In seventh grade, I learned to swallow my pride. I played the White Rabbit in Alice in Wonderland Jr. I thought that it was really cool that I was playing a lead, and I was only a seventh grader (the eighth graders typically got the leads). In reality, I was really annoying, and I never actually realized that the role was 100% typecasted to me. At the time however, all I wanted to do, was tell people how good I was doing, and how great I would be in the show (I was so self-absorbed). Although, by the day of the last performance, I had learned that it doesn't matter how I do individually, but how the cast works together, because there would be no show if even one person didn't show up. That play taught me how to swallow my pride, even when all I want to do it brag.
