More than ever, I can understand Yuuri Katsuki.

Sunday night was my colleges' theatre company clausure of its first series of performances. The play: Romeo and Juliet. It was my personal equivalent to the GPF. I know, they have almost nothing in common. And I say "almost" because, after all, both acting and figure skating require training and discipline. It was my first time with somewhat a major role: The nurse. Until now, I only played minor roles at the theatre workshop, and I was really terrible when I started acting. I thought about quitting many times. I even went so far to not going into the workshop for a year. Last year, in august, I was lost. Totally lost. I almost did something regretable, but I needed to reach that deep spot so I could start to go up again. I started by auditioning for the theatre company, which was at its beggining: It started with the ones who auditioned and got casted for Romeo and Juliet. We are the first generation of the company. ...Yes. I was casted, even when I thought I still acted awfully. And believe me, I enjoyed the process with all my might. It was fun. It was hard also, I can't deny it... the nurse is my total opposite. A funny, vulgar person. I am a very quiet and shy girl, so it was a challenge. I remember how embarrassed I was with some of the movements I had to do while in character. But at the end... it payed off. It really did. For starters, I made new friends! Maybe I didn't find a Viktor who helped me trough the process, but, I found them. Another weirdos like me. People who still use the word "dreams" instead of "objectives". They are my own Yurio, Otabek, JJ, Chris, Guang Hong, Leo. (I also have a Phichit of my own, but she is another story ❤). Talented people, strong people. Emotional people. Dreamers at heart and fighters in their everyday lives. And then... I also grew as a human been. I'm better than I was in august, and... It was my first time receiving so many ovations at the end of a play. During the season (it consisted of 5 shows) I left there my soul. I became the best Nurse I could be, and more. Now, people who went to watch the play congratulate me. They say things like I was the best, and that I enjoyed my acting. All the play, but I'm the one they remember the most. (But I have to say: all the actors at the company are great!) And it moves me to the tears. Because I started with nothing. I got no natural talent, only my stubbornness (you can ask my director: he will tell you the same). I was too afraid to continue. But... I loved the theatre, and I didn't want to let go of that love. As I said: I'm quite stubborn... So I went and challenged myself. And when it was time for our last bow, I was crying like Yuuri finishing its FP routine at the GPF. Because it was my last time on the stage. My last show was the best show of my life. I'm sad, yes. I didn't want it to end. But... I went there, smiling and enjoying myself to the fullest. I have no regrets. You know? Yuri!!! On Ice saved me. Watching Yuuri, a character that is just like me (shy, anxious, low self-esteem... stubborn), growing, inspired me to do the same. I think... I did it well. And I can say one more thing: We call everything on the stage "love". And yes, we were born to make history.
