Second night slump...NOT!!!

Usually we have to deal with second night slump, but last night was definitely not the case. I was really pumped up and ready to kick it, but that was because Melissa and Jeremy came to the performance, and they brought Seth and Alta with them. It was cool to see them again.

There were no glitches in Act 1 and my scenes went smoothly, as did the costume changes. I was a little worried about Kari because she was dizzy before the performance, but she was okay. Act 2 went smoothly as well, and afterward I met up with Seth, Alta, Melissa, and Jeremy. They gave me a card and a plant. It's the first time I've received flowers after a drama performance, ever, so I was pretty stoked.

After changing back into my street clothes, I went with Melissa and Jeremy to Tee's where they treated me to a shake and then the three of us shared Jeremy's banana split (which was awesome, btw!). We stayed there for about thirty minutes, and Melissa prompted me to tell Jeremy that I was thinking about going out for the Nauvoo Pageant next year. The incidents during rehearsal just drove home the fact that I need to do a drama production with others like me for once, good Mormon people.

I kinda felt bad that I ditched my castmates, but Brooke understood why I was leaving with my friends last night. I only see Jeremy once a week, plus I haven't seen him at all this summer, and I'm lucky if I get to see Melissa more than once in a while since she's no longer going to our branch.

Today's our last performance and it's a matinee. Mom's coming to this one, so I'm pumped up once again. I'm going to kick it one more time, after going to branch choir practice and sacrament meeting in Iowa City of course. :)

Slan go foill...
