My lightbulb goes on!

Following the shenanigans of Sports Day, when Hairil taught me a new word "montage", which happens to mean collage, yep, a bright idea returned. ^^ . Yea, and if you have no idea what i am saying, dictionary.com is always good. I'm practising some vocab in this post. Here goes the chockpot of ideas.

Apparently, I asked Mr Bryant last year if we could have something like a festival for Arts... and he said it was going to be a lot of planning... and very clashing, resulting in my ambivalent attitude towards this brainchild as the time passes.

He was right to some extent. Ah well, I would've liked to see this happen. C'mon, we have Sports Day, then we have Maths and Science Week, both of which no one really pays attention to. As majority of us (or all of us) would have agreed, have something to entertain you during Sports Day, and the only thing worth listening to during the M & S week is probably the soap-making.

This just goes to show ...

1. There is no outlet for Arts (C'MON UG HAVE THEIR OWN DAYS!)

2. There's no specific interesting thing that appeals to people who happen to NOT belong to any of the aforementioned groups ... My mum said that I coudn't be interested during sports day because it just wasn't my thing.

3. Why shouldn't the school pay more attention to aesthetics and stuff outside of the boring curriculum! Isn't it obvious?! Only an early human wouldn't understand how art - the cornerstone of creativity and intelligence - is mandatory in advancement! (This will be furthur explained in an upcoming post)

Yep, anything that you can add to this list, is very good for a petition .. (that is going to be ignored anyway).

Honestly, we should have such a festival. Very very renaissance if you ask me. =) We should have everything to do with the Arts ^^. By that, I mean all non sports, ug or science ccas. All over campus. Everywhere! Ahh .. that would be a dream come true. Darn, I can be such an idealist.

This might not happen in this school, maybe in a tertiary institution. Or in another arts-respecting school.

Yep, and the film that is in discussion. It's most likely not going to happen, but hey, at least we gotta get the first part done - planning, scripting bla bla.

I think i'm going to be laughed at if anyone outside of EL reads this. You guys have absolutely no clear idea about this ... it's a going to be a painful, humbling, embarassing experience throughout. Very muc because people don't think much of us, or whether eldds is capable of nurturing people. But as far as Constance is concerned, she has done her job.

As Shakira would have said when it came to an artistic project: It's a baby, and it doesn't come without the delivery pains. Anddd she'd say it in a cool Latina Colombian accent.

CHEERS,
Cornstance
