:: Purposeful Death Overhead ::

okay, so a short update on the actual callback...

yeah...i don't think it went to well....

I spoke to Dan yesterday after improv (the last improv, oh the tragedy!). He told me that they would probably want me as a pickalittle woman. That was one of the 6-7 songs we were given to choose from, with little range and extremely difficult articulation. Its crazy. But he told me that since at this point they're looking for the people who suit specific roles, I should just do the song, they could always ask me to do another. You should have seen me yesterday and today. The song basically goes "pick a little, talk a little, pick a little, talk a little, cheep, cheep, cheep, talk a lot pick a little more." I was screwing up artic. every other time i did it. Actually I came up with a cute routine which included imitating birds with my hands on the "cheeps." (thats quite a bad ezplanation, but w/e.) Anyway, after I'd been completely behind on the dancing (though i actually had memorized most of it!), I got up there and sang it, with the piano kinda trailing behind me...i was really fast, and I didn't screw up! I tried some "hand cheeps" (ill call them such) but i dunno... I couldn't really remember what I'd done in terms of choreography b/c it went by so quickly, though a few people told me it had been cute, and one of the judges started cheeping every time he went by me. lol.
I actually met some really cool people at the audition. Guys named Spencer and Gil(?) and girl named Kelly. It was wonderful having someone to talk to in a room of people I'd never met...though actually, I recognized this guy named Randy whose Halloween party Dana had dragged me and Ron to. ( What a terrible night...) Anyhoo, I ask him, " you do MTC right," (and he's like the best dancer ever apparently,) and I go "I've definatly been to you're house." That was quite an amusing look I got from him before I explained why/how...etc.
Okay, so i didn't make the second cut, which I expected, because thoses seem to be call backs for the leads, and having sung the pickalittle song, I was realizing my not being a lead due to lack of experiance. But that's not a bad part at all! And that's how you move up, first you get small parts then bigger...

Oy, so I missed getting inducted b/c i didn't get my points appeal letter, and I'm behind on sooo many things (including tests....) My grades are amusing I must say. I gotta get prom stuff together, and the possibility of beach week, and also possibly study for my last 3 IB exams? Possibly. Not sure yet.
