135. You plan to live in your Cecilian Hoodie for as long as possible
136. You have found enough booze and cigarettes to open an off licence
137. You’re thinking of having an after after show party just to get everyone back together
138. You had a gay moment with Fieldhouse due to 123FLOOR56
139. You managed to fit the whole of the society into your room
140. Because of the above, you now think it’s possible to have secret runs of the show in your room
141. You keep on finding moustaches and pirate hats in your room
142. You may have worn them….
143. More than once
144. You ruined the last three scenes of the final performance for Fieldhouse as you were sobbing
145. You know that Carmen is not a slag, but a cocktease as she never puts out
146. Fieldhouse’s Mum may know this as well…
147. You questioned your own sexuality
148. You are gutted there is a Gryson and not a Galy, especially after the build up
149. You debated the size of Cheser’s children
150. You cried during the speeches
151. You’ve sat reading your signed merchandise wishing that there was just one more showing
152. You became Glover’s seduction dance practice partner..
153. Carmen…..Carmen-cita still makes you chuckle
154. You and Fieldhouse were told to quieten down as you’re ruining the taping of the show
155. You may have watched one of the runs of the show since…
156. You honestly thought Rooney was going to kill himself
157. You have never punched the air as hard during any theatre performance
158. You miss Marion too much
159. You woke up on Sunday, excited that you didn’t have to go to Carmen rehearsals with a hangover, and then cried a little when realising you no longer have rehearsals to go to
160. Thanks to Kathryn, you now know how to cough in an obvious way
161. Colin Mitchell is never subtle
162. You spooned far too many people
162. People debated over whether you were a big spoon or a little spoon.
163. You can’t express how happy you are to have worked with such a brilliant case and production team, and how much of a fantastic time that you’ve had…and what an awesome year it has been thanks to many of them…..
164. You’ve turned into a soppy bastard.

165.) You are considering getting a new hoodie with "Tiny Girl Who Touches Herself" on the back.
166.) You choked to death every night from a blast of Lucy's hairspray.
167.) You can no longer look at your boyfriend without seeing an 80's lesbian.
168.) Charlie told you how he wanted to paint your hair green and recreate numbers from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory with you.
169.) You believe that with enough coloured paper, the Cecilians could go into business as party planners.
170.) You know now that unless you want to completely change your ethinicity, NEVER let Esther fake-tan you.
171.) David's legs looked better in a school skirt than yours ever did.
172.) You think Kenny should be a specialist dancer. Seriously.
173.) You think Ben Miller should be a specialist break-dancer. Seriously.
174.) In preparing to go out in the snow, you wrap your scarf around your head smuggley style, knowing that it'll protect you from anything.
175.) You may be getting older, but Sugar magazines from 2005 keep you feeling young.
176.) On your way to Uni, someone blew cigarette smoke in your face and you immediately began feeling yourself up.
177.) You saw the wonder that was the improv by the girls in the fight scene.
178.) You still think that The Barrowman signed his book "David Blahblah".

179) courtesy of ian alexander, you now know how to tell which way up a coin you tossed has landed without looking.
180) you tried to convince gregor that the next cecilian show should be the ring cycle. (well not the weekend show, obviously.)
181) your boss came to see the matinee and keeps asking about the "availability" of one of the specialist dancers!
182) you can't sleep at night after being creeped out by the thought of desmond with a moustache.
183) you can't sleep at night after because you didn't get to watch the actual killing each night cos you were playing, and upon seeing carmen with blood on her neck and jose with blood on his face in the bows, you thought there'd been some sort of hannibal lecter moment.
184) you've got your 0-60 time down to about six seconds after all the training you got each night on the interval cake-run
185) you want to ask coffers what the difference between "forbidden" and "prohibited" is
186) you've come to realise why riot police and hostage teams use smoke as a weapon
187) you'll probably never be able to say the word "thighs" without looking like someone whose name appears on a register somewhere
188) or preceding it with the word "naked"
189) which may cause problems in polite company at dinner-time when referring to chicken.

190. You still have 'Close' and 'Open' written on your hand in blue permanent marker.

191. You know that there IS no up or down.
192. The 4 syllables rule made you tell the police your full name so you suspect you are now on a deviant behaviour list somewhere. Therefore if some fascists ever take power and you get taken away it will be the fault of Cecilians.
193. You seem to be the only one to not have sobbed uncontrollably yet, but you can feel it coming.

195. You left something at every after party. Incidentally, if someone has seen my swiss army knife...?
196. Do you want some shreddies?
197. The police turn up. You shout cock rather loudly.
198. You were timed in the bathroom and took 41 seconds, to the absolute horror of everyone in the queue.
199. The tan is starting to wear off. You can't decide if you're happy or horrified.
200. You nearly wet yourself with excitement that the aftershow was at Lillias Pastia's tavern.
201. You worry that Jonathan Salmond can see through you like a book. More worrying thing was, he was right.
202. You thought it was a good idea to go to the seaside on a whim after the after party.
203. You slept for nearly 24 hours after the aftershow.
204. You know that finale group 2 is the place to be.
205. I WILL finish writing fond eyes, gays, and a door before the day is out.
206. Someone walked in on you. You accepted it and carried on.
207. You walked in on someone else. You accepted it and carried on.
208. Amy and Gregor saw you stumble into the same bottle bag... twice.
209. You apologised to the door for walking into it.
210. You tried to juggle to prove that you can still do it whilst drunk. Turns out you can't.
211. You were gutted that 3 out of 4 people missed sexual deviancy o'clock.
212. You want to do a show next year where Amy lives happily ever after after, and doesn't die every night!
213. When you're asked how much you've had to drink, best not try and remember, you'll only confuse yourself. Best just to say "Too Much" and mumble your way back to sleep.
214. When your flatmates are confused because you told them you had a line to say, you have to console them with the fact people talked over it, and frankly theirs were in better english accents.
215. You know Rob is a bad influence.
216. You've done two firsts in a week. One involves pies!
217. Your voice now sounds like a terrible phone sex operator.
218. You know the band have very good banter.
219. Your flatmates' first comments were regarding the nudity of Amy Glover and not actually regarding your performance.
220. Your flatmates' second comments were regarding Susanne's on stage masturbation and not actually regarding your performance.
221. You gave up on waiting to be complimented by your flatmates and went to the pub instead.
222. Your costume was held together with safety pins.
223. You are putting the bag of gay in your cupboard until next year.
224. You are excited about the revue because it means you won't suffer from Cecilian withdrawal this year.
225. You now have more love for Emma Fraser because she found your swiss army knife!
226. You curse the 3 people that posted whilst you were writing this list!
227. You only went to a lecture today with the sole intention of writing the below list...
228. You went round the aftershow drawing on peoples cups. As you get more drunk, the insults get worse.
229. You still have love for the pies.
230. You want to do the finale for one last time just to prove to Gregor that you won't fuck up after the 3/4 section again.
231. You brought a rubber without prompting for rubbing out scores.
232. You persuaded randomers to come after talking to them after donating blood. THEY ACTUALLY CAME!
234. You remember drinking a mystery drink made by Ian Alexander. It tasted like benylin but went down a treat.
235. You've seen desmond with Rob McMillan style eyebrows and a moustache.
236. You nearly broke the TV when reaching for the beer pump.
237. The need for a D string on Daly's guitar annoyed you more than the Rubic's cube.
238. The Rubic's cube was completed at one point at the aftershow!
239. You managed to (in)coherently ask Goolies for a bacon sandwich, fell asleep, woke up and declared undying love for her because she'd brought you a bacon sandwich which was just what you needed...
240. You fell asleep in front of the door so no-one could go home without saying goodbye (not that you were in any state to say *anything*)
241. You filled the smugglers' baskets with condoms.
242. Kenny didn't let you do the Rubic's cube on stage.
243. You thought you were over someone. Turns out you weren't.
244. Your cecilian hoodie will walk into the wash one of these days.
245. You thought Jonny B was actually wearing tights. Turned out it was Daly's legs.
246. You hope there's a support group for people that relive the show by writing these lists...

195. You absentmindedly find yourself humming 'Toreador' in the middle of University Gardens
196. You feel shocked and desolate that you need not go to the theatre every night

247. You are slightly disappointed that Esther's award was for "Services to the tech crew" and not actually "Servicing the tech crew"... Sorry Esther!
