Eff that.
No more could, should, or would. From now on there is only what will or will not happen.
It is summer. I will be updating this at least every Thursday. Thursday is blog day.
There will be pictures. There will be original material.
I will post at least one video per week to the internet. These will be either original things I make with my friends, or old things I've done that aren't on the internet yet. These will be posted Mondays. Monday is video day. Today doesn't count, but I will have something by the end of the week.
I will write a minimalist one-act before the school year begins. For those of you who don't know (all none of you) I am highly involved in student-run theater at my school. I have had an original one-act performed every year since 2007 and this year will be no different. By minimalist I mean no costumes or set. Everyone will sit in chairs and wear whatever they have on that day. I don't know what it will be about, but it will be written by August 29.
Beginning this school year, I will be doing not only Pseudo improv comedy, but a new comedy group project. This will involve Max, Andrew, Jason, Sophie, Ryan and JoeCox. More people will want to be involved because we are awesome. I give Max credit for this one. He is the one who sent out the mass text message saying how awesome everyone is and that we should totally be doing comedy because it is awesome. This is a great idea. It was also a great idea a year ago when "Robot Presidents" was born. It has also been a great idea every summer since high school. This year it will cease to be a great idea. It will be a great reality. We will meet once a week (the day depends on schedules. I can't plan absolutely everything). We will post a video at least once every other week. Most likely Sunday. Again, this depends on unforeseen schedules.
We will not do anything through the school. Doing things through the school involves red tape. You have to get the approval of lots of people before you can do anything.
Relying on others only becomes an excuse not to get anything done.
Last year, there was a little campus improv group called Rhymes With Orange. It died. It died because no one wanted to take charge. Everyone wanted to be involved and say "that's a swell idea" but nobody wanted to do anything about it. Also, our performances interfered with STAGE meetings. Also, because we had performances at Area 51 on Thursday night and nobody would show up without heavy advertising. Also, we had scheduled auditions, but they were blizzard'd out, and I was busy that week and nobody cared enough, including me, to reschedule everything and make it work.
This is me choosing to make things work now. Things will happen.
