-0.8 hours to the nightmare.

Actually, for such a busy person, i waste a disgusting amount of time updating my blog and reading other people's blogs. hm. just a thought.

Anyway, tsd today was fun like NOTHING omg it was damn cool. we did our usual 10-20-30-40% etc warmup thing, then he kind of made us work on emotions. like he would give us an emotion to display on our face, and when he said freeze (we were still moving around the room at 90%) we would freeze and show that emotion on our faces. The first emotion was hurt, i found it easy to relate to but was really worried about portraying it as i know my facial work and acting control sucks completely, having had such feedback before (in nicer words, of course). Then he moved on to add body (display the emotion with your face and body) and then voice (face, body and one line to display the emotion). It was super cool. From hurt, we moved to betrayal, by which time i was literally crying. Then excitement, which was fun, we all burst out laughing when he said that - release of tension HAHA =) then moved on to shock, irritation, annoyance and frustration which was REALLY easy to call up haha. next we did anger which i found quite difficult, i couldn't find a moment/imagine a scenario to pin it to. it was supposed to be really ANGER, you see, almost to breaking point. I could only get frustration and upset, but not anger. When Mr Jow pointed to me i couldn't think of a line to say that would come out true although i did manage to fake the face and body language, so i gave him this really desperate please-ask-someone-else-first look and he nodded understandingly and moved on. =) haha Mr Jow's nice. anyway the last emotion he said was "Love". We all burst out laughing/giggling/etc. He remarked it was funny how it was so easy for us to call up hate, anger, frustration, annoyance etc but so difficult for us to portray love. but i really really couldn't find a true Moment, and i'm quite sure he could tell. lol. Taariq's was really funny ("I-i -i really l-like you") and Jagraj's drove us into a bit of a shock until we interpreted it correctly ("I think i'm in love with her, dude!" rather than "I think i'm in love with you, dude!" LOL) Janet's and Shiangnee's were very *shudder*-worthy lolllll but quite nicely done, even if they DID say it in each other's direction *shudder* lol and serena's came out really naturally LOL. ;)

After that we continued moving (90%) then he asked us to find a partner and start a scene about a subject he would give. With different groups each time, we went through making friends, betrayal, shocking news ("Ms **** just slept with the principal!" "NO WAY!"), second chance (OH taariq johnny and shiangnee's group did it DAMN BLOODY NICELY! haha taariq was some guy who had hurt shiangnee or something - "please just let me talk to her" - and johnny kinda did the whole "you can't undo what you've done get away from her" thing, while shiangnee sort of turned away to the corner at your classic "just go away" role. haha i liked the effect desmond's jacket on her gave, somehow. and yes, i realise that wasn't really an intended effect lol.) haha at the end i was doing with serena for "devastating news". So i was like "you come up with the news k" and she was like "okay" and when it was our turn she went, "ohmygosh do you know geri just sprained her ankle before the first match?!" and it was completely easy for me to jaw-drop horror-voice "no WAY, are you serious?! what are we going to do?!" haha and we almost went into a whole team-crisis discussion haha it was quite funny really. thank goodness it's not true =) hahahahaha

okay now i'm so dead i need to sleep. haha. oops. =) sports day in thirteen hours! =(
