I'm aching a really good ache.. dancing and running around backstage does wonders for one's muscles. Only if we could minus the pesky bratty kids out of the equation, it'd be PERFECT. And I'm sure Soph, Dom, Len and Dweeb would most certainly agree with me.
Goodness, what a weekend it's been. Complete with drama and everything. Absolutely exhilarating. Best parts, Sophie muttering about birth control pills the ENTIRE night and secretly death glaring the floor in attempt to control thy fury; the boys giving me looks of "i want to strangle them!", the dancers all miraculously making the wrong entrance and in turn making it correct and of course, the absolute euphoria of a job well done. It was a pretty wild ride.
I really want to thank the 4 of you who spent your day in the theatre with me for over 12 hours, not seeing the light of day at all. But boy, ACJC kids are damn effing' lucky. I'm just glad I got the chance to work in that setting. Dweeb looked adorable as a SM. And kudos to Len and Dweeb who were also there on Saturday with me, wrestling with string and fishing wire, I never want to fish again. Len was so enthusiastic about everything, it really was a brilliant weekend on a whole. I would not have survived without you guys there.. really. You are the unsung heroes of the show, least that's what I reckon. Love you guys, remember, lunch on me yeah? <3
Stef just came in with yet another theory of how she pulled her hamstring during her swimming years. First, she went to touch her toes but found that she couldn't. Being the strong willed person with hyper extended legs like me, she swayed backwards on her heels to touch her toes. But as her youngest sister, obviously I was going to pop her bubble, I suggested she do it against the cupboard so she wouldn't sway back. She tried and accused me of making her do an impossible feat... teehee. The joys of being a dancer. :P She also proceeded to show me some static stretch which looked like a penchée with the leg a lot lower... so I lifted my leg in which she pouted and told me, "You dancers are such freaks." . It was so cute. I love my sister, we're such oddballs it totally rocks. :D OH JOY IS BACK. :D missed that bugger while she was in London. yay.
And speaking of people coming down... ... I'm meeting Max and family at the airport later when they stop through. Pretty cool that I should see Purvi, Max's girl on Sat and him today... I'm so excited. I left the house SUPER early so I could chill with her for a bit. I missed my Indian Curry, we literally talked NON-STOP for 2 hours before I had to jet off for rehearsal, I really was SO damn tempted to pack her in my bag and keep her with me. That smart ass of a couple. I really missed her... and all the stories of everything and everyone, gahhh... I've missed a lot but it's okay, I'm just glad to hear that everyone is good. :)
Had the chance to be back in touch with couple of shanghai mates the past week and they've really helped be though a lot of things that have been going on in my mind. Plus my darling Vic who's been nothing but a dear to me. :) I love you babe. I took my portfolio pictures on Friday and I will post one up here just for the kicks. That's all for today, got to get working on the NSSN script! :D
COME WATCH NSSN on 18th!
