Summer Camp

For summer camp I decided to do musical theater. The show that we did for musical theater was Beauty and the Beast. We had to audition for roles, including narrator, for some reason. You could audition for five at most. First, we were given audition packets to practice. Then, we got a packet full of all the songs. Lastly, an email with a ten page script was sent to us and we printed it out. I got the role of Mrs. Potts, which is a teapot that is very round and is the mother to the cup named Chip. For my costume I got this huge puffy skirt that goes down to my shins. I also wear a cute teapot hat and an apron, plus a little thing around my neck. Chip, which is the tiny cup also wears the hat and the thing around the neck. The costumes are all really nice. The person who plays the Beast has to wear a fake beast beard and two gloves with creepy fingers. In other words, the beautiful costumes are well beautiful. We've worked really hard for over two weeks and we're performing on Monday. It'll be so fun!

First Day of Summer Camp

Today was the first day of summer camp, and the thing that was funny was that summer camp started on a Thursday (which is today) and ends on a Tuesday. It's only 14 days of summer camp. Last year it was 15 days, which was 3 weeks, except on July 4th there was no summer camp, so now that I think about it, summer camp lasts for 14 days. I did musical theater, and my sister did this movie making camp. We're doing Beauty and the Beast this time, and tomorrow, which is Friday is when we're auditioning. So far the musical itself seems nice. We're probably going to play games, and perform the musical. It started at 8:30 and ended at noon. After camp was over, I went to pick up my brother from basketball camp with my mom after she had picked up my sister and me. I'm not sure what to audition for, there's Belle and the Beast and other characters, but the teacher says that everyone has to audition no matter what role you want. In other words the teacher says that even though you want the ensemble/chorus you still have to sing in front of everyone as the audition. The teacher says that everyone will sing the song in front of others, and your classmates will rate you and star the best person that they think would do the best as that role.

The 2nd Day of Summer

Today is the third day of summer vacation, it was so boring. I didn't do anything, mainly because I didn't have classes while my other siblings did. First off, I woke up at 8:00 A.M. literally at that exact time. Then I read a book and ate breakfast. I felt sick, so I went to sleep for around an hour. Then, my siblings went to camp, and I stayed at home watching youtube. Yes, I know. Watching youtube, so fun... After that, I ate lunch at around 1 P.M., then I just read for an entire 2 hours. Then I went to the pool, got home showered, then ate dinner. After dinner, my family and I went to play basketball. Then we went home, and here I am writing this blog. It was such a boring and short day that I literally summarized it in around 5 sentences. Okay, maybe more than that, but you get the idea.

Family Outing

Today, my family and I went to Irvine Regional Park. We went there because for boy scouts, my brother had to do volunteer hours. He was supposed to work there for 3 hours. First, we dropped my brother off. Then, we went onto the little train ride, that was like a small and short 10 minute tour. After the train ride was over, my sister went on a horse and I didn't because I was too tall. After her 3 minute ride, we went over to ride a single surrey. It's where two people peddle and two children can fit in the front. We managed to fit one more person in the back but not peddling. We went places, and we peddled a lot for an entire hour. It was so fun, but I'm not going to describe it now. After that, we drove to In-N-Out for lunch, then we went home.
