Another day another twist of events.

Ever had one of those days when suddenly everything that you look forward to has suddenly changed; possibly to be replaced by something far better and possibly to be replaced by a horrible lifetime of unpleasantries? You haven't? Oh....neither have I.

At any rate- History exam is tomorrow, I'm not studying for it because I have better things to do with my time (such as sleep and scribble). I'll trust my hand to fate as per usual, fate tends to take care of me so I'll see how things go.

For some reason I have had the song "Red and Black" stuck in my head for most of today....

(Marius enters)
Marius, you're late.
JOLY
What's wrong today?
You look as if you've seen a ghost.

GRANTAIRE
Some wine and say what's going on!

MARIUS
A ghost you say... a ghost maybe
She was just like a ghost to me
One minute there, and she was gone!

GRANTAIRE
I am agog!
I am aghast!
Is Marius in love at last?
I've never heard him `ooh' and `aah'
You talk of battles to be won
And here he comes like Don Ju-an
It's better than an o-per-a!

ENJOLRAS
It is time for us all
To decide who we are
Do we fight for the right
To a night at the opera now?
Have you asked of yourselves
What's the price you might pay?
Is it simply a game
For rich young boys to play?
The color of the world
Is changing day by day...
Red - the blood of angry men!
Black - the dark of ages past!
Red - a world about to dawn!
Black - the night that ends at last!

MARIUS
Had you been there tonight
You might know how it feels
To be struck to the bone
In a moment of breathless delight!
Had you been there tonight
You might also have known
How the world may be changed
In just one burst of light!
And what was right seems wrong
And what was wrong seems right!

GRANTAIRE
Red...

MARIUS
I feel my soul on fire!

GRANTAIRE
Black...

MARIUS
My world if she's not there!

ALL
Red...

MARIUS
The color of desire!

ALL
Black...

MARIUS
The color of despair!


Cheers
