. : Procrastinating Southern Belle : .
Hey ya'll, so here's the general news . . . So Churchmice Players are presenting Steel Magnolias and i get to play Annelle, the nervous wreck. The script is really awesome, our director is crazy-intense (which is good) and it is amazingly well cast...I am quite excited. We perform March 24th, 25th, 30th, 31st and April 2nd, 5th, 6th and 7th....or something like that. its gonna be fabulous, simply fabulous. The story takes place in a, we'll say not-so-classy, beauty salon in Chinquapin, Louisiana so we all have to talk in southern accents. So far the accents have been...well interesting to say the least. My family is definately getting annoyed of mine because i speak like a southern belle non stop. I find it rather amusing, to be quite honest. All this talk about accents even got me thinking in a southern accent.
Where do accents come from, like why do people in certain places, that speak the same language, sound so different.....its so strange, i quite like it though. It would be rather boring if everyone sounded like freaking americans / canucks...but then i wouldn't know the difference because i wouldn't have heard the other accents if they were inexistent, i suppose. Someday it will probably be that way. because of all the mass media streaming out of the U.S. more people around the world hear americans so often, I have even noticed areas in Britain that were once famous for their accents have definately toned down. I bet the french will never give up their's its to hard to do...try it! its hard.
I just remembered i have to wake up and go to school tomorrow....crud. I am really dreading this week..it will take at least a week and a half for my brain to wake up and function properly, the holidays were just too long...its seems like its been like a month since i have been in school but i don't want to go back. I planned on getting all my extra work that piled up, basically the stuff i didnt hand in, i planned on finishing it over the holidays, YA RIGHT! i've discovered my largest weakness, i procrastinate like crazy. However, i am very sleepy and i think soon my brain will literally shut down if it does not get sleep. goodnight. Liz out.
