For what offence have I this fortnight been a banish'd woman from my Harry's bed?

I, uhm, have a lot to do.

So I entered the ESU Shakespeare Contest and I was called back. So now I'm against my best friend Mark and two other girls. Hopefully I do well. For ESU, you have to recite a monologue (Lady Percy's "why are you spending your nights thinking about war and not with me" speech from Henry 4 Pt 1) and a sonnet (128 -- How oft, when thou, my music, music play'st) So hopefully I do well.

Unfortunately, ESU callbacks are tomorrow--the same day as my Harvard interview, Twelfth Night 1.3 presentation for Shakespeare, and Decathlon. Woo busyness.

But I'm fine, I swear.

I also have a test on two articles for Journalism and Art History Middle Ages unit test on Wednesday, and midterms start on Friday.

=(

I don't remember if I already blogged about this, but Massiel and I are going to sing "What is this Feeling?" from Wicked for Senior Extravaganza. I'm Galinda and I have to figure out a way to be blonde.

Also, we decided that if we do another RA production, we will have to do Midsummer Night's Dream. Here are a few of our casting probabilities:

Bottom – John
Demetrius - Aaron
Helena - Amanda
Hermia - Summer
Hippolyta - Jennie
Lysander – Mark
Fairy - Mackenzie
Philostrate - Semira
Puck – Massiel
Flute - Abbie
Quince - Fani
Snout - Joelle
Snug - Rab
Starveling - Angie
Titania - Michelle

However, not all of these are rock solid. I don't really like Midsummer, but it's the only one really possible as far as duration, degree of acting talent required for it to be believable, and casting.

But I still really want to do a drama. And a movie. Oh, Red Bull Proposal, I wish you were in the works!

The last movie I made was my final project for health. It was a comedy somewhat based off Rent except instead of AIDS everyone had the common cold.

I was Mimi. Acchoo!
