I’m taking this acting class at my local community college, and my teacher is so abrasive in his techniques that on the first day of class he laid out a mat in the middle of the room and made us stand in a circle. One by one, he ordered us to either lay on it and pretend to be a dying fish out of water gasping for water or drop his class…

It’s the 4th week into the class now and I learned so much about myself that I didn’t think I was capable of. The idea of social boundaries and limitations never really affected me until after high school for some strange reason, it sounds backwards. I didn’t get shy until my second year of college ha. But this class is starting to reverse that for me. This man is making me feel like I can do anything, by being one of the strongest willed assholes I have ever had as a teacher.

Thank you Mr. Majarian for reminding me that people really do sell themselves shorter than they should. You are a real nigga.
