Well, the Betty Blue Eyes presentation wasn't too bad, it felt like I held my own. Now I just need to figure out what I can write a 1300 word paper on. The thing that interested me most was the amount of instruments in the pit and all the interesting ones - there was a violin, cello, clarinet, those normal ones and then there was a mandolin, euphonium (a mini-tuba sort of thing), 3 kinds of horn and an accordian. Not your typical instruments for a pit. Maybe I can do something with that, or maybe something about how the pit was on the stage instead of up front.
When I got back to the room, I decided to let myself have 2 hours to relax and do whatever until I needed to get working on things.
Since I don't get twitter sent to my phone while I'm here, I checked it today to see if there were any interesting ones. I saw one from the Death Star PR department - 'Love is like a Stormtrooper: it usually misses.' I was laughing pretty good at that one :D
Then my time was up and I started getting my thoughts together for my Living and Dying research paper. I have my plan outlined and some cases picked out to reference - I just need to do a bit more research and I can start writing. It's a good thing I don't have anything going on this weekend - I want to write my theatre paper and get most of my research paper written because the next weekend I'll be in Cornwall and then I'm done. The nice thing about having a research paper is that I won't have a final :D I will have one for the theatre class though.
Tonight the student assistants organised a trip to another bar, but I didn't go. I'm hoping to save some money and I have class tomorrow. Instead, I found The Road to El Dorado! I love that movie - it's a rather underrated movie in my opinion. I didn't realise this before, but Elton John, Tim Rice and Hans Zimmer all worked on the music/soundtrack. It's like the Lion King crew just transferred straight over! Maybe that's why I like the songs so much... :D
Well, like I said, I have class tomorrow and I've got a quiz in that class, so I want to try and get more sleep than normal (we'll see how well that works...).
Till then,

PS - thank God for auto draft saves. I went to publish this post and something went wrong, and when I went back it was gone. I was not going to be happy.
But it's all good now! :D
