Well today, we move further into Scene 3 of AYLT. As we tried to analyse the story, I actually take down notes in my scene script. This will help me understand clearly about the story. I learnt that Elvis was in deep pain, not physically but emotionally because of his loved ones leaving him again and again. The content is about Elvis missing his mother who died due to some illness but Elvis was still so upset about it because he was not there when his mother, Gladys passed away. During that time, he was in the US Army. He felt really sad until he decided to take drugs. The drugs he took were to escape the pain everything he was going through at that point of time. But I don't think it will solved the problem. It will just add on to more problems and it is just harmful. If I were Elvis Presley, I won't take the drugs even if I was really sad. I just let the matter go slowly and try to think about the future. Let the past be bygone (:

S. Off,

Well today I could say that Mr Chua was not happy with our class for Literature. Again, a number of people didn't hand in their homework on time which was due last Thursday. Luckily I handed in mine earlier in the Lit tray. Mr Chua said we have to be responsible for our own deeds. And must hand in all homewoks on time so that it would save time during lessons especially if time given is crucial. Plus, the teacher don't have to waste time scolding us about homeworks. Moving on, we were given our our Lit assignment which is due next Monday on Scene 2 of AYLT. It would be an easy assignment if we had listen closely and absorbed the information given as we discussed these answers last week. Also our very first Lit assignment of the Term was given back. The one that involved research in it. I got 16 out of 20 but that doesn't mean I have done well. I have to work harder and pay close attention^^ We discussed the various answers for the worksheet and then moved on to watch last year's performances on Merchant of Venice & Romeo and Juliet. I couldn't understand the scene well as it was too soft to be heard from .But as Mr Chua said they did not have Debate Training programmes like us, so we should be speaking louder than them.

S. off ♥

Today, there was no Literature lesson apparently because Mr Chua wasn't today. We had a relief teacher, Mr Amirul. My first impression of him was that he looked super tall. Ok since there's nothing else to elaborate, I will share 1 video about Elvis Presley. The video was one of the song that sang by him. It was ' Trouble ' .

For today's lesson, we had a quick round of simple questions on AYLT. However, I did find some of the questions a little difficult to answer. I guess these would be the type of manipulative questions in the exams. Mr Chua is getting us prepared. There were some who did not manage to answer it, but as said was a little tough. Moving on to Scene Two! With Younger Presley this time. There will more scenes coming up ^^

Signing Off,

Monday

So, we continued learning about Elvis Presley! I find it interesting learning about him. We had questions mostly basic ones that are related to the current play we're studying on, Are You Lonesome Tonight. So then, we continued with the play and learnt even more, it gets interesting (: But back to Elvis, he is a good person deep down even though in the play, he seemed harsh and cold to people. But I think he does care for people, for example his fans because I think he wants to do the best performance for them. That was my opinion.

Thursday

I would say this was a lesson that was much meaningful and all about thinking. No scolding by the way. Good ! We got our brains tested by having Mr Chua asking our class, individually, questions on the play. Most of them found it difficult to answer the questions but I noticed they were trying their best to answer. And thats was good! Mr Chua also noticed this, and to those that said "I dunno" were asked to THINK. It was a thinking moment for us. I did think and had my answer ready in case I were to called but I was not. Then , homework was distributed on AYLT. It is to be handed up next Monday. Put in the tray earlier to avoid any delay and scoldings from Mr Chua .

*What I think about Elvis Presley*

Actually I don't even know this guy until I read the text about him . He was once the King of Rock & Roll. But here, we got to know even more. So basically, he's an american singer who became so famous but after he had problems of weight issues and drug overdose, he became not-so famous i think. He used to be very popular with the girls too (: Anyway, he was briefly married to a lady named Priscilla Beaulieu in 1967 but unfornately, their marriage was not last long. They got divorced in 1973. Yes, they even had a daughter named Lisa Marie who married Michael Jackson for a short while. I heard that he became bloated soon after, well its true anyway. I think that is a pity as he was the famous rocking musician of Rock N Roll and his life got wasted. But I don't think he meant to do that. I presume he was under a lot of pressure. So peoples out there, don't EVER EVER try to do the bad things ;> Hehe !

Hello ;> This will be my first post for this term. So basically we had lessons every Monday and Thursday with Mr Chua. Ms Maly will not be teaching us anymore. This term, we all will be learning various plays and have a Shakespeare drama performance coming up. It is either 'Merchant of Venice' or 'Romeo and Juliet'. Then, we were divided into 4 groups : Alpha, Bravo, Charlie and Delta. I was in Delta group.

Director : Guang Hao

Actor 1 (IC) : Shao Wen

Actor 2 : Umar

Actor 3 : Hakim

Actor 4 : Yu Zhen

Wardrobe 1 (IC) : Putri

Wardrobe 2 : Zhi Xin

Wardrobe 3 : -

Set Decorator (IC) : Ann Gek

Set Decorator : Xin Yin

Set Decorator : Shafiqah

So we had to be playing each different roles in a play we chose. My group had chosen R&J as we think that it will be easy to handle. I am in theset decorater department for now. Also, in the past week we were given homework based on different roles in theatre production. I managed to find about all the roles on the internet as Mr Chua had said (: And yah , we had to give 25 cents to Ray for the Literature text regarding Are you Lonesome Tonight and The Mighty Mandarin.

Love ,
