Yay

Grade: 100
Made some last minute touch-ups to the lights for Bright Obvious. Put some gels, made them narrower... Blahblahblah. Then I had a battle with the microphones, trying to get them to work. In the end, I lost. I am currently tending to my wounds.

Also, I know it's 3:20am. Shut up, I'm going to bed now.

Shake your bootie

Grade: 100
Cleaned the auditorium today. Acted like a douchebag to Hopey. Gave her hugs and told her she was great. Called Matt an amateur who's too cool to spike his set because he remembers things. Overall, very productive day.

Opinionation Operation

Grade: 100
Didn't do much today... Worked my lines for a little while. Then read 11,002 Things To Be Miserable About. What an... interesting book. I don't know what else to write. There is nothing else to write. Except, of course...

LOVE ALWAYS,

Life is a fight

Grade: 100
I deserve a 100 for working on moments... Again? Sorta. Today it was more full-on though. I think I'm doing an okay job of playing around with my character... I haven't been called out yet. At least not to the same degree as Hopey... Poor Hopey.

Taking Love To the Limit,

Blocked my first scene FINALLY! I think I deserve a 100 because I'm playing around with the character and making choices and stuff. It's going to be an interesting performance.

Cut the kitchen

Grade: 100
Workshop with Atlantic Theatre Company... Well, it was interesting. There were some parts I agreed with and others I didn't. I liked the process but I hate how vague the objectives have to be. "To get someone to see the light." Too heady and vague. I need more concise objectives in order for it to work for me. I enjoyed the workshop though.

Love Is More Than Just A Game For Two Always,

I'm pleasant

Grade: 100
We saw Cripple of Inishmaan today... Good stuff. Participated in the post-show discussion.... Behaved myself on NJ Transit... Didn't get my car towed for parking in a school zone... I deserve a 100.

Suze Orman is angry

Grade: 100
Hurrah for finishing Masonite and trying to figure out the damned orchestra lights. I also mapped out the chain link fence (or started to at least...) with Matt. I worked the whole time and learned some new stuff about the house lights... So, that's good. Always good to keep learning.

Alive with the glory of love,

Forest music

Grade: 100
I'm tired. I deserve a 100 for participating in the workshop with Rachel. Stella Adler has an interesting method. I think I'm gonna look more into it. Anyway, we didn't do much else, so I don't have much else to write about. I stayed after school and "mentored" Danielle in stage managing... Oh boy.

Candy Island

Grade: 100
I deserve a 100 today for getting the cyc out of the way. Matt and I made a pretty nifty little rig to bring things up and down that annoying (and dirty) balcony/catwalk/whatever it is. Then we laid Masonite and were being too anal for our own good. I was working the whole time... I deserve a 100, please and thank you.

Love
Always,

Aw, Hope just told me I'm a good writer

Grade: 100
Stayed after today for the Bright Obvious rehearsal. In school, we started prepping for Midsummer. I'm very excited about it. I started writing the press release and at home I started to record a rough copy of something I composed. I have no idea what it could be used for, but it's kinda dark. And has reverb. So maybe like... a cave. Yes, a cave. I don't care if there's no cave in Midsummer.

Always Love,
Daniel Baker
