Wow. This first paragraph is OT to most...skip tot he next section for "relevant" ramblings....
Got back last night from Florida to a major self-meltdown due to an incredibly stupid and painful bio lab report (which i procreastinated on resulting in my being unable to do any fun internet stuffs after being deprived of it for four days...). Yeah-> I was up til 3.30 doing the lab (the latest I've ever stayed up so far to do such a thing...I'm not usually an allnighter person but it wasn't awful...until i think about hockey practice tomorrow morning...). And if that weren't bad enough I've started to question what I want to do with my future.(I've always said directingdirectingdirecting but i think now maybe perhaps I want to give acting a shot just so I have tried as I've always wanted to anyway and I don't want regrets...maybe acting on the side for fun..or something..I just neeed to try...*shouldawouldacoulda started earlier but o well...better try before its 'too late'...scared to tell my parents though; they see me as only the shy type...so..yeah...)


Anway--*Back on Topic*
I had so much to read and last night I took a ten minute break in which I was able to read through what I missed.

Thanks so much Anthony for answering several of my questions. When I read the heaven's pearly gates response I swear after realizing for a second what you responded i started to tear-literally (it was in a total summation of my overwhelmed self at that hour of the night with the bio lab and thinking about loss and such).

Also thanks for answering about the community thing and such and such, it's greatly appreciated to read your responses :) ~So, again, thanks for answering all these questions!

to bronxboundexpress: answering your question, Yes. SN= WhiteBoy Spice

and to N0tThatGirl213 "If Rent is R rated, I won't be able to get in. Wait...it's coming out next holiday season. I'll be 17 by then. SCARY! "

OMG! When I read that I thought to myself, too bad that's not true for me and then realized it will be. Scary and Woohoo-y at the same time...

Got to go.....:)

just bumping back to first page. don't think we've abandoned you anthony. we're just patiently waiting and avoiding asking more to give you a chance to catch up.

Abandon Anthony? How could you even suggest something like that? ^^

[Alix7272]

Posted: 11/9/04 at 7:11pm

sorry, not suggesting that at all!

Wow...we're doing really well with the no threadjacking thing.

*BUMP*

NTG you're quite right this thread is uncharacteristically quiet.. ( or should I say the people are)

Updated On: 11/10/04 at 12:47 PM

[stacey717]

Posted: 11/10/04 at 3:49pm

Yeah.. it has been rather quiet...
(I know for me it's definitely because of my complete lack of time this whole week so far..ice hockey 3 out of 5 mornings this week and then getting almost no sleep last Sunday didn't help the situation..)

While we're all kinda being silent and stuffs...why don't we pick a play, character, etc, and discuss?
(We had a mini discussion on Mark before, here, kinda, and it as suggested we discuss Nocturne...maybe we could all pick something and head over somewhere to discuss it...I know this thread was an asking questions thread and the real reason its so silent is 'cause I think we all feel like we overwhelmed *somebody* with lots of questions...just maybe...)

Wait a tick! I think we're...*gasp*... being patient! Do we have...manners? (I think we just may hehe...)

*~:)~*~!~:)~#~*:)*~*
On a random note...Today I began showing Dazed and Confused to the Film Career Awareness/ Community Service group I co-lead (they're all sophs, my coleaders and I are juniors...)...and get this: for once they not only behaved and were silent for the entire time, but showed some sort of interest in the mini discussion we had after we had to return the movie...I'm glad I brought it today:)

Oooo... I think I may have a question or two about that film...
...but I think maybe I'll wait to post more questions... Updated On: 11/10/04 at 03:49 PM

Yes, I have a question for Anthony, how come it's sometimes called "doing the nasty"? I mean sure, it's a little dirty and it's never really "the right thing to do" but, "doing the nasty"??? Nasty is a really strong word, I'm not sure I agree with calling it nasty...

[stacey717]

Posted: 11/10/04 at 6:46pm

Okayyyy. *I'm not even gonna say anything*

Though it does make me think of one SNL skit Tim Meadows did (some rap-ish singer person who sings a wannabehitlikethemacarena song 'Do the Nasty' -with a dance accompanying--and then changes the song to 'I Just Want to Be Your Friend' or something like that, because he didn't really 'believe' in singing the original song and because he ended up in a hospital after 'Doing "The Nasty"' and said that's how he got injured, or course meaning it was the dance craze thingy)

Umm...an example of what my question was more along the lines of learning about the mid-70's for Dazed and Confused because Anthony was only 4 when the movie actually takes place and sometimes it can be hard to remember something you lived through (well, in this case it's only a kindasorta, as he wasn't in highschool himself...) because you were young (and end up remembering only bits and pieces...and usually you don't choose what things you will actually remember either...)
I was thinking that it's possible when you are so young to have known someone the age of, for example of this movie's sake, in high school but it's usually not common for you to remember so much in detail about their experience unless you lived with them..but even so...)

I personally can't remember what highschoolers were like when I was four...didn't really know any at the time and doubt I'd truly remember them specifically either (and now I'm still only 16 going on 17...but it's so wierd to think that was coming up on 13 years ago...)

edit: Yeah.. I guess I did say something....heh.... Updated On: 11/10/04 at 06:46 PM

Whaddup.

Wow, so ghetto.

Anyway...my best friend Jessica saw LSOH on Sundaym she loved it, got a picture with Anthony. Good times. So she says hi.

Wish I could have been there...

Anyways, I was listening to Forbidden Broadway yesterday...Anthony, what d'you think of the parody of you?

By the by, everyone...Jess said Anthony looked REALLY tired so I think he might be napping instead of answering questions for now...

But yeah.

Um.

Yeah!

yes, Ant has been catching up on his MUCH needed and well deserved rest.

[stacey717]

Posted: 11/10/04 at 10:04pm

Yes! It is MUCH deserved rest for Anthony!

Enjoy all rest you can get!



*Sigh*-->I need rest...
I'm still *arg* that I won't be able to see the tour before December as an east-coaster..but oh well..



sorry as this is a bit OT while I begin to fall asleep (gah! antoher early morning practice in 8 hours!)...Speaking of being an east coaster (kinda) the episode of law and order tonight is "ripped from the headlines" and clearly our soon-to-be-ex-governor's revelation of affair and subsequent 'coming out'...i'll need to watch it tomorrow...lol how they say its the gov of CT in the show but you know clearly who its about (more or less, you know, minus the murder stuffs)

Incredibly random thought in my head. The governor's mansion is in my town and I still think Drumthwacket is an interesting name for a governor's mansion.

*Sorry for like the bottom 3/4 at least of that post...I'm tired and very drowsy....it was very OT, not "a bit OT" as I said before* (I'm too tired to delete it now though, sorry again...)

I was just wondering if any of you are reading the posts on this book and since Anthony is an actor who has made it on Broadway, I wonder what his input is on this book and it's contents!

[stacey717]

Posted: 11/11/04 at 3:20pm

boook? vaht boook?

ie-> ::confused::

book= this thread? (sorry i'm just really confused...)

hmmm...

i assume she is refering to the Retn Book you can get in the theater- yes? no?

[broadwaybound3]

Posted: 11/11/04 at 3:27pm

but we all know what assuming does- makes and ass out of u and me

[thespian geek]

Posted: 11/11/04 at 3:29pm

I think they were referring to the book Making It On Broadway ...

[camerangel]

Posted: 11/11/04 at 4:24pm

The subject line is Making it On Broadyway so my guess is that is the book in question..

[stacey717]

Posted: 11/11/04 at 5:18pm

Hehe..that does make sense... I guess I didn't realize because I didn't know of a book with that title...but now I want to rush out an find a copy...

Is it a "good read"? (Well, if it was mentioned and one wants an opinion on it I'm guessing it might be then...)

*I need to go search it on amazon*

edit: Hmmm... or not...depends on whether you want to see the nitty gritty business side, if its true, but i have no idea if it is and i haven't read it, etc....but i get the idea because of the other thread that's about the book, it seems that's what its about...
I should prolly go inspect the book at barnes and noble or something but it sounds like it makes peoples' fairy tale thoughts about b'way dissipate/sink....maybe i wouldnt want to then, huh...hm....prolly worth some sorta look... Updated On: 11/11/04 at 05:18 PM
