Two weeks ago, November 15 and 17 was my debut as a small town actress. One of the most proudest nights of my life. Being able to prove something to my parents and I guess most importantly myself. And what's not more fun than starting as a bitchy, and as the reporter put it "shallow, scatterbrain" evil stepsister. For four years now, I've been trying to find an answer to the question of "Can I really be an actress? And not a stereotypical Asian scholar student?" And I guess I found the answer, but like Odysseus I can't seem to accept the great relalization. All I do know is that I felt incrediably happy that people I didn't even know came up to me and said I was really good and to continue with acting. And people recognizing me the next day and me being like whoa. they know who I am, from one night. It was amazing, if only they knew what I've struggled through.

It's like, hey, you can't put me down anymore. Now comes another test: singing, dancing, and acting into one. Can I do it? Right now I say, Maybe. we'll see.

As to my thank yous, I guess some credit goes to my family for grudingly taking me home from late practices. Most importantly to the Midnights Players for being the closest and bestest friends and for believing in me. And too my girls for sitting in the third row for supporting me and loving it and seeing me from the other side. All in all, it feels great to be the one on stage for a change.
