Day Threeeeeeee of Tech!!

Last night was AWESOME! We had a costume rehearsal and all the costumes are gorgeous!!! I am starting to warm up to everyone and it's starting to be alot of fun!! The older girls have kinda started accepting me into there little group, and the little kids love me now and climb all over me!!

Me and the guy who plays Gilbert Blythe have poking wars, and The little kids decorated foam heads for wigs with makeup.. XD

Yesterday, I had to add some more stuff to my plate. I now have to help older Diana (I am saying there stage names) quick change for the tea party with Anne! I also have to help young Ruby Gillis Unbutton the back of her dress.

Yesterday at Rehearsals, when younger Anne hit young Gilbert in the head with the slate, it BROKE!! It was really funny!! It didn't hurt him or anything. The acting is really good, and some of the parts with older Anne made me have tears. This production is going really well, and our director is really happy with it! 

Today is my sister's birthday! She is turning 12!! We are going to take her out to eat and to the mall! She is going to get a second piercing on her ears!

Tech Day 2!

Yesterday night was much more interesting, and fun! I will be watching the younger kids during the show, making sure they're quiet! We play alot of games so it's pretty fun! Plus they are all hilarious!! I haven't really talked to any of the girls my age yet.. they all are really good friends so it might take a couple more days to warm up to them. The good thing is my confidence has been growing, so that has been helping alot!

My director lets us wear pj's to rehearsal! So usually I wake up in the morning, do my school work, work outside, and then get a shower and go to tech. Last night I was there until 10! It is kinda eating up my whole life this week, but it gives me something to do and I just love doing anything with the theatre! 

I also have another job, which is helping to carry things off of stage at different times throughout the production. (Two hours long) So it's kinda crazy, watching the kids and then leaving every once in a while to help with the stage. I enjoy the commotion though because it makes me feel like I have a purpose! 

I have noticed, alot of the kids there are kinda rich and spoiled. That doesn't mean they are mean or anything like that, they are actually very nice people, but some of the girls my age look down at me just because I work on a farm and enjoy being outside all the time. *Sigh*

All together it is a great production, and I think I will start to really really enjoy it soon! How are you guys!! Anything new happening this week?!

The Horror and Awesomeness of Tech Week!

Recently I have been partying, eating food, and TRYING to make friends. It was my sisters birthday party Saturday and it was alot of fun!! But Yesterday I started something awesome that I hope I can do without getting upset..

 I started Tech week for Anne of Green Gables! I am working backstage with a friend! The hard part is making friends... because all of these people know each other really well, and I just arrived. I found it pretty easy with the younger kids because I am good with little kids, but the girls my age are always in a group and I feel so disconnected from everyone. I really need to work on my people skills. I'm the kind of person that could act on stage in front of millions of people and be ok. But if I have to confront somebody on my own, without a script, I get shaky and awkward. I'm a pretty awesome person once I've talked to someone for 5 minutes, I just need the chance to actually get to that 5 minute mark. Does anyone else have this problem? Any advice?!

Other than that the first day of Tech week was pretty cool! I hung around my friend and the little kids mostly.They did feed us doughnuts, so that was pretty awesome! Today Tech starts at 6 pm and ends at 9:30 so I am trying to work up some confidence today! Hope you guys had a great weekend! I have been working on a lot of posts, there all in draft form and not finished yet.

Adios Amigos!
