Lots of girls i know call themselves diva."I'm such a diva!'' they say, as they're rubbing your nose in some five-hundred dollar shoes their daddy bought them. But being a diva's a lot more than just being a rich girrrl. It's about singing, about flowers thrown onstage-about being brilliant. Iplan to be a diva someday. But first, i have to get through this audition.

And-wouldn't you know it- there's a wad of phlegm stuck in my throat.

The scene: I'm in an auditorium with, maybe, fifty other wannabes, trying out for the musical theater program at Miami High School of the Arts. Goths sit with goths, punk rockers with punk rockers. The girl next to me has an eyebrown ring and hair jello dyed acid red everyone here has something freaky about them.. except me. I'm the one and only person here in a dress (which maybe is freaky). And i bet im the only one with gunk in my throat.








Between living and dreaming there is a third thing. Guess it.
