Welcome Jade!

I got home really late last night. So late that I had to miss school. I didn't miss much because I was only going to be in school for an hour. I slept for a long time then I made some breakfast. I made waffles. When I went to put on some syrup, I saw there was no more Mrs. Buttersworth left. So then I took a dare. I put on some sugar free syrup. I took one bite and that bite tasted like the bite of death. I ran to the garbage and threw my waffles away. I was mad because I wasted two good waffles. I rode the Amtrak with my god father who's a conductor for Amtrak. We got there really early. So we finished some errands that we had to run. Then we went to the theatre for my rehearsal. It was a long and tiring rehearsal. It was for the new Young Nala. Her name is Jade. She is very nice and fits right in with us. It's too bad Shereen is leaving on Sunday. I had fun with her coming back to the show again. But there are new experiences to come. On our break before call, we all hung out in the lobby and ate dinner. My mom and I had anchovie pizza that was really good. The show went great today. Tommorow is Jade's put in. TTYL

On the Red Carper at the Tony's

I'm going to the Tony Awards!!!!!!!!!!!! I found out today that Lion King had ten tickets to the Tony Awards. I quickly called my mom and asked my mom if she wanted to go. My mom was not a split second late to say, " YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Then I ran to stage management and signed up for two tickets. I can't wait to go. I'm already planning out what I'm going to wear. I'm going to meet tons of famous people. I'm gonna have a blast. TTYL

Apples, Apples, Apples

Yesterday between shows, the cast and crew had a Top Chef Cookoff. The featured ingredient was apples. I didn't know so many dishes could be made with apples! There were appetizers, main dishes and desserts. I ate so much. I love it when we have food competitions. They are so much fun. Today was a great day. I told my mom Happy Mothers Day this morning. My whole household family came with me to New York. Before my call my mom, sisters, and I went to get makeovers. Then we went to the theatre. The show went great. It was too bad that I couldn't spend Mother's Day with my mom. TTYL

Getting Some Much Needed Rest

Today I stayed home from school because I got home really late and I was really tired. I could not be tired during the state test because my brain wouldn't work right. I'll just have to take the makeup test for math. So I slept in my bed for a long time. I got out of bed and watched a movie to pass the time. I watched Hoodwinked. That is a really good movie. My favorite character is Twitchy. He is a squirrel who speaks really fast and you can't understand a word he is saying. He is a funny character. Then it was time to go to work. At the theatre, I ordered some food then I drew on Niki's dry erase board. Then Josh and I were dunking in our dressing room. It felt good to play like a kid other than on Mondays. TTYL

Another Crazy Train Ride

Today was a crazy day. We started the NJ ASK yesterday with Language Arts and today we finished Language Arts. The train ride to work was crazy. When we were about to stop at Rahway, the train stopped in the middle of the track and didn't move for almost an hour. I was sleep and everytime I happened to look up, we were in the same spot. We past Rahway and then the conductor told us they were terminating the train at Newark Penn Station. That means they weren't stopping in New York City. So my mom and I got off the train and had to find our way to the next train. The defect is that Newark Penn is the biggest and most confusing station I've ever been in! Secaucus Junction that was confusing too. My mom and I finally got there. But I was ten minutes late. that was a real bummer. I was going to order out to eat at the theatre, but I forgot to. I don't know how but I did. So I going to have oodles of noodles when get home. TTYL

NJASK, I'm Ready for You

Today was wonderful. The weather was great. My mom, sister, and I walked up to the theatre from Penn Station. That walk felt good because of the fantastic breeze. The show went great. Backstage Josh and I were drumming and making beats in our dressing room. We drummed for fifteen minutes straight. I had so much fun. Tommorow starts NJASK testing. I think I am very prepared. I am also confident that I am going to pass the test. I'm going to get lots of sleep and a good breakfast. I have to make sure my brain is functioning its very best. TTYL

From Tribeca to Corbin to Car Fire

Today was fun but crazy. The fun part was that BKC performed at the Tribeca Film Festival. Another fun part was that my dad took me to Sam Ash after the first show. Then Khail, Shereen, Joshua and I went to meet Corbin Bleu. He was so nice. I took an individual picture with him. That was so cool. The crazy part started in the lobby. Joshua, Khail, Shreen, me and all of our parents were in the lobby watching people on the street dance when all of a sudden a car started smoking. The car was on fire. I was so scared because it was so close to the theater. That was really scary. Watch the news tomorrow for all the details of what happened. Inspite of all of that, I had a great show today. TTYL
