literally my last class

Well the semester is almost over and who would of thought that this would be the last class I ever take as an undergrad in college it's fucking surreal excuse my french. Amanda and I have been working on our final scene and i think it has potential to be the best cuz i'm the best. with a few more pointers from Fabio we should be good see you guys in a couple of minutes!

class

I think it is safe to say that this week has kicked my butt. I have not really been sleeping well at all. I think my only saving grace is being able to come to acting!!!!!! But seriously I love this class and I am sad to see it go. hope to see you all around campus for the remainder of school.

Love, Peace and Chicken Grease

yyyeeeeeaaaa bbboooyyyyyy

GRADUATION

Graduation is only about a week away and i am beyond ready to get out of this school. I had to fight for the University to let me walk in May commencement though because 3 freaking credits shy. Isn't that some bullshit! But i won the argument and now all you peeps can come see me strut across the stage. :) Oh yeah i will miss this class and all the cool people acting a fool as well.
Like everyone else, I too will miss this class. I may miss classes in general, graduating and going into the real world might be worse than any class I've ever taken. I just hope this has all gotten me ready for it. There won't be many times that I can "forget" assignments and not be reprimanded like in school, with a slap on the wrist. Saying that, I'm ready for finals to be over, and graduate to get out of here. It's been fun, but I just need out now. See you all in a bit.

Last Class

Like everyone else has already mentioned, this is our last class and its been a fun semester and I'm really going to miss this class as well as the people in the class. I learned a lot about acting and have even applyed some of the contents to everyday life. I'm really looking forward to next Thursday and seeing everyones final projects. See ya in class in a little while.

class

I wont be in class today because i have to attend an interview for and internship. I cant wait to see everyones finished product next thursday. See you then
I can't believe this is our last day of learning in this class. I'm sure we'll still be learning on the day of the exam, but today is our actual last day. This semester went so fast and I'm going to miss this class a lot. There is still so much more I want to learn and there's no more time. It seems so bizarre...
im gonna follow everyone elses lead and agree that i also cant beleive that we have one more class left...its been a fun semester and I learned alot, ij ust cant wait to get this final over and completed

It went well

I'm so glad that our scene went well on Tuesday because Amanada and I were so worried that it wouldn't go well at all. We were definitley relieved!

last class

i cant believe or last class is tomorrow and i especially cant believe that finals week is next week! ive really enjoyed this semester w/ everybody! i wish you all luck on all of ur finals and i cant wait for our final to see everybodys final scene!!!! see you tomorrow!

Last Class

Tomorrow is going to be the last acting class...time goes pretty fast. I haven't written my papers for the final yet, but I am working on them. I was just thinking that this year is almost over. There is one more week and that's it. I still don't know for sure what I am doing over the summer and I am really stressed about the five finals I'll have. It's not going to be easy but I'll be happy that very soon everything will be all over.
I think that as off topic as we got with the movies, it was actually a very interesting discussion. I would agree with Fabio in his analysis of man in that people will, more than not, gravitate to things that are not difficult. I am sure that there are times where I do that. I like the occasional Superbad, which truly is super bad. However, I do prefer the more difficult movies that make you think or at least force you to follow the story line. The last movie I saw was Day Zero. It was about the re-institution of the draft in 2012. It really is basically a snapshot of a period in several human beings' lives. It probably could be made into a one act or it at least has that same type of format. I would suggest to anyone to watch it.
Sorry I got so off topic Tuesday during the discussion. I really did enjoy talking about movies though. I'm really into movies, especially ones that aren't main stream. I love discussing and arguing movies too. I would love to go see more plays and other live productions, but being a poor college student doesn't really give you the budget for that kind of stuff. So I just stick with good old fashion dvds.

One Acts

In my opinion there are several important acting techniques that were displayed during the entirety of the One Act series. Since there was limited space on-stage compared to past performances at Ashland, I believe that the use of exiting and entering became extremely important. One major reason I believe that the entrances and exits were done extremely well, was because not only did they communicate to the audience where each actor had been, it also helped to "enlarge" the stage area. Through the entrances and exits it appeared that there was much more space than there actually was.
I really enjoyed attending the one acts last week. They were so funny it was refreshing. I appreciate that we take time in class to answer any lingering questions we have after we write our papers. The different topics we discuss and the viewpoints expressed from everyone in the class really help to expand my knowledge about theater in general.
