This year I'm one of the presidents of MuAlphaTheta with my friendy Robin. Yes, I know. I typed friendy. It's to put emphasis on how cute she is. No, I'm not attracted to her or anything. She just behaves like a really cute person sometimes. :x Or something.
Anywho. Gave the meeting. Robin did a really good job. I hadn't really reviewed the things I was supposed to talk about so I had to refer to my notes a lot. Which shouldn't be. The turn out was 50 kids, lined up to the door and packed like sardines. Good turn-out. Last year there were 60, though. But so I went over everything and I wasn't really getting a good vibe from them. I don't think I was effectively communicating, which is important if I want to get them charged up and ready to participate this year. We have so many things to do this year as a club. So I think I should either improve on projecting my voice more or buy a megaphone. Though it would be cool to speak through a megaphone, I think I'll just project my voice for the time being. So then afterwards Mr. Vincent offered to give me a ride home since I'm a poor sap without a car. I could have taken the bus but by the time I got on there the Freshmen and Sophomores took my seat and all adjoining seats. So I just left and asked Mr. Vincent if he'd take me. So then he went to run off some papers and I went to the auditorium because they were having auditions for some sort of play. I found out that it is called The Diviner. I listened to the plot and it didn't sound very exciting. Far from it. It had swearing in it, though. I really don't like to swear. Besides, God discourages it. It's in Matthew someehere, I should look it up. So then I found a group of people that I know from class and just sat with them. One of them was a girl I'd gone to Elementary school with and am quite familiar with. She was training her little brother on it. So then I was just reading over the part they were practising. You had to speak in a southern accent and say all sorts of slang and twisted English. Slurvian is what I've heard it called in the past. I'm an Englishman and I have somewhat of an English accent left and I thought that I would find it quite difficult to speak in the accent. But I raised my hand because Mr. Vincent was probably done copying papers and waiting for me and I wanted to go earlier. So I got up and took the script to ask her which part she'd want me to audition for. I asked her to choose because I really wasn't bothered by it either way. I was terribley nervous inside and thought I was going to bomb anyway. So I got up on stage and I was staring at the paper as I read. I put quite a bit of feeling and emotion into it and made the accent sound the way the people on the bus might speak it. And when I was finished I was surprised that she was impressed by it. She said she loved my voice and she asked me to do it again only in a different role. The role of the preacher. So I did that and I didn't do it as well as the second part. For some reason, if I'm over-prideful, I don't do as well as if I didn't have confidence in myself to do it. I suppose that's the way my mind operates. It's been an exciting day but I'd really like to buckle down and study for my Economics and Calculus tests tomorrow. I pray that I'll stay above a C on my Calculus test. It's because I'm not doing very well in Calc. As I've explained in a previous Blog entry, I skipped the Trig/Analyt prerequisite course and have to teach it to myself. So we'll just see. 75% of any test, I've found, is preparation. So if I prepare myself tonight and the morning of the test, I'll do fine. Thanks for reading this far into my blog. Hey. God bless you for caring so much. I'll just leave this as a secret message to those that have actually read it. So tomorrow I hope to do well on those tests and get this Nintel CMS done. I'm designing the content management system for a site called [url=http://www.nintel.com/]Nintendo Intelligence Agency[/url]. They used to be CubeSpot.com, which used to own the GameCube.com domain name before Nintendo bought them out. Well, they sent me a free GameCube as payment, which I should post pictures of, and I need to get it done for them. I think I shall do what 'justbreathe' did and post some scriptures in my blogs from now on. It would certainly help myself and others to stay in God's word every day. Because when he sees us studying his word, it gives him such a delight. People often forget that God has emotion. Stronger than those of mere humans, you couldn't begin to imagine. And I'd rather bring my Heavenly Father, Lord, and Saviour much joy, as I am his loyal servant and child.
