no point to the title.
moving on.
this is gonna be one of those scattered blogs. oh yes. yes it is.
so hold on tight babies.
let me start by saying i have a new favorite actress:
amanda seyfried.
you have got it goin on in so many ways it's scary.
the range you have shown thus far...is admirable.
if you've not seen 'Chloe' you should.
it's so disturbingly beautiful.
and her performance blew me away.
she is one to watch.
i am currently in one of the heaviest forms of PSD (post show depression) i've ever experienced.
for those of you who don't know.
i've had one helluva semester.
along with being IN a show.
i was also a crew head for ANOTHER show.
but it was faces like this that made me sane.
every.
single.
day.
and more. trust me. plenty more. but too many pictures is annoying.
just sayin.
i've always equated being a play like being in a relationship.
when you audition...it's like a first date.
if you get a callback...it's like a second date.
and then you see the cast list...and it's official.
the first few weeks of the rehearsal process are similar to a new relationship because you are so wide-eyes and excited. you're constantly learning about your character, your cast mates, your director, all of it.
and then you go into tech, where hopefully, you have created a solid foundation.
and then there is the run of the show.
the wonderful, stressful, exciting, exhilarating run of the show.
and then there is strike. and then it's over.
it's bittersweet because hopefully you have not only fallen for your new theatre family, but you have grown because of them.
it's like the most beautiful breakup you can encounter.
it still hurts once it's over. but you know that you are better for having been a part of it.
ok. this is getting long.
so. for now.
i bid you adieu.
bye bloggers.

Words cannot describe how much I love this post.
First, yes-I have a MASSIVE girl crush on Amanda Seyfried both for her talent and her gorgeousness, I mean-yeah, how can you not?
2nd- the way you described being in a play is absolutely perfect. But I'm sorry you're going through PSD. It's really the worst.
And 3rd-that last picture blows my mind by how adorable you look. Just sayin'.
Love you boo.
Um, yes... I did in fact sit on the verge of tears this whole post as flashbacks of shows flew through my brain.
You have a wonderful relationship with words.
