Bombshell

Jambo Wonderlanders!!!

I want to start off todays blog with apologizing for being such a terrible blogger. First off I very rarely ever blog and when I do its normally sad and depressing, which no one ever wants to read. But the thing is, is that thats my life. Its sucky and I feel like there is nothing I can do to fix it.

I have tried changing who I am to try to fit in and I cant live a double life like that anymore. I must be true to myself.

Everyone needs to be true to yourself. Forget everyone else. And think about you. Me, myself and I. And today I did just that.

About a month ago, I was given the opportunity to volunteer to perform at an Arts Festival. I did and today (well yesterday because its past midnight) was that day.

I sang a duet with my friend Patrice. The songs had to be songs from the fifties but we were able to bend the rules a bit because we sang Let Me Be Your Star from Smash because we were dressed as Marilyn Monroe.

Yes, I got to be Marilyn Monroe and I freaking loved every single minute of it! Some of the kids from Suessical, the show that I auditioned for and blogged about a while ago, just happened to be there. I went up to them and said hello and tried to be friendly but they were not having it. Normally I would let this bother me but today I didn't. I just kept going and I sang the hell out of my song and rocked it!! It was the best I have ever sang.

I was able to shake it off and keep going.

On Smash tonight the show Bombshell started its previews on broadway and being able to sing the theme song for that show as Marilyn the night it premired made me smile.

I feel like Marilyn helped me get through today. Helped me shake off the jerky comments from the Suessical kids and keep going.
 So thank you Marilyn.

I tried to make tonights blogs happy and inspirational. It didn't work well but I'm still learning.
Well TTFN,
Alice
