Grade: 100
Today we barely did anything at all. But I deserve a 100 because I sat there and was a good little child while you worked with other people. Is that good enough? I hope.

Beep beep
Movement: 35 minutes
Running, yoga, strength with Wii Fit. I also did thirty pushups on my own.
Voice: 20 minutes
The usual dealings. I made up a catchy little melody today while doing warmups. I think I might make a full song out of it.
Script Work: 20 minutes
Given circumstances and began connotative analysis. Funderful.
Grade: 100
I deserve a 100 today because I was actually working the whole time with my group and I think we have the beginnings of a really nice costume design. I think the color palette that we came up with is going to look good.

Our true master... Magneto!
Movement: 20 minutes
Wii Fit... Yoga... strength... running... I think I pulled a muscle in my stomach. Ow.
Voice: 10 minutes
It hurts to sing. I definitely pulled a stomach muscle.
Denotative Analysis: 20 minutes
Finished up Act Four. Gonna work on Act Five tomorrow. Most of what Bottom says is pretty straightforward... I love this character. I'm not sure where to start on my given circumstances, so I haven't yet. But I've got bits and pieces of things that I know will be there.
Grade: 100
I hate it when they split us up. It's so annoying. I worked on some writing stuff... There wasn't much else to do.

Hey, you guys wanna hear a joke?
Grade: 100
We watched Waiting for Guffman today. It was a good movie. Eye-opening... Not an existential crisis. Just an existential brain aneurysm. Then we talked for forty minutes about how tough our lives are gonna be. Yay!

I can see Cologne, Germany from my house...
Movement: 25 minutes
I ran for ten minutes... 1.6 miles (ish) and fifteen minutes of yoga/strength. Uh... I don't know. I didn't feel too good today. Didn't want to run too much. But the yoga made me feel better.
Voice: 20 minutes.
Sing your heart out, boy. Nothing special to report...
Denotative Analysis: 20 minutes
Instead of doing my reading out loud, every other day I'm going to do my denotative work for Midsummer. I did a good portion of the script today. Got up to Act Three.
Grade: 100
I sat in CAD all day and worked on my script... Is that 100-worthy? I hope so, because that's all that I was able to do with them splitting us up into different shops... Such bullshit. Whatever. I will survive. I fixed the endings on my two current scripts, so that's good. Yay good.

Anderson Cooper is my hero
Movement: 40 minutes
I RAN OUTSIDE TODAY! :D I spent about ten minutes doing Wii Fit yoga and then 30 minutes running around town. I thought I got lost but then came to realize that I was simply on a different street... Shut up, I'm not a loser. Running really feels great. I just get to think about stuff while I do it. I was thinking about my play the whole time.. How I could make the ending bolder. Anyway, yeah. Running.
Voice: 30 minutes
God damned facial tension. I thought I had made progress. I worked on that a lot today. My face felt like rubber by the end of it. I hit a new high note... I'm not sure what it was though. I'm gonna try to figure that out tomorrow.
Reading: The Why - 20 minutes
Haha. Remember this play? I really want to redo my monologue from it. See if I can. To be honest, I was a moron and had never read the play before doing my monologue freshman year... So, a lot more stuff in it makes sense now.
Grade: 100
We did monologues today, I was finally out of my head, my face was tense. It's a double whammy... If I think, my face is less tense. If I don't think, my face is very tense. I have to be able to do both. We also read Blood/Carbon and everyone gave me some pretty good feedback. Yeah... I'm stumped. I think I'm gonna put it down for a few days and go back to it.
Oh, speaking of writing, I entered Travis Tribbins Learns to Be A Man in this:
www.spfnyc.com
I read over the terms and conditions... Seems legit. And it was free to enter, so I thought, why the hell not.

The pain machine
Movement: 40 minutes
Yoga and balance for 10 minutes. Running for 30 minutes. Yay. 4.8 miles. Yay. Wii Fit. Yay. I miss running outside though. Once the weather gets warmer, I'll start doing it again... I hope. I don't know.
Voice: 20 minutes
Singing, warmups, facial tension... Story of my life.
Reading: Waiting for the Bus - 10 minutes
This is a play from that book... It's... okay. I think it may have gone over my head, so if that's true, it's probably a brilliant play. I'll try reading it again tomorrow.
Grade: 100
I deserve a 100 because I worked my monologue today and I felt really, really vulnerable while working Ari. It felt good but at the same time it felt horrible. It felt interesting, to say the least. But I think there was a pretty significant moment that improved the entire monologue. And I hope I can do that again.
