kinda got sick today. it was frustrating. because i was visiting jasmine in sioux falls, and i really couldn't do anything, because i was sick. so i slept a lot, and then slept some more. i did go and watch the play that she is doing lights for this week last night. it was ok. really slow moving. i was pretty bored actually. the premise was interesting. it follows fours guys who are mentally challenged in a group home. i couldn't tell if the directing/acting was bad, or if the writing was just bad. i think the acting was a little lacking--pretty slow. mind you i did see a rehearsal, but it felt really long. some of the actors were fun to watch and listen to, but some were the kind of hard to watch, the kind when you feel bad for them or embarassed because they don't exactly know their lines. i get the feeling that the play will be better when they get the kinks worked out for actual performances, but in general it was lacking for me. nothing really profound in the writing or execution.
i don't think i've realized that i'm staying here for the summer. it feels like i'm on vacation. a small time away, before i start working again. but it does look like i'll be able to do some film/video work for a good portion of the summer. not really fiction stuff, more class and dordt stuff, either way i'll beable to use a camera and edit, which is what i like to do.
well, that's what i'm up to, and what i have pending.
