I feel sick. That's my excuse for not having posted for ever. Even though I only started feeling gross on like sunday. I've had a cold forever though (the beginning of time, I swear! Ever since that Norse guy was carving his shoe, I was standing behind him snuffling and coughing on him. Ever wondered how a shoe could take that long? It's because he kept on having to sanitize it because I was throwing my dirty kleenexes at it and coughing and sneezing on him. In the beginning of time there was no such thing as covering your mouth.). I'm going to have to tuff tomorrow out because we have the PreSAT/ACTish things, or maybe PIT (pretty important tests). So I'm not going to miss those.
The play is moving along unsmoothly (It's only day two) I have to play babysitter/mother hen to a bunch of sixth grade girls that just about make you want to giggle/scream, I haven't decided what. One of them doesn't even want to be in the play and wants to be home in bed, she hasn't quit just because she won't get her money back. One of them is really helpful and mature though (thank god at least one of them is sane) then theres a some-what-helpful but a bit distracted one, who i appreciate also. The rest play their violins (in the middle of writing the script) lie to me go to the bathroom without asking, throw cheerios at eachothers face without cleaning them up afterwords, litter and play tricks on eachother. I'm CONSTANTLY having to do a head count to make sure none of them ran away and died. The scary scary part is: there are only FIVE of them! I was supposed to have two more but they haven't shown up yet. Also, having only known them about 2 1/2 hours, I know all of their names and nicknames ect.
So I wrote the script by asking them what two lines they'd all like and preoducing our section of the script soley off of their input, with my lines worked it. It's okay but I'm scared of giving it to the play director, I feel like it's too long, not focused enough, not funny enough, or generally sucks.
I hate the veteran's interview project with all of my heart. I wish it was dead.
That is all. *Bow*

YAY!! U POSTED!!!
and sorry for the 6th graders... trust me, i know how u feel... last year, i had 2 deal with 10 OF THEM ON MY B-BALL TEAM!!!! AHHHHHHH!!!
I have a new chick for me to mother-hen. She was one of them that didn't turn up on the first two days. I also learned that the other girl that didn't come yet is on a trip and will be back on monday. Let's see me work with 7! (magical number yayz). So we wrote in their parts. Today was much better because two of the biggest usurpers(sp) were skipping out on helping w/ the script.
The ones who were helping me were obsessed with everybody getting exactly the same amount of lines, arguing over what lines they got, deciding whether group lines counted as a line and deciding which was the hottest guy in 6th grade. I tried to tell them "there are no small parts, only small acters" in my wisest voice, but they still freaked out about how three of them only had four lines (oh em jee!). They made my headache worse so i'm gonna go up to my room and do homework in the dark with all the shades down. Can you say "migraine?" (more like, can I spell it? lol)
Now I get a break from them till monday!
Wow, consider this a mini blog post and sorry bout all my ranting, but i need to vent somehwere.
they were talking about the hottest guys in grade 6? those people are.. puny! and they are in 6th grade! eww...
Ya it was sorta scary. And none of them had a problem telling me who they liked the most or how they were trying to get him to like them. It was all so cute and funny.
That is hilarious
I feel your pain though
