^^ Me and Adri at the mall
^^ Some of the cast/crew First of all, congratulations to Coty Nino and Megan Gaitan for getting honorable mention. Congratulations to Ricky Cardwell, Adriana Hinojosa, and Andrew Nino for getting all-star cast. Congratulations to Lloyd Sutherland for getting honor crew. Last but not least, congratulations to Gregory Portland with the cast of "For Better" and to Miller with the cast of "The Diviners" for advancing to the next round of U.I.L. One Act Competiion. (Even though both schools used things that should have disqualified them).
We did really good A.C.J., but we just didn't come out on top and that's okay... it's just ONE judge's opinion. It's a play, it isn't life and it definately won't kill us. The drama that went down thursday evening after the awards (and I'm not saying drama as in the performances) was HIGHLY unnecessary and way out of line. Sometimes you aren't the best and when you finally get told by someone that another is better than you at something, you don't have to make a scene about it. Your scene was better than some of your acting on stage. Maybe if you put that emotion into some of the moments in the actual play you would have recieved a better honor. The "queen" was finally pulled off her high horse and she couldn't take it. The person who "out did" her truly was trying to just be nice and truly did just want to take a picture with her. She wasn't trying to "rub it in your face" as you say. Sometimes people need to grow up a little, that type of attitude won't get you places in life.
Overall though, it was a pretty fun day. Aside from the drama and the unprofessional workers at pizza hut, I had a blast. That's what it's really all about. The most important thing was having fun. Though it would have been really nice to advance, part of me is glad we didn't. No HUGE drama with it now, and I don't have to stress over making rehearsal. Going to the mall and hanging out was really fun with the crew and everything really was just one big party.
Again, Congrats to G.P. and Miller and break a leg this upcoming thursday.
