Hello, I’m Sally and this is quite clearly a blog. So, I’m going to start writing one! Mainly to fuel my constant need to express everything I do in a dramatic manner combined with gorgeous language and fluidity. I like English lots. This is why I feel I need to do this. Obviously when I get going, I find it incredibly hard to stop so expect huge great long blog post filled with ponderings and ramblings. Okay, here we go. First and foremost, I am an actor. I can’t describe my love for acting! It’s just ridiculous how much I adore it. I don’t even know; it’s just that thrill and intensity of getting into character and adapting them due to the script and your own personal acting style. Oh god, listen to me! I don’t even know. It’s just brill! I am seventeen, in Year Twelve and currently studying English Literature, Drama and Theatre Studies, Philosophy and French. Yes, I do have to write about a thousand essays but once I get into them and stop procrastinating (which is what I’m doing now) then I really enjoy them. I think I just like writing.
Today I decided to watch Glee on Channel Four and remembered just how much I loved it. I’d been reading my “100% gleek” book that my dearest mother bought me for my birthday (we’re just so cool) and I’d been addictively listening to all the soundtracks so me being me, thought it was destiny that it was on at that precise moment! Oh, I like Buddhist principles as well. Not that that is particularly relevant, it’s just that saying destiny reminded me of karma. Sorry, I digress; so yes, Glee. I watched it and just realised how clever it is! Many, many intellectuals and normal people would disagree with me there but quite frankly, if you try to compare it with High School Musical or say something like “they’re the same!” then you are an ignorant fool. Glee is satirical, has a few real issues involved, offers a chance for sooo many talented young people who haven’t really been noticed before and is just great. The songs aren’t crappy “written for the screen” songs, they’re real songs by real artists purely adapted to fit the episode. Okay, okay it’s not exactly Pride and Prejudice or Chocolat or Hamlet or whatever (which I also adore!); it is very happy clappy but surely we all need a bit of that! Anyway, that’s not what I’m trying to portray. I just don’t want people getting completely the wrong idea. I will probably remember about a thousand other points I wanted to make but I can’t remember it now so bollocks to that. I have just read this back and realised I have a humungous tendency to exaggerate. Oh well! Yeah, so I hope whoever reads this will like it. It’s not really anything but :).
