Sorry for the later reply! My Mom sent me to a camp & gah, my holiday is over already.
Thank you! Yeah... This forum's been quiet.

I groaned as the make-up lady applied more green paint on my skin. Gross, it itched! & some hair stylist was stuffing my hair into a raven black wig. I'm just happy the play is going along nicely.
I walked onto the stage, where I faced Aisha - who was dressed in white.
"Elphaba is now without a roommate and ends up with Galinda, to the disgust of both."I looked at Glinda - Aisha - with much horror, & she mimicked my expression, taking a step back with a gasp.
I turned around to see Nessarose - Roxy - being wheeled away by Madame Morrible - Lazuli.
"No! Don't take Nessa away! Please!" I pleaded. A few sparks fly as smoke erupts from the vents under my feet. Lazuli turns around with a gasp & looked thoughtful before wheeling Roxy away.
The curtains close & the scene changes to the empty hallway. I stand before my room door. The curtains open & I was just about to turn the handle when Lazuli appears.
"I noticed how powerful your magic was. I'll teach you - only you, not even Galinda - sorcery." She whispers loudly.
I looked shocked. "Y-You could do that?" I gasp.
"Yes! Your powers are strong! It might even allow you to work with the Wonderful Wizard of Oz!" she cried.
"Oh! That's my dream!" I say excitedly as she leaves.

"All of this does little to endear Elphaba to Galinda and the feeling is mutual."Aisha & I sit in a classroom & glare at each other, with some random chosen students all around us to play the part of the Shiz University students.
(I don't know if this happened. I'm just making these up.)Galinda (spoken):
Dearest, darlingest Momsie and Popsical...
Elphaba (spoken):
My dear father...
Both:
There's been some confusion over rooming here at Shiz.
Elphaba:
But of course, I'll care for Nessa.
Galinda:
But of course, I'll rise above it.
Both:
For I know that's how you'd want me to respond, yes.
There's been some confusion for you see my roomate is...
Galinda:
Unusually and exceedingly peculiar
And altogether quite impossible to describe...
Elphaba:
Brunette.
(<-- It's actually blonde, but Aisha's a brunette)Galinda:
What is this feeling, so sudden, and new?
Elphaba:
I felt the moment I laid eyes on you.
Galinda:
My pulse is rushing.
Elphaba:
My head is reeling
Galinda:
My face is flushing.
Both:
What is this feeling?
Fervid as a flame, does it have a name?
Yes. Loathing!
Unadulterated loathing!
Galinda:
For your face,
Elphaba:
Your voice,
Galinda:
Your clothing!
Both:
Let's just say - I loathe it all!
Every little trait however small,
Makes my very flesh begin to crawl
With simple utter loathing!
There's a strange exhilaration.
In such total detestation
It's so pure, so strong!
Though I do admit, it came on fast,
Still I do believe that it can last.
And I will be loathing, loathing you my whole life long.
Shiz Students:
Dear Galinda, you are just too good!
How do you stand it, I don't think I could.
She's a terror,
She's a Tartar,
We don't mean to show a bias but Galinda, you're a martyr!
Galinda:
Well, these things are sent to try us...
Shiz Students:
Poor Galinda, forced to reside
With someone so disgusticified,
We just want to tell you, we're all on your side!
We share your
Both (Shiz Students):
What is this feeling (Loathing)
So sudden and new? (Unadulterated loathing)
I felt the moment (For her face, her voice)
I laid eyes on you. (Her clothing)
My pulse is rushing, (Let's just say)
My head is reeling. (We loathe it all)
Oh, what is this feeling?! (Every little trait, however small)
Does it have a name? (Makes our very flesh)
Yes, (Begin to crawl)
Ahhh (Ahhh)
Loathing (Loathing)
There's a strange exhilaration, (Loathing)
In such total detestation, (Loathing)
It's so pure, so strong! (So strong)
Both:
Though I do admit, it came on fast,
Still I do believe that it can last!
Both (Shiz Students):
And I will be loathing (Loathing)
For forever, loathing, (Loathing)
Truly deeply, loathing you, (Loathing you)
My whole life long! (Loathing, unadulterated loathing!)
Aisha flipped her hair & did her best to look smug as the "Shiz Student" danced around us, blowing kisses at Aisha & hissing & flapping books at me.
"BOO!" I shouted while glaring at her.
"AAH!" she shrieked as she did her best to look surprised.

I took a seat. My next scene was to be played in 20 minutes & I was exhausted from the repitition of "What is This Feeling?" at least 50 times to get it into our heads. After that song, we had to do the History Class scene & we had to learn "Something Bad." The amount of songs in this play was driving me cuckoo.
"Guess I'm up next."
I looked up. Riven.
"Yeah." I whisper. I was almost out of voice.
"Here." he handed me some lemon tea to ease up my throat.
"Thanks."
