I Want To Be Your Canary - World Premiere

So tomorrow is the world premiere of the tragedy I Want to Be your Canary, written, directed by and starring Spenser with support from the Masqueraiders. I myself am only a "Lowly" Techie. I am the sound operator and I must say my sounds kick ass, unfortunatly this is my first time behind the sound board for a production so I'm a little unexperienced but I'm sure I'll do fine. I feel kinda sad cuz at last Sears Festival I was onstage(Not to boost but I even won an award) and that is where I feel most comfertable. Not making the play this year and last hurt...alot. Especially this year when I knew going into it i wasn't going to be cast because the roles had mostly been cast already in Spensers mind (not truly his fault it's hard not to do) but I nailed my audition and was better then several people in it. But some where better then me so Hey, being a techie wasn't a bad experience. I have a new found respect for them, but I stil prefer film to theatre and If i'm doing theatre being onstage rather then off. Sucks for me I don't have thhe typical "pretty look" most female roles in my schools plays seem to require. *Sigh* oh well...tomorrow we perform for the school, Thrusday Sears. I think we have a shot of making it to regionals. It is really a good play. IF we can manage to be under time.

Avatars

Oscars, Writers block and more

Well It's been quite a while since I've posted anything significant. That either means my life has been crazy busy or insanly boring. In truth it's a little of column A and a little of column B with a dash of laziness thrown in. :D

Tomorrow night is the Academy Awards! YAY! i'm such an award show junkie. I love all of them, but the Oscars are...the superbowl of award shows! Quickly some of my favourites who I really want to win. For best supporting actress Michelle williams for brokeback mountain, and if not her Amy adams ( Ihavent' actually seen Junebug but I've loved all the clips I've seen of her in it and I plan on seeing it next week). Best supporting actor George Clooney! he deserves an oscar and it really doesn't matter what for. Best Actress, Reese witherspoon, is she not the most versitile actress out there. best actor, I haven't seen Capote but I like Philip Seymour Hoffman and hes pretty much a lock, But I LOVED Heath Ledger in Brokeback Mountain and would love to see him win. Which brings me to best picture, I've only seen 2 (brokeback and Crash) but Brokeback was so good, and so sad, and so well acted and written and such a groundbreaking movie with accuratly depicted homosexuals (they ain't all designer wearing self obsessed incredibly feminine people like most movies depict) .

ALright Now that thats out, on to the Writers block. In my writers craft class we have two assignments due soon. One a writing journal where we are suppposed to experiment with our writing and different techniques. 2 of those are due monday and I haven't even started, when I write its with a purpose in my mind, usually. The second assignment is the beginning of a short story. I have lots of good ides but they all seem recycled and copied. I cant' think of my own original idea, and I don't want to write something that has been written a million times over, I at least want to put my own flavour in it.
