My grandma died sometime this morning. My mom woke me up and told me so, and that she and Dad will be out the whole day, leaving me home alone. What's more is that since Mamang's remains will be taken to Sta. Cruz, Zambales, my 'rents will go there as well. And I get stuck here at home with no one else around. Yikes. Good thing Mom and Dad decided to call Tita Beng to come over from Palawan as soon as possible. I swear, if they leave me all alone in this house the whole time they'll be in Zambales, it's gonna be a mess. I'll be too busy with school and Narnia (that's what we sometimes call Lion for short) to take care of the entire house.

I think I have a sore throat. I wonder where I got it. And this time, it's my right eye that's irritated. Arg.

On a lighter note, we had our TDR (technical dress rehearsal) yesterday with an audience of orphans and a handful of our LIGHDES classmates (Mari, Lei, 'Riz, and Dave). Well, in the make-up room, it wasn't as chaotic as before, because most of the cast learned how to do their own make-up (Icko told them yesterday to learn how so they could do their own by the time opening night comes). Anyway, since everyone was pretty busy, I wandered around, noticing that Bing was nowhere in sight. So I figured she was with Johann to help him with his make-up. So I went upstairs to the ensemble cast's dressing rooms and bummed around, watching Bing do Johann's leopard make-up. Nyak, I ended up helping Jamie with his jackal make-up, and it felt like groping around in the dark, because Icko just decided on his make-up yesterday, making it up as he went along. Jamie did his best in trying to remember it, then I had to paint his face in green, black and white. Then Mio took over, revising the entire design Icko came up with.

Anyway, the run was pretty much OK. We had a video monitor in stage right so we could see the stage from the audience's point of view. The shot was pretty far, though, and I could hardly see a thing.

I gotta get some more rest. I slept until noon today, and I still don't feel well rested. I still feel as if I got run over by a steam roller. Arg.

I miss Ari. I miss him even more everytime I see Dein in Meralco. Crazy, isn't it? Instead of spending time with my boyfriend, I spend a lot more time with his brother these days.
