WOW!

Liz:
It seems like I'm the only one around here who has something to say, or rather, am bigoted enough to actually want to write everything down.
Anyhoo, tonight we went to the arts house to watch 'Comedy of Errors' (The last time I went to the arts house, it was to perform! sigh!) I love the smell of the arts house! While the show was totally spastic with typical slapstick antics, I thought it was really cool! It was typical shakespearean comedy which lends its humour to mixing up of identities and LOTS of dramatic irony which I must say, leaves the audience(or me) abit confused at times. somehow, it reminded me alot of twelfth night, but overall, the plot was totally frivolous, totally drunken, and a total much ado about nothing. But of course I've come to believe that the beauty of Shakespeare lies in his language and... well in not much else. although the Language makes up for that everything else.
having said that, it didnt start on a good note for me as I was totally lost in the first scene itself! I guess one part of it was the fact that the character slurred her words alot and the other was that these coarse ears of mine have become untuned to the key of Shakespeare. But it got along better as my ears were tuning themselves. Acting wise, I thought it was really good! I would say the girls were better than the guys but the play was made for the girls to but holding up the whole show anyway. I think this play was totally gaming on the fact that the girls were played by young boys at that time. Cuz if you think about it in that sense, the play becomes so much more funnier as the audience, being able to distinguish the onstage character and the knowledge of the true actors sex... well, you get what I mean. But these girls tonight were so full of energy, although at times i felt it lacking in rawness in some scenes.The only guy character I liked was Dr. Pinch, but considering there were only 3 guys, theres not much to speak of then. I loved the slave-twins though they were totally cute! And I liked that could really feel the chracters tension/love/hapiness and we actually went... awww im honestly happy for them at the end of the show. The power of shakespeare, or energy kept well?
Met Ning after the show! yay Ning!
My parents are watching korean drama dvds....(reminds me of: 'they're playing croquet', lol) and the moon is full, big and bright I had an altogether nice evening out, and an altogether nice day. except for the part where i got pissed with Paul for being late. note to self to keep this temper in check.Tmrw we might go out and celebrate daddy's birthday at spizza, and i really should be getting more work done than I already am, which is not alot. Go Liz, Jiayou!
Yay, Paul comes home safe and sound. Sali's mom fetched her home, so she's safe and sound, and I met colin online which confirmed his homecoming. Everyone's safe home, so I am Happy.
Wan an, shui hao!
