hoo-ah!
Last Thursday evening I went to watch a show at Century High School in Hillsboro directed by my friend Lexie Walker. It was a great show and I really want to direct it here at Fox for an Alpha Psi Omega project my senior year maybe...Hmm...
ANYway, after the show I went to Red Robin with Lex, Cressa, Lex's A.D. Aaron, and one of the cast members, Slappy. Pretty much I fell in love with Slappy and as a result, with all theatre people in the world. He is the quintessential gay theatre boy who is wonderful and who sings show-tunes and who I wanted to take home with me, but alas no. It's great to have someone to look forward to outside of Fox.
The best part of the whole night was that from the time Cressa and I pulled into the high school parkinglot at 7:40, to the time we got in the car to drive home after dinner around 10:30(ish), I didn't once think about the problems that have been consuming my mind lately; I dropped the load that's been strapped to my back for the past 1 1/2 months and it feels wonderful because even though I've glanced back at it once or twice, I haven't put it on again and I don't think I want to. For those who don't know, I'm refering to some troubles I've been having with a particular young man at Fox. After that night though, after laughing at a tipsy Lexie and taking pictures of Cressa and making a new friend in Slappy...after all of that, I don't see the point in killing myself over the unintentional heartbreak that this boy has given me. All it took was one evening outside of Newberg, completely cut off from the places and people that remind me of him, not to forget about our "problems", but to just walk away from them and retrospectively see what there is to be learned. It's nights like that that make me want to take all of my close friends and move into a giant penthouse apartment in New York and go to Broadway shows and watch Shakespeare in the park and live the dream life that every Broadway-baby wishes they could live.
FYI Cressa, I'm coming to stay with you in NYC for spring break next year. Just so you know. ;0)
