duh...! cool huh...

phewww..!!!
I never thought that this would be a very boring play. It actually drives me to sleep but you know...whatever happens, i just need to finish up watching it. It was absolutely different from The Reduced Shakespeare Company. What i had expected is that it would be as interesting as the latter play. Howver, it did happened conversely. I don't know...maybe others have different view from me but to be frank, i dislike this play. And up to this very minute, i am very sure that will not spent my time to watch it again. I do have a feeling that this movie was actually made for those whom are really fond with any work which relates to Shakespeare. After viewing both play, i managed to draw my own conclusion. To me, if ever i watched this movie before 'The Reduced Shakespeare Company', I might not watch any of Shakespeare or other people work about Shakspeare ever again. Luckily, i got to watch the hillarious work of The Reduced Shakespeare Company on the first hand. It relly is amazing on how other people works can set or change your perspective about a certain thing. In this case, the Shakespeare work itself of course.Well, I do not said that this movie is a total crap(guys!!!don't get me wrong okay...). It is just that i am not into this movie because it is not ineresting enough to grab my attention. That's all. All in all, they done a good work because doing a joint venture work with two different culture and country is not an easy thing i guess... I'd give them a round of applause for their commitment and initiative in completing their tidious task ( they enjoyed it anyway...). =)

this is real cool..!!!

Dear journal…I’d like to share with you something that really had amused me…it was awesome!!!! Brilliant!!! I’d never thought that Shakespearean play would be as enjoyable as this!!! But of course this is not the classic play…hm…it is something new…It is sort of a modern Shakesperean play actually. At the beginning of the play, I can’t in point of fact understand what it was all about. The actors’ speech was in light speed. I was like listening to the sound of a bullet train. But not long after that, I began to adjust myself and able to enjoy the play. The trio was indeed very creative. They are some sort of genius!!! With limited props, they managed to carry out different characters form various plays such as the Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet, Othello, Ophelia, Titus and Andromieus, A Midsummer’s Night Dream and several others. Not only was I amazed with their performances, I do feel as if I was one of the audiences at that theatre. The trio actually get the audience to involve in their live performances. A girl was invited to play the role of Ophelia whom is dealing with conflicts and confusion. She need to scream and in order to help her to get into the mood, the trio instructed the rest of the audiences to be the ‘voice’ that will raise her mood. As the result, the girl screams all her heart out and she had really done it very well. It was actually like a mini acting workshop where you learn the skill in acting. Apart of that, the play became more interesting because the trio had conveyed it in various ways. While presenting the ‘Othello’, they actually sang a rap verse. It really was very appealing. In addition, the puppet show is also excellent. All in all, I really enjoy myself during this show. To me, they are actually presenting their very own interpretation of Shakespearean’s play. All in all, their performance was actually a masterpiece by itself. I’m looking forward to watch more of their shows in future.

the myth of Tiresias...

After reading Antigone, I found an interesting character whom is Tiresias. He was the one whom had managed to make Creon rethinks of his decision. I made a further reading upon Tiresias and I am really surprised that he eventually had been a woman. The story begins when Tiresias, the son of a nymph an a human father, lives as a shaman in ancient Greece. According to the legend, he was changed into a woman when he killed a male snake in a wood. After seven years being a female tiresias, he was then turn back to normal after came upon two serpents mating and killed the female snake in the same wood. Years later, the gods of Mount Olympus had an argument as who had the greater pleasure in making love. Tiresias was called to give his opinion as he was the only one whom had experienced being in both gender. He told them that nine upon ten the pleasures of love must be given to the woman and soon after that, the peace returned to Olympus again. As a reward, he was given his shamanic powers. This is really superb isn't it? How on earth one could think to be living in both gender? It is reaaly out of logic but...anyway, that is what we called a legend. I'm actually wondering, is it a curse or a give in being a woman? Why should he turned to be a woman after making a sin? And why should he get his normal body after making the same deed again? Hm... Is it bad being a woman that she ( it's confusing dealing with this ha and she terms you know...) need to commit another killing? Is that what we perceive as 'the act of neutralizing our past sins'? Aaarghh...there is a lot to think...

no big deal...

6th February...my first drama test. I do not know what to say about it. See, it is quite disapppointing when things just get harder even when we tried all out to make it the better. I read what I supposed to but in the end...I can't recall some of it. I know that I can't remember everything that I read but hey..what good will you get when the exam questions need a very precise and direct answer from what is written in the book. There...the key to score a full make in a MCQ test is memorizing. Am i right? Sure...there is no use when you understand the whole story but fail to recall a simple detail such as a characters or any terms. And you are unfortunate enough that that was the question asked in the exams. Hahahaha....But, I am very positive you know. I will surely not write a 'Suicide Note' to my mother because of making careless mistake and not scoring in this test. There is always a light at the end of the tunnel. Try again... An 'A' is only an 'A'. ( a way of motivating myself...I am very good at this...especially after stepping out of the exam's hall... =p )..............
