Eight-Lined Dialogue

This was the first time I was exposed to acting, I believe (besides the pantomimes). It was actually a lot more fun than I had originally thought. You get to become someone else and even if I'm not very good at it, I cannot deny how awesome it was to see everyone say the same lines but make it seem different. It's almost like a magical power. My partner was Dhara and we chose to go with our characters being a twelve-year-old kid and a parent after a fight because I was dying to say it in a crying voice. My mind immediately connected the two because "Don't you like me?" seemed like something a kid would think after their parent yelled at them. I used to do that all the time. My mom would yell at me and I thought she didn't love me anymore so I would need to ask her to make sure. Anyways, a lot of people did a couple but they all had different context and it was centered around a different issue in each one. For example, Cindy and Anna were a married couple and it seemed like Cindy's character was having an affair or something and no longer loved Anna so she had to ask if she still liked her. Iris and Jackie made theirs really funny by making Jackie's character a slobbish jerk so that Iris's character had to ask if she liked her since Jackie hadn't been paying very much attention. I think this is going to motivate me to try out for the musical because it's just so dang interesting. I cannot seem to get over this. It's almost like an epiphany.
