jesus horatio christ.
hhahaha ok. so matt d from the dept.said "what is jesus' middle name anyway" after i said jesus h. christ once. and i laughed and i decided that it was horatio.
sorry to all those of you who feel ive taken the lords name in vain. please dont be offffended.
anyway so its been 2489318 years since i last updated, and if you recall my last entry i remember saying that i thought the next three weeks(the past three weeks) would busy and i would die. well i was right, except about the dying part obviously. but i nearly died. which makes the fact i DIDNT that much better. haaha. anyway so why i almost died. OMG theres so much of it.
i know you loyal readers will read all of this. and oh, i love you for it. comment if youre a loyal reader. i love you. :)
ok so first thing. i was in a scene from angels in america for my acting one final. first id like to comment on how im currently a little obsessed with it. i just love it, i read it first(BEST MOVE EVER) and it was amazing,i fell in love with it. it made me cry. i just felt like that characters in it were SO IN DEPTH and so developed and not 2 dimensional. such INTERESTING BELIEVABLE characters. i cant explain. it reminded me of rent, but i think it came before rent. and if so, it really paved the way PAVED THE WAY for it. i recommend it to anyone who likes theater in general. and to all those who liked rent. its a lot deeper than rent. jsut read it! so then i rented the movie. and al pacino played one of the darkest characters ive ever read, and did whati thought was a fabulous job. he was roy cohn. then the guy who was raoul in POTO was Joe, and he was exactly like i imagined joe. i was rather impressed. and he was supposed to be american so the fact he didnt have a lack of a french accent didnt bother me.(you would have had to be with me at POTO to get that) and i thought the guy who played prior was perfect. the guy who played belize was EXACTLY FUCKING WHAT I IMAGINED> i was so excited. i thought the girl who played harper, mary-louise parker was good. she did things differently thani would i have i think, but that doesnt mean she didnt do a good job. sometimes when people do things different than me i forget it doesnt mean they did a bad job. so i really watched her, and she was good. i didnt like the guy who played louis at all. and i recognize fully that we arent supposed to really enjoy his particular character, but i didnt like the guys performance. so for all of you who dont know the play i hope all that made you want to read it, rent the movie and either disagree or agree with me. twas my intention.
ok so wow i didnt mean to babble about AIA but jesus. its stuck in brain. i know at least elizabeth knows what im talking about. i miss you by the way. :) :(
Anyway. so i did my acting one final with a scene from that show, and it was good. i had a partner i was not looking forward to working with but he really surprised me. he said that i was a really good teacher. cause i really helped him with character work, i mean if he knows his character better he acts better and ive got more to work with. plus he was oblivious. he didnt read the play either, so he didnt KNOW i had to explain stuff. anyway the biggest news int hat regard was that he didnt show up the day before out final for our last rehearsal. so harry had to work with me, and being my prof and having a degree in directing we got so much done in that little time. so that was good. but theres this one line i say that starts with " if you walk out of here right now.." and i was supposed to say it with such force and anger that i stopped him with my voice, and harry said "im going to be really particular about THAT line and grade you heavily on THAT LINE" so i practiced. i was a little nervous. and neil, my parter, skipped like a page and we didnt even do that line. thank god i knew my cues SO WELL. or else would have been fucked. i just did the cue to the line he said, and we kept going, but we didnt even do that line. i wanted to do it and see what i got for it. oh well. harry was pissed, not at me. but wheni mentioned it to him he was like NOT A FAN. NOT HAPPY that line got skipped over.he said i did a good job catching that cue, and not making it obvious that we skipped stuff. he said he only noticed cause he was looking for it and he knew the script. no one else noticed. iw as proud of neil. he actually acted. this report was for you elizabeth. thanks for giving me a better outlook. i can bve a little pessimisstic sometimes....
oh and i didt he same scene for intro to theater final, and i did it wtih a different guy and he learned his lines in one hour. and it was decent.
so then i had this paper from HELL due for my film class. i could have thrust myself out the window. anyway. so i did it and worked late on it the night before. i printed it out the night before, thakn god. becaus the next morning my computer DIED. so i had to type it all out again, that sucked, but at least i still had the words i already wrote. i cant even, dont even want to, imagine what would have happened if i had decdied to print it out to edit the next day. i would have really thrown myself out the windwo. omgggg. so i thought that i was going to get like a 2 on that essay. i took the final, and he graded my essay(he gave me a weeks extension, so he only had mine to grade that day, and he had all the others done) and he was like "good paper" and withouth thinking because im likethat i aws like "REALLY??" and he chuckled and was like yeah, and i was like in my head DOH! and i was like "oh yeah, uh thanks. i tried really hard"
which i did. buti thought it was one of those try really hard and still suck things. BUT NOPE. so that was the exciting thing of the day. also i got a b- on a paper i was sure i was going to not get that high on. so FUCK YEAH!
oh and semester is OVER> im on breakkkkk for three weeks.
im pooped from all that. i know i had more to update. ill probably add to this later. or do another entry. thats only like 1/7 of what i wanted to type. but im tired.
