Cruelty to Foreigners

As previously stated, somehow I ended up taking acting/theater classes. Thus, it should of no surprise that we read through a play the other day. 

Sure enough, the play was in Finnish. Sure enough, they gave me a speaking part. Apparently, there was a joke in the play that the character I portrayed didn't understand Finnish. Talk about cruel irony. I was told I had good pronunciation however- despite the fact I had no idea what I was saying. 

Of course, the title is a jest- I'm not actually complaining. How could I complain, I had more a of speaking role than some of the other kids, and they speak the language.
