February in AIS 22/02/2017 Dear readers, karaspartyideas.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/26645_348398401917482_1140417228_n_600x400.jpg. static1.squarespace.com/static/53ec399be4b055c79804ae64/t/55695b14e4b0c65b2fceae45/1432967968481/. Dear readers, Is time of the good things and the bad things about what is happening this week. This week, there was no real bad news ( except for the fact that I have a ton of homework to do) everything was good. The good thing is that there is this beautiful musical play which occur on Friday and Saturday and that is called the Wizard of Oz. Even though this is a good event in the school there is the Valentine’s Dance that is even better. At the beginning I thought there was nothing happening in the school this but I was wrong when I heard about the musical and the Dance. Editor, Oscar Thielan

What about a little Interview I took this interview because I have a friend that who is working hard for musical, so I wonder how she feels. Q. Why are you performing for the musical “Wizard of Oz?” Because my teacher told me to do it. Q. How long did it take you to memorize all the script? 2~3days Q. Have you ever performed before? No I haven't. Q. Don’t you feel shy in front of people? No, never. Q. How many times did you practice at all? As many time as I needed, until I got good.

Q. Which character are you? Monkey, which is a soldier in musical. Q. What do you think about this musical? Good, because I never had this kind of musical before. Q. Have you got any trouble while you were preparing? Yes, I didn't follow teacher’s directions. Q. Weren't you feel tired when you need to come to school for a lots of time even on Saturdays? No, it was fun for me to go to school because of my friend. Q. Were you in trouble by speaking English because you are in I.E. class so you didn’t know some emotions or actions that you need to do? Yes. I had problems with words that I don't know so I needed lot of help. Q. Do you think it’ll be a good musical? Yes! Conclusion: My goal is to inform others how fun, how interesting life of the cast is, so next time many people can try, to make people feel brave by performing on musical. Interviewer: Hey Rin Lee
