Overview

I have just had THE best day! It wasn't all that special but so much better than i thought, plus i cried from laughter ALL day. First I should talk about A Mid Summer Night's Dream because my last post was negative and it needs an update.

OMG AWESOME!!! Monday was the worst, but still not that bad. Tuesday kicked ass and that's when everyone got confidence for the rest of the week. By Wednesday Kevin and I added new actions that got a couple chuckles and added character. Thursday was the best show, everyone was the best they've been. Ajay stole the show and honestly he is my HERO. The part of Thisbe can easily be screwed up, but my god he was hilarious. I think Neilson was a little jealous. Friday could've been better but everyone was a tad sad that it was ending. Plus random people were mad at Hari and some people exploded on the stage crew, plus I find out I'm some sort of "other woman" and that kinda killed my mood for the beginning. I was a tad crabby for the first part but i got over it. Overall AMAZING! I got to know people so much better. Like I had no idea who Renu was before this and she is such a doll. Plus I kinda thought Ajay was just annoying and he turned out my hero for the play, I wasn't ever upset Kevin played Theseus but at first I wasn't excited either, but that also worked wonderfully and I couldn't have picked a better Duke. Everyone just fell into their parts. Oh and like Jen from stage crew is a sweetheart too. If you didn't get a chance to watch it, then you missed an awesome show. Tomorrow is Strike the Set and the last time we're all together. *tear* It should be fun though.

Anyway I wrote another blog over the weekend and it got deleted, but I'm glad because it was depressing. My weekend was just depressing because I was super moody and anti-social. I talked to Andrew a lot though and he cheered me up (after saying I told you so) and eventually he told me to just go relax and have a bath. I did, and it actually helped. Then I came to school and band was hilarious. Mr. Henderson was in a good mood and Lisa and I laughed most of the time. Then in French we played a fun game and the weather was being CRAZY. Global warming in effect. Lunch was fun too, a lot of laughs. Physics was also a blast, Mr. Davis is one of my favorite teachers of all time. I might just take Physics 12 because of how fun he makes it. Then I see that the loser who ruined my mood on Friday got a haircut and he's practically bald! Okay, now I'm not incredibly shallow about looks because I'm more conceited. But there's one exception; hair. Maybe it has something to do with my astrological sign (because apparently Leo's have an obsession with hair) but bad haircuts are hard to get over for me. And usually I befriend people faster if they have at least a decent haircut. And man I almost laughed out loud when I saw his. KARMA! Ha! That was the icing on my cake and the day seems to continue being amazing.

I do have to say I'm a little iffy about France/Spain though. The teachers obviously don't know what the hell their doing and are prepared for every 'what if...' possible. Tape on the doors? Please. I kinda want to open my door and break the tape just to see what'll happen. Lol! Anyway I think Mr. Henderson was right about EF though, you only get to see wherever you're going from a tourist point of view and don't really get what you're paying for. China is only $2000 and that's farther and the hotels are better. Whatever though, it'll still be a blast because Europe is pretty cool and they're all foreigners and I love my foreigners. 17 days and counting.

So the Oscars were on last night. Ellen was hosting and I love her. Canada came up pretty fry except an animation Oscar for shorts. I wanted Water to win and Ryan Gosling to win. I still have to see Water though, but I haven't been in the mood for subtitles, it's one of the reasons I haven't watched Pan's Labyrinth yet. Nicole Kidman's dress was awesome except it had a bow and J Lo was pretty hot. Tom Cruise was short as ever but still good looking. Leonardo DiCaprio is my new 2nd favorite actor and I loved him at the Oscars. On Saturday I watched the Aviator and it was hot. Howard Hughes is such a complex character and honestly Ava Gardner got around. Leo rocks my socks, and I really wish a Johnny Depp movie would come out that's not Pirates (not that I'm not excited for the third one) because I can't love his individuality and controversial-ity anymore. Plus because the Libertine isn't forgotten and that was one of the worst movies of ALL time. Come back Johnny!

Other than that all is peachy and good. I 'm getting a haircut on the 10th of March and I'm open to suggestions. And for your enjoyment here is another school's version of the last scenes in A Mid Summer Night's Dream which had it's moments. (Ours was WAY better though)
