Spooktacular

Spooktacular was so fun this weekend! A whole bunch of us acting students went over to Fort Steele and dressed up for the haunted house. I was a mummy, at the very end of the line. I got to hang out with the mad scientists (Claire was a good one) in the last room, along with Frankenstein (when he hadn’t escaped) and some tortured victims. There was laughter and tears, all right. I was chopped up with a lightsaber 3 times, told I deserved a raise and given a chocolate coin once, growled back at several times, hugged by strangers, played paddy cake with, and ran away from. It was fun to make people jump. I followed some people a little ways away from the haunted house and got them multiple times. I also scared one of my friends by chasing her way down the road. I wore a couple too many layers, and sure had a sore throat afterwards, but it was worth it, we all had a lot o fun

pine needle love

One of the art classes drew graffiti and had it up all over the walls, so I decided to give it a shot. Claire insisted I wasn’t filling the sections in right, and stole a pipe cleaner gift Ashely gave me so I let her help fill in white spots only she could see. Riz thought my colouring was just find and asked me to make her one afterwards. Caroline watched it all while eating chocolate from Sweet Gestures and drew mouths coming out of ankles, exclaiming that zombies are cute.

All in a day of art.

Today I sang

for the music teacher. He said I had a good ear and a good range. I sang a part of Cannonball, pretty well I believe, since my voice was warmed up from two hours of practising Christmas carols. He also asked me how I was doing, which is always nice to hear, and I’m happy to report all is well. I told him how happy I am to be in choir, but he said he already knew, I always look happy to be there. I’m getting very very excited for footloose, and hoping desperately for a singing part. Please please pleaseeee. In fact, I’m going to finish memorizing my lines for Treasure Island this weekend, to show my seriousness.

Wish me luck 🙂
