Friday 18th January
Dear diary,
Today was INSANE. You know that warm feeling you get after something awesome has happened and you're sad that it's over but happy cause it was amazing - I feel like that - I think it's called the afterglow. Anyways, being Lydia is the best experience I have ever been given, I'm so grateful that I get to be such an amazingly strong, determined character every night. And I'm grateful because this is my job, how crazy is that! I love love LOVE being on stage, it's the one thing that truly makes me happy :)
On another note, blonde boy snapped me again today, he said all this stuff about how amazing I sing and that I'm perfect for Lydia?! WHAT!! Okay I must admit that this made me very warm and squiggly inside (that disneyworld feeling) BUT, I am sticking to my New Years vow to focus on me and not boys. Yes he does have the most beautiful blue eyes, a smile that makes me smile, blonde hair that I just love... oh wait, I never opened his snap from earlier

I put down my diary and pick up my phone to open the snap, and I instantly smile and blush when I see what he has sent me:
-
I DO NOT LIKE HIM (that was kinda cute though)
I DON'T
Enough about blonde boy, I can't believe I got given flowers tonight on stage! Alex T did a small speech at the end of the performance and thanked everyone who's apart of the show, AND THEN thanked ME individually for stepping up to be Lydia a week and a half ago. Prez then gave me flowers and I honestly thought I was going to die of embarrassment and happiness, I've never been thanked like that before.
People don't usually care about me, I'm the orphan girl who's always forgotten about and never noticed - if I'm being completely honest I haven't felt myself until tonight. I've always had confidence issues: playing Lydia gives me an alter ego to be every night. When I am her, I feel like I am the most confident person in the world and I can do anything, a way I struggle to feel when I am myself. This is why this year i don't want boys or distractions, I need time to work on me. Alone.
Rant over, I'm tired lol. Tomorrow is another show day, and I haven't been set any schoolwork because it's opening week which means I can explore the city for the morning! I've missed New York, I can't wait to get back out there and clear my mind.
Yours truly,
Jorgia Taylor xo
