In Limelight

After Friday nights social I went to the movies with Alistair and Chris…. We saw Kung Fu Hustle. The movie was rather odd. It wasn’t the best movie but it was entertaining so I give this movie a 6/10.
After the movie they also came back to my place and showed me what I was doing wrong in WOW…. it’s all good now.
And today I had to wash the cars to pay for my new graphics card, then went to southland and bought another ‘Sharpie’ marker after my old one was borrowed by Johnny and never got it back. Now I a left with the annoying homework to do. I have a math assignment, history assignment, English (which I don’t know what I am supposed to do) and I have to learn my lines for my theatre studies performance but I am really good at doing things at the last minute.

Recently I bought WOW which is fun but my computer couldn’t give the best quality picture. The screen was always kind of jerky so I after looking around on the internet I found a new graphics card that would be able to make the game play a lot better. If you’re interested the card I got was a NVIDIA GeForce 6600 with 256MB of ram. When I first opened the box I was surprised to see the size of the heat Zink heat sink. It was a lot larger than what I expected because it covers most of the actual card but this is because it doesn’t have a fan attached so as long as it doesn’t constantly overheat I’ll be happy.

Also after installing it and loading all the drivers I realized I could have a dual monitor setup so I grabbed another monitor and connected it up and it works perfectly. So now I can have two screens up at the same time. YAY!

Last night was the last show of Little Shop of Horrors at school. As you may know I was the lighting caller for the production.

Besides the lights breaking during the performance every thing else in the final show was excellent but the first night was a bit of a disaster although it wasn’t too bad it could have been a lot better. It kind of sucks that it is over because I had a lot of fun with this production and would like to do it again. Before the performance Chris and I were given a card from the director saying that we had made Haileybury history by being the youngest lighting operators for a school musical.

The end of little shop of horrors also means it is the last performing arts production at school for the year. Next year will be the annual ‘Tattoo’ (which I have been involved with since grade 1).

I have just done another test on the tickle tests web site. This one was about my brain.

Most right-brained people like you are flexible in many realms of their lives. Whether picking up on the nuances of musical concerto, appreciating the subtle details in a work of art, or seeing the world from a different perspective, right-brained people are creative, imaginative, and attuned to their surroundings.

You are also more intuitive than many. When it comes to reading literature, you probably prefer creative writing or fiction over nonfiction. And when it comes to doing math, you might find you enjoy geometry more than other forms like algebra.
