Today was my first long day, at school from 8:30am-9:30pm. It was indeed, long.
However, it was also my first day of my Acting I class which was fun! I’ve never taken an official “acting class” I’ve just been part of the drama club at my high school in which we just learned what we needed to to put on the production we were doing that year. I did do that for four years though so I hope I remember a few things (it was already three or four years ago now, dear me, I’m getting old…)
It seems like it’s going to be a fun class. It’s not going to be easy, and I’m going to certainly need to step out of my comfort zone. Today was mostly just going over the syllabus and playing some “get to know you” games. We did trust falls off chairs. I’m not afraid of height but backwards trust falls off chairs into the arms of strangers is slightly nerve-racking – still fun! =)
We also are going to go see a play at the Manitoba Theatre Centre next month so that’s fun! We’re going to go see a play called Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike at it seems like it could be interesting. I’ve never heard of it before this year (Des and I saw it when we were scouting out the plays at MTC but weren’t planning on seeing this one so that works out as the cost is covered in my tuition for this class so I can pretend I’m getting to go for free!)
So anywho, by the end of this semester I should ideally be a better actor so I’m looking forward to that, I do love acting =)
Mum’s coming home tomorrow! See ya then,
