Vibing Verbs...

Another day, another workshop. Today was more of the same. First we did some warm up exercises, and then we did some improv. Today in the improv we were working with "verbs". Pleading, charming, attacking... The thing with "verbs" is they are so easy to relate to, because we do them everyday. Verbs made the improv so easy because it was so organic, and natural. It felt so real, which was once again so freaky, but so amazing!

Mad Cool...

Today we did improv again and this time I was in a group with Giandri and Shiana. In the improv, they where in the cool gang at school and I wanted to join. When I asked if I could join they turned me down because I wasn't cool enough. At first I was just pleading with them, acting all desperate, but when Giandri started to insult me I began to get defensive, and before I knew it I was "slapping" her and screaming at her and cursing (all things I really never do). I got so into it. I was actually mad at her! It was amazing. It was funny, everyone was so surprised because I'm never like that... I guess that's why they call it acting.
