Dear Blog,
So uhhh… back from the first day of rehearsal. Meeting everyone, having a “read through” of a new, revised script and what-not. Kinda cool. Kinda fun. Kinda nice.
Outside was pouring with rain. I could almost swim in the street. There was enough water anyway to theoretically drown given that apparently, you only need 2cm of water to drown; thus why a friend-of-mine’s grandmother has a fit every time she sees her walk near a puddle.
“No Tarlina!! No!! You will drown!! Stay away from that little puddle!! You want to what???! Swim at the beach??! Have you gone mental!!!! My granddaughter. Oh my dear granddaughter. Lord what have I done to deserve this?”
We did a few scene run throughs where I die and the female lead screams out, whilst trying to protect me from the evil clutches of the evil guy, repetitively, “Nooooo. Noooooo! Nooooooo!! NOOOOOOOO!!” It was rather hilarious to be honest, mostly because I couldn’t remember my lines, and was trying to do my best impersonation of the girl from The Exorcist whilst we were accompanied in the background by some errant tunes of upbeat folk music. I had to stifle laughter while pretending I was dying… say what?
So check it out. Am I like… nay actor or what! At least my goal of having a spectacular onscreen death will be fulfilled at long last… unless you count my previous adventures as Sars Boy.
