Changing by Jayden Bartels

 Changing by Jayden Bartels:

I was 8 years old

I had a dream of who I could be

When I got old

But things have worked out differently

And now I don't know

Who I am and what I'm supposed to do

I'm a little confused

So maybe I'm changing and that's okay

If it's good or bad, well, either way

I know I can't pretend to stay the same

I've done that for too long and I'm the only one to blame, so

Let's move on, let's grow old

Let's see what this world has to hold

Maybe I'm not the same

But some things have to change

Don't be mad, please

But this has been something kept

Inside of me

And now it's time for it to be

Set free

It's all gonna be okay

Don't you worry, you'll see

So maybe I'm changing and that's okay

If it's good or bad, well, either way

I know I can't pretend to stay the same

I've done that for too long and I'm the only one to blame, so

Let's move on, let's grow old

Let's see what this world has to hold

Maybe I'm not the same

But some things have to change


Paper Rings by Taylor Swift:

The moon is high

Like your friends were the night that we first met

Went home and tried to stalk you on the internet

Now I've read all of the books beside your bed

The wine is cold

Like the shoulder that I gave you in the street

Cat and mouse for a month or two or three

Now I wake up in the night and watch you breathe

(Ayy)

Kiss me once 'cause you know I had a long night (Oh)

Kiss me twice 'cause it's gonna be alright (Uh)

Three times 'cause I waited my whole life (1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4)

I like shiny things, but I'd marry you with paper rings

Uh huh, that's right

Darling, you're the one I want, and

I hate accidents except when we went from friends to this

Uh huh, that's right

Darling, you're the one I want

In paper rings, in picture frames, in dirty dreams

Oh, you're the one I want

In the winter, in the icy outdoor pool

When you jumped in first, I went in too

I'm with you even if it makes me blue

Which takes me back

To the color that we painted your brother's wall

Honey, without all the exes, fights, and flaws

We wouldn't be standing here so tall, so

Kiss you once 'cause I know you had a long night (Oh)

Kiss you twice 'cause it's gonna be alright (Uh)

Three times 'cause you waited your whole life (1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4)

Ah


I like shiny things, but I'd marry you with paper rings

Uh huh, that's right

Darling, you're the one I want, and


I hate accidents except when we went from friends to this

Uh huh, that's right

Darling, you're the one I want


In paper rings, in picture frames, in dirty dreams

Oh, you're the one I want


I want to drive away with you


I want your complications too


I want your dreary Mondays


Wrap your arms around me, baby boy

I want to drive away with you


I want your complications too


I want your dreary Mondays


Wrap your arms around me, baby boy

Uh huh

 

I like shiny things, but I'd marry you with paper rings

Ah-ah, that's right, you're the one I want

 

I hate accidents except when we went from friends to this

Ah-ah, darling, you're the one I want

 

I like shiny things, but I'd marry you with paper rings

Uh huh, that's right

Darling, you're the one I want, and

 

I hate accidents except when we went from friends to this

Uh huh, that's right

Darling, you're the one I want

 

In paper rings, in picture frames, in all my dreams

You're the one I want

In paper rings, in picture frames, in all my dreams

Oh, you're the one I want


You're the one I want, one I want

You're the one I want, one I want

Movement Performance

  This project we did theater caused me to have a lot of emotions. After watching The Things I Know be True, we got to find song lyrics that connected to the emotions in the play. I just liked this because I love music and instead of finding random quotes I felt passionate about finding the right song. The big theme was about change in the play. When I thought about songs about change one song came to my head, Change by Jayden Bartels. Jaden Bartels has been my inspiration for a while now. I love this song because I get to hear her talk about how change is different and hard to deal with, I truly felt not alone in the same situation. She also expresses that change is ok in the end, which is meaningful for me. I knew to give off the same theme as the play so I chose the perfect part to do my movements performance to. Kamden was the first one to direct his lyrics and movement. We got to explore our own movements and thoughts to his skit. When it was my turn I was nervous to be too st...

Reflection to "You Are Not Okay"

     Our final piece was interesting. I personally imagined our piece in a different way. I liked the meaning we were trying to portray. As a person with a few mental health differences, it was nice to do a skit about something I have experienced. Since I could really imagine our skit myself,  I tend to be bossy and stubborn to a point that I don’t like it when my idea is not heard. I thought that it would be interesting to actually be circling the person in the middle and either at the same time or individually ask “are you ok?” while still being in the circle. I personally believe that going on the platforms made no sense. If we did go on the platform to show that the person in the middle feels that they are small in the world, they should also be tiny. I thought as the shortest person in the group it made more sense that it was me in the middle. I truly think that way the thought that they are a small part of the world can truly come to life. Also when we circle t...

Pipeline

 - interesting about how we got to watch Nya make her first voicemail then re-record it to show her real feelings with her stating her emotions - I am confused about the beating in the script, what is it? - punctuation is repeated - connection between O and Nya through white board is interesting - poem equal symbolism - slang used often - confused by slash - powerful in relationship between parents and children and. How parents lives become kids baggage. - this is very impactful and moving - how they tended to have two scene at once and have cross over each other shows a lot of importance
