Legally Blonde Muck Up - 7th April 2012 (The end)

I'm bored on the train home from London, so whilst they're still fresh in my mind I thought I'd let those that weren't there or have forgotten what happened. Please bare in mind I will probably have missed a lot. Comment if you know of anything else..

1st Act
- Omigod you guys; when the windows open, two of the men were there too, fully made up in wigs. (Robbie and the guy that play Carlos maybe?)
- When Warner came out the door he had some weird little girls sunglasses on that he didnt take off for the whole song.
- Serious; Jane and Danielle left the tables at the back on the phone so left the guys alone.
- instead of "She's eating Milkyways" it was: "She's eating Maccy D's" with a McDonald's bag.
- When Elle is meant to shout "Girls, girls" before 'What you want', Carley just let them carry on for a while.
- As always in "What you want" they went very wild with the 'ethnic movement'.
- Instead of "Brusier just loves watching Glee" it's was Hollyoaks.
- In 'Blood in the water' when Callaghan says "so I wanna see what?" they all shouted random things and he said "Can you summary the case of the state of Indiana v Stephanie Dean from you assigned reading?"
- before 'positive' - "Vivienne and I went to Nando's together and she's my girlfriend now"
"sorry I just hallucinated. What did you say?"
"he said we went to nandos together and now I'm his girlfriend"
- In 'Positive' the girls came up the lift facing the other way.
- Instead of "both her hair and shoes are flat" it was; "both her hair and boobs are flat".
- In 'positive' they attacked Warner and Vivienne as usual and when they went to the back Vivienne posed as if she'd slapped Warner.
- In Ireland, Georgie and Danielle were singing/dancing along. 
- At the party scene Warner gave Whitney a weird doll instead of champagne.
- Right, how do I explain the bit with Dewey... When he comes to the door the 2nd time and usually burps, as she knocked her shouted "Wait a minute, i'm just finishing off" and then when he came to the door his trousers were undone and he was wiping his hand on his top.
- The ring Warner proposed with was a toy one I think? She said "Wow Warner, it's... odd."
- In 'So Much Better' Carley took Ben's jacket off, threw it on the door and un-zipped his jumper- the "Remember when we spent spring break, in the hot tub every night.." bit.

2nd Act
- In the middle of 'Whipped into shape' when Enid had the remote, Gemma started some Michael Jackson moves.
- Chris was really padded up to look like a huuuuuge woman in the skipping bit.
- In 'Take it like a man' Jane had a bottle of "Love by JLO" so changed the words and kept spraying him with it.
- The UPS package was huge and they couldn't fit it through the door, so had to throw it round the side to Danielle.
- He waited for aaaaaaaages to say "have yourself a super day", was silent for about 20 seconds.
- When the girls came up in the lift for 'Bend and Snap' they were in the Mission Impossible pose.
- Danielle did her own moves for the Lakers girls bit, splits and kicks.
- Chris was dancing along at the end of 'Bend and Snap' before Paulette says "I'm gonna get me some Ky...".
- In the court scene the thong uniform was a wooly willy warmer - So Brooke said; "A delta nu would never sleep with a guy in a willy warmer".
- "Nikos did leave a One Direction CD in the poolhouse once"
- When Callaghan tells Warner to get him a coffee, Lincoln said the most complicated detailed type of coffee.
- At the beginning of the "LB Remix" when Vivienne stands up to do the "That's not what I see", Georgie tried to do it too and stood up with her and Vivienne pushed her back down. They then kept mouthing it was her fault.
- When Mum and Dad came on in the golf buggy, Emmett was in the passenger seat reading a law book and complaining that he couldn't join in.
- Chris' Irish dancing got a bit spontaneous with some strange dance moves in there.
- Chutney has a huge mole on her face, a raisin/sultana stuck on, I think? It then fell off when they went to the bathroom.
- The Stenographer (Georgie) sang the "Omigod we rock.." bit but carried on going, and went higher.
- Carley said "Ladies and Gentlemen, the cast of Legally Blonde" in 'Find my way'.

All the way through it seemed they were trying to get as many people on stage as possible as much as they could and some of the different notes/riff's they put in were amazing - great show!

"Dream as if you'll live forever. Live as if you'll die today."

Just got to warn you before you read any further.. this blog makes no sense, none what so ever. So stop reading, I would if I was you.

Anyway, hi.
A lot is going on in my life right now that is making me think and reflect upon everything around me. This year I had the new years resolution that I would take any opportunity I got offered, despite how scary or daunting this may seem. Unlike a lot of people, I love change and doing "random" things that are way out of my comfort zone- and thinking about this resolution I set it make me think- maybe I'm already following this..

To me, my life is normal.. like an average 19 year olds. But according to everyone else.. it apparently isn't. When I think about it; compared to other people my age (those that didn't go to uni) things are a little different for me, and no, I'm not talking about the fact I don't have a child and 80% of the girls in my year are popping their 9th out. From about 8 years old I had my life planned out, all different career idea's but different ways of getting there. It wasn't until I had to make a decision that I scrapped every idea i'd ever had. I can't believe how much my life has changed since high school.

The first thing I did that was a little strange was audition to be a performer at Disneyland Paris whilst I was still at Sixth Form, which was a bit strange because in my head I was going to university in Newcastle but I thought I'd do something a bit random, not thinking I'd get into Disney. Maybe in the back of my head I knew university wasn't for me, but yet I accepted my place and finally a month before going, I accepted I could not stand another day of education
So September came and my friends all went off to university across the country and I got a call, not from Disney but from PGL - Isle of Wight. Not quite as far oversea's that I would have hoped for but none the less I couldn't wait another day of wondering "what next" so took it. Did I mention I was to move the next day? So less than 24 hours and I packed and said my goodbyes. And I'm not gonna dwell on PGL as I've said many times how amazing it was.

Then when I sadly returned I did something a little unusual for me and turned "normal"- got office job in Leeds and living at home with the parents, again (joy!). I like this job, don't get me wrong. But is it really doing something crazy? Not at all. My mates are living it up at uni and I'm sat at a desk preying for the weekend. Not happening..

So this leads to my latest adventure. In 2 weeks I move to London, according to many - I already live there. Whenever I see anyone I haven't seen in a while they're asking, "why aren't you in London?" - yeah good joke. Isn't facebook a marvelleous thing for keeping everyone updated?
So I'm going to be an Au Pair.. people say this is weird because I hate kids. But there seems to be a common ground and maybe I don't hate kids as much as people think. I know London isn't far so I didn't even think about my decision, it all happened in about a week but as I got to telling everyone I was going it made me realise how many people I have here in Leeds that I love- I'll miss you all! (Pff, like they're gonna be reading this.)

I got reminded of this tonight, that I wrote 8 months ago -

"I can go to London more and that thought makes me happy. I will live there in a few years, after uni obviously."

Amazing how things change. Well Lucy, you're gonna be there a lot sooner. I'm very lucky to have some amazing friends in London and can't wait to spend more time with these people. This is the point i'm meant to be affectionate, but everyone knows I'm shit at that. So you all know who you are down there and I love you all - a lot. Even if I don't say it.
I've been rethinking my decision a lot because of certain individuals trying to peer pressure me into doing things elsewhere. But no, I made this decision and I'm sticking to it. I'm 19 and got the rest of my life to do other things! No further thoughts apart from, when I'm done with this.. what's next?

Any random idea's are welcome. I'm thinking America or Australia. Bring on 2013. Who's coming?

(Ps. Told you there was no point to this. If you've read up to here, you're an idiot)

Life’s too short to waste time on pretense. Laugh, be merry, and enjoy life the way you want to.”
