Blog Virginty

It would appear that I have lost my blog virginity. How very exciting. At this moment in time I'm sitting at home, in my room, apparently 'looking after' my brother (Callum, 11). However, it seems to me that he needs very little 'looking after'. Sat in front of a PlayStation with a bag of crisps to keep him company, that boy could amuse himself happily for hours. So my purpose isn't really being served.

Anyway, I have my fingers tightly crossed for all those who are involved in the Wild Duck. The performance is well underway as I type so I hope they're enjoying themselves! It is a very intense piece of theatrical genius (arguably) and I know that analysing the various meanings and metaphors has been quite mentally draining for most of the people involved. They are a hugely talented bunch and I hope that they get the appreciation they deserve from the audience! I will clap them from where I sit 'cos they are blooming marvellous.

'Now' is a very busy time. At the moment, arrangements for the sixth form fashion show are very much in motion. I'm going to model (should be chucklesome) and I'm in a dance (which will be bloody hilarious). The fact that I have no co-ordination is not going to discourage me in either of these ventures! So there.

Then there's the school musical, 'Just So'. I don't seem to be able to get through one rehearsal without being overwhelmed with frustration! Not least because I'm playing the part of (drum roll please..) The Rhino. Yes, that leathery-skinned, horned creature will be me in a few months time! "I'm glad I've got a fair old lot of carbuncled sweaty and hot thick skin." Hoorah.

Along with homework, coursework, drama, work and friends, it's a busy ol' time. P.s. It's nearly my birthday. P.p.s. It's nearly Christmas. I love Christmas. The thought alone actually makes my smile from ear to ear.

And here is a place for me to openly vent all my random thoughts and the lark. Ta-da.
