A showstopper of a post from Brins


I didn't really want to put anything about this on the CICC, but when I think about it, it's a part of my life... and this is a Curricular Compendium... so I guess it deserves to be here.

Well, the school show is going to be beginning soon, as regards rehearsals. The auditions were fairly recent, and there was a surprisingly small turnout for male lead roles. However, the only part which more than one person (two people, to be precise) would like is the one I'm going for. It's either me or him, and we'll just have to see to find out who they think would best suit the role. Story of my life, huh?

But seriously, it doesn't matter much, since there's a part for all of us who turned up at the audition (all four of us), so whoever fails this will surely get another equally important role. I'd be happy to settle for a lesser one, anyway.

If, by whatever incredible circumstance, the person who's after the same role as me should be reading this, and have a rough idea of who I am, then I'd just like to say let's not have any hard feelings about this. I don't want any grudges to be held; it's just a show, after all. Whichever one of us gets it, there'll surely be plenty more opportunities in both our lives for the other to get the main lead... a tad over-dramatic a comment, I know, but just in case you're at all flustered about the whole thing.

I'm still waiting for the day when someone, somewhere, will find out who it is that's writing these things. With every new post that comes in, there's more evidence to support their case. I hope this post doesn't tip the scales...

But that's all I have to say! I might let you know who gets the part, but maybe I shouldn't in case I get discovered. Oh well!

Update: Audition's over. Who's got the parts?? The excitement/banality/indifference builds!

Update the 2nd: Whoa! Yikes! Whaa! Zoinks! Check it out, gang, now a whole assortment of other motley auditionees have decided (i.e. been forced) to participate in the auditions Part Two! Luckily I don't have to go, since I've auditioned already... but this incident certainly adds some spice to the situation, doesn't it? None of us are guaranteed parts any longer!
