We had to perform a play for english. We are the first group to perform in our section. WHAT. I was very nervous if we could even be able to pull the play off. We didn't have like serious practices and the script is extremely long. I had to edit it like three times before we got to the final script and it was already a week away. We only had our legit practices a few days before we had to perform it. I am so glad that we were able to perform it! It was also a good enough production for a play that we had only practiced for a few days! Yeah. We are irresponsible people. I had a really fun time acting in one! I thought I would forget all my lines but I was able to memorize them! That's so awesome! It is awesome because I didn't really MEMORIZE my lines. My script was always with our director because I used my copy to edit the script so I wasn't able to bring a copy home and really memorize my lines. I just had to rely on the practices that were held. I was also the one who found the script and I had read it a million times because of my many edits that I had practically memorized the whole thing. I am so happy I did. I just don't have the time and the willingness to memorize my lines. I just, you know, rely on stock knowledge and stuff.
I just...somehow I got really irritated with a group member of mine. She kept telling me all these things that I should do and she wasn't even the director. And I just got really irritated because Veeyotch, I was the one who freaking found this freaking script, don't freaking tell me what to do because I know exactly what I should do. It is freaking why I picked this script because I like what is going on. And really? You don't even freaking know the story! You can't tell me what to freaking do. I know what I should do. And also, I didn't know that we just HAD to follow the exact lines in the script. Sometimes, We forget a few words of the line okay? Nobody is freaking perfect. We just have to make sure that like the point of what we have to say in that line is the same. You can change it if you forget it but it should still have the same point. You even have a lot of mistakes in saying your lines but we don't freaking correct you because we freaking know that nobody is perfect.
Ugh. I just don't like how she doesn't understand. It's like she has to correct everyone's mistakes, that we should really follow the script. DOES SHE NOT KNOW THAT NOT EVERYONE CAN REALLY MEMORIZE THE EXACT WORDS OF THE SCRIPT ALL THE TIME? We forget every now and then! That's the purpose of practices! It is so we could improve and stuff!
Anyway, the play was a success. The audience was laughing meaning we were doing our jobs right because it is a comedy. Even the teachers were laughing. I knew it! I KNEW that the people would love the dialogue! It's really funny and it's not even like cheesy funny or something. It really has this witty kind of humor in the dialogue. I love it! Everyone was really good. They remembered their lines, they acted real good and I just enjoyed the whole thing. It's so nice that all those practices paid off even when there were only few. I didn't enjoy that we had to really shorten the script. We had to cut a bazillion scenes and I really like those scenes because they are really funny and they are fun to act. I was nervous that because we had cut off so many scenes, the audience wouldn't be able to understand the story then. That would be so bad. The audience HAS to know how awesome this story is. We just have to do it justice. It all turned out good in the end. I am sad that a lot of my favorite scenes had to go and also a lot of my favorite lines but still, a few remained and I love it. At least I was able to beat up a guy. I mean, not REALLY beat up a guy. You know, I had to do it in stage, slap a guy a lot. I didn't know it would be fun (Ha! I sound so crazy right now. YES. I ENJOY SLAPPING A GUY AND SHOUTING THINGS LIKE "WHY DID YOU HAVE TO DO THAT? WHY CAN'T YOU BE FAITHFUL TO ME? I THOUGHT YOU LOVED ME!". You know, lines like that. They are really awesome lines to say. I'm so mad in that scene and I love it. I rarely get mad and hit a person so I am glad that I was given an opportunity to do it. Though...I wasn't really mad and it wasn't really real but whatever. I got to veech slap a guy on his face (Come on. I don't want to curse!)
Veech slapping a guy on his face, no matter why, is always very fun.
