The rest of the story

    So for my short sermon I stumbled a little but for the most part was able to say what I had written. I changed some things while I was up there, added a scripture that wasn't in my notes... The thing is when I practice by myself I could say the whole thing without flaw... and the minute it's with others my voice fails... I hate that... Anyway I did it in 4:20. This is much improved from my original time... Thank you to everyone who supported me!

    Human video... the first thing I'm supposed to be laying down on the edge of three chairs... the chairs that they provided were extremely slick, and they slanted steeply back. As I tried ot position myself I kept sliding so that I had to hold myself in postion. As I am doing this they are getting ready to start the music and I am thinking "this is really bad!" So the music starts and I am supposed to sit up. The problem is that I usually sit up to where I am sitting half and half on two of the chairs, but as I did this, those two chairs began sliding apart so I was sitting up with nothing under me! AHH.... so I grab the chairs trying to correct myself while staying with my character... apparantly I made it... later chris said "Nice catch!!" what a relief!.... I missed one cue, but was told that I did the mask pulls ok. That is harder than it looks... pulling a mask off, changing your facial expressions at the moment your hand comes over your face... hmmm....
Special thanks to Marcus!!! He helped soooo much!!
There are still some things that I think should have advanced which didn't.... I think our group performed great even if the judges didn't advance some things.
I now get to go write as much as I can in my about 25 some odd pages that need to be done :-p
y'all have a great day

Man. Isn't it great having fine arts RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF FINALS? Such a joy. Man, it sure will be great to be done with all this stuff. An Old Testament final tonight, presentation tomorrow, and dreaded physical science exam. YIPPEEE!
