Orson Welles is...The Man!

     I have known and realized many people throughout this year could have been nominated...The Man. But out of everyone we've read or heard about, I am proud to say that Orson Welles, the mastermind behind his cast of Julius Caesar, is in my opinion known as, "The Man!"
     Why do I think this?? Well let's see here, he is the owner of the Mercury Theater, he runs the whole Julius Caesar play, he plays Brutus in the play, he commands people to do things for him, and he is very wealthy. He's pretty much the King of New York! I mean common people!...in chapter 6 when Houseman and Welles barge into the theater for rehearsal Houseman is complaining about what Welles is doing for the theater like as in how he is helping and his response was, "I am the Mercury Theater!" With a silence after that in shock. And if you don't understand that then shame on you. Orson Welles just told a man off and he had no comeback to that! How could anyone else think of such thing to respond to that?!
     As for Richard I feel like he's in grave danger of getting in real trouble soon from the school and his family. Although he does have a point...if he perfects his small seen with him playing the ukulele he could become an actual Broadway actor! I have a feeling that his wish will come true and that he will get the girl of his dreams, Sonja.

Me and Orson Welles

     Hello y'all! Our class has been recently beginning the book Me and Orson Welles. They say that this so to speak of "Orson Dude" is also considered to be "The Man." Now I don't know about you...but I don't believe that! This book seemed to have looked like another boring novel were reading but so far I've kinda liked it! I'm interested into reading more and finding out in what is going to happen later. I guess not everything is expected to be the way you treat it; for example, my mom always tells me that if I enter something with a bad attitude I won't do as well. The results seem to become true surprisingly! But if I enter something with a positive attitude then my results will be great. She has a good point and if that doesn't work out for you then you're just plain weird!
     Speaking of my mom, I hope you would know that today is Mother's Day. A day to celebrate being and having your mom. I know I love my mom to death, she takes care of me all the time and I can talk to her about anything and just so  much more I can't even think of. I bought her last Wednesday her favorite perfume, if you have heard of the name...Cocoa Chinnelle?  (I think that's how you spell it??) (Stupid red line under that word you're supposed to fix my mistakes I'm trying to get a 20/20 on this blog!!!) Cough, cough, pardon me there I was having a moment. Anyways where were we??, ahh yes mother's day. I bought her that and as a matter of fact that was her birthday gift because her birthday was May 5th. But anyways I want you to thank your mother for everything she's done for you and also to tell her that you love her...that means a lot to them. Have a great day I know I will!
