School is OUT. Now it's time to work HARDER!

Hello World!

Okay so school is OUT! I’m so happy that I’m officially done high school, but I must say, I had an amazing journey though out these past four years. I am who I am today because of the lessons that I’ve learned in high school, but don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t relive it, TRUST ME.

All in all my exams went well, but if you were following me on Twitter and Facebook, you would know that I suffered through them. My drama exam was a killer, I went mentally insane for a couple of days due to the work load, but the hard work paid off. I got all my work done and handed in on time, and my monologue about Brandy went extremely well!

Out of my four years of high school, and my four plus years of being involved in theatre productions, I honestly felt like that was my best performance to date, I laid my heart on the stage and left it there. It was an amazing feeling to challenge myself, and I enjoyed every moment of being on stage. So in case your wondering, my monologue basically talked about the point in Brandy’s life where she was under immense pressure to stay on the top on the charts, and to boost her ratings for her TV show Moesha, in a result to all the pressure, Brandy had an emotional break down and was rushed to the hospital. So my monologue revolved around the moments before she had her break down in her dressing room.

Any how, I’m glad I finished high school successfully, and my next stop is PROM! I’m super excited, I have my fashion loving sister Kishona helping me every step of the way so I can look fierce for my prom.

WTF?

Hello World!

So you’re probably wondering “Hmm. Why the hell is Keren in a garbage bag?”

Well fellow readers that is not a garbage bag! That WAS my future prom dress, of course with a few alterations and what not, and I was willing to pay $350 for it. Well thank God I showed the dress to my sister, and she quickly took me shopping. Oh and I found an amazing dress for a good price, I absolutely love it! I got lucky, because I waited so long to get my prom dress; luckily I have an amazing sister who cares a lot about me to not let me look like a rag-a-muffin at prom.

So the moral of the story? Don’t leave thing to the last minute! Really!

Look a like

Hello World!

So as the year comes to an end all the students in the Acting Academy are preparing for many sleepless nights when it comes to the exam. Oh and the exam is a killer, but for the very few that plan their time wisely, they will get a good nights sleep.

Part of the exam is to perform a monologue from an artist who had a tragic life, or a tragic moment in their life, sounds easy? Well no, because you have to resemble the person and pick up their nuances (movements) to the “tee” with in 2 weeks, and our teacher is expecting greatness! So everyone has to be amazing!

Although many people gave me good ideas for my monologue, it evidently came down to two main people, a young Oprah Winfrey or Brandy Norwood. In the end I decided to do Brandy because I looked similar to her, and I liked her story, picking up her nuances won’t be hard, but her monologue will be a challenge.

Overall I’m happy with my pick, and I’m excited to begin writing my monologue on her!

RIOT!

Hello World,
So this week in English class we were reading a really good play entitled Riot, and it really grabbed my attention for many reasons. One, the play was written by Canadian actor and director Andrew Moodie, and two the play is based in Toronto, the play received amazing reviews when it first opened in 1992. Riot is about the riots that took place in Toronto after the Rodney King beating, the play is powerful and challenges the reader to feel and understand what it’s like to be black in that era, and also see the LA and Toronto riots from a different point of view.

Any how, I really enjoyed reading the play, and I wish I could see the play live, but I will try and Youtube it!

World Cup

Hello World,

Soo, the world cup has started! I’m so excited, even though Trinidad didn’t make it! I don’t have a team to root for yet, but I think I’m leaning towards Germany or Korea! YAYY!

For some reason these types of things excite me! (I’m weird like that)
