Remember a couple weeks ago when I told<br \/>\nyou that my best friend &#8211; one of my very<\/p>\n<p>2<br \/>\n00:00:05,650 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:11,200<br \/>\nbest friends in the world &#8211; was applying<br \/>\nfor a PhD in Philosophy and she sent me<\/p>\n<p>3<br \/>\n00:00:11,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:19,340<br \/>\nher application essay?

I&#8217;m SO excited. So anyway &#8211; shout out &#8211; I&#8217;m not<\/p>\n<p>7<br \/>\n00:00:37,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:41,800<br \/>\ngonna say your name out loud because you<br \/>\nmay not want me to, but I&#8217;m so proud of<\/p>\n<p>8<br \/>\n00:00:41,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:44,030<br \/>\nyou and I love you so much!<\/p>\n<p>9<br \/>\n00:00:44,030 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:49,280<br \/>\nCongratulations. Last weekend Mama Trudy<br \/>\nand I went to go see this great play<\/p>\n<p>10<br \/>\n00:00:49,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:56,500<br \/>\ncalled <a href=\"http:\/\/www.susanito.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">&#8220;The Ice Cream Gene&#8221; by Susan<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.susanito.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Ito<\/a> and it is about the trans-racially<\/p>\n<p>11<br \/>\n00:00:56,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:03,239<br \/>\nadopted experience. And the play starts<br \/>\noff when Susan is meeting her<\/p>\n<p>12<br \/>\n00:01:03,239 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:07,590<br \/>\nbirth mother for the first time. So<br \/>\nalready there&#8217;s all this tension at the<\/p>\n<p>13<br \/>\n00:01:07,590 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:14,640<br \/>\ntop of the play &#8211; and I&#8217;m like,&#8221;I understand that &#8211; what it feels like to have<br \/>\ntension in the top of your play. So &#8211; do<\/p>\n<p>14<br \/>\n00:01:14,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:18,310<br \/>\nyou do this when you&#8217;re watching another<br \/>\nperformer at the top of a play &#8211; you&#8217;re just<\/p>\n<p>15<br \/>\n00:01:18,310 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:24,320<br \/>\nfeeling like all the feels &#8211; everything<br \/>\nthey&#8217;re going through at that moment &#8211; so<\/p>\n<p>16<br \/>\n00:01:24,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:29,159<br \/>\nmuch pressure but that&#8217;s how she starts the<br \/>\nshow and then she takes us on the<\/p>\n<p>17<br \/>\n00:01:29,159 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:34,460<br \/>\njourney of finding her birth mother and<br \/>\nit&#8217;s so moving and touching. So if it<\/p>\n<p>18<br \/>\n00:01:34,460 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:40,600<br \/>\ncomes near you anywhere, I&#8217;ll put a<a href=\"http:\/\/www.susanito.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"> link<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.susanito.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">to her website<\/a> and her information &#8211; go<\/p>\n<p>19<br \/>\n00:01:40,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:46,299<br \/>\nsee it.

OK so I think I told<br \/>\nyou about Lilah Greenberg who has come<\/p>\n<p>20<br \/>\n00:01:46,299 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:51,540<br \/>\non to help us book<a href=\"http:\/\/www.onedropoflove.com\" target=\"_blank\"> One Drop of Love<\/a> and<br \/>\nshe&#8217;s amazing.

She has sent out a bunch<br \/>\nof emails both to new places to kind of<\/p>\n<p>23<br \/>\n00:02:02,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:07,280<br \/>\npitch the show and also doing outreach<br \/>\nto people in Mesa.

In Tempe, Arizona so<\/p>\n<p>33<br \/>\n00:02:51,260 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:57,090<br \/>\nI&#8217;ll give you details on that. I just &#8211; I<br \/>\nwant to say how much I love working with<\/p>\n<p>34<br \/>\n00:02:57,090 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:02,220<br \/>\nwomen. I love men and there a lot of<br \/>\nmen that I really really love and I<\/p>\n<p>35<br \/>\n00:03:02,220 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:08,639<br \/>\nrespect and I think are great but I just &#8211;<br \/>\nI guess there&#8217;s something incredible and<\/p>\n<p>36<br \/>\n00:03:08,639 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:14,480<br \/>\nmoving about working with women because<br \/>\nI think we are not always expected to<\/p>\n<p>37<br \/>\n00:03:14,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:19,739<br \/>\ntake charge especially in the business sense<br \/>\nand then really make things happen and<\/p>\n<p>38<br \/>\n00:03:19,739 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:25,139<br \/>\nseeing how much these two women<br \/>\nare working on behalf of the show &#8211; which<\/p>\n<p>39<br \/>\n00:03:25,139 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:31,760<br \/>\nalso means working on behalf of social<br \/>\njustice, on behalf of encouraging people<\/p>\n<p>40<br \/>\n00:03:31,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:38,069<br \/>\nto share their stories and melding<br \/>\nhistory, historical context, all together<\/p>\n<p>41<br \/>\n00:03:38,069 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:43,329<br \/>\nwith sharing your story it&#8217;s just amazing and<br \/>\nI feel so grateful to have them and to<\/p>\n<p>42<br \/>\n00:03:43,329 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:50,120<br \/>\nbe working with them. So: shout out to<br \/>\nWOMEN! Work with women if you haven&#8217;t, I<\/p>\n<p>43<br \/>\n00:03:50,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:54,829<br \/>\nhighly recommend it. Alright I wanna talk to<br \/>\nyou about your Day Job. So if you<\/p>\n<p>44<br \/>\n00:03:54,829 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:59,970<br \/>\ndon&#8217;t know, if you&#8217;re not an artivist or an<br \/>\nactor or performer a lot of us obviously we<\/p>\n<p>45<br \/>\n00:03:59,970 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:04,750<br \/>\nhave to pay the bills and you will<br \/>\nwithout question when you&#8217;re starting<\/p>\n<p>46<br \/>\n00:04:04,750 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:10,139<br \/>\noff and for a very long time and perhaps<br \/>\nforever you will have to do something<\/p>\n<p>47<br \/>\n00:04:10,139 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:16,019<br \/>\nthat is not directly acting related in<br \/>\norder to survive. And so a lot of actors<\/p>\n<p>48<br \/>\n00:04:16,019 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:19,519<br \/>\nI know work in restaurants,<\/p>\n<p>49<br \/>\n00:04:19,519 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:24,379<br \/>\nthey&#8217;re bartenders, hosts and I&#8217;ve done<br \/>\nsome of that too, but I also have to say<\/p>\n<p>50<br \/>\n00:04:24,379 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:31,379<br \/>\nthat I probably have well I&#8217;m biased but<br \/>\nI think one of the best possible Day<\/p>\n<p>51<br \/>\n00:04:31,379 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:37,490<br \/>\nJobs for an actor which is that I teach<br \/>\nESL. I teach at a community college<\/p>\n<p>52<br \/>\n00:04:37,490 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:44,990<br \/>\nnearby and it is so incredibly rewarding.<br \/>\nMy students are from all over. The area<\/p>\n<p>53<br \/>\n00:04:44,990 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:50,069<br \/>\nwhere I teach is predominantly Armenian,<br \/>\nso a lot of them are Armenian; we also recently<\/p>\n<p>54<br \/>\n00:04:50,069 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:58,440<br \/>\nhave a huge influx of Syrian students<br \/>\nand working with them makes me<\/p>\n<p>55<br \/>\n00:04:58,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:03,470<br \/>\nconstantly grateful for the life that I<br \/>\nhave and the life that I&#8217;m able to<\/p>\n<p>56<br \/>\n00:05:03,470 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:08,590<br \/>\nchoose knowing what they are coming from<br \/>\nand knowing what they&#8217;ve experienced in<\/p>\n<p>57<br \/>\n00:05:08,590 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:13,469<br \/>\ntheir countries and their reasons behind<br \/>\nneeding to come here. Also I love that<\/p>\n<p>58<br \/>\n00:05:13,469 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:19,530<br \/>\nthey don&#8217;t give a crap about Hollywood.<br \/>\nAnd as much as I will admit that there<\/p>\n<p>59<br \/>\n00:05:19,530 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:28,340<br \/>\nare &#8211; in many ways I am driven by<br \/>\ngetting validation from this system that<\/p>\n<p>60<br \/>\n00:05:28,340 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:32,960<br \/>\non sometimes I hate and sometimes I<br \/>\nwant to be a part of because I want to<\/p>\n<p>61<br \/>\n00:05:32,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:37,270<br \/>\nchange it, I love that when I walk into<br \/>\nthat classroom and I say something like,<\/p>\n<p>62<br \/>\n00:05:37,270 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:44,199<br \/>\nDid anybody hear about this &#8220;OscarsSoWhite&#8221; and they&#8217;re like, &#8220;We don&#8217;t<br \/>\nknow. We don&#8217;t care. We need to feed our<\/p>\n<p>63<br \/>\n00:05:44,199 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:49,979<br \/>\nchildren. It&#8217;s refreshing to be reminded<br \/>\nthat there are more important things<\/p>\n<p>64<br \/>\n00:05:49,979 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:55,279<br \/>\nthan just being considered for an Oscar<br \/>\nmuch more important things. They&#8217;re just<\/p>\n<p>65<br \/>\n00:05:55,279 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:00,270<br \/>\nbeautiful people not to mention by the<br \/>\nway I highly recommend this job &#8211; so I teach<\/p>\n<p>66<br \/>\n00:06:00,270 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:05,380<br \/>\nEnglish as a Second Language. It is a<br \/>\nperfect job for theater actors because<\/p>\n<p>67<br \/>\n00:06:05,380 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:10,719<br \/>\nfirst of all my classes 55 students so I<br \/>\nhave to project. It&#8217;s a huge class.<\/p>\n<p>68<br \/>\n00:06:10,719 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:16,680<br \/>\nI have to protect my voice. I also am<br \/>\nperforming for &#8211; the class is three hours<\/p>\n<p>69<br \/>\n00:06:16,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:20,440<br \/>\nin this session &#8211; three and a half hours in the<br \/>\nlonger sessions, and so I am performing<\/p>\n<p>70<br \/>\n00:06:20,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:25,880<br \/>\nthe whole time &#8211; which means I have to make the class entertaining. So<\/p>\n<p>71<br \/>\n00:06:25,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:27,710<br \/>\nI&#8217;m using my skills of being<\/p>\n<p>72<br \/>\n00:06:27,710 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:34,280<br \/>\nan entertaining energetic<br \/>\nperson to get this lesson across and I<\/p>\n<p>73<br \/>\n00:06:34,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:38,850<br \/>\nhave to say there is no question in my<br \/>\nmind that that has been incredibly<\/p>\n<p>74<br \/>\n00:06:38,850 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:44,130<br \/>\nhelpful for me thinking about how to<br \/>\nkeep the audience interested how to have<\/p>\n<p>75<br \/>\n00:06:44,130 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:48,840<br \/>\nthe audience interact within the play<br \/>\nand feel like they are part of this<\/p>\n<p>76<br \/>\n00:06:48,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:54,120<br \/>\njourney that were going on. So I&#8217;m so<br \/>\ngrateful for that job. It&#8217;s really<\/p>\n<p>77<br \/>\n00:06:54,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:00,620<br \/>\ntruly I feel so incredibly fortunate for<br \/>\nthat to be my &#8220;Day Job.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>78<br \/>\n00:07:00,620 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:04,540<br \/>\nOK whooo here&#8217;s the hard thing about being an artivist &#8211; we talked about<\/p>\n<p>79<br \/>\n00:07:04,540 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:06,310<br \/>\nmarketing which is really hard<\/p>\n<p>80<br \/>\n00:07:06,310 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:10,220<br \/>\nthe other thing is being a<br \/>\nbusinessperson.
