One thing I forgot to put in the previous post!!!

Also on Wednesday, I am going in to read/audition for the role of Coco in Coco's Diary at the History Theatre! Coco is 13, so I might be to young but they asked me to come anyways. The show will perform for the governor at his mansion!

School's FINALLY out!!!!!!!

I'm so excited school is finally out!

I will give you some updates before I tell you about our vacation : ) ...

1. Tomorrow I have a callback for A Christmas Story at Children's Theater.

2. Wednesday I have my first rehearsal for Music Man at North Como.

3. Music Man runs throughout the summer.

4. In August I start rehearsals for Cat on a Hot Tin Roof at Torch Theater, which has Tech Week on my FIRST WEEK IN SEVENTH GRADE!!!! (uh-oh...)

5. I plan on spending my summer doing some pretty awesome stuff... that was kinda random...

Anyways! About our vacation...

WE ARE DRIVING TO NEW YORK! We are leaving on June 26th and driving to Ohio to stay with my Aunt for a night, then driving out to New York to stay with my Uncle! Yay!

We will be gone for about ten day's. But the best part is... I am seeing Wicked on Broadway! Yippee!! I will also be seeing American Idiot because my brothers and I all love Green Day!

I'm also really excited because then the morning after American Idiot, we are getting a tour backstage of Wicked! It's something called Behind the Emerald Curtain, where cast members come show you around backstage! I'm SO excited! The only bad thing about this vacation is being stuck in the car with my brothers for 20 hours! Yuk! Oh well... It'll still be AWESOME!

Anyways, I will update soon about A Christmas Story...

Updates!

Here are some more updates!

Right now I am having a great time just relaxing and spending time at home (I'm re-doing my room!), but once school starts I will be busy again.

I'm going into Junior High, and unfortunately I will be in the midst of the show "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof"with Torch Theater the month that I start in my new school!

Yesterday I auditioned for "Oliver" with Rosetown Playhouse, and I have a callback tomorrow.

If I don't get in to Oliver I will audition for "The Music Man"

I'm Sorry To Say It, But it is True...

Yup. I have Strep Throat (I might have Pink Eye to but we are not sure). Merrick has Pink Eye. And it looks like Stryker has Strep too.

We stayed home from school yesterday (I had to miss a Dance Contest at school! My group came in 3rd). Then in the afternoon the 3 of us went to the doctor. There Stryker and I got tested for Mono and Strep. Merrick, we found out, definitely has Pink Eye, and I definitely have Strep Throat (but no Mono). However, Stryker was negative for both Mono and Strep (even though his Throat was more red than mine), but they are sending his 'something or other' from the throat swab to get cultured... or something... anyways, he almost definitely has Strep too.

So last night I missed my first performance EVER. The understudy understudies all the girls in the cast, but I am the youngest one (obviously) which means all my characters are age seven and under... keep in mind the understudy is a teen. It must have been pretty weird because at one point I play a four year old, and my MOTHER and FATHER are played by teenagers!!!

Anyways, I'm going to my show tonight. I feel much better and it must because of at least one of the medicines I took last night (ha). I first took medicine for Strep (the boys had to take it to just in case). Then approximately 3 hours later I took a ROUND pill (it was actually like a little ball... it was odd) , then I took NightQuil half an hour later, and slept quite well. Hopefully my show won't make my throat hurt so much that I lose my voice!!!!

Watching American Idol

We are halfway through the run of Sister Kenny's Children at the History Theatre, and it's going really well. It ends in a couple weeks and then I have a BUSY week!

It's not for a couple more weeks but...

Sunday: S.K.C. closes. Valentines Day.

Monday: No school. PERCY JACKSON MOVIE COMES OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!! Audition with my friend Tessa for 'Alice in Wonderland' at the Heritage Theatre.

Tuesday: Audition for 'The Magic Pot' at Stepping Stone Theatre (which goes to NEW YORK for a weekend!).

Wednesday: School

Thursday: School

Friday: School Talent Show!

So I guess that week I will be doing a lot of singing...

(About the title... I am typing while watching AMERICAN IDOL!!!!)

(Another thing...) Tomorrow (Wednesday) I am shadowing at Murray Jr. High because I might do there for seventh grade!
