Musical Theatre & Aboriginal Day

Straight up? I'm not liking this. Its a "Musical Theatre" class, right? I'm in it... But I'm the Stage Manager. Not an actress or anything, obviously. But anyways, Mr. Jones isn't here a lot of the time & I mean, I understand that. He's a busy man. But half the time when he's not here, we don't do anything! The other half of the time, they sing. After all, I mean, it IS "Musical Theatre," but what am I suppose to do? This class wares me out. If it starts off the day, I'm sooo tired & it does NOT wake me up. If I'm awake before this class, it makes me wanna pass out. I like being able to watch & stuff and being the Manager of it all is fun, but it'd be GREAT if I had a purpose! Honestly!

Also, for my Learning Center block, I'm suppose to be organizing Aboriginal Day. Yeaaahh, that's not going anywhere. I need to know what kind of funding I have before I try & plan anybody or anything. June is just in 4 months, we gotta get a kick off. I offered to help, not to do it mySELF. I was told I'd have all this help, but nope. Its (also) killing me. I'm stressing about it because its not getting done. Its suppose to be in replacement of "MESS Stock" but I'm thinking it won't follow through. And if it does? Well... I mean, one or two things will happen. One, we DO follow through & nobody likes it anyways. Two? Everybody skips. Honestly, that's what will happen. Its Aboriginal Day... Is that not enough said?

Don't get me wrong. I'm getting older & I wanna learn more about Cultral Activities & Traditions, but not many other people do... Most of the Natives I talked to - THEY said they would skip Aboriginal Day. The way we're raised? We don't really rely on Culture, which sucks. I wish I knew everything about our ways, but I don't. Anyways, I was jus' sayin... If Natives don't attend their own day, what makes you think non-Natives will?

That's what I thought. Enough said.
