6:42 pm	Correct Times? I think not... Alright so I totally gave the wrong times for Forum. Apparently, those were my call times...the shows actually start an hour later! so here it is: A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum Harborfields HS April 22-25 Thurs-Sat: 8:00 Sun: 3:00 Those are the right times!!!!!!!!!!!! So yeah its still goin pretty bad. Costumes tomorrow. Me and rachel haven't kissed yet. I thought we would today cause it was our first run through...but no...she's way to nervous about it....there's gonna be an incredible lack of chemistry....its gonna be like earth science instead(in the words of Allie Henkel!) ...all boring and rocky and stuff that no one cares about. I feel that my song is really boring...and slow. Grrr....im just not concentrating. My character like fades in and out. It's exciting...and by exciting i mean bad... other than that...I'm goin to the LuHi fashion show tonight w/ sammi to see Jordan!!! O0o0o0o0o da da da da da da!!! he's gonna be so stylish! *whistles* Oh! And I'm definitly doin Joseph at Bayway...I talked to vic today! Now I just have to figure out how I'm gonna get there...hmmmm And to sum up w/ a few quotes...2 occurences at today's run through: 1. Kate A (Hysteria) sings: "I'm calm, I'm calm, I haven't a qualm, I'm utterly under control. Let nothing confuse me or faze me *yawns*..." Ben Steinberger (Senex-screams out way to early): "Hysteria!" Kate (screamns): "No you asshole!" (or something like that...) Ben: *confused face* Kate: "Excuse me...I'm calm. Oh, so calm. Oh so.." I cue Ben to say it... Ben: "Hysteria!" Kate: "MORON!!!!!!!" hehehe...it was funny 2. (Backstage) Michaela (erronia): I need to see your script... Me: What do you need a script for? You have ONE line! "Second time around!" Michaela: I KNOW the line silly, i just don't know my cue! (Onstage) Michaela: Third time....Second time around!" LMFAO...that was funny. And finally...some words from the hysterical Alex M...(I'm not even goin to attempt the last name...) SciFrEaK13: Sorry....my comoputer's PMSing and I apparently forgot to shove a midol up its ass today!!! I love you alex! YAAAAAAAYYYYY!!!!!!!!bye.

10:32 pm	Who got into CAP 21?????? not Jon Rivera.... ITS MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!! I'm beyond excited, even if my sammit isn't goin. :( So....Damn Yankees didn't suck! It actually turned out quite nice! But I would like to share with you probably the funniest thing that has ever happened to me (or rather...I did) onstage: This is how the line should be read: "There's a wittness coming in from Mexico City who knew Shifty McCoy." This is how I said the line on opening night....are you ready for this?: "There's a witness coming in from Mexico Shitty...umm..who...knew...there's a "...then the entire audience gradually start laughing...then i start laughing...then brianne starts laughing. we were the only two on stage and there was no where to hide. We finished the scene in laughter but somehow regained composure to sing our boring sad song. Ok so I went to Disney World over vaca and it was soooooo much fun!!!!!! Janna was there too and i saw CHRISTIANA!!!!! It was soooo awesome. Me and Janna waited on line with a bunch of 3 year olds (one of whom decided to pee in the bushes while he waited...) to get a picture with Christiana as Winnie the Pooh!!!!! yay!!!!!!!!!!! And then we all went to Magic Kingdom together!!!! But Janna left early....her and her sister are scared of EVERY RIDE....i wonder if they did Snow Whites SCARY Adventures...that was scary...hmmm....So Christ and I watched the light parade and WISHES (the fireworks) which were fuckin amazing!!!!!!! And then on my last day, i was at epcot, but i went over to MGM to see Christiana in FANTASMIC!!!!!!!!! It was soo cool...I was like "I know someone in the show!!!" I'm such a dork. She was awesome. Oh! And christ and I ate dinner in Mexico Shitty!!! HAHAHAHA It was a lot of fun and I'm so happy I got to see her! I missed her! Everyone is hereby ordered to go visit her! She misses everyone so much!! Ok...well I'm done with that. So Funny Thing seems like it is going to be disasterous. there is no balcony on the center house...where I have all this staging. So now we have to redo everything. AND Ben Steinberger has strep or mono or something and isnt in school. He plays senex...a large role...and i have a song with him that we NEED to practice. A LOT. ugh....but never the less I'm going to plug the show: A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum Harborfields HS in Greenlawn April 22, 23, 24 @ 7:00 April 25 @ 2:00 Tickets are pretty cheep...Here's some selected cast: Pseudolus: Ben Gammerman Hysteria: Kate Abruzese (I butchered your name...sorry kate!) Hero: MEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! Philia: Rachel Burkurt Senex: Ben Steinberger Domina: Brianna McGurran Lycus: Kyle Filliaut Miles: Charles R. Erronia: Michaela Grosso Prologii: Cara Campanelli and Caroline Weber Alright...so there's a cabaret at CM to raise money so they don't close. It is on Sunday 4/18 and Thurs 4/22. I'm only performing in the Sunday one cause of Funny Thing. But here's the deal. We're singing One Day More...like original CM cast...I'm so excited. But today Noel tells me that Jerermy (Valjean) is gonna be on a plane on Sun and might not make it in time for the song, which closes ACT I. So he asked me if i could sing it and I said i dont know. I really don't want to. I'd much rather just be marius cause i know i can do that. It's also my last time singing the song...for a long while at least and I want to sing Marius one last time. So I'm supposed to sing Valjean at rehearsal tomorrow to see if I can...then it will be a back up plan in case Jeremy doesn't make it. If i do Valjean then Chris from Starmites will be marius (he's already filling in for me on thurs so that's no big deal.) I dunno...I have mixed feelings about all that. We're also singing the theme from STARMITES. That should be interesting...we'll see if my falsetto is around on sunday...good times. So in conclusion... COME SUPPORT CREATIVE MINISTRIES ON 4/18 AND 4/22!!!!!!! TICKETS ARE $30 BUT IT IS WORTH IT! DON'T LET THIS THEATER CLOSE!!!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!That's the end of my propaganda. So in related news, Vic DiMonda asked me to be in Joseph at Bayway and I think I'm going to do it. I need serious help with rides tho....hmmm. Brianne is gonna be in it...so I hope spending the whole summer together isn't going to create drama. She wants me to go to prom with her but I don't know if I can do that. I'm afraid I'm gonna get all upset and stuff because we were supposed to go together...together...not as friends. I dunno this is all very strange. My emotions are all over the place. I just don't want to keep settig myself up to get hurt. Once more thing...American Idol tonight! Jeniffer and Latoya kicked ass....and Fantasia made me cry. I dont usually like her but I did. Wow those three should be the top three. No question. Red Head Guy's gotta go! NOW!! He should have been the first one voted off! EWE!!!!!! "If you admire coloring books and lots of people do, I've a knew one for you. A most unusual coloring book, the kind you never see. Crayons ready crayons set: Begin to color me. These are the eyes that watched her as she walked away... Color them grey. This is the heart that thought she would always be true... Color it blue. These are the arms that held her and touched her, then lost her somehow... Color them empty now. This is the tie I wore until he came between... Color it green. This is the room I sleep in and walk in and weep in and hide in that nobody sees.... Color it lonely, please. This is the girl, the one I depended upon. Color her gone...." ~"My Coloring Book" from "And the World Goes Round" Current Mood: contemplative Current Music: "My Coloring Book"- And the World Goes Round (8 Comments |Comment on this)

Other than all that garbage my life is pretty mellow. I've been kinda moody lately...like either really happy and hyper or really tired and depressed.

11:12 pm	Random Updates, anyone? Hey! It's been a while since i updated, but it's late and i dont have much to say. Les Miz is going very well and I can't believe that im saying this, but I'm actually gonna miss it alot when its over. I MISS NIGERIA!!!!!!!! :( That's my random thought of the day....alright maybe their were a few more random thoughts...but...shhhh! Bite of Bway went pretty smoothly except the band was so loud in act one you couldnt here a singer person singing...hopefully itll be fixed by next week. The piano player was playing a completely different song when he got to Part 2 of Comfort and Joy...I just started in some random key and somehow found my way back to the right one. He's on crack. My mom left at intermission...she's said it sucked. I got a CAP 21 audition...im excited. My voice has currently left me. The first weekend of Les Miz it was starting to go, but I made it through opening...however i could barely speak the next day. It finally came back for SCMEA (oh how i hate thee) and Les Miz this past sunday but i was horse during BOB. This past week its been pretty much gone. I have absolutely no falsetto and the rest of it kinda sux. I hat losing my voice! My dad's writing me a note saying i don't have to speak during school tomorrow...i figure if i try to not use my voice at all...itll be back on friday...i hope. Time to break out the ol' notepad and sharpie. Tomorrow should be interestin. Today I went to Starmites and we did absolutely nothin....well we watched this video of some high school production from the 80's. It was REALLY painful...plus the picture was bad. I spent the last hour hanging out and talking to Chris. He's a really cool guy, and we had lots of fun. Thanx for waiting an hour for my ride to come, Chris! :) I don't know what my problem is lately...I've been getting in randomly bad moods lately and I don't know why. I've just been thinking alot, and im not really getting any answers. Stoopid feelings. I hatchu! So! Come see Les Miz...and Bite of Bway! O0o0o0o and a quiz! My first one, but the results are ever so appropriate! NAIL COMPASS TV NO NO LAMP NO NO CELLPHONE YES YES BIKE YES YES BLENDER NO NO Well I dunno about the drama queen thing....but Les Miz rocks my sox! Text me!! I've become very text happy this week...don't ask why...just do it! :P "Acting is not about showing off. It's about being. It's about finding the essence of humanity within your own heart, and within the hearts of others. You find hatred, happiness, beauty, melancholy, ugliness -- all within a single soul.

12:55 am	Wizard of Oz in a day? Hi everyone! Its time for a peppy happy update from none other that ME!!!!!! Are you excited? I bet. Well the beginning of the week was kind of uneventful and sad so I'm not gonna spend much time on it. However, i did get cast as Jack in "Zombie Prom" opposite the talented cara bush! yay! And...as i suspected...got one of the Starmites in "Starmites", but i think im gonna get to sing really high falsetto stuff so it should be fun. Brianne is the diva and shes gonna kick ass. Moving on...Wed....I'm possibly the stupidest person alive. I have a rehearsal schedule for Les Miz but do u think i check it? Of course not! I just make up dates and times in my head and decide thats when i have rehearsal! So, i showed up to CAP on wed at 11:45 for what i thought was my 12-6 rehearsal. In reality, my rehearsal started AT 6 and the 12-6 rehearsal was thurs. go figure! (I found this all out from Jess G on da phone, after she laughed at me for a while! lol) So my dad def had a meeting of some sort so i had to wait at CAP for an hour with nothin to do....so i loitered, looked at some b-day cards in this store just for the hell of it...and bought chinese food even tho i wasnt hungry. Then Gina showed up and was all like "are you comin to RAGTIME today?" and i was like no...and she was like "the u/s for Mother is goin today" and i was like "well id like to see someone good do that part..." Then my baby Danielle showed up and so i decided to just stay and see it again. So after Dani's mom almost got in a fist fight with these old ladies who were in our seats, we sat down and saw the show...which i must say improved A LOT since opening weekend. It was actually really awesome...and the new mother had this incredible voice! wow! i got chills! So then i went to my les miz rehearsal and spent like 10 hours at CAP. So where did i spend six hours today?...CAP of course! Well, after I went to pick up my wizard script from Sammi's. (who had just woken up and was very dazed and confused and in her pj's...lol i heart u sammi!) So neways, im having a lot of Fun at Les Miz...i dont know how good the shows gonna be, but im havin fun and thats all that matters. (Who wouldnt have fun if they got to go to Nigeria all the time? hehe) So yeah then i went to Bite of Bway rehearsal and ended up teaching the vocals for "Sweet Transvestite" cause no one could play piano and stuff...(or read the music cause it was handwritten and sucked at life!) Tomorrow i have a very excitin day planned...I'm spending all day w/ Sammi which should be awesome cause we haven't hung out in a thousand years...we're goin to the mall and then she's gonna teach me the entire show of Wizard of Oz. lol Oh yeah, I'm filling in for Jordan as the Scarecrow in Wizard of Oz on Saterday and i dont know what the f--- im doin! yay! it should be interestin...So tomorrow night im prob gonna go see "Into the Woods" at Airport again...but i need to find some1 to go w/...call me if u wanna go (327-7073)!!!!! So I have lots of dates to give to the world! I would be overjoyed if you came to see me in any of the following performances so check it out! Here we go: Wizard of Oz BayWay Arts Center in East Islip Saturday, 2/21 @ 2:00 (I'm just filling in this one day...if you want a good laugh, then come see!) Les Miserables Cultural Arts Playhouse in Old Bethpage Ok, I'm double casted (me and Alex Goldberg split the role) so these are my dates: Saturday, 3/6 @ 8:00 Sunday, 3/14 @ 3:00 Friday, 3/19 @ 8:30 Saturday, 3/20 @ 4:00 AND 8:00 Sunday, 3/21 @ 12:00 (I think this is a closed show, but u might be able to get tkts...) So, i didn't feel like writing down who else is in each one of those shows...I don't really care which day you come, cause i can't even keep straight whose in it when... Bite of Broadway: A Taste of Rock The Stage in Merrick Sunday, 3/14 and 3/28 @ 7:30 (I'm not sure about the time) This is a benifit for Equity Fights AIDS and it's a really good cause as well as a really good show! :-P So, there it is! Now that I've written a never ending entry...you'll be relieved to know that I'm done. Goodbye all and goodnight! "Maybe I'm brainless, maybe I'm wise, but you've got me seeing through different eyes." -hahaha...get it...cause im gonna be the scarecrow? Da na na...bad joke.

2:58 pm	I never been this upset for this long before. Usually, I get over something fairly quickly...usually overnight. I didn't know it was possible to cry in you sleep. I didn't know it was possible to not eat for 24 hours and still not be hungry. I woke up this morning and i fell apart once again. I wasn't supposed to be home alone all day, and yet, i am. I don't know how many more times will have to read your appology to not burst into tears. Your right, there was a void in my life before i found you. I felt so alone and a cried all the time. Now I have you, and im alone and crying again...what's wrong with me? Will I never be satisfied with what I have? How could you possibly stare me in the face and tell me nothings wrong with that horrible smirk on your face? I never want to relive that moment again, and yet it flashes into my head every second. ...I love you too. "I'm gonna feel the love. I'm gonna feel the hurt. I'm gonna let my heart bleed right on your pretty shirt. I'm gonna feel the pain right through this hurricane. I'm gonna let myself cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry..."

9:08 pm	Callbacks suck.....grrr....argh.... Alright, i definitly just typed a whole entry about my life and now it disappeared...where the hell did it go? alright im gonna start again...but be a little more brief... I went to Zombie Prom callbacks last night...i only got to read a total of 5 lines and then i wowed them with my amazing dancing abilities (the sad thing is its kind of true...) so anway i think they were pretty much pointless cause most of us, if not all, are gonna end up with the same parts (not that thats a bad thing...) so anyway..thats that....Then Carlyn's mommy drove me to CAP, but les miz wasnt at cap it was at dance dimensions so then i found Amanda Mac and her dad drove me to dd...so thank u mr. mac!!! yay!!!!! then i got my show schedule and i cant do the sun night cause it conflicts with bite of bway...so i hope alex can switch with me... (this was much longer and more organized but it disappeared...so now ur getting the condensed verson...its like cambells soup...only not as yummy....) So today i went to Starmites callbacks at CM and i guess i kinda got my hopes up cause the leading guy's songs were really high but i thought i sang really well for the role...and then there was this other guy who was also good and, ( i mean this in as straight a way as possible...) hot...and hes prob gonna get it cause at the end they had me and 3 other guys (not him) sing for the bad guy and the 3 back up singers...so im kinda guessing that means they know they want him for the lead...but there are more callbacks on wed so well see...Im just so disgusted with myself that i cant handle not getting the lead nowadays..i dunno...i guess my ego has just gotten way too big over the last year...i mean i used to be fine with getting small parts or ensemble in shows...and now im flipping out over something stupid like starmites..im just so mad at myself...but i think this show will be a good experience for me...it will put me in my place and make me realize that im not the best...and im never gonna be the best...cause if  i wanna pursue this in the future, ive got to be humble...or maybe im totally off base...i dunno...ugh. On a lighter note, PLAYFEST was AMAZING!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!! We won best play and i won best director and me and linz were like flipping out....The sophmore class (winner of 16 awards...which is half the awards) won the following: Best Play--Yay everyone!!!!!--esp. linz gill and her awesome script Best director- Yay me!!!

Last night me and Brianne had Bite of Broadway rehearsal, which is in freakin Westbury so we have to take a train now cause Brian dropped out and he was our ride! (Run on sentence anyone?) So we took the 7:05 out of huntington that was supposed to get us in at 7:29...rehearsal was at 7:30 like right down the street and Brianne's friend was picking us up (Name? Idk but she had wicked playing in her car so shes awesome no matter what her name is...hmm....) So, needless to say we missed our stop and ended up in Jamaica (is that right?idk) So then we waited 20 minutes for a train back to westbury...in the FREEZING COLD!! OMG it couldnt have been colder...i swear...so we got to rehearsal...stayed for like 20 minutes and then it was over...there were only like 5 people there...it seemed kinda pointless, idk...i guess im not used to the casual "rehearsals" of BOB, maybe ill get used to it...or maybe ill just conplain about it..well see. So we took another train (after waiting again in the cold) back to huntington and Brianne transferred to stony brook...It was an eventful evening..but at least i was with Brianne!! <3 <3 So yeah I'm gonna be a total wreck this next week (if im not one already) Ive got midterms in global, spanish, chemistry, and math next week...There's sooo much stuff to study!!!! Plus for global we have to know all last years stuff too! shoot me now. grrr...Wow...stress...not fun. Today was just totally overwhelming cause i was either reviewing for midterms or taking a midterm/test...every period except lunch....and english where we watched that movie about the black guy who kills the girl and throws her body in the furnace?? ring any bells? i hope not...weird....OH and during choir someone pulled the fire alarm (which is this weird new sound that i cant describe...its freakin annoying tho...)and so we stood outside...with Clay Aiken who told us fire drill stories from Potsdam. He was cool. Now who am i gonna talk to in choir? hmmm... Well I guess thats all folks! Oh yeah!

5:08 pm	Updatey McUpdate!!!!!!!!! so yeah! Hey everyone! Going back to school sux...especially when you have midterms next week. ::shudder:: But lets not dwell on that...me and Dan had some exciting adventures on monday! You see, because of the snow storm, Brianne and Amy couldnt sleep over so we decided to go visit them on monday during the day....My mom said she was dropping my brother off and coming right home so i figured shed be back in time to take us to the train, but no, my friends....my brother decided not to tell her he needed lunch till he got there...so she went to get him lunch...and me and dan walked (and trotted) in the snow to get to the train. Dan almost go hit by a white van (hehehe...oops! i mean...it was bad...) So anyway we made it to the train station as the train was pulling up and got on in the knick of time. So then the conductor came to get out tickets but we didnt have time to buy them...So since Dan had a $10 bill he paid for the tkts...and the guy was like "why are you paying for him..." ("Well, this is...awkward...")So he basically implied he thought we were a couple (lmao) but dan said he was my big brother....(good cover dan...im sure he bought that one...) So then Briannes dad decided to be a dick once again and not pick us up at the train station. So me and dan took a dirty taxi with this big fat guy who reeked (i can spell i swear...)of smoke...and when we were on Nichols Road at a stop light he got out of the car in the middle of the road to take his coat off...it was weird...then he started making these funny yawning sounds and me and dan had to pretend we were laughing at an invisible text message instead of the crazy dude. So, now that i've wasted 3 hours of your life reading this...ill sum it up with we got to Briannes and watched Finding Nemo and ate really hard (BUT YUMMY) rice krispie treats that brianne made....dan went on the trampoline in the snow...and then we went home...WOOHOO! exciting day! So no may I bitch about American Idol? What's with the incredible lack of talent????? And why didn't they take the Army chick? She could sing really well..and she was so adorable...ugh...stupid american idol...I dont know why Missy and Heather didnt make it...they could outsing anyone on the show so far... So yeah what else? School sucks...I had a really shitty day yesterday for no real good reason...but whatever. we had playfest rehearsal and it went well except AJ didnt show till the end cause he had basketball and didnt tell us...i was a little pissed off...and by a little i mean a lot! But we did finish the scene pretty much and i think its gonna be really funny...we stole tables from the senior lounge (we had to clean them off first...ewe!) and we did the whole scene on the tables! So yeah everyone should come see Playfest at my school if you want a good laugh and cause i directed it so its bound to be brilliant! jk jk PLAYFEST 2004! Harborfields High School...(yes, way out here in G-Lawn) Friday,(2/8) and Saturday (2/7) @ 8:00!!!!!! or you could not come...and i wont tell myself you werent there....cause its really not a big deal! Hehehehe well yeah im gonna stop now cause this might be the longest LJ entry ever (i wouldnt know...) But neways i miss all my friends from Guam!!!!!!! and Brianne!!!!!! G-Lawn sucks. "Love! Love! It's got to be love!" Current Mood: geeky Current Music: WICKED!!!!!!!! (yes, the whole show, not just one song!!!) (5 Comments |Comment on this)

1:27 am	I have a live journal thingy!!!!! Woohoo! So, my name's Chris. I do shows. yay. I have a girlfriend named Brianne. I think that's about all the introduction your getting, because that's all I'm gonna give. So deal. So yeah Dan O'Connor is sleepin ova and he just helped me set up this thing. I'm excited. But i'm warning you all that i'll probably never ubdate it. not that i'd have all that much to say neway....so hear i am! So yeah me and dan were being all crafty with my scrap book tonight...I suddenly got inspired to work on it when we had that snow day. But I'm 4 years behind...and that's like 41 shows....so yeah i have a lot of work to do! So me and Dan were at Damn Yankeess rehearsal at the Y (oh joy oh joy) and it ended early because of the snow...so we didnt have a ride home...so were walking back to the room to see if Janna could drive us home and we find Miles. Since Janna wasnt there...we left...BUT!!!!!!!! as we were waling down the hall we suddenly heard Miles belting, no screaming...nasally...and badly.....the opening to "youre a Good Man Charlie Brown" at the top of his lungs.....needless to say we were very amused. So we listened to him sing through the whole thing and just when we thought he was done...he started over!! So we waited until he got up to "then the answer isn't clear....THEN I HEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!" and so of course Dan and I had to chime in with "CHARLIE BROWN! CHARLIE BROWN!!!!!" ...and then ran away giggling...heh. and then we found five dollars... Well if nothing else, that was worth the torture of the one hour read through...oh! and McDonalds...that was good too.... So right now Brianne and her sister "amy" are supposed to be here, but alas! there dad's a douchebag. However, we are going to visit them tomorroW@ Yay! Now I'm gonna go, cause i dont wanna write a novel...yet...::evil laughter:: Dan's forcing me to watch On Your Toes...why god why?!?!?!?! Night all! Peace. (14 Comments |Comment on this)
