No Stories

Hi Everyone!

Today was really great in terms of class. I loved all the improv games and I realized what I didn't like improv games when I played them and sometimes they left a bad aftertaste. It was all the CONFLICT. It wasn't going anywhere and after a while the conflict was not funny. This realization basically changed the way I see improv right now. I'm glad I could imagine a giant taxidermed stag on the ceiling.

I wasn't all there at the run-through and I'm sorry about that. I'm at the point with my lines where I basically know them... but not in order haha. So, you give me just a couple words and I'll tell you the next couple lines. But a whole functional monologue? Never! So I'm in the process of learning those and it's really frustrating. I'm also playing around with character a bit. Hopefully I'll be mentally present on monday.

I won't be here tomorrow- or today, I suppose. I'm going to the beach with the swim team. My Uta Hagen will be here when I return from the beach friday night. (Sorry Ian- can I have the gold for procrastination?) I plan to do it on the extremely boring car ride inbetween learning AP Bio terms (I got my schedule!) and studying/dissecting lines. With three hours- who knows what else I could do? All these activities will make my life less boring!

Hopefully I'll return in one peice from this beach adventure.

Love,
Julia

P.S. There is a fly in my room.

P.S.S. I am extremely feeling guilty about not coming tomorrow. I mean, I want to be in two places so badly. That's all.

P.S.S.S. I left many things at the theatre (navy blue camera/notebook)
