My latest Wicked-obsession-related antic: You Know You're Obsessed With Wicked When... While blasting the soundtrack (cast recording, whatever  ) and singing at the top of your lungs on the highway you notice while stopped at a light that the people in the next car are pointing and laughing at you. Instead of cowering in embarrassment, turning off the music and sitting in sheepish silence, you smile, give a big wave, roll down your windows (even though it's below freezing) and belt all the louder. Oh, one more: You're listening to the cast recording in the college library staring at boring textbooks and suddenly the girl from the carrel ahead of yours is standing in your face making turning motions with her hand. You pause in the middle of " Dancing Through Life" and say 'sorry, what?' When asked if you could turn the music down, instead of saying 'of course, sorry' (because come on, it's WICKED) you say 'no I can't. But I guess maybe I could move.' |

When in drama class the teacher comes in and plays an improv game with you where you have to write your own scene you write about Wicked. Then when other people have to act your skit you laugh because they have no idea what they're doing and you do, so it's funny to see them butcher the characters that you love.

...When you ask random people what the most swankified place in town is.
...Scream at your best friend of eight years when she says "Yeah, it's sad because she became Wicked for no reason"

Here's another one...
When your little brother and sister know EVERY word as well you do...
My little sister sings "For Good" with me all the time. She is always Glinda and I am Elphie, because she doesn't want to be green. She is a funny kid.

-When you and your friend are slightly breaking the rules for the drama showcase and, if you get the permission are going to do a mini musical with the scene right before For Good and then proceed to sing the song.
-When in English you have to write an essay and somehow Idina Menzel and Wicked just seem to pop up
-When for fun you convert your friends to Idinaism and -Wickedism so they have to go out and buy the CDs
-When at the end of your friends outside writing you get her to say Idina Menzel has a really great voice
-When for English (lol noticing a trend here) you have to find something that references to Shakespeare and you choose the Today show because the guy said Something Wicked This Way Comes. Then you proceed to go on and play Popular even though it has nothing to do with Shakespeare

When working on your midterm on "Plato's Republic" you purposely use the term "hoi polloi" not because you want to impress the professor, but because it's the only way to keep you sane while you write...

Does all this have any affect on your mark at all?  -You try to convert friends to Wicked by lending out your CD even though people DON'T ask to borrow it, but then you become worried that they won't know what's going on without a plot synopsis, so you write one out for three hours, complete with stage cues and all the dialogue you can remember. |

Surprisingly my English teacher seems to enjoy the fact that since Wicked I've become more creative so as of yet it has yet to get me a bad grade! Surprising, but yes.

When you make a bet with a fellow Wicked lover in playwriting that you can get something Wicked related into every scene you write. So you have a character called Nessa in three out of the four scenes, you have WoO references to Munchkinland, the odd character of Nessa goes off into a rant about how the Wicked Witch of the West was just as misunderstood as she is....
And then in the most recent scene, you break away from the life and times of Nessa (at which time, your playwriting teacher feels your head for a fever) and have two new characters named Richard and Mara. At the end of the reading your friend smirks at you, thinking he's won the bet. Instead you point to the title, " Destiny is Deafening" and walk away.

...you find a blue skull cap in your brother's room, steal it, cut it to make it smaller like El's beanie, and then only wear it when he's not around so he won't kill you for destroying his hat.
