Today we decided to meet at prilaman hall to have one last rehearsal. We ran through the script and everything went smoothly. I am confident about tomorrow.

Today we all met up at class and then from there we went to a really big room to do more blocking. We also did more with the emotions of the characters and how their lines are suppose to be said. We also tried on our costumes. TOGA !

I have memorized all my lines completely. I feel very proud of myself. I hope everyone has all their lines down by the day of the presentation.

This is the day we agreed to be off script. Not everyone showed up which is really frustrating. I have most of my lines down.

Today we did blocking and we worked on the script some more. I was uncomfortable because I had to speak with anger and I am not good at that.

So we got an extra hour of sleep today which made my day. I met up with my girlfriend and asked her if she could help me with the lines. I still could not get down the first page because they are long monologues. I have the second page down, I think.

So today I read through the script by myself and tried to memorize as many of my lines as I could. I even recorded myself saying them. It was about a 4 minute long recording. I am still not confident.

We began this rehearsal by meeting up in class and we basically read through the script. I was intimidated because of all the lines I had. We met up at the very front of the room which made me a tad bit uncomfortable.

This is an example post, originally published as part of Blogging University. Enroll in one of our ten programs, and start your blog right.

You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.

Why do this?

• Because it gives new readers context. What are you about? Why should they read your blog?
• Because it will help you focus you own ideas about your blog and what you’d like to do with it.

The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.

To help you get started, here are a few questions:

• Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
• What topics do you think you’ll write about?
• Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
• If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?

You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.

Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.

When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
