Wicked
It's late and I'm tired, but I must write about my wonderful night. My awesome brother surprised me today with tickets to go see Wicked, the musical for those of you unfamiliar with it. I LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait to see it again, get the soundtrack so I can start memorizing the songs, and read the book. The story is so unique. I love how they explain the back story to Glinda and the Wicked Witch from The Wizard of Oz. It was perfect! I couldn't help but feel sad for Elphaba, the green witch. I don't want to call her the bad or wicked witch because she's really not bad at all. Glinda is a great character as well because she's ditzy and goofy, but Elphie is by far the main character and well deserving. She's simply just a misunderstood witch. I can't thank Michael enough for taking me to see Wicked for my birthday. It's the perfect birthday present Mikey. I love you!! Now I can't wait to see Sweet Charity next.

I am so very happy you enjoyed the show. Now you know why I have been dying to have you see it! The story itself shows the audience of a tale of friendship. It touches me in so many different ways. There have been many times where I feel like Elphaba. But I can also feel like Glinda at times. But overall, Elphaba has my heart! I sometimes feel like the outsider. That everyday people judge me because of my lifestyle. People stare at me, people talk about me, people call me names. People just don't understand that it is hard enough to live a life in this lifestyle, and that we don't need to hear all the other bullcrap! So maybe one day I'll be accepted and loved for who I am, without me being "Galinda-fied."
Mikey, I love you so much! I know that's one of the reasons why you love this story so much. I want you to know that I feel like Elphaba too at times. I think everybody does. But I see why the story may speak to you more than others. I too wish that someday people will wake up and accept everyone for who they are and just let people live the life they want. It's unfortunate there are so many idiots out there that make your life and millions of others so difficult. I will always love and support you little bro. And please don't get "Galinda-fied" cuz I love you just the way you are.
But if I get "Galinda-fied" I'll have lots of shoes! A pink flower in my hair! And most of all, get to fly around in a bubble! Wait, nevermind, I think I'll stick to being myself. I dont know what I'll do with so many shoes! LOL
you know what i think about you going to see Wicked without me ... paoof... just kidding..thought i would join the masses of people who definately got on Michae's case about not taking them. i am so thrilled that you got to see it for your birthday...welcome to the Wicked obbession fan club!
