We finished watching "supersize me" in Science today. Creator Morgan Spurlock tries to imitate an average obese American by not exercising and eating at McDonald's every day, every meal. It was very interesting to see the drastic decline in health at the end of his 30-day trial.
Then, we rehearsed our play in English. I find that my group members aren't very good at pronouncing the words and do not say them with the appropriate tone of voice. To me the "play" seems to be just a monotonous monologue. I tried to correct them, but their attempts at correcting is even worse, so I didn't bother. Or maybe it's because I'm setting my standards too high by expecting them to be the same as a Bard actor.
In band, we played a theme from Aladdin. We also watched the segment in the actual movie that contained that theme. It was very interesting to see how similar our piece was to the segment of the movie.
My laptop is getting slower every day. As I am typing this right now, each letter takes about 1.5 seconds to get on the screen, and I have annoying lags if I type too fast. My new desktop is arriving sometime next week. I wish it could come sooner.
