Geez, busy day, and I just felt like writing...
Today was sooo freakin' busy, yet awesome! I'd have to say maybe the high point was getting to be this EVIL sea witcxh in rehearsal..i get to take over for the original sea witch for december b/c today was my last day as Arial and now Erin's taking over... However, I can't help but think, I wish I was still Arial...
I mean, when I found out I was Arial and THEN the Snowman in my studio's Ballet The Adventure's of Rudolf (I was dying to be a reindeer b/c then get to go on pointe). I was soooo angry. I thought, why the hell do I always seem to get the part that kids love most. "Arial! Your my FAVorite princess!" "Sing something Arial!" "Oh my daughter's star struck" "Can I have a hug?" "Can I have your autograph?" "Could you please take some pictures with these two girls right here?" "Mommy! I want a playdate with Arial! Arial, will you come eat lunch with us??" "Is that your real hair?" and also... "FROSTY!!! Through some snowballs over here!" "Back here!" "Wow mom Look! It's really Frosty!!!"
...and b4 this I was Gretel in Hansel & Gretel & b4 that Jasmine is Aladdin! I mean, IT GETS OLD.
I wanted a REAL part, one I could really sink my teeth into. It was actually more difficult b/c during real life I had to fake all this happiness and then had to do it even MORE exaggerated during the shows!
So needless to say, I was exstatic when I found out I got to be puuure eeevil and scare the crap out of those kids for the entire month of December...:-)...le sye...
-Like during rehearsal, I scared the shit out of everyone, NO ONE expected me to be this evil and give the original (who was amazing) sea witch a run for her money. I found myself releasing all my stressors out in this. Pure joy in the end.
However...I look at Erin & I think in my head "no no! You've gotta do it THIS way! and move THIS way!" I just want to program her into doing it as I had done...and...the kiss I had once dreaded...is now aallll hers. No, I do NOT have a cruch on the 22 year old prince...ok, well, like a "lil' girl" crush, where as it wouldn't break my heart or anything if he gotta gf...like, I don't really like him...just in that lil girl way we all used to...but oh well...I think I look much more attractive in that all-black dress, and a sexy glare over towards him and the mermaid...
