Armin Wiebe's The Moonlight Sonata of Beethoven Blatz

I love watching theatre plays and so I was excited when I found out that I'd be watching one for school. Last weekend I headed over to the Rachel Browne Theatre on Bannatyne Street to watch Armin Wiebe's The Moonlight Sonata of Beethoven Blatz.

When I first heard of it I didn't really know what to expect of the play. I was torn between thinking if it would be a boring classical play about Beethoven, or if it was going to be a play about Beethoven with a twist of humour. Thankfully, it was humourous and wasn't actually about Beethoven himself.

When I first entered the theatre, I found myself looking for a seat amidst the sea of a white haired audience. I found myself a good seat right in the top centre of the audience. And that was when I got a good look of the set. The set was really simple and even looked cartoonish to me, which I liked. I liked how they attached curtains inside the house to make walls if they needed to.

They play was set in the Prairies during the 1930s. They had very different accents which I had a hard time understanding at first, but eventually got used to it by the first ten minutes or so. That was also the first time that I heard of any accent native to the Prairies. But according to the little pamphlet that I got from the play, the accent is supposed to have come from Mennonites.

I really liked the play because it was different from plays that I usually watch. This one was particularly interesting because I am still getting to know the Prairies, and through the play I think that I learned some things about it. Like possibly how the people back then used to dress, and of course, how they used to talk.

During Wiebe's visit to Red River College on April 14, he was asked about the accents of the characters and whether or not he planned them. He became a bit defensive saying something along the lines: that of course he meant for the characters' accents to be like that because he wrote the play and everything he put there was meant to be there. Well, I liked the characters having those accents, even though I had trouble understanding them at first.

I also read some of Wiebe's literature that was related to the play. And I think that gave me a better understanding of the play because it gave me background information on some of the aspects of the play such as the piano.


One thing that I still find weird though, more than the peek at lesbianism in the play, was that the Russian pianist stayed and lived with the couple while he fixed the piano, which took months. But I liked having him there anyway, because I liked that he could play the piano for Susch.

Almost!

It's almost the last week of school and I came across this funny poem on the internet. Read it with feelings. =)




To My Alarm Clock - Anonymous

Every morning I lie there innocently sleeping

When the peace is ruptured by a horrible beeping.
My serenity ripped asunder, sudden and drastic
By this evil, demonic, red-eyed piece of plastic.

I roll over in pain and pound on the snooze,
Groaning, moaning, thinking 'What's there to lose?'
'Don't make me get up, just nine minutes more.'
The same thing I've said every morning before.

It's not that I hate mornings or dread the new day.
It's just that I loathe waking up in this way.
I'd much rather simply rise up with the light,
Glowing in the window, chasing away the night.

But the sudden screaming, the incessant fuss,
Makes me want to yell and cry and simply to cuss.
Especially the knowledge that all of my sorrow
Will be repeated the same time, same way, tomorrow.




I feel like this every Thursday and Friday 'cause my classes start at 8am. But yay last week of classes, coming up!


But I'm probably going to still try to wake up early during the break. There's much more that I can do with that time instead of sleeping in...like watching TV. :)

Stress Busters

It has been pretty hectic these couple of weeks for all of us sleep-deprived CreComms. And when I say hectic, I mean hair-pulling-lucky-to-have-four-hours-of-sleep HECTIC! Walking CreComm ZOMBIES is what we are! @.@
Never have I been this busy in my life! Deadlines here, deadlines there, meetings, articles, layouts, out-of-school assignments AND regular classes! Then add the days I had to be at Church! The weekends didn’t feel like weekends anymore. I just can't believe I survived! I was even able to go out with my friends a couple times! The only downtime I had was during bus rides and bathroom breaks. LOL
That’s why during those weeks up ‘till now, my mantra has become “un jour a la fois,” which means “one day at a time” in French. I even got my friends to say it over and over with me. =))
On the other hand...I am amazed at myself for getting everything done. It’s true that “if you want something done, give it to a busy person” cause it’s just another thing to check off their to do list. ;p
Oh, our busy-ness ain’t over yet...but at least we've passed the busiest few weeks. The deadlines are a bit spread out now. :) But stress, stress, stress will still come our way.
So I have come up with a little list of what I do to cope with hectic-ness so that I don't go insane. =))


1. I go on Facebook...a lot. 
C’mon, who doesn’t Facebook stalk? Hahaha. The downside of Facebooking is that it will tend to throw you off schedule. You’re looking at pictures...scrolling, scrolling...and before you know it, it’s been five hours and you’ve been sitting at the same spot since this morning. =)) ...But at least you’re not insane. LOL


2. I play Tetris on...wait for it...........Facebook.
Just type in “tetris” and click on the application. My gosh it’s addicting. LOL. You play against other players from around the world! Hahaha


3. I go out with friends.
Now I wouldn’t know what I’d do without my friends. They literally keep me sane! They’re the much needed breaks in between all the work! :D


4. I sleep.
When you’re this tired, you could sleep anywhere, anytime! Just close your eyes and you feel yourself start to drift. =))


5. I surf the internet.
When I’m done Facebooking but I’m not yet in the mood for homework, I’d go online and do whatever. Read the news, watch videos, or window shop.


6. I do housework.
Anything to delay starting my homework. LOL kidding! =))
There. Done. Now on to more homework...not! I’m giving myself the night off. To rest is what I need. :)

Blurbs.

I'm supposed to be coming up with a hundred word blurb about myself right now. But why is it so hard for me to do it when I didn't have any trouble doing it for my friends???


Here're some blurbs I made about 2 years ago for our dance concert souvenir booklet.


Blah.


Tin:
At a glance you would see a polished Tin walking along until she gives you her trade mark kiss-wink (sabay giling) greeting.  Hip hop dancer turned cheerleader, this alluring girl entered the squad unbelievably flexy.  Tin, who is fond of anything glittered, can bend and twist surpassing all the laws of the body which just leaves the squad mesmerized.  The most malambing, Tin possesses an endearing smile which effectively hides her equally endearing naughty side.  A self confessed camera lover that Tin is, she gamely poses whenever a camera is pointed at her.  Behind all the glitz and glamour of this pretty pepper who refers to her friends as “dear”, is not only a pep mate but also a sister whom you could talk to about anything.
Cath:
Behind the façade of her ever present dimpled smiles, is a kick ass PEPper who executes immaculate straddles that just makes the whole squad enter a trance and spontaneously spit out praises. Seemingly quiet, you’d never know what kind of funnies and naughties are swirling inside of her until she lets you in on her plans. A cheerleader since forever, this poised princess continued her passion in college in hopes of fulfilling her dream of doing a somersault. Cath was the very first to learn how to do a back-hand spring which brings her dangerously close to fulfilling that dream of hers! Cheers to treasurer Cath!

Zuey:
Just with the twinkle of Zuey’s purple eyes, frustration turns into passion. With her freshly polished finger nails, this cheerleader is determined as hell whenever she does a stunt. Humorously vain, this college and squad sophie always makes it a point to wear pretty eye shadow when she trains. Zuey, whose very passion is to…….giggle (after cheerleading of course), has always shown consistent progress which makes her presence in the squad indispensable. The perfect mix of her charm, personality and style has brought her to where she is now.

Nothing beats having a “Zuey” in this sisterhood called the MC Pep Squad.




Now, back to work! ;p

Starry, Starry Night

"Constellation" used to be my favourite word when I was about 7 years old. I wrote it down in capital letters and taped it to the back of my closet so that whenever I'd open it, I'd see it. Ever since then, I've loved stars.

In the Philippines it'd already be dark by around 8pm. That's when the stars come out. :) My sisters and I would just look up and we'd go, "There's the big dipper!" which is the easiest to find. Then the little dipper. Then Orion, which we refer to as "Orion's Thing" (referring to his belt of course) [ex. "There's Orion's Thing!!" :D] ...just to be different. Then I'd go off and look for my constellation, the Scales (for Libra) ...which is also easy to find because one of the dippers' handles point to it. ;p Does it make sense if I say that the stars up here in Canada are much bigger and brighter than when we see them in the Phils? Maybe because we're closer? Hihihi me don't know.

Star light, star bright, first star I see tonight. Wish I may, wish I might, have the wish I wish tonight. *closes eyes* So, yep...I still do that...automatically to the first star I see. :) And come to think of it, I always have the same wish. I think it's time to change. Hahaha =))

I pretty much like anything that's connected to stars, especially songs. :)

But here's one particular song that I've been fond of since I was little. But it was only in college that I learned the depth and meaning of the song, so I liked it even better. :) It was inspired by Van Gogh's painting, "Starry Night," which of course I also like. ;p


Vincent - Don McLean





Starry, starry night
Paint your palette blue and gray
Look out on a summer's day
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
Shadows on the hills
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
In colors on the snowy linen land

Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now

Starry, starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in violet haze
Reflecting Vincent's eyes of China blue
Colors changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hands

Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now

For they could not love you
But still your love was true
And when no hope was left in sight
On that starry, starry night
You took your life as lovers often do
But I could have told you Vincent
This world was never meant for one as
beautiful as you

Starry, starry night
Portraits hung in empty halls
Frameless heads on nameless walls
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
Like the strangers that you've met
The ragged men in ragged clothes
A silver thorn on a bloody rose
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow

Now I think I know
What you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen they're not listening still
Perhaps they never will





Stars. I'll never get tired of them. :)

A Filipegger: Born This Way

Maria Aragon.

10 years old. Filipino. Newest online sensation. Winnipegger.

OK. As the story nowadays goes: kid sings. video of kid singing uploaded on YouTube. video gets tons of views. video noticed by celebrity. kid = on the way to STARDOM. *insert shimmering sound effects here*

Here you'll see Maria singing Lady Gaga's song, Born This Way. Views are up to 2,028,902 at press time (LOL). Perez Hilton somehow managed to watch it, who then tweeted it to Lady G herself.

"Can't stop crying watching this. This is why I make music. She is the future," said Lady Gaga on Twitter.

The video is only two days old but my, my she's already been interviewed by Ace Burpee of Hot 103, has already made a guesting on, well, Ace Burpee's show hihi, has been offered a trip to Toronto by Virgin Radio 99.9 (which was cancelled due to our lovely blizzardy weather yesterday), and invited to sing with Lady Gaga during the Canadian leg of her tour in March. Whoa, this kid is going to have a great summer! ;p

Pretty cool seeing a young Fil girl from Winnipeg, Manitoba (where that? LOL) makin' waves in the music industry.

The power of the internet, I tell ya, is just A-MA-ZING.

But wait, there's something missing in the equation...hmmm...has Ellen or Oprah seen the video yet? Then she'll sign some record deals. After that, she's off to Glee! hi hi ;p

The Disney princess in me decided this video to be my fave of Maria:



Oh, and one last thing. Maria said on one of her interviews that she idolizes Lady G. Now I don't know how I feel about that yet. Actually I do. I really, really, REALLY hope it's not true. hihi. ;p

Best of luck, Maria! Filipeggers represent! hihihi! ;p

I claim that word BTW...Filipeggers. Bwahaha! ;p

Another last thing: Here she talks to Lady Gaga on air at Hot 103. Actually made me tear up a bit. :)

On Publishing.

If I were to write a book...and the functional word is, IF...I would attempt to have my book published in this order: traditional publishers, self-publish, or publish online. So, online publishing would be my last resort.
I am a firm believer of traditional ways, and I think that it is always best to have something to hold (and to flip over) when reading. There’s just something different when your eyes crawl across a page...of paper...as opposed to something electronic like an iPod or computer screen. It’s more intimate. Holding the book, feeling its weight, and the texture of its pages all take part in the whole experience. Some times even the smell.
My hypothetical book will land on the laps of every publisher that I could think of, that I believe should publish my book. And when they won’t, that’s the only time that I’ll consider self-publishing.
And if self-publishing won’t work for me, then only will I publish online.
I’m not really against publishing online. I just think that there’re a lot of disadvantages. For example, online, it is very easy and instantaneous to copy the book even though it’s protected from “copy and pasting” functions. I also that think that reading from a screen takes away a lot of the magic when reading a book.
So, yeah, I would rather find my hypothetical self-written book on a physical bookshelf, rather than on a virtual bookshelf online. BUT...if I did write a book...it will be so good, that not only traditional publishers will publish it, but online versions in every language will also be available. ;p

If I Could Tell The World One Thing

        If Mubarak steps down, who will replace him? Will the people calm down? Or will there be more fighting with the Mubarak supporters? How many more people have to die and get hurt before they stop? Once this ends, how long will it take for Egypt to reach normalcy again?


        I don't really know much about Egyptian politics...or what the issues over there really are. All I have is what I see through the news. And all I can say is...there's so much violence. You're all brothers, but you're hurting each other.






        They're fighting 24 hours a day.




        What's also sad is that all this could've been avoided. But now their lives halted, they're losing days of business, work, school and family time. Don't they ever get tired? If everyone could just calm down...the person they're fighting about is sitting in his home, troubled but unhurt, while they are bloody, tired, have no money, and probably not even sure if they have a job to get back to after this ends.


        Do they go back home to their families at the end of a day of protesting? Do they get to eat 3 meals everyday? Are they all in fighting mode the whole day? Do all of them really know what they're fighting for? Or are they just going where the crowd goes?

        A difference of opinion doesn't have to lead to violence.

        After destroying much of their city, they're the ones who's going to clean it up too.


        If only all this can just stop on a snap. But it can't. And we can't fast forward time too.

        and please try not to damage any of the pyramids and mummies...I want to see them too...

Bad Week for the World.

A tropical cyclone in Australia.
An earthquake in China.
A superstorm in the United States.
Of course there's Egypt.


And then hearing about this. Just heart breaking.


What's next?


It's a bad week for the world right now.

What is the world coming to?


        Jeddah, KSA: I used to live in that part of the world. It USED to be the driest place I knew. Literally. Not even a drop of rain water for months or years at a time. Although we did have the Red Sea, it's a desert. It rained so rarely, there was no need for a drainage system. (So there's none at all). Then a couple years ago, when my family and I still lived there, it started to rain....hard.

        I remember it started at night because the sound of the rain on the air conditioner (the part that sits outside the window) woke me up and scared me. It took a while before we realized that it was ACTUALLY raining. The next morning, it even started to hail............HAIL!

        It was the first time we saw hail, my mom got so excited that she ran outside...with a plastic bag to catch some...in her nighties! LOL I also remember it was a weekend cause we were all home. [TRIVIA: In the Mid East, the week starts on Saturday. Weekends are Thursday and Friday].

        Anyway, when the rain stopped and the skies cleared, people started coming out of their homes...as did we. It was weird and funny at the same time. It's all flooded outside and yet families are actually out and about on a weekend morning, having fun wading in the flood. Some even had their camcorders with them. hihi.

        So yea. The next flood we heard about was the one in 2009, then again in 2010, and AGAIN just this week!

        Here's a link to Arab News, a local newspaper, showing some pictures of the recent flood: Jeddah Flood 2011.

        From no rain...to major flooding. In what, a span of just 10 years? What is the world coming to?? It's pay back time for all the things we've done to Earth.

        Nowadays we have sinkholes (which, really, you'd think can only happen in movies), tsunamis, mudslides, and other floods in surprising parts of the world. I wouldn't be surprised if it starts snowing in the Philippines. OK, I would.

        I wonder what's up for us in the future?

Our Heritage Too

        I feel bad for the people who tried to stop the looters from getting into one of the museums in Egypt. See story here.  At least they tried.

        If I'm not mistaken, Egypt is one of the earliest civilizations to develop in the world. They are such a big chunk of history, that it's pretty much where the world started. I remember watching a documentary about how Egypt was the most advanced of the early civilizations compared to others at that time; with their art and architecture, religious beliefs, politics and even communications.

        I'm pretty sure everybody knows something about Egyptian history. Mummies, sphinxes, Cleopatra, King Tut, pyramids, pharaohs, sarcophaguses (I had to search that! I knew it sounded like esophagus), hieroglyphics, etc. We've all been learning about them since we were kids.

        With all the commotion going on in Egypt right now, I just hope the protesters don't do much irreversable damage. I hope they stay away from their cultural heritage. Heritage which not only belongs to them, but in a way, also to the world.

        I'm also praying that the revolt ends soon. (And I hope it ends the right way too.) No more bloodshed. No more violence. Everybody has families they want to come back home to.

Winterpegger

        Oh boy is it cold today. BRRRR. Went home at around 7pm today and it was -26 degrees outside without wind chill, -33 with. Both my buses were late. The first one was 2 minutes late, which made me miss my second bus. So I had to wait for the next one...which of course never came. I was waiting at the bus stop - without a shelter - for about 30 minutes. argh.

        To add to that, I wasn't wearing my mittens because I didn't think that I'd have to wait at the bus stop long. So I just stuffed my hands in my pockets. I was too cold to get my mitts from my back pack. I didn't want to move much hihi.

        5 minutes, no bus. 10 minutes, no bus. 20 minutes, no bus. My fingers and toes were already starting to hurt, and my thighs felt like pins and needles. So I had to keep on pacing and moving my fingers and toes.

        Good thing I wore my down jacket today and put on an extra pleather jacket under that. (pleather jackets are really good insulators BTW...or at least mine is.) So I was still warm...it was only my fingers, toes and face that were frooozen.

        My legs were getting so tingly that I was already thinking up a plan in my head of what to do if my legs give way. hahaha.

        Such a relief when my bus finally came after 30 minutes.

        Tomorrow is going to be colder.

        Therefore, I conclude: Winnipeg is cold. So bundle up.

ciao! ;p

DROP IT LIKE IT’S HOT: weight, that is. ;p

I love food. I just can’t stay away from food. No matter what I do. FOOD FOOD FOOD.


        Ever since school started, my exercise routine has practically stopped. And now I’m a couple pounds over my regular weight (and still getting heavier.) Actually, I don't even remember when I last went to the gym....or even if I ever did. .......Oh, you know what, I did. I went to the Wellness Institute a couple times to play badminton with my friends. But still, that isn't really gyming. When I gym...I gym...the whole shebang.
        Anyhoo, all I know is that since September, I’ve been having a hard time fitting going to the gym in my schedule. I always plan to go...but I never do. So by November, I decided to cancel my membership at the Y. Oh how I miss the Y. I figured that if I ever get any time to gym, I can gym at the school gym - for free.
        And so now, I always have my trainers and a change of gym clothes collecting dust in my locker just in case I feel like gyming. I repeat - just. in. case. hahaha. I always do feel like gyming. It’s just that after class, I turn into a lazy bum. When I sit down and look at all the homework I have to do, I sigh and say to myself that “There is no way that I’ll be able to gym.” THEN I log into Facebook. HAHAHA. kidding. But yea...it can take me a few hours to get my homework done, even if its just to write a little paragraph about, say, my IPP. (ok that’s a bit exaggerated.)
        Every time I’m connected to the internet - by laptop or iPod - I almost always somehow end up being on Facebook! Even though I don’t mean to. I’ll be working on a paper, then I’ll get a bit of downtime when I’m thinking of something to write. Then as if my hand’s on auto pilot, it clicks on Facebook. And before I know it, I’ve already ‘liked’ a ton of stuff already, commented on my friends' posts, commented on THEIR comments and posted pictures of myself and whatnot. Argh. LOOK, now I’m talking about Facebook hahahahaha. Perfect example? =)) Ok, I digress.
        Back to the gym. I always plan to go to the gym, *fiddles with her thumbs* but I just never get around to do it. So I just keep packing on the pounds.
        Now to make it even harder is the HOLIDAYS!! ARGH the holidays! *raises fists* Already I don't exercise, and eat so much more than my body can burn, and then there's all that food during the holidays that no way can anybody avoid!! I can almost curse the yummy mouth-watering spread of food on buffet tables...............!$^%$^#@^ WHY DOES FOOD HAVE TO BE SOOO GOOD???? *then takes a couple cupcakes* hahahaha. =))
        I just haven’t been this um.... “meaty” in a long time.
        So, since I know that I’m not the only one with this problem - cause I noticed that some people seem to be chubbier in the Winter than in the Summer (MWAHAHAHAHA!) - I wanna share some tips on how you can drop some weight.
  1. EAT, EAT, EAT. then GYM, GYM, GYM. This is one thing you can do if you don’t wanna lessen the food you eat. I highly recommend this but you have to be DISCIPLINED. And you need to have a REGULAR SCHEDULE of exercise in order to make this work.
  2. Eat in small portions. My sister used to do this because she wanted to lose a few pounds for her grad ball...and she did. She used to only eat from a little bowl maybe about 3.5 inches in diameter and 2.5 inches deep. Everything would be in there, rice and a viand. She’ll only eat one of those bowls per meal. Whatever she could fit in there. I tried that once, but I had to get seconds, thirds, and fourths. hahaha. =))
  3. DON’T EAT. yea right.
        OK, that's all I got. Basically, what I’m saying is that NOT EATING is not an option, so it’s either eat less, or eat AND exercise.
        You have to work for it. I don’t really believe in liposuction or those diets. Because they’re only temporary. And they cost money. What if you can’t afford to pay for those anymore? Whacha gonna do huh? Whacha gonna do???
        So what of these do I do? I do #1 hihihi. But then again, since September, I’ve only been able to do half of it...which is to EAT EAT EEEEEAT. hahaha. Oh well. That’s life. Imma really start THINKING about gyming fo’realz.
        Remember, the key is DISCIPLINE. Another key is SELF-CONTROL. (Question: if there’re keys, where’re the locks? BWAHAHAHAHAHA)
        And finally, remember: NO PAIN, NO GAIN.

Kbye. ;p
