Amen, Fredi. You can love a friend without LIKING everything- that's impossible to do. Everyone has flaws and you just have to decide how much they mean to you.

re - the costumes..
in the downtown show - most of the costume pieces were our own property..
i think adam kept his jacket for bway.. if not - it was duplicated exactly - like mimi's pants...
re - the tidal waves --
all the more reason for us to get on with our greatness
appreciate all the wonderful things life has to offer
and stop spending precious time and energy angsting over BULLSH*T! (no **'s - this is too important...)
sing it with me children..
There's only now....

Damn. No tommorrow? Guess I don't need to do that Spanish project after all.
It would be nifty if Anthony posted here, but it's unlikely.
Adam's jacket was super awesome. Unfourtunately, his fashion sense is usually more... senseless.

many think it's "just a song"
i know it to be much more than that...
don't just sing it-
UNDERSTAND IT AND LIVE IT!!!
Your lives will be all the richer...
(though i think many of you have a good grip on this stuff already)

I accept myself the way I am, and frankly I think I might be the only one who does.. I dont like everything about myself and I try to change it.. But only for me.. I miss my size 5 jeans.. not that I care what anyone else thinks of me, I dont need their approval or acceptance to make me whole. I stopped trying to please others a long time ago.. I learned after Mark it wasn't worth it.. I was maybe 130 pounds soaking wet, and he would tell me I needed to lose atleast 30 pounds, cut my hair bleach it blonde blonde ( even though it was already a dark blonde naturally) nothing was ever good enough for him.. One day I woke up and realized I deserve better than this jerk who alienated me from my friends and treated me like a possesion. I vowed then that I wouldn't tolerate that.. I was 19 and I was worth a damn! I dont need a man to validate me as a person.. that eventually evolved into the philosophy of this is me if you like it fine if not go away attitude I have. And that is why I am single.. I will not change to please someone else..

They just had this thing about Jerry Orbach on TV. And BSo, I thought he was in the original also..
And I agree with Fredi..

I think Finale B (or, well, Life Support) and LVB really nailed it on the head.
BTW, folks, don't forget to give post 10,000 to Fredi! So if we're at around post 9,997 or so - STOP writing! Let Fredi talk to herself for a bit and hit 10,000 with a humdinger and a SH*Tload of emoticons, no doubt!)

Live every day as your last and leave no loose ends and you won't have regrets to forget.
Cam, it doesn't matter if everyone in the world loves you if you don't love you because you're not you. (I need a thesaurus) Don't change unless you want to.

good for you ellie!!
and you too cam!!!
we do make compromises in our relationships...
but fundamentally - we shouldn't change to please them... they are with us because they liked what they saw.... and if they change their mind - that's their perogative..
funny part is - you might change yours first...

I think my biggest problem is all through high school, and even know in college and work, I'm always in the middle (goddamn libra desposition!) and I find it hard to take a stand or accept a label. The partyers are reluctant to hang out with me because they think I'm too nerdy. The nerds are reluctant to hang out with me because they think I'm too much of a partyer. And so I'm left alone in the middle. It occurred to me that my dweeby friends are probably as happy as my glam friends, because they've got that niche and can find other people who fit those niches comfortably.
Point is I sometimes wonder if I need to change myself for the sake of having more people to hang out with. I've got lots of "friends" but few close friends.
Oops, 9996 - Fredi, go crazy! Everyone else, be quiet! *runs off to be quiet*
