"It's great you got something out of this text! I gotta say, I did too and it's an amazing feeling when you have no idea that thing you learnt in Uni could have such an impact on your life. It's great to see that you can take things that we learnt, and possibly use them in your life experience, or to be made as an answer for uncertain ( Read more... )

And so here we are. The end of an era. A very, long, word-filled, keyboard-tapping, Joubert-reading, Thoreau-worshipping era. What can I say? It's been a great experience, I personally loved LiveJournal and it was a great way to express my interest about the texts we read and throw some creativity of my own into the vast mixing pot of the internet ( Read more... )

"Haha, I really liked your play! It was really well done and kept the audiences attention. There was a great use of accents in it, and the big cast made it more interactive and interesting to watch! Seeing as you performed on the first week, I think you guys were one of the best ones in the glass, you certainly got my vote!"

Well, I nearly had a fit today. The panic was slowly injected into my brain and from there it took over my body. It did weird things whilst in control, strange things I wouldn't usually do. It made me breakfast - I never eat breakfast! It made me put on shoes that had laces, it practically made me waltz to Uni, though not nearly as graceful. It ( Read more... )

"This was a great poem! It was very confronting, and played around with a lot of issues that we are forced to deal with in society. I liked it, as it made me think about individuality, it was strong yet it did not overwhelm. Good work!"

I'll start off by saying that today we were given a lecture by the playwright, Professor Sam Bernstein. His lecture was amazing! He had a booming loud voice, with a sharp Boston accent that was unfamiliar to the ear, curving all it's R's and sharpening all it's A's. I liked his lecturing style, it involved pieces of music to keep us on the ball, ( Read more... )

"I have to agree, this was amazing! The rhythmic pattern is forceful, yet creates an easy reading pace. It lets you know that the words are important, where the key words truly take their mark. I loved it!"

This week was a good week. It was the beginning of something that has been a passion in my life for many a year. Since I was around 6 years old I have been involving drama and performance into my life, and it has stuck with me through the years. It was like a friend who has stayed with me as I have slowly grown through the world, and it has shaped ( Read more... )

"I reeeally liked this! I've heard heaps about your trip, but it's pretty great to read a piece of literature on it. The descriptive language you use makes it easy to picture the setting.

You should post more stuff you've written about your experiences in NT, it'll be a breathe of fresh air from everything here in Sydney!"

So, the break has been and gone. I'd like to say that I spent the week writing and studying so much my pen actually etched the words into my desk, but sadly I cannot. I could however tell you an accurate tale of how my pen stayed in the drawer and didn't seem to want to come out. Don't get me wrong, I tried to get him to come out, but he just wasn' ( Read more... )
