Today, we not only read the drama script, but also practiced acting the characters.
Since morning, Mrs. Rina has explained the basic concepts of drama, starting from the structure of the script to the right acting techniques.
We were divided into several groups and given different scripts. My group got a comedy drama script. At first, I felt awkward because the dialogue was quite fast and full of humor that had to be presented with the right expressions. However, with Mrs. Rina's guidance, we started to get used to it and started to laugh together during the practice.
Mrs. Rina was very patient in correcting us one by one. She not only taught us basic techniques, but also reminded us to delve deeper into the characters we played. “Try to feel like the character, not just memorize the words,” said Mrs. Rina in a soft but meaningful voice.
In addition to learning acting techniques, we were also asked to analyze each scene. It was interesting because we could see how each word in the script could have a big influence on the storyline. After the practice, Mrs. Rina invited us to discuss what we learned today. It turns out that drama is not just about acting, but also about understanding other people's feelings and how we can convey the message strongly to the audience.
Today was very fun and inspiring. I feel more interested in exploring the world of drama. Who knows, one day I can act on a bigger stage. Thank you, Mrs. Rina, for giving us the opportunity to learn many things in this lesson.
Until tomorrow, I will practice even harder. Hopefully tomorrow will be better!
After finishing studying drama, we all went to the school prayer room to perform Dzuhur prayer in congregation. Praying in congregation at school is always a moment that I look forward to. The calm and solemn atmosphere makes my heart feel more peaceful. We reminded each other to maintain solemnity, and after the prayer, Mrs. Rina, who also joined, gave a short sermon reminding us to always maintain worship, even when busy studying.
After the prayer, we immediately continued the social visit activity that had been planned previously. This activity is part of our learning about social awareness and how to provide benefits to others. This time, we visited an orphanage not far from the school. There, we brought some donations such as used clothes that were still suitable for use, snacks, and toys for the children at the orphanage.
At the orphanage, a warm and smiling atmosphere greeted our arrival. The children who live at the orphanage welcomed us happily. We played with them, joked around, and even helped them study. There was one cute little girl, named Nia, who was very happy to receive a new doll from us. Seeing the happiness on their faces, I felt very touched.
They told us about the challenges they face, and we felt even more motivated to do small things that could help them. Although the visit was short, I felt like I learned a lot of valuable life lessons.
Finally, in the afternoon, we returned to school with hearts full of gratitude. The day felt so complete, starting from learning a fun drama, praying in congregation that calmed our hearts, to a social visit that opened our eyes to the importance of helping each other.
I feel very grateful to have experienced all of this. Hopefully in the future, I can continue to provide benefits, no matter how small.
