I dont know if anyone caught the oscars last night, but i did and im inspired to say the least. Seeing someone else standing exactly where you want to be is definitely a huge motivator, but at the same time its like man, some of these people are so much younger than me. That parts discouraging. A bunch of cool stuff from last year though, theres still a few huge films that were winners last night that ive yet to see, and i suppose i should get on that asap. I should get on a lot of things asap actually. Ive been reading a lot on the meisner method of acting. That man was a genius. Anyone who hasnt read "sanford Meisner on acting" and is trying to do anything in acting, whether its theater film tv whatever, is doing themselves a huge injustice until they've read it. It will definitely make you think about things in a different way, and it just makes sense. The acting agency im with is actually about to start picking up new talent, which also means they are going to be dropping old talent. So while ive only been with them for a short time, i havent really booked anything just yet, so i hope they give me some time. Lots to worry about, and none of it i can have an impact on just yet. In other acting news, im still rehearsing for a film shooting this summer called "The Iron Princess" its gonna be pretty amazing if it turns out well, and im really pumped to at least be working on something again. I hate sitting around and being stagnate.
As im sitting here writing this, multiple parts of my body are hurting haha. Dana, my brother, and I went to a place in north arkansas called Haw Creek to go climbing. What started out as a rainy lame day ended up being an awesome time. We got there an all of the rocks were soaked. and not like oh they are a little damp. I mean SOAKED. Putting your hands in a puddle 50 feet off the ground is not a good feeling, so things started a little rough. We climbed a few cool routes and then ended up hiking to this big waterfall and repelling beside it. It was amazing. I took some photos throughout the day that ill post below. Overall though the trip was awesome. I think i had more fun than the other two, but i just enjoyed being out and about and separated from my normal brain for a minute. I can never stop thinking about things i need to do, or things that im slacking on, or places i should be by now and it drives me insane. It seems like the only place that i dont worry about any of that is when im outside crushing. haha well not exactly crushing. Outside anyways, im a big chicken. I crush at the gym, I chicken out a lot outside but im working on it.
At some point in the day the pointed end of a rock fell and hit me right in the ankle. My ankle literally in less than 5 seconds looks like it swallowed a golf ball. It didnt really hurt so im thinking, "holy crap! did i just chip something but cant feel it" but my brother was like "you idiot its just a busted blood vessel" Well excuuuuuse me. Im one of those guys thats like "look at my scar" (you know the ones im talking about) so i was fairly excited to have a huge lump and no pain. haha. It was a fun day
Hope everyone has a good day! And feel free to comment or ask any questions you might have.
