(I love picnik! I also need some new drama pictures... BAD!)
I am a part of this amazing group of about 20 young people. We call ourselves D.E.P.T.H. youth drama team. It stands for Directing Every Person To Him OR Dedicating Every Performance To Him. I'm not sure who came up with that, but it's really long.
I've been lending what small amount of talent I have to this group for almost 8 years. I came to a practice with Megan Picklesimer in the fall of 2001 and I fell in love. I remember the first drama I ever practiced. It was a spoken drama called "Sin Detector" or something like that. Megan Williamson and Patrick Galloway were in it with me. Apparently Megan was sinful and Patrick and I couldn't let her in our church or something. It was really silly.
Since then, we've kind of drifted from spoken drama and focused more on human videos. During the 2004 year, we learn SO many new dramas and did workshops and it's really paid off because we're still using those. For the last month, I've been really bored at practices. Let's just be honest. I've been doing and seeing the same dramas for like 5 years and I was getting pretty desensitized to them.
However, at practice last night, my hope was renewed! Ralphie, our fearless leader, told us that we're reinventing some old ones to have new meanings and incorporating new people and I must say, I'm really proud. We changed around an old favorite that I like to call "The Baby Mama Drama"; others call it "The Dead Baby Drama". I wont give it away, but I will tell you that Caleb and I are the parents in the drama. That should keep the rumor mill going for a little while. :) Here is the song. It's "Made Me Glad" by Hillsong. I love this song!
Ralph was full of surprises last night! This is another oldy but goody that is getting a face lift. I love it. I'm a demon in this one, and I'm SO excited!
I'm also glad to read there will be some freshness added to the repertoire :-)
