Silent Noise #1...

After googling Gregg Goldston, its pretty clear that this guy is one of the best and most accomplished mimes in the world, or simply just one of the coolest guys in the world (I cannot believe that I am going to have the chance to work with him!). Gregg Goldston has performed all over the world with various mime groups. He's even worked with the father of mime himself, Marcel Marceau. He's also been seen on Law and Order, The Daily Show and several TV commercials. He has held numerous workshops and summer intensives, and is now teaching at his own Studio for Mime and Comedy. He is currently in the middle of writing a book on mime choreography, and creating a 7-tape series on mime and physical comedy. 
I am so excited for tomorrow. It's going to be so much fun!

First blog of the new year, and I don't really know what to say. So much has happened this passed year, so much has changed. Even looking back a month or two ago, everything was so different. Sometimes it seems like nothing is the same. Don't get the wrong idea though. I'm happy things have changed, actually more than than happy. Much more. Things where good then, but they are great now. So, why wouldn't I be happy? There's just one thing, time. It's strange to think how numbers placed around a circle with two moving lines in the center can have so much power. It's not the fact that so much has changed, and it's not even the fact that it happened so quickly that scares me. It's how quickly it felt. You know the saying "time flies when you're having fun"? Well obviously that's just a figure of speech. It's impossible for time to speed up, or slow down, or even stand still (although sometimes we would like it to.) I think a more accurate saying would be "time feels like it flies when you're having fun". The thing is, you can feel time passing, you can even see it in a way, but you can't control it, and yet it has the power to control so much. Yes, it has the power to change a thursday into a friday, or make you late for an appointment, but that's not where it's true power lies. It's true power lies in it's ability to change us. Like I said before, I'm very happy with all the changes that have taken place over this past year, and I would be lying if I said I wasn't looking forward to all the changes that are going to take place this coming year, but I just wish that this year could last a little longer.
