I LOVE <3 unruly children!!!!

So today I was at crew and I was just sitting with my friends talking about god knows what... My Mom called me and asked me to come and try to get my sister to go to music rehearsal, she of course had other plans and did not want to go (she became very unruly and annoying!) It took me about ten minutes to get her to the room and she would not even go in to the room once we got there and she ran away crying and then they left for home! I have a great sister!

I Love Field Trips!!!

Today I went on a field trip to the Maryland State Captial. Overall a good way to spend a day from school. It started off as a semi long bus ride which was okay but boring! When we got to the State House we had to stand outside and wait for the other bus to show up, it was raining - enough said. We sat in on the House of Delegates which was intresting. I was so surprised because everything was so informal! It was like they were back in high school and they did not have a care in the world! After that we went on a tour of the State House which was real boring! After that we went to lunch and got ICE CREAM!!!!!

Oh Pretty Days!

Spring Awakening Music!

So I have the soundtrack to Spring Awakenining and listen to it all the time. I read in the Spring Awakening book In The Flesh that the songs do not push the plot but are thoughts of the charcter singing it. I think that is such a fresh approach to a musical because times have changed and people are tired of the same thing over again (the story and plot have changed but the music has not!). I am the Asst. Stage Manager for my schools production of Oliver! and the thing bothers me the most about the show (besides how lame it is) is the music it does nothing for the plot who the hell cares that guys name is Bill Sykes and we are going to run and hide when we see him... no no no!!! O well rant done!

Washington DC

So today I went to DC it was pretty fun! I got to spend some time with my family outside my house which was nice! Overall it was pretty good adventure, the best part of the big adventure was how freaked out my younger sister was of the city! It was not just DC but New York and Baltimore. Any ways it was nice way to spend a Saturday!

RENT Filmed LIVE on Broadway

I am so excited to see this movie for the first time. I have to say this movie is going to make or break RENT for me. I have of course seen the movie and loved it (it stared a small obsession). I saw the stage production in Baltimore last year and hated it! I think which made me hate it was the fact that the actors were so bad, they just went through the motions. Going through the motions is so lame, when someone pays $60.00 a ticket they expect it to be good! The thing about the stage production that bothered me the most was that the plot was so hard to follow and did not really flow. After seeing the show live it slowed down the opsession but that does not mean I do not want to see the final show of RENT, so I am off to get my copy!!!!! Bye!!!!
