Freshman LCD Final Project.

This is what I designed, made, and modelled.

I don’t generally like to reblog myself (though I’ve been finding that I’ve been doing a lot of that. If you’re interested, my other tumblr has my fashion inspiration, pretty pictures, and awkward pictures of me). But I feel like a lot of my more recent followers follow me for my fashion stuff, which makes sense with the influx of fashion sketches I’ve been posting. So therefore, I’m reblogging this one.

In the dying days of UC app submission season, I’ve decided to post a fat cow’s “100% honest” guide to college applications in the hopes that I can waste some poor senior’s time. By no means do I guarantee the efficacy, accuracy, or sanity of these pieces of advice that I am about to dispense.

Dear Senior,

So, Congress has categorized pizza sauce as a vegetable.

This sounds like something a third grader might have thought up in a “If I Were President” assignment, once again demonstrating that our nation is run by children.

At least fat people won’t feel too bad about themselves…

What happens when corruption, incompetence and false information combine? As seen in Cupertino Actors Theater’s (CAT) The Government Inspector, it seems that the result is pure hilarity.

The Government Inspector follows the story of a mayor and his delegation in pre-Communist Russia, when the Czar was still in power. The post mistress, who is depicted as an intrusive gossip-monger, intercepts a letter from the capital. The letter holds that a government official has been sent to the town to make sure that it is functioning properly. These allegations are supposedly confirmed when two rather unintelligent (but lovable) townspeople see a man at the local inn asking everyone how they thought the meal was.

This sends the mayor into a fit, as his town has not at all been functioning properly. The hospital is too small to fit any patients, the school’s speech instructor has a stutter, the post mistress (Anastasiya Yezhova) reads every single letter she delivers and the courtroom is home to a goose whose cage is half-filled with feces.

It is revealed to the audience, however, that the man who is thought to be the inspector is actually not the inspector, and is instead a naive and rather foolish man who wanders around Russia and accumulates massive debt. The mayor and his delegation do not know this, though, and they attempt to please and bribe the “inspector” so that he will report that the town is functioning well to the Czar. The man plays on this misconception, and chaos and hilarity ensues.

The play was a comedy from the start, and the characters themselves were played brilliantly. The mayor (Robert Burton) was a loud and easily provoked fellow whose attempts to woo the alleged inspector were both obvious and hilarious. The mayor’s secretary (Jarred Rodriguez) was irked by the mayor’s antics, and his hilarious facial expressions made up for his lack of lines. The doctor (Brandon Gong) seemed to be a drug addict, as he constantly consumed pills in tight or uncomfortable situations. The surgeon (Tobias Shin) was perhaps the most entertaining character of all; he was a foreign man who could not speak any English and only knew phrases such as “Let mother nature take its course.” The school principal (Chaitanya Karve) was a blundering, nervous man who occasionally spouted out comedic genius. The judge (Krystal Allen) was a woman who seemed to have a fetish for dirty animals. The mayor’s wife (Shaina Lumish) was a power hungry dominatrix who hit on the supposed “government inspector”. Her daughter (Jessica Hoglund) was a passionate young woman who fell in love with the “inspector,” and the “inspector” himself (Scott Maxwell), although brilliantly played, was really nothing more of a suicidal low-life who could somehow afford a sarcastic servant (Gene Wang). The two villagers (Sean Howard-Pitney and Billy Schmidt) who acted like twins, however, stole the show. They bowed numerous times upon entering rooms and created incredibly hilarious atmospheres that could even made a rock chuckle.

The supporting cast added much to the show. Many parts of the play had a unique touch, and for reasons that I have not yet discerned, one of the mob members had an Indian accent. Both the inspector’s servant and the mayor’s servant (Andrea Lowitz) were equally humorous, especially with the allusions to their subtle but scandalous romance.

I have to say that the lights and the backdrops were astounding as well. Everything was created to make a set that looked like something straight out of a communist Dr. Seuss book. The music choice was additionally enjoyable. I now know of the existence of a Russian version of “Hot n’ Cold” by Katy Perry, and have consequently bought and five-starred it on iTunes.

Also to note is how the overall experience of the actors did not dilute the experience at all, even though half of CAT’s well-rounded troupers from last year were missing. Many came in with somewhat low expectations for the entire feature because of the lack of experience of the actors, but I only have two words for them: Big mistake. The student-actors created an atmosphere that felt as if they have been here for years, and not once did any of them hesitate or forget their lines. There were some tongue-twisters every now and then, but it feels good to know that the spring musical coming up in March will be studded with stellar actors like these.

 
There is, however, one small flaw in this otherwise brilliant play. There was a rather large amount of inappropriate jokes throughout the entire thing. Some of these jokes, although greatly adding to the comedic effect, might badly influence the younger sibling who still believes that a stork dropped him down the chimney when he was born. For people who wish to bring those types of kids, it might be better have them stay and watch cartoons at home instead.

The Government Inspector, with its comedic foundation and many lovable characters, is a play worth watching twice. I give my compliments to the hilarious cast and their director, drama teacher Arcadia Conrad, for their hard work and successful feat. As a journalist though, I have to say one thing to those of the cast that are reading this right now: It turns out you guys were really going to be in the paper after all.

This is worth a re-reblog. Follow The Prospector’s tumblr! You won’t regret it! :D

まず言いたいのは、私の「革命（かくめい）雑誌」が終わったことです。

永遠におわりました。

もう二度（にど）と見ません。

今週は地獄（じごく）の週でした。

大きなプロジェクトを提出（ていしゅつ）、テスト、オーケストラのリハーサルのうえにほかの宿題や効果後（ほうかご）やらないといけないことがたくさんなりました。

しかも後二週間で、期末テストです！　あああああ～

だから私は期末テストが終わるまで、非常（ひじょう）に忙しいです。

とにかく、もう十二月です。二年目の一学期がもうすぐ終わるということです。

私の二年目はまぁまぁです。

数学以外（いがい）のクラスでは、よくできました。

私は前から数学が苦手（にがて）です。

それ以外には、宿題もそこまで多くないし、一年生のときより眠（ねむ）れます。

私の一年目は毎日夜更かし（よふかし）して、むだになりました。

最近は、背が高くなるためになるべく早く寝ようとしています。

休みが待ちきれません。たくさん寝たいです。

本当に本当に寝たいです。

外国語を習うのは、私にとって難しかったり邯鄲だったりします。

私にとって、日本語は簡単なところと難しいところがあります。

文法は分かりやすいので、あまり習うのは難しくないと思います。

感じも簡単です。けれど、訓読みと音読みの違い（ちがい）がむずかしいです。

日本語で主に難しいと感（かん）じるのは、単語です。

たくさんの言葉があるからです！

そして、特にむずかしいのは一つの行動（こうどう）についていろいろな言い方があるときです。

たとえば、着る、はく、被る、はめる、かける、身につける、は全て（すべて）”to wear” という意味（いみ）です。

とてもややこしいです。

私にとってにほんごは明らか（あきらか）に英語や歴史や文学より難しいです。

けれど、私にとって、日本語を習うのは数学よりは簡単です。
