Today, I went to this big thing called Shakespeare Festival, which is exactly what it sounds like. I've been preparing for it for weeks, a group of other students and I busting our butts making costumes and doing a buttload of research. Well, it all came together today. I picked up some of the other students and we drove to a high school a little ways into the city, and we gathered our stuff and went to our presentation room for to, well, present.

What we had:

-My own self as a Neolithic Celtic King Lear
-One of my partners as a Neolithic Celtic Fool
-Trifold and binder filled chock full of clothing, design, etc. info.

I was parading around in that costume all day long. It had a big green cloak, a big wig, and most of all, a super cool beard. And the funny thing? Nobody knew who I was supposed to be, and they kept calling me a bunch of different stuff! XD

Here's what they called me:
-Gandalf
-Jesus(?!)
-Hagrid
-Moses(?!?)
-Obi-Wan Kenobi(!?!?!?!)

And at the awards ceremony (I didn't win anything, but this was just as good), everyone was cheering for me as I went up on stage to present my costume! They were cheering for me! They even called me "Gandalf" again! And before that, everyone was saying how much they liked my stuff! ;w; I just felt so happy being praised so much for all my hard work... I just... man. This was the best day ever.
