Life's Little Pleasures
It’s been a quiet day for the likes of me this lovely Tuesday afternoon. I decided last night I would get up early so I could grab some coffee before my acting class. Why? Well, when you know extreme amounts of stress are about to crumble on top of you in a matter of days you learn to appreciate the small little pleasures in life. I nearly missed the date I made for myself by hitting that cursed snooze button but managed to still leave with enough to time to grab a Grande Vanilla Cream Frapichino at the book store upstairs before my class started. Mmmmmmmmmmmmm sweeeeeeeeeeeeet vanilllllllla gooooooooooooooodness. *drools* Soooo worth the early morning wake up call. ^_~
Everyone was dragging their feet this morning. I got in right at 9:30 to discover only 6 people sitting down. LOL Rehearsals must be wiping everyone out. Phillip, my director, kept us for an extra 45 minutes for notes. I didn’t get home till 11:00. Lucky for me, I didn’t have much homework to get done. We ran through the entire show. I can’t wait to FINALLY rehearse in the main stage. We have our big tech weekend this week so everything will finally be completed. Should be quite exciting. I am sick of the black box, everyone is I think. The cast had a minor focus problem last night but as for the principle cast, Phillip seems pleased. He is only giving us minor notes, easily fixed. It’s a little unnerving to see the man actually being more supportive. I guess the show is coming together. I can’t believe we open in less then two weeks. *Gulps* Every time some one reminds the cast I get all jittery and excited! Hee hee. Nerves I guess. I’ve never had a principle role before in a show like this. This is my chance to finally show what I can do, you know? I’m really excited to finally be in a role this size but at the same time I’m really anxious about it. I hope everything runs smoothly. I get my hair dyed tomorrow. Come this time you will be seeing me a much brighter blonde. I’m little nervous. I hope I like it. You guys know how I am with change….I….well…..let’s just say it takes me a while to get used to big changes. ^_^
I’m at work at the moment, telling myself I really need to get to my homework. I have a journal for acting due next Tuesday. Yes, the same one as before. Procrastination wins again. lol. I shall leave you with the words I learned I from my acting text book, “The Challenge for the Actor.” By the late Uta Hagen. In this text she gave an inspiring quote from the great George Bernard Shaw:
“This is true joy in life, being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one; being a force of nature instead of a feverish, selfish little clod of ailments and grievances, complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy. I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the whole community and as long as I live, it is my privilege to do it for what I can. I want to be thoroughly used up when I die, for the harder I work, the more I live. I rejoice in life for its own sake. Life is no brief candle to me. It is a sort of splendid torch which I have got hold of for the moment and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations.” Chapter two, page 29.
You have an entrancing kiss~ the kind that leaves
your partner bedazzled and maybe even feeling
he/she is dreaming. Quite effective; the kiss
that never lessens and always blows your
partner away like the first time.
What kind of kiss are you?
