One down, one more to go

So I took my Shakespeare final today and that was a relief to get over with. Actual, the best part about it was that we had a take home essay that we had to write and turn in before the exam, so turning in my last paper of my college career was one of the best feelings ever. When I clicked the 'send' button, I was all like, "Yahoooooooo! No more papers!!!!" It was quite the happy dance that followed afterwards. But I still have one more final to go (that will basically last 12 minutes... literally. We are given a topic, have 6 minutes to prepare our presentation, and then we present our argument to our teacher in 6 minutes. How's that for getting a final over and done with. I'm just not looking forward to preparing for it--thus, why I'm writing my blog instead of studying). Don't worry, the teacher loves me, and if I've learned anything from university, it would be the art of B.S.ing (yes Dad, that is what your hard earned money has helped me to learn these past 6 years). So let's just say I've honed in and mastered this technique very well in order to get passing grades... and I don't see myself losing this art any time soon (*she says now... but lets see if she actually passes the final tomorrow). Anyway, I probably should get back to studying but just one more thing;

So as a fitting requiem to my Shakespeare class, I went to go see The Complete Works of Shakespeare Abridged, by the Reduced Shakespearean Company. I have seen this show a couple of times before and it never ceases to make me laugh and have a constant smile on my face. It's basically these three guys who take all of Shakespeare's 37 plays and perform them in about an hour and a half. I can't even paint the hilarity of it all. Now granted I knew most of the jokes already (but they're hilarious jokes which always make me laugh), but their improve was outstanding. There was a part in the play where they cut off Macbeth's head (which is basically a ball in a canvas sack with a little happy face drawn on it), and Macduff ends up hitting the head out into the audience with a golf club (cause it's a Scottish play and all). Anyway, it goes flying out into the audience, which was funny in and of itself. But then the dumb British audience member threw it back onstage and one of the guys yelled out, "See, this is why you don't win the world cup... you're supposed to keep the ball!" That had the audience roaring with laughter, myself and Ashleigh being the loudest ones in the bunch. Speaking of Ashleigh's laughter, there was a part where it went completely silent and Ashleigh had been laughing so hard before, that she was trying to catch back her breath and basically she let out a squeak. It was so funny, because the guys in the show, just looked up from what they were doing and gave us a confused look saying, "What the crap was that? Do you have a balloon out there?" which basically made Ashleigh and I laugh even harder. We had a difficult time composing ourselves after that, but it was so funny. I love nights where I just have a smile on my face and I can enjoy a good show... until I come back to my flat and realise I have a final tomorrow at 10 am and then my night is shattered with the dread of studying. The only glistening item of hope is knowing that in less that 10 hours, I will never have to take a university exam again and I will officially be a college "gradimicate!"
