Ode to the theatre

Ok here goes! Today i have to write about stage makeup.
first things first: if you are going to be in a play, you have to know how a whore does her makeup. no joke, we seriously look like whores when we first put it on. the saying goes some thing like this " be more whore-like, the more whore -like the better" seriously, there was like a ton of makeup used today- and today was the first day of runthroughs with makeup. it was so fun. there were so many girls that were like "i don't know what to do. so all of us who know what to do just go and say "look like a whore" and then today, there was this girl who said " but i don't know how a whore does her makeup!!" we all laughed at that.
Next item of business: make sure your face is really clean, i mean, wash it right before you put your makeup on. otherwise, it will be really gross putting it on. trust me, i have seen the effects.
Thirdly: DO NOT PUT MAKEUP ON IN COSTUME! put it on before you get into costume otherwise, it will get all over your costume and then the costume mistress won't be happy. (trust me again on this one)
*side note*: if you are prone to break out, don't be in a play. the stage makeup will make you brake out like no other. i am not joking on this one. we had a girl who was like, i hope it doesn't make this thing worse*pointing to a zit on her nose* and then we were just like- sorry babe, there is no hope for you!! we are so mean in our drama program.
next thing on the list: wash off the makeup ASAP!!! i know, i know, sometimes the dressing room is crowded, i mean really crowded so as soon as you get home, make a beeline for the bathroom and get all of the stuff off, because trust me, that stuff sucks to try and get off too much later.
OH and by the way, that stuff really itches so good luck at not scatching it (that is one of the reasons you get it off asap.) and then, after you get it off, put moisturizer on your face because it will be really dry and it WILL burn. ( i wanted to like tear my face off it burned so bad today, until i got out my handy dandy moisturizer.
Anyways, that is all the advice for those wanting a career in drama or acting or anything like that that may involve stage makeup

well, i see my importance, and my self worth going down the drain

so it turns out that it happened again. ALL of my friends, and I mean ALL of them (x-cept pablo...i think) went and hung out this weekend while i sat at home bored out of my mind. i was so bored that i talked to myself!!!! i know, it was pathetic. and now, they are all talking bout what a great time they had and how they should do it again... it just makes me realize that i really don't fit in with any of my friends. they are all fake friends, and i mean this in the kindest terms, but they just seem to be shells of friends, maybe more like associates who are friendly and then when it comes time to go have fun....who is forgotten??? OH OH OH Pick me!!! i know!!! i know the answer!!! PICK ME!!! the one the only AMANDA "GIMPY" EMPEY!!!! i know i seem bitter, but wouldn't you be if you found out that everyone was at the same thing having the same great time, WITHOUT YOU? ok, i guess i am done.....for now

What am i on....

ok, so there is some stuff that i want to get strait, i love just about everyone, except for a slight few that will remain nameless, I love the way the myspace blogs work... most of the time, there just may be a slight delay b4 i get back into my old depressing blogging style *sigh*....maybe, some one, somewhere will help me at findong the true amanda....*crosses fingers and whishes for that one person to like her...* ah.... yet again, i am thinking that there is a non depressed side of me....somewhere, some how, i will find that other part of me, * depressed side gives a hearty laugh*:)  ya that's what i thought ...there is just this overly depressed , sometimes happy sometimes hyper, sometimes flirtatious...'-)  , sometimes awesome^  person who embodies this form we consider to be Gimpy...or Amanda anyways--this is how i normally feel::-S  everything just goes over the top of my head and now with my heart empty of most emotions.....as always...especially love....ha ha ha, i doubt i will ever feel loved again the way i did b4, i am just angry that all of my "girls" are being taken away from me by their "boyfriends" i just wish i had one that i could at least brag about.......... so if you read this and you know you have feelers for me, let me know... you never know.... i may like you back. and to all the guys out there: don't fear rejection from a girl, fear more acceptance..... oh wait, i wasn't supposed to say that.. :~/  now i've gone and chased all of them away....*chases after the imaginary boys that all are madly in love with her:)  * of course, they are all imaginary:'
