Prologue

Ramblings, Ravings, Musings and Mutterings of a charlatan....

Regarding

The Charlatan. A Writer. A Clown. Sometimes a Barnstormer. Vaudevillian. Pirate. I'm a idealistic cynic, silent writer, trapped traveller... God help me, I'm complusively paradoxical.

ever notice how you seem to live on the edge of things? probably just all in my head but i notice that i always manage to be on the edge of stuff. mostly, its in my choice of books and comics but its also in my schooling and my CCAs. Plus, in the way i generally live. a weird character trait if i do say so myself.


**** PLOT TWIST****

one thing that really annoys me is television. esspecially american television. not that i disagree with it or anything, its just that so much of it revolves around people critising other people. of course, that's funny but sometimes it can be overkill. i mean who elects a president, proclaims him an idiot, mocks the way he speaks and his policies, then REELECTS him. Glorious. In s'pore you can say a lot of things about the gahmen(behind closed doors at least) but you cant say that they are stupid. Seriously, they're all friggin genius. Even their children are geniuses. i mean, people mock some of the lower levels of buerocracy but the top is solid,leh.


****PLOT TWIST****

I probably mentioned this before but i need to reiterate. SYDA is killing me. wrote the first draft of a script then found out that it has to be set to a theme that s'porean youth is interested in. ARGH.


****PLOT TWIST***


an interesting thing happened in drama today. i have finally perfected the art of the 'Plot Twist Maneuver'. it is a unique technique of random that allows the user to suddenly change the subject or make something funny. it invovles stating sometime mildy suprising and over-emphasizing it by waving one's hands around for at least twenty-thirty seconds(in drastic conditions, a minute may be required).


for instance...

"then i realized that you can't divide by zero... PLOT TWIST!(wave hands around)"
"At which point we ran out of seasoning....PLOT TWIST!(wave hands around)"
"then snape kills dumbledore.....PLOT TWIST!(wave hands around)"
"but he still probably isnt evil...PLOT TWIST(wave hands around)"








hahahahaha.
