"Bang!" goes another kanga on the bonnet of the van/ see the light ram through the gaps in the land/ many an Aborigine's mistaken for a tree/ Til' you near him on the motorway and the tree begins/ to breathe/ Coming in with the golden light/ In the morning/ Coming in with the golden light/ Is the New Man/ Coming in with the golden light/ Is my dented van/ Woomera. "Dree-ee-ee-ee-ee- A-a-a-a-a- M-m-m-m-m- Ti-ti-ti-ti-ti- I-i-i-i-i- Me-me-me-me-me,"

Speech Exercise #33: "Her First Rehearsal"

It is the first day of rehearsal. I am looking over the schedule and realize that I am also doing a film at the same time. I am not sure if the timing is going to work out. I have a soccer game to play on Saturday morning according to my calendar.

The girl who is playing the ingenue is heavy and wearing a blonde wig. It's strange that she has her own wig and has worn it to the first rehearsal, but I figure to each his own. The director looks like my fencing instructor from acting school.

There are pictures of my high school on the walls. I see my class and I notice Penelope. I wish I knew what happened to her. I can't figure out what they are doing there, or what they have to do with the play. I don't know if I can balance all of this, but I am determined to make it work and push through.

I am sitting on a bicycle in the middle of the rehearsal hall, waiting for it all to begin.
