Hello all my lovies! Yes, it has been seven months since I last posted a blog, but I'm still around! So what has happened in the life of me since I last posted? Well (and these aren't really in order):

• My understudy role wasn't needed in Cinderella, but it was still an awesome show
• I went through a bit of a depression after Cinderella ended
• My mom and I found two three week old kittens by the side of the road (someone dumped them), named them Mimi and Tinkerbell, and adopted them (pictures to come)
• I auditioned for another show and got rejected
• I started high school (and I hate it)
  
• I had my high school's show and was cast as a showgirl (Crazy For You...maybe a few pics of that too)
• I made district chorus (as a FRESHMAN! that doesn't really happen and made me really happy)
• I auditioned for another show with the same theatre that rejected me the first time, and was cast as a featured dancer (Music Man)
• I got completely hooked on Twilight
• I saw the Twilight movie and hated it
• Obama got elected (hooray!)

And that's all really worth noting. I've missed you guys, I've just been too busy to post lately. Not that I'll get any comments on this, because I just don't really get that many comments.

ADIOS CHICOS Y CHICAS

So some of you might remember how I was all excited when I got that callback for the step-sisters in Cinderella, then when I was depressed because I didn't get it. Well now I have some good news. I've been made the understudy with a week 'til the show. I'm memorizing lines, songs, and blocking now. There's a 99% chance the girl playing Portia (the step-sister I'm understudying) will be at the show and everything will be fine, but our director doesn't want to get caught next Thursday without a Portia. So this is pretty exciting even though odds are I'm not going to be doing anything.

I can't believe I only have a little more than a week left with these people! I've made so many friends, the prince, the two step-sisters, the godmother, Cinderella, the steward, a lot of my fellow chorus girls! ARGH! I'm going to miss them so much.

And this is also a note to let you guys know I'm still alive. So I'd appreciate a comment or two.
