Make Mistakes

Hi Everyone!

I have another story to start this with. I was driving to the library and I broke the brakes of the car. I made a mistake... so now I can get to the room of good stuff- that's correct, right, Ian?
Everyday is better than the last. I remember sitting there yesterday thinking, "the reason I can't do a tongue twister is because I can't remember." The real reason I can't do a tongue twister is because if you practice everyday you get better. Duh!

The Shakespeare lecture was amazing. Ian Finley has acheived two things: I learned more about Shakespeare than I have learned in the past three years. I hate ALL MY ENGLISH TEACHERS. Way to go! But really, I'm so angry! They kept telling us "when he changes the punctuation/spelling/rhythym/rhyme it means something!" and there were no examples. We explicated the Ophelia text and it was like... I saw the light. Thank you!

The blocking was good, I loved watching and got some really good ideas. I can't wait to get to work tommorow and try somethings, or at least get to work with the text again. Props to the seductive Richard scene, which looks amazing on first blocking. Now, I must join the bandwagon and apologize for sticking with people I knew. I happened to know and enjoy the company of a lot of the people in the camp, prior to doing the camp. I will branch out tommorow, like a large oak tree!

Love,
Julia
