so i finished my improv class!
i heart improv.
it seems as it has been my life the last few months.
seeing shows nearly every night, performing couple times a week at open jam type shows, learning improv, eating improv, sleeping improv, etc.
the class really helped open me up more and introduce me to this awesome world of which i really want to be a part of.
and sure, thinking that i can use this as an avenue on my way to being some sort of actor/writer/performer could be a pipedream...
but what's life without a dream?
it's a goal, something to strive for, something i feel like i haven't had in awhile.
i've been wondering what i want to do with myself, with my job, my life, etc...
people always ask me what i love to do, what i enjoy doing and my answers always been, "i don't know.", because i never really felt like i did.
but now i can say i enjoy performing, i enjoy creating something from nothing, and want to improve myself here and grow to create even better.
what comes of this, who knows.
if i end up just meeting lots of neat people and having fun, awesome.
if i end up coming upon some sweet opportunities, even better.
i just know i'm going to enjoy it no matter what.
my class show was SO good, i was nervous, worried that we wouldn't pull it together.
silly me, because we did!
before the show my lovely instructor, the always funny, Lennon Parham split us up into 2 groups...
my group, the high fives!, went first!
the show started with us getting a suggestion from the crowd and 3 members stepping out and doing a monologue.
i ran out and did our first!
i wound up dong 3 scenes, which ended up all featuring me and mike in recurring characters, something no one else did, so it was fun.
so much fun.
the high fives! scored big time.
i even had people come up to me i don't know days later telling me they saw the show and complimented me on my performance.
i want to do this, so i am.
things i want.
-a 201 class with charlie sanders.
-a sketch writing 101 class with.
-higher pay.
-afterwards, a roommate.
-200k on ms pac man.
and also, a dedicated blog somewhere.
any advice?
