Anonymous Kids!

annundrielHad my meeting with Mrs. Lafser yesterday and it went really well. Not that I was expecting anything else really. I showed her all of the notes I had taken on it since last year and what I had highlighted and wanted to keep and what I didn't, all of which she liked. So that's great! Woo. We discussed possible casting decisions, ie. practically have the Bad Comedian cast already. There is only one person we could think of for the part. Must go talk to Ike . . . And then we set up a schedule of how we'd like to have things finished. So, here is my play schedule as of yesterday:
-first draft done by January 6
-play finalized by mid-February
-casting done by March 1
-10 week rehearsal period for performance in May
Wow. I have a schedule. I feel so very accomplished at the moment that it's not even funny. I have my characters set, my plot basically plotted, and the scenes are taking shape. *giggles* I'm a writer!
In other news, Mum, Dad, Tom and I went and saw CoS last night. My third time, Mum's first. We sat apart from the guys because they're just silly. Except they ended up sitting behind us and trying to scare me everytime the spiders appeared. After awhile it ceased being creepy and was just annoying. Before the movie started I ended up discussing HP with two anonymous kids sitting infront of me. Random conversation!! It was fun! And then I talked a little to the tiny little girl who sat next to me. She must've been all of 6 at the oldest I think. Handled the movie very well. She was adorable at the end. "Run Harry! Run! . . . Don't do that!" It was cute.
Once the movie was over, Mum's first comment as the credits began was, "You're right, he does make a good Tom Riddle." Of course I'm right. I'm always right about these things. We also nudged each other everytime Oliver Wood was so much as in the shot. Fun times.
Also, I got my acceptance for the Sullivan Award from SU yesterday. Which means I'm qualified to come compete for the scholarship. They sent me a map to get there, a schedule, and an article to read and study so that I can write an essay on it while I'm there. The day consists of:
8:45am- Registration
9:00- Welcome and Introduction-type-thing
9:30- Family Members depart for elsewhere
9:45-10:45- Reaction Essay to "Nickle-and-Dimed On (not) getting by in America. (journalist lives the low-wage earner life)" by Barbara Ehrenreich
11-11:30- Information Sessions
11:50-12:30- Repeat School Information Sessions
12:45-1:45- Lunch and stuff
1:45-2:45- Campus Tours
3-4:30- Panel and Small Groups Discussions
That's the fun I get to have on December 7. Woo. I hope I can handle it. *crosses fingers* If I get passed this and do well than I could get invited back for a day in February and if I do well there and get accepted than I get the full freshman scholarship. Here's hoping.
