Hello Readers,
In less than a week, my cast and I will be performing our second unit in our GCSE Performing Arts class, and we are nowhere near ready!
We thought Unit 1 was rushed for time but this is just madness! I have only just learnt my lines for the second play: 'Matchgirls' and I keep mudderling up my lines in the frist play: 'Metamorphosis'!
I can feel the pressure building up and, by the arguments breaking out in rehearsals, I think everyone else is too.
It's never a good thing when you're pushed for time but when you have to perform two plays in under a week, four times, and people still need their scripts... man, we are in trouble!
I've been going a little mad about it all and have been told countless times that; 'It'll all turn out well in the end, don't worry, you'll be amazing!' Yes, I like the compliment -I mean, who doesn't?- but it doesn't make me feel better, just adds on the pressure!
In Unit 1, the Pantomime, I was the second narrator (Jonathan Harker) in Trinians Transalvanian Trip -basically it's St. Trinians meets Dracular- and, as I thought it was going to be a complete and utter failure, I told my friends and family not to come. In the end, it turned out much better than any of the cast, and the Director, expected and everyone wants to come to see this Unit.
As they didn't come to the first one, they kind of have to come to this one -so they believe anyway.
I just really hope everyone gets their butts in gear and puts their blood, sweat and tears -me included!- into making this Unit the best every and making it truely memorable for the audience. In a good way.
I was planning on moaning more about other GCSE exams but it's nearly 11pm and I'm feeling totally out of it.
Catch you later, looking for life's loopholes.

Time's Running Out.
Hello Readers,
It has now been two weeks since we've moved into our new house and I still hae the same view of it; it's okay but still doesn't feel like home. I don't think any house will feel like home, not for a while anyway.
I've decided that I'm going to get my friends to chip in for a leaving present for my best mate. I'm thinking of getting her a big silver locket, she did mention that she's always wanted one and I think it'll be a great thing to get her before she leaves England next month.
As of Friday, I've been going out with a guy who is just brilliant! And as he attends to my school, I've spent most of my lunch with him today which really was great but I don't want people to feel like I'm leaving my friends out.
We haven't been going out for long, but I do really like him. I just need to make sure I equal out my time with him and my friends.
If I let them all know what I want, what I'm thinking, I'm sure they'll understand.
Tomorrow, it'll be a week until my cast and I will be performing our plays, 'Matchgirls' and 'Metamorphosis', and we haven't perfected it at all! Our director isn't happy at all and I can see why but in our defence, he hasn't let us have enough time going over both plays and our time is quickly running out!
Well, off to memorise my lines.

What A Night!
Hello Readers,
Last night I had a free house, but I didn't throw a massive party; just went to one instead.
It was my friends birthday party and before I arrived at his I went to meet up with two of my mates who were going too.
With a bottle of Lambrini in my hand and vodka in my bag, we were all ready for an awesome night.
After a few others turned up at the party we all started having a laugh and dancing -or in my case randomly bouncing- in the house.
A lot of funny things happened that night but I think the funniest would have to of been my friend Will going around trying to remember peoples names whilst being totally out of it.
And yes, my best mate was right, I was the only girl there wearing trainers -which I still don't get why it's such a bad thing- but I had the last laugh when they were all moaning about their feet later on.
Some time that night we heard that someone threw up and that someone was Will so I went over to see if he was alright and he was insisting that he wasn't drunk at all and that he didn't throw up. Bless him.
Him and some others had to get their parents to pick them up early as they were too out of it to stand, while the rest of us drank the rest of the boozes and just laughed through to early hours of the morning whilst the music played.
Ah, can't wait for the next house party!
But after seeing so many people throw up, I don't think my Sweet Sixteen will be at home.... not my home anyway.
It was great to see everyone just relax and have a laugh, a great end to a rubbish week.
Well, wonder what this week has in store for me...
