Goia

WOW ok so we got some cool stuff in yesterday- Leer, damn what a book. Made me feel like complete shit about life. The thing i found most interesting however was something i thought (even though Matt will take credit for this....I thought it before you said it Matt!) ----that everyone who commented on what they thought leer was about took their interpretation from things going on in their lives. I cant really speak for anyone else but i know my interpretation (that the theme in Leer was that life shits on you sometimes) came from the crap storm of work that is called JR year. It makes perfect sense that my interpretation came from what i was going through at that particular time in my life. Everything is an autobiography.

my vlog/dance

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOVhU6nY-Bg -vlog

Dancing wow lots of fun, we got to do some hip hop. shit it was fast. really fast, really, really, really fast. Man that guy has skill. Although i have to say that the faster it got the more determined i was to try and perfect it. It became a challenge and i love challenges. I have to work on flexibility, although it is unfair to compare myself to the instructor who has been doing flexibility for his whole life and to the girls in my class who are....anatomically different then me. But that isn't an excuse. I have lots of schtuff to accomplish. LETS GO!

rob workshop

yesterday we had a workshop with the famous Rob Goia. In this workshop we unpacked various monologues from the play King Leer. It was very interesting to learn the various ways to really delve into the character to see what he or she was thinking. Using Rob's methods i found it easier to not only decipher the monologue's meaning but also realized that using his methods, i realized the various methods Shakespeare used to convey emotion as well as thoughts

workshops again

DANCING! WOOT WOOT it is about time we got a dancing workshop in! It was so much fun! I leaned how to (properly) pirouette! which was nice. Then, the best part we got to learn a dance and danced to "live in living color" from Catch Me If You Can which was such an amazing song and the dance was so addicting i found myself doing it all through rehearsal!
