k_puffI know, I know. I rarely, if ever, post about my own personal life anymore...not because I don't want to it's just... I'm lazy. I admit. T__T But this is too big a deal to not post about.
I got cast as a lead in my school's musical.
Finally. After four years of planning and contriving and taking chances and waiting and hoping and planning some MORE, I've finally done it! Since 7th grade, when CHS did "Pirates of Penzance" and I turned to my mom during intermission and said "I want to do THAT," being a lead in a CHS musical has been all I ever wanted.
I can't... it's so surreal.
The musical is "State Fair", and I'm going to play Melissa Frake, the mother. I'm working with Andrew as my husband, which I am SO relieved about, because I know Andrew, and he's fantastic, and he'll be so much better to act off of than some of the other people that were called back, and... AUGH. XD
The casting isn't perfect, of course, because nothing is, but for right now? It doesn't matter that I'm sick with a fever and a proverbial knife in my throat. It doesn't matter that I have a huge singing competition tomorrow that I'm going to do horribly in it DUE to the fact of aforementioned sickness. It doesn't matter that I've trained for months for this competition, and that I was generally expected to do exceedingly well in it.
Honestly? I really don't care about any of that right now. I really don't.
Because I got a lead in the musical. Finally. FINALLY. Singing competition be damned, I've already gotten my prize.
