Collegial

My last day of my first improv class was yesterday. I wish it could last a lot longer, but I guess it can't.

I got to meet a lot of cool people who all made me laugh. I made some new friends and started getting a practice group together. My confidence had grown a lot. What I love the most is the chance to perform again.

I haven't been able to do a lot of theater since high school. Grade school and high school, I did shows at the community theater and in school shows. I loved the comradarie of being in a show. Spending your off-stage time making friends, pulling pranks, creating weird inside jokes based on the play you are performing. Then aafter your last show, it's over. You go back to your regular lives, your schools, your day job. The memories of all the silly giggling moments, the great saves you made on stage if someone forgot their lines, the people you wish were in your lives more.

Those are the feelings that are going to creep back to me after my graduation show. Hopefully this isn't the last time I get to be a part of a show.
