I’m back now…different yet again

My trip to Greece was one of those experiences which becomes a nostalgic memory even as you live the very moment that you know years later you will still want to be present in. I don’t believe I can do my time justice with the barely adequete command of the English language but I’d like to say how unbelievably fantastic it was to go to the places I did, with the people I went with.
Highlights of the trip would have to include my ‘Lornarian Oration’ at Epidauros in which I spoke to the crowds of milling tourists as well as my classmates about the wonders of Lorna’s teamaking abilities, The Jellyworm Iliad (soon to appear on Youtube) Me and Rob’s 10 minute Bottom sketch which attracted the attention of a multitude of tourists and earned us a round of applause that I can still hear when it is quiet enough and lastly the experience I had in the Agora, the comfortable feeling of being just another person in a huge procession of individuals to walk the face of this earth, subject to the same desires, the same dreams, no peculiarity but yet another man with another life to lead.
I will of course get some pictures up, I have some wonderful shots of the Acropolis, Delphi, Epidauros, Acro-Corinth and Mycenae.
The whole experience has brought with it new ideas and new views on particular circumstances but the overall feeling is one of a new sense of confidence, perhaps gained through my thespian activities or elsewhere. With it comes a sense of being more comfortable with my emotive personality, I’m glad to be me, glad to have the range and depth of feeling that I do even it sometimes it is deabilitating and damaging such feelings make you feel so alive.
I have been on a bit of a News blackout and so am doing my best to catch up with events as well as press ahead with my revision and face up to the challenge of being a columnist for the Portsmouth Youth Magazine so if I’m quiet for a while, I’ve got my reasons.
