Method Of Acting

So,here I am again. It's kind of late,but that shouldn't stop anyone from blogging, so why should it stop me?. Things have been kind of busy lately, with school and whatnot. School is going pretty good, I have a jam packed super busy week coming up, between fun things, like the music dept banquet, and not so fun things, like my gigantic supreme court presentation. More on that after it happens, lol. I'm sure I'll have alot to say--Heh,heh.Hm, My concert is also next week, so yeah,things will get a little sweaty. In english, we're reading Hamlet(which is great so far ,btw.), and I'm reading the part of the Queen (not entirely by my choice,haha, but I really don't mind--Apparently I'm a much better reader/"actor" than I think I am.). Sometimes i wonder why people are so afraid to do certain things,like reading aloud in class. Nerves, maybe?. When I'm reading aloud,though,I get a little nervous.Not really about what everyone is thinking about me, but more along the lines of how I want to do a good job and not disappoint anyone. All in all, so far, its been interesting, in a good way.

In a way, though, I guess we are all actors. Day to day we live our lives, some of us pretending, or hiding our true emotions and true selves. Sometimes, though we can relate and find people of who we can see their true selves, and vice versa. Groups of people can put up a front, to hide behind who they really are. Maybe its out of fear, worries of rejection, or maybe in most cases the acceptance of others around us. Some can ask:Why do we want to deny ourselves..ourselves?. Acting , in its many different ways, is among all of us each day. Whether its at work, at school, or with people.Confidence and knowing who you are is something that doesn't come overnight, but rather growing slowly over time. In the end, to simply put it, It's best to be yourself.
