Phantom Of the Opera

It was a magnificent show. Totally captivating. I have no regrets watching this. perhaps the only regret is a lack of a partner. It'll be an unforgettable experience watching it with someone special. The whole show was one splendid performance. From the actors to the props crew to the pit orchestra everything was awesome. Besides all the acting and the singing, the props crew amazed me the most. there were excellent effects and all the prop movement; the speed and the noiseless movement was amazing. Truly a show worth all the penny I spent. I am really inspired. Some day I would like to be the one overseeing all the audio aspect in the esplanade. Ambitious? maybe, I pray I get a chance to.

The part that I think captivated me the most was when after Christine was captured by the Phantom and Raul went to save her. They sang their own individual song as Christine made her choice. It reminded of her when she had to make the tough decision too. The confused look, lack of assurance in her eye. The look that said, if I could, I rather not choose. Man, my heart flipped when I saw that scene. Tears rolled down my face. To see Christine lie to the Phantom that she loved him, hoping that he would release Raul from pain and a certain death by the suffocation of ropes. That was really heart wrenching. And the song he sang after, which now I cant remember, spoke deeply to me. I love this show. Its a love-hate relationship.

I thought maybe doing something is actually good. It can help keep my mind off her. apparently not. Especially when the show is titled Phantom of the Opera. In each scene I can relate the feelings, emotions, the meaning behind the act. Every song speaks the same way as I did, we had a common language. Somehow this show displayed my emotions. As I watched it I see my life being played out. Well it isn't exactly how my life was lived, but the feelings and emotions were. The background of it all about 2 men, 1 lady: that was the core similarity. I loved the songs, I could remember the details of it all as the show went on. I have watched the movie version and I say both are equally good.

I hope my mind wont be filled with her all the time. I wanna move on too. Its hard but I gotta try. I know this time I really loved her, so it'll take some time. My life have to go on, the show must go on. The play isn't finished yet and I want to see the ending. This is the end of day one, I'm coping fine.

I don't want the bruise to stop hurting

I think you should just give up on her. Time will heal. Do not give up trusting in God's provision.
