So, I didn't get the part I wanted. I got a random named ensemble character named Mona Page, I believe The girl who got Niki told me before the cast list was put out that she really wanted me to be Niki, which makes me feel some weird, melancholy way that I can't explain. She was the same girl who got Lady Larkin in our class play, Once Upon A Mattress, instead of me. In that situation, we both wanted the part and this show will be double casted, so her and some other girl got Lady Larkin I don't know, I thought I did really well during my audition and callbacks this week. I tried even harder than I have before and it still amounted to nothing. My teacher herself told me I would be a great Niki and I agreed, so I tried out for her I feel like I was set up for failure. I'm relieved I still got in the show, but it feels horrible knowing that I tried my best and still failed. I know I could've played her well. Everyone who wanted me to be Niki said that she and I are basically the same person. Maybe I just suck

@Anajellyc Thank you for your kind words, it helps a bit ❤️ I think my main issue is that I get too timid to express extreme emotion while acting. I did my best during callbacks, and I think I did pretty well at that, but usually I get too scared. Then again, I've also been told I'm not very expressive, so that could also be a reason why. I was told by my friend that I performed the best out of all the other girls who got called back for Niki, but I feel like I have some work to do when it comes to confidence. Hopefully, I get some better luck in college theater. And I'll try not to put myself down about it :)
