[05:29]  sweet [05:29]  Not bad [05:29]  o/ (ud) [05:29]  Yay, chat is back. [05:29]  Yay, now chat more with us ale (derp) [05:30]  Anyone here listen to God is an Astronaut? [05:31]  I think I shared them with you on spotify, mad [05:35] <Avalair> Hi Ire [05:35] <Ireithien> Hullo [05:35] <Ireithien> I want to say [05:35] <Ireithien> Bring Him Home is difficult. [05:35] <Ireithien> :P [05:35] <Avalair> Whats that? (derp) [05:36] <BlizardBrick> The Les Mis song? ;P [05:36] <Avalair> oh [05:36] <Avalair> Ire, remember when this was a thing [05:36] <Avalair> User blog:Ireithien/Star Wars Fans Unite Avatar Drive [05:37] <RusMan> I wasn't on the list ;~; [05:37] <Ireithien> The Les Mis song, yep. [05:37] <Ireithien> and yeah I do. :P [05:37] <Ireithien> we should do it again. :P [05:37] <RusMan> Jk I wasnt even active :P [05:37] <Ireithien> can someone musical explain to me what "being in the key of A" means? [05:38] <Avalair> singing according to the key of A [05:38] <RusMan> ^ [05:38] <BlizardBrick> ^ ;P [05:38] <Ireithien> Supposedly Bring Him Home is "in the key of A" but what the heck does that mean. To my limited musical knowledge, I know there are A notes which sound the same just higher/lower [05:38] <Ireithien> ok :P [05:38] <Avalair> if you have a piano or guitar, play the note A before you sing :P [05:38] <Ireithien> but the key of A doesn't tell me which A I'm singing... :P [05:39] <Avalair> in whatever octave your comfortable in [05:39] <Ireithien> DO KEYS EVEN HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH PITCH :P [05:39] <Ireithien> I assume they do : [05:39] <Avalair> Not necissarily [05:39] <Ireithien> * :P [05:39] <Ireithien> oh dang [05:39] <Ireithien> My life is a lie :P [05:39] <Avalair> you choose the pitch [05:39] <Ireithien> Gotcha. [05:39] <Ireithien> I'm mostly curious what the notation is for the original key [05:39] <Ireithien> like on the "on high" part in the first verse [05:40] <Ireithien> what note is that :P [05:40] <Avalair> The original is in F, it looks like [05:40] <Ireithien> Oh really? [05:40] <Avalair> A is easy to sing though [05:40] <Avalair> A and C are the two easiest keys in which to sing :P [05:41] <Ireithien> I wouldn't know. I mostly sing by ear. :P [05:41] <Avalair> yeah me too [05:41] <Avalair> I only know cause I play piano (derp) [05:41] <Ireithien> ah [05:41] <Nart L. Chipikal> i haven't had time for piano these days [05:41] <RusMan> I play the piano a bit as well (derp) [05:41] <Avalair> but if you listen to an A key or A chord, you should be able to figure out which note to start on [05:41] <Nart L. Chipikal> and then after this i have to worry about getting through this week [05:41] <Ireithien> Okay. :P [05:41] <RusMan> I need to practice more often tho [05:41] <Nart L. Chipikal> my parents are probably going to yell at me [05:41] <Avalair> yuck [05:42] <Avalair> i hate yelling [05:42] <RusMan> Also listening to coldplaaay [05:42] <RusMan> Ikr [05:42] <Ireithien> I really want to sing Bring Him Home or Music of the Night for my next audition [05:42] <RusMan> Parents arguing is the worst [05:42] <Nart L. Chipikal> i mean, last semester, i get that i didn't try as hard, but i'm trying to make that up [05:42] <RusMan> Or just yelling in general [05:42] <RusMan> MC :{P O/ [05:42] <Ireithien> I have the falsetto for it, mostly I worry about the belting. idk. [05:42] <Nart L. Chipikal> and i thought at that time "hey maybe i can be average" [05:42] <Ireithien> Bring Him Home, in a fashion, is easier than Music of the Night [05:42] <Man.city1> Woohooo [05:42] <Avalair> my grades are decent but i hate high school [05:43] <Man.city1> exams on Friday :p [05:43] <Avalair> im not doing well in english [05:43] <RusMan> Yay for you :p [05:43] <Avalair> i have a C average [05:43] <Nart L. Chipikal> but nope, i ended up falling behind, not doing a good amount of work, and the only thing i can do is overachieve [05:43] <Nart L. Chipikal> which i can't even do [05:43] <RusMan> Well everyone has strengths and weaknesses [05:43] <Man.city1> 2 weeks and a half and exams over and clubs :p [05:43] <Nart L. Chipikal> so my parents are going to yell at me later, i'm sure [05:43] <Avalair> aw nart [05:43] <Ireithien> Oh according to a music sheet I found the vocal range of Bring Him Home is E4-A5. Huh. [05:43] <Nart L. Chipikal> and i'll probably move the computer desk into the closet like last time because that was crazy [05:43] <Ireithien> That's lower than I was thinking actually. :P [05:44] <Man.city1> rus my brother [05:44] <Nart L. Chipikal> i think it'd be easier for me to not be an exist [05:44] <RusMan> Heyo [05:44] <Man.city1> all that is important is passing :p [05:44] <Aravis Tarkheena> but then we'd not have a Nart [05:44] <Aravis Tarkheena> and we need a Nart [05:44] <RusMan> Everyone needs the Nart [05:45] <Man.city1> That more or less means hat in 6 months I went down from a 90% to a 45% [05:45] <RusMan> Yikes [05:45] <Man.city1> i aim for about 60% tbh [05:45] <Nart L. Chipikal> i wish i could start over from last august [05:45] <Man.city1> and aim to get even higher in 2 modules [05:45] <Man.city1> coz if I had to get somehow a 35/50 in one exam [05:45] <RusMan> This semester I'm hoping for at least an A- average for all my classes combined [05:45] <Nart L. Chipikal> i'd still be angsty and bitter over some people, but maybe i could have kept all my grades up [05:46] <Man.city1> all I would need is 10 marks in the final to pass for exam [05:46] <Man.city1> *example [05:46] <Man.city1> aka I wouldn't study the whole module [05:46] <Man.city1> and focus on the others [05:46] <Psychos-R-Us> Ara did you have lunch yet? :P [05:47] <RusMan> I'm scared that if I dont have A's then my life will be ruined :P [05:47] <Man.city1> to get into uni I got all As :p [05:47] <RusMan> Like then I'll be homeless and not go to college etc (derp) [05:47] <Man.city1> its really not that hard :p [05:47] <Man.city1> just a word of advice [05:47] <Man.city1> if you have no idea what's going on in physics exam, you are doing well :p [05:48] <Nart L. Chipikal> me too rus [05:48] <Nart L. Chipikal> but i don't have as much anymore [05:48] <Nart L. Chipikal> so i'm just looking to pass [05:48] <Man.city1> exactly :p [05:48] <Ireithien> My problem is that I'm not a whiz at anything in school and I don't have an interest in virtually any of it. :P [05:48] <Man.city1> passing is good enough :p [05:49] <Nart L. Chipikal> and every time i mention having a d, my parents say that's failing [05:49] <Nart L. Chipikal> no matter what [05:49] <Nart L. Chipikal> which is bad, because i have two [05:49] <Ireithien> Of course there are more tolerable subjects like literature and history but I don't have more than a fleeting tolerance for those things. :P [05:49] <Man.city1> i would celebrate with a d one very thing right now tbh [05:49] <RusMan> Ye I know how that's like nart [05:49] <Nart L. Chipikal> history is painful [05:49] <Man.city1> id take it :p [05:49] <RusMan> Because I had D- on 3/4 of my math exams last year :P [05:49] <Psychos-R-Us> DOES ANYBODY HERE SEE MY AVVIE? :P [05:49] <Nart L. Chipikal> i wish i had been with my original teacher but nooo, my history teacher now is bleh [05:49] <Man.city1> or if they offer me Es in everything [05:49] <Avalair> no (zap) [05:49] <RusMan> So my life is probably ruined already (derp) [05:50] <Man.city1> id take it too :p [05:50] <Nart L. Chipikal> no, psycho [05:50] <Ireithien> The truth is I want to do Broadway but that's such a hard career field :/ [05:50] <Ireithien> Psychos: no [05:50] <Psychos-R-Us> I look like some dupe or something now :P [05:50] <Psychos-R-Us> Or a newbie :P [05:50] <RusMan> Try re-uploading it psy [05:50] <Psychos-R-Us> I can't, lost the flash drive :P [05:50] <Psychos-R-Us> brb [05:50] <Ireithien> The main problems I see with a theatre/musical theatre career are parents and the actual career itself. I didn't start doing this sort of thing till summer 2014 and so I don't have much experience [05:50] <RusMan> Find a new photo, save it to your comluter and upload it :p [05:50] <RusMan> *computer [05:51] <RusMan> Ire last year I did drama club :p [05:51] <Ireithien> I'm in one this year. [05:51] <Aravis Tarkheena> Aren't parents and careers just bad things to have in the same sentence [05:51] <Ireithien> it's awesome :P [05:51] <Ireithien> Yes, Aravis [05:51] <Nart L. Chipikal> not always [05:51] <RusMan> We won first place in readers' theatre for the junior high part :p [05:51] <Ireithien> I haven't admitted to many people that I actually want to pursue it. [05:51] <Man.city1> Yes Arabia :p [05:51] <Man.city1> *arabis [05:51] <Man.city1> *aravis [05:52] <Nart L. Chipikal> i think careers is a good conversation topic away from grades, even if just for a little time [05:52] <Aravis Tarkheena> Yeah, I'm basically in the same situation [05:52] <Nart L. Chipikal> but sometimes they put that together and ughhh [05:52] <Aravis Tarkheena> because it's only really recently that I found out what feels right for me [05:52] <Aravis Tarkheena> and it's not something I have a lot of experience in :P [05:52] <Ireithien> To be honest, I'm slightly handicapped as I've said before. I have three amateur shows plus a Christmas concert under my belt, and a half-semester of an acting class. No formal vocal training and zero dance experience. [05:52] <Ireithien> sooooooo [05:52] <Man.city1> whT is it [05:52] <Ireithien> :P [05:52] <Man.city1> vis [05:52] <Aravis Tarkheena> and it's a little frivolous and not necessary to life :P [05:53] <Ireithien> I don't know how realistic it is that in ten years I'll be at a place where I can actively do theatre professionally [05:53] <Aravis Tarkheena> so basically, exactly what my parents would think of a Broadway career :P [05:53] <Ireithien> haha :P [05:53] <Aravis Tarkheena> And also, very hard to get into. :P [05:53] <Ireithien> My parents prolly want me to be something solid, like a lawyer or a businessman or an engineer or a pastor [05:53] <Ireithien> not something "freelance" if you will [05:53] <Avalair> same ire [05:54] <Ireithien> What are you thinking of Aravis? [05:54] <Avalair> my parents want me to be a dcotr [05:54] <Avalair> *doctor [05:54] <Aravis Tarkheena> Something in the productions side of the fashion industry, as opposed to the selling side :P [05:54] <Ireithien> Also, aside from my parents, I'm personally conflicted as well. Like, a good chunk of me wants to have a somewhat normal suburban American life, you know. definitely have a family. a theatre career does not mesh with that :P [05:54] <RusMan> I keep saying I want to go into computers but sometimes I dont know honestly what I truly want to go into [05:54] <Ireithien> Ah that's cool! [05:54] <Strategus> hey o/ [05:54] <Aravis Tarkheena> My parents want me to "do what I want" but it had better be something good and Christian [05:55] <Ireithien> IKRRRRRRRR ARAVIS [05:55] <Ireithien> IKR [05:55] <Ireithien> ahh [05:55] <Ireithien> :P [05:55] <Ireithien> Rus: same minus computers [05:55] <Nart L. Chipikal> my parents are okay with me wanting to be an illustrator but suggest being a pharmacist [05:55] <Ireithien> Like [05:55] <Aravis Tarkheena> And my grandparents want all of their grandkids to be doctors and engineers and missionaries [05:55] <RusMan> Lucky you aravis [05:55] <Ireithien> for a long long time I HAD NO IDEA what to do [05:55] <Nart L. Chipikal> because apparently being a pharmacist is easy [05:55] <Aravis Tarkheena> and yeah, pharmacists :P [05:55] <Aravis Tarkheena> True, Nart [05:55] <RusMan> My mom only wants me to do whatever "god's will is for you" [05:55] <Nart L. Chipikal> like 5-6 people in my family are pharmacists [05:55] <Ireithien> I still don't really know what to do, but I definitely have theatre in the back of my mind. [05:55] <Avalair> do pharmacists get paid well [05:55] <RusMan> So something blah probably :p [05:55] <Aravis Tarkheena> yes [05:55] <Psychos-R-Us> Ara I see you're back from lunch (yk) [05:55] <Aravis Tarkheena> healthcare always gets paid well [05:55] <Aravis Tarkheena> uh huh [05:56] <Avalair> hmm [05:56] <Man.city1> You people look at money for a career? [05:56] <Ireithien> My thing is, my parents want me to go to college, and I want to to. But I just don't see myself wasting time and money on something I don't love, something like... business [05:56] <Aravis Tarkheena> hence: nutritionist [05:56] <Man.city1> you need to do something you enjoy [05:56] <Aravis Tarkheena> but I'm not into the science of that :P [05:56] <Man.city1> not what pays best [05:56] <Ireithien> like I want to go to college and study something AWESOME like... music! or vocals! or acting! :P [05:56] <Ireithien> things that interest me. [05:56] <Avalair> Well MC, what I look for is something I enjoy doing and get paid well for [05:56] <Ireithien> And IDK if that will line up with my parents' wishes [05:56] <Man.city1> do you really like pharmacy then? [05:56] <Avalair> I certainly wont be able to support a family by working at Seven-Eleven [05:56] <Avalair> :P [05:56] <Man.city1> imagine it was a minimum wage job [05:57] <Man.city1> would you still do it [05:57] <Man.city1> if yes, go for it [05:57] <Ireithien> And while a theatre career in terms of "Christian-ness" is better than a Hollywood career, it's still a bit... secular, for the Bible belt. [05:57] <Man.city1> if no, dont [05:57] <Ireithien> and while I personally don't have qualms necessarily being in Les Miserables or Phantom of the Opera or some such thing there would be shows I maybe wouldn't want to do, and either way I'd be judged by my parents and such [05:57] <Ireithien> aaaaaah [05:57] <Ireithien> :P [05:57] <Aravis Tarkheena> I get it, Ire [05:58] <Avalair> IDK, Ire, I personally dont see theatre conflicting with Christianity much [05:58] <Ireithien> I don't either [05:58] <Man.city1> it doesn't :l [05:58] <Aravis Tarkheena> I've already gotten talked to about vanity and inner beauty and such :P [05:58] <Man.city1> * :p [05:58] <Ireithien> I think some shows would, but overall theatre is probably better than movies. [05:58] <Avalair> Hollywood is a different story, though :P [05:58] <Avalair> Yeah [05:58] <Ireithien> I'm a better actor than singer, though, so I might have to consider film. gaaaaaaah [05:58] <Ireithien> idk [05:58] <Ireithien> Right now I'm thinking stage, we'll see what happens though. [05:58] <Man.city1> My friend Raph acted when he was in London and was ona. Show on bbc, he is still very religious and part of the uni bible group [05:59] <Ireithien> Nice. [05:59] <Avalair> Also, you do have some freedom, with being able to choose the part you try-out for etc. :P [05:59] <Ireithien> Yeah. [05:59] <A Walruse> what does christianity have to do with acting [05:59] <Psychos-R-Us> I was just gonna ask how you are, ara, since you don't like me (yk) [05:59] <Man.city1> nothing led [05:59] <Psychos-R-Us> And probably ask why you don't like me (yk) [05:59] <Aravis Tarkheena> Oh, aren't you jumping to conclusions [05:59] <Ireithien> There are some roles that would probably conflict with beliefs, at times, Walruse [05:59] <Ireithien> but it depends [05:59] <Avalair> ^ [05:59] <Aravis Tarkheena> I don't recall ever saying I don't like you. [06:00] <Avalair> If you are in a movie about summoning demons or being a demon, that kinda shows you are supporting that kind of stuff [06:00] <Aravis Tarkheena> But I'd rather not ruin the conversation going on in chat right now, so let's not go into that [06:00] <Nart L. Chipikal> three more days until parent-teacher conferences [06:00] <Nart L. Chipikal> ughhh [06:00] <Ireithien> If you ask me, a decent portion of what would be considered something you would never do in real life that conflicts with your beliefs is covered by being "in-character," but not all of it. [06:00] <Avalair> I agree [06:01] <Ireithien> So basically what I need to do if I want to be a Broadway actor one day is start taking voice. [06:01] <Ireithien> :P [06:02] <Psychos-R-Us> Then I suppose we're done now if you won't go further than that scrub :{P [06:02] <Avalair> Im also a little conflicted about going into theatre because of romance [06:02] <Ireithien> And at least take a semester or two of Dance for Actors or something [06:02] <Ireithien> Romance for you or romance for your character Ava? [06:02] <Avalair> both [06:02] <Ireithien> ah :P [06:02] <Ireithien> yeah [06:02] <Nart L. Chipikal> bleh, acting [06:02] <Nart L. Chipikal> bye bye [06:02] <Avalair> I mean, I certainly wouldnt try-out for a part that is very sexual and stuff [06:02] <Ireithien> right [06:02] <Ireithien> and see the tricky thing is the variety of shows [06:03] <Ireithien> You've got stuff like the Lion King [06:03] <Ireithien> which is obviously not bad... [06:03] <Ireithien> :P [06:03] <Aravis Tarkheena> I don't suck at dancing anymore, so I guess the lesson is to keep going even when you're awful :P [06:03] <Avalair> but even kissing... I want that to be between me and my wife, not between me and some girl I'm acting with [06:03] <Ireithien> then you have some in-between stuff like Les Miserables which, even if you're Marius, doesn't require direct physical actions, just acting romantic. :P [06:03] <Avalair> yeah [06:03] <Man.city1> Ava [06:03] <Man.city1> pso before you kiss the girl [06:03] <Man.city1> you need to be married? [06:04] <Avalair> I'd like to be, yes :P [06:04] <Ireithien> Again, thankfully on stage there isn't as much room for that sort of thing as in the film industry [06:04] <Man.city1> raph managed it [06:04] <Man.city1> it wasn't easy [06:04] <Avalair> yeah Ire [06:04] <Man.city1> 2.5 years going out with someone without kissing is hard [06:04] <Avalair> thats why I'd love to look into theatre [06:04] <Avalair> but singing is a struggle (derp) [06:05] <Ireithien> Yeeees.... [06:05] <Ireithien> The biggest struggle of them all for me is dance, but I feel like there's more wiggle room for that [06:05] <Aravis Tarkheena> https://41.media.tumblr.com/88ed300c78d5b7420d506cea0ca68122/tumblr_n0tda9Fx0I1tocofqo1_540.jpg yay [06:05] <Avalair> I'm great at dance, just not singing [06:05] <Avalair> Cute ara [06:05] <Avalair> did you draw that? [06:06] <Aravis Tarkheena> oh, no :P [06:06] <Aravis Tarkheena> can't draw :P [06:06] <Avalair> Oh (derp) [06:06] <Ireithien> I'm terrible at dance. Then again I've only learned two moves.
