sooo, a grip has happened since the alst time i wrote. i should write about tour, but thats so epic it needs proper time, like an hour or two, which i dont have. so in a nutshell, we had some intense things go down, and we pwned the sort of non existant competition. at least it was a tour to remember :]
hmm so anyways, i had this long talk with pope today. i love just chillen in his class during his prep and talking about who knows what. so we talked about life and college and the extreme standards many people are put up against and how scpa will be wack for a while, but then get focused and weed out the little gremlins that dont want to be here. and then we got into college. oh boy. haha. that was intense. talked just about everything, admissions, east vs. west, that kind of deal.
then pope told me something thats super obvious, but still hit me. like, june 16 is the last day we’ll see two thirds of our class. maybe even more.
scary thought.
peopoe dont usually put it in those terms since you know the summer is time for chillen, but think about it. biiig possibility that june 16th will be the last day of any contact with alot of people.
its depressing. i love so many people at scpa, but it is hard to keep in touch with every single person youre friends with now in the next year. i have become friends with so many people at scpa, and its hard to think that youre leaving this place youve been at for so long. and still, i have yet to meet and talk to alot of people, especially this one person. deng me for being the “non initiative taker at the wrong moments” kind of person.
hmm, well the year is not over. enjoy it while the cookie’s warm.
already?

so, last musical of the year is over. quite surreal. i remember being super stressed out when lauren and i got in the show and how we wanted to quit. hahah. soo glad we didnt do that.
this was a unique show, no doubt. the script, the music, the direction, and the cast. not something you come by every show you’re in. thinking about it, urinetown really summed up what scpa was about for me. random ass days, pullouts, breaking out into whatever song thats in you, sharing laughs, comments, and dances with cast, crew, and directors alike, talking about how unjust life and society is and stuffing it all in one big satirical piece of art work, and becoming friends with people you would have never associated with until a random circumstance like this. my scpa life in a nutshell was the whole process of urinetown and the actual show urinetown, just without the death.
last night was a huge wake up call. the year’s ending. something that once felt so far away is in sight, and none of us are ready for it, even if they think they are. we’re all not ready. i know i’m not.
i mean, yeah, we’re all over the petty drama, the retarted educational system, and the wack authority. but, we’re going off into life now. a new system to live by, or no system to live by. are we prepared to wake up and not have the normalcy of mark and john blasting the music at lunch? cloteal talking back at barbolla, bethany singing her heart out, al hugging up on anything that moves, the sarcasm of L7, hearing the tunes of jazz band, watching your friends in the little theater, walking to taco fiesta and jack in the box before shows, being pulled out and watching the teachers freak out cuz the whole class is gone, trippin over messed up schedules on the first day of school, knowing pretty much everyone in your class even if youve never talked to them, seeing people in the walkways and knowing all their personal business because of the rampaging gossip around school and youve never met them, representing for your class in november, watching the upper classmen graduate.
dude, we’re the ones the the white gowns. we’re shaking hands with the principal, we’re listening to our peers make speeches, and loooking out from the circle of the sun at our crying parents, because many of us are leaving to go off to pursue something so much more different than scpa.
we all see the light at the end. we can feel the emotions that will lead up to that light. but, are we prepared for it?
