HEY BABY! (Drop it to the Floor) - Pitbul

Last weekend

1) Fui al one act play. Vi The Other Side. No me gusto. porque? porque:

a) aunq la idea estaba pajasa me aprecio que pudo ser mejorada de las sieuigentes maneras.

a.1) yo creo que debio haber sido toda una historia y toda la otra. Eso hubiese reducido los tiempos tan largo de cambios de escena que malograban el hilo de la historia.

a.2)Los personajes no tenian character: eran losa ctores mesclados con su personajes de down to earth.

a.3) MAS ENSAYO! hubiese qeudado pajasa.

a.4)espejo, pineda y jordan! caminaban same side.

good things:

a) scene INCREIBLE.

b) concepto del espejo! BUNASO.

LA JAULA DE LAS LOCAS.

el sabado fui a ver las jaulas de las locas lo cual me parecio PAJASA. En una parte estaban en un bar /restaurant como mi independent entonces me ayudo bastante.

a) la mesa...con mesas atras. un farol? ...

b) mejor cubos? o mesa de adeveras?

Pregunta: seria mejor ... scenary de verdad? o ...cubos! PROBLEMS!...veremos.

Hoy me quedo a independent. Ya tengo script (finaly) el lunes comenzamos los ensayos con script. vamos bien ...necesito hurry up. TODO FRESH.

Dj got us falling in love again - Usher

Holler! so today we went to watch the play GOLDEN HAWK which was rather a Cirque Du soleil performance. It was this incredible actions that told the story of bird? maybe? ..don't know. the thing is it as a mute play ..so no words rather than APU -------(quechua word).

Gudshi about play-oh:

1.- The guy-oh was painted blanc-oh. Good! it made me think of my independent project and how it would look to have painted actors on stage. It look kewel...and the thing is a realized personaly i like all the actors painted ( he had his plantadelpiei skin color). Now! why was he white? no idea... but it look cool so ..let him be.

2.- Flying bed! THAT WAS SOOO AWESOME! The images that the play had were great! the light and feathers! ah i liked it so much. Howeever i thought that maybe the same thing could've been used in a differente way (a differn situation for exampl) and it would have worked bettah.

3.-physical work- respiration, oppositions and body control. GUSHI. take that in mind gives strenghts as well as ...awes the audience.

4.- LIGHT-ah .- i tought for the first time that light was good-ah. Blue light = mistehriow. yellow light: ..well normal ligh? ...circle light= MY AMiX! light from above: holy thingy.

BADSHI about PLay:

1.- No words.ah: (noentendeeneemierdah) no words create confusion and makes audince understand the play as they want. Music in the background..didn't like. CHanges were to abrupt.

2.- Second Character: ..why would you use a second character (to create conflict?) if

he does nothing...he just...DOES nothing.

3.-Face: no like face. was to ...Nouba ish. THey reminded me of the four nouba guys of the cirque du soleil.

SO! refleXX(X)ions:

SO as the play went by, many things came up to my mind specially the VISUAL theatre that i like. So i know i say that it is more important the visual than the text. THat doesn't mean that text is not important. ok..so ..this play was Visualy GREAT but with no text and so the main idea wasn't delivered as clear como hubiese sido con texto. NOW.. what i also mean is that it whatever the text is it has to be visualy appealing. FINALLY, when you decide not to use texts and make the audience create it in his heads..the message is lost ..well sometimes and for some people. SO...is there plays that don't have a specific message? is it just ...actions to tell a story..which is not specifi either way?...so what is the diffrence between cirque du soleil and this play?

July Holidays

Buenosdiashpapai. So... we've came back from Paucartambo, but this time i went with the IB nexteles. Interesting points i discovered:

1) IDEALY you shouldn't dance drunk since it is disrespectful and the virgin sees and knows all. so..watch out on that.

2)Practice: they practice only four times (officially) and four (outside paucar) per year...

3) Mask: you can see perfectly with mask (i wore one original one) ok so..it's not like having eyes but i could see better than i expected.

4)negrillos rock

5) costumes: each year you buy a new costume (at leat in majeños) and you do it seperatly (not as a group).

6) if you don't go to the rehearsals then you get 3 typs of punishment: 1) talk 2) written...3)the donald trump "YOU'RE FIRED!".

7) Arianna when sleeps moans, snore and ...throw peds a.k.a Farts

Now, the other interesting thing that was discussed during our Cusco Trip was my I.P. And the point i'm going to reflect on is ... my culture reflected on art. I still don't really get why i can't do the disney princess idea...ok i know its now peru's reality but why is it not mine? I've never seen one but i mean ..i've seen like 120000 times each movie and i like them so much. I KNOW that i'm taking about something that happens in US and i'm not going to see i the streets but listen: hey! I don't want to reflect anything in this play (i know... its not the IB thingy) but personally i see theatre as just a way of entertainment ...going outside your daily rutine remember? ...LET'S TAKE PAUCARTAMBO for example... they adore the virgin 365 days a year however ...they have a special festival once a year...and i don't now lets take for example ...the qollas and the maqtas...ok...they dress up as NOT THEIR REALITY!? so they are not doing it right? not at all...i think that you need to ..focus on the audience then! since there are gringous (world cup, last year it was michael jackson)...BUT ARG..i hate you roberto. (i'm not doing the princess anymore and i'm not working with manuela either...so i need to rebuild my I.P. AGAIN) . I still don't fully agree with all this personal thing culture and stuff....since we are half USAnians...but anyway...

NOW... the question is... when you do a play you focus on the theme? or in the audience? ...what's your aim? to leet you message through? or to entertain the audience? BOTH? ..but then what if you don't really want to teach something ..that just comes along but its not important? ...do AUDIENCE need to RELATE to one in order to be part of the play? or that is just to understand the message? ..and if there is no message? does it because less of a theatre and more of a movie that is just actions in a story? ..... complications complications.

ps: I do get your point by the way..i just don't fully agree with it.

25 best mashup - Dj Earwarm

Ok. SO la play paso. y creo que este proceso tubo un gran final sinembargo ese "PROCESO" fue un, como diria la señorita ari, un oscilar de altas y bajas. Comenzemos analizando wa por wa.

PRODUCTION:

Bueno creo que uno de los MAS GRANDES ERRORES que pasaron por mi mente fue el de termino el script y CHA. taquenopeshwon. fue totlament lo contrario. EL script fue como un basis para toda la obra y luego termino siendo completamente diferentes. La razon mas importante obviamente fue el tiempo. la obra era muy larga (por eso quitamos escenas... remplazandola por la cancion) uhm ... o cosas asi. hubieron otras razones como : no tiene sentido ahora, o ... ala el chiste hubiese sido mejor asi. CREO que eso se debe 1) a que cada uno le mete su propia chispa a la obra. 2) ese era el juego no?. entonces yo creo que mi produccion eventhough el script de la obria termino siendo memory script (ya que los cambiamos nunca loss apunto ni vale ni yo) y que a la gente le gusto puede considerarse como un SCRIPT FAIL.

Ahora si analizo el proceso de production de mis patas en las cuales yo participe como Costumes, Skenary y makeup podria decir que fue masomenos lo mismo. Por ejemplo, arianna tenia un album con las fotos como debian ser... y era todo muy ordenado sinembargo en el ensayo general nos dimos cuenta qeu era muy poco fantasioso. asiq eu yo me insipire en los Kohlas y BIM salio todo una cosa totalemente inesperada. Makeup llego a tal punto de un: chapa el pincel y pintate lo que te de la gana. AUNQUE FUNCIONO...supongo que algo mas pensado y elaborado pudo haber temrinaod mejor. EN Costumes, yo solo forme parte del proceso de la creatividad en verdad yo solo ayude a sebas a dibujar sinembargo el era como el que decia no guta si guta. asi que creo que ahi no me meti tanto. VI COMO EL COLORSKIM QUEDO PAJOLA OCN LOS VILLANOS BUENAXERS. Y skenari...bueno este año creo que si ayude bastante dibujando etc.... y creo que tb termino siendo un concepto paja. PERO ...a la vez fue algo de ultimomento, que el diseño nos permitiera hacerlo MAL no justifica qeu lo hagamos mal verdad?

ACTUACION:

BUENO, yo creo que overall mi actuacion no fue tan geneal como pudo haber sido debido a que:

1) no me sabia mis lineas

2) estaba mas en production que en actuacion

3) creo que me confie mucho.

Aunque creo que cuando tome conciencia de esto comenze a poner mas de mi en las funciones de las que habia puesto al comienzo. Lo que si me di cuenta es de que somos un equipo. al igual que teatro tiene sus production. nosotros como actores somoso iguales. MEDIO que dependemos del otro. si el otro no pone yo no puedo responder. y si yo doy el debe responder....algo asi...una maquina? ...uhm si. A la vez me di cuenta qeu el ritmo que le dan las acciones la hacen ver como una coreografia. LA pelea no era tan diferente a lo que acutabamos. por lo menos yo senti eso.

ENTONCES: con esto nos damos cuenta que si, o BLACK OR WHITE. O PRODUCTION O ACTUACION. cuesta bastante hacer las dos cosas. en eso si tienen razon. AHORA yo tb creo que es una cosa de organizarse. que somos medios que flojos y bueno...17 years...aunq no es excusa pero bueeee.

AHORA ...volviendo al tema de ..maquina y coreografia? es eso? o va mas aya. SUpongo que si se queda ahi es muy vacio. no se si me explico. es algo marcado y sin intencion...o no? ...pero si no tampoco funcionaria...o al darle la intencion cambia. AHORA... a qeu reacciona el actor en la escena!? a lo que pasa? a lo que se dice? o a lo marcado? porque si es a lo que se dice entonces de qeu sirben los ..PIES . para tal caso la improvisasion seria ..MEJOR? ..o no. o simplemente es cuestion de orden. que paja ... odio el teatro.

Friday 4th June

Today we went to watch the play EXTRAS at the Biblioteca Nacional near my crib. Unfortunately for us we went with form II. SHAME ON THEM. they won my "THE LOOK". anyway. Some ideas.

1) The change of characters by the two actors i think was great. The first time i didn't understand what happened but i then catch the idea in no time. Actually i liked it, i think it was great like for example when the other actor hold the others hat. It directly appeals for the audience imagination and attention. Bad thing: sometimes the characters got mixed up. So it was an argentinean talking like a gringa or a guy talking like a girl. But overall i liked it.

2) SCREEN! ..(chupala). marks off for this play. The video in the middle could've been acted or just ...mentioned. no need for the video. (great video btw..)

3) Skenary and Crops. ... the box with wheels wasn't necessary,... nose. didn't like it.

4)The part when they said "OK? OK?" i thought it was brillaint since you where the audience as well as characters and one character whas the acort was well as the audience. Brillaint. I liked that mucho mucho.

SO now, the question: When there is a play where actors change character like clothes. The convention is that there is no character and you are watching the actor change? ...right? I think it makes the play less of a "similar to reality" sort of play because you understand that ... AH! matame. ya me perdi. TOK. but you get the idea right? ..SO, if i change character infront of the audience ..does't that affect the "level of reality" in between the play and does the conection between the audience and the actor is lost since you are watching the actor change. I think it is like the masks huh? ?????

Happy Go-Bday to you - Drama group

Friday 28th May.

Mi cumppleaños niños. Bueno el dia viernes fuimos a ver una obra que se llama Concierto Olvido en Ashkani. La verites es que no me afano tanto como obra, al final todo el mundo se paro a aplaudir pero ..yo creo que (es mi punto de vista personalk ..no fue tan WOW como para pararse). Nevertheless, hubieron cosas BIEN pajuelas que seria rescatables.

1) yo creo que todos agreearan que los sonidosk de la naturaleza fue uno de las cosas mas pajas. y me hizo pensar bastante en GLEE (una actividad en la cual participo) y como estas dos cosas Drama y Glee pueden complementarse para crear algo bien paja. Tambien me di cuenta con esto, que cada actor recurre a su confort zone. me refiero a que Debora Belt siempre usa los sonidos ImaSUmakianos y pajariescos, y la otra amix usaba la oveja "beeeh". ENTONCES ... el actor siempre se basa de sus confort zones? .. nose, siempre veo que rodrigo masomenos actua igual, velantina igual, yo igual .. puede ser. O debora belt uso al viejito...pinguinon.

2) Paucartambo! incluyeron cosas divertidas como los negrillos y otra cosa que me parecio pajasasa fue cuando vistieron al señorito con el terno y se escuchaba la voz del narrador, de la actriz y el susurro de todos los personajes de atras.

3) Colorscheme, funciono bien , sinembargo no me agradan los zapatos. creo que hacen que se vean deformes. Ahora con esto (ya que estaba haciendo mi PPP y queria ver como se veria el fondo negro y vestuario negro ...y yo creo que si funciona. me ayudo a tomar la decision.

4) Mientras la obra pasaba me parecia genial como cada personaje reaccionaba, pero, no parecian personajes isno los mismos actores hablando. facil esa era la intencion de la obra.

5) mientras acuataban estaba pensando en mi IP y ya que voy a usar solo actrices mujeres me di cuenta que debora belt y sus dos amixes (justo de sus costados.. no mike wasawski) era geniales y funcionaban juntas bien. se complementaban, y me parecio genial.

6) en la vida actuamos tanto que para hacer teatro deberiamos dejar de actuar. WIN.

7) no parecia una obra sino ..musica tras musica y cha.

now, BACK TO the comfort zone.... es bueno hacer esto? ..siempre relai en el mismo basis para tus personajes / obra ... yo creo que es algo natural. Si sabemos que esto funciona entonces siempre vamos a tender reaccionar de la misma manera. PERO, que pasaria si lo cambiaramos? ...y como? ...intentando? posibilidades? y a cuantas posibilidades te limita tu confort zone! a matame.

oops....lo escribi en español....bueno es mi cumpleaños, dejenme.

It's My life / Confessions - Glee

Friday 23rd - Saturday 24th

After school, Sebas and I we went to Gamarra to look for "telas" samples for our plays costume. Sebas is in charge of costumes, so, he had already a color scheeme, we just needed to go and ask for prices etc. Luckyly for us, we found telas licradas which was moreorless what we were looking for. There were so many colors, so in the end we took around 40 samples of telas and we paste them on a cartulina to watch them all.

After that, we went to Sebas house to make all the sketches for the costumes. We stayed up all night drawing and coloring, and in the end we made almost all the costumes. There were some that look great such as Nighthawk and arrow, however, there were some that sebas has to change everything (Sparky) or add something (superhereos 1,2 and 3) or change the colors (lievenesses). Doing this i think helped my friend a lot, in the sense of expierence of doing stuff by our own (gamarra) and also in the sense that we are finally working as a team an we know our strengths and weaknesses and we can complement each other with the group. however, i know that i can't do all the work for him and he has to do some himself, and that is exactly whaat happened this weekend. Overall, great job sparky!

The Saturday rehearsal helped me alot in character building, in the sense of how would my character talk, moves and thinks. Now nighthawk is a complete bird, he has no fingers, his arms are wings, and he is like a mistical bird. It reminds me again of Raven, but also of SOMBRA in ppg. And then the "pasada loca" helped us making some cool things such as the "QUICK HIDE!" and the hiding behind the squirrel. I think the play is going to be cool.

Now, I wonder, how much of the adult audience would be entertained by this play? because...we are changing it a LOT making it more and more to a children's play (which is our main aim) BUT, there is not going to be also parents! and those are the ones that chiritsize aren't they. I don't know. I'm really not a big fun of the "SHOULD I BELIEVE THEM? YEESS!" but would it work for both audiences?

Rap Das Armas (Parapapapa) - Cidinho y Doca

Wednesday 21st

so, we went to watch a play at San marcos with Veil, negro, sebas, fea y chachi. It was called "con el bulto en la espalda" and it was a spanish concert, oops, sorry play. I really didn't like it at all. It was a good example of a text just said graphically instead of read. However there were some cool stuff that might come in handy for our play.

1.- Before entering the theatre, they made us stand in two lines and each lines had a sticker "GO HOME" or "HOME SWEET HOME". So, each line had to sit on different sides of the theatre and in one part we had to shout what was written in our chest against each other. Our idea is do the same, making the same thing with Arrow, Sparky and Nighthawk or maybe in the battle VILLAINS against SUPERHEROES. but it could be cool because that way children will feel like "fans" of one side just like in a series, futbol match or play station game.

2.- Still pictures with different levels. It looked great when all the actors stood in the thrust stage in different levels and AS A WHOLE it looked great. I think this is the first time i see it with my own eyes, so in the play we want to do that in for example when the flashbacks happen. hopefully we don't upstage anyone *we have to be carful*. golpe! (golpe).

3.- Some movements were cool. For example when they walked in circles it was very cool, and when they spinned like the ballerina that was also cool.

4.- Color Schemes, the costumes where more or less the same however each had its own different aspects, hopefully we could manage to do the same, maybe with colors.

Golpe! (golpe)

La Foto se me borro - Elvis Crespo

Saturday 19th April

just before i start i have to tell you something. " TE ODIO Y ME MEO EN TI". now, we went to watch a play that THANK GOD was free. It was called "El Album" - Grupo Tecal (colombia). It was OK. The play was like a photo album and made only by still pictures. THAT was cool.

Good things about the play:

*color schemes: the characters were great! i like that the skin was painted and the clothes matched the skin tone. its was great (tho... if you knew that the jumper is too short for your belly and at some point might rise above the skirt...then you should've painted your belly too.... but is was ok).

*Props: I liked that everyone had an umbrella! I thought that gave them the link between the characters since they really didn't interacted with each other in most of the play. I aslo liked that each character had a prop that related a story and that it sometimes represented people (as the TV) or a part of te body (guitar).

*Blue girl: the blue girl was my favourite character, when it was in still picture (for me) it was the one who expressed more her own history, past...just by looking at her you knew what she felt.

*Text: the text whas good. I liked it... I would've presented it differently (not narrated by that girl) but ... i liked the text. (as the invisible mother ..that was great!!)

*Still pictures: my had is removed (me quito el sombrero) for them....they were great on that.

Bad Things:

*music: sucked horse balls. if you are going to put a song then PUT IT! don't cut it in the middle of the action...plus don't keep on repeating the same mistake over and over again.

*main character: I'm sorry, but nah nah my amigous colombianus. I didn't like at all the main character. It was sooooooo anoying. It was like a Bembos animadora. Hated it. (tho..her pronunciation was gooood goood! )

*Black guys singing: ...i though that killed the play because the still picture (in that ...context) should be mute ... because everyone were mute. BUT NOoo... he decided to sing. so i was expecting that at least each character spoke once ...but they didn't.

how i would've presented the play:

without the girl speaking...maybe ...each character speaking. Or ..... if the character spoke... then not as "animadora" as it sounded...it gave no seriousness to the play.

NOW! I wonder...if i didn't like the girl for beeing such as ..."animadora de Bembos" then ... if we do the same for our play..then it wouldn't be taken seriously..BUT THEN! how serious would we want to make our play? (and what techniques do we want to use? BUT IF IT IS NOT SERIOUS!? would they ever take our message as serious? or ...... OH SNAPPLE! this is way too confusing.

I'm like a Bird - Nelly furtado

actually ... I'm trying to be like a bird. When i wrote Nighthawk i really wasn't thinking on my character i just thought "NIGHTHAWK" sounded very cool for a -nature-superhero. SO, the first thing that comes to my mind is obviosly is G-Force (Gatchaman) here some images:

and some videos:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=csXAvcQwxq8&feature=related

And so, that was my base for Nighthawk. For the personality i thought first of a goofy character. The superhero that seems to be brave but he is not. (like, King Julian Madagascar) and but then i thought that will be sort of FLASHish. so ...then i said..ok so, i've done Astolfo (douchebag machoman), Flash (goofy, nerdi ratman) and.... why not make nighthawk sort of mistical. SO, i tought of raven (teen titans) ... some pictures and videos (DO LOOK THEM PLEASE!!! SO YOU CAN KEEP TRACK OF MY CHARACTER BUILDING (and compare the process with my end result)):

so...that's what i'm working on... I hope that somehow this stuff will help with nighty.

NOW! on the rehearsals, we've been doing scenes with our minies (carlos) wich have to act the same as we do...and its very helpful when starting to build a character. It is helping me a lot. we chritique each other, not only with mini-nighty but also with sparkies and arrows. I like this exercise.

I wonder, is carlo's thinking the same as I do...or it is just doing what i'm telling him to do? and is this mini work good because i can see my same exact character ..actually LOOKING at it..or its because i'm building another character that i like and adapting it to my own?

Memories - David Guetta ft. Kid Cudi

Production IB II year: Play Write

So, this year as i said i was encharged of writing the play. So, in order to decide a plot we had the idea that "any problem you have, you can solve it as human" so...to write a concrete plot we did a brain storm and we came up with words such as: independence, responsbility, profile points, human, self determination, goals, aunteticity. SOOO our plot is: A girl name sophie wants to save the planet and she thinks she can only do this with the help of an extraordinary power such as a superhero’s or a villain’s power. Nevertheless, as the play advance and the superheroes and the villain come to earth they only bring chaos and destruction. In the end, she realizes that she has the power to save the world as a human.

So, when im writing the play with Maurice (Ib nextel) so, we stayed after class one friday and we decided more or less who was going to write what and shared ideas. SO, he was writing the villains parts (..since he is a villain) and I'll write the rest of the play. Act 1 was very easy to write, some scenes were written by felipe and it was a pleasent thing to do. Our ideas were solid, and so it was finished quickly. NEVERTHELESS, act II , ...that B*tch. I'm still struggling with. I really don't know how to make the play end ...with a good ending... its complicated. so the first time i wrote act II was DOG POOP. ... and now i'm writing the second draft and hopefuly this time it will be a good draft...or at least a decent one.

Let's see how does DOWN TO EARTH ends.... June baby!

Telephone- Lady Gaga ft. Beyonce.

Saturday 13th March.

So today we went to watch four puppet shows and only one word can describe my feelings towards it. BORING. jeje.... out of the four only 1 could be .. decent, (in a paralel world were digimons rule over humans... but yeah...decent).

As the puppet show was aimed at children it was a very interesting "PLAY" to watch and see how the children reacted to it so we could learn stuff for our play. My observations:

1) The audience's seats were divided into two sections, at the back (chairs) for parents and in front puffs and a carpet for children. Before starting girls walked around the children talking with them making them comfortable and all as creating the bonb needed for a play to start.

2) Laughter is the main purpose of a childrens play I think. Well, children laugh about anything but mostly of the bad things that happened. SO, CALAMITY AND BAD LUCK (golpes, caidas, planes frustrados) = laughs= attention of audience. gotit.

3)As my seat was in between the children I could feel how the felt. First i notice that watching at the same thing opened conversation between them. (proving that theatre has a social purpose) as well as i noticed that if someone says something the next kid will do the same. so, if one laughed everybody else did.

4) Effects, i liked the visual effects like for example the smoke as well as when the fox jumped the actual puppeteer also jumped making the floor tremble (good).

5) You could clearly see the difference between a show for kids and one for adults (1st and second) the jokes, tone everything was different.

6)Interaction with audience. the children could scream shout laugh and the puppets will have to react with the childrens reaction! so improvisation was needed.

7) It was funny how the first show had barely no dialague but was the most attention catcher, while the third one had no voice but it was boring as hell.why was this? would it be different if the third play was first instead?

NOW, the show became borinng and boring each minute that passed, so i wonder was it because of attention spam? or ... was it because of the play. I'm sure if a kid could stay focus 30 mins per chapter on a tv series it could stay for a play....right? I wonder, how can we make a children prefer to watch our super heroes play instead of tv? will costume, scenery and props make it more appealing for children than actors intention? do they reaaly understand plays (because dthey don't understand eglish) or are they the prob look the play as pictures? AND A VERY IMPORTANT IDEA THAT WE MUST KEEP IN MIND: "CHILDREN MIGHT BE YOUNG, BUT THEY ARE NOT STUPID".

Fireflies - Owl City

Today we presented a very short scene during assembly period. It was a serious thing and it required a lot of concentration..... BUT the public laughed. Before the thing i was not nervous, during and after not at all (it was the first time in front of people and not nervous... funny huh?) but i was angry. What went wrong? they laugh. maybe because they were children that laugh. so that mean that we need to make the same thing in the School play in order to capture the attention of children? laughter is the key? well my sister got the idea that we were shadows of rosaura or something like that so I know that she was fully concentrated on watching us perform. ... i think overall the white costumes were good against vale so. good.

Is the intention of the play lost because of the audience laughing? how much do you keep to yourself when your suppose to make them reflect and they laugh (i mean ...you want to stop so you do less obvious the thing that you are doing so they don't laugh?) ...matame.

Hello Goodbye - The Beatles

Hello Hello AMIGOUS!

I’m kinda sad because this entry, as the title suggest is my “last First Hello” of the year, thus it is considered as a Hello Goodbye right? Anyway! Today (wed 3^rd march) was my first IB year two theatre class and it was something that I missed … a lot. The sad thing is (as you can notice to you right) Sandra, Claudia and Meli are no longer Fieles… they are always gonna be in our hearts as Sexylia Gonshalesh and I’m sure they’ll come to watch our play en June. (btw… e los oblige a venir, sino ya vayan ahorrando para la pizza de diciembre, asi de simple) However we have five more smart people that chose Ib theatre and they are form fivers, but for the sake of peace we are not going to call them our CHULIS…but the “NEXTel” people (since they are going to be the next people to suffer) and they are Carlos, Ari, Mauricio, Spetz and LD, they are also going to be doing production and acting in our play…. Ah! (I’m stanDARK level this year, I hope I’ll do good in the end)speaking about the devil, THE PLAY.

During the holidays (even this sounds the fakest thing ever) we got together and we decided more or less what the play is going to be about but we were not sure if Rupert would like it or not… and … dun dun dun… HE DID. ..(fiuf) .. and we are glad. Yeah, so, then we decided our production tasks! I AM NOT DOING SCENERY (at first I was shocked to, but know I’m happy since I wont be stressed about anything production later ((I mean… not as much as it would be if I was encharge of scenery, I know its team work and you have my support!)) and now… IM WRITING THE PLAY. FML? ….(if you don’t know what fml is you should enter to: www.fmylife.com , its my drug) but its fun and I like it.
