Theater People

So much has happened over the last few weeks, which is why I have not been able to blog. It was alot of theater and a goodbye to cheerleading. Oh, and did I mention that I now am 15 years of age?

First thing I want to talk about is theater people. Theater people are the greatest people in the world, in my opinion. If you feel down I say go talk to someone in theater, because we can be quiet funny. Like, everyone says oh the jocks or class-clowns are funny. No. They are inappropriate funny or they have to make fun of someone else for you to laugh. We are just straight up comedy.

I have spend the pass three weeks with only theater people. I had hell week, which is where we stay after school two nights during the week till 10:30 and go through the show twice and have a big dinner together. It was actually really fun. On Wednesday, we, the costume girls, snuck out for ice cream at cold stone. It was great to just sing with friends in the car and creep on Blake Zolfo's bill board. The bill board story is a long one that people who are not involved in Crown Point theater or other things in CP would never understand. Then Thursday was my 15th birthday. Thank you, theres no need to applaud, it was two weeks ago. I had gone to school and part of hell night that night, then my parents took me out to eat. They got me tiramisu and pasta; my favorite things are Italian. I then got some Marilyn Monroe movies and makeup as my presents. I later cryed when I found out my grandma got my tickets to see Glee live again.

Friday was opening night and it was amazing. It was alot of fun doing the boys hair and makeup then helping with quick changes and being a part of it. The cast party was fantastic. I hopped into Hayley's car, she was the senior and the lead, to go to her house. We had a great time playing games and dancing till midnight!



This is the human pyramid we made during the party. The cast party was great, and so was the performance on Saturday and the party that night too. I loved getting closer with everyone, which made closing night even harder. The rest of the performances where great and when closing night came it was really sad. First we had cry fest. Cry feast is when all the seniors get to say something to everyone and then you all ball your eyes out. I did. I am going to miss all of the seniors so much. They really were great role models to me and helped me to find myself and help me know what I want to do and be during my high school career. It really means alot that they were the type of people that didn't care that I was a freshman. They still said hi in the hall, or commented on my facebook, and offered me rides when I didn't have one. When I'm a senior I hope that a freshman will think of me the way I though of all of them. I toke pictures with a lot of people and cryed all through the night, they really are my family.

The costume girl senior gave us awards, a picture of all of us, and a little fake pink diamond. I got the award for Most Chipper, which really meant that I made people happy and they like my fashion. I think it was an important award that I made people happy. We had gave the seniors a pillow case with all of our pictures, a little sheep that they could count to fall asleep, and a big diamond (quinky dink much?). I was sick all that night so I went to the cast party for a bit, but then went home because I needed to sleep. I love theater.

This past Wednesday I had my cheer banquet. It was fun to see the girls, because I hadn't talked to mostly all of them in a while with theater. We had received awards. I had got what I believe are the best awards. They might not be about athletics but there about who you are as a person and I'm proud of myself. I got Most Spirit, Best Sportsmanship, and Most Respectful. I really wanted most spirit because I am such a chipper person.

Thursday I had one act auditions. One acts are small plays that are around 10 minutes on average. At Crown Point the senior thespians direct them. I had auditions with Shannon. She is one of my best friends; we met through theater camp in 6th grade and have been super close ever since. So we knew that we would be comfortable together and help each other out. So the whole time she was like that was great, yeah do it like that and at the end I was like they loved you, your totally in. We sounded like models praising each other on not eating the day before a photo shoot, we were so cute.

We went in to audition and our script was barely any words. So we did it the way it would be normally. Then they asked us to do it a different way. They wanted Shannon to be a fortune teller and me to be over dramatic but sweet. So we performed it again and Shannon was really funny. Only as I walked out I felt like I did terrible. I went home to my mom and was just so upset and kept thinking of all the things I should have done.

Yesterday the list went up and I was super nervous. Only as I approached the list I saw my name and I just thought omg I made one!! Then I looked and it was the lead in Paige, a costume girl senior, and Hayley, who I loves, one act! Hayley was there and she goes your my Cinderella!! I was so excited I screamed, and wanted to cry then hugged Hayley. Good news, almost like all of my friends made it!! Such as Shannon, my friend Alexis, and the costume girls: Elizabeth, Maddie, Sarah, Nina, and Anna. I am so excited.

My one act is going to be really funny. I cant tell you anything because I want my momma and daddy to be surprised when they see it and they might read this but maybe I will have someone record it when we perform and put it on here for those who enjoy creeping on my life. After finding out I made it and having a meeting I went on a date with Hayley, Paige, and another girl in my one act named Katie. We went to DQ and got stalked by a creepy man. It was extremely fun and I really enjoyed hanging out with new people. I cant wait to enjoy being back in theater. I will keep you all posted on my daily life activities, and because it is spring break more blog post will be coming to you soon.

Love,

Madi aka Cinderella

P.S. I am so sorry for using the word like alot in this post. I was reading through and I said it when it was not needed only I am to tired to change it. Sorry if it annoys you that  I am not using proper grammar, even though I never do.
