abotu the play

i enjoyed the play. it was a lot different than i thought it was going to be. I am interested in talkin abut it today in class to see how others percevied it. I have a couple questions and they may be the same or different as others inthe class. I am upset that i will be missing class again on thursday and quite frankly IM SICK OF IT!... we have to go back up to the Upper pennisula for basketball bc we made the semi finals for the GLIAC. I am happy that we made it but i just wish it wasnt soooo far away, but i guess pickers cant be choosers... so LETS GO AU!

See you all in class :)
well the first time I tried posting it didn't work so here is try number two.....The eating exercise is the hardest one we have done so far in my opinion...adding a conversation was harder because well I didn't want to talk, I wanted to eat, I was too focused I guess. And I did eat a pineapple and pepperoni pizza at some point and time after this exercise and I ate somewhat like I acted but not completely, I did not take in account the temperature of the food

Eating Exercise

In the last class, when we had to eat and carry on a conversation, I had a difficult time. It was hard to concentrate on being believeable while eating but then adding in the conversation made it even harder. I had to concentrate on eating and think about what I was going to say next. I think that this class will get even more interesting once we add in more factors and the exercises get harder. I am excited to see what is to come.

Improvement

i found thursday's exercise to be quite fun and also funny. from what i observed, i feel that everyone that went has made major improvement in their acting skills thus far, esp since the last time we did an eating exercise and we even had to talk this time. being able to talk n have conversations now has boosted the difficulty level up a tad but at the sametime has made the class more exciting and interesting and allowing us to take our acting skills to the next step. cant wait to see wat we have coming up w/in the next few classes!!!

Play

I went to see the play this past thursday. I really enjoyed it despite the fact that I was extremely depressed the rest of the night to the point where I wanted to just go back and sleep the rest of the night. It was different to watch a play where the main character never left the stage. I can only imagine how hard it must have been to memorize all of those lines. It was also different to see that there were very few props used and very little scenery. This allowed me to envision the scenery on my own rather than how the set designer wanted it to be. It reminded me of our exercises in class such as the eating exercises where we had no props and while watching we had to envision the "props" so it was nice to actually see this happening in a play.

so much to say

I loved the play! It was one of the only plays i have seen that actually made me cry, which is sad but wonderful. I was a bit unsure of what to expect but it was just really good. i dont want to say to much though because i dont want to ruin my paper for you.

I cant say much because i have been watching the office for the last 40 hours and my mind is gone. I cant wait until tomorrow. Class will be fantasic. And it will be nice to not just watch the same show.

ALSO, it was gorgeous outside today. it was the perfert weather. And i loved it.

Hooray

So I saw the play over the weekend and I liked it. Other than that not a whole lot going on. As for class it's fairly hard to eat and talk at the same time. And for some reason I do put weird emphasis on words as I talk. As it was said like a 30's detective movie but it's fun and not gonna stop doing it in normal life. As for the "face taking" exercise we did last week it was really hard to figure out how to do it. I also think it's gonna be hard the next time we do it. I don't want to do it again. that applies to every time.
