I graduate in less than a month.
PG: 100. Today I deserve a 100 because this is the first legitimate class I've had in a month! It felt so good to have a teacher again (although I love Lou, I miss you :[) Asssskisss! haha, anyways. It also felt really good to do a monologue. I've done this monolgoue with two different arttisits, and it's really cool to see what direction each of them lead you in to still get an arch, but with a different outcome. I love the play Dog Sees God. I hope one day I can like, adapt it into a screenplay or even like, colobrate with Bert V. Royal.
Journal: I'm staying after to tech the dance show. Do I still need to write a review and/ or do journals?

Catch Me If You Can
PG: Today I deserve a 100 because I, along with the rest of the seniors pulled a pretty decent lesson plan out of our asses because we didn't have the movie to watch. There may have been some kind of miscommunication today because Javi didn't know if he was supposed to have the movie or what? So, hopefully everything will get worked out for tomorrow so this doesn't have to happen again.
So, We didn't watch All The President's Men today because we didn't have the movie. Instead, we... well, Matt gave the freshman a mini history lesson about the Watergate Scandal so that they have some information about the movie. After we finished that, we put on the movie "Catch Me If You Can" (Matt also had that with him) so we can give than an example of how to analytically look at a moive. We started them off nicely, so that they can do the same thing tomorrow.

It's already May...
...holy shit.
PG: Today I deserve a 100 because 1) I took the exit exam... cake. 2) I gave a film history lecture which to be honest, I was really unprepared for... I learned though. 3) After the freshman were gone Matt was teaching how to do autocad and I actually got some of it. Productive day, for sure.
Hmm... I gave my first "lecture" today. The one thing I love more than anything about being in this program besides the opportunities we're offered and the hands on experience we get is the chance to teach. By the end of senior year, you've directed... or tried too, and will have taught a class something. Although this year the circumstances are special, so the teaching is a little more than normal. But, it's such a learning expeierence. It just makes me feel like I have more of an edge... like, I almost have a one up in some ways on other kids, because I've taught something.
ALSO, because I know you will read this and my blackberry is dumb,
We'll stop and watch the movie... but before that we'll go over that slide one more time, just to make sure we're clear on somethings. And the slide show and Scorsese sounds great. I have a great book by Roger Ebert about criticism and his relationship with Scorsese. I can go through it one more time and if you would like I can bring it in and we can read some stuff?... Just text me or email me... I'll get it eventually :]
