HatingPeople Can be Enjoyable


Tonight was the first night of SAST (Short Attention Span Theater) and i am the SM (Stage Manager) / production manager (ish ish) in short i was in charge of the whole thing 11 yes 11 different shows. just a note half of them never showed up for their rehersals. Well it went really really well only one show was messed up. But any ways. This one person on my crew who we shall call Tom just so they have a name. Well he is in not only the drama 4 class but also the tech class on my crew. So yes he knows all the shows but he did not know the tech cues. So he believes he is all high and mighty and doesn't need to come to rehersal cause he is just sound. HA HA HA . I say come to rehersal stupid head! I do believe that by the end of the show tonight i really am enjoying the fact that i hate him even though i shoudn't enjoy it but i do it's odd. But really is it possible to enjoy the fact that you hate some one? Right now i do believe it is possible because by hating him and leting him know that i feel that really relives me and all the stress of the production goes away. But yes i know that later i will regreat acting this way to him even though it relives my stress it will most likely just cause more stress later when he decides to act that way towards me. So in answer to my question, it is possible to enjoy hating someone but it will just come back and bite you in the ass sooner or later so for everyone who may read this just know that it is not always a good idea to tell people you hate that you hate them so you should learn from my mistake.

Drama Teens Lives



In drama 4 there term project thingy ish was to write a play and then they are being preformed by the drama 3 and 4 kids. I found out today that i am the SM (stage manager) yeah and they are in a week but i will be ok and handle it. But anyways i just finished reading the scripts of a few of them and most of the shows are based off personal experiences. Well more than 65% i guess ish are really depressing and are about death, drugs, depression, players, etc. It's depressing! and to top it all off one of the people you would never think would be in a situation like such has one of the most depression plays. Why do people hide their feeling? I do believe that one reason all people but expecially teens hide it is because they want to fit in with others and be happy with others. They act happy so people wont ask questions about what wrond and such. This is one reason i am very worried for most of my friends. Here where i am highly involved in drama and so are all my friends i know that they can act and hide it and are really good at it. So in answer to my question people hide feelings to fit in and to not stand out as the depressed kid who may just go kill them self tonight. But i guess it is just how the brain works.

Pictures


Can a picture really say a million things? Take this picture for instance. When we took this picture i was angry and just wanted the whole world to be shot in the head so i could watch it bleed to death. Is that what this picture says? Most people that have looked at it think that i am really happy and my boyfriend is the who i am looking at. In reality it is quite the opposite i was looking into space trying not to look at casey who really was making me angry and depressed. Also does me, who always has my hair in a pony tail, having my hair down have a sexual meaning? At least to me it does not it means to me that my hair tie broke cause of casey. In the end though i do believe that pictures can tell a million words they may not always be the words or thoughts of the person in the picture telling the "story" but they do tell stories.

Cheating


Why do people cheat? Some people are so obcessed with winning they will do anything to win including cheating. Sorry to say but yes i was apart of this act of "cheating" but really could it be called cheating? This last few days we were at shakespeare competition in cedar city, Utah. It was really fun, full of drama, but hey we are drama people at a drama competition. Well anyways, in the tech olympics every team was cheating. This year they did not have it garded or anything you could just walk on in it was cool. so i don't really know if i actually cheated or not but that is kinda becides the point. The one thing that i decided really bugs me about cheating is when you cheat with a full out plan just so you can win. Mountain view high school Utah has won four years in a row and this year would have been our fifth except that mountain view mesa half ass cheated and won. the tech olympics is all about the fastest time you can do your event. There are six events: Audio, Rigging, Costumes, Props, Construction, and Lights. Mountian view mesa in every event tried their hardest to get as much done in 30 sec and and then call time and just take all the penealty times. Whith this they won. they really didn't even try that hard to win if you think about it but yet they did it kinda really makes me angry. It was not full out cheating but close enough. it was "half ass cheating". Does a trophy really mean that much? But still i think that they cheated just so that they could steal our golden makita trophy and that it was really the only way that they could have won it cause they suck! people cheat so that they can believe that they are better then someone else or another group of people and then rub it in their faces. I still must say a silver spot light is really cute and adds to our colection and we did a kick ass job! well done every body!I Love you all our team rocked all the socks off all the people!
