November 19th

Wow. It's been quite a day. No rehearsal, but in it's place, running a class! Of freshman! I only kid. The youngins were great, and I only had two moments of, "I may slash some throats." But yea, we did a 10 minute SOC (which their wrists hated me for) and then we read them, and I got Deshauna to read hers. A bit of a breakthrough, I think. After that we did a little improve class. We started with the freeze scene game, but that got too loud (if they complain about that tomorrow, my bad), so then we moved onto bus stop. I noticed that Ari is really a clown, John has a great sense of character, and Lexii has great character as well. I also noticed that Veronika may have a serious problem being on stage as a character, because she had a serious problem staying with the scene. But then again, this may have been my fault cause I didn't explain the game all too well to them, but oh well, no serious harm done. If anything, making them add character could be step two of the exercise. Oh, and I finished the rep plot, which you should look at tomorrow, so I can get hanging for cleo, because she's gonna need a different light plot for her show in December. And this is all why I deserve a 100. Just to summerize and let me gloat a little bit, I took 15 freshies and did things with them by myself because all of the other seniors suck. Ass.

November 10th

Alright, so the last couple days have taught me quite a bit about both myself, and the thing that I want to do. Why one may ask? Because we've been teching for 2 days for this show and feel a little over my head. I'll be fine, and I'll pull through, but it's strange not having that buffer of a teacher, or me being a student between me and the professional that I'm working with. Cleo is trying to serve as that buffer, but I think her and Stuart have too much history for her to act in the same way. I'm not saying this is a bad thing, but it's new, and I can now say that I know how it feels to be thrown something and expected it to be completed 100% on my own.

But anywho, I deserve that 100 because of that situation I'm in above, and holding my own.

Oh, PS - That guy Brock, is actually really cool and really down to Earth. He really gets that things just don't appear at random, cough cough.
