Hey Abyss,
Still no sign of internet at my apartment yet. It is difficult to get down to the Bell Store with my schedule at school. It is definitely a goal this week to set up another appointment with the right address this time.
Due to my lack of internet I have to come to the school and get all I need to accomplish in one sitting, then go home.
The last few hours have been a compilation of emails and social networking as well as research and getting things in order.
I am currently updating my iPhone software, which is taking way longer than I anticipated.
I had an interview regarding Blackbird earlier today which was great and I am excited to read the article. I really need to learn how to talk in interviews though, I am painful at articulating my responses.
I am hoping the interviewer could sift through my gibber jabber.
School has been going well, we are currently doing a scene study on Problem Child by George F. Walker and Clybourne Park by Bruce Norris with Weyni Mengesha who is stunning (physically) and really inspiring. She is also quite pregnant and provides for some hilarious stories. I feel honoured to be working with her.
We are continuing to work with her for the next two weeks.
My Student Loan is still in process and I need to send a few more things in order to receive the money I need. I am hoping that it wont take much longer, as I am reaching the bottom of the barrel. I am sure I am not the only student in this situation, but it really stinks to be in it. Waiting on money, that is essentially not yours, just so you can eat.
Student Life.
I feel like this is great preparation for the life ahead of me as a actor.
I'll take it in stride.
Blackbird won three more awards last week at the Atlantic Film Festival and is currently playing at The Cinefest in Sudbury, Ontario.
The press related to the film has been stellar and I am so stoked to have been part of such a film. I hope it continues to garner great press.
It premiers in Canadian theatres on November 24th.
Here is some more press:

Stratford was a great experience. The amount of work that goes into every show was so inspiring. Every single person in that company is an asset and just as important as everyone else. I know it sounds naive, but you realize how small an actors job really is in a production. Whether it be theatre or film, the actor is just another piece of the puzzle that the director is putting together. I learned a lot over the weekend especially talking to Leah Doz and her last 8 months with the company.
If you have never been, I highly recommend it. The shows were phenomenal.
