Exciting Day

12 March 2012 ( Monday)


Today I almost, ALMOST can't wake up from my sleep but what a lucky me. My grandma shake me up like she is shaking a doll. From the whole journey to campus, all what I want is a good sleep so that I can can concentrate and have more energy in theatre class.

Nice! I've reached at campus about 7.20am and I still have a little time to sleep in class. HAHA! I walk into the class and some of the students already arrived. So, I pick a slot and then straight go to sleep but I can't really sleep because some of the students at there talking. OMG!

Very fast, the class starts and we greet Mr. Rey. Mr. Rey then asks us about the mid term and any comments or criticize of it. I don't have any comments because I think that my mid term is good enough. Normal activity before the real lesson starts-warm up. This time's warm up is a bit special, we hit our face, massage our lips, hit your chest and others. I saw someone hit his face damn hard and he actually "OW!". HAHA! After that, Mr. Rey orders us to find a partner and then "wake" each other up through hit each others bodies. LOL! This warm up end up a fighting exercise.

Now only the lesson starts, Mr. Rey asks whether we've already paid the photocopy fees to Celine and some of them haven paid yet. Never mind, Mr. Rey then assign the students into group. 1st is the Wednesday group students then the Friday group. My teammate is Zong Yong and for my impression of him, I think he is quite a cooperative guy. Then, Mr. Rey gave each group 2 books and he calls us to find any play in the book within 2 weeks and if not mistaken we need to perform in front of the public. That's cool.

No longer, Mr. Rey gives us a script and then calls us to get back in our group that he previously assigned. After that, he calls us to pick a character in the script and then just read it. The reading that Mr. Rey wants is without any meaning of it. Then this exercise continue with high status and low status. At 1st is A be the high status and then switch status. Next is the silence beat, every sentence we say must have at least 1-3 seconds silence.

Now, this is fun. Mr. Rey orders the A's students to stand up and be a big bully sort of and the B's sit down. Then we switch character and then Mr. Rey says that after the big bully bullies enough, the B's should walk away from the big bully. After that, the big bully try to reconcile with the B's.I found out is kinda hard sometimes because some of the character doesn't really express their character from the script and every sentence in the script is only 1 word. After that, is the flirty scene and then the bed scene. This is really GAY! OMG! But me and Zong Yong like can cope it. HAHA!

Class is going to end, before that Mr. Rey gave us another assignment that is based on what we did just now and we also must follow the script and we can repeat the words. My group, Mr. Rey gave the scene is Operating Theatre and Bedroom. GREAT! Again, bed. OMG!
