I miss being in a department where no matter what, we had each others back. No matter the issues between two people, when it came down to what really mattered, they knew the other one was there for them. A department where while watching the senior slideshow someone who I had by far the largest issues with, hugged me. This was all because every single one of us was doing what we absolutely loved and because without each other we were nothing and we all knew it.
I can’t help but look around me today and see a department full of people who want to be right. A group that can’t even take the time to space a piece on stage without arguing. Where only one person in a dance is told good job when really, like I said, they are nothing without their cast members, yet rest of the cast is overlooked.
Don’t get me wrong, I love some of these people to death. I just wish everyone could be a little bit less self absorbed. Because I’ve never in my life wanted to be done with a show week so bad.
I miss my LVA and SDA/Innovation families.
