I missed this blog.
It's been almost a month since I last posted a blog. Woah. That's how
busy I was these past several weeks. I missed blogging, and I even said
out loud to a bunch of people one night that I haven't blogged anything
in quite some time now. How ironic. And to think that my last before
this was also about blogging.
Anyway, while I'm taking a break from reading a few pages from Oscar Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest (more on that later), it's time to update.
I finally got to breathe after finishing 3 events in CSB--a full-length
play written by one of the students, a dance revue, and a battle of the
bands contest (wait, that last one sounded somewhat redundant). They all
happened with only one week in between, but the play rehearsals were
the ones that got to me because of the last nights, then I had to come
to the office early the following morning. Talk about ngarag.
I've been faced, or still facing, a certain strange and awkward
situation. I'd rather not elaborate, but I guess I'm just glad that
there are things that I found out now from certain people instead of
from others. What just irked me was that there were some epal people who first started listening in on private conversations,
assuming that it was alright for them to do so. Right now, I'm still
trying to figure out how to handle what's possibly been going on, and
preparing myself for what could possibly happen so I wouldn't have to go
all crazy once we get there.
In my last post, I mentioned a blog camp, and I haven't decided yet
about going. I had checked the airfare going there and back, and I guess
part of my decision is how much I'd be spending once I get my latest
paycheck. Haha, I just found out a few days ago that the person I
referred to at work got accepted, so there would be more money coming in
as an incentive for that. So I guess I'll have to view my paycheck
first tomorrow before I decide, as there are still other stuff that I'm
paying for as well.
One of those is (what else?) this summer's workshop under TP. Sir Dennis
is back teaching Rehearsal and Performance Techniques, and because I
felt hanging after the AC's last session of script analysis class, I
went ahead and enrolled for this class. Rayna's assisting, so it would
be cool that she'd also be in the class.
So there, we're doing The Importance of Being Earnest for our recital. It's actually pretty cool that the number of
characters is the same as how many we are in the class, unlike the last
times I was in RPT. I'm actually pretty excited to do this play,
especially after having read it through at least a couple of times this
week. I still get these bouts of low self-esteem when it comes to my
acting abilities, but hopefully I outgrow it soon. Apparently Sir Dennis
said that I'm a late bloomer when it comes to acting, and I do believe
he's right.
I'm also supposed to be on vocal rest right now. I was sent home from
work Wednesday morning, but because I had the battle of the bands event
that day (hence the purpose of dialing as early as 4am that day), I
couldn't help but disregard the office clinic's EENT's advice to go home
and not go to the event. Ack. But I spent one day of vocal rest
already, except for the fact that I had to speak for 4 hours during
workshop class. Ack, I'm such a bad patient.
Anyway, it's back to the script for the mute little me for a little while before I hit the sack.
To you, the reader, how are you lately? Yes, of course I want to hear from you too.
