COMPANY!!!!!

AAAaaaaAAArrGGGhhH
today the MOST horrible and yet the most amazing thing happened to me,
but before i get into details theres a few things i'd like to mention before

first things first,
cheerleading yesterday was super!
u had to do again in pairs, but instead of a dance off u just had to walk in the centre of the room
im thinkin in a really perky way, with u know hip shakes and stupid things like that
and the ones who did it the best got to use the pompoms first,
and guess who did,
none other but urs truly of course!
mwahahahahahahahhahahahahahaha
tak sia-sia being categorised as gedik in Al-Amin for all those years,heh

last Saturday we went for a day trip to York and OMG it was awesome
its this quaint little town with tiny cobblestone streets and small shops and old buildings
first we went to the minestry or church or whuteva and climbed this round narrow staircase which can only fit ONE person for 15 to 20 minutes sampai kaki nak patah
but we were rewarded by the most amazing view
then we bought pastries and ate it by the fountain and met this cute typically british old lady
and went to the food market where i bought turkish delight and italian biscuits and dried fruits and raspberry flavoured cherries and spinach florentines and yorkshire curt tart and hot cross buns
it was WICKED
then we went to the castle museum where they had these costumes from olden days and they even had the first edition of VOGUE!
and an authentic victorian street with victorian shops and victorian classrooms,
there was also a viking festival the day went so we got to see a viking battle reenacted and i tool pictures with vikings,not young ones tho urgh
BUT i fulfilled my dream of meeting vikings, now i only need to find cajun men haha
Lastly we went to Betty's tearoom!
its this pretty posh english tearoom where u actually had to queue to get a sit!
And inside everything was pretty and the food was amazing
we had tea with scones and strawberry jam and clotted cream which was again,AMAZING
it caused us a pretty penny but im guessing because its a real nice place and the presentation was amazing so it was well worth it!
Pictures at the end of the post :)

AND NOW,
to the most amazing / horrible thing that happened to me!
Today i went for an audition for COMPANY
which is a musical with music from Stephen Sondheim
u know the guy who did sweeney todd,haha
ANyhoo, ive been emailing the person asking is it ok i dun hav experience, im wearing the scarf bla bla bla
and she said its all guuuuuuuuud
yeah,right.

i came and all the other ppl auditioning were freaking professionals!
one girl had singing lessons since she was 10 and was picking songs to sing out of this big book of broadway songs!
and they all were doing degrees like english and drama,music and drama, and i was doing business,heh
And when i went in they said ok we'll test ur voice first and he started playing the piano and i basically had to sing following the keys he was playing
and he kept on saying " ok go higher,go higher"
i felt so shitty!!!
And then i had to sing the song i prepared and halfway thru i forgot the lyrics!!!
ANd had to refer to the paper,
then i had to do the four last lines again but with emotions
and then i had to read the script
And u know just my luck i wud have picked the script for the girl who's suppose to be this hippy spunky wierd character,
and i didnt hav time to read thru the script so i had to improvise and there was these two parts where i had to do gestures with my ass that i didnt do cuz i didnt read thru yet!
and i read too fast and was too nervous and didnt put enough emotion!
And they said to TRY and do an american accent as well since COMPANY is set in new york

the audition was CRAZYYYY!!!
i felt amazed that i actually went thru with it,
and tho i know i hav no chance competing with the professionals,
i really really REALLY want a part in this musical!
and i feel like if i had the second chance,
i wud have gone back and did the audition properly and be more prepared,
well as prepared as i can be without previous trainings i guess,heh

but it was so horrible but amazing at the same time
i dun regret going thru with it :)
so people make d'uas that i get the part ok!
i will forever be in debt!

p.s wanna thank rukiya for actually staying till four and daria for skipping her class just to come with me for moral support...u guys r the best
