I loved the BAFTAs this year and there were loads of moments (bad and good) that made me get up and shout at the telly.

·         Slumdog was a great film BUT it did not deserve the Sound award over Wall-E, the film which comprised 90% of sound effects created by humans. Brad Bird just created these sounds, it's what he does, and he gave a robot a ( Read more... )

Lolz, made myself ill with Com Rev. - ha, had to stop and sit down there to stop world   going round. OK, shortness- Com Rev was awesome. The guys were so lovely, bought me flowers, teddy, chocolate and a lovely card. I was so proud. We had to cut lots for final show but it was awesome. I'm so so proud. Finished dead on time. Everything went right ( Read more... )

Yayz! Am half way through my copy of Skybreaker- the audiobook I was so priviledged to participate this time last year. I wish I could include an example here but I've found no way of embedding music media.
My voice doesn't quite sound like mine (I think it's changed a bit since I started singing lessons after the recording). But I forgot I did ( Read more... )

YAYZ! The fangirl in me reawakened.
Peter Jackson and New Line Cinema have apparently settled their arguments, hugs and kisses all round, and they will be making The Hobbit! Waah!

There's this lovely fanletter pinned to the inside of one of our kitchen cupboards. My Mum gets sent huge batches of her fanmail every two months or so and some of it is...pretty crazy.
For instance, "What's your favorite color? What's your favorite book? Do you believe that Jesus is the Savior of the World? If not, write back to me and I will ( Read more... )

Mira, lived on the corner
She was the daughter of a mother she knew.
Mira, she was a horner,
She'd eat your love and leave the peel of you.
Mira, she was a former
Pupil of the school of truth.
Mira, she was a burning light-
She was the absolute of youth!

Mira, Mira, what have you done?
Mira, Mira, where have you gone?
Mira, Mira, who are you now?
Mira, Mira, ( Read more... )

Was crying away last night because our second night audience (ain't it always the way with second night audiences?) sucked, quite frankly. Apparently, our director went home and did just the same! I couldn't blame him. It just broke my heart to think that such a fantastic play, a play that the actors still find funny after performing fifty times, ( Read more... )

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! First night went so well! I am knackered from all the running around. Oh, Katie, I'm so grateful to you for coming and it was lovely to see a familiar face at the bottom of the stairs.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! I'm running purely on adrenaline. We got lots of laughs and my favourite scene went really well too. Only two major ( Read more... )

I didn't do terribly in my French oral! Way! Crit Think tomorrow but there's no panic for that.
KK, I hate doing this to myself but I've made my predictions for my A-Level results.
Critical Thinking: D/C
Politics: C
English Lit: B
French: A/B
Drama: A/B
And that's being optimistic. I just can't see myself doing fantastically; I would LOVE an A in French ( Read more... )
