Writer's block like nobody's business. That what I have. I want to write something but I....don't know. It might have something to do with the half a million papers I have to write for school but I don't know...

But... one  of my friends is using one of the monologues I wrote for an audition and that makes me really happy. When I wrote it, I never actually thought about how it would look acted out. So I'm really excited to see what she does with it.

Also... I started reading The Hunger Games sometime last week and I'm already almost done with the last book. I love them so much, I'm going to go through withdraws when I'm done. Usually, reading a really good book will inspire me to write something myself. But these books are so amazing that I don't think I would ever be able to write anything that compares, ever. Alas! Alack!

I got a job at the Renaissance Festival and I'm super excited! I'm working games but I'm not sure which one yet but I think it will be the strongest man one.

And on a final note... Midsummer Night's Dream opens this week! As much as I love the show, I can't play Hermia much longer. It's been a great experience but she's about as deep as a mud puddle. But it's been crazy fun (even acting romantic opposite of my ex) and I can't wait to perform. It'll be my last, pre-college show. (I'm on the wait list for UGA. That's better than rejected, right?)

Okay, Adieu.

Sooo...

I just got back from seeing Beauty and the Beast at the Fox and I must say that my love for that play remains just as strong as ever before.

However, this was not the best production of it that I've ever seen. Don't get me wrong, it was incredible, but the cut 2 songs and one big dance scene (No Matter What, Mason de Lune, and Battle at the Castle) which left me feeling a little empty. But tis well.

I must take a moment to rave about Gaston. He was amazing and hysterical. As was Lumiere, though his accent got too thick at times. I withhold my opinion on Belle since it is completely biased since I'm praying that I'll be playing her this summer.

In other news...

Applying to college is better. I'm tired of trying to get the idiots who work in the Clayton County School System to work with me though. So moving on...

I'm writing again. I'm super pumped about it. I haven't had enough inspiration to do any good for about 8 months.

On a final note...

My New Years resolution is to read the bible cover to cover, and learn the words to One Week by Bare Naked Ladies.

Applying to college SUCKS! It takes way too long and they want to know waaaay too much. And they're stupid. And I have to audition for almost every school I apply to so I can study theatre. dlsjfkhasldf.

on top of that...

My parents really want me to go to UGA but I would rather not. Like...really rather not. That school has always been at the bottom of my list but now it's being forced to the top. I guess the decision is mine but I just wish they would stop throwing hints at me. It's irritating.

Aaaand, there is this amazing school in New York that I think is pretty promising that I have an audition for in January no, the parents are still team UGA. sdljfkglsdk.jflsvdgbfkdg,jd!

So, I'm at a loss of places to apply to. I've done KSU and AMDA and I've started UGA (*dies a little on inside*) and FSU. And of course, my high school is NOT working with me on getting my transcripts.

Maybe I'll just throw caution to the wind and try to make it on my own. That's not wise, I know, but it's preferable at this point.

Sigh

Holy crap, is Christmas really only 10 days away? That's NOT okay. I mean, I feel like July was just the other day. Which makes me miss Les Miserables. A whole freakin lot. That was an amazing show. Ugggghhhh.

Back to Christmas. I have a friend who hasn't seen Christmas Vacation. That's just insanity. It's one of the best Christmas movies out there.

Ramble ramble ramble.

There really is no point to this journal. I just felt like writing something really...

Merry Christmas!

So....

This Tuesday I auditioned for this amazing little musical called Les Miserables. I got called back for three roles (Cosette, Fantine, and Eponin). After an intense 3 hours of callback auditions, I went home and had to wait for about a million hours for the cast list.
And...

I got Eponine!

I'm so happy. It has been my dream to play this role since I was like 11! The first rehearsal is in a week and I can't wait. This should be an interesting experience. God has blessed me so much and I do all of this in his name.

I'll keep updating as the show goes!

<3 theatre!
