I know this is late, but I only found out a few days ago and haven't had much computer time-
R.I.P. Jasmine You
I found out a few days ago that on August 9, Versailles bassist Jasmine You passed away...
I was in shock when I read the news, I still am in shock...I cannot believe he is gone... I didn't think I would cry, but I burst into tears when I found out. It was just so sudden and such a shock...he was an amazing musician and a beautiful person. The band will never be the same without you, Jasmine.
We'll always remember you.
♥ Rest in Peace ♥
To lighten this entry, a quick meme from lustidyllic that I've adapted to high-school under the cut.
Tell us what your chosen major is, and then tell us what we really need to know about life in that chosen major. - or in my case, high school subjects.
Drama
- You will have no life during, and leading up to, production week. No exceptions. It is not possible to have a life during the final stages of a production, because said production will become life.
- 'But I do drama...!' is the foundation excuse used by all drama kids to get out of doing everything and getting extensions on everything. Even the toughest teachers will back down if you tell them about your five or six rehearsals this week.
- The likely reason for the above is that everyone fears the wrath of Mr. Roger Masters. Being shouted at, belittled and sweared at by a teacher will become a common occurance, and everyone gets used to it because that's just what Roger is like.
-You do not argue with Roger. You do not contradict Roger. You do everything Roger says, whenever he says it, with no 'but's. Or else Roger will eat you.
-You'll constantly be singing the production songs, whether you are a good singer or not (in my case, not). Even if you don't realise it, you will be. If you're not singing, you'll be reciting the warm-up phrases, which I won't even go into right now.
-When there is food, you have permission to dive, tackle, punch, bite, kick, scratch etc. to get to the food. You can tell when there is food, because everyone screams and yells 'OMG FOOD', and the people who don't know what's going on will be like 'Huh? Food? Is there food?'
-Nobody really believes that you are sick, least of all Roger. Even if you're dying of swine flu, you're still expected to come to rehearsal.
-Performance week, while exhausting, will be the best week of the term. The Odeon will become your home and the dressing room will become your bedroom.
-You will become family with the cast members, and you will cry your eyes out at the end of a production.
