Ouch of the Brain variety.

There are far far far too many things happening at the moment.
I shall list them to emphasize my point:

1) AS level exams starting in a week. Oh dear.
2) Driving lessons. Although they've fizzled out slightly due to lack of funds
3) A new job at the Bosham Inn. I need the dosh rather badly.
4) I'm in the lovely Scotsman's play!! That is very exciting.
5) My Spanish oral exam is on Thursday. I should probably learn that.
6) Preparation for the Edinburgh Festival. I am playing Francipante. Cool.
7) Splitting time between la mamma, la papa and the ill grandmammas. If I was very rich I'd put all my relatives in one huge mansion so that I'd be able to see them all lots.

It doesn't sound like that much but put it into context, (I am unorganized and useless and a bit scatty) and I think you'll find that this amount of busyness is a recipe for disaster.

Moving on to my next random thought. I was trying to practice writing essays about Stanislavski for my drama exam. I am aware that, to a great many people, he was revolutionary and pioneering and made theatre what it is today. But he was a bit of a pretentious old sod wasn't he. I mean, I think all of his techniques make a lot of sense - he cleared the way for realism and sincerity of emotion on stage and an empathetic audience. But how on earth he managed to repeat himself and waffle on enough to stretch his principles across 3 books is a complete wonder. This led, almost inevitably, to my essays all being of the same nature: blundering and repetitive. Hmmmm, I think perhaps some more revision is in order.

What else is new? Well, I am currently excited for my Cowboy because he is doing an Open University course on photography. Hopefully it will help him open some new doors and nice things like that. I will be there to give him a little push over the threshold too because I don't want him to miss any opportunity - that photographering malarkey is a competitive business y'know!

And here's something VERY exciting! I am going to Glastomaberryyyyy. I am most excited about this. I have compiled a list of things I must aquire if the weekend is to be perfect such as: A nice straw hat, lots of hippy bangles, some hair clips shaped like daisies, baby wipes (in excess) and a poncho. If anyone knows where such items can be aquired I would be most grateful. Ta.

Over and out. I s'pose.
