I'm doing it the other way around : I just finished my essay-exam, so now I'm going to watch I am legend, before starting to study for my next exam

Oh and congrats on post no. 3500!!! Party!

So tell us about the production you're in (was this the one that had such a hard try-out?)

Ah, glad to see you. How's the toe?

No, this is another one. If I actually get a picture, sometime before Easter, I might put it somewhere.

The production was in a union theatre, which meant crazy move in and out, and no time in the space. But it went well, more or less. I love the producers, etc., but didn't have much in common with the folk in my dressingroom, which is kind of no fun. Met some great new ones, though. Good houses, nice support staff, many of whom I knew. Good show.

*comes running in* Everyone! TAKE COVER!!! *trips over a chair and falls while turning in slow motion* [slow motion voice]NOOOO![/slow motion voice]
*stares in horror when Aeran comes dashing in* No down boy! Bad kitty!!!
*stands up and tries to run again, this time falling over a table knocking tea all over the floor* Sorry 'bout that! *gets hit full force by Aeran who starts licking her face* GET DOWN I SAID! Yugh! I hate it when he does that!
*pushes Aeran off, puts the table and chair back sets down a new cup of tea in front of the ladies and leaves again with Aeran on her tail*

Humph. Camomile. Is that yours, Rian?

Nah, Camomile is one of the few teas that I dislike. I"m having some hot chai tea now

Toe's doing great - foot is slowly starting to do better finally, although I still haven't heard back from the dr. about the MRI. Basically, I'm just taking staying off the foot more seriously.

The show sounds fun - that would be fun to see you! *wistful look*

Today I was making videos of myself singing, trying to work on some problems I have (namely jaw tension)... which is why I was looking all over the place and messing up the lyrics.

If anyone is interested in hearing my voice, this is a little clip. I was just singing random stuff, and this particular bit is a snippet from Penelope's Song by Loreena McKennitt.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZqQ1EHniQmo

Yes there are a lot of problems with the sound, but I'm actually relatively pleased. I can see improvement from the videos I was making earlier in the semester as far as jaw tension goes. I've also got more resonance, although my sound is a little 'off' in this video since I was just focusing on keeping my jaw relaxed rather than worrying about how I sounded.


But honestly all in all, this is a pretty fair estimate of how my voice sounds in general.

I'm off for my exam... gotta translate Japanese to "grammatically correct Dutch sentences", which is impossible with the depth of the Japanese language compared to Dutch and I have to translate for 3 hours!
Wish me luck! I'll have a sandwich before leaving, because otherwise you'll hear my stomach during the exam
Waiter! Oh wait, this here is selfservice...

I'm sorry I can't hear it. I waved at your picture, though.

Sorry! He is being punished for knocking me over again so he's skulking (sulking?)
Anyway, I'll tell him to knock it off.

NAUTIPUS!!! *jumps at Nauti and effectively knocks the air out of him* You're here!!! Enjoying your vacation?
Edit: Alas, my eyes deceived me.

PPS: What happened to the rule-thread anyway? You know, the one on top of the General page alongside the pictures and introduction threads?

Rule thread?

I.... don't know what you're talking about.

<.<

o.o

I... I think if you'll look, you'll find that we have no rule threads here. Or, you know, you don't have to look, really... it's... it's not that important.
