Designing project FINALLY FINISHED :D

I have enjoyed working on our Designing Project this week in our Theatre classes; I wasn't here on Tuesday so I had a little bit more work to catch up with than the others, but I managed to finish everything for Friday. Although I was very proud with my own maquette, I would just like to say that it tok ages to do! I thought I would never finish in time and I was stressing out so badly on how I could finish it. I hate handing in homework late, it makes me feel so guilty and week! But I am also the kind of person that starts doing all homework last minute (still trying to find a solution for this one!), which I confess I have been doing with my Extended essay, I haven't done the amount of work I already should have done. 
I tend to think that the work given to us will disappear if I don't do it and that if a teacher would give me three weeks for a project, I would always start the 2 before it's due. It's always been like this with me, but I better find a way to sort my priorities out before next year, and especially for all of the Theatre exams! For the PPP(I think?) we are given 4 weeks to prepare for it, now I better move into the library if I want to get some proper work done on that!  
Anyways, I don't know how I managed to finish in time but I still did it, so I was really proud of myself. Everyone seemed to look particularly interested in my idea of rotating the props on stage, by using the mechanical revolve. I have to admit it, that was a pretty original idea I got there!
I have seen some interesting stuff I would want to "borrow" from all of them.
 
Saturday evening was the TMA performance, the theatre group I go and help with which took place in Leguevin. Two performances took place, the musical Bugsy Malone, and a Breath of Fresh Air (the group I am in). 
It was a very hot day and the children seemed to have a little problem for concentrating on stage. I wouldn't say this was their best performance, I have seen them do a lot better; a few of them seemed to have forgotten all of their lines and the dance routines which was a shame. All of these months of hard work, and now they forgot everything for the big night! Perhaps stage fright was behind this?
But the audience didn't really see to care (which was a good thing, fiou!) and the children still had a lot of fun on stage.


Just like Georgia, I too am looking forward for our next project, and I think I might have a clue what we will be doing from now on, and that will take up our summer. The Research Investigation, if I am not mistaking?
