So I gave up my coffee creamer today. Usually I get upset if I go to have coffee and am out of creamer. However, since I gave it up voluntarily or should I say I was volun-told (by Shannon my Professor), I wasn't thrown in to a shabtastic (shabby) mood. I drank my black coffee like I was back in Afghanistan. It was good. I probably should leave the sugar-filled creamer out my life! BUT....it taste soooo gooood! Something I will have to contemplate further.
This morning along with my black coffee I ate a PB&J and also ate one for lunch. For some reason they have been extra tasting since my acting class started. Maybe it's the discovery of the honey flavored PB!?!?! Probably. Anyways, I'm looking forward to my sammich after yoga on Monday:) My wife made yellow rice, chicken and beans for dinner. Thanks babe!
Ok so reading my monologue from Empire, I'm digging it. I like that I get to play a business man in the business of drugs in NYC who is latino as I am also latino and born in Brooklyn. If you haven't seen the movie, I encourage you to see it. It's one of my faves along with A Bronx Tale. Now to memorize it. This may be very challenging as I do have mTBI from Afghanistan. I'm sure I will pull it off.
(Class Specific)

Goal- A warning.
Other- Himself
Tactic- Pleading
Expectation- For the audience or his child to not make the same mistakes as he did to meet the same fate.
I was asked to monitor what things or foods effect my baseline. Well, after yoga and gym time I feel at my best. No lie after a great pump I feel like I can run through brick walls. The yoga is quite relaxing for me. Although Shannon does a meditation exercise to try to rid us of any foreign contaminant of the mind, Lt. Benjamin Keating never leaves. If you don't know who this true American Hero is then look him up.
