Chewing Gum & Graphite.

There was one awkward pause in the show on Friday but Adam and Ty came to see it and then on Saturday so many people came and it was overwhelming. Alexis got me flowers and my parents took the two of us out to lunch and I got a lot of hugs and sometimes I question why I want to be an actor because it’s difficult and uncertain and I get so nervous sometimes but then I do a performance like we did on Saturday and I remember why.

train rides and memorizing lines and Words With Friends (and family) and delicious food and I wish I could eat my aunt’s stuffing every single day and psychedelic music and Philadelphia and beautiful weather and Stephen Sondheim and walking and hanging out with Seamus and laughing and Retrospect and AIDS Thrift and procrastinating as usual and trying not to feel weird and sneaking into Gallatin through Tisch to rehearse even though the former is technically closed on Sundays (which was thrilling) and costumes and progress and not wanting it to ever be Monday.

I GOT A PART IN A PLAY, GUYS. A PLAY WITH ONLY THREE CHARACTERS. AND I GOT A PART. I AM SO STOKED.
