Today was pretty fun.. i had classes, like normal, but then after class, a whole group of us went to see "Don Giovanni". It was my first official, real, live opera. It was in italian with English subtitles, and it was pretty cool. I wish i could see a professional one. The only problem is, like some of us were discussing, that it tends to get slightly boring, because we live in such a fast-paced society, whereas in opera, they tend to repeat the same line about ten times. I've always been a sucker for live performances, though. Even just the little home-town plays my friends and i would go to.. i loved them. There was one where there was a grand total of like six actors, but it was still great! i miss being in chorus, and performing on a stage like that. Band is fun, but acting is so amazing. I love getting into the part, and being able to put my whole being into becoming someone else. i wish i had the chance to do that, even amaturely, here. It would be fun. Of course, i also want to learn about ten different languages, and i doubt i'll be able to do that, either. Let's see.. my current list is: Spanish, Hawaiian, ASL, Latin, Dutch, German, Welsh, Zulu (i don't even know if they would offer that) .. and pretty much anything else i could get my hands on. It would be so much fun!
It's a good thing i like science, too, though, considering that's going to be what spending like 80% of my college career doing. Oh.. how about, next semester, i'm taking PDBio220, and we get to look at cadavers! i'm kind of excited. I really just see it as scientific, and i've never been queazy. I'm the kind of person that sits there and watches them stick the needle in my arm when i give blood, and just comments "oh.. that's neat. wonder how they learned they could do that..". Dissecting things during freshman year biology was fun! (except for the starfish.. they felt disgusting). And we don't have to dissect the cadavers.. just study them. There's a separate class for dissecting the cadavers.. i think that's neat. i might want to take it, just because. and hey, it would fill one of my requirements for my major, so why not?
