Oh My Wit

  I forget everything
Today was a slightly more bludgy day - all the studying I did was watch/listen to some My Private Idaho extras (I'm using it as an English related text) and read some of Ben Elton's The First Casualty (World War One revision for Modern).

We had a meeting with a rep. from our publisher for the Yearbook, so things shall be moving along soon. Katy has become the Chief, I think. I'm the second-in-command - yay! ^_^

I got the INNUENDO album! And it turns out I get a 20% off next time from Borders since I'm signing up with their mailing list/propaganda.. I knew I should have bought some Wild Act manga and waited until I had another 20% off discount... However, I am thoroughly enjoying the sounds of '91, and some of the tracks are just beautiful. Queen at its 'end', with some loving songs of Freddie Mercury. Some of my favourites from my Greatest Hits too, including Innuendo itself. So I listened to the CD twice and a bit already.

Kate came in and joked about how 80s music was so fun (because it's so bad or something), and I had to correct her - early 90s, please. Yet, probably a lot of it was recorded earlier.

My legs are sore from walking to the station this morning and then becoming Igor the evil creature for our drama performance for parents tonight. Lots of fun, and if I can get a video of it, I'll put it up somewhere.

It was weird to have people watching and laughing - we haven't had a cold audience before. Admittedly, Amie laughs more than everyone, but other people laughed too. The only concern there would be that we increase the time of the performance, waiting until it's died down.. It all depends.

And we're cutting out a theatre sportsy line that Rowe imagined she heard tonight, which was originally:

Only $4738.95. Call now and you'll receive a free set of steak knives!

..So you can slit your wrists in style!

Well, we only had the price and 'call now' tonight, but we'll just replace it with another rhyme... I asked the mother what she thought our piece was about, and she came up with the same ideas that we wanted to convey, which is excellent and it means we're on track. We really only have to polish now, but I can't say too much more because some of our future year ten audience members may be reading.. *smiles*

My face is tired from crazy expressions, laughing in rehearsal at ridiculousness, and trying not to laugh during the performance... I managed to keep a straight face during one of the stupidest moments, so I'm quite proud of myself.

In a humble way, of course. ^.-

So I'm going to chill with some Civ II for an hour, have a fretful sleep, and study hard tomorrow! Hwa!

Oh dear. Exams shall not be fun. But they shall soon be over!


Faith makes us sure of what we hope for and gives us proof of what we cannot see.
