Awww, that's sad. 
It must be depressing to take a light, fun role because you want to make people laugh, and the audience ends up not being into it. I doubt it's his fault at all, but I can see why he's excited about moving on.

Well, like he said about Taboo -- the people in the front were always there, and sometimes they were thought a little bit silly, but they were giving the show moral and financial support, and were there to give the actors love and interaction. So, even if he's like "why would you want to see me or this show 34983749837 times?" he knows that you're there to support him.
(That's why I'm kind of glad that Adam hasn't been in a show for a while now -- I can go see him often, but I don't look like I have no life *whatsoever* because seeing him doesn't mean I see the same show every week. 
Not that I wouldn't if he was in one, but, you know.)
Good night for real now. Feel better, g!

That's why I'm glad I don't live there right now. I go see the show every two or three weeks. So I'm forced to take a break. :)
Off I go.

Wow. As a performer, I never realized how similar I am to Raul in so many ways. He has a gift for delivering a song. He's a better actor than singer, anyday. And I'm the same way, by default. I never inteded to be a great actress. It just comes easy for me. I know how to take a stage. The singing is what I love most, and has and probably never will come easy for me. One of life's little jests, I suppose. Now I've just gotta figure out how to get his crazy mad work ethics. I'm really not trying to be smart or proud here. I just know how awesome it's going to be when I get a chance to perform with him. We both have this rediculous intensity. Maybe that's why I'm so drawn to him. I also have this sneaking suspician that working with him is probably gonna make me want to break both of his legs, and he will probably want to break mine as well. But, we will tear that stage up when the time comes. ...and Ang will be there to apply his body paint! LOL

Always. No brush necessary.
Oh Chrys, I can't come tonight. I have a psych study group from 6:20-8:20. Sorry. I would have loved to. I hope you have a good time.
Ok, off to class.
#9105a complex fellow
Posted: 12/8/05 at 9:48amDon't break his legs. I'd be sad. (Even though I think that's probably true. You'd probably want to kill him.)

I'm sick. Like really sick, but I won't get into the gross details.
I'm supposed to be turning in an 8-page paper in 15 minutes but this is the first time I've been able to sit up at my computer since last night, so clearly that's not done. I'm just terrified that my professor won't understand.
Just to be on topic, my spring break is March 13-19. Definitely not "spring-like" up here, I can go see Company, so I'm not complaining about that.

Posted: 12/8/05 at 10:54ameek. Feel better! Explain to professor how sick you are. Get graphic if you need to.
#9108a complex fellow
Posted: 12/8/05 at 11:05amOh, I intend to be as graphic as necessary.

Posted: 12/8/05 at 11:57amIt's like the time I missed a Spanish test because I couldn't move, and I told my professor that I *literally* was in too much pain to move.

Speaking of Spanish, I'm currently watching the Bolivian production of Rent.
I highly recommend it for a good laugh

hahaha. I think I've seen that before.
I can't believe how much I'm procrastinating.

I love procrastination!
I agree that he would be miserable to work with. I've actually heard people at the theatre talking about it. They say you can tell when he doesn't want to be bothered. He makes it obvious.

Eeep! I hope everyone feels better!
I think that if I ever got the chance to work with Raul (which is never gonna happen, by the way)I would be scared to move at times, for fear of upsetting him. But that's not necessarily a bad thing. I could just sit there and...watch him.
Wishes come true, not free.

Of course you do.
