Extraordinary, but No One There to See So on opening night no one that was remotely close to me was even there. And the thing is, I realized in my third or fourth rehearsal that I was good at this acting thing. I felt the part. I understood the words I spoke. I could read the lines as if they were coming from my brain and my heart. And on opening night, I can honestly say I knew I was going to b..

Part 7 Miranda I forgot that I might see So many beautiful things I forgot that I might need To find out what life could bring —Andain, "Beautiful Things" 나는 내가 볼 수 있다는 걸 잊었어 너무나 많은 아름다운 것들 나는 내가 필요한 걸 잊었어 삶이 가져다주는 것이 무엇인지 찾기 위해 Camp Lies I mean, I've kind of earned the right to think of him as my brother. 내 말은 난 그를 동생 생각할 권리가 있다는 것이다. School I hardly saw Via at school this year, and when I did ..

Understudy "Why do they call it understudy?" I repeated. "It's what they call someone who replaces an actor if he can't perform for some reason, " answered Mom. " 왜 그들은 understudy라고 불러요? 나는 되물었다. " 어떤 이유로 배우가 연기를 할 수 없을 때 그를 배우를 대신하는 사람을 그렇게 부른단다. "라고 엄마는 대답했다. A little later in the play, a character named Mrs. Webb calls out for her daughter, Emily. I knew from the program that that was the par..

오늘은 비가 내리는 월요일입니다. 아침마다 영어 메일 받는 곳에서 저의 기분에 딱인 글귀가 있어서, 이 것부터 표현 적어 봅니다. 아마도 모든 직장인들에게 필수 표현 일 것 같아요. 혹시 모르니 속마음으로! 마스크 쓰고 입모양만으로 연습해보아요. I just got to work and want to go back home. 출근했는데 퇴근하고 싶다. Goodbye "This isn't about you!" she yelled. "Not everything in the world is about you, Auggie. Now hurry up. Daisy's sick. Mom's taking her to the emergency vet. Come say goodbye." "이번엔 너에 대한 거 아니야!" ..

Hearing Brightly How can I describe what I heard when the doctor turned on my hearing aids? Or what I didn't hear? It's too hard to think of words. The ocean just wasn't living inside my head anymore. It was gone. I could hear sounds like shiny lights in my brain. It was like when you're in a room where one of the lightbulbs on the ceiling isn't working, but you don't realize how dark it is unti..

벌써 한 달이 넘었는데 마침 다시 August시점 이야기를 읽게 되었습니다. 주인공이라 그런지 어떤 마음인지 제일 궁금하고 가장 흥미로운 부분입니다. Jack과 화해 후에 또 무슨 일이 있을지 궁금하네요. 영화에서도 유난히 귀여웠던 두 사람의 우정 더 자세히 읽어보겠습니다. Part Six August What a piece of work is a man! how noble in reason! how infinite in faculty! in form and moving how express and admirable! in action how like an angel! in apprehension how like a god! the beauty of the world!... —Shakespeare, Ha..

Rehearsal The play is taking up most of my time as we get closer to opening night. 연극 막이 오를 시간이 가까워질수록 나의 대부분의 시간을 썼다. Whenever i need a second to remember my next line, i just start playing a little "soldier's joy" on my fiddle and it buys me some time. 나의 다음 대사가 생각이 생각나지 않을 때마다 나는 "soldier's joy" 연주를 시작해서 약간의 시간을 번다. Let's face it, she continues the universe was not kind to auggie pullman. 현실을..

Olivia's Brother I like to think I'm able to hide my surprise. I hope I do. surprise is one of those emotionsthat can be hard to fake, though, whether you're trying to look surprised when you're not or trying to not look surprised when you are. 내가 놀란 것을 숨겼으면 좋았을 것 같다. 나도 그러고 싶다. 놀라는 것도 여러 감정중에 하나이고, 그걸 숨기기는 어렵다고 생각한다. 네가 놀란 것을 숨기려고 한다면 네가 놀라지 않거나 놀라지 않아 보여야 한다. I'm not freaked out or scared. I s..

Sides "So here are the official sides, " said Summer at lunch the next day. She pulled out a folded piece of loose-leaf paper and opened it. It had three columns of names. "여기 공식적으로 편 나눈 거야" Summer가 다음날 점심시간에 이야기했다. 그녀는 잎사귀 같은 종이를 꺼내 열었다. 거기엔 3줄로 이름이 나눠 있었다. He said this in such a funny way that the milk I was drinking came out my nose when I laughed which made us all totally crack up. 그는 내가 마시던..
