opening night
well, in all honesty the performance was great, only a few minor mishaps that i doubt if anyone in the audience even noticed, and surprisingly enough i didn't laugh at my own jokes or trip or fall or anything, so i was uber proud of myself.
a few of my friends came to watch and i was excited that they came to support, but i have to say i DID WARN THEM about the content of the play...my deepest fears about this play were definately realized in the after-show comments of "wow mel, that was definately not you" and things of that nature...which is true, it's not me, hence it's called ACTING but they still said i did a good job, which i mean what else were they going to say but i think they really meant it..and plus i got flowers, beautiful stunning gorgeous smelling flowers which i absolutely adore! even if they sat there thinking "o my goodness what is this?" the whole time, at least they could see what i had been spending ALL MY TIME doing these past months
boy am i going to be glad when it's over...my hair can not take much more of this and i'm starting to loath makeup...and sobe! (different story) but i think for all my hard work and time spent, that in truth i am enjoying myself, i do like the cast and crew very very much and i think that sometimes stretching out of your comfort zone to do something you enjoy doing isn't a bad thing...i mean yes i definately wouldn't recommend the faint of heart seeing it and yea it's pretty embarassing, but that's the whole point, sometimes you have to just get out there and do it you know, just let yourself get excited and go for it!
