1:00pm to 4:00pm Okay, today I had my absolutely best kick ass day in acting class. I can not believe how good I did today. I'm not just saying this. I actually got 5 congrats from Nick Conti. FIVE! I have never even gotten 1 in a class without some critic. I had FIVE in a row. Actors called me afterwards and came up to me to congratulate me. I think it was a decision I made before going in to class today. I decided that I would just go for it and give my all. I had always held back before. I was always better on film and on the set then in class. But not today! Today, I know I rocked. In fact, Nick Conti gave me a $25.00 off gift certificate toward next months classes. What a day
