Miss me?

So hey, whats up? I haven't added a new blog since the last brief Steppenwolf note. I am so excited about this summer! It is going to be hard work, but so worth it. I am really looking forward to growing and learning with a talented group of actors. Does that sound artificial? Well it is true so fuck off.

Seeing as I can't work this summer, I've been doing all I can this month. Added two residencies to my teaching schedule, each very challenging. Finishing up the original musical I've been working on with the 8th graders of Hawthorne. The story might be a little flimsy, but the music is great! And the students are wonderful there. I really enjoy them. Preparing to do two one acts in the beginning of June, performing improv every Thursday (at Gorilla Tango) and Friday (at the Cornservatory) with Strippers Picnic, doing the band thing (we have a show on Saturday). So my next full day off where I really have nothing to do is on May 29th. I really look forward to that day. But I like staying busy. It will be nice to be able to focus on acting this summer. Wow, I'm really excited!

Also, I start 5b on Saturday at iO. I am really looking forward to completing my training there. It will feel good to finish it, regardless of what happens team wise. Unfortunately, there is all this crazy drama with people in my level. Luckily, I am completely removed from it. But it makes me uncomfortable because it seems like people really dig on that, real life drama. Lame. I'll just keep pushing forward, keeping my distance, focusing on the work. Thats the fun part.

Do you enjoy going home? I really do. I spent the day at my folks house last week and it was so relaxing. Its so clean and comfy. Its like going to a spa. With people who are there to love and support you. Without being paid. I'm glad they are only a car ride away. My family is pretty amazing. I'm excited to have my little bro around this summer. Because he is the coolest.

Pointless blog. But just felt like writing something new.
