I am tired from last night. My muscles in my lower legs are feeling this one. My only prayer is that we have a less hectic rehearsal process this evening. I think rehearsal is going well for the most part, but it's just tough dealing with everything all happening at once. I'm still going to give it my 100%, but I'm just tired and hope I can make it all happen.

Movement[-->]
I know it's been awhile, but this is just the product of stress and too much to do.
Today we did the thing we did in acting one again. I must admit I had a hard time with this exercise in class for some reason, but as time moved on and I tried it again today...I think I kinda got the hang of it. I stood and attempted to clear my mind(something that is almost impossible for a dreamer, but i thought I'd humor my mind and try it anyway) and said the character's name. I repeated it over and over again while trying to shake out and take on whatever characteristics came to me. One must be careful not to let emotions drive the character kinda like saying, "the character is sad so i need to put on this motion' but I moved according to how my body made sense of the word. I was portraying tartuffe and the words, "evil, liar, elegance, smooth, hustler' came into my mind, and I could feel my body changing. It was good. I think i did well. Don't let the words allow you to put on the actions, but let the words form the actions.
