Time for an update
I am still here, heh. Albeit rather sparingly ^_^;

I've been incredibly busy of late, and the only reason I'm actually on right now is becaue Dad's not using this PC at the moment. I'm sure he will before too long, so I'll have to be relatively quick.

What have I been up to? Um... Monday I stayed home from college because I wanted my throat infection to disappear in time for my voice assessment on Wednesday. Tuesday I did very little, but went to Portsmouth with Jeremy, Lawrence and Steve and then went to see Miss Saigon in Southampton with Lawrence.

Miss Saigon Jam
It took over an hour and a half to get to Southampton on Tusday evening- it's not usually that long a journey, about 45 minutes or so. But there was a football game going on between the two biggest local teams that only happens once in a blue moon, so thousands of people were going to see that, and there was a car crash. As I was looking out of the window on the coach, I saw virtually no-one on the road going the other way. "Ooh," I thought, "Should be quicker getting back home, then."

Haha. It took about the same amount of time- the football match finished at the same time the play did, which meant all of the traffic that caused build-ups on the way in was now heading out. I got back home at twenty past midnight, which was why I didn't get to do much online.

Miss Saigon itself was good, although not brilliant. The storyline's decent, as is the general look of the play itself. I love seeing big-budget productions, hehe. But I didn't like the songs too much. The tunes weren't hugely memorable, and neither were the voices (I hadn't heard of any of the actors, although one looked exactly like Lawrence). We hired binoculars for the second act (they're in a little holder on the back of the chair in front of you. You insert 50p and it comes undone, freeing them for use) and had a fair amount of fun watching the followspot operators while the long, rather boring songs were going on. It was a good night out, but I wouldn't have been too upset if I'd gone without.

Smith and Western
The first major social event of the Intensive Acting course was long-overdue, but happened yesterday- it was Tim's birthday party and we all went for a meal at this Wild West themed restaurant next to the Chichester train station. It's a fantastic place, a lot like T.G.I. Friday's but with a more specific theme. I had a great time getting to know everyone, and didn't get drunk at all. I had one alcoholic drink called a Black Jack, which was a cocktail comprised of Jack Daniels, Creme de la Cocoa, soft vanilla ice cream and chocolate sauce. Really really nice ^_^

After that (and a combined bill of £391, urk) we went to a pub called The Hole in the Wall- nowhere near as nice as S&W. I chatted to more people and tried not to breathe in the smoke too much.

After that I stayed the night at Lawrence's house. We talked for hours about things ranging from whether we thought anyone on the course was going to drop out to nuclear postmen and eventually got to sleep at about 2.

The next morning we woke up at about 10:30am, something I never thought I'd be able to accomplish. We mostly played the Max Payne 2 and watched a production of Bouncers that he was in last year. That was fun too, although I was starting to pine for OB a bit- I'm drastically behind with everything and I had Yu-Gi-Oh cards to send off to various people on eBay. I came home to find the first volume of the Outlaw Star soundtrack waiting for me in my chair ^______^ I love it to pieces. Fantastic music, and definately what I need after a very tiring few days. The second volume's currently on Backorder at the moment, though. I hope they'll be able to get it in for me.

Back to my writing, I think. Seeing as I can't actually submit anything to OB tonight I'll type everything I need to do into a Word document and copy it tomorrow morning. That way I can listen to OS at the same time ^_^

Take care, everyone.
