I walked by on Broadway and actually walked into the Sex and the City photoshoot. I apperently missed Sarah Jessica Parker by like two seconds. But I saw the set.



then I walked into Union Square and I took some picture of the square and the Green Market that comes on the weekends.



























Today I woke up around 12:30 and got some lunch. I saw Aiden (a kid from Adler) there and since he always seemed really sweet i invited him to sit with me. I also saw Riteesh (Adler) and Roberto (strasburg) whom are roomies that I bump into from time to time. They sat down and we had a few laughs. It was odd: me and three straight guys. That doesn't happen alot, if ever.

I got dressed and Patricia (whom I always call P and will from now refer to her as that), Fabi, Lindsay and I went to a museum. It was the Museum of Sex. Hm.

Well then, ahh.... haha. Um we all took alot of pictures that I don't feel like are appropriate to post. It was divided into three sections: different types of Kink or Fetishes. Sex in film. and the history of sex education, toys and bondage. The Kink section was quite mind opening. I learn alot of subset of kink that I wasn't familiar with. the moving picture exhibit was really fascinating. I'm not going to go in depth here. It was an interesting set up though. It was in one room and the screen were placed all around. It was dark except for the screen (which illuminated the room alot actually). But it was werid sitting next to random stranger watching a thing on sex. Random japanese tourists, old married french couple, gay guys from chelsea, and us college students. What a mix. In the history of sex part we saw some really funnny things. Like sex ed videos from the 70's. Very funny. And old pornographic picture from like the 1890's.



Afterwards we went through the street fair on Park avenue right outside Union Square. I tried this really interesting thing. It was two patties of sweet corn mill fried and then they melt a cheese inbetween. It was really yummy. The name started with a P. Then I couldn't resist when we walked by a candy apple stand. I pick up a stick of chocolate covered marshmallows and chocolate covered bananas.

Then P and I walked by the Green Market and headed back. Evelyn came over. We rehearsed for an hour then got sidetracked. Lindsay picked up a movie (it was movie night). I choose Tristan and Isolde as the girls have never seen that before. They all liked it.

The rest of my weekend:

Sunday:

Eye appoitment.
Dinner with Dylan
yoga with Dylan
maybe go to a bar with studio friends

Monday:

Pedicure at 10:30
Actor's Studio with Dylan at 12:00 (Halle Berry)
Rehearsal with Evelyn from 4:30 to 7:30

And somewhere in between all that I have to do my homework. Like now I guess. So I'll upload the pictures and call it a day.

Adler Day

Today I felt really crappy. I didn't sleep well and I feel fat and I hurt. But that's life. I woke up at 8:30. Went to Adler. Did voice, ballet, lunched by myself, adler technique (porch exersice), and then scene study (which was a hoot with open scenes). Afterwards Evelyn and I went to the NYU costume loan center and picked out some costumes for our Chekhov piece (I'll get someone to take a picture of us before we have to return them). I also got a sneak peak at the Galileo csotumes they are making. They are beautiful and decadent. Whoosh!

Last night I gathered all my vitamin waters and we did a lil photoshoot:

Today

Today was super long. As predicted. But in a good way. It's draining but it's cool. Movement wasn't crazy like some other days, Adler kept me awake and active unlike other days, lunch at Palladium via the subway, scene study (I did my three entrance scenes that Alice deemed okay but mediocre which was to be expected because she scares me and I wanted to play it safe), then Improv (we did mirrors, I was with Gus, then we did these improv scenes with camera/focus changes: I was with Seth and Jen and we did a scene as musicians on the Titanic as it was sinking and I couldn't stop laughing, Evelyn Emily and Rafie did a love triangle scene at a wake, Gus and Katie were on Survivor, Scarlett Arianna and Shae were in prison and the other one I don't remember cause it wasn't very funny I guess), and then voice and speech class which I deemed my best one ever because my voice was really deep and strong and I projected well.
Then I followed Evelyn back to her dorm and we read through the first half of our scene a bunch-o-times. We are going to check out some costumes in the NYU costume shop tomorrow (apperantly it's really hard for kids to rent those costumes but because ETW kids are right there its a breeze for them so we are borrowing some of evelyn's friends to rent some costumes, this is what rocks about having a second year partner). And tomorrow night we are going to rehearse here at my dorm for about an hour (we have already put three hours in, change you believe that?). We are finally going to put it on it's feet. I love working with Evelyn because she takes it as seriously as I do. Which I'm sure the other scene partners do but of course I'm me so I deem mine the best. Right now I'm soooooooooooooooo drained and have a lot of work to do. So I'm going to go eat some chocolate cake and get to work on my butt load of homework that I put off doing yesterday.

Diet, Diet, Diet, Diet Coooooooooooooooooke

So this past weekend was pretty awesome. I went home on Saturday. The flight is only like a half a day of traveling so there is still time to do stuff when you get to Virginia. I went to Schlosky's (sp?) and then said hi to the puppies. Mom made me mac and cheese and cabbage. It was really comforting just being there. I really needed that. I really really needed that.





I got a massage by request of mom and my voice teacher. I then went to Sarah Robo's 18th birthday party. It was fun surprising everyone. Haley and Kai were by far the funniest.





Sunday I woke up and went to the doctor's office. Apperently, I don't have a sty on my eye, it's actuallly a growth of some kind. I'm going to probably have to get it cut off or removed somehow. Fuuuuuun. Mom has a recommendation of a lady I'm suppose to go see. Hopefully she will be avaliable this weekend.





Then we went to Bravo's which was so nice. Then momma took me shopping!!!! We went to Ann Taylor Loft, and Macy's, and Dillard's, TARGET! and Victoria's Secret, it was great. I got a bunch of really cool stuff. I wore one of my new dresses today.





I really really really really really didn't want to leave. It was so hard. I needed about four more days of just being there. But I had classes today.





The plane was delayed an hour and then we had to sit on the ground for an hour but I got at the dorm around ten thirty so it was all cool. I wrote my first draft of my big essay for my writing class and went to bed around 3:30 this morning.





After class today I went to the book store and got my mom a copy of a book she was looking for and a t-shirt for dad. I went grocery shopping. Grabbed some lunch and hung out with Jewlie for about two hours. Something is screwy with my card though. It didn't work when I went to get dinner but they let me in anyway.





I'm in the middle of doing laundry (my whites) and I have to try and finish up my homework.





On the agenda:


Rehersal Weds, Thurs, Fri, and Sat with Evelyn


Conference with Roberts on Weds


Gym and Pedicure (hopefully) on Sat


Movie night with the girls on Sat





I have a feeling this will be a long week. Not in the "ugh" high school long week sort of way. It's just going to be alot of non-enjoyable work.





Pictures:





Channing Tadem on the streets outside of Adler filming a Terence Howard movie called Fighting.

A bird inside of the terminal of JFK.
