I attended the S.T.R.I.V.E Elevate U virtual session. It was great, we had a discussion about the importance of taking control of your decisions and the path you can take when you prioritize your expectations instead of others.
I attended the Promise Academic Recovery Session. I was reintroduced to S.T.R.I.V.E and reminded of the requirements to maintain my scholarship. Always helpful and I feel confident I can still follow these rules.
I attended the S.T.R.I.V.E virtual kickoff. I got some updates about this semester's events and some helpful. guidance. I look forward to being able to attend these intriguing events this time.
This has been a helpful refresh as always. I feel very confident about going into this school year!
This mini session that receiving a D is wy better than withdrawing from a class entirely. Even with a less-than-stellar final grade in one class, its points along with your stronger grades in others can combine to make a strong enough GPA to stay in good standing with the scholarship.
Hearing about the issues between the website version and the app version of GivePulse made me nervous so I attended to make sure I input my hours correctly. This session reassured me I'm still using it correctly.
This Scholarship meeting was helpful as always, the quick quiz questions always keeps me engaged. I left feeling satisfied with the information given.
I acted in the 2nd show of Our Town in one day. The general audience were a lot more responsive than the earlier one. They were laughing at every joke and interaction between our character. It was a full house and while I was running out of the trellises after the breakfast scene, the second I glanced at the audience they were all smiling. I took that as an indicator I was doing well at establishing the close feel of the Webbs.
As Wally in Our Town, I acted in 4 shows. 2 of them were in one day this time. One for a high-school and the other for the general public
I feel like it really prepared me for an actual workday as a Broadway Actor, where they have morning and evening matinee with little breaks in between. I felt so official. High schoolers were actually calmer and quieter than the other shows, which I found interesting. It showed me that no audiences are the same, the reaction varies. I guess that's why theater is considered ephemeral.
I played Wally in this semester's production of Our Town. I wasn't sure if I had a lot to do initially due to having little lines; but just being able to add to the scene through little interactions with my castmates made it more fun. When I "died" the audience actually reacted with sadness. This really solidified the importance of small roles in my mind.
