On My Shelf

This week has been a blast. From Band performances to the start of Tech week for Diary of Anne Frank, I've been running around setting things up and tearing things down. So I didn't do much reading. That is not to say I didn't do any reading at all. I read the script for Diary of Anne Frank. Not a compelling piece of literature in the normal sense, but it does have a fine trail of drama and cynicism laced through the actions and screenplay. While I can honestly say it is one of the most depressing things I've read, It has a small blink of hope that makes the tragic downfall all that more tragic. I don't think it's bad, but it isn't necessarily the best production I've seen either.

OTHER NEWS: Politics

I won't spend long on this, partly because I can't vote anyway and partly because I couldn't care less even if I could vote. I just can't wait until the ads are gone and I can have my TV back. Also, most of the negative energy will be gone. I hate election years, they bring out the worst about our best. It's okay to be patriotic, but to go to a level where opinions suddenly don't matter and it's about following everyone else or be the traitor who 'disagrees' with your country is just too much. Either way I don't care all that much, but life will be a bit more positive when they are all gone. 1st World Problems.
