Stifling Creativity

Bad news for drama classes at my school... the administration decided that they weren't comfortable with us doing Working. So we can't. Even though it was already cast. That's right--blatant censorship.

I would like to be able to complain a little more, but since we are going to do Complete Works of Shakespeare Abridged instead--which is pretty much the funniest thing ever--I can't. Plus about half our class did it as an in-class project last year, so if they are anything like me, they still have large chunks of it memorized (like the Othello Rap. I wonder if that will be censored too...).

Othello loved Desi like Adonis loved Venus
And Desi loved Othello 'cause he had a big...sword!

End of update....

Physics is evil

I don't actually have anything important to say but im avoiding doing physics because it hurts my brain and school is a pointless exercise. But i love you all madly and think on you often. Call me so I can continue to not do work !

much much love

OH i got into an acting program thingy at Studio theatre in DC so yay!

Finally...

Hey guys. So after being at this school for 3 years, and NEVER getting cast in a theatre department show (well I haven't auditioned since first semester of sophomore year) I auditioned on a whim, and after many hours of my weekend devoted to callbacks, I got cast! I'm playing the Il Dottore character in a Commedia play called "The Master of Two Servants." I think it's gonna be a fuckin blast. Soooo, if by any random chance any of you are in the Northeast around the weekend of Novemeber 16th, you should totally come check it out! So yeah, pretty psyched about this. Hope all of you are doing well...

By the way, I had to write a paper for the program that I did my internship through, so if any of y'all wanna read a short paper I wrote about my time at YCTC, I'd be happy to send it your way.

Let this groove get you to move

HELLOOOOOO!

For some reason, I have a surge of optimism going through me right now, and I think it's because of YCTC and I had a GREAT workout in the pool today. I beat a college boy! WOOT!

What this is about though is our photos. Mollie, dude, Session II has their own webpage full of like, 1000 photos. Where's ours?? AND they got a CD. WTF Mate. Poor Steve Irwin. Crikey. E was a good bloke.

Othello???

OK....does anyone know exactly what's going on with Othello?????? When are people coming??????

love you guys!!!

I'd just like to share that it's 4 AM on a saturday night, and I was just with my two best friends showing them all the stuff we learned in the acrobatics master class. We were doing dinner tables, candlesticks, butt bongos, all that. We are just THAT cool. Hope y'all are doing well...

with a hey, ho the wind and the rain

Hello all.
The title is actually relevant, as school was released at 12:45 today due to torrential rainstorms and the possibility of flash floods. Needless to say, I have been most enjoying this wind and rain.
I've now doin' the School Thing again & just finished my second week back. I'm having a reasonable amount of fun--it's going okay except for a metric ton of homework that seems to be causing me to have a semi-chronic headache and obviously mucho sleep deprivation. But I do get to yayfully wave to Maria every so often in the halls, which is good. And I l got to chat with Fray the other day, while in Staunton after my first violin lesson of the semester, in which I had to play an instrument that I had almost entirely ignored for three months. So there is definitely some yayfullness in my life.
I auditioned for my next play in Drama class yesterday--our fall play at school this year--which is going to be a musical called Working. About people. With jobs. That they talk about. And sing about. Apparently it's really famous....although I had never heard of it. So I'll be able to let you guys know if my first post-Sebastian part will be a teacher, or a waitress, or a millworker, or a housewife, or a....okay, I forget what the other parts were. There WAS a prostitute...but she is to be completely chopped out of our version. Ah well.
Anyway, that's about all for now, because this is kind of extremely long anyway. Hope you're all doing well; make no mistake that I think about you about 20 billion times a day. I'm probably going to be spending a sizable chunk of the weekend taking notes on 25 pages of AP European History text. That ought to make you feel sorry enough for me that you will send me emails. ta ta for now.
