joined: 9/20/04
Painting rocks!!! Be splashy, be bold, be colorful, be weird, be bright, be whatever...but don't be dull!
I suppose I could have stayed at home, but I thought maybe I'll have a good time, maybe it'll be a nice place, maybe it'll have heating...
and I'd nothing else planned, so meh.
However, never again. My sister and her friends are older than me too, so I thought maybe I'd be pampered and spoiled a bit, but no.

I'm sorry. It's wierd how that works out- I went out on New Year's anticipating a horrible time but wound up having fun. Do you have photos of your paintings? I'm curious. What kind of things do you do?
Broadway Legend Joined: 9/20/04
I don't have any photos, really. But they're easily gotten I suppose. I do very colorful paintings, in a kind of pschycedelic pattern usually. I'm not really sure if they have artistic merit, but they're fun to look at, and brighten up walls! My paintings are odd, but I like them. I hate the idea of painting fruitbowls and flowers and stuff like that...I just go wild. What kind of thing to you see yourself doing?
Ah yes, now the SH*T hit's the fan with my dad and me, and it looks like I'm one snarky comment from being kicked out of the house. He just finished screaming at me over me saying that he screamed at me. Father = Nazi. He actually told me that as long as I live under his roof, he can say whatever he wants to me, however he wants, and he can treat me however he wants, and it's my daughterly obligation to put up with it. I'm not even saying that's what he IMPLIED. That's what he SAID.
*furious right now*

So understand, Tiff!
I recently had a row with my Dad along the same lines...
'You're 18 now, you're an adult...move out, or shut up'
<-- Seriously considering forgoing law school to get full time job and move out.
We've had a horrible relationship for as long as I can remember. But I think now that I'm in my 20s and can think for myself and have had a dose of adulthood, it's harder and harder for me to abide by someone else's rules. He's one of those "traditional" Asian fathers - you know, focus on school, study all the time, go into a professional faculty, and most importantly, remember that I am forever indebted to my parents until I'm in my grave.
He also proceeded to tell me that he's made up his mind to accept that he would rather take his own life than live under my roof when he's an old geezer, and asked me how I like that - that my own father would rather kill himself than rely on me to care for him on a daily basis. I think, well, heck, if his attitude is that anyone dependent on someone is at their mercy and has to accept how they're treated, then I'd be damn scared of karma coming back to him too.

Tiff, DO NOT SKIP LAW SCHOOL.
Please.
I don't know what to say about your dad.

What Nia said.
And much sympathy, good vibes and happy thoughts...
I know Nia, I know. I still can't let go of my dream of me in hot powersuits and stilettos. Oh, and helping people and all that crap. But I graduate in April and if I put myself through law school, that's another 3 years I'm looking at of living under their roof. I already pay all of my tuition, and my share of the bills and rent, but they still cook most of the time and such, so I'm still reliant on them to an extent. I don't think I can take it much longer.
Fascinating, oui, ckeaton?
Maybe I should haul out the Angst thread.

Tiff-o, neva fear. I am here, for now. I was in New York from 25th of dec to the 1st of Jan. I saw four shows:
bklyn

seats: BKLYN- third row from the back in the center orch, but that was good because we didn't get sprayed by Edens spit and her belting
PRoducers- four rows from back, orch, center. A crap load of tall people sat infront of me so... i moved to a single seat in the fifth row!!! amazing!
pacific overtures- second row balc, center. AWESOME
white chocolate- small theater so any seat was good.
all the shows were great, bklyn was passable. But if you have not seen Pacific Overtures- SEE IT! same with White Chocolate- i swear you will laugh so hard you'll crap your pants.
