People call me a 'drama queen' a lot. Funny how it's the opposite of insulting. I am dramatic. But I don't do it for attention. Well, I do, but not on purpose. Something inside me needs attention. The performer in me. Ever heard of 'stage high'? I get that in excessive amounts. When you step off of a stage after performing in some way and you can't stop moving (and talking, in my case) and you just long to be back on the stage with all your heart. I even get shaky legs and butterflies in my stomach. It makes me happy. It makes me crazy. I need to perform as much as I need to breathe. I even write dramatically. And it's okay.
So please, call me a drama queen. And don't hate me for it.
People don't understand my need for theatre.
But that's okay; I don't do it for them.
