Mrs. Cooper

My teacher for the week (Mrs. Cooper) doesn't like blogs. So this one's for you. :)

It'll be short, since she likes things condensed. Plus I just don't have enough time to devote to this at the moment (even though I have so many things I want to write and say! But there is a time and a place for everything, and that time is not now. Unfortunately for you and I both).

I love my musical theater course - we analyze the script and the musical notes, and how harmonies symbolize certain things. It's such a fascinating new aspect of theater I never sat back and took my time to work through, but man, I wish I had. I really appreciate the amount of work that goes into these shows, even more than I already did (which really was a lot).

Only two more days, but we still have yet to read Blood Brothers, Fantasticks, and Sweeney Todd (super happy about that last one). We're reading Gift of the Magi hopefully too. It's such a great class! We watch YouTube clips of theater performances and I just want to sing and dance along with everyone else! If only I had trained myself to be a theater major... except I know in my heart of hearts that I would not be successful as an actress. I wish I would be, but I know I wouldn't (compared to all of the other wonderful talents, especially in our department). I'm extremely jealous of their beautiful voices and their ability to make each character their own.

More will come from me on either Friday or Saturday... Probably Friday, because I'm so excited to write about some things! I have another short story idea that I discovered in class today. I'm super pumped to flesh it out. :)

Till Friday!
