So later in the day on Tuesday, Patrick asked the other intern and I if we wanted to go to a movie at the Arc Light on our lunch break so I was really excited because I heard a lot of cool things about the theater. However, we couldn't decide on a movie that none of us had already seen that fit into our time frame, so we didn't end up going :(
Wednesday was a pretty average day. The highlight of the day being, a girl I intern with on The Doctors has a sister that is a hair stylist so she cut my hair for cheap, and it looks really good! One of the best haircuts I have gotten since the lady we went to my entire childhood moved to North Carolina when I was in high school.
Thursday on The Doctors was an incredibly easy day. All three shows were light on guests, so we go out relatively early.
That night at class we read the first scenes of all of our scripts out loud. At first I was really nervous that mine sucked because I waited until the last minute to write it, but it went over fairly well. My faith in my writing was restored a little.
I was dreading Friday because we knew it was going to be extremely long with 4 shows packed full of guests. However, things went pretty smoothly! The little boy (who’s name is Max Page) dressed as Darth Vader and trying to use the force on everything from the car commercial that first aired during the Superbowl was on the ‘A’ show. However, the star of the day was Alicia Silverstone, who I got to pick up in the parking lot and drive to the stage. Little did I know, she is very pregnant, so I tried to drive as slow and carefully as possible….She was really nice though! She was on the show promoting the Kind Diet, which she is the face of.
Whenever we have celebs on the show, we order a flower arrangement to put in their dressing room for them to take home. However, Alicia left hers behind so when they do that someone in the talent or wardrobe department will take the arrangement home if we don't need it for someone else the next day. My boss asked me if I wanted to take hers, so we now have this beautiful flower arrangement sitting on our kitchen table. Thanks Alicia!
Yesterday, the ICLA program went to a Kings game. Even though our seats were at the very top in the last row, it was still a lot of fun. They ended up loosing to Vancouver, who we heard is the best team in the league, but it was close until the 3rd period and therefore still a good game to watch. The ICLA program was the group of the evening so a bunch of people got to go down and sit on the visitor’s bench during the break between the 2nd and 3rd period. They showed them on the screen, which was cool, but even cooler was the fact that a few members from the Glee cast (including Heather Morris, Cory Montieth, and Matthew Morrison) were sitting in the box seating right next to them! I didn’t care too much about being on the screen for all of 4 seconds, but I was pretty jealous I didn’t get to see some Gleeks up close!
That night four of us went to the 8 o’clock showing of Avenue Q that was at the Pantages theater for the national tour like Spring Awakening was. We all put our names in the lottery as usual, and my friend James actually won so he and I got seats in the front row! I heard a lot of good things about the show, so I had some pretty high expectations. Let me tell you, Avenue Q did not disappoint! It was hysterical and all the people in it were extremely talented, I couldn’t believe their ability to not only act, but have to show emotion through up to two puppets at a time! AMAZING!
We had to laugh because as we were standing in line for rush tickets we saw, Josh Sussman (from Glee) buying tickets in front of us. The joke of the evening was a hockey game & a musical with a side of Glee! Love seeing the cast members out in the 'wild'...haha
Today our other weekend program was a bonfire at Docweiler Beach, one of only two beaches in SoCal that has pits for bonfires. It was really fun, but we only stayed for a couple hours because it was pretty windy/cold and the beach is right next to LAX so loud planes kept flying over our heads every couple minutes. Other than that, it was another beautiful beach experience that you can only get in California!
Tonight I am going to a comedy show with some people at this comedy club called the United Citizens Brigade (or UCB). The show is called ‘Shitty Jobs’ and from what I have heard, it is extremely funny. They ask people in the audience what the shittiest job they have ever had is and do an improv set based off their answer so I am looking forward to that!
Also, a group of us are going to The Price is Right tomorrow so I am super excited! Hopefully someone from our group gets on, we are making t-shirts so we stand out a little more, haha!
