It is such a gloomy day today, although it is spring -_- So I thought I’ll talk to you guys about something that is unrelated to weather. x3

So a couple of weeks ago, my school put on a production of the musical, Working. Based on the same-titled book by Studs Terkel, Stephen Schwartz and Nina Faso adapted it into a musical. Working is about the American workday from points of view of many real individuals with both common and uncommon jobs: from the CEO of a big company to the neighborhood newsboy. Each of the people portrayed in the musical talk about their jobs, how they feel about them, the people they interact with, as well as their hopes and dreams.

I wasn’t in the show a whole bunch; I was mostly in ensembles, because my singing abilities are way better than my acting abilities ^_^’ But I did have a total of two lines, which my friend, who was also in the show (as the receptionist), was very excited for me :D

The following videos were taken by my sister. This is the opening song and features the whole cast.

This next song features the waitress and was one of the most popular numbers in the show. I’m the one who opens the scene here (one of my two lines), though you cannot really hear me, I need to work on my projection. Hehe xp

Now this song is my favorite in the whole show. It is so sad, but the chords are beautiful and so is the message. I would try to change my outfit quickly every night just so I can hear this song.

This one is the closing song. I look at buildings differently now because of this song.

Well, I hope you enjoyed my nostalgia. All the agonizing rehearsals were worth the experiences I gained from this show; It was a lot of fun :D Thank you for reading! ~blow_fish
