The Wiz

I joined stage crew at my school a few months ago. We are doing a musical called 'The Wiz'; we do musicals in the Spring and dramas in the Fall.

Now we're preparing for our show, which is this weekend, in full cast and crew rehearsals. We call this Tech Week. An just like the name suggests, we use the week before the show to rehearse the show with the cast and crew to work out all of the kinks. Naturally we want the show to be good, no, great. So, we use this week for the cast and crew to work together to make the show as good as we can.

I've been away from rehearsal for about 3 hours now, and not long after leaving I started going through withdrawals. It's interesting that every time I'm not at rehearsal, I want to be at rehearsal. Part of why I find this interesting is that I am not thinking of going into stage crew as a living at all. Now, I'm not so sure but I'll stick to my original plan of a future in criminal justice. I'll see where that takes me and go from there.

P.S. Just in case you care, I had another mental breakdown today. Including the one I had this past Friday, I've had a total of 2 mental breakdowns. With a close 3rd. The almost 3rd one was a close call. I'm just shocked that I've had this many mental breakdowns in such a short amount of time.
