Ahh and I am back after finishing 8 shows of "Forever-Ever?". See how in my last blog I wrote bout my injured ankle? Well luckily it had no bad effect on my performances cause the first one was AWESOME!!

Ohh the first and last show was the most nerve racking, for 2 reasons, the first one you want a good show to start of the saeson with no mishaps and the last show beacause you want to leave a good impression and because it was in front of my home crowd haha.

Before the first show, everyone was pretty nervous, even if some of us didn't show it. The first show was to be held in front of a NESB school (Non English Speaking Background). The first show went without a hitch and the feeling afterwards was amazing. Ahah I had Vietnamese kids who had just migrated to Australia asking for my number LOL pretty weird.

And the second show was held in front of Fairvale High School, since this was a normal school, we also wanted to make a good impression in this one as well. It went as good as it could have been. Ahaha William was the star of the show, with girls going crazy for William afterwards hahah. And I also got asked for my first autograph at that show as well lol which was pretty cool.

The rest of the shows we had at Fairfield were awesome. Also with many memorable moments, such as Sandra's birthday present of a surprise strip tease LOL *I wasn't involved in this in anyway LOL* and having an awesome sleep on the Acromat LOL.

It's also pretty cool when people come up to you after the show, saying how much they enjoyed it, when the laughed, when they cried etc. It's also pretty cute when you have lil kids asking for your autograph, you can't help but say in your mind "awwww" hahaha.

The shows at Casula was awesome as well, it was also better then Fairfield cause Casula was an actual theatre with professional lights with big theatre which could hold 300 and something compared to Fairfield with only a 100. We pratically had full houses for both the school and night shows which were pretty good. And the dressing rooms were friggin huge as well. But was freaky at this show, was that in both the school and public shows, there were 2 important looking ladies in the crowd with a book and pen taking notes which was kinda weird knowing they are judging you.

And again it was pretty awesome after the last show at Casula meeting lots of different people and appaulding on our performance. I was also lucky enough to meet the England Founder of B-Boying, pretty cool guy, but can't remember his name LOL I also got to meet the Chooka Chooka dancers, they a group of people who travel around the world doing traditional Aboriginal dances. It was also pretty nervousing (yes I know it's a real word LOL) cause Candy had said there would be casting agents and other people from the industry would be at the after party cept she wouldn't tell us who they were and what they looked like, so I was pretty scared hoping not to make a fool outta myself LOL.

And after Casula we had Revesby, the last show!! I was pretty calm during the day at rehearsals, but as it starting getting closer to show time I was getting pretty nervous again. As we walked out onto stage I could begin to see everyone of my friends in the darkness, including my mum LOL The show oculd have went smoother, but the audience didn't seem to have any any mistakes or problems lol. They laughed they cried and everything in between haha. By the end people seemed to have loved the show.

After the show, I was meeted and greeted by everyone, and I got to see some old friends and everyone, I even got to see me teachers, and Ms Conte was nice enough to buy me, Nikki, Will, Phil and Fesuai a choclate oscar hahah .I couldn't help but then smile =D

Afterwards we headed off to dinner, and it was great, I had an awesome time, just sitting and chatting to everyone. It was just one of those moments that you would be remembering even into your old age hahaha.

Now I'm just gonna take this time to say thank you. First I'd like to say thanks to everyone who turned up to see the show, and it's success relied on our audiences. Next I wanna say thanks to my family and teacher and friends who supported me all the way. Then the Power Up ensemble, you guys are amazing, like a family to me, I'm gonna miss you guys heaps man and I'll see you guys in the futute when we're all famous LOL And to the crew of the show, it would have not been the same if we didn't have you guys staying back late nights, waking up early mornings and putting in the time for us, and of course I must say thank youi to Candy Bowers, our great director, who made this all possible, if not for her, who knows what I'd be doing instead right now.

I guess that'll be all for now Bye!
