The Music Within = I'm Exhausted

Remember that movie gig I told you about? Well, it went well...I guess. I don't have anything to compare it with, so I don't really know if it went well or not. At first I was still in that "I don't want to be here" mood. But after getting into hair/make-up and wardrobe, I was better. It was fun for a while being dressed as a hippie. Soon though, I became tired of sitting and doing nothing. We got to the place at 6:30 PM and didn't start filming until like 10:30. When we started filming, we stood outside in the freezing cold for like 2 hours. It was harsh. I think we all got a touch of hypothermia. Anywho, after freezing to death, we broke for lunch. That's right, lunch. Since we were paid extras, we got a 30 minute break for lunch and they gave us food....a quizzno's sub, a cookie, and chips. After lunch, we filmed more outside frozenness. This scene was filmed for about 2 more hours and then finally we moved on. We sat and waited for the director to get ready to film the inside portion of the movie. I fell asleep a couple of times, but that's fine. Then, once the director was ready to shoot, a few of us were chosen to go. I was one of the few. However, my "big debut" didn't come until more people came into view....this girl form Southridge and I were "featured" in a shot. The leads were behind us saying their lines while the camera was not focusing on us but was in front of us......so my head was in the shot. Then Ruth (the Southridge girl) and I were placed in a specific spot to be "featured again".....though I don't know if it was really to be featured or if they were worried about continuity errors. In any case, I like the last part of the evening...I guess it was early morning by then...so I liked the morning part of it. We didn't get done filming until 5 AM.

We got home at 6:00 AM...all popsicles. I didn't end up going to bed until 7:00 AM.

After an hour and a half of sleep, Nathan and I went to Chuck E Cheese before I went to a 6 hour practice. You may ask why we didn't just go after dance team. Well, I needed to get some excitement into me before I learned a lot and danced and had more excitement for learning and dancing (I don't think that really made sense...and that's fine). So we went to Chuck E Cheese and had a grand old time. Even though I like the old one better, this new place wasn't horrible. However, it didn't have my favorite game...the crocodile one. But that's ok. I still had fun.

I went to dance team practice from 12:30 to 6:00. We stopped at 6 because it started to snow and the snow turned into ice. What was interesting was that it really didn't ice. I mean, I didn't see any and the roads weren't slippery. But oh well. I think Heather was more tired and possibly irritated than really thinking it was really icy....but who knows...maybe it was icy in some places. In any case, I was able to go home earlier.

And by home I mean I went to visit Charlotte at Coffee Rush. That was fun.

So today I fell asleep in 2 classes. My lack of sleep really hurt me. However, in those 2 classes, we had subs and we weren't doing anything. It was nice. I needed that sleep. We also had Crucible practice today...well I should say that Amber, Nathan, and Charlotte had practice...I did not. It wasn't my day today. I don't have practice until Thursday. That's sad, but I think it was probably a good thing that I didn't need to practice today because I was so out of it.

Anywho, now I need tog et going on my English and Physics. I have a test in Physics tomorrow that I am going to fail. I wish we didn't have a test tomorrow. Oh well. Good night everyone.
