No sooner than when I blogged that previous blog, I was semi-invited to go to Lady Gaga's concert tour. Semi-invited, because I'm 2nd roster, but the thought alone made me feel so good that my negativity was wiped clean for that day. I'd be lying if I said I didn't wanna go, but I want the original party to go, because they've probably been looking forward to it even longer than I have :D
Either way, I definitely want to go to another concert at some point or maybe see a play at the Mann =P I wish Sweeney Todd was in town again!! Then again, looking at ticket prices for plays and concerts makes me change my mind. $88 dollars minimum to go see West Side Story?! Holy crappppp, but then again, maybe it's because it's West Side Story that it's priced that way. One day, I will go!
Even though it's been like 5 years since I stopped dancing, I would probably give anything to be in the Nutcracker again! It was definitely a once in a lifetime experience that I got to experience 3 times, so I guess I'm cursed for 3 lifetimes to be unable to perform in it again =P I loved the costumes and meeting actual professionals, even if they reeked of cigarettes and powdered flesh. The rehearsals and practices and knowing I was part of an actual Barbara B Mann ballet =) The fact I got to skip school to go to rehearsals and the school couldn't do anything about it - I felt like a rock-star, like I was actually someone meaningful and worthwhile. Maybe that makes me weird for taking such satisfaction in knowing I'm necessary and special, but I'm pretty sure a majority of people are also that way.
BTW, how kick-ass would it be to have that room in the picture? It's my dream room for sure, minus the horse picture, but even that I could get over if I could actually live in that room. Ah well, I'll continue living in my dream world and hope one day when I own a house, I can have my bedroom look like this =]

You know the Lion King is coming to the Mann? I saw it in NY and it was SO GOOD!!!
ReplyDeletehaha that'd be expensive too!! I've never really seen Lion King, except at Disney World, but I'm pretty sure that doesn't count!
