Life isn't really going the way I wish it would, but oh well. I ended up sleeping in for 1st and 2nd period, I don't know how I got my mom to say yes to that, but she did, and I don't question GOOD things...well sometimes I do, but oh well. Then, I went at 10. School was torture as always. I really can't stand school, and it sucks that even when I don't go to my first two classes, the day still goes by impossibly slow. The only GOOD parts of my school day: text messaging Giulia and computer was pretty fun. After school, I came home and basically had a meltdown and had to take my medicine for the first time in like 3 months which upsets me a lot. Then, I took a nap. Then, went to Broadway Bound(which I was late for). I gave Hannah her present(Little Women sheet music book!). BB was pretty fun today. Dedra talked about her new diet, then we reviewed 'basic musical theatre' dance moves. Then, I sped to MK's musical theatre class at CBS(late for that too, but she knew I would be so no biggie). We worked on a dance combination to 'Sing!Sing!Sing!'. It was fun. She told the class to come see 'Beauty and the Beast' b/c I'm in it, and we talked about her mom's reaction to Cabaret and I told her I was seeing it tomorrow with my mom. Then, I sped to Palmetto Girls Ensemble(guess what? late for that also). Lauren Rush was there(GAG). She knows I can't stand her. I really wish I could learn to like school, but I don't think that's ever going to happen. So...yeah. I have a 100 in religion, 95 in English, 96 in Computer, 96 in physics(don't know how), 84 in French, and 89 in Geometry. Thank God I get to see Giulia tomorrow. And Cat! YAY. After I see Cabaret, I'm going out with my mom and Giulia haha. Oh yeah our really good review from The State Newspaper: "This ‘Beauty’ is no beast By JAMES HARLEY Special to The State Town Theatre succeeds on many fronts with its vibrant and ambitious production of Disney’s “Beauty and the Beast.” An iconic love story, the musical tale follows the fate of restless young Belle as she seeks to escape the limitations of small town life. When she finds herself a prisoner in the castle of a cursed man-turned-beast, she both learns and teaches that happiness comes not from where or what you are, but from what is inside your heart. Director and choreographer Shannon Willis Scruggs outdoes herself with this production, adeptly coordinating a huge cast and achieving a level of spectacle not often seen in our community theatre. Sumptuous costuming, handsome scenery and thoughtful movement are integrated to great effect, especially in the show’s big numbers, perhaps most notably in the Prologue and in Act One’s climactic “Be Our Guest.” Among the cast, Kerri Roberts stands out vocally as Belle, and Christopher Cockrell offers a robust performance as the Beast. Lewis Causey and Laura Roberts Adair contribute solidly as Cogsworth and Mrs. Potts, respectively, while Kevin Bush simply steals every scene as the flamboyant Lumiere. Of course, the show is not without flaws. There is some gratuitous spectacle, a few weak vocal efforts, a couple of flat roles, and an overpowering microphone system. However, there are certainly many well-crafted theatrical moments when “Beauty and the Beast” seems greater than the sum of its parts, and these moments leave the strongest impressions on the viewer. “Beauty and the Beast” runs through October 8, call the box office at (803) 799-2510 for reservations"
