+The Mess

I was performing Disney's 'Go the Distance'(I had to wear costume and all that) And I sang the first verse wrong (the lyric didn't even make any sense when I tried to fix it, I hope no one really noticed)

I had to be a butcher in Les Miserable's 'One day more' and you see... earlier that day I had coursework to do (I had to film this guy, long story, irrelevant to this one)there was traffic when I was going home and I needed to make a bloody apron, but when I put paint on it it looked too thick, so I put a bit of water (NB: I was running late, so I rushed)and the paint spread through the whole apron (which was white at first) and it became pink! I don't even have to TRY to be gay, do I? (It comes naturally)

+The Blood

These two boys were running (like most kids do) out into backstage, one tripped and banged his head against the door, he was bleeding A LOT, I was very close to the door, so I went to him, I half-shouted/ half-whispered (honestly I don't really know what it's called) "He's bleeding! He's Bleeding!"

I grabbed the kid's arm and rushed him to one of the women's changing rooms (I knew there was sink there, the first I thought of)) both of us, me and him, washed his forehead (of course by now there were people gathering around, wondering what happened)putting pressure on the wound with a tissue, then a towel (by now there were others helping). Teachers, adults came, gave him some water, I told him to lie down. Kids came and were noisy as expected, they moved him to an air-conditioned room, more water, someone fanning his face, towel on his forehead, mother called, more teachers, more kids.

He didn't cry once.

I remember seeing his scar it looked pretty big (considering his child-sized forehead). I wonder if I did the right thing, grabbing his arm like that, maybe I should have carried him?

The kid was brought out, probably to an ambulance. You know it's stupid, there was a hospital (JPMC) right next to us (JPCC) but we couldn't bring him there because it's closed! (don't they have a freaking ER?!)

I think he's okay, these things happen, I just hate it when it does.

The Rose

A friend Annisa told me she had something special for me after the show. She was giving out roses to 9 people, but forgot to bring the last one...mine.

Oh well, she says sorry and that she'd bring it the next time we meet, but honestly I'm not that bothered, it's the thought that counts, now, if it was money...
