Oh, what was that Olivia? Doctor Who is... scary? And he'll haunt you in your dreams forever? It'd be a shame if someone were to... fuel this nightmaric fire...
(Always bring a banana to a party, Rose.)
Anyway.
I forgot what I was gonna say. It was something really important. Shshshshs... Oh yeah! MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Nope, that wasn't it. Teehee. But I seriously had a reason for writing this. Oh well, who cares.
So I went to my grandfathers birthday party the other day. My little cousin tried to put on a play with my other cousin that I never knew existed. (Should I be suspicious?) But she got stage fright. So instead of telling the ten or so people gathered to watch this play about friendship, they decided to hide in the garden. I went out to find them. "OH, GRACIE, WE'RE SO STAGE FRIGHT, WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO?!?!" she wailed tearlessly. I was really tired, and beyond patience at that point. 'Tell them the show's cancelled." said the Grace bluntly. "OH BUT WE CAN'T DO THAT!" they said, looking stricken. I roll my eyes. "Fine, I will." and I did. Anyway, that night, she came over with her little brother (Who put on a little sideshow about what tricks his alligator toy could do while we were waiting for the girls). I told her we were going to work on her dramatic skills. first, I taught her a jazz square. Then, a song. Then she asked me to teach her to get rid of stage fright. This was more of a challenge. I had her perform a monologue as Linus Van Pelt for the family over pizza that night. She still has a little bit of reading trouble, so she stammered a bit, but other than that, it was lovely. I'm so proud. *sob*
Oh yeah, more nightmare fuel...
