Damn the old ladies!
Sep. 27th, 2003 10:46 amWhooo. Yesterday was a pretty good day. Got out at 11am, yay for Freshman Field Day. Global was normal (want to get to 1832....blah), finished the book "Speak" in homeroom, chem was boring, gym was UBER boring since Shannon wasn't there. Passed my spanish test (83, but still!). But that class sucked too XP At least it was a half an hour.
After dismissal, I met Michael, forced him to come over my house. We first went for pizza with a crapload of other classmates, and then took the train back to my house. One of our classmates set off a battery or lighter or SOMETHING on the train platform and it exploded and made a flamethrower for a moment. That was cool, but a bit scary (someone REALLY coulda gotten burned). We then met Nick (wonder what time he got to my house? @@ Sorry if I was too late ^_^;;; ) and went into my house. Played some KH. Then Tadas came over, and we played more games and watched some flash video. 'Badger badger badger badger badger badger badger badger badger badger badger badger Mushroom! Mushroom!' ...Yeah. Michael left around 3, as did Tadas (for piano lessons). Nick and I sat around for a bit chatting then watched Nightmare Before Christmas. I forced him to watch it, anyway XD Not like there was anything else to do. Then we went to Wendys for some food, met Tadas there, came back home. Nick left shortly after, and I got ready to go to the city.
Went to the train station with Tadas and my dad, sadly parted with Tadas (STUPID ASS WHY DID YOU GO ON THE OTHER TRAIN WHY COULDNT YOU WAIT UNTIL MY TRAIN CAME I MISS YOU I LOVE YOU *sob*). Took the F train to 47th, then went to 45th to show my dad the stage door for the Majestic (well, the alleyway leading to it). After that, we picked up our tickets. Yep. PHANTOM OF THE OPERA. Row C. Seats 105 and 106. CENTER. FUGGIN. ORCHESTRA. WHOOOO. Talk about luck. We had time to waste (like, an hour) so we rested a bit by the Mariott Marquis and I chatted with Tadas a bit via the cell phone. Eventually we went back to the theater, took our seats, yadda yadda yadda. I was SO close. And a KID WAS SITTING IN FRONT OF ME! SO I SAW THE STAGE PERFECTLY! So happy. So very happy. I'm wondering if the girl playing Christine noticed that I wasn't even LOOKING at her at all in "Think of Me" (Raoul's in the top-right part of the stage. Much better eye candy XP). But Act I was great. The chandelier falling DIRECTLY above you is so cool. Intermission, chatted with Tadas a bit again. Then Act II. Tadas, I can't even watch THAT part of Masquerade without giggling. Ummm. Oh yeah. Near the end. Raoul's supposed to jump off a platform into a trap door. But he didn't, and ran offstage instead. I made a mental note to ask John about that. Show eventually ended, cried, cheered, didn't stand up till Hugh came onstage though (I didn't want to be the only one giving a standing ovation for John. He'd think I was a psycho XD if he doesn't already). Then I headed to the stage door. Think some people from Avenue Q were there, but I wouldn't know. Waited about 10-15 minutes. Patricia Phillips, who plays Carlotta, comes out. Looks at me. And goes "Hey, don't I know you?" And I'm like "Yeeeep, we've met before XP" so I get her autograph and she asks me some questions. Do I sing, where I live, how old I am, do I study it...Then as I give the last answer, I see John and grin madly. Patricia turns around, smiles, and is all "Well there's Raoul!" and heads out. John walks over and gives me a big hug. I then step back afterwards and slam into an old lady. Way to make an impression. But oh well. I chatted with John for a while, asked him about the platform jumping thing (he finished my question as I was asking it XD). Turns out that the platform didn't level itself enough so he could jump, so he waited as long as possible before having to run offstage. He said it's only happened twice before. Then I talked to him about the upcoming movie. We're both pretty happy about it, and hope that the movie will be a success and bring people to see the show. We both had a bit of a laugh over the Erik/Raoul swordfight, though. He also mentioned he wanted to be part of the movie. God. If he was Raoul in the movie, I'd see it thousands of times. Ah well, I think of it this way. If he was in the movie, he'd be filming, and I might have never met him. We then said goodbye, and I headed to the train station with my dad and came home.
Whooooo. Good day, good day. Tadas is away for the weekend, though =\ Will try to survive somehow.
