Hallo, folks.
Well, I am sick, also. I don't really have anything wrong with my throat. It's all in my chest. I spent thirty minutes coughing before I went to sleep last night. I missed school yesterday and went for half a day today. I think I had a fever for a while. I got really dizzy in fifth hour (Mrs. Crawford--English) and when I asked Mrs. Crawford what I needed to make up she was like, "Too bad. You should already know." So, I was panicking, trying to read the last ten pages of the story that I "should have already read" so that I could answer questions about the ending I didn't know anything about. Thankfully, after taking up some of these questions, she gave us another fifteen minutes since we "clearly didn't know how to write it." After lunch, I asked her again about my homework, this time saying I was sick. She then went, "Well, why didn't you say so? Speak up next time!"
The real point of this entry is One-Act. This Tuesday, Mr. Peters held auditions for the one-act play this year for competition. I prepared two contrasting monologues (as instructed):
As You Like It
He was to imagine me his love; his mistress, and I set him every day to woo me. At which time would I, being but a moonish youth, grieve, be effeminate, changeable, longing and liking, proud, fantastical, apish, shallow, inconstant, full of tears, full of smiles; for every passion something and for no passion anything as boys and women are for the most part cattle of this color; would now like him, now loathe him; then entartain him, then forswear him; now weep for him, then spit at him; that I drave my suitor from his mad humor of love, to a living humor of madness, which was to forswear the full stream of the world, and to live in a nook, merely monastic. And thus, I cured him, and this way will I take upon me to wash your liver as clean as a sound sheep's heart, that there shall not be a spot of love in it.
Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day
I went to sleep with gum in my mouth and now there's gum in my hair, and when I got out of bed this morning, I tripped on my skateboard, and I could tell it was going to be a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day. I think I'll move to Australia. After school, Mom took us all to the dentist and I was the only one who got a cavity. Come back next week and I'll fix it, said Dr. Fields. Next week, I siad, I'm moving to Australia. There were lima beans for dinner, and I hate limas. There was kissing on TV and I hate kissing. When I went to bed, my brother took back the piillow he said I could keep, and the Micky Mouse night light burned out, and I bit my tongue. It was a terrible, horrible, no good very bad day. Mom says some days are like that. Even in Australia.
I went before Jyssica, my irresponsible and rude roommate from London (the other one was awesome). I did pretty good on the monologues themselves. I only messed up on my name. It came out, "Molly Tu-tu-turner." I thought I did well, considering I was the ONLY FRESHMAN THERE. I knew the next day would be callbacks. Mr. Peters said, "Just because I didn't call you back doesn't mean you didn't get a part." I was too sick to go to school that day. I wondered all day whether or not my name had been on the call back list. I figured that Jyssica would probably get the lead; that would be just my luck. Finally, I decided to call Renee. I found out I wasn't on the call back list. I wasn't too surprised. I figured, well, I'll probably just be an extra and he doesn't need to see me again." Then, after school today, I was in the Drama Room waiting to be picked up, and, as my eyes glazed over the room, I spotted a cast list on the call board. It was just like some movie. I walked closer to it, tingling with anticipation, then scanned the names on the list to see...that my name was not on there. I was disappointed, but again, not too surprised. I am a freshman, after all, and must Pay My Dues. But, I am going to try out for the TCP play coming up, and I have a feeling that I will be in that one. Well, I am going to go eat something since all I've had to eat today was a bag of animal crackers and a cold piece of sausage (EW!) pizza.
