Trying Archery for a first time.

 

Good thing I had my new Zelda hoodie with me, Must have channeled the spirit of Link, didnt miss the target once, and hit the bullseye with one arrow too. Felt like a natural :D

Our school did a production of the show "Annie". Last year, we did Oliver, which wasn't too bad. I said I didn't mind working backstage as I did with Oliver, but the music teacher had other ideas.

 

The whole thing sorta went like this over a period of around 3 months:

 

Her: "Do you mind helping out, again?"

Me: "sure, I don't mind being backstage"

Her: "Ok, good."

 

Then, later on, she came back with another proposal:

 

Her: "Would you mind being an extra in the show? You'd have one or two lines."

Me: "sure...I guess. I can't sing, dance or art, though."

 

Soon after that...

 

Her: "I have this small role in mind for you."

Me: "Ehh...ok."

Her: "You've got about 4 or 5 lines now."

Me: "....ok, but remember, I can't sing, dance or act."

 

Fast forward a bit and things escalated quickly.

 

Her: "You're now Rooster in the show. Here are your scripts *hands me FOUR hefty looking booklets* You'll be singing, dancing and acting. See you every Monday and Thursday from now until the rest of your life. Say goodbye to your lunch breaks."

Me: "..."

 

So, I ended up going from backstage...

 

To this:

Audience of more than 200 people. Parents and staff who I see daily. Lots of cheers and cameras taking photos during every one of my bits.

 

:blank:

 

I also STILL ended up working backstage. In between scenes, I had to rotate the stage and moves props, etc. That backdrop that you see behind me is basically 13ft high. A small group of 5 of us put that up ourselves. Heavy as fuck and took us HOURS. After the play finished, we took it straight down again. Didn't get home til after 1.

 

Must've been more capable than you give yourself credit for. ;) Looks like a very nice production - great photos. :)

I've been toying with the idea of trying out archery. I still doubt I'll ever do anything about it, but the idea has a least stayed around in my head ever so slightly longer than most other temporary fancies I've had in the past.

Shaved my head down short(or my friend did, though I would have otherwise) again for the first time in forever the other day - quite happy with it!

You look like a garden gnome in that first pic. I think it is just the camera angle though, so don't worry. I'm sure you're not that gnomic in real life.
