Ok, so my theatre arts class is my favorite class, so I'm pretty excited about a play that we're going to be doing for the Christmas season. It's called "The Christmas Reunion", which means that it's just a big reunion...of Mother Goose and Christmasy characters. I guess the whole point of it is that all the characters are giving presents to Father Christmas, or whatever. I'm actually pretty excited, though because it is cute and..*drum roll*...I've been casted as Curly Locks! Didn't know too much about that nursery rhyme, but since I have curly hair, what the hey. But, I did google her and I guess the whole point of the rhyme is to show the beauty of curls. It's about some guy asking for her and she says no and that she just wants to eat strawberries and cream. Yep...I'd rather eat strawberries and cream too. But yeah, I'm happy-I have a cute vintage dress that's green; it would go great with my part. But hell, teach still wants all of us to pimp our lines up a bit, so it should be better. But anyway, I've been in one play before. It was a little hard, because I found myself giggling. But, the whole reason I took this class was to overcome my anxiety about people. I swear, I've had plenty of panic attacks just over talking to people, or being in places where there are alot of people. I remember one time, when I was going into the gas station and I literally freaked out! All I was getting was suckers! ARGHHH! But yeah, I promised myself that I would do my best in this class...I've done well. Sometimes, if I'm scared of getting up in front of people, I imagine that I'm a big time actress. It definitely helps! But yeah, I've done good...I got my report card today. Straight A's. I don't know why this started happening, but it really takes a load of stress off. That's for sure. I remember when I was a freshman(which seems eons ago)I got mostly B's and C's. I mean sure, screwing up that year has really lowered my GPA, but I'm happy that I'm doing better. I just didn't care. Now I do...mmm, my hair smells like strawberries and cream. Well, better get off of here before the teacher catches me.

Sooo, I went to see an amazing play at a private college Saturday. Oedipus Rex it was called. Which was pretty cool because I had to perform that same play in my theatre arts class. *Love*. Anyway, it was cool, only I didn't get home until close to midnight. Thanks to Kayla, though, I had a great and memorable time! See, we were at a college with some other people in my theatre class and,of course, we were boy watching, ya know? Well, we saw this gorgeous guy, but it was sooooo weird! His whole family looked like rats! It definitely did not look right. We kept checking him out trying to get his attention, but instead of him looking at us his stupid rat dad kept turning around and looking in our direction every time that we would look in the beautiful guy's direction. I remember I told Kayla, "Kayla, he's like the cheese and eventually they're going to eat him! We need to kidnap him and get him the hell out of here!" We eventually did get his attention and he kept looking our way, but we never did get to his rescue. Oh well, i would have crapped if his family started hissing at us! But, there was something else! There was this really weird group of college kids and this one guy within the group had this HUGE stuffed duck. I have no idea what would posess him to bring it to a pretty serious play, but he sat it sown next to one of my friends. She didn't notice it at first, but when she did she freaked out. It was hilarious. Man, it was some weird and wild stuff!!! I tell you what though, I can't wait to meet the characters that will be at my college!
