It has come to my attention that some people seem to believe that I enjoy being depressed. Well, you’re wrong. Dead wrong. And to prove it to you, I’m turning over a new leaf.
From now on, I will do my best to put on a happy face. And when I can’t I’ll take a walk. It’s not fair to my friends to do what I’ve been doing. I’m sorry.
Anyway, now for the update... [LINE] The last time I entered a REAL blog was ... woah. Last Monday. Well here we go ...
Sears fest was on Tuesday, and it was awesome! Other than some stupid punk kids who tried to prove how cool they are by making complete jackasses of themselves, everything went, “ ... as smooth as can be Bob.” Sorry, but it’s fun to quote the play XD.
I don’t really remember what happened on Wednesday. But Thursday was great! There was a Sears rehearsal after school, and Becky was there. She stayed after the Insight show so she could watch the Air Bandz. After rehearsal, I went out into the hallway and I saw Becky there. Now she was posing as Megan’s cousin, because this was strictly a family affair. I noticed that they both were wearing their Insight shirts, and I didn’t think that it would be too convincing. I told Becky this, she looked at me for a second, then cried, “LET’S SWITCH SHIRTS!”. So we ran up to the nearest bathroom and switched shirts. She got to wear my Mr. Sparkle T-shirt, and I (finally) got to wear an Insight T-shirt. Hopefully I’ll have one of my own next year.
We all made our way over to the Harvey’s and Pizza Pizza, I deposited a check into the bank machine (more on that later) and then I went and bought pizza and then grapes from Loeb. After we chowed down, we got ready. We practiced Time Warp a couple more times, and then we waited for our call. Our performance was AWESOME!!
After our show, before they announced the winners, there was a little game to figure out “Who has the best Mop in the School?”. By mop, they mean hair. Chris got chosen from the crowd by the MC’s, and a whole bunch of other people went up. They had to shake their heads and show off their mop. In the end, Georgia won, and if you know Georgia, you know why she won.
In the end, WE WON AIR BANDZ!! lol. It was so great! And it turns out, that there’s regionals! So we have all the way until May to get it perfect beyond perfect! I hope we win, that’d be awesome!
After we cleaned up, Chris, Geoff, Mal, Becky, Sarah (I think) and if I missed anyone I’m sorry, and myself, wandered around until my mom came. I ended up driving Geoff, Mal, and Chris home.
The next day, nothing really happened. After school, I bused to Andrew’s and we got kicked out at about 6:30. We went to the Min - A - Mart (yes, Min - A - Mart) and after much contemplating, bought a frozen pizza and a McCain cake thingy. Once we got to his place, we actually watched the pizza cook (sad I know) and then watched Rocky Horror Picture Show. lol.
After I got home, my emotions finally came out. I cut myself for the first time that night. Five cuts. Not deep. But I still did it. I did it again on Saturday and Sunday. Less cuts but bigger. Jon noticed the cuts on Saturday morning and called me on Monday night. He talked to me for about 2 hours, just trying to get me to not do it again. But I did. But I haven’t cut myself since Monday. But oh hell, I wanted to.
I’m going to get off that topic incase a parental sees ...
Tuesday was the last day for rehearsals. It went really rough. Two run-throughs and there was a lot more line stumbling than usual. But they say that if the dress rehearsal sucks, your show will be amazing! Which it was!
Yesterday, I had math, then at 9:00, Mal and I headed down to the foyer. We took the taxi to SRB and made our way to the auditorium. We rehearsed for 2 hours and we then headed out for lunch at about 11:45. We spent 5 hours at lunch! And I only ordered an iced tea! We stayed there and played this little interactive trivia game. Very fun. Ms. Stewart gave us all this little framed publicity poster with a card. I was so sweet! I had gone over to Loeb to see if I could buy any flowers for the cast and crew. I could, but MY CHECK HADN’T GONE THROUGH YET!!
We made our way back to SRB for about 5:15. We played Cranium in the green room for about an hour and made our way back into the auditorium for 7:00 and watched the first show. It was Lester B. Pearson, and they weren’t bad, but they weren’t great either. I missed the second show ‘cause I went back with the guys to direct them in a warm up.
QUOTE OF THE DAY: “Dear moon, I am stuck in the ozone. Please help.” - Ari.
He said that while warming up, FOR NO REASON! It was amazing! Ari always has the best quotes.
Anyway, the show was 10 times more amazing than the show at school. High energy, and everything! Ahhh good times.
A lot of MHS people were there. Mr. Osterer, Mr. Mo, Debra’s mom (mommy), Geoff’s mom and dad, and their friends, Ari’s mom and dad, his brother and I think his grandparents too. We had the most people, we had the loudest cheers and everything! And the adjudicator loved the show too. Any points she had for improvements were very small and nit-picky because there was nothing to really improve on! :D
Anyway, today nothing happened. Seriously. I really can’t think of anything funny that happened during school. Becky called me at 5:00ish. She discovered that it’s a long-distance call to my house. Stupid I know. She made me go on the computer to continue talking. She left for the bathroom, so I sang her a song. Something like:
Oh Becky, you left me for some smelly pee-machine, And now I'm busy talking to me, oh Becky I'm siting here, popping my blisters Cause I didn't get my shoes from the shoe-making sisters!! Oh Becky ...
Do you like the song? I made it up on the spot. 8)
I think Becky is going to sleep over at my house after the play we go see tomorrow night, which shall prove to be interesting. lol. And we're going to switch shirts again!! :P
