Sometimes I'll like repeat after like a year.
I'll be like, oh, I kind of remember this one, but I don't know how it ends.
But let me guess.
And no, it's much harder because I, you know, like growing up, I think, you know, when I was in high school, I always wanted to be like the popular girl.
I felt like unseen.
I felt quiet.
I felt like, oh, God, these people don't even know my potential and they never will know it because I wasn't like I auditioned for plays.
I would never get like.
I would audition for, like, the Diary of Anne Frank, and I would think I was going to get Anne Frank, and I would get, like, Jewish Townsperson B. Like, I was always, like, way under what any... Like, I would think.
So I was, like, not being shown any reason why I would ever be successful, and I had this secret dream of, like, I want to be on TV.
So there's a part of me that is, like, look at what I did, but, like...
There's this other thing of like, I just project them being like, this isn't that good, like almost like seeing the real me.
So there's this like kind of and also I don't feel like I'm a star like I don't as much as like, yes, I know that I've earned the status and like other people might see me that way.
I really don't think it's like that.
I can think of a million reasons, excuses for why it happened.
And I'm like, I feel imposter syndrome.
So there is a part of me that feels like stupid, like making all these people come to this big theater and like to give a standing ovation.
And they're like, you know, girls, I take Pilates classes with or like my hairdresser, like, you know, girls, I went to high school with.
It's like kind of embarrassing.
But overall, like, I loved it because they're just so supportive and they're so โ they are excited that someone made it.
